Chapter 663 The Welcome Ceremony in Miami
On the afternoon of October 13, the Cavaliers arrived in Miami in advance.
In the regular season debut, with the runner-up against the Heat, the defectors are in the Heat, the Cavaliers management attaches great importance to this game.
Putting aside the grudges and hatreds of the two teams, the Cavaliers completed reconstruction this year and the starting lineup has undergone a major change.
The starter chef became Qian Chen, and the starter drinker was replaced by Irving, which was equivalent to half of the starting lineup in one breath, which was undoubtedly a huge adjustment.
Although Qian Chen and Irving performed extremely well in the team training match, especially Qian Chen's strength shocked the Cavaliers management.
But it is difficult to truly judge without formal competition testing.
Qian Chen and Irving's debut was crucial, and their performance marked the success of the Cavaliers' reconstruction work at a huge cost.
Especially the Heat's home court is still the famous visiting team hell.
For this reason, the management of the team arrived in Miami one day in advance to adapt to the venue in advance.
However, although the plan is good, there will be human factors that will cause changes in the plan.
For example, now.
Altman is discussing borrowing venue training with Heat general manager Pat Riley through his mobile phone.
"WTF! Riley, we made an appointment yesterday. You have agreed to lend us the venue for a night. Why did you suddenly regret it?"
"Sorry, Altman, I don't know that this will happen. Now the engineers are working hard to repair the equipment, but they expect it will take at least 30 hours to repair it, so the agreement between us can only be cancelled."
He said sorry, but Riley's tone did not mean anything apologizing, it was just a tone of an official voice.
"Thirty hours? What should we do if our team's adaptation training?"
"I'm sorry, maybe you can relax. You know, Miami is not as good as you Cleveland. The nightlife here is very rich, that's it. I wish you a happy evening."
Then the phone beeped and hung up.
"Wait! Riley Riley"
Altman fed him a few unwillingly, but only a busy voice came from the other end of the phone.
“F**K!”
Altman almost smashed his phone.
On the other side, in the office of the Heat venue general manager, Riley hung up his phone and looked down at the quiet and empty place below. It is said that he was in the repair venue, with a sneer of contempt on his face.
Generally speaking, it is very common for the visiting team to arrive at the home team's city in advance to train.
The general manager of the team will not offend others because of such trivial matters. After all, there are only 30 teams in the league. If you look up, you will be able to ask others one day.
However, it is obvious that in Riley's mind, the Cavaliers, who were once forcibly robbed by him, were not included.
Apart from the old fox Popovich and the smart guy Morey of the Rockets, Riley did not take anyone else seriously, especially the Cavaliers, who was labeled as a loser and a loser in his heart.
If such a team is offended, it will be offended, and it is no big deal.
The Heat's goal this year is to win the championship, which is different from a team that is determined to compete for the No. 1 pick.
Unable to make an appointment to the venue for adaptive training in advance. After discussing with head coach Mike Brown, Altman had to announce a day off and instructed the team members not to spend the night outside.
Most of the team members immediately cheered. Cleveland is a small city, and there are very few nightclubs. On the contrary, Miami is a bustling metropolis, and the most important thing is all kinds of nightclubs.
For the black buddies, nightclubs are their second home, and they can be suffocated in a countryside like Cleveland.
A group of people immediately walked out of the hotel in groups of three or three, with their arms around their backs.
Only a few starting main players, including Qian Chen, and the female dessert masters in the team, stayed.
Seeing this, Altman and Mike Brown looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Everyone knows that alcohol will reduce the status of the team members, but they are all adults, so it is impossible to take care of others for 24 hours.
Besides, a considerable number of people in the team just regard this as a profession. Now it is normal for get off work hours and should be relaxed. Those who really join the NCA in order to challenge themselves are aliens.
Especially most of NCA chefs are black buddies. As we all know, although black buddies have excellent physical talents, they are self-disciplined...
In fact, Irving also wanted to go with him, and someone had already sent him an invitation. As a result, Qian Chen just glanced at him with a "light" look, and Irving immediately refused the other party's invitation righteously.
No words all night.
On the 14th, Qian Chen pulled Owen to borrow the hotel kitchen for basic training all day.
The 15th is coming soon.
This day, Miami was like a festival, especially near the Heat venue, with a large number of kitchen fans gathering here, which seriously blocked traffic.
There is no way, Qian Chen had three other major leagues in the NBA in his previous life, diverting a large number of viewers. The most popular thing in the United States in this world is the NCA, no doubt.
The entire NCA is equivalent to the combination of four major alliances.
Not to mention, each team's venues start at 100,000 passenger capacity, and some big cities such as Los Angeles and New York have even reached an astonishing 150,000.
Due to too much traffic, Altman had to decide to go to the Heat's venue in advance.
Despite this, the Cavaliers bus was still blocked on the road, and finally had to ask the traffic police to help open the road.
The group got off the bus and walked towards the venue. They happened to meet a group of Heat's kitchen fans who also came out of the parking lot.
"Hey, Cleveland's country bumpkins! Thank you for sending His Majesty the Emperor to Miami!"
"Tonight, the Big Three will definitely kick your ass hard!"
"That person named Qian Chen, the Flash will teach you what NCA is! You should go home and have a breastfeeding!"
All kinds of dirty words were spread to the Cavaliers, especially Qian Chen, the unknown No. 1 pick, who received special attention.
Altman and Mike Brown immediately looked at Qian Chen with a worried look on their faces.
No matter how good the cooking skills and the high potential are, Qian Chen is just a boy under 18 years old. Can he withstand these things?
However, Qian Chen was calmer than they thought.
As it turns out, they thought too much, and they didn't see how many such battles Qian Chen had experienced from Japan to France.
If we could win by our mouth, this world would have been occupied by the kings with strong mouths.
In the final analysis, competition still depends on strength.
So Qian Chen never makes meaningless talk, he will only slap the other person in the face with practical actions.
Of course, this does not mean that Qian Chen is not angry.
Chapter completed!
