Money can make the devil grind, and if he doesn't, it proves that the money is not enough, and this is an offer that Ganon Baker can't refuse. "Big Dream" Olajuwon opened a training camp to teach Big Dream after retiring, and the fee was only $40,000 a week.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Ganon Baker was a bull in the coaching world, more famous than "Big Dream", in addition to player training at all levels, he also opened a coach training program for a long time, trained and trained hundreds of excellent foreign trainers, and the money was doubled. But now, he is a well-known young trainer, and he has never had a big-name customer, how can he refuse Guo Xu's money offensive?

Guo Xu smiled and asked, "Can I practice today?" ”

"Don't you need to prepare beforehand?"

"No, you can practice all night at night." Guo Xu thought for a while and sighed: "Forget it, let's go tomorrow, I'll look for you early." ”

So, the two made an appointment to start training "tomorrow", and Guo Xu would have to repeat these conversations many times in the future.

As a sparring partner for Guo Xu, Ganon didn't feel tired, because he said that he was mainly practicing skills. He just wondered that Guo Xu's offer was too high, although he had heard that some stars spent money lavishly and acted recklessly, but Guo Xu was still a rookie with a base salary, even if he had advertising endorsement income, it was too generous.

It is impossible for a top trainer to get this kind of price, why does Guo Xu look very embarrassed?

Just because Guo Xu knows that it doesn't matter how rich he is in the time loop, he can't get this money. Of course he will be embarrassed and feel like a scam. But he can't help but deceive, this is the law of physics in the loop.

Ganon printed out a table for Guo Xu, on which are detailed training items, these things are saved in his computer, just need to adjust slightly according to the characteristics of the players, Guo Xu took it back and looked at it, and he will have a good preparation tomorrow.

His training is very targeted, guards, forwards, and centers have different training focuses, he has all studied, Guo Xu mainly practiced ball breakthrough and shooting skills.

One night later, it was January 3 again.

Guo Xu memorized Ganon's phone number, called him in the morning, easily negotiated it with money, and simply signed a trainer employment contract.

The two staggered the time with Kobe Bryant and Vanessa, and went to the Lakers training hall to practice together in the afternoon.

Guo Xu soon knew that he had found the right person, Ganon's cross-step change of direction was very good, and he could tell the technical characteristics of Iverson's change of direction, and deliberately carried out targeted training.

In Guo Xu's previous life, there were 35 kinds of actual combat feints in Ganon's teaching videos, and now he doesn't have so many tricks, but what he is best at imitating is Iverson, which makes it easier to attract customers.

Iverson has a special way of training dribbling when he trains - "rocket-style" dribbling! When doing this type of training, he will use his knee height as a boundary, allowing himself to dribble only below this height. It is precisely because of this dribbling method that the change of direction of the "answer" is faster, because he is used to lowering the center of gravity and shooting the ball quickly.

Ganon suggested that Guo Xu try to develop this habit as much as possible, give full play to his flexible advantages, and learn AI skills to control AI.

As a small player who is only 180cm tall, in order to avoid blocks in college, Canon's hard-working stunt is throwing, whether it is Parker's man-ball flying throw on the run, or Payton's high-hitting board throw, he can do it all.

Ganon told Guo Xu that the important thing in throwing is not the technique, but the feel, and it is necessary to insist on long-term practice, and it is impossible to practice the hit rate in the short term, which is a process of finding rhythm, finding distance, and deepening muscle memory.

Throwing technique is simply a sentence: "When facing a tall defender, take a low hand or a high hand to throw a relatively high arc upwards in the march to avoid blocking the goal." ”

This is much more difficult than shooting on the spot, and mastering the throw requires mastering the timing of the movement and shooting.

The two singled out for a while, only competing for skills Guo Xu was at a disadvantage, but his physical fitness was much better than Ganon, so Ganon couldn't prevent him, and he couldn't stop the shot if he had a little time.

No matter how popular the master is, this kind of thing is not all YY, if Ganon is a little faster and the confrontation is stronger, he can not only play in the NBA, but also become a lottery show.

It's a pity that although Ganon is trained diligently, God did not give him a good body, not even an advantage, and he made people.

Every time Guo Xu was passed, Ganon would show him the essentials of the technique in slow motion. Teach him how to break through, but also teach him how to defend, professional and very attentive.

"When you're holding the ball and ready to attack, your shoulders must be lower than the defender."

"When dribbling, the ball carrier should stay as far away from his body as possible and always not over his knees, keeping the center of gravity as low as possible."

"When doing a forward crossstep, dribble as fast and as wide as possible to shake the defender's center of gravity as much as possible."

Guo Xu practiced with feints under the guidance and kept the technical essentials in mind, and Canon's teaching was much more detailed than that of Cliffes. It is not difficult for him to make these moves, but it is a long-term process to be proficient step by step to exert his power.

After practicing for four hours, the two took a shower in the locker room of the Lakers training hall, and Guo Xu invited Ganon to dinner together.

This time it was Canon's turn, embarrassed. "After collecting the money, it's my responsibility to help you train, just forget about eating."

"You're welcome, I'll definitely be able to improve my strength if I practice like this, I have to thank you well. To save face, we have to cooperate for a long time in the future. ”

"Okay."

The two went to the Western restaurant Grand Cafe, and Ganon would definitely shirk if he chose a place that was too high-end, so Guo Xu chose a cafeteria. He has been with Austin and the food, drink, environment and service are impeccable.

While eating and talking about basketball, Ganon said: "Jason, I can help you perfect your technical essentials, but you and I can't test the power of these tricks, because I can't defend well, and I'm shorter than you." If you want to get stronger as quickly as possible, you need to find a high-level sparring partner, and you need to use these skills more when you train with the Lakers. ”

"Don't worry about this, I have a high-level sparring partner, the kind that makes the NBA All-Defensive Team." Guo Xu said with a smile.

"Are you talking about Kobe?" Ganon asked with a smile.

"It's him, but I plan to go to him after a while, and then I will find him to go head-to-head, and now going head-to-head with Kobe Bryant will affect confidence, I've done this kind of thing a few times, it's too unpleasant."

Guo Xu felt that this time loop was too convenient, he could find Kobe Bryant when he went to the arena in the morning, but Vanessa was also there, I don't know if Kobe Bryant is willing to go head-to-head, and being a light bulb will be hated by Kobe, right?

No, Kobe Bryant can't remember these things at all, what are you afraid of?

After the meal, Guo Xu drove Baker home before going back to the apartment to rest. Baker thanked him again and again, and regarded Guo Xu as a friend, he felt that Guo Xu was atmospheric and ambitious, obviously the biggest player he had ever sparred, and he had no frame at all.

Guo Xu didn't plan to talk to anyone about the time loop this time, he didn't know how to end it when he entered the loop last time, so he was a little panicked and asked someone to talk to. This time he has the bottom in his heart, and he doesn't need to spoil the future everywhere.

Baker is a good trainer, Guo Xu is willing to make this friend, and they will also have the opportunity to work together after the cycle is over.
