Buddha's light illuminates NBA

Chapter 3 Plays beautifully, good looks are king
It seems that D'Antoni was indeed shocked by the dramatic reversal of losing Curry and getting Lu Ming again. He was very excited and kept spit out many professional basketball terms.

Getting a shooting guard who can handle the ball does make him feel a bit out of place.

After all, after leaving Steve Nash, the son of the wind, he hasn't met a good organization master for many years.

Lu Ming smiled and listened, nodding his head from time to time to show that he was listening and understood.

It wasn't until the end of the draft that Lu Ming finally met the general manager of the Knicks, Joseph Donald Walsh, who had a neat back.

People affectionately called him Donnie Walsh.

When we first met, the impression of both parties was not bad.

It may be the intimacy brought by the word Downey. Lu Ming felt that Downey-Walsh's aura was compatible with him.

And Walsh secretly felt that this young man, who is elegant and smart on the court and modest and gentleman off the court, will definitely become New York's new favorite, attracting more fans to enter the arena for consumption.

Although they never lack fans.

For this, Downey - Walsh has no doubts.

After all, a player who was able to make a name for himself during the NCAA, and a title like "Master-Lu" that makes him feel crazy and handsome at first glance, how can he be less popular?
There have never been only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

What is the most attractive thing about playing football?
win?
No, that's just an addition.

Good-looking is king!

After all, in essence, basketball itself is also a kind of competitive entertainment.

Therefore, a player like Lu Ming who is good-looking and good-looking is destined to join the Knicks family.

Accompanied by Hall, Lu Ming signed a four-year rookie contract with a total value of 1250 million US dollars.

The rookie contract is a 2+1+1 standard contract, with full guarantees for the first two years, team options for the third year, and restricted options for the fourth year.

After signing, Donnie Walsh stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face, "Lu, welcome to the Knicks family!"

"Thank you!"

……

The news that Lu Ming became the third NBA first-round pick from China and the sixth Chinese player who will land in the NBA immediately became the headlines of all major news.

Many fans are already preparing to regard the Knicks as their home team in their rookie season.

CCTV also plans to negotiate an increase in the number of Knicks games broadcast.

So in the next few days, Lu Ming began to keep sending domestic news from Hall, who is half of China.

However, most of them are somewhat nonsensical.

Lu Ming was considering whether to add a domestic professional to the management team?

Before he could think it over, even more nonsensical news came.

On the day when he went to New York to report for duty at the end of June, he occasionally saw a news report in Hangzhou saying that the number of visitors to Lingyin Temple had doubled recently!
Moreover, the dilapidated basketball court in Lingyin Temple has become a new famous attraction in the temple.

"Master, did you bother you?" Lu Ming called Master, worried about his health.

"It's just to get quiet in the midst of trouble, it's okay." The master's condition seems to be very good.

"Then, master, if the number of tourists doubles, will the income also increase? I'm probably responsible for this, right? Abbot, why don't you consider giving me some points?" Lu Ming joked.

"Sinister, you have returned to vulgarity yourself, what is going on in the temple is related to you?"

"..."

Lu Ming was silent, and after a while, he said in a low voice, "Master, I have let you down."

"Lu Ming, you have been by my side for 17 years. I know that although you are destined to be my Buddha, your character is easy to be persistent. There is nothing wrong with being persistent. You are not obsessed with this, but you are obsessed with that. Now that you have chosen the path of being an athlete, you must go on and do not give up halfway. You, remember?"

"Master, I remember."

"Well, let's go then."

"Hey."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ming had already appeared in the Knicks Arena.

It has to be said that as the richest team in the NBA, the Knicks' team environment is indeed extraordinary.

In the following time, Lu Ming began professional training.

Before the start of the summer league, there are three main training directions for him. One is strength training, especially core strength;

Although Lu Ming has a childish skill in basketball, after all, he has only been in contact with professional basketball training for a year, and he still spends part of his time playing games during this period. All basic skills are the direction he should focus on improving.

After all, next season, no accident, he will be the core of the team, facing a stronger first-level competition, the challenge will be stronger.

"How is Lu's training going?" Before the summer league, team development coach Kenny Atkinson called in team trainer Rob McClanahan who was in charge of Lu Ming's training.

"I can't believe my eyes! Kenny, he trains too hard. I have never seen anyone who works harder than him! Even if he trains to exhaustion every day, he is still like a normal person the next day!" Rob McClanahan said excitedly.

"It won't be too strong, right?" Atkinson was still worried when he was surprised.

"No, not at all. We have professional strength training masters like Greg, and we will not let training become a factor that damages the body."

Greg Brittenham has been an assistant coach of the New York Knicks for 20 years, and has been committed to player development and team training. At the same time, he also has a set of training programs to improve the overall ability of athletes.

So for Brittenham's training plan, Atkinson still believes.

Then I asked about the training plan and process in detail.

"At the beginning, we needed to let him have a better strength foundation. After all, he has only been in contact with professional training for less than a year. Then there is training on explosive power, increasing training on take-off and landing, and training on the control of the torso, hips, knees and ankles when landing..." Speaking of training, Robert McClanahan is a long story.

"Later, I found out that his training speed is too fast! It is completely different from the physical measurement data in the draft, which is better! I wonder if it is because he has only participated in basketball training for less than a year before, so he has not fully controlled his body yet?"

"Well, let's go on." Atkinson nodded and sent a bottle of water.

"Listen, Kenny, Lu will definitely become the savior of the Knicks. I mean it, in the next ten years, or even longer, he will be our Knicks superstar! At least, he will be a phenomenal star!" Rob McClanahan's words were very intense.

"Compared to Patrick Ewing?" Atkinson asked.

Ewing was the former star of the Knicks. Since he retired in 2002, the Knicks have fallen into a downturn, even a quagmire.

Atkinson's purpose in mentioning Ewing is obvious.

Rob McClanahan's excitement stagnated, he hesitated and said, "Lu will bring more fans to the Knicks."

Atkinson thought to himself, what do you need to say?
He's not someone who doesn't read any news.

"If," Rob McClanahan took a deep breath, and then tentatively expressed his inner thoughts, "I mean, if we can match Lu with some NBA-level players in reasonable positions, we will achieve more victories."

He didn't dare to say the championship.

After all, not all teams are called the Lakers.

Opening your mouth and shutting your mouth is the Lakers championship.

Of course, his implication is also more obvious. The current Knicks may not be counted as NBA-level players.

Atkinson was a little surprised. He didn't know how much impact and confidence Lu Ming had given the trainer in front of him during the training. Then he confessed in a half-approving and half-serious tone, "Then, Mr. McClanahan, please train our superstar well."

After speaking, he glanced at Lu Ming who was doing three-point training on the court, and left without saying hello.
