Chapter 192: Single Shot and Double Shot (Update It's Coming!) )
After pulling his fingers, Sun Hao turned around and left.
He didn't suggest that Jordan choose Yao Ming or anything.
On the one hand, Jordan is notoriously not fond of listening to other people's opinions, and on the other hand, he has just cheated him, he must be very resistant to his own advice, and it is counterproductive to say it.
After the trial, Sun Hao and Da Gasol chatted for a while.
Gasol looked in a good mood and could see that he had been offered the tryout he wanted.
After the conversation was over, Sun Hao left with Yao Ming.
"How? How many tryout invitations? ”
Compared with Big Gasol, Sun Hao is obviously more concerned about Yao Ming's situation.
"Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Detroit Pistons, New Jersey Nets, Memphis Grizzlies, Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers don't."
Yao Ming counted with his fingers.
"Oh, and the Chicago Bulls, and neither do the Washington Wizards."
Sun Hao listened to him happy, these are all the top ten teams in this year's draft.
It's definitely a good thing that this one joint tryout has so many tryout invitations.
"You've been busy for the next month."
Sun Hao opened his mouth and said.
With so many teams, each trial team has a different schedule.
Just like him at the beginning, Yao Ming wants to fly all over the United States.
This is different from history, where Yao Ming only participated in one demonstration training, and he didn't perform very well that time.
"Well, thanks to you, they have a lot of recognition for the Chinese players."
Yao Ming said with a smile.
The predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the shade, just like Yao Ming's outstanding performance in history allowed Yi Jianlian to get a higher rank.
Sun Hao's performance in his rookie season also made it easier for Yao Ming to be recognized by NBA teams.
"Are you in Chicago these two days? The one-man tryout in Chicago was just two days away. ”
"Yes."
Sun Hao nodded.
The Bulls were the highest-pick on any team that invited Yao Ming to try out.
If Yao Ming can really go to the Bulls in the end, it will be a very good choice.
The Chinese market in Chicago is not small, and the Bulls are in ruins, and the interior line of Yao Ming and Brand will be invincible in a little time.
As long as Krauss returns to the vision of the Bulls dynasty and picks a reliable perimeter, the team rebuild is complete.
Of course, there was another reason why he stayed in Chicago.
Jordan taught him middle distance and would be in Chicago as well.
"Oh yes, do you want me to recommend you an agent?"
Sun Hao remembered this at this time.
If Yao Ming signs a contract after the draft, he will need an agent at that time.
Fu Paul has had a good past season and he can be introduced to Yao Ming.
"No, my agent negotiated it two years ago."
"So fast?"
Sun Hao was a little surprised, but he wasn't too surprised.
Judging from the contact, this is also in line with Yao Ming's independent character.
"Well, Bill Duffy."
Bill Duffy?
Sun Hao had heard of this name, and Nash's agent was also him.
Oh yes, Yao Ming's agent in history seems to be him.
The butterfly's wings were not fanned hard enough, and this period of history has not been changed.
And he also remembered that Bill Duffy was a rare kind of "Mr. Good" in the agent circle, which should be very suitable for Yao Ming.
The next day, Zhang Weiping and Su Qun came.
Zhang Weiping didn't come out of the joint trial because of something, but he came as soon as it was empty.
He also came with a mission, to do a pre-draft interview with Yao Ming.
As for Su Qun, he was called by Sun Hao.
Mr. Su proved that he is a first-class blowing master in the past season, and this Yao Ming is going to be drafted, and he must be indispensable at this time.
Yao Ming, Zhang Weiping, and Su Qunlu went to the program, and Sun Hao went to the United Center according to the agreement with Jordan.
He arrived there an hour early, after all, it was Jordan, and the attitude still had to be there.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that Jordan had already started shooting there.
And depending on the degree of wetness of the clothes, I should have been practicing for a while.
No one is born a basketball god.
"You're early."
Seeing Sun Hao coming, Jordan stopped the shooting action in his hand and spoke.
"You didn't come earlier?"
Sun Hao replied.
"Let's get started."
Jordan didn't say much.
Don't say it, I usually don't feel much when I look at Jordan narcissism and like to pretend to be forced, but after it really starts, there is indeed an indescribable personal charm.
Jordan didn't directly start teaching Sun Hao the middle distance, but first told him a shooting concept.
That's what Baker hadn't told Sun Hao before.
Shooting, in general, can be divided into two categories, single-action shooting and double-action shooting.
Single-action shooting, the action is characterized by the transfer of force from the toes to the legs, waist, and until the hands are raised to shoot, which is a completely coherent action.
