"He Li, you don't sleep at night, why do you call me? Next, you'd better convince me and give me a reason not to get angry, otherwise you will be miserable during the day!"

Kassel, who answered the phone, seemed to have been woken up by He Li just now and his tone was not friendly.

He Li didn't care too much about this, and of course he didn't keep it a secret. Instead, he quickly explained his purpose: "Sem, have you ever seen Milwaukee at 4 a.m.?"

"Speak human words!"

"Come out, I'll wait for you in the training hall!"

"He Li, you really don't sleep? You're just getting off the plane at this time, right?" Kassel was extremely surprised.

Cassel knew clearly that the Bucks finished playing in Detroit not long ago. At this time, it should be when they just came back from the plane and went home to rest.

And tonight, the Suns will come to challenge. The back-to-back schedule is a test for the players' physical strength.

He Li is good. He takes the initiative to not sleep and stay up until dawn.

Is this? The limit challenge during the day and the limit challenge at night?

"It was because I just got off the plane and couldn't sleep for the time being that I called you. Okay, I'm going to hang up, I'll wait for you in the training hall!" After He Li said that, he was about to hang up the phone.

And before the phone hung up, Kassel complained, "Please, it doesn't matter if you are single or not, but I have a wife! Can you find a girl..."

"It's a pity that I'm dying too early! Forget it, don't fight anymore, just go to the training hall to wait for him!"

He Li actually wanted to reply to Kassel, "Where is no fun for women?" But when he thought that he was still single and seemed not qualified to say this, he didn't do anything more.

A few hours ago, the Bucks had just finished playing in Detroit. He Li slept on the plane for a while. Now he has just got off the plane and is not sleepy anymore.

After getting off the plane, the team was disbanded. Everyone had houses in Milwaukee, so naturally they would not sleep in the hotel, but would go back to their own houses and find their own mothers.

He Li was so excited that he just woke up. He couldn't sleep for a short time and didn't feel too tired. He wanted to go back to the Bradley Center training ground to practice the ball.

Considering that the Bucks' tactical core was He Li, but after Kassel returned, the ball rights would return to Kassel's hands, so He Li thought of communicating with Kassel in advance and discussing it to see if there are any better ways to play and cooperate.

The strength of a team does not depend entirely on the number of stars, but on how the chemical reaction between the team's main players is.

Kassel and He Li had no problem cooperating before, but during the period when Kassel recovered from his injury, the Bucks' playing style and tactics changed.

Now that Kassel has returned from injury, can this Bucks perform more stably and better? It is still unknown at the moment.

Ray Allen returned and was slightly adapted to one or two games.

Ray Allen also adapted to the Bucks' new tactics and styles of play, so that the Bucks can continue to move forward steadily while maintaining the first place in the East.

He Li arrived at the Bradley Center training ground first and started warming up with the trainer.

Before coming, He Li also called the Bucks trainer.

Although I am a little sorry, this is also the responsibility of the team trainer.

Basically, just as He Li stepped into the training ground, the trainer also arrived in a hurry.

Kassel came more than 20 minutes later than He Li. He Li had done a warm-up, but Kassel was still sleepy and yawning, looking unhurried.

"Sam, you warm up first! I said while doing it. I think it is necessary for us to negotiate about the ball rights." He Li said actively.

When Kassel heard this, he replied decisively: "I'm very relieved to hand over the ball to you!

Although I think I performed better than you when I control the ball.

But indeed, during the period when you led the team, you performed very well, which was much beyond my expectations.

I think I can cooperate with you and play in the way you are best at now.”

Cassel does not have to have a ball to play. Cassel is also very strong in receiving and shooting. In addition, the ball quotient is high, so he can run and play without the ball.

08 Celtics, Cassel was honestly a substitute, allowing Rondo to take charge, so he could catch and shoot, and he could also play with the substitute.

It is because Kassel is like a universal plug, which is too adaptable and has brought too much help to the team. This made Ray Allen once thought that Kassel was the third giant of the Celtics.

Having said that, Kassel's comprehensive ability with the ball is naturally much better than Kassel without the ball.

But if the Bucks are currently in a position to stabilize the first record in the Eastern Conference and maintain a winning streak, they should try to avoid too many changes.

In addition, Kassel was also very happy that He Li could grow to the point of "the second striker in the East" this season.

The Bucks didn't perform well before, but they lacked truly reliable inside players.

He Li is the reliable little brother in Kassel's eyes.

Because the Bucks have the power, they have the possibility of going further, so Kassel is naturally happy to see this scene.

However, in response to Kassel's proposal, He Li immediately shook his head and refused: "This is not the purpose of asking you to come here to practice football today. I hope the ball will be handed over to you."

There is no doubt that Cassel's main control will definitely help the Bucks more.

