014: You're a starter
It's been a while since Wayne became a school celebrity.
He defeated Rashid. Wallace's rumors are now something that almost everyone who pays attention to basketball has heard of.
Of course, the "facts" that everyone knows are more or less exaggerated.
And the impact of this incident on Wayne's life is not a star.
Now, in addition to being stared at when walking on campus, Wayne will often meet girls who ask for their mobile phone numbers.
At first, Wayne felt quite accomplished.
In my two lives combined, I have never been so popular with girls.
But over time, I get tired.
The main thing is that the phone number is useless, because Wayne is tired and half dead at the end of every training session.
Before the start of the season, Wayne's biggest task was to gain weight and strength.
With the dual combination of nutritionist and trainer, Wayne eats a lot every day, seven meals a day, but not too much at each meal.
Achieved the legendary Eat Less, Eat More.
This helps Wayne digest and absorb, and can avoid gaining weight as much as possible.
If you eat too much, your training volume will not fall. Otherwise, everything you eat will turn into fat.
Of course, it's not okay to gain weight too quickly. Sudden weight gain can place a huge burden on critical areas such as the knees and only increase the risk of injury.
As a result, Wayne's weight gain is carried out under the rigorous calculations of nutritionists and trainers.
One thing to say, the level of training in the NCAA may be higher than that of domestic professional competitions in the same period in 2003.
However, even within safe reach, Wayne is tired of being Sabi.
I used to think that it was difficult to lose weight, but now I know that it is even more difficult to gain weight!
Every day, the iron is cocooned.
But Wayne's sweat paid off accordingly.
In just over a month, Wayne's weight has risen from 91 kilograms to 95 kilograms.
Don't look at the numbers, there is not much change, but the change in body shape is obvious.
In the past, Wayne was just emaciated, but now it would be more appropriate to describe his figure as strong.
The muscle lines on his arms have been trained very clearly, and even if he takes off his jersey, the lines of the muscles on his torso are very good-looking, and he is no longer a "rib man".
Moreover, it may be easy for ordinary people to gain 4 kilograms by hoarding fat, but for Wayne, he needs to gain 4 kilograms of muscle.
Strength training, eating a lot of protein and carbohydrates, and eating and lying dead are two very different ways to gain weight.
Trying to build muscles, even if it weighs just 4 kilograms, is a very painful and difficult process.
After gaining 4 kilograms, Wayne's strength was also trained to 35 by himself.
No matter how hard you work, it shouldn't be a problem to get to 40.
Wayne was concerned about gaining weight and gaining strength, but he wasn't in such a hurry.
Because almost everyone who goes from college to career has to go through this process.
No rookie is as strong as a mountain when he first enters the league.
Compared with weight gain, the gap in talent is the most difficult to make up.
But fortunately, Wayne now has a system in place to help him turn things around. Of course, this also requires Wayne to sweat and blood for this.
After all, you can't get much growth point just by iron.
So on the basis of crazy weight gain, Wayne has to continue to practice with the team every day, and he has to brush up on the growth points one-on-one with Mr. Tony, which is not too sour.
In this way, Wayne has no energy to follow up with the girls who leave the phone after training every day.
Every day after returning to the dormitory, Wayne feels that the happiest thing is to lie in bed and relax.
Over time, Wayne forgot all about the faces corresponding to those phone numbers.
So, in the end, not a single phone number came in handy.
Even with the system, it's not easy to become a star.
Listening to Zhang Erwan's story before, Wayne only had the word "wo grass" in his heart.
But now that he puts himself in Zhang Dashuai's shoes, Wayne must add one more sentence: "Awesome!" ”
What physical fitness!
I still have the strength to mess around outside after the game every day.
Fortunately, such days have finally come to an end.
In early October, just three days before the Cowboys were finally due to face their first warm-up game opponent, Vanderbilt University, trainers told Wayne that his weight gain training was over.
"Gaining weight while playing is very easy to get injured and consumes a lot of energy. Now you have gained 4 kilograms, which is the most appropriate number for your health. So, as the season enters the competition period, we have decided to pause your weight gain training. ”
The trainer looked at Wayne's sturdy body, and suddenly a huge sense of accomplishment came to him.
"It's over...... Is it? Wayne was immediately extremely sad, and almost killed him for the extra four kilograms of muscle.
In addition to the grinding muscle-building program, in the afternoon, Tony. Aaron also temporarily canceled his one-on-one training with Wayne.
"The warm-up game is about to start, so let's take a break in the next few days and focus all our energy on the game." Tony. Aaron sat in the locker room and looked up at Wayne with a look of longing in his eyes.
Of course, it's not about Wayne, it's about the game.
In the last month's one-on-one training, Tony. On more than one occasion, Allen expressed to Wayne his determination to win the championship.
Because only by going further in the March Madness tournament can you be seen by more scouts.
As a senior who has been promoted to a higher level, Tony. Aaron suffered a big loss in terms of age, so he was not very favored.
