Chapter 549 The upcoming regular season
In the training hall of the Warriors, the sound of yelling and cheering spread throughout the arena.
On the court, even though Barkley looked like an oversized fat man, his agility still caused enough trouble for Malone!
In the confrontation experience between the two last season, because Malone's body needs to be better maintained and his strength must be stronger, the confrontation between the two is basically described as half a catty, if it is not for Barkley. It belongs to the top-level back movement, I am afraid that Ma Long can handle him with only strength!
However, after getting bigger and bigger, even though Barkley lacks in strength, his obese figure is not a vegetarian!
On the court, as the two entered the final heated stage little by little, the confrontation between them was like a classic textbook, which benefited the players watching around a lot!
"Bang Bang!!"
When Barkley was forced into the three-second zone by Malone, he was sweating, and as Malone exerted his strength again, everyone sat on the floor dumbfounded!
"Damn it, I'm just playing with you!!" Barkley climbed up with a depressed face, looked at Ma Long in front of him who seemed to be showing off his power, his eyes suddenly rolled, and he said proudly: "Hey, buddy, although I I lost this game, but I am the guy who won the championship earlier than you!"
"you.."
Malone looked at Barkley with a displeased face. Although there was nothing wrong with his words, after all, this was really his heart disease.
"Damn it, I will definitely win the championship this season!!" Ma Long clenched his fists tightly. If he didn't know his identity, everyone would have exclaimed "This guy is the Terminator" in surprise!
Standing off the court with West and others, seeing Ma Long's determined face, the three of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces!
Afterwards, under the gags of Barkley and others, what was originally an ordinary training session directly turned into a confrontation match regardless of each other!
When this training session was over, Malone, Payton and other newly joined players really satisfied Wilkens and the rest of the players!
"Lanny, what do you think of these young people?" Bruce asked Wilkens with a smile on his face. Although he had already got the answer from the other person's face, after all, he said it himself, which made Bruce even more secretly happy. !
"Very good. The skills of the three of them are very distinctive, especially Steve (Blake) and Kyle (Korver). Their organization and projection can be described as persistence!" Will Kens said with a smile on his face, and then thought of another rookie, he couldn't help showing a trace of expectation in his eyes: "If Mike (Petrus) can reasonably use his strong body and improve his shooting ability, he will become a team player. A guy with a very strong impact!!"
After hearing what Wilkens said, thinking of the unique skills of the three, especially in the previous training match, he noticed that their bodies were a little stronger, which made Bruce secretly satisfied!
The Warriors' first training session started with everyone satisfied.
As time passed, the running-in of Malone, Payton and others gradually reached the point where Wilkens, Bruce and others were satisfied!
At the end of September, when the news about Charlize Theron's pregnancy first ignited Hollywood's front page headlines, as Bruce generously admitted in front of the media, this pair of golden boys and girls suddenly received the attention of the whole United States!
In Bruce's villa, Charlize Theron was sitting on the sofa in the living room, watching the TV helplessly. Bruce, who was talking about his mood with excitement, felt unspeakably depressed!
Originally, Charlize Theron used some loose clothes to cover her figure very well, but with her belly bulging day by day and her walking posture changing, some sharp-eyed paparazzi finally discovered her tricks!
When she tried a slightly thinner version when she was picking clothes in a shopping mall, her raised belly was directly photographed by the paparazzi who were chasing after her!
In the end, although she categorically denied the news, the news was proved to be true after the paparazzi obtained her medical records by supernatural powers!
"Damn it, those guys are so hateful!!" Thinking of the aggressive pursuit of the paparazzi before, Charlize Theron wanted to bite them to death.
"Click!!"
With the sound of the door of the villa, Charlize Theron stood up directly, looked at Bruce who entered the house with a happy face, and couldn't help complaining: "Honey, why did you admit it directly?? Don't you know that? Will I not be able to work in the future??"
"Hehe, isn't this great?" Bruce walked over with a smile, gently embraced her, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, dear, I should always be by your side!"
"Come on!" Although she said no, Charlize Theron was very happy in her heart!
"Hehe, since they know about your pregnancy now, you can raise your baby at home with peace of mind!" Bruce said to Charlize Theron with a serious face. After discovering the helplessness in her eyes, he immediately He smiled and said: "Of course, if you want to experience the style of the championship team with me, I will be very excited to welcome you!"
