Steve Patterson and Nate McMillan looked at each other nervously at the same time.
Why didn't Oden accept the treatment and check the injury from the on-site team doctor?
Even if they have their own medical team, it is impossible to bring it with them at all times. Considering the best direction for the players' health, Oden should also be checked by the team doctor on the sidelines at this time.
Nate McMillan said seriously: "Steve, this is not just a difference in our concepts. You really can't choose this player."
Steve Patterson was silent for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Could it be because Oden has been injured frequently since the high school league, so he is so cautious?"
But how convincing is that statement, even Steve Patterson himself is playing the drums.
The first group of group confrontation is over.
Zhang Jun, Durant, Yi Jianlian, Acie Law, Jeff Green, Mike Conley and Brandon Wright each showed their strength and talent.
Yi Jianlian's soft touch and solid basic skills make everyone's eyes shine. Although the probability of becoming an All-Star player is a bit low, Pau Gasol is definitely worthy of the template.
Coupled with the huge commercial value behind Yi Jianlian, the general managers of all teams in the league have seen successful precedents in the Rockets, so Yi Jianlian's future draft picks are estimated not to be too low.
After all, record and making money are both things that a team has to consider at the same time.
After finishing the group confrontation, Zhang Jun began to pack his luggage. He has perfectly completed his joint trial training, and it is beyond his control what kind of pick he will enter the NBA.
Durant did not forget to remind Zhang Jun of the collection of photobooks that Zhang Jun promised to give him. After Yi Jianlian and Zhang Jun left each other's contact information, they left accompanied by a translator.
On the second day, Zhang Jun participated in the G League elite training camp, and a total of 72 rookies participated.
Although the elite training camp does not have the general managers and management of each team to participate, the value of helping the draft is relatively small, but compared with the semi-closed joint training, the elite training camp that is almost completely open to the outside world ushers in more media and journalists.
Even the senior executives of many sponsors came to the scene to watch the game.
Most of the executives of these sponsors have relatively superficial views on the stadium, but their purpose is not to see which player is more powerful and talented, but to see which player is the most popular and has bigger fans in the hearts of the audience Base.
This is the commercial value of a player.
When Zhang Jun appeared on the stage, he was greeted with enthusiastic cheers from all the audience. His popularity was no less than that of NBA star players. On the spot, he directly imitated Zhang Jun's breakthrough steps.
Zhang Jun scored 36 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in this 5vs5 elite training, once leading the game to a climax.
On the opposite side, Mike Conley and Jeff Green were double stars, scoring 20+7 and 22+6+3 respectively, and the two led the team to win the game.

May 26.
All rookie workouts are over.
The draft for the new season, which has been hotly debated, has cooled down a little at this time, because the NBA playoffs have entered the second half.
The Cavaliers and Pistons in the East will play the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Spurs and Jazz in the West will play the Western Conference Finals.
The entire United States is discussing whether LeBron James, who is known as the little emperor, can reach the finals for the first time in his career. After all, Wade, a rookie of the same class, has already won the championship during his rookie contract.
June 2.
The Cavaliers lead the Pistons 3:2 to hold the match point, and the game is played in Cleveland.
Diana took Zhang Jun to sit in the second row of the auditorium and said: "Now you have a high probability of getting the top two picks, and the worst is the top three picks."
"No matter what the result is, we can accept it. At this time, the popularity of the draft has dropped a lot. We should find a way to be more exposed to the public eye."
Diana's consideration has some commercial factors, not for ranking.
Looking at the deafening shouts of fans and the atmosphere driven by the live DJ, Zhang Jun obviously felt that the NBA and the NCAA were very different.
NBA arenas pay more attention to commercial factors, so you can see billboards everywhere, and there will be more official pauses. After all, advertisements must be inserted at any time.
So Diana's considerations are obviously more in line with the commercial requirements of players in the NBA.
It was the first time for Xia He to come to the NBA to watch a live game, and it was still a very confrontational game like the Eastern Conference Finals.
Seeing James throwing his arms and directly hitting the penalty area with his body and knocking down Rasheed Wallace and Richard Hamilton on the court, Xia He couldn't help but looked at Zhang Jun with a stunned expression and said .
"Are you going to play with people like them in the future?"
"When you fight, you fight, why bring a ball."
Seeing LeBron James ramming wantonly on the court, Zhang Jun was really shocked. He thought Oden was a very terrifying beast inside, but James' level of terror was far from what the opponent could compare.
James still has speed!
With speed and power, this impact, even NBA players, few dare to block directly in front of James.
Because of the impact of this game and James on him, Zhang Jun assigned himself the first task of the off-season~www.mtlnovel.com~ He wants to gain weight, so that he can increase his weight to the level when he is playing against players at the same position in the NBA Not at a disadvantage or even at an advantage.
Of course, James' body is estimated to be at the full level, and it may take a long time for Zhang Jun to improve to his level.
Finally the game is over.
The Cavaliers easily defeated the Pistons, a traditional strong team, 98:82.
With 20 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, James reached the NBA Finals for the first time in his career.
Zhang Jun watched the eastern championship awards ceremony live. James laughed from ear to ear, surrounded by a group of excited and excited teammates. The coaching staff and management also happily expressed their vision for the future, bluntly saying that James Cleveland will Always the top contender.
When the game is over.
Under the arrangement of Diana, Zhang Jun was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.
"This is a close game. Both teams have played their own styles and characteristics. The Cavaliers have the last laugh. Congratulations to them."
"After watching this game, I can't wait to stand on the NBA stage. I'm ready, hungry, thirsty and full of firepower."
Zhang Jun answered the reporter's questions according to Diana's template, not to mention how awkward it was, Zhang Jun was not used to this standard interview where neither side offends but also boasted about himself.
However, after watching James’ post-match interview, Zhang Jun wanted to call the standard directly. James’s interview is really a standard. It can be seen that he has the help of the public relations team in advance, and he is prepared in advance for possible problems. answer.
Of course, this guy James also has a high emotional intelligence, and he can deal with some problems that he has not prepared in advance with ease.
