I'm not really a role player

Chapter 108 The Regular Season Is About to Begin (4.3K Tickets Required!)

After returning from the game, Li Ke immediately checked the published regular season schedule.

The regular season schedule for the new season was compiled after the draft, so almost all the four teams with Chinese players were allocated some more important games.

For example, the Bobcats, in the opening game of the regular season, they will play against the Bucks.

After the Halloween war, the Bobcats will go to Houston to challenge the Rockets.

Originally, there was a Thanksgiving Day battle after Halloween.

But last year, Kobe bombarded the league: I really don't understand why I still have to play games on Thanksgiving Day and can't be with my family at home. This is simply Sucks!
In addition, the NFL also has a Thanksgiving Day game. Every year, the ratings of the NFL's Thanksgiving Day game can suppress the NBA.

As a result, Kobe's bombardment made David Stern go downhill, and the Thanksgiving Day war was cancelled.

In the Christmas game, the Bobcats' opponent will be the Lakers, which is also an away game.

This has arranged three Chinese derby games, all three of which are away games. There is no way, who made Charlotte's football market too sluggish?

However, the arrival of Li Ke still brought some additional economic benefits to Bobcats.

Two advertising sponsorships from Chinese companies, and a few more live broadcasts across the United States, the income from the broadcast fee has increased accordingly.

Whether it can turn losses into profits because of this is beyond Li Ke's ability to know.

Even Jordan can't be sure. After all, the bulk of the NBA team's revenue is still ticket revenue and merchandise sales revenue.

The few who don't take these two incomes too much are all weirdos in the NBA.

For example, the Lakers, their regional broadcast income is too high, and they have to spend a sum of money every year to share with other teams in the NBA.

And the Rockets, they got piles and piles of advertising sponsorships from China, and the boss Alexander made a lot of money.

……

The next day, Li Ke saw his draft from newspapers and magazines.

The personal performance of scoring 25 points in the last game is really great.

The most important thing is that he also played a few balls against Kobe, giving people the feeling that——

The NBA is about to produce a new generation of shooting guards. Sheldon Lee has a promising future!

At this time, Jordan's hand-picking is still the key point. Finally, just one more thing, Michael Jordan can finally prove that his vision is correct.

This press release earned enough traffic and saliva.

After all, the protagonist is Michael Jordan!
In addition to himself, Li Ke also saw another protagonist handpicked by Jordan in several newspapers and magazines.

Adam Morrison was carried out of last night's game and early this morning, the detailed report of the injury was also released.

Torn cruciate ligament in left knee...

Well, with this wave of injuries, Mo Tanhua was gone immediately.

transaction?

nonexistent……

At this time, Boss Qiao will call out again, and I am afraid that no one will answer it.

With such a parallel import, Bobcat can only keep it by himself.

Li Ke doesn't care, whether to trade or not, from now on, he will never see Mo Tanhua.

If there is still a deal, Mo Tanhua will go far away.

No deal?Then let's recuperate from the injury first, it is a torn cruciate ligament, at least it needs to be recuperated for a season, right?

By the end of this season, Mo Tanhua's rookie contract will be in its third year. By that time, Boss Joe will never have any hesitation...

……

In the fifth game of the preseason, Mo Tanhua disappeared directly from the squad.

Replacing the starting position is Matt Carroll, a white shooter with an accurate three-pointer and a master of four-pointers.

He just renewed his contract with the Bobcats this summer, a six-year, $6 million long-term contract, which is enough to prove that the Bobcats value him.

The starting lineup has changed to a newcomer, and the responsibilities of the main players have also changed accordingly.

There were originally two ball-holding points on the outside line, but Mo Tanhua was gone, and the one that was vacated was replaced by Boss Hua.

Matt Carroll came up and took on some tasks to open up the space, and Li Ke was liberated accordingly, and he could get more shots.

The opponent in the fifth game was the Warriors. In the away game, without Mo Tanhua's constraints, the Bobcats played well.

Of course, the main reason is that the opponent did not defend.

For Don Nelson's team, the offense is vans.

Of course, at the end of the match, the Bobcats still lost the game.

The key point is that this Warriors team is very strong. Last year, they were eighth in the West and blacked out the Lone Ranger.

This season has not yet started, but in the history of later generations, this Warriors is also the ninth in the West, with 48 victories, and if they switch to the East, they will have the top four records in the East, a proper strong team.

Although he lost, Li Ke remained efficient.

He made 12 of 7 shots and scored 17 points. The shooting percentage was still over [-]%.

Boss Joe, who was watching the Bobcats finish the game in Charlotte, felt a little complicated.

Without Adam Morrison, the Bobcats' offense and defense have improved to a higher level, which basically determines the death penalty for Adam Morrison and Jordan's choice of death penalty last year.

Praise the champion, don't Tanhua, Jordan hand-picked two dead, only Li Ke left...

