Chapter 35: Dreams
The red sun was scorching, and everything was hot under the June sun. And the people under the sun also seem to be a little listless.
Li Qiang was sweating and playing on the open-air court outside the gymnasium. It's also one of the ways he trains himself. After all, one cannot be a flower in a greenhouse. Always comfortable nesting in the air-conditioned stadium and playing ball, people are going to be lazy. And only under the sun did Li Qiang regain the feeling of struggle at the grassroots back then.
Today's Li Qiang is also famous. When I was playing, some people I didn't know would often come up and say that I wanted to fight with me. Once or twice there is interest, dozens of times it will be a little troublesome.
Although Li Qiang is still under the sun today, he seems to be affected by the surrounding scenery and has become a little listless. Lack of motivation is one of Li Qiang's major problems at present.
Another championship? It's not difficult. Today's Li Qiang already has an altitude of 1.99 meters and a weight of 104 kilograms, and his peak data of bench press has reached 190 kilograms of the little emperor James, who can almost push twice his weight, and can completely crush all domestic players in terms of size and strength alone. And next year's Li Qiang will fundamentally solve the problem of physical strength after he begins to practice the Fu Refining Technique, so there will be no game that he can't play, he can burst and shoot, he can steal, he can break and defend, and he will dominate the world with three points inside and outside the penalty area, and the whole game. Is there any point in bullying a group of children like this (although Li Qiang himself is also a child)?
Into the CBA? Wake up, you're still a high school student, and you're not old yet. After Yao Ming retired from the CBA, Li Qiang believes that there is no one who can compete with him. Li Qiang very much wants to join the CBA league, kill all the star players in China, and at the same time strive to help his team win a CBA championship.
Thinking of this, Li Qiang's blood boiled, it was a grand event that 1.35 billion people across the country would pay attention to! And this goal is very difficult for Li Qiang, because even if Li Qiang is strong, it is impossible to crush two or three people at the same time like in the high school league, and the championship requires teamwork, cooperation between himself and real professional players, and complete a challenging goal together!
can think that he still has to stay in a group of high school students for two years to win two championships that no one pays attention to because of the rigid regulations in China, Li Qiang couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.
NBA? By the way, across the ocean, a sacred kingdom is still waiting for me to conquer! There are the strongest stars in the world, there are the fiercest rivalries in the world, there are the strongest teams in the world. It was a land of dreams. As long as you have a dream, you can succeed with your efforts!
As soon as he thought of this, Li Qiang couldn't help but feel hot all over his body. This is what he has always dreamed of! Isn't all his preparation, all the Yijin Jing, the cultivation of ball skills, and the hard work of learning English for two years just for this? What should I do if I am under age? It doesn't matter, in the United States, anything is possible, Li Qiang doesn't want to fake his age to leave evidence that will be criticized in the future, and he doesn't want to make the world's greatest star of all time have a disgraceful history, so he should submit a special petition.
When you have an idea, you have to turn it into action, which is Li Qiang's motto. Li Qiang immediately called his provincial team coach Sun Fangyi to discuss the feasibility of this plan.
Unexpectedly, Lao Sun poured a bucket of cold water on Li Qiang.
"Well, I guess you'll have to give it a try. After all, you're still too young. There are only a handful of people in history who have joined the NBA at the age of 16. Especially in recent years, since the rule came out, there have been basically no high school players. But with your good performance, there is hope. The way the draft is unlikely, so I think you might as well sign up for an international basketball youth training camp and then use your performance to conquer the owners of each team when you arrive in the United States. I know that this was the case when Yao Ming went to the United States for the first time, and he was a year older than you at the time. It seems that Nike has been doing this training camp recently, seven or eight or two months, I will help you check the information, if you can, sign up. ”
Within a few days, the itinerary was finalized. Li Qiang successfully signed up for the Nike International Basketball Youth Training Camp and booked a plane ticket. The visa came down quickly. Li Qiang is also ready to go to the United States, and the English teacher specially invited by Li Qiang's parents for him concentrated on oral English for a period of time, and also found a training venue as standard as the NBA basketball court for adaptive training. After all, there is still a certain difference between the NBA venue and the CBA. Especially the distance of the three-point line, even if the CBA has pulled the three-point line away by half a meter in the past two years, the distance between the three-point line and the bottom of the basket is only 6.75 meters. The NBA arena is 7.24 meters away, which is half a meter more. It's no wonder that there aren't many three-point shooters in the NBA, and the shooting percentage is not high. This poses a huge challenge to Li Qiang's signature three-point back. However, Li Qiang also often trains ultra-long back-to-back three-point and ultra-long three-point, which has a certain foundation, and it is not very good to increase the drop in the shooting rate of this half meter. And Li Qiang firmly believes that with the help of Yi Jin Jing, all of this is not a problem, as long as he can overcome his potential demons on the way of cultivation, Li Qiang believes that he will eventually become the greatest three-point shooter in NBA history, and the greatest star.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, blowing Li Qiang to the east coast of the Pacific Ocean.
