Because Stephen's signing was on the same day as Kevin Durant, and then I met him in the physical examination center, and the two of them both stayed at the hotel booked by the team. They met several times, because there were other people around them. , Kevin Durant and Stephen both nodded, and Stephen was very curious about this introverted and somewhat unsmiling newcomer children's shoes.

Apart from himself, he is probably the biggest player in the Sonics. Although this guy is very thin, it seems that Kevin is all made of the same model, but there is a difference in height, whether it is Kevin Johnson, It's still Kevin McHale, it's still Kevin Garnett, it's still the Kevin Durant in front of us, they all have a noodle-like figure, yes, there is also a Kevin Martin.

However, although this guy is long and thin, he is a natural material for playing basketball. Although he doesn't look so thick, his muscles are very strong. His wingspan is astonishing. According to legend, he has a wingspan of [-] meters, which seems to be the same even if he doesn't.

Regarding this future teammate, Stephen did not inquire more, because there is no need for it. If you can't even convince a rookie with your own ability, it is useless to inquire in advance. The right to speak and the position of the boss do not come from reputation alone. , It is not something that can be determined by the management, the most important thing is strength.

Since Stephen doesn't plan and doesn't need to participate in the team's summer league, because almost all the main players will not play, and there is no point in participating. If you want to adjust the lineup and wait for the preseason game, Stephen thought that he would not play with Durant in the summer. There was no contact. I didn't expect that the two of them met when Stephen was at the team's training ground that day.

Kevin Durant was practicing shooting. When he saw Stephen walking over in a training suit, he just glanced at him and didn't say much. He originally entered a rebuilding team as the No. [-] pick. The original core of the team left the team. , will definitely be trained as a core player, but who knows that the team has recruited another big-name player, which makes his core dream suddenly shattered.

There is a saying that every American has a dream of a hero in his heart, who can turn the tide and save the whole world by himself, so Hollywood blockbusters always have this plot, because he is the most in line with American thinking.

This heroism is rooted in everyone's heart, and on the court, they lead the team to victory with one person's strength. Comments such as heroic temperament and lack of leadership awareness were sent to the other party.

Praise does not mean approval. A team is best composed of team-type or engineer-type players, but there must be a hegemony mentality full of heroism and no one else. When you step on the court, you must be like Like a beast, you regard the court as your territory, and neither your opponent nor your teammate should challenge your dignity and authority.

That's why Jordan can achieve great success and have global influence, because he has all the acclaimed temperament and performance, leading the team to keep moving forward (although it seems that the process is a bit long now), but it was very important in that era. Normal, and then won three championships in a row.

After that, he retreated bravely and the team's record declined, which further highlighted his indispensability. Then he came back again and won three consecutive championships. Without his withdrawal and comeback, perhaps the Bulls would have won eight championships. Of course, it may have been separated and disintegrated long ago.

But even if he won eight consecutive championships, there is no better proof of his worth than him doing. Without his Bulls, he didn't even make it to the finals. Just a team above mid-range.

No matter how exaggerated other players and Phil Jackson are, but this Bulls team is only Jordan’s. Without Jordan, the Bulls are nothing. When Kevin Durant was selected by the Sonics, he was already thinking What kind of height will the team reach under its own leadership.

But what happened later made him wake up from his longing. The Sonics have been unable to sign him for a long time, even after sending Lewis away. His agent told him that because the team was operating another important Incident, so his signing was ranked second. By the time he learned that Stephen was coming, the Spurs had already completed the deal with the Sonics.

As the most famous player in the past two years, Stephen's reputation is known to everyone who is eager to enter the league to make a lot of money, especially when Stephen only entered the league as a second-round pick, it is even more so. his charm.

It is not uncommon for a general manager to lose his eye, but the general managers of all [-] teams must not lose his eye. The Spurs are only slightly better because they used the first round on other players, otherwise Stephen should Will spend three to four careers in their team. If this is the case, the Spurs just completed the renewal of the team, but now they can only send such excellent players.

