I'm not really a role player

Chapter 106 Am I Elvis? (4.2K first update)
"Combined task: I am Elvis Presley."

"The first stage: maintain two months of efficient performance, conquer the team management, gain the trust of the coaching staff, and win more possessions..."

"Phase [-]: Completing Phase [-] will open."

"Mission Reward: Choose one of the two traits."

Back at the apartment, Li Ke was not idle, and ran to the training hall, where he did some strength training under the guidance of Tim Graver.

I sweated profusely and went home to take a shower.

While lying in the bathtub, Li Ke entered the system.

He had already checked this new combination task in detail during the break of the game.

Two months of high-efficiency performance refers to the games in the next two months. Li Ke must maintain an average field goal percentage of more than 50%.

This made Li Ke ponder.

Seeing this 50% shooting rate, the first thing he thought of was a player named LeBron James.

At some stage, LeBron had a habit of keeping his hits.

In many cases, even if the team lags behind by a large score, he will not shoot high and hit low because of this. High efficiency is synonymous with Lebon.

"So, wouldn't Phase [-] be synonymous with inefficiency? Kobe?"

Li Ke boldly made a guess, but even if he guessed right, the system remained silent.

The hit rate is higher than 50%, which is actually not difficult for Li Ke.

Grasp one point: if it is not an opportunity, never make a move.

In the first game of the preseason that just ended, although his teammates were flying to the sky, he still grasped every opportunity steadily and steadily, acting as if he was the veteran of the Bobcats for countless years.

The reason, of course, is this task.

The requirement of the task is to average the field goal percentage, so what Li Ke has to do is to try to increase the field goal percentage in each game.

Just like this one, the shooting percentage was 15 of 9, as high as 60%.

Then in the next game, Li Ke will be able to shoot a 40% shooting rate. On average in the two games, he is still efficient.

"The task is not difficult, let's do it first."

Trait is a good thing, Li Ke has a deep understanding, and he will never let go of the opportunity to add another trait to the trait column.

……

The first game of the preseason was off to a good start, but the Bobcats were not happy about it because Sam Vincent lost his temper on the second day of the game.

"You all thought you performed well in the last game? Yes, yes, Emeka got a double-double, Gerrard scored 25 points, Shelton also scored 22 points, and Raymond, 13 assists, really selfless..."

selfless?Selfless Gigi!

"If you guys can really be selfless, Sheldon should score 40 points!"

This... Li Ke seems to have become a good student in the teacher's mouth.

"Facing an opponent like the Knicks, I should be able to win the game without calling a timeout!"

Indeed, the Knicks were so bad, Sam Vincent only called the opening timeout, and then the Bobcats led smoothly all the way until the end of the game.

"But what happened?"

Sam Vincent spread his hands, and finally announced: "Today's training is passing training. After training, we will practice for two more hours!"

There was a wailing sound in the training hall, this is going to work overtime...

The training of NBA teams is usually from 955 to [-], and you can take a day off after the game day, which is a bit like a [-] working system.

Once I work overtime, and the dinner time is counted separately, I will be busy until 8 pm. At that time, some players' rush arrangements will have to be cancelled.

Therefore, wailing is necessary, and even scolding:

Phew, damned capitalist Sam Vincent!
The intensity of passing training is actually not high, but what Sam Vincent wants is an attitude.

He wants to see the team put the pass first, and he doesn't want to see Li Ke standing in a wide open position but not receiving the ball.

Of course, not just Li Ke.

……

In the second game of the preseason, the Bobcats left Charlotte and went to Atlanta not far away to play against the Eagles.

Li Ke was very excited to return to the city that made him reach the pinnacle of the NCAA.

But no matter how excited they are, they will be splashed with cold water by the tragic competition.

After all, the opponent in this game is no longer a super bad team like the Knicks, and the strength of this Eagles is still quite strong.

Although last season, the Eagles, like the Bobcats, were at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

But the draft of the management team is strong, and it is also the No. 14 pick. Al Horford scored a double-double with 10 points and [-] rebounds in his NBA debut.

There is also Josh Smith, the No. 04 rookie in the first round in 17. After two seasons of honing, the new season is already a bit like a super all-around forward.

Marvin Williams, Josh Childress, etc., although they are slightly inferior to the draft, at least there is no problem starting.

Look at Bobcats again...

Don't talk about it!

Li Ke's opponent is Joe Johnson. Compared to the draft, this guy is a foreign monk.

