NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker

The Las Vegas Summer League will be held from July 7th to July 16th, with a total of 22 teams participating.

Includes Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, Golden State Warriors, Phoenix Suns, Boston Celtics, Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, Memphis Grizzlies, Seattle SuperSonics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks, Portland Trail Blazers, Sacramento Kings, Detroit Pistons, Minnesota Timberwolves, Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, New Orleans Hornets, Philadelphia 76ers and China National Team.

Zhang Jun met the team's assistant coach Monty Williams in the training hall.

"In addition to you in the Trail Blazers summer league this time, there is LaMarcus Aldridge, the No. 2 pick we got from the Bulls last year."

"He didn't fulfill his talent last season, precisely because of Parkinson-White's syndrome and shoulder injuries, and he didn't prove himself on the court."

"Of course, Aldridge has not fully adapted to the NBA, so this summer league is very important to him."

"If a rookie player hasn't proven himself on the NBA court in two years, it's worth re-examining what he can achieve in the future."

Monty Williams is not only talking about LaMarcus Aldridge, but also for Zhang Jun.

He hopes that his words will not hurt Zhang Jun's self-esteem, but given how much the Trail Blazers value him and the expectations of the entire team's management and coaching staff, if Zhang Jun can't perform well this season, They may really want to re-examine Zhang Jun's future potential.

Moreover, the NBA is not so easy to play, there are too many talented and capable players.

It’s no wonder that the Trail Blazers’ management was so harsh on Zhang Jun and didn’t give the other rookies so much tolerance and opportunities. In fact, since he squeezed out Greg Oden and became the No. 1 pick, the whole world will treat him like this harsh.

Just like LeBron James in his rookie year, Zhang Jun will also face a lot of spotlights in his rookie season.

"So me and Aldridge are going to play together in summer league?"

"Oh, to be precise, accept everyone's test together."

Monty Williams nodded and said, "You're smart, that's what you mean."

"The Trail Blazers have too many young people. Now only one Brandon Roy has successfully played. Except for him, the rest of the young people are in the investigation period."

"If you are not careful, you will be traded!"

The last two words Monty Williams said very heavily, which Zhang Jun has never experienced in the NCAA.

Unlike the college league, you can transfer to another school if you can't play well, but in the NBA, you can't decide your fate if you don't play well.

Just like Thabeet in the previous life, no one even remembers him if he can't fight well.

Monty Williams patted Zhang Jun on the shoulder and said, "You don't need to worry too much. Coach Nate McMillan and I are very optimistic about you."

"As long as you can average 15 points per game in your rookie season, we can convince the management to train you and Brandon Roy as twin stars."

"Become an All-Star in four years, and you are worthy of your talent."

Zhang Jun nodded and said: "I will try my best, by the way, is it just me and Aldridge?"

Monty Williams thought for a while and said: "There are still some undrafted and unsigned players. They will play games with you. I will recommend those who perform well to the management. They will consider whether to give them a share." 10-day short contract and then review."

.........

July 7.

The Las Vegas Summer League is officially underway.

Zhang Jun and his new teammate Aldridge have already met. The latter is a sullen person who doesn't usually like to talk, but when a topic related to women is mentioned, he immediately **** up his ears to eavesdrop. With relish.

"Brother, play the Seattle SuperSonics tonight. I heard that they have a top ten scorer in the United States with the same offensive firepower as you?"

Zhang Jun immediately said: "Yes, that guy, he really likes to drink bath water."

Aldridge glanced at Durant, frowned and said, "Does he have this hobby?"

Zhang Jun nodded and said, "Do you know there is a female star named Scarlett Johansson?"

Aldridge opened his eyes wide and regained his energy, nodded repeatedly and said, "I know her, what's wrong?"

Zhang Jun said with contempt: "This guy wants to drink Scarlett Johansson's footwashing water in his dreams."

Aldridge asked curiously, "Isn't it bath water?"

Zhang Jun looked at him and said, "Is there a difference?"

Aldridge thought for a while and said, "Not really."

Durant, who was warming up, watched Zhang Jun not knowing what he was talking to his teammates there, and saw Aldridge spitting at himself with contempt, which was obviously not a good thing.

"This kid, sooner or later he has to be taught a lesson."

Coach Monty Williams has only one tactic, which is to pass the ball to Zhang Jun. Both he and Nate McMillan want Zhang Jun to adapt to the NBA as soon as possible.

Of course, there is still a big gap between the intensity of the summer league and the NBA, and even the gap with the NCAA. Therefore, Monty Williams' adaptation to the NBA here refers to the rules and rhythm of the game.

In particular, the change of the three-point line and the change of the game into a four-quarter rule require the players to adjust their own rhythm and distribute their physical strength.

Moreover, the four-quarter game will cut the game into pieces, and it will become even more broken in the NBA due to advertisements and frequent timeouts. Players need to find ways to maintain their own touch.

Frequent on and off the court and changes in body temperature will have a great impact on the state in the professional arena.

"In the first game, I didn't think about winning, nor did I think about how good Zhang Jun could play. As long as he can get used to the rules of the NBA game, I can put some demands on him in the next game, such as winning in the summer league. 20 points?"

Aldridge jumped off the ball and the Blazers attacked.

Point guard Chandler Weaver advanced with the ball and handed it to Zhang Jun. It was not Durant who defended him, but a European player named Zara Ciani.

boom!

There was a sudden kicking sound on the court, the friction between the sneakers and the floor was extremely ear-piercing, and then a figure passed the defender at a speed that no one expected, entered the penalty area in two steps, and directly jumped up with the Tomahawk split buckle.

Flowing clouds and flowing water in one go.

Zara Ciani swallowed, turned around and looked at Zhang Jun who had already fallen to the basket.

"What is he doing here?"