Kevin Durant has strong confidence in his own abilities, but compared with the MVP of the two consecutive finals, he still dare not be so arrogant. If there is a conflict in C's personal position, it is not So serious, what Durant is dissatisfied with is that Stephen took away the core position of his own team.

Although when the two met, Stephen always had a smile on his face, which seemed to be very in line with the American impression of the Chinese, but as Durant who has seen Stephen's performance on the court, if it is because of this It would be a huge mistake to underestimate Stephen, or to treat Stephen as a real Chinese.

Stephen is on the court, especially after his second season comeback, he is the Spurs' first choice for offense. Although his assists have only dropped by [-] points, anyone who has watched the game knows clearly that Stephen During this period, he played the role of the Spurs' offensive terminator.

Because everyone knows that he is leaving here, so no one cares about him. He almost accounts for more than a quarter of the Spurs' shots. You must know that the Spurs are a relatively balanced team. Team.

At the same time, Stephen's playing style is also very tough. He likes to head-to-head, and likes to confront the opponent's core players on both offensive and defensive ends. In almost any contest with players of any level, Stephen does not fall behind. His state has almost no ups and downs. A media reporter once said: "The only factor limiting Stephen's scoring is his scoring**."

Such a player left the Spurs because of the core treatment and the position of the boss. Although Kevin Durant was holding his breath, he had no choice but to encourage himself secretly in his heart and was determined to use it. It is manifested as earning status by oneself, and let the team know who is the real future of the team.

Kevin Durant is less than 20 years old, but Stephen is only a little over [-] years old. The age difference between the two is almost negligible, so Durant can only rely on his own performance to beat Stephen. I increased my own training intensity, but I didn't expect that the two of them would just meet together.

Stephen was on one side of the court, and Durant was on the other side of the court. The two were back to back. Only the two of them were empty in the four training grounds. There will be balls landing on the hoop or on the backboard.

When Stephen came, Durant actually only came for a while, and he hadn’t finished throwing the ball in one ball box. However, after he started throwing the ball in the second box for a while, he heard the push from over there. The sound of the ball box, and just after he shot the second box, he heard the shot stop there too.

Durant couldn't calm down anymore. When Stephen started to shoot again, he peeked from a distance for a while. He found that Stephen's shooting was too fast, and this fast was all the process, picking the ball, taking off , shot, the whole process was done in one go, without any pause at all, Durant estimated that with his own rhythm and speed, Stephen can throw three balls in the time he throws two balls, and this is still his own When the speed is accelerated, and in this case, the hit rate of oneself cannot be guaranteed.

Is this the strength of a professional player?Just because of the speed of his shots, Stephen hit Durant, because watching the game on TV is impossible to watch so directly, Stephen is still throwing the ball to the basket over there, as if he didn't notice that there was already Same as stopping.

Durant soon resumed training. At this time, he couldn't help speeding up his shooting rhythm and shooting speed. Correspondingly, more balls missed, and he only shot a box of balls. Durant felt that he His breathing began to become rapid, and at the same time, his body felt tired.

Durant really wanted to slow down, but he saw that Stephen was still shooting the ball as if he didn't realize it. Now that Stephen's shots have surpassed himself, he didn't seem to be aware of it. There is not even a little sweat on the forehead, and the breathing is still so smooth that it is invisible.

"Don't rush to improve your shooting rhythm and shooting speed, you should gradually improve it during training." When Durant panted and finished throwing the ball in the box, Stephen came behind him at some point. said with him.

"Hi, I'm Kevin Durant." Seeing Stephen come over to communicate, Durant stopped immediately, wiped off the sweat on his body with a towel, walked up to Stephen and stretched out his hand to introduce himself. , when the two held hands, Durant found that Stephen's head and hands were slightly wet. At the moment of shaking hands at the same time, although Stephen immediately reduced his strength, Durant still felt Stephen's huge strength. force of oppression.

"I'm your boss Stephen, welcome to Seattle." Stephen said with a smile on his face.
