Chapter 30: Training Maniac

Zhou Xuan lightly lowered his voice and said in one breath: "Joan closed her eyes and prayed before eating to prove that she is a Christian. Before eating, she brought a glass of water and brought medicine, I think your father should have any illness that needs to be taken before eating, he took the water and drank it immediately without saying Xie Lu Xie, proving that Joan will always help him think, not only today. Later I found out that he ate less meat and didn't drink alcohol, probably because he had high blood pressure. Joan cares about you very much, you helped you with vegetables when you were eating, she asked you how you felt twice, would you like to eat again? You have a great relationship. You were the first to finish it, but they said you ate a lot and thanked me. I think probably because you have a bad appetite or have a stomach bug or something, that's what caused you to be a little thinner than Ashley, maybe I made something that increased your appetite and I'm so happy. In every way, Joan is a rare good person, and your family harmony is enviable. That's what I just saw today. ”

Mary looks at Zhou Xuan like a monster, how can a normal person pay attention to so many things at once, and the head of the analysis is not far from the real situation, if this is a fan, how detailed does it have to be investigated by our family? But isn't it an accident that he was asked to be a chef?

"Is this really what you thought about for a moment? I can't believe you can deal with Superman with a shaved head, right? (Superman's arch-nemesis, the bald guy Lex.) Luthor is a high-level criminal with an IQ of 200. )

"I have this kind of brain, I always think about a lot of things unconsciously, I can't control it, you will get used to it after knowing me for a long time." Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"What did I wear when we first met last night?" Mary asked deliberately, wanting to do a test.

"Dressed in black, black stockings with holes, 4 rings, bead chains, thick smoky makeup, smoking a cigarette." Zhou Xuan replied casually.

"What brand of cigarette do I have?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm never a smoker."

I still remember what Mary was wearing, and Zhou Xuan was right. "You're a man, don't you smoke or drink? There are too few such people. ”

"If I smoke a lot and drink a lot of bouncing, I'd love it, but unfortunately not. I don't even drink Coke to play, I'm leaving, and I want to practice on the course here in the afternoon. Sasha has already said that, right? ”

"Well, you go, bye."

It seems that I think too much, he has no purpose, but his brain is not the same as that of a normal person. Mary felt that she couldn't pull Zhou Xuan to talk anymore, he was just cooking, and she hadn't eaten yet. Seeing Zhou Xuan leave, she was a little uncomfortable, thinking: Many men want to please me, and they don't have a chance to talk to me, why did he chat with me for a few words as if he was impatient, playing basketball is more important than talking to me? Does Miss Ben look unattractive?

For Zhou Xuan at the moment, basketball is really much more important than chatting with the Olsen sisters. He ate something, left the villa and took a ride home to get a basketball and a few clothes, and was going to live in the villa for the time being. Mitchell supported his choice and returned to living alone.

Walking into the court with a basketball, no one came to this place, quietly, and every time the ball was slapped, it was extremely loud. This venue is much better than UCLA University. Usually practice, and then cook and relax, Zhou Xuan feels that it is too worthwhile.

Zhou Xuan first recalled the point guard experience that he often discussed with Mitchell.

Mitchell said that the basic skills must be solid, and you must have excellent ball control skills to protect the basketball from being broken, so that you can organize calmly. Excellent passing skills are also a must, as well as a certain ability to break through and shoot. If you have these conditions, you are a qualified point guard, but there are several elements to pay attention to the next level.

The first is the ability to read the game, which Zhou Xuan has done very well now. The point guard controls the pace of the game, when to be fast, when to be slow, when to score quickly, and when to run out of 24 seconds. Who has the best touch on the court and who has a clear advantage over the defenders is up to the point guard to judge. Point guards need to be cool-headed and can't mess around.

The second is offensive selection, which is what the NBA often refers to as shooting selection. The point guard dribbles to the frontcourt and chooses as soon as possible whether to break through, share the ball, shoot, or give it to his teammates to play alone. If a person always chooses individual singles at inopportune times, he cannot be called a truly good point guard. "Lone wolf" Marbury is prone to this kind of problem, so much so that now the New York Knicks don't need him.

The third is good tactical literacy, which every player should have, especially the point guard, because the point guard is the starting point of the tactic and the key to determining whether the tactic can be completed. A point guard who does not execute coaching tactics is by no means a competent point guard.

Thinking clearly about what to do, Zhou Xuan practiced the basic skills, shooting the ball and dribbling the ball. He is on his own, and he can't practice organizational skills, so he can only practice dribbling and shooting.

This summer, he set himself the goal of shooting accurately from the outside, at least in the case of no one to defend him, and the three-point shot can ensure half of the shooting rate, so that there will be no situation where the opponent puts him on the perimeter to defend with two steps. As soon as the defender encounters the opponent's compression defense, he is eager to try a few more threes, and the guard who can't shoot a three-point is crippled.