On the court, Li Ke, who was communicating with the bearded Baron Davis, suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

……

In the sixth game of the preseason, the Bobcats returned to Charlotte and played another game against the Eagles.

In this game, Li Ke's performance was slightly abnormal. His shooting percentage was 13 of 5, which was lower than [-]% for the first time.

However, Joe Johnson on the opposite side was not having a good time. He made 19 of 8 shots, which is not too high.

In the early 21st century, the Eagle King met Li Ke twice in the preseason, and he has already seen Li Ke's single defense.

He didn't have much communication with Li Ke after the game, but secretly made up his mind: In the regular season, he will beat Li Ke.

In the seventh game, they went to New York and defeated the Knicks away.

This game should be the strongest contrast between before and after the Bobcats.

When Mo Tanhua was there, the Bobcats fought back and forth with the Knicks, who rotated three players.

Mo Tanhua was gone, and the Bobcats faced the Knicks, who had made the most of their main force, killed in two quarters, and clocked out in three quarters early to get off work.

I don't know if it's Mo Tanhua's problem, or the Knicks' three main players.

Emmm, Li Ke looked at Jamal Crawford, who only made 17 of 6 shots under his defense, and understood why Ke Liu would be Joe Johnson's substitute later.

Then there's the comebacks of Stephon Marbury and Eddy Curry.

Although the old horse is nicknamed the Lone Wolf, he is not alone at all, but he controls a bit too much, and the Knicks' offense is a bit sluggish.

And Eddie Curry, who is fatter than Lan Fatty, went down to rest after only playing for 5 minutes.

"It is said that this year is the last year of the contract between Isiah Thomas and the Knicks. Just looking at the preseason, James Dolan should not renew his contract."

The locker room occasionally chats about gossip, but when talking about this Knicks team, Li Ke feels very strange.

Obviously Eddie Curry and Stephen Marbury have been proven to be failures. Why does Isiah Thomas trust them so much?

Lao Du's answer is: "It's very simple. Stephen Marbury and Eddie Curry were recruited by Isiah Thomas. They are both big contracts. He can't easily abandon them."

This made Li Ke even more confused, even his own job was about to be lost, and he was still thinking about these things, isn't it NT?
If he is replaced, he will just let Marbury and Eddie Curry go, and young players who play well can at least win a few more games.

"Hey, the Knicks this season are bound to book the last place in the Eastern Conference."

"Don't think so much, let's think about ourselves..."

Old Du interjected, and immediately pierced everyone's hearts.

Indeed, don't care what other people do, what kind of person you are, don't you have AC points?

In the last game of the preseason, the Bobcats' opponent was the Heat next door.

I thought that the Heat, which just won the championship in 06, would be a strong team, and when they really started playing, they discovered——

Wade was injured, O'Neal didn't play, and the veterans of the past two years have also retired. They are healthy and healthy, and the blue-collar Haslem and the rookie Dai Quinn Cook are the leaders.

Like playing against the Knicks, the Bobcats easily won the game.

Although they won the ball, the teammates are still guessing:

"Dwyane and Shaq will still come back. When they come back, the Heat will still be a strong team."

Li Ke, who was in the crowd, shook his head. A comeback is still possible, but for a strong team, forget it. The Heat this season are aiming for the No. [-] pick. Michael Beasley, OJ Mayo, Kevin Love, and Derrick Rose are too attractive, especially the first two.

Speaking of which, the excitement of the NCAA has also begun.

Unlike last year when the University of Florida Gators were the dominant team, the NCAA in the new season can be regarded as a group of heroes. Kansas, Kansas State University, University of Texas in the Big [-], North Carolina in the ACC, University of Memphis in the C-USA, UCLA and USC in the Pacific Ten League, all have the strength to compete for the championship.

It is worth mentioning that the University of Texas is also on this list.

In other words, the departure of Li Ke and Xiao Du did not seem to affect the popularity of the University of Texas.

Li Ke also paid special attention to it. The media believes that the improvement of Damien James and DJ Augustin next season can make up for the lack of Xiao Du’s departure to a certain extent. The arrival of Jimmy Butler can make up for the lack of Li Ke’s departure. But more importantly, Dexter Pittman’s successful weight loss will solve the internal illness that has plagued the University of Germany for a season...

Yes, that's right, Pittman lost weight successfully.

This guy even called specifically to thank Li Ke.

Li Ke's various training methods have benefited him a lot, especially the swimming weight loss method, which allowed him to find his current girlfriend and officially leave the singles.

"Fuck, Dexter can get out of the order!"

Li Ke thinks about himself again, the sadness of a single dog...

Just Jiang, the Bobcats who finished the preseason, looked back and summarized, only to find that they also won a lot of games.

Two wins to the Knicks, one win to the Lakers, one win to the Timberwolves, and one win to the Heat. They won five games and only lost the two games of the Warriors and Eagles.

The new season doesn't seem so hopeless anymore, but full of hope.