At present, Kassel's game experience and ability to read games must be stronger than He Li, and it is also the part that the Bucks need more.

For He Li, he does not need to play the ball at all. He Li has too much ball rights, which makes him even more tired!

So, if Kassel doesn’t control the ball, how can He Li maintain his health?

While the three musketeers opened up the space, Cassel passed the ball to him, then received the ball and shot, received the ball and made a single, and averaged 20 points per game, and could easily win the game. Isn't that good?

Why did He Li cause trouble for himself? He kept holding the ball and was double-teamed, and then faced the ball being intercepted and the ball was not passed in place at critical moments, exposing the shortcomings of not being able to hold the ball?

"I think you can still consider it and do what I said." Kassel pushed back again.

He Li suddenly laughed when he heard this: "I'm not the kind of player who needs to hold the ball to play!"

He Li felt that Kassel was still worried that He Li would suddenly lose the ball, so he didn't know how to play. He Li's condition declined and the overall strength of the team declined. This is the issue that Kassel was most concerned about.

"To be honest, I can't do what you do, pass all the balls to the hands of the person who should be receiving the ball.

If I hold too much ball, I will also face the problem of lack of physical strength.

In this way, I have to reduce the physical strength to allocate to defense and grab rebounds."

Hearing He Li's explanation, Kassel did not continue to reject He Li's proposal.

"Let's practice first, and after seeing the actual situation, we will discuss the ball rights matters.

It is actually not in a hurry to hold the ball.

I just came back and needed a few games to adapt. Maybe my injury hasn't healed yet!"

After Kassel finished hot, he practiced with He Li.

The two of them played for more than half an hour and were slightly sweating, but they felt unsatisfied, so they called more trainers and called a few substitutes who had not played much before to play.

This practice lasted for more than two hours.

"There will be a game tonight! Go back early to rest!"

Kassel was concerned about He Li on the surface, but in fact he was tortured by He Li, so he had to say that.

The training and defense were not in confrontation, and playing for two hours was slightly larger than the warm-up exercise.

However, it was already 7 o'clock in the morning. He Li, who had been practicing football for more than three hours, did need to eat and rest.

"I'll go back and have a rest first. We will continue in the afternoon. Everyone should come and practice again. It should be almost done in the evening!"

“Ha, come again in the afternoon?

Come on, do you think they all look like you?

The schedule has been so busy recently and the game pressure is so great. Everyone has finally had some rest time, so will they ask for trouble to come to the training ground to practice?”

Kassel gave He Li a blank look, and the information revealed in his eyes was probably: "If you have a girlfriend, then you won't be so active in practicing football!"

When He Li learned that Cassel would not come in the afternoon, he extinguished his idea of ​​continuing to practice in the afternoon.

Next, He Li enjoyed breakfast at Bradley Center, then had physical therapy, and then went home to rest.

It was not until after 4 pm that He Li went to the stadium to report in advance.

He Li thought he was late, but he didn't want to basically not come except for the big dog who was still recovering from injuries and the unimportant substitute.

It is worth mentioning that Ray Allen, who is the most active in training and will basically not be absent, was no one at this time.

Seeing this, He Li was not in a hurry, but did some simple and easy exercises with the big dog.

The Big Dog's injury is not serious, at least it has not reached the level of reimbursement for the season, and there is no need for any surgery. It is currently in a situation where you can play directly.

But bucks do not need to sacrifice their lives, so they should recover from injuries normally and do some rehabilitation training appropriately.

After a while, Ray Allen and Kassel arrived at the Bradley Center one after another. After all the staff arrived, He Li and others did not have a video room meeting, so they started training and started to work on the lineup.

George Carl wanted to say something when he saw He Li hand over the ball.

However, He Li and Kassel are not in vain in the morning, let alone Kassel's game experience is here.

George Carl found that after Kassel returned, it seemed that he did not destroy the team's tactics, and He Li's personal ability and influence on the team did not change much. Since it was the decision made by the players themselves, George Carl did not use any interference.

In this way, the Bucks' home court Bradley Center soon faced the challenge of the Phoenix Suns.

The Suns' configuration is very similar to the previous Bucks. The team is centered on the outside, with point guard Stephen Marbury, point guard Penny Anfini Hardaway, and small forward hacker Sean Marion.

That's right, the Suns are Marbury and Hardaway's double-point guard lineup. Of course, these two players are not worse than ordinary point guards.

Logically speaking, such a three-gun firepower configuration is hard to say how good the playoffs are, but the regular season should be pretty good.

You should know that the Suns' bench depth is not bad either. Rodney Rodgers, who had the 93rd pick, averaged 12.6 points per game last season, and Tony Delk, who had the 16th pick in the 96th Golden Generation, averaged 12.3 points per game last season.
