nba: About me reincarnated as Hayate Yasuo 178 preseason starts
In his previous life, Zhang Jun was also a fan of Taylor Swift. He could play and sing most of the songs of the other party. For this reason, he specially learned piano in college. He dare not say other songs, but he can definitely sing Taylor Swift's songs very well Play and sing easily.
Taylor Swift on the side was a little petrified. He looked at Zhang Jun and said, "Can you play my song?"
"This song was only released this month, and most of the band except mine don't know it yet."
Zhang Jun nodded affirmatively, then snorted directly and said, "I'm sitting in the co-pilot with messy hair, he's holding the steering wheel with one hand, and my heart with the other..."
Although Zhang Jun's singing is average, he is obviously very familiar and sophisticated when he sings this song. The syllables and tones are very accurate and full of rhythm.
Taylor Swift opened her mouth slightly and was a little shocked.
Xia He couldn't help but looked at Zhang Jun in surprise and said, "I've known him for so many years, but I still don't know he has this ability."
Diana also refreshed her understanding of Zhang Jun again and said: "Suddenly I feel that he is not so annoying anymore."
The concert begins.
Zhang Jun appeared as an invited guest at the finale.
On the last song, Zhang Jun played the piano, and Taylor Swift sang enthusiastically in the middle of the concert in a white silk-screen dress.
The atmosphere of the whole fans was completely pushed to the highest point.
.........
In September, Zhang Jun watched the 2008 Olympic Games at home, and Kobe, who participated in the China tour, was also selected to fight with the US team.
In October, the Trail Blazers opened the training camp, which means that the new season is about to start. Zhang Jun also reported to the team on time to meet his new teammates.
This year's Trail Blazers lineup is Steve Blake, Sergio Rodriguez, Brandon Royne, Rudy Fernandez, Zhang Jun, Nicolas Batum, James Jones, LaMarcus Aldrie Odd, Channing Fry, Josh McRoberts, Joel Przybila, River LaFrentz.
After training in the team, Nate McMillan quickly readjusted the team's starting lineup and important rotations.
Point guard Steve Blake, backup point guards Sergio Rodriguez, Steve Francis.
Shooting guard Brandon Royon, backup shooting guard Rudy Fernandez.
Small forward Zhang Jun, substitute small forwards Nicholas Batum and James Jones.
Power forward Lamarcus Aldridge, backup power forwards Channing Frye and Josh McRoberts.
Center Joel Pulzbila, backup center River LaFrentz.
In team training.
Still a rookie, Nicholas Batum never took his eyes off Zhang Jun for a second.
He watched Zhang Jun remind his teammates to run all the time on the court. When his teammates scored one goal after another, he would applaud them vigorously to cheer them on.
Even Batum himself couldn't help but want to score a goal, and then he was praised by Zhang Jun.
"Although the Trail Blazers team is built with Zhang Jun, Luo Yin, and Aldridge as the core, it is obvious that the younger Zhang Jun is the leader and soul of this team."
Nicolas Batum has been in contact with basketball since he was 4 years old. Unlike most rookies this year, he has already played in professional leagues.
In the French league, Nicolas Batum averaged 28 minutes per game, scored 13 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and shot 52.3% from the field. He was called French Pippen by local fans.
In this year's draft, all the scouts gave almost the same template, that is, Nicolas Batum capped Batman Scottie Pippen.
Nicolas Batum is 20 years old this year. Strictly speaking, he is two months older than Zhang Jun. But at this time, Nicolas Batum is extremely worried about the rules of the locker room and rookie rules that he will encounter.
"Hey Nicholas, what are you still doing here?"
"Training is over, hurry back to the locker room."
Aldridge blinked his right eye and joked to Batum.
The other teammates around were all overjoyed at the moment. They looked at Batum and said with a smile: "Man, go to the locker room, don't stand here stupidly."
"Don't worry, there are no monsters in the locker room, just go and see."
"Haha, there are no monsters, but there are still a few beasts. Batum, you'd better take a bath in advance."
"It's all a process, and you have to get used to it."
Batum took a deep breath when he saw his teammates laughing and watching the excitement without taking too much trouble.
"Forget it, anyway, every rookie has this day, let them make fun of it."
"Do as the Romans do, I have to quickly adapt to the environment and rules of the NBA."
After making up his mind, Batum packed his equipment and walked directly to the locker room.
The teammates around him also ran towards the locker room ahead of time after seeing this scene. After seeing this scene, Batum, who had made up his mind, felt a little regretful.
He is not like these native Americans, he is from France, in this unfamiliar place, he has no friends, no family, not even a person to talk to.
So this situation and the picture made Batum feel very uncomfortable and worried.
"Um?!"
In a blink of an eye, Batum realized that he had reached the door of the locker room, too fast.
He plucked up the courage to raise his hand to knock on the door. After thinking about it for a while, he put his ear on the door and listened carefully. After finding that the silence inside was a bit scary, Batum swallowed again.
"Hello everyone, I'm Nicolas Batum from France. I'm very happy to be your teammate."
Nicholas Batum opened the locker room door, closed his eyes and quickly finished the speech he had prepared in advance.
After not hearing anything for a long time, Batum opened his eyes. The teammates were all busy with their own affairs, some were changing clothes, some were applying ice, and some were still practicing shooting.
