Chris Paul and Yang Yiming practiced their three-pointers on the morning after G1.

After two rounds, the two sides battled to 101-91, and the Paul team took the lead.

Just as it was Paul's turn and Yang Yiming to make their final round of shooting, James Harden broke in. He made a request to both sides, to shoot the last 100 balls, all on the run!

And the points of each shot are random!

I can't help but say that the last 100 three-point shooting games that count as two points for one goal begins, and this begins!

1/

Yang Yiming did this, and the team boss James Harden passed the ball to him; On the other end of the court, Derrick Rose, who didn't play in the three-point game, was responsible for passing the ball to Paul. The rest of his teammates, Paul's PJ Tucker and Ariza, plus Gordon and Green of Yang's team, gathered around their baskets to help pick up baskets that were off or off the rails.

All of these preparations, as Harden said, are for the purpose of "simulating actual combat" to ensure that the shooter is constantly running, receiving, shooting, and running again!

Harden's passing Yang Yiming had already been taught when he demonstrated just now, flat and urgent, chasing straight after him, completely imitating the rhythm of the game. Not only that, but Harden will occasionally change his tricks, such as hitting the ground, back, loafing, and jumping and throwing the ball, which really encompasses all the situations that can occur in the game. In this regard, "Rose" Rose's passing is much more regular, basically pushing it out to Paul with both hands on his chest, but he glimpsed various changes in Harden on the other end, and slowly added them to his own pass. Later, in addition to Paul and Yang Yiming's shooting, it also evolved into a fancy passing competition between the two guards, which was very good-looking.

However, Yang Yiming does not have the heart to enjoy these, on the one hand, this kind of training method of running and shooting has extremely high requirements for concentration, and Harden's shouting number often does not follow common sense, shouting the 1 representing the left bottom corner, and immediately connects to the 5 in the right bottom corner, and when Yang Yiming just shot and was about to take a break, he will not hesitate to call back to the No. 1 shooting point, Yang Yiming has to do a switchback run along the bottom line and run back.

On the other hand, his team is still 10 three-pointers behind, and even if the final round is more difficult, one goal counts as two points, which means that in theory, Yang Yiming only needs to make 5 more goals than Paul to equalize the score, but he still needs to give his full attention!

In the first 20 goals, Yang Yiming and Paul almost went hand in hand, Yang Yiming scored 11 goals and Paul scored 10 goals.

In the next 40 goals, Yang Yiming continued to work hard, and he led Paul's 18 with 20 shots. In terms of the total score, Yang Yiming was 31-28, and he only needed 2 more goals to bring the two teams back to the same running line.

In the last 40 balls, Yang Yiming threw more and more seriously. The counting and cheering of his teammates made him feel that the hope of overtaking was just around the corner. He walked more often and seemed to gradually adapt to Harden's passing rhythm. Run, catch, shot, run. Yang Yiming's three-point shooting posture is one between Green's pull-up jumper and PJ-Tucker's barely jumping tiptoe shot. He jumps on the spot, but he will limit the strength of the elevation and use more energy to control the posture of the whole body: his legs determine the time and direction of the jump, and keep it straight up and down as much as possible; The core strength muscles of the waist and abdomen control the posture of the whole body in the air and avoid twisting; The left and right arms are locked to fix the shooting position, and when the muscles of the whole body are tense, use the strength of the wrist to throw the basketball out gently; Once the ball is out of your hand, you can complete a coherent action: your fingers track the direction of the basketball parabola, your knees slightly bent to withstand the impact when you land, and keep an eye on Harden's next run!

This series of actions, when Yang Yiming threw about 80 goals, were completed extremely smoothly. To be honest, from the perspective of shooting posture alone, he is even closer to a pure shooter than Paul, which has to be attributed to Yang Yiming's more than 10 years of professional training in China and his tireless repeated polishing of the basic skills of shooting. However, in China, there has never been such an intense amount of training!

Domestic shooting training is usually a simple fixed-point practice, which is closer to the slow shooting completed by Tucker and Gordon in the second round. This has a lot to do with the concept of training in the basketball circles of China and the United States: in China, the training intensity is generally low, and most of them are to explain tactics, strengthen techniques, and adjust the state for actual combat; In professional basketball in the United States, I believe that only when training is more intense than actual combat, it is possible to exert corresponding combat effectiveness in actual combat!

And after Yang Yiming threw 80 balls, he felt that he was dragged down by this kind of unsuitable high-intensity training!

At this moment, he used every muscle of his body to truly realize that he had seen those comments on the Internet criticizing Kobe Bryant as the Iron King, and they were all standing and talking without backache!

To become the king of iron, the premise of 30 or even 40 shots in a game is that you must have enough physical strength to ensure the number of shots in a fierce competition!

Steps, wrists, core, breathing, and even concentration all need to be able to keep up. But Yang Yiming obviously felt that he was now more than enough but not enough!

At 80 goals, he also led Paul 39-38. But in the last 20 balls, Yang Yiming, who was getting more and more tired of throwing, completely lost the front sights. Running to the position, I had no strength in my body, and after hurriedly completing the shot and throwing the ball, I ran to the next point overwhelmed...

In this way, he only made 4 of his last 20 goals, a 20% shooting rate. On the other hand, Paul, although his posture is not necessarily so standard, and he is suspected of relying on absorbing the waist and abdomen and hips to find recoil, but obviously this labor-saving shooting posture is more suitable for high-intensity training. Paul scored 11 of his last 20 goals, 55% from the field, and took the game away in waves!

The Paul team won 201 than Yang Yiming's team 175, with a big score!

2/

As a direct result of this high-intensity three-point shooting drill, in the G2 game of the playoffs, although the Timberwolves started the first quarter strongly, leading the score 23-18. But as long as the Rockets are not burdened by their own shooting percentage, once the outside line is opened in the second quarter, they can send a single quarter 37-17 and win the game in one fell swoop!

Waves of terrifying rockets!

This time it's the credit of the entire Rockets outside line!

Even though the team's boss Harden was in a slump, shooting 0-of-9 from three-point range, shooting only 11% from the field and scoring an incredible 12 points from the field, his spur on practice worked:

Ariza shot 3-of-10, Tucker shot 2-of-5, Paul shot 3-of-5, Gordon shot 2-of-10, Green shot 5-of-12 and Yang Yiming shot 1-of-2.

The Rockets' three-point shooters combined to shoot 16-of-44 (excluding Harden) with a 36.3% shooting rate, and used this to complete the overwhelming victory over the Timberwolves by 20 points!

Yang Yiming himself, his playoff debut report card is 9 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. After crazy practice, he can deliver 13 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 1 steal in the second game of the series, which is better than the first game.

However, just when everyone, including Yu Xiaochun, was happy about the victory of the rocket and Yang Yiming's progress, another thing also grabbed his attention:

Before the Rockets game started, a battle between the Jazz and the Thunder was arranged. Donovan Mitchell, who was also rumored to have a left foot contusion 24 hours ago and is likely to not be able to play in G2, not only ended up on the court, but also scored a game-high 28 points, plus 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block. How the hell did he do it?!

Excluding the Jazz intelligence warfare, this is still a magical recovery speed, and an even more magical crazy performance!

Mitchell's personal explosion in the fourth quarter beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, which has a big three!

Yu Xiaochun couldn't help but think of the situation when he saw Nicholas at the NASA base. It can only be him!
