Liu Xiucai came to Portland in mid-August!

The Trail Blazers coaching staff and trainers who were coaching Travis Outlaw were shocked!

Travis Outlaw is not a talkative person, but as a good boy who is new to the world, he is easily tricked by Kevin Pritchard - Liu Xiu is ready to rest until the training camp starts.

.

As for why Kevin Pritchar caught a rookie talking to him, he couldn't help it. He couldn't try to talk to Randolph, right?

That guy is as lazy as Liu Xiu. According to the news obtained by Kevin Pritchard, Randolph traveled around South America with a barbecue group from Chile.

Currently, the only ones on the team who have a really good relationship with Liu Xiu are Randolph and Travis Outlaw.

After learning that Liu Xiu came to Portland, Kevin Plitchar waited for two days for Liu Xiu's place to be settled. Kevin Plitchar told Travis Outlaw to go to Liu Xiu's house.

Drop by the door.

Travis Outlaw is so good as a rookie.

The physical condition is very superior - height 206 cm, wingspan 220 cm, vertical jump height 100+ cm...

His playing talent cannot be said to be top-notch, but he is barely on the verge of being top-notch, a talent above the first-rate.

Talent at this level, if grown steadily, will eventually reach the NBA starting level.

If he grows well, he is expected to become a fringe All-Star player.

Don't underestimate the fringe All-Star level. The general expectation for the No. 1 pick is 3-5 All-Star appearances, and not all No. 1 picks can achieve this.

If Travis Outlaw, the 23rd pick in the first round, can be selected as an All-Star even once, it will be a bloody gain.

A power forward like David West has only made two All-Star appearances in his entire career.

The most important thing is his character, he is a completely good baby.

Perhaps such a person would be easily disadvantaged in society and find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Blazers team where villains are everywhere, but such a player is very popular with the coach.

On August 18th, Kevin Pritchar asked Travis Outlaw to go to Liu Xiu's house to inquire about Liu Xiu's next arrangements... He didn't find out anything, but Travis Outlaw

I followed Liu Xiu to a private fitness club and practiced using equipment all afternoon!

Not only that, Liu Xiu practiced equipment for three days in a row. On the third day, Travis Outlaw couldn't stand it anymore and stopped practicing in the morning and afternoon.

After hearing the news, Kevin Pritchar was shocked!

"Kevin, don't get too excited. From what I know about Jayce in the summer league, he might just suddenly want to practice for a while, and maybe he won't practice tomorrow." Maurice Cheeks decisively poured cold water on him.

Kevin Pritchar ignores his coach, who is becoming more and more showmanlike.

"Travis, what do you think of Jace's training these days? Is it just casual training?"

Travis Outlaw shook his head: "No, Jess's training is very professional. Except for some movements that require assistance from fitness coaches, most of them are done by himself, and they look more professional than those professional coaches."

.”

Kevin Plitchar heard this and said to his coach: "Is this maybe a casual practice? He is going to enter the NBA. That kid is finally going to start working hard!"

Morris-Cheeks was speechless.

In the past two years, he has worked very well with Kevin Plitchar as a partner, but their personalities can be said to be completely different.

Kevin Plitchar is a relatively traditional coach.

Maurice Cheeks is a different kind of coach. He doesn't care about everything off the court. As long as the players perform well on the court, he will use it.

Of course, if the relationship goes well, or if he appreciates someone, he will be given more opportunities.

…

In the evening, Travis Outlaw received instructions from Kevin Pritchar again and went to Liu Xiu's house to visit and have dinner.

When dinner was almost done, Liu Xiu complained: "Travis, you come here every day to eat, you have to pay."

"Ah...ok, I didn't bring any money, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

Liu Xiu was speechless when he heard this.

One of the distinguishing characteristics of Travis Outlaw's good baby is that he does not have money disputes with others.

Don’t take advantage of others, and be willing to suffer a small loss at certain times.

There are also advantages - if you encounter someone who loves to take advantage of you, if you suffer two more losses, you will take the initiative to stay away.

If you suffer a lot, sometimes you don't want to suffer a loss, and the other party feels that you have suffered a loss.

Okay, Liu Xiu ignored this question and changed the subject: "You actually know how to eat offal, aren't you scared?"

They have been in Portland for a few days. Liu Xiu and Qing'er first bought a pickup truck for transportation and bought all the pots and pans for Chinese and Western food. They just started cooking in the past two days. Travis- Outlaw also came to have a few meals. What surprised Liu Xiu was that this high school student seemed to dare to eat anything. Anyway, no matter what he cooked every day, this guy ate it.

