Chapter 127: New season! The preseason begins!

The Wizards were acquired by a capitalist named Ted Lyons, a former director of AOL and the owner of the Washington Capitals in the American Ice Hockey League.
Wang Xiao didn't understand the new boss.
But for the first sense of the new boss, Wang Xiao felt pretty good.
Because after taking office, the new boss did not point fingers at any aspect of the team, everything on the team remained the same.
After taking over the team, he also made it clear at the meeting of the senior management of the team that he is very satisfied with the current situation of the Wizards and will not make any changes to the team's framework in a short time.
This shows that the new owner of the team has a lot of experience.
The new boss takes over the team, the most feared thing is to hire new officials to take the three fires, and want to make some achievements.
That will undoubtedly cause the team to feel panic, the players and coaches are unwilling to play, and the team's record plummets.
Everything remains the same, and then slowly, this is the best choice.
A few days later, the players began to return to the team to resume training in preparation for the upcoming preseason.
...
"Coach, long time no see!"
When Wang Xiao saw Curry in the training ground, he was shooting.
"How is the ankle recovering?"
Walking to Curry, Wang Xiao asked.
Curry jumped like a show, then smiled at Wang Xiao. "It's completely done!"
Because of Wang Xiao's attention, Curry did not choose to take the injury to fight, and also suggested that Curry go to the hospital for a careful examination.
So Curry's ankles are recovering very well. If there is no accident, he should not be injured as frequently as another time and space.
"Be careful, your small body is too easy to be injured on the field, and you have to learn to protect yourself on the field in the future." Wang Xiao was still a little uneasy.
In fact, Wang Xiao is already mentally prepared, and once Curry frequently twists his feet this season, he is immediately required to undergo surgical treatment, even if such an operation will make Curry reimbursed throughout the season.
The Wizards' current lineup, even without Curry, can still ensure sufficient competitiveness, and the existence of Curry will allow the team's upper limit to be raised to a very high level.
"I know, coach."
Although he didn't quite understand why the coach took his sprain so seriously, Curry still remembered it because of his trust in Wang Xiao.
There are currently 11 players on the Wizards' roster. The point guards are Curry and Beverly. The shooting guards are Harden, Danny Green, small forwards Butler, Paul George and the second round of the final game. Robinson signed, small forward position is Jamieson and newly selected Whiteside, center position is Jordan and McGee.
Eleven players do not meet the requirement that a team must have at least 12 rotations.

But this is not a problem. At present, Wang Xiao is quite satisfied with the team's lineup. Even if there are no people, just sign a bench player from the free market. There is no shortage of such players in the league.
As soon as the players were assembled, they began training to restore sex.
In NBA, each offseason is a period of widening the gap. Hard-working players will use the vacation time to exercise themselves, maintain a high level of competitive status and further enhance and strengthen themselves.
Players with inadequate self-discipline will use the rare vacation to play crazy and have parties to drink and have fun. These players are often disastrous when the new season begins.
After a season, the Wizards players have transformed from half of the young people to more than 80% of them are young people.
Heywood, Miller, Brachy and others left the team one after another, leaving only the veterans of the team Jamison and Butler.
Like the aforementioned problems, young people actually did not make much, because they have just joined the league. Although they suddenly became rich, they have not completely changed their mindset, and most of them have not yet succeeded in NBA. I want to make a career, so I work hard during the holidays.
In terms of veterans, Butler is a well-known hard worker, and he is also the hardest to train in the team. Before the Wizards teammates even gave him a nickname, called "drinkable juice". The reason for this nickname is that Butler is training too hard, and he also asked his teammates to do the same, making many players complain, and Butler responded: "You should drink some bad juice."
Butler trained hard and disciplined himself, and Jamison did not go too far. In fact, they can be selected as All-Stars. In addition to those players who are really talented, they can basically restrain their desires.
Because of this, before the start of the new season, the Wizards players can basically guarantee a high level of competition.
...
Pre-season recovery training began, and all teaching assistants were busy.
But after Steve Kerr joined the coaching team, he didn't assign particularly important work at the beginning.
When he first arrived, he needed to understand the Wizards' tactical system training.
For this new colleague, the coaching staff did not show obvious rejection but it was not very welcome.
As the saying goes, the peers are the enemies. They serve on the same team. Although they are partners who work together, they are also relatively competitors.
The first to feel threatened was defensive coach Ellis.
After Cole joined, the first thing Wang Xiao wanted to do was to let Cole strengthen the Wizards' defense.
Another Warriors in space and time, because of the influence of old Nielsen for many years, has always been a team that attacks strong and defends weak. When Cole coached the Warriors for 14 years, the first thing to do is to strengthen Warriors' defensive ability.
It is for this reason that the Warriors won 67 wins in the 14-15 season, refreshing the Warriors' single-season highest win, and in the playoffs all the way to the finals, defeated the Knights residual team led by James, and finally won Championship trophy.
The Wizards want to go further in the playoffs, they must also take the path of strengthening defense.
"Sex" Wang Xiao also thought about this problem, so he chose Paul George.
Although only a one-year-old rookie, George's physical fitness makes him extremely talented in defense.
As long as Paul George + Danny Lin + Beverly's outer defensive combination grows, it will definitely be the top defense in the league, and the inside Jordan will also usher in the third season of his career. Under the systematic training, his The growth rate will also accelerate.
In Wang Xiao's plan, this season, the Wizards should be able to show quite a defensive ability.
