On the night of October 1st.
There were still three days before the preseason, and Hoeberg finally decided on a new lineup for the upcoming year.
The arrival of the preseason meant that the brutal competition was over. The people who came for the Bulls 'training camp were directly eliminated. Only two people could become part of the team in the future.
After the coach confirmed the final list, those who had been eliminated left the training hall with dejection and unwillingness. Lu Yi was deeply moved. After today, these people would announce the end of their dream-seeking journey for the next year. Some of them might return to the NBA League, some might return to the European League, and some might even lose basketball and their skills and return to ordinary people to find other jobs and stop playing basketball.
No matter what, Lu Yi still felt a little uncomfortable. He was lucky to have obtained the system. Otherwise, he would not even be qualified to be eliminated.
Because of his talent and ability, Lu Yi was highly regarded by the head coach. He was now the spearhead of the substitutes 'lineup and even had a set of tactics for him.
Today was supposed to be his birthday, but he had to encounter such a cruel scene. Some of his teammates were afraid of his shoulders and comforted him.
Kyle Quinn put his arm around his shoulder and said with a serious expression,""Noob, stop looking. This happens every year. You'll get used to it in the future.”
Lance Thomas, who was behind him, nodded in agreement. He looked helpless."They can only blame themselves for not being strong enough, or for not meeting Hoyberg's requirements. In the end, they could only be eliminated.”
"In the entire league, only 400 or so people can survive, but every year, tens of thousands of professional players come to chase their dreams and look for opportunities. The cruelty of competition actually happened every day. Today's scene was just a microcosm.”
The two of them came to the Bulls with Lu Yi in the trade with Ty gibson. Although they had never seen Lu Yi before and did not know him before, they did not even pay attention to a rookie like the latter.
But because they were players involved in the same deal, they seemed to be closer to each other and formed a small circle. The three of them usually chatted with Robin Lobecz and Gerian Grant the most, and there was a faint phenomenon of the Knicks faction.
Amongst them, the best talent and strength of the team was the one with the best talent and strength. He was faintly more concerned by the team. Even so, they still treated Lu Yi like a younger brother and took care of him many times.
"Let's go and practice your European footwork…"
Thomas couldn't help but continue to be pretentious and emotional. He directly pulled the latter to half the court and continued training.
Dwyane Wade's Footstep was actually the European Footstep. It was just that his steps were faster, fiercer, more explosive, and more confusing, so it was affectionately called the Footstep by the domestic fans.
However, in the Alliance, it was called the European Step.
Ever since Lu Yi received this footwork as a reward, he would practice extra every day in order to adapt and familiarize himself with it. Over time, Thomas and the others, who had a good relationship with him, became training props.
He only needed to stand under the basket and do all kinds of horizontal moves or defense.
Lu Yi practiced this footwork every day, and even received personal guidance from Wade. As a result, his proficiency increased during this period of time. Now, he could make European steps from all angles under the basket and easily score points.
Watching the three of them practice on their own, Wade, Rondo, and the others who had yet to leave the stadium looked at them.
Lu Yi's hard work was changing almost every day. They all saw it and admired him very much. Among the rookies they had seen, there were many who worked hard, but there were few like Lu Yi. After training with the team, he would go to the strength room. He would always be tired and had to go through all kinds of self-abuse training methods. It was shocking.
They thought that this rookie had a stubborn personality, and he wouldn't stop until he was exhausted.
"If this kid doesn't succeed, there won't be anyone in this world who succeeds.”Long Duo praised.
"I hope he doesn't train himself badly. That's not worth it.”Wade said worriedly.
“em...”
Rondo frowned. He sat on the floor to rest and relax while thinking about the Bulls 'future.
"Our team is not too strong. I hope he can grow up quickly and help.”
"Rajen, you're the same as me. We're both people with rings. Why, brother, do you still want to work hard for the championship?”Wade laughed when he heard his sigh.
"Of course, I work hard for the championship every day.”Londo made a moaning appearance, looking very proud.
After he left the Celtics, he became a famous homeless man in the league. This homeless man still had a ring and was once the core of the team. Even so, he still had a strong obsession for honor in his heart.
No one would complain about having too many rings.
Unfortunately, because of his personality, he could not seem to stay on a certain team for long. He had to change places almost every season.
Wade smiled silently. He didn't have much hope for the Bulls 'results in the new season because the new lineup had obvious flaws and no presentable paint. If the inside players were not strong, they would be easily targeted. If they wanted better results, they would have to reinforce them.
This summer, he left Miami for a big contract. Fortunately, the Bulls 'management was generous enough to sign him for two years for $47.5 million, the highest annual salary in his life.
Therefore, he did not ask for much at this time. He only hoped that the little guy who was diligently practicing his footwork under the basket in front of him could surprise them.
As for the rest, he could only express that he would try his best.
Like Rondo, he was waiting for the new season to arrive.
