0136: [Locker Room Status] +16

Rumble!

Dugg made a two-handed dunk under the basket!

This is the first time in his life that he has done a dunk with both hands, although the bounce height has been reduced a lot.

But the most important thing about this is that Dugg's coordination is almost 10 percent better than before. This has brought about all-round improvements, such as his breakthrough change of direction angle is greater than before, his backward turn can also reach nearly 360 degrees, and his one-handed dunk height has increased by nearly 10 centimeters, which is no longer so reluctant. At the same time, his shooting time on the spot was reduced by almost a second.

The other thing to be thankful for is that his thighs don't seem to be as stiff, which makes his stride a little longer.

If he encounters Ibaka again, Dug will never be so embarrassed again.

……

Last season, the Heat's performance could only be described as a nightmare, with 15 wins and 67 losses, which was the worst record in Miami's history, and they also won the first and second league records in team history. They were 15 in a row and 11 in a row.

This result also led to Pat Riley handing over the reintake to his former assistant Spoelstra, who apparently didn't want to have that post-match losing summary meeting again.

In the offseason, the budget-conscious Heat team did not make big moves, and everything was run on a small budget. first renewed the contract of Chris Quinn for 2 years and $2 million, and then gave former All-Star center Margloyl a veteran base salary, and recruited former talented point guard Shaun Livingston with an unguaranteed base salary.

At the moment, the Heat's roster feels like two forwards are extremely crowded, with Dwyane Wade at the shooting guard and peace of mind.

However, the No. 1 and No. 5 positions can be described as disasters.

First of all, the No. 1 position, since the departure of Williams, has been unsustainable. Chris Quinn has proven himself only as a substitute and that he can't control the big picture. Marcus Banks, who traded in from Phoenix last year, was a disaster, declaring himself a superstar all the time, and he couldn't coexist with Dwyane Wade at all.

So, they drafted the NCAA overall runner-up Mario Chammos this year, and then they also brought in Sean Livingston, a completely scrapped talent.

And at the No. 5 position, with Mourning's retirement, they are left with only one full-fledged center, Matt Blunt, who has a resounding name of 'NBA's worst center', for this title, there will never be anyone who will compete with him, and there will never be anyone who pretends to be 'modest' and claims to be 'the second worst center in the East'.

This year, Paterley used the veteran's base salary to sign Margoloyle, and also brought in several players from the NBDL to join the training camp, and apparently has no plans to salvage it again.

"Pat Riley's offseason operation completely discredited the name of 'God Operator', and I can't imagine that he would bring in forwards such as Diawara, James Jones, Dorrell Wright, and Michael Beasley when the forwards were already overcrowded. Doesn't he know that his team has vacancies in the No. 1 and No. 5 positions? ”

"Oh, don't be angry, Charlie. Didn't our president pick Snoopy for us? He's a self-proclaimed point guard center, and he can solve two problems at the same time, how awesome! ”

"To Snoopy, I'd rather pay to go to his concert than see him in a Miami jersey......"

“……”

Dugg drove to the Florida Atlantic University Arena in Berkeleyton, where Miami's training camp for the season was set up, where they will practice twice a day and have intra-squad matches every Friday and Saturday.

Idle and bored on the road, he turned on the radio, but all the content in it was insulting Pat Riley and sarcastically mocking himself by the way. But the people of Florida have a sense of humor, and they usually beat them up with a song of their own: "Shake-it-Off."

When he arrived at the arena parking lot, Michael Beasley happened to be driving his supercar.

He was particularly surprised to see Duge, and he circled around Duge's car twice: "So, you drive a pickup truck to work?" ”

"Is there anything wrong? It's more practical and has better safety performance. Dugg replied calmly.

He has no interest in supercars, and in his eyes, cars are just means of transportation.

Beasley apparently didn't think so, his ears were already covered with shiny diamond studs, and he wore a bright gold necklace around his neck. When he opened his mouth to speak, he even wore gold braces on his teeth.

It was clear that he didn't pay attention to his rookie training in New York. Of course, in the end he was also fired.

"Listen, Snoopy. You have to dress yourself up, it's a symbol of wealth. If you walk into the dressing room and you don't have anything of value on you, people will treat you like a low-level player. Michael Beasley patted his chest: "Remember, we're a lotto show." We're not like those second-round picks and draft-losing drafts, we have guaranteed contracts. ”

Dugg completely disagreed with his theory, he was a pragmatist, and he did not want to pursue the so-called face.

But Beasley's words gave him a wake-up call, and he remembered the subject given to him by his mentor: So, part of the reason why NBA players go bankrupt is because of vanity?

The pair walked into the training hall together, and they found the wardrobe where they hung their jerseys in the locker room, with Dugg still the number 10 shirt and Michael Beasley the number 30. However, Michael Beasley's wardrobe is to the left of Dwyane Wade and on the other side is Sean Marion.

Dugg's wardrobe is located relatively close to the door.

It's a status symbol.

While the two were changing clothes, players came in one after another.

Michael Beasley quickly mingled with them, but Dugg sat quietly, he didn't know much about the way to greet some of the low-level blacks, and he wasn't the kind of person who was very welcoming to people when he came up.

"Hey, rookie, welcome to the NBA."

Haslem, who sat next to Dug, was the first to extend his hand to Dug: "I am the captain of this team. ”

Duge smiled and shook his hand, and introduced himself.

Dwyanwade was the last to walk into the locker room, and when he did, the noisy locker room fell a little quieter.

Wade clapped his palms as he stood in the middle of the field, spoke like a leader, and said some plans for the new season, as well as words of encouragement.

When he finished speaking, everyone applauded.

He then sat down in the middle and started having team staff come over and whisper something in his ear.

It only took half an hour. Dugg almost made a rough distinction between the layers of the entire locker room.

Dwyane Wade is the supreme privileged player.

Sean Marion is the second-ranked star player.

Then there's Haslem and Margloyle, the big brothers in the locker room.

Further down are Marcus Banks, James Jones, Diawara, Dorrell Wright, Barrett, Daquin Cook, and Chris Quinn as the main rotation players.

Then there's Joel Anthony, Mario Money, Shaun Livingston and himself as rookies and fringe guys.

Michael Beasley, on the other hand, is a bit of a special one, and he is the one who has high expectations. In the playbook that has just been sent, he is second only to Dwyane Wade in tactical autonomy, higher than Sean Marion, who mainly plays without the ball, but may be ranked below Haslem in terms of actual impact, but better than the average main rotation.

At least, no one will let him go to the parking lot backpack.
