"Ann, are you retreating after practicing?" Prokpio first said hello to Manu, and then looked at An Xi's training and couldn't help but ask. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

An Xi nodded: "Yes, it's just a quick stop and a step-back jumper." ”

Mike Prokpio nodded: "Ann, in fact, I've always wanted to say that you are not suitable for practicing more offensive skills now, you should consider specializing in one, and after practicing breakthroughs, slowly use your mid-range shooting and three-point shooting." ”

"Specialize in one ......" An Xi was silent, and he began to think.

"Mike is right, Ann, you should specialize and not learn too much miscellaneous offense, if you can use the few techniques you have now, and then practice some related techniques, maybe your offense can be used to a greater extent. ”

Manu paused, he should have thought of something, he continued: "In the last game, you were defended by Trevo Ariza, and in the previous game, you were restrained by Jack Crowder and Drummond Green, but that is not because of your lack of offensive means, but your back has not reached the highest level, and although your three-point and mid-range shooting are accurate, there is no matching style of play, and you have no ball, so far you can only catch and shoot. ”

"In fact, Anxi, you can completely focus on your existing several outstanding technologies for the next step of development, such as pull-up jump shots, such as back-to-back jumpers, and then empty cut layups. ”

An Xi nodded thoughtfully, during this time, he did pursue his own all-round development a little, now think about it carefully, is it really necessary?

Perhaps, as Manu and Proxio said, Anxi should further develop his existing offensive skills, rather than blindly pursuing all-round.

In terms of basketball, An Xi was also very decisive, and he made a direct decision at the moment: "In this case, Mike, let's stop practicing breakthrough and low post next, let's practice stop-and-go jumpers and step-back jumpers." ”

Hearing this, Manu shook his head again: "The backward jumper is not good, although I gave the example of the backward jumper, but the backward jumper is not so easy to practice, you need a famous teacher, and you also need to study it yourself, it is not so easy to practice, for you, it is difficult to see the effect in a short time." ”

An Xi nodded again, and now Manu's words are all good words, which is Manu's experience in the NBA for more than ten years.

"Now, you should focus on practicing the pull-up jump shot and the air cut layup, these two techniques have been developed, you can be inside and outside, you can hold the ball alone or catch the ball and shoot, these points are done, you can practice the step-back jumper, and develop new offensive techniques. ”

……

Manuginobili gave Anxi a lot of advice, Manu knew very well that the current Anxi was like an uncarved piece of jade, and every knife was extremely important, because if it was engraved, don't think about it anymore, so Manuginobili felt that his advice to Anxi was still very important.

Anxi decided to develop a pull-up jump shot and an air-cut layup, and he listened carefully to Manu's advice and soon began a new training session.

The Spurs had an easy schedule in February, but Popovich began a massive rotation for All-Star weekend.

As a result, game after game, Spurs will inevitably lose.

Won the Timberwolves on the road, returned to the home court and rotated a lot, but lost to the Pistons, who are at the bottom of the East, then won the Nets on the road, and won the Bulls in Chicago to win two in a row, but then in Cleveland, the Spurs rotated sharply again, and the Spurs almost lost, and finally won by only 1 point......

That was the end of the All-Star weekend, with the Spurs ending their Eastern Conference road trip with a three-game winning streak before rushing back to San Antonio.

All-Star Weekend is basically the middle of a season, and when it comes to All-Star Weekend, it means that half of the season is over.

In the first half of the season, the Spurs played a total of 54 games, 42 wins and 12 losses, and the overall performance was average, but compared to the Spurs, the performance of other teams was worse, and in the West, the so-called championship favorites in the preseason, the Thunder's record was only slightly better than the Spurs, they played 52 games in the first half of the season, 42 wins and 10 losses, and only lost 2 games less than the Spurs.

The Lakers and Clippers have a much worse record than the Spurs, the Clippers are okay, 39-17 in the first half of the season, and the Lakers are bad, only 25-28 in the first half of the season, and are still struggling on the verge of the playoffs.

The West is miserable, the East is even worse, the Heat won 35-14 in the first half of the season, played 5 games less than the Spurs, but lost 2 more games than the Spurs, and the Knicks, who are in good form this season, also have a 32-17 record so far, with the same number of games as the Heat, but lost 3 more games.

The decline in the performance of the strong teams is actually due to the growth of the strength of the mid-range teams.

There are dark horses in the east and west, such as the Nuggets in the West, halfway through the season, the Nuggets' record is 37-15, and they are currently in the West, second only to the Thunder and Spurs.

And the dark horse in the east is the Pacers, everyone thinks that the Pacers will improve, but no one would have thought that the Pacers will improve so much. In the first half of the season, the Pacers were 33-15, and their record was even better than that of the Knicks.

Before the All-Star weekend, the league situation was confusing, the Spurs and Thunder were in an unstable state, and the Clippers had used half a season of games to show people that the Clippers were actually like that.

On the eastern side, the situation is a little clearer, since February, the state of the Heat has begun to recover, perhaps David Fitzdale's adjustment has finally worked, from February 4, to February 15, the Heat played 7 games, 7 wins, including the Rockets, Clippers, Lakers, Thunder and other strong teams.

With 7 consecutive wins, the Heat directly secured the first position in the East, but for the Heat, the first place in the East is not their ultimate goal.

The All-Star Weekend is about to begin, and the Spurs' players for the All-Star Weekend have also been announced, Tony Parker and Tim Duncan will both participate in the All-Star Game, Leonard and Anxi will participate in the Rookie Challenge, Anxi will also participate in the Slam Dunk Contest, and Parker will also participate in the Skills Competition.

And of course, don't forget about Popovich, who will also be playing in the All-Star Game, and he will be the head coach of the West team in the All-Star Game.

So, under the leadership of Popovich, the Spurs rushed to Houston for the 2013 All-Star Weekend. (To be continued.) )
