Super Role Player

On September 7, the hot weather in Houston was a bit unbearable. Even practicing in an air-conditioned arena on this day was extremely uncomfortable. ~~щww~suimеng~lā

Anxi is training at the moment, and LeBron James's heavy breathing is heard in his ears, and Hajime Olajuwon's shouts are not far away, his body is full of muddy sweat, and the steps under his feet are still unstoppable.

With a snap, Anxi dribbled the ball, then turned around and hooked up to the basket...

Bang, the basketball hit the rim twice before it barely got into the rim.

"Ann, you turned too quickly, LeBron hasn't been completely shaken by you yet!" Hajim Olajuwon immediately commented on the ball, which is not harsh, but Anxi knows that this is Olajuwon. He always teaches you how to do it calmly. Anxi feels very comfortable with this training method.

What's more comfortable is that he didn't expect to meet LeBron James in the Big Dream training camp, which allowed him to test his training gains in actual combat.

LeBron James also came to Hajim Olajuwon to train his back technique and low post skills. In the finals, Anxi's unfavorable back singles gave LeBron James this idea. He felt that he should continue. Strengthen his back, so LeBron James once again found Olajuwon, he came once in the previous off-season, it was after the season that lost to the Mavericks.

This time, LeBron James did not expect that he would meet Anxi in the Big Dream training camp, but the first day he came, Anxi's training in the Big Dream training camp has come to an end.

So, naturally, LeBron James and Anxi treat each other as a sparring team, especially LeBron James. He doesn't think Anxi is qualified to let him do sparring, but Anxi is more than enough to be his sparring team.

But when the duel between the two really started, LeBron James found out that he was wrong.

Anxi’s back-body technique has long been able to explode him, and after two consecutive weeks of low-position technique in the Big Dream training camp, Anxi’s low-position technique has also made an improvement long ago, and that improvement directly made Anxi’s The low post grew to 70, coupled with the growth of the back-body technique to 80, facing LeBron James, Anxi naturally used all his strength and abused James severely.

Today is the third day that Anxi and LeBron James will practice with each other. On September 8th, Anxi will leave the Big Dream training camp, so this heads-up should be the last time the two will be heads-up.

LeBron James clapped his hands fiercely, and then shouted: "Come on, it's me!"

LeBron James took an offensive stance and took the basketball from Anxi.

After a sprint, LeBron James came to the low post, facing Anxi with his back, banged, and knocked Anxi back half a step. I have to say that LeBron James still has a physical advantage, and this has directly caused Anxi to be a little bit weak.

Seeing Anxi stepping back, James felt that a chance was coming. He turned and pressed Anxi to send the basketball into the basket, but Anxi did not lose his position. He just stepped back half a step and stretched out his hand to directly block it. James' shooting angle, the basketball hit the backboard with a bang, and then bounced out.

Didn't get in!

Hajim Olajuwon said a few words from the sidelines: "LeBron, you are too anxious, Anxi has not been completely shaken yet, your second step should be a fake move to deceive Anxi's defensive focus. , And then layup from the other side, this is the most correct approach."

LeBron James nodded and continued to engage in the confrontation with Anxi.

The confrontation lasted for half an hour. Olajuwon called out, letting Anxi and James rest first, and then walked to the side of the two, using a tactical board to analyze the problems between them.

There are definitely problems. On the one hand, although Anxi's back and low positions have improved, it is certainly not perfect. On the other hand, Olajuwon's observers are clear and can naturally see Anxi's problems.

After pointing a few more words, Olajuwon mentioned Anxi's departure.

"Ann, when will you leave tomorrow?"

Anxi going? LeBron James looked up at Anxi. LeBron James felt that he had gained a lot from training with Anxi in the past two days, because Anxi is not only a back and low player, he is also a defensive master.

Anxi suddenly said to leave now, LeBron James was a little unwilling, and then LeBron James could only shook his head in his heart, Anxi wanted to leave, he could not control others at all.

Faced with Olajuwon’s question, Anxi nodded. He had already thought about it: "Yes, I am going to leave tomorrow morning and fly directly to Philadelphia."

"You started the pre-season training so early?" Olajuwon suddenly became curious.

"No, the training camp started on September 15th, and it won't be a few days away."

Olajuwon nodded, and then said with a smile: "Well then, I will treat you tonight and see you off, LeBron, come together?"

LeBron James nodded: "Okay."

