Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy-Two: Overtly Coquettish and Underhanded! Being Stronger Is Not an Illusion!

Although he was ready to be hurt by Lin Yi, the Knicks' physical trainer Mark Duber couldn't help but swear when he gave Lin Yi a physical test.

After a summer of hard training, Lin Yi's weight in the new season has reached 118.9 kg, with a body fat rate of 8.8%. And most importantly, Mark Duber feels that Lin Yi's explosive power seems to be stronger?

"Second Battalion Commander" Gallinari told his new teammates very experienced: "I suggest you don't look at Lin's physical test data to find yourself boring, after all, he has always been single!"

The new recruits didn't understand what it means to be single, so when Gallinari was about to explain to everyone, he got a ruthless iron elbow from Lin Yi!

O'Neill slipped away after reading Lin Yi's physical test data.

The fat man who ran back said to Lin Yi, "Why don't we bench press each other?"

Lin Yi smiled and patted the fat man's shoulder, "Shaq, why don't we go back and forth? Hey, don't run, we can still compete for three-pointers. If it doesn't work, what about free throws? You score one and hit me How about two?"

O'Neal: "..."

Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni was initially worried that it would affect Lin Yi's speed after seeing Lin Yi get stronger, but after the first day of five-on-five offensive and defensive training, D'Antoni was ready to pop a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

Son, really...

In addition to Lin Yi, Livingston, whom Lao De didn't like before, also shined, and the defenders facing him couldn't guard against him, because Livingston didn't play breakthroughs with you.

He worked hard on jump shots according to what Lin Yi said. On the first day of joint training, Livingston's hand felt good. Although he was not as stable as the future, he could already become a key part of the Knicks' arsenal.

The most uncomfortable thing was O'Neal. To be honest, O'Neal didn't want to accept the fact that he was a substitute, but he couldn't help it. The audience was five-on-five. O'Neal was completely desperate when he switched to Lin Yi's opponent.

"If I were ten years younger, I would definitely slam dunk on your head!" O'Neal is worthy of being a "living treasure", and the Knicks' locker room is destined to be more joyful.

Lin Yi's counterattack was also very simple, "Shaq, don't lie to yourself, you already weighed more than 135 kilograms when you were 27 years old!"

O'Neal: "..."

After the joint training, D'Antoni felt that he needed to summarize a lot,

For example, Danny Green, to be honest, Lao De felt that if Gallinari dared to die again this season, he would let Green start to stimulate Gallinari.

Danny Green's three-pointer really came out. D'Antoni is so gratified. He was optimistic about Green last season, and Danny Green is a very good wing defender. The Knicks' defensive champions are terrible. Even D'Antoni said frankly that the Knicks' defensive efficiency in the new season will definitely surprise people.

Old Germany now admits that this Knicks team is indeed stronger than last season's Knicks.

Because tomorrow will be the media open day, D'Antoni didn't let the players practice for too long on the first day of joint training. After the training, he left Lin Yi alone.

"Lin, you came up with a lot of ideas for this lineup, right?" D'Antoni said.

"Yes, Mr. Coach." Lin Yi said frankly.

"But now I feel that the competition for the second and third positions is a bit fierce." D'Antoni's old problem has been committed again. After all, the main force is a disease that needs to be cured.

"It's very simple. Sean Battier can be moved to the fourth position. Coach, we must increase the rotation of players in the new season. We were lucky last season and did not encounter extensive injuries. But this season you also As you can see, defensive counterattacks and switching offenses will be our basic tactics. Once the defensive intensity is raised, injuries are prone to occur, and if our physical fitness declines, our defensive quality will also drop a lot.”

"I suggest that we distribute our playing time more evenly, because we have more people playing!" Yes, the Knicks have more people! This is really not Lin Yi joking, because the thickness of the Knicks lineup is simply insane!

And basically every player can plug and play. Lin Yi persuaded O'Neal to play as a substitute. Although this "shark" is old, he can still make waves in the limited playing time, and the Knicks have no Don't worry about retreating. This group of people can definitely persist until O'Neal retreats.

At this time, the NBA did not have an "offside rule". If it didn't work, the Knicks could still use foul tactics. Anyway, the Knicks have a lot of people!

D'Antoni also noticed it, so he decided to develop the habit of helping Lin Yi foul during this joint training period. As long as Lin Yi is not allowed to encounter a foul crisis, this Knicks team will not have any major problems .

...

On the media day of the second day, with the departure of Milicic and David Lee, the appearance of the "New York Beauty Team" has dropped a lot. When taking makeup photos, D'Antoni asked Lin Yi to stand in the center , although the Knicks owner Dolan wants to spend money, but there is no way, Lin Yi will not let him spend money, so New York in the new season also played the slogan "One man, defend one city".

The Knicks teammates will not be dissatisfied with this slogan, because Lin Yi gave everyone gifts on the first day. Lin Yi will make crazy shots in the new season. How can he not improve the team relationship?

The reporters were very pessimistic about the Knicks, especially in the open training games, the Knicks played very average, as if everyone was out of shape.

In fact, the reason for not being in the state is very simple. After all, this is a brand new lineup, and it is impossible for these defensive champions to be cruel to their teammates, right?

After all, it was just a demonstration, and the iron blood of the Knicks Iron Blood Heavenly Group was not used to deal with their own people.

In the end, I didn't expect the reporters to look down on the Knicks because of this, which made Lin Yi very happy. Let's look down, the more you look down, the more surprised you will be when the Knicks play well.

When interviewed by the media, the reporters who were tortured by Lin Yi last year were obviously more alert, "Lin, what kind of results do you think the Knicks can achieve in the new season."

The reporters had prepared all kinds of follow-up questions, but Lin Yi's answer still exceeded their expectations.

"Champion!" Lin Yi said seriously.

Fuck!

The reporters were happy, but they were happy for no more than three seconds...

"Because Tang Shuai once said, never underestimate the heart of a championship! Therefore, the goal of the Knicks in the new season is to strive for the championship without being at the bottom!" Lin Yi said.

reporter:"......"

What the hell is not at the bottom!

Strive for the championship without bottoming out?

Peat!

"Lin, New York's slogan for the new season is one person defends one city. May I ask if the Knicks' slogan is aimed at the 'Little Emperor' LeBron James?" It's fun!

"This reporter, you are too much! How can you be so narrow-minded? If I say that I will take 30 shots per game, am I targeting my idol Kobe? Do I say that I want to participate in the slam dunk contest? I mean you all should retire and go home? After all, the championship must be mine." Lin Yi also pretended to have a very painful expression.

"This reporter, you have disappointed me so much. Am I wrong to even breathe now?" Lin Yi's words made the reporter ashamed and lowered his head in shame.

It is true that I am too narrow-minded, Lin Yi is so right, I am speechless!

However, the reporters still believe that the Knicks should have no problem reaching the playoffs in the new season, but want to go far? Let's forget about this lineup...