"Go to hell!!"
Charlize Theron rolled her eyes coquettishly, and then the two talked intimately about the beauty of the future after the birth of the child!
Afterwards, as the preseason began, in the stands of the Warriors, next to Bruce, as long as it was a home game, there would always be that beautiful figure who was slightly fat due to pregnancy!
In mid-October, as the preseason games progressed, the strong combat power of the Warriors caused other teams to complain.
And their lineup, with the addition of Malone and Payton, can be described as terrifying!
Before, although Olajuwon and Barkley were also very good on the defensive end, they were obviously inferior to the combination of Payton and Malone!
In terms of the configuration of the lineup, if Billups and Nowitzki hadn't performed very well, I'm afraid Wilkens would have put Malone in the starting position!
In Bruce's office, West and Chris Mullin sat opposite him!
"Chris, your proposal is very good, but have you considered Lanny's idea?" Bruce frowned and looked at Mullin, he couldn't help hesitating about what he proposed before!
"Of course, I think Lenny will definitely agree!" Mullin said confidently, and then further explained: "Vinny (Del Negro)'s coaching ability in the "Duke" team has reached the level of an NBA assistant coach." If he can enter the team's coaching staff, I think it will be a great thing!"
"Even if Lenny accepts Vinny, who will be the head coach of the Duke?" Bruce asked immediately after thinking about Negro's achievements in leading the team.
"I think Mark Jackson can give it a try!!" Mullin said with certainty after hesitating for a while, with a gleam in his eyes.
"mark??"
Both Bruce and West looked at Mullin in surprise. In the previous summer considerations, they had informed Jackson in advance that he would not renew his contract!
Now, when they suddenly heard Mu Lin's proposal, they all felt a little puzzled and puzzled!
"Mark's position determines that he can be qualified for this position very quickly, especially his ability to read the game, which will be of great help to the Duke team!" Mullin frowned secretly, recalling that Jackson was on the ball before The role in the team slowly explained to them!
"This... Has Mark agreed to your invitation??"
Thinking of the achievements of this little point guard in the Warriors in his previous life, Bruce hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and asked!
"Uh...not yet!" Mullin said with some embarrassment, and then, under the dumbfounding gazes of Bruce and West, he said anxiously: "I think he will definitely choose to come back! "
"Hehe, I heard that many teams are interested in him!" West, who hadn't spoken for a long time, couldn't help but smile when he thought of the rumors about Jackson and other teams.
"Uh..." Mullin was completely speechless. When he wanted to bring Jackson into the Duke team, he had considered some of this issue. Everyone can't predict it!
Looking at Mullin who was silent for a while, Bruce shook his head with a smile and said, "Why don't you let us see Mark's final whereabouts?"
"Okay!" Mullin said helplessly, and then the three of them discussed some team lineup changes and some basketball affairs!
On October 10, when the Warriors ushered in the last game of the preseason against the Mavericks, everyone looked forward to this team's game this season!
"Wow, time really flies!" Looking at the table league's schedule for the 03-04 season, Bruce's eyes were full of excitement, and he couldn't help looking forward to it!
"Hehe, yes, time really flies!" West said with emotion, and then continued: "During the preseason games, the integration of Carl, Gary and others brought us It was a great surprise, especially the role of Carl in the interior, which is not much better than that of Charles before!"
"That's right, Carl is one of the top inside players. You can see how strong he is from the fact that he can still maintain an average of around 20+9 per game in more than ten seasons!" Bruce thought of the previous preseason game. In the movie, Ma Long shocked everyone with his good condition, and he couldn't help admiring the ability of this Mr. "Postman"!
"Yes, as long as we use it cautiously, Karl's power will be magnified to an astonishing level!" West said with a certain tone of excitement flashing across his face.
"The regular season is about to start in five days, let's wait and see!!" Bruce's eyes shone with excitement, full of expectations for the next new season and the desire to defend the championship!
Sorry, my stomach is still a little uncomfortable. Today is the third shift, and tomorrow the old wolf will find a way to make up for the one owed before. I hope my friends will understand, and the old wolf will not ruin his character!