After a break for ten minutes, the confrontation started again. There were constant shouts from the training hall. Finally, exhausted Anxi and James lay on the floor for a rest, and then Olajuwon went to the underground garage ahead of time. Driving, waiting for Anxi and James at the entrance of the arena.

In the dressing room, Anxi, who had recovered first, took a shower, and then watched LeBron James come in.

LeBron James did not go directly to the bath. He stood at the door for a while, and then suddenly said: "Ann, I have a question for you, why did you suddenly explode in the finals last season?"

Anxi was stunned, and then smiled bitterly in her heart. Why did it suddenly break out? Well, this question is really good.

"I think my condition is very good, so I broke out."

"But this is not in line with common sense. When you fight the Warriors, your performance can only be said to be average, but when you fight us, you are suddenly very excited."

Anxi tilted his head and thought for a while. He found a reason for himself: "Maybe you don't have a real perimeter defensive player. The Warriors do. Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes are both."

"Perimeter defensive player..."

LeBron James only muttered this sentence, and then walked into the bathroom alone.

...

In the evening, Olajuwon hosted a banquet for Anxi and James at a western restaurant in downtown Houston. However, there was not much talk between the three. LeBron James was not very fond of talking when facing Anxi and Olajuwon. This Anxi doesn't know if it is James's own character, but seeing him talking in front of the live camera, Anxi thinks that maybe LeBron James just thinks he has nothing to talk with himself and Olajuwon, so there is nothing to say.

But Anxi and Olajuwon talked a lot, including the future of the 76ers.

In the words, Anxi is very confident about the 76ers making the playoffs. This made LeBron James interested and asked Anxi several questions.

"Why, why do you think the 76ers have a chance to make the playoffs? As far as I know, the 76ers have lost a lot of players this season. In terms of signings, apart from you, there is no big deal."

Anxi looked at LeBron James, who was full of questioning. He only said one sentence: "Isn't it alright to have me?"

LeBron James was silent immediately. He was speechless. On the one hand, he felt that Anxi was too confident and seemed overconfident, but on the other hand, he could not find the question in Anxi's answer.

Indeed, just from the confrontation over the past few days, Anxi is definitely not the role player mentioned by the media. In the new season, Anxi will definitely become an All-Star.

However, LeBron James still feels that the 76ers' lineup is too bad, so bad that even if he goes to the 76ers, he will not have much confidence.

"As far as I know, the signings of the 76ers are not over yet, do you have any other signings?"

With this question, An Xi shook his head: "I don't know."

He really didn't know that although Josh Harris gave him the right to sign up independently, this right has not been fulfilled, so this offseason, the signings of the 76ers have nothing to do with Anxi.

"You don't know?" LeBron James was a little surprised.

An Xi nodded: "Yes, I don't know."

LeBron James has nothing to say. He thinks Anxi is just self-confident, and there is nothing else to ask, so he has nothing to ask. In his heart, he still doesn't think the 76ers can make the playoffs because of one The All-Stars can't bring a team that looks horrible to the playoffs.

Unless it's a superstar...

But the current Anxi certainly does not have the strength of a superstar.

After eating this somewhat boring meal, Anxi stayed in Houston for another night, and then boarded the plane to Philadelphia the next morning.

In the new house in Philadelphia, everything seemed so quiet and lonely. Abby was not here. When Anxi was training in Houston, she stayed with her for a while, then went to Phoenix and stayed with her parents for a while. , Haven't come back yet.

But in the afternoon ~www.ltnovel.com~ there was a living person in the villa, Ivo Clark came, and during the Anxi special training period, a lot of things happened around Anxi.

For example, the Chinese men's basketball team was defeated in Manila and lost to South Korea in the first game.

Stumbled to qualify from the group, and then the quarterfinals lost to the team as never before, bursting into a big upset, and finally could only rely on the final qualifying, ranking fifth, setting a new low for the Asian Championships.

Such a record naturally caused an uproar in the country. Although they knew that Anxi was gone, no one would have thought that the men's basketball team without Anxi would be so miserable and bleak. Therefore, the domestic scolding war against the men's basketball team and the Basketball Association, It turned on all at once...

In addition to the defeat of the men's basketball team, there are also a variety of fascinating signings for the 76ers.

The summer league signed a large number of fringe players in the league. After some rehearsals, they were awarded training camp contracts for the best of these fringe players. The new season has not yet begun, and the 76ers’ roster is full of strange names. ...

And Ivo Clark came for these two things...
