When he woke up the next day, Li Liang felt a little groggy in his head.

Training in the system consumes a considerable amount of mental power.

In the second mission, although Li Liang successfully broke into the finals, it was a pity that he accidentally made Larry Bird the best state, allowing him to get a high score of 25 points, and elevating the task to a star-level difficulty.

After that, Li Liang scored 23 points in the final, a very good score, but in the end he still lost and was mercilessly taunted by Bird.

That's a bad feeling.

Even if you know that it is simulated by the system, the people in it are all NPCs.

But everything was too real, and the frustration after the defeat enveloped Li Liang until he got up.

Li Liang rubbed his eyes and found that his roommate Wei Dazhi was not there.

This kid didn't come home last night, and he must have succeeded at the party.

If he wasn't there, what would he have done today's training?

Li Liang is a senior this year, and it is graduation season, but he doesn't have much to do.

In four years, he has already completed his credits.

Moreover, the grades in all subjects are good, the thesis and social practice are qualified, and there is no problem at all in graduation.

The University of Kentucky does not need to write a dissertation or defense, and you can graduate with a degree certificate if you meet the requirements for graduation.

Li Liang doesn't need to worry about his work, anyway, he is already determined to participate in the NBA draft and take the road of basketball.

If you don't succeed in the election, consider playing in the minor league and take your time to find opportunities.

He thought that if he couldn't play in the NBA with the [Almighty King] system, it would be a shame for the system.

If it really doesn't work, for example, if the system suddenly disappears one day, then Li Liang has no choice but to return to China to sell tractors and pig feed, and inherit his father's assets of hundreds of millions.

In order not to sell tractors and pig feed, he must train hard and pass this star-level difficult task first!

Just do it, it's more than 10 o'clock in the morning, wash up and have a meal, Li Liang changed into sportswear and went straight to the stadium.

The arena is still empty today, the season is over, and if nothing else, the team will be less than half of the team.

Now, the school's admissions office is probably already looking for new players, and the NCAA championship title will definitely add a lot to them.

Their goal this year is said to be USA Today's All-American Player, Nolens Knoll.

A talented interior player who is also tall and has long arms, and hopes to use him to fill the team's interior void after Davis leaves.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Li Liang anymore.

After the warm-up, Li Liang continued to practice three points alone.

Without Wei Dazhi's help, Li Liang's speed slowed down a lot, and he had to pick up the ball himself after throwing.

Just when he was bothered, someone opened the door of the gymnasium, and Li Liang saw that it was the team's head coach Kalipari.

"Hey, John!"

Li Liang greeted Kalipari.

Calipari looked in good spirits, in his coaching uniform, and it looked like he wasn't drained last night or had a lot of energy.

"Hi Bruce, you were in the limelight at the prom yesterday, if you enter the entertainment industry, maybe you can have a place."

Calipari said that he had been to the same party yesterday and had seen Li Liang on the dance floor as he was on the basketball court.

"No, I don't want to get into the entertainment industry, I just want to get into the NBA." Li Liang said, continuing to practice three points, he shot five in a row at the top of the arc, which was not bad, and scored four.

Calipari stepped forward and helped Li Liang pick up the ball, then put the ball back into the basket and pushed it over.

"Thank you, John."

"I heard that you practiced your three-point shooting here all afternoon yesterday, and I wondered if you would come today, but I didn't expect you to be there."

Calipari happened to meet the gym's caretaker in the morning, and the caretaker brought it up to him, saying that Bruce Lee had been training at the gym for an afternoon.

Li Liang said: "How is it, aren't you very moved?" Are you infected by my perseverance? ”

Calipari smiled and said, "Stinky boy, don't come to this set, I still want to say that it's really hard for you to get into the NBA, even if you train every day from today, it's still hard." ”

Li Liang said: "John, don't persuade me, you know that I won't hit the south wall and won't look back." ”

Li Liang thought to himself, Lao Tzu has systematic help, can he still tell you?

"Yes," said Calipari, "I'm not here to persuade you, I'm here to help you." Your spirit is commendable, and if Jones or others had your efforts, they would have played better. ”

"How are you going to help me?"

"Of course, I use the coach's way to help you, is it possible that I just pick up the ball for you?"

After speaking, Calipari helped Li Liang pick up the ball, and at the same time instructed Li Liang's shooting posture and steps.

Calipari is the head coach of Kentucky, with more than a dozen players on the team, and it is impossible for him to coach a certain technique one by one on weekdays, let alone that Li Liang is just a water cooler.

Now, he is able to tutor Li Liang individually.

The effect of practicing alone is completely different from having someone watch and correct it.

Although Calippari is not a professional shooting coach, he still has a lot of insight into the most basic basketball skills.

"Footwork, you have to pay attention to your footsteps, your steps must be steady, starting with your feet, legs, body, hands, to maintain a stable paradigm, which is the key to maintaining a streak of goals. Stand in the position you are most comfortable in, then memorize the position, and always use this position to strike. ”

Calipari kept correcting Li Liang's posture, and the practice lasted for a whole afternoon, and it was another 1,000 shots.

There was a guy in the back with a whip in his back, and it felt different.

When Wei Dazhi was here, if he was tired, he could still be lazy, but Kalipari couldn't be here.

"Not bad boy, very good, your shooting talent is really good. If you want to get into the NBA, maybe Steve Novak will be your role model. Calipari commented on Li Liang after practicing with him for several hours.

Steve Novak, it seems that Li Liang does have a lot of similarities with him.

He is tall and lanky, has average physical fitness, and is mediocre in everything except for shooting.

Novak's proudest and fundamental foothold in the NBA is his three-point shot.

He shot 46 percent from three-point range in four years in the NCAA and has consistently shot above 40 percent since entering the NBA.

He shoots three-pointers in practice, throws 50 and makes 47 to 48 shots, and has a terrible shooting percentage.

Of course, at present, Li Liang's three-point level is far inferior to Novak.

Not to mention the ability to shoot at the open position, Novak's ability to shoot when he receives the ball, as well as his ability to get rid of defense in the NCAA and shoot under strong confrontation, are better than the current Li Liang.

Otherwise, Novak University would not have averaged 12 points per game in four years, while Li Liang would have averaged a water cooler per game in four years.

Novak's draft pick is 32nd overall in the second round, which should be said to be a very high position in the second round.

Li Liang wants to practice for a month, and with this system, he may not be able to be selected in this position.

But whatever, it's OK to be chosen.

Have faith in yourself!

And he was sure that he would be stronger than Novak, and much stronger!

"Wait and see, John, when the time comes, you'll see what a high-end version of Novak is... No, it doesn't seem to be much better than a high match..."