Representative figures: Nash, the future Curry, and the current Sun Hao are also counted.
Double-action shooting, the action is characterized by jumping high, at the highest point or falling is to use core stability and wrist strength to shoot, jumping and shooting are two actions.
Representative figures: Kobe, Maddy, future Anthony, this is also the shooting method used by most players in the NBA now.
There is no absolute good or bad way of shooting, and there are advantages and disadvantages to both shooting styles.
The advantages of single-action shooting: labor-saving, suitable for small or young players, extremely fast shooting speed, shaking with dribbling in ball-holding sports, or playing a vacant position directly shot for a short time, difficult to be blocked.
Cons: It's easy to die in the face of big men or multi-person packs after stopping the ball, see the '18 All-Star Finals Durant and LeBron wrapping Curry.
The point of double-action shooting: you can pull dry and can lean back, and after practice, although the opponent is 2, 3, and 4 people are sandwiched, and the defense is close to the face, you can still jump up slowly, lean back, and force the shot out at a very high position.
Disadvantages: difficult, extremely high requirements for strength, slow shots, and because of the high jump, it is easy to be padded, increasing the risk of injury.
"You're shooting in a single move, which is great for outside shots, but it's easy to die in mid-range shots, and if you switch to a double-action shot, you're going to lose your current shooting characteristics."
Every industry's top existence sees things the most thoroughly, and Jordan is the same.
His meaning is also obvious, Sun Hao's shooting style determines that it is difficult for him to go to various backs on the inside like Kobe, Maddy, and even him.
"But you're lucky because you're meeting the god of basketball."
Jordan's next words were very Jordan.
"My mid-range shooting, I should use more catch-and-shoot shots, which is what I've been saying to Richard for the last two months, and he's not in good physical condition."
Richard, referring to Richard Hamilton of the Wizards, after the second uncle Huo traded, he is already the current star of the Wizards.
It turns out that there is Jordan behind the silent support.
"If it's a stop-and-go after a breakthrough with the ball, I have two suggestions."
"When you're shooting with a single move, do you find that the slower you shoot, the more consistent you are?"
Jordan didn't say a suggestion right away, but asked Sun Hao a question first.
Sun Hao nodded, this is not only in the game, when the All-Star three-point game was played, after he reduced his shooting speed, the shooting rate increased significantly.
"That's because your dribbling right now isn't enough to support you to shoot so frequently with the ball."
Jordan said something that sounded a bit tongue-twisting.
But the meaning is embarrassing, that is, Sun Hao's current dribbling is too lame.
When he said this, Jordan also gave a demonstration.
Single-action shooting pursues speed, and shooting is done before the dribble is over, and even like Curry, it can be done during the dribble.
"That's the first piece of advice, before you dribble OK, reduce the frequency of your shots, which will help you in the mid-range of stops."
Sun Hao nodded.
That should help his three-point shot as well.
He's had games from beyond the three-point line in the past season, but not much, and it's really a matter of consistency.
Jordan got to the point.
"The second piece of advice is that one-action shots are not destined to be too difficult, so you should be ready to pass the ball at any time while you're in there."
Sun Hao had a smile on his face after hearing this.
After all, Jordan gave a total of three suggestions.
In the middle distance, play more catches and shoots, if you want to hold the ball, reduce the speed of the shot, and be ready to pass at any time when you want to hold the ball and stop the middle distance.
These three points are not very clever, but they are really pertinent.
Jordan's theory is probably not as professional as Baker's, but he is a real fighter, and his vision is more accurate than anyone else.
Of course, only in the field of basketball technology.
After the theory is over, then the practice is on.
Sun Hao was a little uncomfortable at first, and even fine-tuning the shooting action had a great impact on the entire shooting.
Because the so-called muscle memory cannot be changed overnight.
In addition, I really didn't train for the middle distance before, and the training performance was a little ugly.
However, the habits he developed in the system gave him the habit of persevering, and he could practice for more than half an hour without realizing it.
Jordan laughed playfully at first, but nodded casually after reading a paragraph.
Techniques can be practiced, but some qualities and habits are difficult to develop.
When the practice was over, an old man and a young man sat on the sidelines, panting for breath.
Sun Hao is because he has practiced too much, and Jordan is a little old.
"Michael, you know Yao, right?"
Sun Hao asked after relieving himself.
"Well, he's doing well in training camp, oh yes, he's from the same country as you."
Jordan said and picked up Gatorade and took a sip, it seemed that he didn't notice Yao Ming.
"He's living with me now, and in two days he's going to try out for the Bulls, and I'll be with him."
