Chapter 14 Training
Seoul finally ushered in the real spring, and at a small restaurant near Sungkyunkwan University, Lee Il-myung dealt with the food in front of him with relish. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Simple vegetable salad, lean beef, chicken breast, freshly squeezed juice, began to consciously control his diet, just like treating his body as a machine, Li Yiming has been carefully protecting, regularly checking and "maintaining" it.
This is especially true after being injured.
The afternoon sun shines on the body, feeling warm, pedestrians outside the window are hurrying, and Li Yiming by the window slowly enjoys the silence of being alone. Seoul is a fast-paced city, and the always gentle Lee Il-myung is out of place with it, but he enjoys it.
The agent, Gu He-beom, called out of the blue.
"Yiming, I'm in the United States, and two newcomers have introduced me to my peers." Gu Hefan's tone over there sounded a little embarrassed.
"Ah, that's good." Li Yiming has no accidents, he is so stable in South Korea now, and he doesn't need to bother much, Gu Hefan was originally a professional star agent, although he has been very depressed and depressed before, but after bringing huge economic value to Li Yiming, Gu Hefan's business level has also been affirmed, and some stars are willing to sign with him after a long absence.
"Come on, I don't have anything worth your trouble here for the time being, I will take the initiative to mention it to you if necessary." Although Gu Hefan himself is Korean, he is a bit condescending to South Korea, and Li Yiming is not willing to stand in the way of other people's fortunes, not to mention that it is normal for a basketball agent to have several stars at the same time.
"Well, Wang Xiaoming over there will take care of everything for you, don't look at him as an assistant now, in fact, he has experience as an agent before, but a Chinese working hard in South Korea, after all, it is inconvenient, offended talents and fallen to now can't find a job." Hearing Gu Hefan say this, Li Yiming smiled and kept talking, "Okay, you, you have long planned to leave me and run back to the United States." ”
"Haha, no, make the best use of things, make the best use of things." Gu Hefan snorted, and after a few more idle words with Li Yiming, he hung up the phone.
To fill his stomach, Li Yiming drove directly to the gymnasium of Chengda University, although it was said that he was in a state of recovery, he still planned to train at least three full days a week, and then slowly adjust according to his current state.
When he came to the stadium, it was empty, Li Yiming didn't care, and he trained alone.
Two-handed dribbling, crotch crossing, dribbling around piles, foot practice, fixed-point shooting, running shooting, non-dominant hand shooting...... Without bringing a special trainer, Li Yiming practiced according to his own method before, no caddie picked up the ball, he picked it up by himself, and when no one cared about it before, he didn't come over like this, although the efficiency was not high, but Li Yiming didn't pursue the effect, it was purely to get back to his physical state.
Without a trainer to assist in physical confrontation, he mainly practiced shooting: throwing, hooking, pull-up jumper, step-back jumper, drift shot, and long-distance three-pointer.
Although he hasn't played all season, he is still very concerned about the current situation in the league.
The NBA has entered the playoff stage, and his old club, led by boss Derrick Rose, has of course made it to the quarterfinals of the East and secured a spot.
Li Yiming is not surprised at all, Ross is a superstar: the champion landed in the NBA, as soon as he came to the Bulls, he was trained as the boss, Li Yiming won the regular season Most Valuable Player when he was not in the NBA, Li Yiming's sideways made the Bulls unstoppable all of a sudden, but it also reduced Rose's ball possession to a certain extent. Although Li Yiming's injury had a great impact on the overall strength of the Bulls, they returned to the original system with Rose as the core, relying on iron-blooded defense and Rose's personal ability, they could still win the game. Ross himself is back in the MVP race, and although he missed out on it, it's commendable enough.
However, even such a bull can only be said to have a hope of winning the championship. After all, not to mention the Western Division, which is full of heroes, but in the East, you will have to face the mountain of the Heat.
Little Emperor LeBron James is a tricky opponent even Li Yiming finds tricky, not to mention that he has two superstar-level helpers such as Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, and top role players such as Ray Allen, Sean Battier, and Mario Chalmers.
At the beginning, Li Yiming was still there, and the Bulls and Cavaliers fought seven games in the Eastern Conference Finals, and in the end, it was Li Yiming who had divine help in the last game, relying on the performance of "Jordan possession" to kill the Cavaliers.
However, this season, there is a player who has caught Li Yiming's attention.
Stephen Curry, the leading point guard for the Western Warriors. The physical fitness in the NBA can be called shabby, but the star of a playoff team is remarkable because he can be called a miraculous three-point shot.
It's really shocking, although there have been all kinds of three-point shooters in the past, Li Yiming has never seen such a top-level running position and such a high-deterrent three-point shot. Li Yiming didn't know that this person would always refresh his cognition, and later the league's three-point shooting boom also started because of this warrior, of course, this is all a later story.
But for now, Li Yiming sees something worth learning from Curry - his technical style is actually more traditional: perverted physical fitness in the position, extremely stable mid-range shooting, strong individual singles ability, excellent vision after being surrounded by multiple people, strong back-to-back singles, and three-point ability on the average line.
He is infinitely close to perfection at the shooting guard position, and even countless professional abilities in the NBA say that according to the strength he has shown, he is the only superstar in the league who has a chance to chase Jordan's pace, and even Jordan himself praises him. But for the first time, Li Yiming found that he could be completely crushed in a certain technical aspect.
It's not that I haven't seen accurate three-point shooters, Larry Bird and Reggie Miller from afar, and Ray Allen and Korver from close, but Li Yiming has seen a three-point shooter like Curry for the first time.
The perfect combination of ball control and three-point shooting, lightning-fast shooting speed, high shooting arc, the key is that a large number of shots can also maintain a very high shooting rate.
He felt that he could learn from it, of course, one person's imitation was just an imitation of Dong Shi, and Li Yiming had been combining his actual situation.
His shooting posture is a very traditional shoulder shooting, the next shooting training, he began to slightly change the shooting posture, and increased the use of leg strength, deliberately improve his shooting arc, find a balance between shooting percentage and height, and then practice the action connection from receiving the ball to shooting, in fact, he was fast enough, but now he knows that it can actually be faster, and there is still a place for in-depth practice.
At first, the hit rate was relatively low, but with continuous in-depth practice, Li Yiming became more and more accurate.
For three hours, because he still had to pick up the ball by himself, although he didn't stop, Li Yiming didn't shoot four or five hundred, and the time to pick up the ball actually accounted for the majority.
By about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, when the players of the Chengda varsity team opened the door of the stadium to train, Li Yiming was already covered in sweat, and a set of training uniforms was wet from head to end.
"Hello coach!"
"Hello coach!"
Greetings come and go.
"You're here? Practice well. Li Yiming put away the balls one by one, took a towel and draped it over his head, although he was covered in sweat, his expression did not show much tiredness.