Throughout the eight games of the preseason, Li Ke made a total of 8 shots and hit 101 goals, averaging 54 points per game, with a shooting percentage of 17.1%, which has met the requirements of the task.

However, the requirement for the combination task is to persist for two months. Now, the time has only reached the end of October, and it is still more than a month away from two months.

"After the opening game, play another month of games to complete this task."

In the preseason, Li Ke has been trying to maintain his shooting percentage as much as possible, in order to leave enough space for the next regular season.

You know, the preseason and the regular season are basically two levels of competition, and the intensity alone is very different.

Think about it carefully, if the Lakers didn't rotate most of the main players, and the Heat's Wade and O'Neal didn't play, could the Bobcats win these two games?
In the preseason, for most of the games, Li Ke was playing against the opponent's substitute players, and the defensive intensity was not high.

In the regular season, the situation is different.

The opponents will definitely do their best. For the playoffs, for better statistics, and for more income, the players will also go all out.

The intensity has risen by at least one level. At that time, it will be very difficult for Li Ke to maintain a [-]% hit rate.

After the preseason, Li Ke also asked Tim Graver to help him make a simplified training plan for the Great Sage, and then emailed it to the Great Sage.

Just sending it by email, he was afraid that the Great Sage would not see it, so he called the Great Sage again.

"Great Sage, the training plan has been sent to you. It will be good for you to practice according to this."

"Thank you, Brother Li, really..."

The Great Sage emphasized it again, he really thanked him, Li Ke wanted to say: You don't need to emphasize, I know you are really grateful.

Because, the system has already prompted that the friendliness of the Great Sage has officially exceeded 80.

You can get a talent skill with a higher level...

Li Ke is still very happy to be able to improve a little bit before the regular season.

Entered the system, opened the data interface of the great sage, and selected the talent skills that suit him from among a bunch of not-so-good skills and talents——

"Sun Yue: 80 friendliness."

"Reproducible Sun Yue's talent:

A-level speed, B-level explosiveness, C-level flexibility, B-level jumping, B-level endurance, and D-level strength. "

"Sun Yue's skills that can be copied:
D-level rebounds, C-level single defense, C-level ball control, D-level passing, D-level layups..."

Looking at a bunch of C-level or D-level skills, Li Ke directly moved his gaze upwards.

After thinking about it for a while, or having nothing to think about, he directly chose the B-level outbreak.

In fact, of all the talents and skills of the Great Sage, the only ones that can improve Li Ke are explosion, rebounding, ball handling and layups.

There must be nothing wrong with choosing the outbreak with the highest level.

After copying, Li Ke returned to the address book page.

Because just now, with just a glance, he found that there seemed to be some changes in the address book——

"Tracey McGrady: Hostile value 30."

Maddie?

Where does this hostile value come from?I don't seem to have offended him...

Li Ke scratched his head. So far, he and McGrady haven't had any direct communication.

This hostile value appeared, just like the one with Brandon Wright, it appeared out of thin air.

The difference is that in Brandon Wright's time, Li Ke guessed the reason behind it, what about this time?

Li Ke thought for a long time but couldn't think of the reason, so he simply gave up thinking about it, and the soldiers came to cover up the water and soil.

Anyway, now, relying on A-level single defense, he is not so much McGrady who is worse than a year.

But for the opening game of the regular season, he has to prepare well.

Although he doesn't want to be an enemy of Lianmei, the domestic media has the intention of putting him and Lianmei on the opposite side.

It was just a preseason game, and the domestic media pulled him out to compare with the United Arab Emirates.

Fortunately, he played well in the preseason, and he barely played at the level of strength that a No. 8 rookie should have. There are not many people who criticize him.

But if he loses to the UAE in the opening game of the regular season, the overwhelming black water will be poured over.

After all, Lianmei's manager is Dan Fagan.

Using the media, that's Dan Fegan's regular weapon.

……

　I won’t open a single chapter, let’s talk about Yi and Sun here. Yi Wen’s current plot is about Sun Heiyi. Some people question why he wrote it like this. In fact, it’s not that Sun is better than Yi. In fact, Sun Biyi’s professional attitude is far more outrageous...

　　But Yi Wen personally believes that there are stages in terms of professional attitude. In this stage in the book, Sun participated in a joint trial training for the NBA and individually tried out 9 teams, almost relying on his own efforts to enter the NBA...

　　And look at Yi, rejecting combine workouts, chair workouts, not going to Milwaukee...  

　　I also don't want Hei Yi, but at this stage, what he does is to make people black, and what Sun does is not to say that it is worthy of praise, but at least it is not black, right?

　　The plot of the national team is unavoidable, and in order to get results in the Olympic Games and improve the strength of the main players of the men’s basketball team, many novels have to be prepared in advance. Therefore, Yi Wen chose to start with Sun.

　　Finally, I would like to thank aska12, Bunbao Dandan, book friend 20201216214154621, and open-minded for their rewards!
