Chapter 164 Press Conference (Second Update)

Time flies by.

In this year's offseason, there were very, very few transactions, and they were basically small fights.

There are very few contracts involving the middle class and above.

The deal between Randolph and Vince Carter is the biggest deal. This season, many teams are silently lurking, preparing to make a big deal next year.

Next year, the contracts of a large group of superstars in the league will expire, and a large number of high-quality role players will become free agents. As long as they operate well, an ordinary team can win the championship in an instant.

Therefore, this year's transactions are very restrained.

Most of it is just sewing.

The Blazers and Roy signed a five-year 8000 million contract. Compared with Roy's data this year, this contract is not big. The Blazers outside Roy and inside Aldridge's partner lineup have already appeared. As long as the two do not encounter injuries in the next few years, the Blazers will be very competitive in the league.

Until August [-]th.

Qin Yang appeared at the press conference for the first time. This time, Qin Yang signed a formal contract with Magic team manager Otis and became a member of the Orlando Magic team.

Qin Yang:

"This is a decision made after careful consideration. The Magic have good teammates and coaches. I hope I can spend a happy career here."

"As for the goal, it is only one step away from the O'Brien Cup. I have no other requirements."

"The biggest reason for me to choose to join the Magic is Dwight, God, I can't stand a big man next to you and keep telling you come on."

Otis:

"Bruce is an unbelievable player. He has the best three-pointers and passes in the league. His joining can bring great help to the Cavaliers. We are honored to get Qin Yang, which will bring more good changes to the Magic."

The press conference was not big, but the news caused a sensation in the league.

This summer, the Magic are almost crazy.

Two consecutive major transactions were made. Vince Carter and Qin Yang joined the Magic to form a new Magic lineup, while last year's Turkoglu, Alston and Jameer Nelson left.

Turkoglu, who performed very well last season, did not even get a contract extension from the Magic, which made Turkoglu express his dissatisfaction on Twitter.

Then Turkoglu and the Suns signed a contract with an annual salary of 800 million.

After signing the contract, Qin Yang went directly to Orlando.

Williams has already found a house, which is very close to Amway Arena, the home stadium of Orlando. The rent is very cheap, and the environment is nice and quiet.

In September, Lily had already started school, and Qin Yang came to Orlando to continue his training.

Magic team coach Van Gundy also called Qin Yang after the press conference, and expressed his welcome indifferently, without saying anything else.

The conflict between coach Van Gundy and team manager Otis is well known. Otis sent away Van Gundy's favorite player Jameer Nelson and did not renew Turkoglu, which made Van Gundy very upset.

After answering the phone, Qin Yang shook his head and continued training.

Making fouls is already purely pure, and the rest is to keep up and hone in the game.

The improvement of mid-range shooting is not as great as expected. Qin Yang has focused on training the two positions near the sideline. Qin Yang has a good sense of these two positions before, but now he is more stable. In addition, in the mid-distance position of [-] degrees, Qin Yang is already quite sure.

After training these, the training camp is about to start.

9 month 28 day.

Players began to gather in the Magic team training hall. This season, the Magic team has undergone a big change. Although many players have met in the league, they don't know each other very well.

When entering the arena, Qin Yang recognized Vince Carter and came forward to say hello.

Vince Carter was bald, but he didn't look fierce. When Qin Yang came forward to greet him, he didn't put on airs, but responded politely.

"Do you know the team members right? Let me introduce you."

Qin Yang asked with a smile, and Carter shook his head: "I don't know either, I know about Dwight, I know about Rashard Lewis, and I'm not familiar with the others."

The league is also a very realistic place. There are no starters, and there is no qualification for superstars to remember their names.

When Qin Yang was hesitating, a black man from the magic team came over. This man was tall, but Qin Yang had an impression.

"Bruce Qin, hello, Tony Batty."

Qin Yang took the initiative to say hello, which surprised Tony Barty.Qin Yang said with a smile: "Of course, I paid attention to it when I played against the Magic last season. Your mid-range is very accurate, and it will be of great help to the game after the game."

Last season, the boss of the Magic was Dwight, and the core of the offense was Turkoglu, but... the boss of the locker room was Tony Batty.

This is surprising, but true.

Tony Batty, as a role player, is hard to be remembered by truly famous players. Qin Yang called out his name directly, which surprised Tony Batty.

"Take me to see the other teammates, Dwight will be here soon."

After Qin Yang said this, he took a step first.

Tony Batty hesitated for a moment and walked over, while Carter followed without saying a word.

Since deciding to leave the Raptors, Carter has no plans to be the boss anymore. Going to be the boss of the Nets is just an accident, so he has no intention of competing for the status of the team.

Qin Yang went directly to meet other teammates, making Carter and Tony Barty hesitate.

Tony Batty is the old man of the team and the old man of the league. He plays the role of leading newcomers in the team and also acts as the leader of the locker room.

When walking into the training ground, Tony Barty introduced them one by one.

Pietrus, Brandon Bass, Matt Barnes, Rashard Lewis, Redick, Jason Williams, Ryan Anderson, Gortat, Anthony Johnson, this is the entire Magic lineup.

Qin Yang greeted his teammates one by one, and everyone else had different expressions.

This season, the Magic's lineup is very strong, and the only disadvantage is the point guard. Since the other point guards were traded out, only Qin Yang and Anthony Johnson are left in the team.

Anthony Johnson is three years younger than Carter and is a veteran who is close to retirement.

Then the team's main point guard is undoubtedly Qin Yang.

No one on the team dares to offend a point guard who can control the ball for part of the time, no matter the rookie or the old, they greet him kindly.

As for going forward to provoke, no one dared to do so.

Especially after a few minutes, Dwight Howard returned to the training hall, hugged and congratulated Qin Yang, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, man, this year you come, we have a better chance of winning the championship."

Dwight didn't say hello to the others, he didn't feel like he was the boss at all, and he didn't greet other people to communicate.

On the contrary, Qin Yang chatted with his teammates and got a general understanding of each player's position on the court and the player's technical characteristics.

Until Coach Van Gundy arrives.
