Chapter 13: Open a small stove


The fans are very excited, but the reaction of the media is to deeply understand what is shameless.
Wasn't he embarrassed? What should they do to clarify those previous guesses?
But they are good, and chose the most shameless way, cold processing.
I did n’t mention the previous things at all, even Tang Tian was not mentioned in the report. When reporting this game, I only talked about the performance of the players, praised Roy for his outstanding strength, enjoyed star treatment, and praised Millsap as the current draft. One of the most underrated players.
These words are not wrong, the fans can't find a point of refutation, which is really speechless.
However, Tang Tian didn't care about these reactions from the media.
如何 How he performs, the management of the Rockets can see it, the management of other teams can see it.
His current concentration has been put into the summer league itself.
Although the Rockets have won two games in a row, some problems have been exposed.
Millsap's performance has been hot, but when Thomas or Aldridge focused on defending him, he seemed to be a bit out of reach. If Novak had not been able to shoot outside the two games, the game would not have been as good. It seems so easy.
The current Millsap is not the "Mishen" in the future. The offensive method is relatively simple, thanks to the excellent ball dealers playing.
There is also Novak, who is too defensive on the defensive end, even by players like Woods and Webster who have little personal offensive ability, which is much worse than he expected.
It seems that Novak, who has seen 22 consecutive victories in his previous life, has improved a lot in defense, but this starting point is too low.
Although there is still one honor point, he knows that it will not come easily, and he will not use it unless he has to, so he can only think of it differently.
脑 His brain was spinning fast, and soon he had an idea.
晚上 On the night after the game with the Trail Blazers, Tang Tian called Millsap and Novak separately to the training hall.
Millsap and Novak are in a good mood. As a second-round show, they have performed well in the previous two games. Tang Tian left them at the same time after training. The only possibility is to praise them.
I was able to get praise from Tang Tian, ​​the first assistant coach, which will undoubtedly help them to stay in the team for the new season.
Tangtian looked at the two rookies who seemed slightly happy on their faces, and guessed what they thought in a moment. He opened his mouth and said, "You played well in the game and exceeded my expectations."
"Coach, that's your trust and tactical arrangement." Millsap glowed. He killed the Quartet in college, but was treated coldly on draft day, and now reused by Tang Tian, ​​how could he not be grateful.
就是 "That is, I did not feel as comfortable in college as I did today," Novak echoed.
Tangtian nodded his head, waited to see the excitement of the two passed, and then said, "But I expect much more than that."
Millsap and Novak did not know what Tang Tian was referring to.
"With your current ability, it is very promising to stay on the Rockets roster in the new season, but if you want to go further and become a member of the Rockets rotation lineup, there is still a big gap, and to become a rotation, or even further, to become Starting, that's what I expect from you. "
After Tang Tian said, both Millsap and Novak looked very excited. They did not expect Tang Tian to expect so much from them.
信任 This trust excites them.
"But ..." everything is set for the next topic.
With the previous compliments, Millsap and Novak were both attentive and focused at this time. No matter what Tang Tian said, they would listen.
"Your shortcomings are also obvious. Paul ’s offensive method is too simple. Basically, you rely on rushing rebounds and air cuts, or receiving teammates to pass the ball and make a half shot. The ability to score autonomously is too weak. Husband, to be honest with your defense, you won't even get a minute of playing time in the official NBA game. "
Millsap and Novak looked at each other, and bowed their heads in shame. Tang Tian, ​​although very straightforward, said all the points.
"So starting today, after the end of each day, you all stay alone to practice. The content is very simple. Paul, you train offense, mainly with your back and face. Steve, you are responsible for defending Paul. Tom and I will always It will depend on your own efforts to supervise and guide if you can really make it to the new season roster. "
Tang Tian said, Millsap and Novak nodded hard after listening. They knew this was not punishment, but they just opened a small stove for them.
Tangtian really trusts them.
The summer league is still going on, and the Rockets continue to play well. They have successively defeated the Lakers, Suns and Timberwolves, maintaining a record of victory.
The summer league format is that each team plays 5 games and then ranks. The 9 to 24 teams will play in a one-day elimination game and then play a single NCAA tournament with the top 8 teams. Step by step to decide the championship.
The Rockets won all five games and ranked at the top of the list, so they ushered in a rare day off the summer league.
The players were a bit tired after consecutive matches. Tang Tian only arranged half a day of training, and he was on vacation in the afternoon.
I took this opportunity to pull Xibodu to the Chinese restaurant.
After I passed through, he always followed Western food, either steak or pizza, or burger and mashed potatoes, and he really had an appetite.
He ate a little bit until the end. Are these things not greasy for Americans? Compared with Chinese food, it is really weak.
Xibodu was once pitted by Tang Tiankeng. He didn't want to go, but he couldn't hold his curiosity about Chinese food.
Braised poached meat, sauerkraut fish, spicy chicken, beer duck ...
These are usually eaten everywhere in China. Tang Tian has n’t eaten for a few months. He really talked and ordered them one by one.
Looking at a table with red oil, Xibodu didn't know where to start.
Tangtian was rude, he had been sulking for a long time, and after teaching Xibodu how to use chopsticks, he ate it up and down.
Xibodu did not hold back in the end, and put a piece of pickled fish in his mouth with chopsticks.
