Chapter 44: The Captain Hits the Wall (Short Story)
When it was time for the end of class, Liu Xiaodong squeezed away from everyone's pursuit and interception, and when he came to the door of the stadium, he heard the sound of bumping balls inside, he walked in to take a look, and found that Liu Mu and Guo Cheng were practicing shooting.
After defeating Gulin University, Yanagi encountered unprecedented pressure, and his performance as captain was actually weak, and the media's evaluation of him can be imagined.
So Liu Mu came over half an hour in advance to practice, and Guo Cheng also wanted to improve his shooting ability, so he came with Liu Mu.
"You three came pretty early!" Zhang Tiejun walked out of the office, he had just watched the live broadcast of the match between Shencheng University and Hucheng University.
In the end, it was determined that their next opponent was Shencheng University, which was not good news for Hecheng University.
Compared to Gulin University, Shencheng University is even more difficult to deal with, and they have no obvious shortcomings on both offensive and defensive ends.
Feng Chenyang of Shencheng University is the player who was predicted by the CBA draft website to be selected in the top three. His precise shooting is a headache for every opponent who encounters him.
Zhang Tiejun knows that worry can't solve the problem, and the opponent will only get stronger and stronger in the future, so he can only improve the overall combat effectiveness of the players through tactical training, so that they can play tacit tactical cooperation in the game.
"Assemble!" Seeing that the players arrived one after another, Zhang Tiejun also began to arrange training tasks. This time, he put Liu Xiaodong on the starting side, while Hou Wei led the substitute.
Liu Xiaodong played with high morale, and he wanted to complete the tactics well, so he played very tough in attack, making Hou Wei, who was defending him, miserable.
Zhang Tiejun stood on the sidelines and shouted loudly from time to time, helping players who ran out of place or did not understand tactics to correct their mistakes.
Guo Cheng commanded his teammates to run, saw Liu Mu running to the penalty area, and directly hit the ground to pass, so that the latter could comfortably receive the ball.
Substitute center Yu Fei quickly stuck his position to intercept, he has improved a lot during this time, and his defensive movements are more clean and neat than before.
"I'm going to attack my junior!" Liu Mu slapped the ball and reminded that he wanted Yu Fei to defend himself well and not release water.
"Come on, Captain!" After Yu Fei finished speaking, he put his left hand on Liu Mu's waist, and his right hand continued to interfere with his dribble.
Liu Mu smiled, relying on Yu Fei to hit the three-second zone, then turned around and shot.
Zhang Tiejun shook his head, he knew that Yu Fei had made a lot of progress, but it was still not enough to defend Liu Mu alone. The difference between them is not only strength, but also the soft touch of willow.
"Dang!" A piercing iron sound sounded, which made Zhang Tiejun, who was thinking, raise his head, and he found that the basketball thrown by Liu Mu actually didn't score!
Liu Mu raised his hand embarrassedly, indicating that he did not play well. Guo Cheng smiled and didn't speak, he thought that Liu Mu just didn't feel good for a while.
But the next training proved that Guo Cheng's idea was wrong. In the next round, Yanagi shook off Yu Fei, ran to the free throw line to catch the ball, and shot again or hit the iron.
Guo Cheng was a little surprised, the free throw line position is the most accurate area for Liu Mu's shooting, not to mention that there is no interference in front of him, how can he shoot the basket without scoring it?
Liu Xiaodong also glanced at Liu Mu unconsciously, feeling that the captain might have encountered a problem, for example, he suddenly couldn't find his state. He had it in his junior year of high school, and it was a kind of sudden loss of all touch, no matter how much you shot, you couldn't score.
After that, it was a few more rounds of attack, but Guo Cheng still passed the ball to Liu Mu, hoping that he could find his touch again.
But it backfired, Liu Mu's movements were still so clean and neat, that is, he shook off the defender and couldn't throw the ball into the basket, and he kept rubbing his hands hard, but to no avail.
Off the field, Zhang Tiejun is also in a hurry, you must know that Liu Mu is the pillar of the team, if he loses his offensive ability, then the team will not want to win Shencheng University.
The opponent's center Yu Dongcheng is not a vegetarian, his offensive means are not less than the previous Zhang Yuhang, coupled with his stout figure, it is a defensive problem.
Now Liu Mu suddenly couldn't find the feeling of attacking, which made Zhang Tiejun, who had always been calm, unable to bear it, and immediately stopped this training.
"Yanagi, are you injured there, which affects the shooting feel?"
"No, Coach! I don't know what's going on, but I just found the shooting feeling, I've adjusted the shooting arc many times and it still doesn't work! Liu Mu stood in front of Zhang Tiejun in a depressed mood, he didn't know what was wrong with him, he shot well before, but now he can't shoot basketball.
"I know, maybe you're too tired during this time, causing nervous fatigue, let's sit down and rest first." Zhang Tiejun comforted that he hoped that what he said was true, and Liu Mu would get better after a while.
Liu Mu didn't speak, and after a ten-minute break, he quickly joined the training on the field. But the result was still the same, he still couldn't find the feeling of offense, except for two baskets, none of the shots were hit.
This made the already stressful heart even heavier.