"It's just food, what are you afraid of? As long as it's food, I dare to try it. When I was a kid, I went to Auckland, and there was a Chinese restaurant there called Devil's Restaurant. They sold brains... pig brains, I've eaten them!"

Travis Outlaw's eyes flashed with anticipation as he spoke.

He has heard that pig brain flowers are something that not everyone can accept, even among Chinese people who can eat anything. To be precise, most of them don't eat it.

And he has really eaten it! What he just said is the truth!

He learned from Liu Xiu - tell the truth to stimulate others.

When he saw Liu Xiu's expression, he was stunned... just for a moment.

Under Travis Outlaw's expectant gaze, Liu Xiu took a step back with his chair and said to the sister wearing an apron next to him: "Oh, my dear sister, stay away from him, he will eat you. brain!"

Qing'er pulled the chair very cooperatively... He couldn't move it, and his feet didn't even touch the ground. He jumped down without Tiyunzong jumping three times in a row with his left foot and right foot, and ran to Liu Xiu's side.

"..."

Travis Outlaw wants to fight, and if it wasn't for the possibility of being beaten to tears, he really wants to fight!

The other party gave a reaction, but this reaction was obviously teasing him, okay?

Treat him like a child!

…

After dinner, even though it was only 7 o'clock and it was just getting dark, Travis Outlaw was still ready to go back to his rented apartment.

Free America, don't go out casually at night.

Before leaving, Travis Outlaw thought of the chief assistant coach's instructions and said to Liu Xiu who was walking to the door: "Jess, the coach asked me to tell you that you have trained too much these days. You should You have to rest when you have a rest..."

"Huh?...Okay, I understand. I originally planned to take a rest tomorrow."

When word got through, Travis Outlaw drove away in his used car.

The second feature of Travis Outlaw's Good Baby - Saving, bought a used car that the landlord was planning to sell.

After the good baby left, Qing'er said to Liu Xiu: "Brother, you are finally going to rest. Qing'er was shocked, thinking you were really going to start working hard."

Liu Xiu moved Qing'er's head: "Why, am I bothering you with all my efforts?"

"Pfft," Qing'er spat out the hair that her unlucky brother had moved into her mouth and said, "No way, it's just that my brother suddenly worked so hard, which scared Qing'er."

You think I am willing!

When Liu Xiu thought about these three days of training, he felt hopeless.

Fortunately, it was completed today!

When he first got the system item ‘Strength +1 (Training)’, Liu Xiu felt that he could easily do it, it was just 6 hours of strength training.

Even if you complete the training in one day, it is not that difficult.

The day before yesterday, after he really started training, he collapsed... Even if he had a packed lunch, he didn't finish training on the first day. He didn't finish a single one-hour training session all morning!

Just like the warm-up training before a game, the system provides standard movements, and each movement has a score... Throughout the morning, Liu Xiu was competing with the standard of movements.

Fortunately, he has so much experience in pre-game warm-ups and patience.

By the afternoon before yesterday, when Travis Outlaw came, Liu Xiu had already practiced well.

When Travis Outlaw came back the next day, Liu Xiu was able to complete 4 hours of single-group training in 11 hours from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Finally, today, Liu Xiu spent more than 9 hours to complete the 6-hour training task, and his strength increased to 89!

After completing the training, the system prompted him to receive the muscle memory of 'Strength +1 (training)' in a place where no one was around.

But Liu Xiu did not choose to use this prop at this time.

At first, he planned to use it directly, but if he first trains his strength to 89 and then uses this, he can directly increase his strength rating to 90!

As for why you don’t practice it until you reach 90 before using it... If you continue to use it like this, you might as well practice it until you reach 99 before using it.

Talent has its limits, and it does not mean that if you keep training, you will continue to improve. A skill or a physical condition will no longer improve if you practice it to a certain level. On the contrary, if you slack off and don't practice, most people will Instead of advancing, retreat.

‘This training-added attribute prop can cause bugs. As long as you don’t use it, you can always get instructions on standard movements for strength training, as well as action scores, which is a good thing...’

…

Travis Outlaw no longer trains with Liu Xiu. He needs to gain weight and practice basic skills.

But the coaching staff has been paying attention to Liu Xiu.

There is always a way to find out what Liu Xiu is doing recently, even without Travis Outlaw going.
