One section is before the knee injury and one section is after the knee injury.

Before his knee injury, Martin could challenge the "four power forwards" at the beginning of the century.

On the defensive end, with his excellent jumping and lateral movement ability, he has excellent defensive ability, blocks a lot of shots, and is a brutal shot-catcher.

On the offensive end, in addition to dunks, his low-post offensive skills are also underestimated.

When Kidralis shot 24+17 in the series, he suppressed Rasheed Wallace, one of the "four power forwards", and helped the team reach the finals. He was once with Tim Big before his injury.

Demon King Duncan killed them equally.

In his first season with the Nuggets, he averaged 15.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, becoming the second-leading scorer on Anthony's team.

After the knee injury, during the 2005-06 season, his performance declined significantly.

This is also normal. People who rely on physical fitness to play will find it difficult to get back after being injured.

The same goes for Martin, and the same goes for Griffin.

Last season, Martin even played 2 games before being reimbursed for the season.

So the new season will be a big test for him.

But what is more interesting is that Martin and Lin Ying are completely trained in their own way.

Although Lin Ying's personality has changed, she is still not very good at actively communicating with others.

As for Martin, he may simply not be interested in newbies.

He plays the game very passionately, but he is also very crazy, which is in line with his personality.

A week later, members of the Nuggets team came one after another.

Anthony was the only one who was late, but fortunately he was only two days late.

And he looks a bit plump.

After playing in the America's Cup, he traveled to Europe to relax.

You should have a lot of fun playing with this body type.

But Karl didn't say anything.

It seems that Lin Ying's previous impression was correct. Carl should be gentler than rumored...

What a gentle ghost!

After the training camp officially started, Lin Ying found that his impression of Karl had been overturned.

Because old Carl really doesn't hold back his words when he scolds people.

Compared with old Carl, Barnes's speech can only be regarded as a reprimand at best...

The following is what Old Carl cursed: Beep beep beep beep beep...

Lin Ying felt that Anthony was not scolded because Karl Lao was used to it every summer when he came back.

Of course, Lin Ying has a smart little head, and he rarely makes mistakes on the court, and it is not his turn to be scolded.

And don't tell me, even though there are swear words in your ears, the team's training efficiency is very high.

Including Anthony, the execution of the team members is also very good.

Karl's coaching has a certain style.

Then it was the first training session, and Lin Ying roughly understood Karl's positioning on the team.

It was similar to what O'Connor told him before, but there was a difference.

In other words, the Nuggets and the bench have two different styles of play.

At that time, it was more of a positional warfare attack, supplemented by a small amount of flanking ball carriers.

The substitute period is mainly based on flanking the ball holder, supplemented by a small amount of positional warfare offense.

Lin Ying also admired Karl's tactical arrangement.

The young commander may have parallel imports, but the old commander at least has goods in his stomach.

These two playing styles are completely player-specific.

Among them, Iverson is short in height and likes to gamble and steal, while Anthony is generally mobile and not good at assisting defense and doesn't like to defend.

With these two big guys around, it's a bit difficult to play the trick he's best at.

Moreover, during the Asian Championships, although Karl liked Lin Ying very much, it was basically impossible for him to arrange for Lin Ying to fight.

Martin and Nene are both owners with an annual salary of tens of millions, and both are at their peak.

But among the substitutes, Najera and Kleiza's defense is on line, coupled with Lin Ying's excellent defensive ability, and Smith, a fast break weapon.

His favorite tactic of flanking the ball carrier for defensive counterattacks is completely feasible.

But there is one thing that is different from what O'Connor said originally.

Because of the trade for Camby, the Nuggets couldn't sign anyone because they had a four-million contract over the cap, so the team didn't have enough insiders.

He and Najera partner inside, and he should be considered the fifth position in terms of height.

However, the impact is actually not that big.

Because Karl's tactic is to flank the ball holder, if there is a big man sitting in the paint, Najera will basically go to the top and he will help defend.

After the training session, Karl seemed to be in a good mood and put on his gentle face again.

Part of the reason is that his tactics can finally be developed, and part of it is Martin's state.

Martin, who has returned from a serious injury, seems to be in pretty good shape, especially his lateral speed, which has not declined too much due to the injury.

This is the best news for the Nuggets.

Lin Ying can't beat him, and Nene is a top-notch defensive lineman. He can point to Martin to wipe the butts of Iverson and Anthony.

This is consistent with the history that Lin Ying knows.

Historically, in the 2007-2008 season, although Martin's personal statistics were not at their peak, he hit a career-high shooting percentage of 53.8%.

Moreover, during his games, he often switched defenses endlessly, even guarding Kobe Bryant many times.

With him here, our defense should not be so annoying.

…

After training, the players returned to the locker room to rest.

The atmosphere was quite harmonious, with a group of tattooed men, like a gang party.

But Anthony did not come.

Anthony and O'Connor went to practice some physical fitness.

Although every time he comes back in the summer, he will inevitably gain weight, but he can basically lose weight before the season.

Being able to be fat or thin is also an ability...

Lin Ying originally couldn't get into it.

Just when he was thinking about how to take the initiative like Yao Ming said, Iverson sat over and started chatting with him.

This actually surprised others in the locker room.w

Because Iverson usually doesn't talk much.

Then, other members of the team came over to chat with him.

Iverson's status in the league is very high.

It's not that he has the same gangster attributes as Anthony, but that he is the idol of countless black players.

Furrows and big gold chains, these are the B trends led by Iverson, not to mention his encouragement to those players who came from the slums.

Ever since, Lin Ying just "melted" into it.

While they were chatting, O'Connor came over and called Lin Ying out.

He came to Lin Ying to discuss sneaker numbers.

As expected, JR Smith refused to give up No. 1, so Lin Ying had to choose another number.

In addition to the retired numbers 2/33/44/40/432, and the numbers 12 and 55 that are about to be retired, we also exclude the numbers currently used by the team.

Lin Ying actually didn't have as many numbers to choose from as he thought.

Iverson's No. 3, Anthony's No. 15, Martin's No. 4, Nene's No. 31...

In fact, Lin Ying doesn't have to be number 1, and it doesn't do any good to have a quarrel with his teammates when he first joined the team.

and……

Isn’t it beautiful to get one more jersey number so that when you retire, you can retire two jerseys?

He thought for a while and gave the number:
Chapter completed!