Even so, he is the titular boss of the Eagles, the first Eagle King of the 21st century.

Foreign monks can chant scriptures, and perhaps Robert Johnson has the same idea. He regards Jason Richardson as Joe Johnson of the Bobcats.

At this time, the Eagle King is still immature, but he is already a kaleidoscope on the offensive end, and Li Ke's defense is very difficult.

For example, at the beginning of the game, Joe Johnson hit a high back shot, half turned around and suddenly took a step back. Li Ke didn't keep up, so he could only watch the basketball spin into the net frame.

Then in the next round, the half turn suddenly turned into a full turn, and he made a short breakthrough, threw a shot facing the basket, and hit again.

At the beginning, Li Ke's defense against Joe Johnson was not very good, and he even felt a bit pierced.

Gerald Wallace patted Li Ke and wanted to switch defenses, but Li Ke shook his head and refused.

Then, he sank into the one-on-one with Joe Johnson.

If he really wants to defend with all his strength, Joe Johnson will still suffer a bit. After all, Li Ke's single defense is not bad at this time.

In the opening game, two goals were scored in a row. With the third goal, Li Ke recovered the field.

"Joe Johnson, half-turned and took another step back?"

"No, after a shake, he turned back again, and made a complete turn in the opposite direction very smoothly..."

"Oh my god, Sheldon actually reacted, he blocked Joe Johnson's jumper!"

With a bang, Li Ke's perfect defense prevented Joe Johnson's third consecutive field goal.

Then, he defended another one, one-on-one defense, and he found the feeling.

Li Ke has done his job well, and he can only ignore the extra work of assisting defense and supplementary defense.

That's where Adam Morrison went wrong.

Although he played poorly in the last preseason game, Mo Tanhua still got the chance to start this game, and he is still one of the two ball-holding points for the Bobcats outside.

But he seemed to have regained a little feeling, and hit a three-pointer at the beginning.

Charles Barkley in the commentary joked: "Sam Vincent should replace Adam Morrison now, because he has already made the only goal of the game..."

But then, Barkley was slapped in the face.

Because in the next round, Mo Tanhua went to the basket again, got an empty basket opportunity, and made a successful hit.

"Two balls, Adam seems to have found the feeling?"

Boss Joe did not travel with the team, but he followed the live broadcast of the game from his apartment in Charlotte.

When Mo Tanhua scored 5 points in a row at the beginning, he was delighted.

Tim Graver on the side shook his head. He wanted to tell God Joe that Mo Tanhua might just be lucky.

Then, on the defensive end, Mo Tanhua was stepped over by Josh Childress who suddenly started holding the ball. He still took two steps back and then gave up.

If he didn't follow up, Boss Hua couldn't help defend, and Li Ke had no time to defend. The Bobcats' defense fell through Mo Tanhua's side.

Before going to Europe to pan for gold, Childress was still very strong. He could fly and dunk well, and he had the unique skill of slipping the bottom line with one hand. Even if Li Ke came up, he couldn't guarantee 100% blocking.

It was okay to be punched through once, but then Childress beat him again, Mo Tanhua began to feel a little ashamed.

Because the away fans were already laughing at him, and Mo Tanhua's first reaction was——

"Sheldon, where's your defense?"

"???"

Li Ke spread his hands, my defense?
Looking at the serious and angry Mo Tanhua, Li Ke replied simply: "Fuck your defense!"

"This is the coach's request..."

"Even if the coach came to ask me, it would be: Fuck you!"

Although he didn't want to have close contact with Mo Tanhua, Li Ke was a little angry at this time.

He was already made uncomfortable by Joe Johnson's singles, but the big-faced teammate next to him asked him to continue wiping his butt. His selfish face made people angry.

Rushing forward, aiming at Adam Morrison, spit flying all over the place: "Fuck you!"

Then, he was dragged away by Boss Hua and Fei Dun.

Live TV captured this episode on the field, Charlotte --

"Sheldon and Adam had an argument?"

"It's just a conflict between teammates."

David Falk frowned, but Boss Joe didn't think there was any fuss.

When he was playing, there were many conflicts between teammates like this. For example, he once beat Steve Kerr violently, but after that, weren't the two still good teammates?

But then, Boss Joe discovered that Adam Morrison had disappeared after the conflict.

"Sam replaced Adam, didn't he perform well in this game?"

"Are you sure, Michael?"

"The offensive performance was not bad."

