It can also be said that it is the last chance for the Chinese men's basketball team in theory.

No matter how long Yao Ming lasts, there is no way he can still play in 2016.

But even if Yao Ming can play, it will be much more difficult than winning the NBA championship.

If you want to get more opportunities, you must seize every possible opportunity.

If Yi Jianlian had still stayed in the NBA at that time, his strength would definitely be stronger than at the same time in history.

Even if you don't have the chance to play in the NBA, it's still more useful than returning to China to play in the CBA.

Yi Jianlian listened with all ears and his expression was very serious.

"I think you can consider using 3D play to transition, I'm just talking about transition.

This will allow you to reduce injuries, gain a firm foothold in the NBA, and later you can slowly enrich your offensive methods depending on the situation."

Lin Ying added a little more to his previous thoughts.

After all, no one stipulates that if you have played 3D, you have to play 3D throughout your career.

And the term "transition" is obviously easier to accept.

As expected, Yi Jianlian lowered his head in thought after listening.

Of course Lin Ying would not force him to make a decision.

He said from the beginning that it was just an idea. As for the choice, it was entirely Yi Jianlian's own business.

After finishing chatting with Yi Jianlian, Lin Ying went back to the training hall to practice more.

On the way there, he also thought more deeply about his previous thoughts.

That is whether there is any possibility for Yi Jianlian to convert to 3D.

The answer is yes.

You have to know that Yi Jianlian didn't shoot much when he first started playing. With such a tall body, he could easily attack the inside in China.

But he can train it in a short period of time and turn it into an advantage when drafting.

You say he has shooting talent or he trains hard, but if he concentrates on practicing, it won't be a problem for him to make three-pointers.

Of course, one thing is that his habit of looking down at the line when shooting three-pointers must be forcibly changed.

Everyone else is fighting for that 0.1 second, and his lowering his head and raising his head is a waste of time.

Then it's about defense.

Yi Jianlian's speed and lateral speed are very good, which makes him a high-quality help defender on the defensive end.

This is especially obvious in men's basketball games. He can often dive out to press the opponent's defender, and then return to the inside.

But his single defense ability is relatively poor, which has something to do with confrontation and defensive awareness.

However, these can all be improved.

Finally, there is another thing that may be a bit hurtful. Yi Jianlian's golf intelligence is relatively average.

If you ask him to do so many things, he may not be able to do them all well.

But if you simply ask him to defend and shoot three-pointers, and at most run pick-and-rolls, he may actually be able to excel in these aspects.

The more Lin Ying thought about it, the more he felt it was quite reliable.

Of course, these are things that have never happened in history, and only time can tell what will happen in the end.

Even whether Yi Jianlian will choose to take this path is still unknown.

Lin Ying recovered his thoughts.

Chatting with Yi Jianlian for a while activated his mathematical abilities.

Taking advantage of the excitement, I quickly went to train.

Although we played well in the first game of the preseason, it is far from time to relax!

…

In the blink of an eye, it’s already the end of October.

The Suns ended the preseason with a record of 6 wins and 1 loss.

There was an episode in the preseason. When the Suns played the Timberwolves away from home, Lin Ying suffered from severe diarrhea after drinking water and missed one game.

After all, it is the Chinese stomach that cannot bear the cold water of Americans.

He decisively offered the domestic thermos cup.

Forget about wolfberry, he would get very angry if he didn't drink wolfberry.

Back to the team, Gentry basically saw what he wanted to see through the preseason.

The improvement of Lin Ying's personal strength, the playing style of Nash and Lin Ying when they are on the court, and the arrangement of lineup rotation, etc.

The only bad news is Szczerbiak.

Szczerbiak played one game in the preseason and was sidelined due to injury. It was not until the end of the preseason that his team doctor told him that his knee could no longer support him and he could no longer play basketball.

This result came a bit suddenly.

Szczerbiak is only 32 years old, and his condition is not bad, especially his three-point shooting ability, which gets better with age and fits the Suns very well.

The results are now good and I will retire directly.

Not to mention that there is one less person in the rotation, the key is that at this stage, even if the league gives an injury exception, no one will sign you.

The Suns will either have to enter the regular season with a 14-man roster, or they'll have to draft from among those left over by others.

Cole finally chose the latter.

So it's amazing that two days before the start of the season, the Suns welcomed a new player.

Although he is the 15th member, the new team member is quite famous.

Gerald Green, nine-finger dunk king.

Green's characteristic is that he can run, jump and shoot three-pointers, and he has no defense.

But with defense, it's impossible for a player like this to survive in the NBA.

So, after some fans joked about picking up another scrap, the Suns "gathered together" 15 players to enter the new season.

The new season is about to begin, and ENPN's annual strength predictions are here as scheduled.

The Lakers, who have retained all of their championship-winning core lineup, are undoubtedly at the top of the list.

Next door, the Green Army's Big Three, who welcomed Garnett's comeback, took second place.

The Cavaliers, who reached the Finals last season, ranked third.

The Rockets, who formed the new Big Three, ranked fourth.

These four teams are basically the first group of teams in the new season and are serious favorites to win the championship.

Then there is the second tier, commonly known as those who have a chance to win the championship.

The leader of the second tier is the Magic.

The Magic failed to trade to the Nets, and everything would have been fine if they had taken advantage of the situation and re-signed Turkoglu.

Even from an open-minded perspective, that may be better than the result of acquiring Carter in history.

As a result, Moguan abruptly performed "You can't understand our operations" and was stunned because he didn't want to give Turkoglu a contract.

So they did nothing based on last season's lineup and lost a core point forward out of thin air.

It is said that this operation made Howard cursed in anger.

Think about it, the Magic once had McGrady, Hardaway, O'Neal, and Howard, so many super giants, but they didn't win a championship, and they couldn't even retain any of them.

Moguan became the league’s “well-known management team” entirely through hard power.

The Nuggets are ranked sixth on the predicted list.

Although Lin Ying and Martin are missing, the role players acquired through the trade have basically made up for it on paper.

And it can be said that this lineup is no longer suitable for Anthony's lineup.

According to Denver media reports, this year Anthony returned to Denver unusually at the end of August and began muscle-building training.

It is said that he has increased to about 107 kilograms in the new season, which has greatly enhanced his confrontation ability.

The management finally chose to keep him, which was a great moral encouragement for him.

Of course, more importantly, James has reached the finals again!

So his goal next season is naturally to win the championship in the new season, or at least reach the finals.

The Spurs are ranked seventh.

The iron-clad Duncan and the flowing soldiers.

With Ginobili returning, and the fact that they traded Richard Jefferson, one of the former Nets' trident, from the Bucks in the offseason, the Spurs' strength is still there.