"It was a great opportunity."
Jordan nodded, although he has a conflict with Klaus, but the Bulls are his home team after all, and he will not resent the team.
"I mean, didn't you think about him?"
Sun Hao didn't advise Yao Ming like Jordan before, but he still hoped that Yao Ming could get a tryout.
Because if there is no chance, it means that the possibility of Yao Ming becoming the champion is zero.
"I've got someone to choose."
Jordan smiled, Sun Hao and Yao Ming are from the same country, and it is not surprising that Sun Hao would say this.
"I won't directly suggest that you choose Yao, because you have a very accurate eye for people."
Sun Hao said a big disobedient word, and his heart hurt a little, but he couldn't say it.
Sure enough, Jordan smiled after listening to it, and he loved to hear this kind of thing.
"But I still suggest you give Yao a chance to try, you know there are so many big men this year, if they can directly face to face, maybe you can see it more intuitively."
Sun Hao continued.
Jordan listened thoughtfully, and finally nodded.
A tryout is just a tryout.
The cost of one more place is actually very small, and it should be that he is in a good mood to train with Sun Hao today, so it is an extra gift.
After the training, Sun Hao returned to the hotel.
Yao Ming also came back over there, but like Sun Hao, he was also sweating profusely.
After he made a documentary, he should have gone to find a stadium to train.
Yao Ming can play in the NBA, talent is one thing, character is one thing, and another aspect is this kind of self-discipline.
Early the next morning, Sun Hao arrived at the United Center for the third time.
On this day, it was a separate tryout for the Bulls.
Before going out, Sun Hao did not forget to bring his thermos cup, and this kind of separate trial training will last for a long time.
If he accompanies him, it is a must-have.
Yao Ming's previously mentioned agent, Bill Duffy, also came.
Duffy looks young, in his forties, with a round face and short hair, and looks like that kind of good person.
But speaking of which, Duffy is not a big-name agent in the NBA, and he started out by relationships.
The first player to sign was NFL's Ronnie Lot, also his childhood friend.
The player he really started out with was Antonio Davis of the current Raptors.
This season, Davis was selected as an All-Star, and his fame was launched.
But Duffy does have a vision, as Yao Ming said, people have become his agent two years ago.
And seeing that Sun Hao was also there, he also took the initiative to say hello and chat about some things.
The success of any one person is by no means accidental.
The trial began soon, because the joint trial had just ended, and those static trials were not tested today, and they directly entered the confrontation link.
This time for the trial, except for Kwame Brown, several high-quality big men from this session all came.
Chandler, Gasol, Eddie Curry, Eddie Griffin, Desaquener Diop and, of course, Yao Ming.
Just like when Yao Ming tried out with the Mavericks, there was a one-on-one confrontation under the basket.
The difference is that this is a wheel battle, where the winner stays on the field, and the loser prepares for his turn in the next round.
First up are Eddie Curry and Eddie Griffin.
Both of them are named Eddie, but they are very different in size.
With a weight of 2.08 meters and 109 kilograms, Griffin is an inside swingman, and his height and weight are not bad.
But compared to Curry, Curry's weight of 2.13,133 kilograms is simply a little O'Neal.
The confrontation between the two is also completely one-sided.
Not only does Curry have a massive body, but he also has the flexibility and skill to match his size, and he can even roll over and shoot jumpers.
Griffin was suppressed and didn't even get a chance to attack.
In the first round, Griffin was beheaded.
This is unconsciously reminiscent of the giant shark O'Neill.
"He's like a little shark."
Klaus sighed after watching it for a while, and his emotions were slightly excited.
Griffin was followed by Gasol, Chandler and Diop.
Gasol was also suppressed and had no way to do it, but Chandler and Diop played well.
But the common denominator of the latter two is that they are strong in defense and weak in attack, and they both lost in the end.
Yao Ming was the last to play.
His opponent was Eddie Curry, who had completed a four-game winning row and had just been given the nickname "Little Shark" by Klaus.
At this time, the Bulls' coaching staff was already focused on Curry, and they didn't even look at Yao Ming, who was about to play.
"Take it easy."
Sun Hao saw the situation on and off the field and said.
Yao Ming nodded.
Watching Yao Ming play, Sun Hao took out a thermos cup from his schoolbag.
Inside is goji berry tea that has just been brewed in the morning.
He took a small sip, which was a little hot, so he opened the lid and put it aside first, sat down and looked at the field.
ps: I just whispered to Shui Short about why he is so short, so the update is late, he said that his girlfriend has limited energy around him, well, he tastes it himself...... Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