"But the defense is broken, don't say it doesn't matter, Michael."

"..."

Adam Morrison, who was 3 for 2, never played again, and he seemed to be forgotten by Sam Vincent.

Maybe it's not forgotten, because without Adam Morrison, the Bobcats' defensive intensity has gone up again.

Facing the Eagles, they played in an orderly manner, and in the end they only lost to their opponents by 8 points.

After the game, Al Horford found Li Ke like an old friend: "Sheldon, I won this time."

Li Ke threw a question mark over, and then spread his hands: "No way, Al, this is just a preseason game."

Al Horford smiled: "I know, but obviously, your bobcats can't beat my eagle."

"Don't be so judgmental."

Li Ke left with a dark face. Indeed, the Bobcats can't beat the Eagles. Even if the game enters the regular season, this ending is difficult to change.

Just look at the technical statistics of this game. For the Bobcats, Boss Hua scored a team-high 19 points. Most of his energy was devoted to Li Ke on the defensive end. On the offensive end, he only made 6 of 3 shots.

On the Eagles side, there were two 20+ points. Joe Johnson was defended by Li Ke and made 22 of 9 shots and scored 22 points. However, Mike Bibby beat Fatton, scoring 4 three-pointers and scoring 27 points.

Look at Josh Smith and Al Horford, who haven't made much effort yet...

Difficult, too difficult, very difficult!

……

Back in Charlotte, the effects of the loss began to swell.

The first is the dispute between Li Ke and Mo Tanhua. Although Boss Qiao said that it was just a small conflict between teammates, when Li Ke returned to Charlotte, he still asked about it with concern.

Well, mostly David Falk cared more.

"My conflict with Adam Morrison?"

Li Ke was very angry: "It's not because of the defense. Sam Vincent asked me to wipe the buttocks of the two outsiders when I had extra energy, but Adam Morrison took it for granted!"

"He got blown up by Josh Childress, but he blamed me for the problem, thinking that my supplementary defense was not in place..."

Li Ke spread his hands: "My opponent is Joe Johnson. It's already very difficult to defend alone, and I should be asked to defend? Is his head full of poop?"

David Falk nodded: "Even if his head isn't filled with poop, it should be filled with poop now."

Listening to Li Ke's complaints and David Falk's serious echo, Jordan rolled his eyes and thought of the deal Robert Johnson mentioned.

"Well, Sheldon, I promise, you won't see Adam again until the season starts..."

Li Ke stared, Boss Qiao's guarantee came again?

David Falk smiled, and Old Joe finally figured it out.

Li Ke, who only scored 8 points after losing to the Eagles, also saw black drafts about him in the media.

For example, when ESPN reported the game, the title used was——

"Only 8 points in a single game, hand-picked by Jordan?"

This reminded Li Ke of the first game of the preseason. In that game, the Bobcats won a big victory, and he also scored 22 points efficiently.

After that game, the headline on ESPN was --

"With 22 points in his preseason debut, Shelton may become the only successful Jordan handpicked!"

Media reporters are a bunch of fools, and Li Ke is deeply aware of this.

……

In the third game of the preseason, the Bobcats played against the Timberwolves at home.

Mo Tanhua is still starting, but Li Ke has already heard some trading rumors related to Mo Tanhua.

Although Mo Tanhua's performance is useless, he was also last year's Tanhua after all. The NCAA is the second generation of Bird who averaged 28.1 points per game. There are not a few teams that still have illusions about him.

In other words, Boss Joe is not alone in the matter of valuing Adam Morrison!

There are still people with the same bad eyesight as him.

In this game, Mo Tanhua's performance sank again. He lost two in the opening game, and then was replaced early by Sam Vincent.

However, the opponent is not strong. After the big deal before the season, the Timberwolves are still in a state of chaos.

Relying on Hua Boss' 25 points, Okafor's 17 points and 11 rebounds, and Felton's 14 points and 8 assists, the Bobcats won their second preseason victory.

Li Ke's performance was not bad either. In order to maintain a 9% shooting rate, he only took 5 shots, hit 13 goals and scored [-] points.

After the game, Li Ke received a text message from Kobe.

"See you next time in Charlotte, remember to prepare a private court!"

The Lakers are about to come to challenge, and a loss is already scheduled, but what Li Ke is more concerned about is, is he going to fight Kobe again?
If he doesn't use the bravery trait and only relies on A-level single defense, can he play a little bit?

It's a problem...