After practicing with the ball for half an hour, Zhou Xuan began to practice long-range shooting. At this point, he remembered cooking again. If you want to cut meat and vegetables quickly, you need excellent knife skills, you must flexibly control the wrist, not that the cutting force is good, but to find the texture of the meat to get the knife, the other hand also has a doorway, the position is not right, you will accidentally cut the hand, and the force is small and can not be fixed.

I can use a knife flexibly when cooking, and I can also use my wrist in the middle of the pitch, but the three points are not accurate, what is the problem? The amount of force is too small for fear of not being able to throw it into the place, so I unconsciously add force to affect the feel? Zhou Xuan often thought about this question, but he couldn't find an answer. Some people can't shoot in their whole life, and he doesn't want to be like that.

Dribbling, shooting, Zhou Xuan did boring exercises, until five o'clock in the afternoon, went back to his residence to take a simple shower, changed his clothes, and began to prepare dinner.

The Olsen sisters did not go out in the afternoon, their latest position is "fashion icons", and their latest identity is the CEO of their own brand "TheRow". They just need to get dressed once in a while and go out to shoot commercials. Zhou Xuan left Mary with the impression of a "weirdo", and she somehow wanted to know what he was doing in the afternoon, so she asked the maid to see if he was on the court. The answer was that it had always been, and it had been a whole afternoon since I got the basketball back.

Ashley asked, "Mary, why do you care about that guy?" ”

"He's weird, he's shooting and pitching all afternoon, does that look like a 19-year-old doing it?" Mary said lightly.

"Basketball players are probably like that, right? Didn't you say that Kobe Bryant got up at four in the morning to practice? Ashley disagreed.

"Is Kobe Bryant a normal person? Forget it, let's not talk about that. ”

That night, Zhou Xuan made a few specialty dishes, which satisfied everyone's stomachs again, and they ate a lot at noon, but they were still very appetizing.

When she left the main villa, Mary didn't talk to Zhou Xuan again, but Ashley stopped him and thanked him.

"It's too polite, you invited me to come, of course I have to do it with my heart, don't say thank you again."

Ashley said lightly: "I said Xie Lu Xie because of Mary, she has always had a bad appetite, but she has eaten a lot today." She's had anorexia, don't you know the way? ”

"Really? It seems that my name as Stephen is not in vain, and the food I cook also has the effect of peeing cow balls. Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"I've seen that movie and it's been fun. And I think you're better than the god of food in the movie, and you're more handsome than him, bye. Ashley walked away with her hands behind her back.

Stephen Chow is too short and too thin in the eyes of Americans, and it is completely unaesthetic. Zhou Xuan's height is also relatively outstanding among Americans, and his figure is also good.

There was an NBA game in the evening, and after eating, Zhou Xuan went to the housekeeper Sasha House to watch it together. Lakers VS Jazz, Jazz's lineup has some flaws, although the blocking is powerful, but there are too few people who can score on the bench, experts generally predict that the Lakers will advance 4-1 or 4-2, and the game is indeed the Lakers who have the upper hand.

Maybe because he won the regular season MVP for the first time in his career, Kobe Bryant was extremely excited, unstoppable on the offensive end, and when he played against the Nuggets in the first round, he cut 30+ as easily as chopping melons and vegetables, and in the second round, he also continued his excellent form, and his shooting percentage was higher than in the regular season.

During the intermission, Zhou Xuan remembered about Mary's anorexia, was a little curious, and asked, "Sasha, has Miss Mary ever suffered from anorexia?" ”

"You didn't know the Tao before?" Sasha was stunned.

"Ashley just told me that Mary had a good appetite today, and thanked me. Such a good life can actually get that kind of disease. Zhou Xuan sighed.

"This is something that Americans know for more than two years. She was in a better mood last year, and she was the same again after that incident this year. Sasha sighed.

"Since many people know the Tao, isn't it too much for me to ask? Can you tell me about it? I have been in the United States for less than two years, I rarely watch TV, and I don't pay attention to the American entertainment industry. ”

In the afternoon, when he saw Zhou Xuan practicing hard, Sasha no longer doubted him, he must be working to make money, and he had no purpose. Just watched the NBA game, and he was very serious, it was no longer just watching the excitement, it was more like learning. When Delon changed direction and broke through to the basket, he stared at the screen, and his hands and shoulders also moved, this kind of obsession, ordinary people can't do it at all.

What made Sasha feel a little helpless was that Zhou Xuan actually said that he had never heard of the name of the Olsen sisters before, and it was too lonely and unheard. Even in China, the two sisters have a lot of fans, but Zhou Xuan's eyes don't look like they're lying.

"Then I'll tell you a little bit." Sasha said lightly, anyway, it's all information that can be found on the Internet, and it's not a secret.