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Batum felt more uncomfortable than being bullied by his teammates at the moment, he let out a sigh of relief, and then walked towards his closet.
"oh!!"
Batum had only taken two steps forward when Sergio Rodriguez and Steve Francis, who were standing on both sides, each held a bucket of ice water and poured it on Batum's head.
"Welcome to the NBA, kid!"
Francis said very arrogantly, and then glanced at the few people around him.
Steve Blake, Channing Fry, and Josh McRoberts dug out the ice water prepared in advance from nowhere and joined the ranks.
Batum, who had just regained his strength, was attacked by ice water again, and this time it was so cold that he screamed in pain, yelling omg.
"Welcome to the Trail Blazers, man."
Zhang Jun stretched out his hand, and Batum also stretched out his hand. The two held hands tightly, and then stood up.
Luo Yin threw the towel behind him to Batum and said, "From now on, you belong to our big family. This is your closet, next to mine."
Batum wiped his body and nodded repeatedly.
Aldridge suggested: "I think we should go out to eat something tonight, before the season starts."
Batum immediately nodded sensiblely and said, "Let me take everyone out for a meal. Do you have any recommendations?"
Zhang Jun patted Batum on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry about it. There is an old guy who organizes to bully you and will pay for this party."
"That guy has plenty of money, too."
Francis came over, gave Batum a high-five gesture, and said, "This is my apology for teasing you. Let's go out together tonight!"
.........
After the training camp was over, Diana immediately took Zhang Jun to complete several sets of endorsement advertisements and signing contracts. After the completion, Zhang Jun couldn't help but look at the system immediately.

"Last season, including the training with Kobe, they all intentionally put my three-pointers, which also prevented me from helping the Trail Blazers go further."
"Now is the time to address this issue."
Zhang Jun looked at the gold coins, and countless lol equipment appeared in front of him immediately. He looked directly at one of the equipment without hesitation, and then confirmed it.
Rapid Fire Cannon: Increase speed by 2 points, increase athletic burst by 2 points, increase long-range shooting ability by 5 points, extend the long-range shooting distance of the skill Marksman to two meters beyond the three-point line, and increase the long-range shooting ability by an additional 5 points when shooting open shots. Remarks: When there is no defensive player three meters in front of you, you are in an open shooting state.
"In this way, my three-point shooting ability has directly increased to 80 points, which is already slightly higher than the league average."
"And also gained the ability to shoot two meters away from the three-point line, my three-point threat will be even more terrifying."
.........
October 8.
The nba preseason begins.
In the first three games, Zhang Jun didn't get a chance to play, and Luo Yin and Aldridge led the team to find the touch on the court.
Luo Yin played casually and scored 14 and 18 points in the two games respectively.
Aldridge also played two games, scoring 8 and 16 points respectively.
Neither played more than 20 minutes per game, and coach Nate Mike Miller worked on the rookies throughout.
Game four.
On the commentary stand, Yu Jia said: "In the first three games, the Trail Blazers did not activate Zhang Jun on the roster, so many of our fans did not see Zhang Jun play."
"But tonight, Zhang Jun has already appeared in the team roster, but I don't know when he will play."
Su Qun also looked forward to it and said: "In the past, when those rookies experienced their first off-season, they would do everything possible to make up for their shortcomings in the NBA last season."
"After all, most of these players played in the college league before, and they were immediately promoted to the professional league. It is still a stage at the level of the NBA. They will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable."
"Hey, although Zhang Jun was very adaptable to the NBA last season, he didn't look like a rookie at all~www.novelbuddy.com~ But he also exposed some problems and shortcomings on the court. I believe this Hugh He must have improved himself this season."
"It's just that the effect of the improvement has yet to be verified by the game. This is also the meaning of the preseason game."
"Otherwise, Coach Nate McMillan has absolutely no need for Zhang Jun to appear on a stage like the preseason."
on the pitch.
The Blazers did not have Zhang Jun in the starting lineup. Although Su Qun and Yu Jia had expected this, they were disappointed after confirming it.
The Trail Blazers' starting lineup is Steve Blake, Rudy Fernandez, Nicolas Batum, Channing Frye and Joel Przybilla.
The starting lineup of the opposing Rockets is Aaron Brooks, Carl Landry, Kyle Lowry, James White and Chuck Hayes.
The game begins.
The Trail Blazers played a bottom line eagle loop, Steve Blake scored and scored, and the ball was given to Channing Fry on the outside, who made a steady three-pointer.
Su Qun said: "Although the three cores of the Trail Blazers are not on the court, the offensive tactics of the Trail Blazers are still very smooth. This team is a team with a well-established offensive system."
"They are good at combining inside and outside, good at playing high forts on the outside, and their three-pointers are also top-notch in the league."
Hearing this, Yu Jia laughed and said, "In the entire Trail Blazers team, Zhang Jun is probably the one with the worst three-point shooting ability."
"Last season, Zhang Jun averaged less than 2 three-point shots per game, and he only took 107 shots in the whole season, and hit 35 of them, with a shooting percentage of less than 33%."
"Although the shooting percentage is not very eye-catching, but the number of shots is too small and the sample is not sufficient. Generally speaking, in the playoffs last season, Zhang Jun's three-pointer is a point that most teams are willing to let go. "
