After the draft, Yang Xu immediately moved to New York.

Soak in the arena every day.

As a rookie, Yang Xu has no money to hire a coach, and the team is not equipped with special people to help Yang Xu train.

His training is simple, shooting in the morning, strength training in the afternoon, dribbling in the evening, and some foot training.

Previously, because of injuries, many training could not be carried out.

This can make Yang Xu die in a hurry, and now he is almost healed.

Yang Xu did not dare to have any slack, day and night.

Even later, the administrator of the stadium gave Yang Xu a key.

Under the effect of the strongest talent, Yang Xu’s basketball level has improved a lot.

In the space of two weeks, almost every shooting technique has gone up one level.

July 11 – July 20 is the time when the Las Vegas Summer League is held.

As a rookie, Yang Xu naturally went there with the team to play.

In the end, under the leadership of Yang Xu, the Knicks won the championship, and Yang Xu won the MVP with an average of 29.3 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game.

His performance overshadowed all the rookies at the time, but just like that, the Knicks still didn’t pay attention to Yang Xu.

This year’s summer vacation seemed very calm, and the trading market was not even a big fish.

In August, the league announced its schedule for the new season.

On October 27, the official NBA regular season officially began. The pre-season starts on October 2.

On September 15, the Knicks began their team training.

Yang Xu arrived at the stadium very early, and when he arrived, there was no one in the stadium.

Picked up the basketball and shot a hollow three-pointer.

He opens his properties panel.

Seeing the current attribute value, Yang Xu was very satisfied.

“The summer vacation is still very fruitful!”

It’s just that he trained alone during the summer vacation, so some aspects were not trained, defense, movement, interpretation of games on the field, etc.

But this one is also in no hurry, and progress can only be made in the game.

Taking advantage of the time before everyone came, Yang Xu began his shooting training again.

After about an hour, people arrived one after another.

At this time, the Knicks were almost an interior team, and the team was slow to attack.

David Lee, Al Harrington, Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari and other teams are all more than two meters tall.

Nate Robinson and Chris Duhon on the back line are again clearly flawed.

Therefore, there is a shortage of defender talent in the team as a whole.

And the team’s biggest name, Tracy McGrady, was already injured at this time, and his attendance was not guaranteed.

Therefore, the team’s results have always ranked last in the East, but it will not be in an embarrassing situation.

Yang Xu also couldn’t understand why the team still chose inside player Jordan Hill during the draft.

He also traded with the Blazers for forward players.

The second to arrive at the stadium was Robinson, and he naturally said hello when he saw Yang Xu.

“Hey, little one!”

Immediately afterwards, Li, Chandler and others also arrived.

At this time, the coach came to the stadium with his small book.

Clap hands and gather everyone together, “Boys, all gather around!” ”

All the players stood in a row to face D’Antonis.

“A summer vacation has passed, the new season hopefully we can play better, our goal is the playoffs!”

When they heard this goal, everyone was unimpressed.

Remember that the team won 39% last season, ranking second from bottom in the East.

This season, there are fewer Randolph and Crawford, and I am afraid that this year’s record will be even worse.

At this time, even many media suggested that the team start rotten.

Of course, this is a bit of a shame for a super city.

But in the absence of big stars, maybe this is the most suitable approach.

D’Antoni said a lot, but it still didn’t arouse the enthusiasm of the players.

There was no way, he had to go directly to training.

As we all know, D’Antonis’s coaching philosophy is to advocate fast attack and counterattack, take attack as defense, advocate players to quickly share the ball, and maximize the ability of defenders.

But in such a team with big players as the core, D’Antonis’s style of play really seems out of place.

D’Antoni divided the players into two teams and began the intra-team match.

When detaching the team, D’Antoni noticed the change in Yang Xu and walked over.

He looked up and down and patted Yang Xu’s arm, his eyes full of surprise.

“Little one, I haven’t seen you in three months, I’ve grown a lot taller, and I’ve become a lot stronger, come on!”

Yang Xu responded with a smile.

The final result of the team was a group of Al Harrington, David Lee, Wilson Chandler, Chris Duhon, and Jared Jeffries.

Dako Milicic, Jordan Hill, Danilo Gallinari, Nate Robinson, Yang Xu group.

D’Antoni divided into two groups, starting and substitutes, with the obvious purpose of running in the starting line-up.

But such a lineup is good, Yang Xu’s team, there is no absolute offensive strength, Yang Xu has enough shots.

While the players were still warming up, Gallinari came to Yang Xu’s side.

With his hands crossed at the waist, he put on a high-handed appearance, “Rookie, wait to defend with all your strength, do a good job of defending, get the ball, and pass the damn ball to me!” ”

Yang Xu disagreed and spread his hands.

“Talk to you, do you hear it, I am the main force of the attack!” Seeing that Yang Xu had no reaction, Gallinari continued.

“I know how to play and I know where to pass the ball!”

Yang Xu didn’t want to have too much entanglement with Gallinari.

Gallinari, who had eaten the closed-door soup, glared at Yang Xu.

At this point, D’Antoni blew the whistle and the game was about to begin.

Gallinari walked onto the court, but he was very dissatisfied with this rookie, and his eyes were fixed on Yang Xu from time to time.

The two sides started jumping the ball, Jeffreys vs Milišic.
