Chapter 143: The Warmth of Crossing the Sea
In the following period, the Spurs found that Deng Hongfei's mood did not seem to be very high.
Fortunately, the latter's mood off the field did not affect the game.
As soon as he stepped onto the pitch, he was fully engaged.
Such a trait is seen by some veteran players and secretly appreciated.
When I first knew that Deng Hongfei was just an undrafted player, there was still a lot of prejudice and contempt in the team.
But then with the bright performance in the limited playing time, as well as the diligent attitude in training.
A lot of vision has gradually changed.
Respect is earned by action.
As the regular season time approached, Deng Hongfei took the initiative to increase the amount of training for himself.
3,000 shots a day made his muscle memory stronger.
It's just about the stability of muscle memory, and the king of training system can't directly feedback it.
However, it can cost training points to query.
Many not-so-conventional attributes can be queried through the King of Training system.
However, training points are precious, and they must not be wasted.
He doesn't have a stat above 90 yet, and once the regular season starts, he won't have such a systematic time to practice and improve.
The speed of attribute enhancement is bound to be greatly reduced, and there is no way to compare it with the offseason.
So every second counts.
——
"So you and Shen Yan are over?"
One night on a day off, in a café.
Deng Hongfei and Liu Min sat opposite each other.
The latter felt the abnormality of the former's mental state and took the initiative to ask, only then did he learn that the two of them had such a big quarrel.
"I don't know yet, I just want to give two people a space and figure something out."
Deng Hongfei shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of coffee casually, "It's you, Sister Min, how long are you going to stay in the United States?" ”
"I'll probably have to go back in a while." Liu Min stroked her hair gently, "I have visited many schools in the United States during this time, I have seen a lot, and I have felt a lot, and I found that the United States has a fairly sound and complete selection system from elementary school to high school and then to NCAA. ”
"They don't have the same philosophy as China."
"The U.S. side emphasizes improving the level in actual combat, advocating creativity and on-the-spot adaptability, while China is more inclined to tactical organization and discipline and basic subject practice."
"It's a pity that over the years, it seems to have fallen into a misunderstanding." Deng Hongfei shook his head suddenly, "I'm not sure if it's because of blindly learning American-style training, and it has become a bit of a sacrifice, resulting in an effect similar to that of Handan toddlers." ”
"In the past, the Chinese players had very good basic skills, but I watched the video of the Asian Championships in Manila some time ago and found that the free throw shooting rate was quite unstable."
"There are also a lot of bad habits in the game, such as the defender facing the bag, the first thing that comes to mind is to control the mistake, and then the dead ball looks for a pass."
"This kind of phenomenon is a sign of not being confident in your basic skills, and you see a lot of good defenders in the NBA, Chris Paul, Stephen Curry, they don't die easily, they will look for opportunities in constant movement."
"This is a very strange phenomenon, with the progress of the times, we have also begun to try to learn from each other's strengths, but instead we have lost our original strengths, and the basic skills have become a problem."
Deng Hongfei is willing to share his views on basketball with Liu Min, who he believes has some unusual qualities in this regard.
The latter agreed, "You said that these problems do exist, so I want to immediately compile the harvest of this trip to the United States into a complete content and post it on the Internet, so that more people can see what we can improve now." ”
"Yes, Sister Min, China needs media people like you."
Deng Hongfei said very seriously.
"Come on, don't hurt me, you are now the object of all the attention of the entire domestic basketball world, the only Chinese player who is fighting in the NBA."
Liu Min waved his hand and changed his words, "Let's talk about it, what are the prospects for the new season." ”
Deng Hongfei subconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, "Is this a question to me as a reporter?" ”
"It's kind of a question between friends."
Liu Min was noncommittal.
"Whew~ Okay."
Deng Hongfei shrugged his shoulders and exhaled a long breath, "To be honest, the intensity of the NBA's confrontation is far beyond my imagination, sometimes I see it on TV that the offensive and defensive rhythm is quite slow, and the shooting space is quite large, but only when you are in it can you understand the high intensity that is different from any other league." ”
"I still need to adapt and improve."
"As for what it can become, I can't say."
Liu Min nodded, "Okay, I wish you all the best of luck, as a little reporter who has followed you all the way, I sincerely wish you a smooth NBA journey." ”
"Don't worry, I'm confident in my own abilities."
"Well, I have faith in you too."
Liu Min clenched his fists and encouraged.
Suddenly remembering something, he took out his bag, unzipped it, and took out a letter from it.
"Come, look, what is this?"
Liu Min smiled mysteriously.
Deng Hongfei was stunned, grabbed his hand and carefully unsealed it, took out the letterhead paper inside and unfolded it.
What catches your eye is lines of handwriting with different styles.
[Deng Hongfei, I wish you a good performance in the NBA, I have watched almost every summer league, now I am your die-hard fan, I also want to work hard, and strive to compete side by side with you in international competitions in the future] - Zhang Tong
[Brother Fei, you are too awesome, perform well in the new season, our dorm is looking at you, by the way, remember to help one of us ask for a GDP signature, we can send a circle of friends to brag and show off, by the way, yours can't be less] - Qiu Feng
[I remember that the two of us have talked about the topic of dreams a few times, and now we are both on the journey of dreams, let's work together] - Shen Zheng
[Hi, Brother Fei, Zheng Ye responded to your original suggestion and is now participating in China's Good Singing, so he was not able to join our joint blessing, but I believe that his heart will definitely be tied to us at any time, watching every game you play, and cheering for every goal you score] - Wang Mu
Subsequently, there are also the team's former teammates, Feng Xiujie, Jiang Haoran, and Wu Junhao.
The dense words carried the thick warmth of the distant motherland, and converged into a torrent into Deng Hongfei's heart.
He couldn't help but purse the corners of his mouth and overflow with a shallow smile.
At the end, it was a line of beautiful handwriting that made people shine -
[Deng Hongfei, they have finished speaking, I really don't know what to say, think about it, I can only tell you very seriously, I hope that after every game, your expression can be like this O(∩_∩)O, not such a >_<] - Shu Xin
Cute emojis finish with slightly playful handwriting.
Deng Hongfei raised his head, stared at Liu Min quietly for a while, and asked with a smile, "Sister Min, when was this letter written?" ”
"Haha, I brought it with me when I first came to the United States, and I haven't given it to you."
Liu Min pursed his lips, and the concave dimples contained a trace of imperceptible cunning.
"Liar."
Deng Hongfei saw through it at a glance and asked, "When you first arrived in the United States, I hadn't even started the draft, how did they see my summer league?" ”
"Aha?"
Liu Min was suddenly a little embarrassed, and then waved his hand in a broken jar, "Don't ask, I won't say, just keep it." ”
After speaking, he picked up the coffee cup and tilted it slightly, it seemed that he was drinking coffee, but in fact, he happened to cover his eyes to avoid direct contact with Deng Hongfei's eyes.
She hesitated, slightly tangled.
But remembering the entrustment when Shu Xin handed her the letter by hand, she still chose to respect the latter's wishes, and forcibly pressed down the feeling of wanting to vomit to Deng Hongfei......