Now, in the era when countless high school students are yearning for the league, countless young talents have dazzled the NBA.
So, the senior players are at a disadvantage from the start.
Therefore, Mr. Tony must make up for this disadvantage at all costs. His family is counting on him.
In the latest draft predictions, Tony. Allen could only make it to the second round.
Of course, Wayne's sophomore year wasn't much better.
While rumors of him beating Wallace have been in the thick lately, NBA general managers aren't stupid.
They won't jump to conclusions until they've seen Wayne play.
Wayne can't even make it to the second round of the prediction draft now, and he is still in a state of defeat in the prediction.
Tony. Aaron's mood, Wayne understands very well. Moreover, Mr. Tony, like Wayne, has not rested this month, and he is with him every day, which is already very interesting.
Occasionally give your thighs a holiday, so it's better to hug them later.
"I agree, Tony. Three days later, you'll blow everyone's mind. Wayne nodded, and Tony. Aaron bumps fists.
"You will too, Wayne."
"Me? I'm happy to be able to start. Wayne shook his head, and said that Coach Sutton has not yet announced the starting list for the new season.
I guess I want to take a good look at it through the warm-up game.
At the moment, Wayne's strengths are obvious, which are shooting, height, reach, and blocks.
But in addition to Wayne, the Cowboys also have a big guy with rough skills but who weighs 110 kilograms, Randy Brown. Carter.
In the NCAA, 110 kilograms is really a Big Mac.
Although Carter has been blocked by Wayne in training this month, he can really carry it.
For Sutton, who admires muscular defense, Carter seems to be a better fit.
"Coach Sutton, Coach Sutton, I hope you can see the pearls and don't be blinded by Carter's weight." Thinking of this, Wayne prayed silently in his heart.
Wait, Add. Sutton!
By the way, this name was always very familiar to Wayne when he first met Sutton.
Now he remembered, Add. Sutton was inducted into the 2020 Basketball Hall of Fame!
In Wayne's previous life, because of the relationship between Kobe, Garnett and Duncan who were inducted into the 2020 Hall of Fame, he was very concerned about that Hall of Fame.
In the full list, he has seen Eddie. Sutton's name.
It's just that at that time, Wayne could be said to know nothing about Sutton. Because in China, the NCAA is not very popular, and there is very little related consultation.
Wayne vaguely remembers that in the Hall of Famer's introduction, it was written that Sutton had won the NCAA Coach of the Year honor four times in his career, with a career win percentage of 71 percent.
In short, a very powerful leader!
are all in the Hall of Fame, can they still be parallel imports?
If you are a high-level coach......
Well, maybe it won't be so rigid. Perhaps, Sutton will really try the space type of play that is not in vogue right now?
"Hahaha, what are you talking about, you must be the starter. You and I, we're going to join forces to win the league championship. "Tony. Aaron stood up, his eyes firm, "Definitely." ”
In this way, Wayne rarely returned to the dormitory early one day, and it was rare for him to relax his muscles.
Of course, eggs and boiled chicken breasts still can't escape.
Wayne now sees Cody drooling as he eats ice cream.
Just after dinner and about to clean up the table, Wayne's brick Nokia suddenly rang out.
At first, Wayne thought it was Cody's guy telling him to go out and fool around again.
But after taking out his phone, Wayne was stunned.
It was Eddie who called. Sutton!
"Coach!" Wayne immediately answered the phone and didn't dare to delay for a second.
"Wei, I'm sorry to bother you now, you're still in school, right?" On the other end, Sutton's tone was unhurried.
"I'm in the dorm."
"If it's convenient, can you come to the arena now? I'd like to get some information for you. ”
"Materials?" Wayne hadn't figured out the situation yet, but he had already walked out of the dorm door.
"That's right, the next game, your counterpoint profile. I was going to send it to you tomorrow when I practiced, but I think as a starter, you should prepare in advance. ”
"Okay, I'll come right now...... Wait, you mean, starters? Wayne clenched his fists, done?
"That's right, the starters. I see your progress and hard work, and this is the opportunity you deserve. Play well in three days' time, don't make me regret the decision, Way. ”
After Sutton finished speaking, he hung up the phone with a grin.
Just now, he and his son and assistant coach Sean have studied the starting lineup for the new season.
Point guard Lucas, point guard Toney, small forward Graham, center Holmes.
This lineup is full of impact and tough defensively.
But the biggest drawback is that the outside projection is very unstable.
It's okay to beat an ordinary opponent, but if you meet a strong opponent in a tournament, someone can strangle the cowboys with one move.
After weighing the rights and disadvantages, Sutton gave up on the big Carter and brought Wayne up.
While it still seems unusual for a power forward to go out and shoot threes, Sutton really needs a starter who can shoot threes.
Wayne was the best choice.
At the same time, Wayne's system taskbar reacted immediately.
"Mission: Prove your strength, done.
The B-level raffle package has been added to the backpack. ”
