Chapter 199: Live Training (Medium)
Steve Nash was selected by the Phoenix Suns in the 15th round of the 1st round in the 1996 NBA Draft, joined the Dallas Mavericks in 1998, returned to the Suns in 2004, won the NBA regular season MVP for two consecutive years in 2005-06, and signed with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2012. He was named to the NBA All-Star Team 8 times, the NBA All-NBA Team 7 times (3 times in the first team, 2 times in the second team, 2 times in the third team), 5 times the NBA assist leader, 2 times the NBA All-Star Skills Challenge Championship, won the James Walt Kennedy Citizen Award in 2007, and was selected to the "5-4-9 Club" four times (50+% 2-point shooting; 40+% 3-pointer shooting; Free throw percentage 90+%).
Probably when many people hear about Nash, the first thing that comes to mind is his passing, after all, he is a five-time NBA assist king, and his career total assists rank third in history. Winning two consecutive regular season MVPs also shows that he is a good player. But his assists were fantastic and we all ignored his offense. In the '06-07 season, Nash shot higher than the league average from the field from any position. Not only shooting, but even scoring in the restricted area is easy, his ability to fight is not strong, the shooting rate of 65.7% under the basket is already very good, and even 14-16 in these two seasons Curry is not as wide as Nash's shooting hot zone. He should be the most underrated shooter in the NBA, and although his career-high scoring average is only 18.8 points per game, he is good for his breakaways, pull-up jumpers, 3-pointers and small hits. But he's more willing to give opportunities to others, so it's not that he's bad offensive, if he's selfish and shoots more, it's okay to average 20+ or 25+ points per game. At that time, he had four seasons in his career and entered the "180 Club", which means that he shot 40% from the field and 90% from the free throw line in four seasons. There are many players who have been able to enter this club in history, but he has only done it four times. If time could be repeated, many fans would remind him to shoot more, because his shooting is indeed very accurate...
In an interview, Durant told reporters: "Nash's training allowed me to maintain better balance and intensity when shooting. ”
Warriors assistant coach Willie Green revealed that Durant is one of the most enthusiastic players he has ever seen, and every time he stands on the training court, he is extremely focused, and Nash's training has made Durant's shooting more consistent.
As a result, in the 2016-2017 regular season, Durant shot a career-high 53.7% from the field. In the playoffs, he shot a horrific 55.6 percent from the field and 89.3 percent from the free throw line in the playoffs, both setting a new playoff career high.
With such a good teacher, Li Mojie naturally will not let go, and pulls Lao Ke to the gym every day to guide his training, and for Lao Ke, money is no longer an important thing for him now, his biggest goal now is naturally the O'Brien Cup that many NBA players dream of, and then Nash also has to think about the future, and it is too dreamy to retire and become the head coach of the NBA team immediately, so it is the best choice to become a shooting coach in the NBA team first, Didn't Hornacek, the league's best coach last year and head coach of the Suns, retire from the game and was hired by the Suns after he was hired by the Suns after he was a shooting coach for nine years?
"Wow, it's old man, Nash is going to the Suns!"
"What do you mean Nash is going to the Suns, Nash is obviously back to the Suns, okay?"
"Yes, yes, Nash has come here to guide Li Mojie's training for half a month, do you see, did you just come to Shark to watch the live broadcast?"
"I feel sorry for my Lake, Nash basically didn't come in handy after going to the Lakers, and then helped the Suns successfully get the top pick, and also got the Lakers' signing, the Suns management was too scheming."
"Hehe, this is scheming? Isn't this going back to the two of you? Archie Goodwin, who was in the same class as Li Mojie last year, gave you the lake with such a strong physical fitness, which can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, right? Otherwise, with Lao Qu's current state, he will definitely not be able to trade any good players. In 2012, the Lakers acquired Steve Nash in a sign-and-trade deal, and Nash will be offered a three-year, $25 million contract. In return, the Suns will receive $3 million in cash, as well as some future draft picks — first-round picks from the Lakers in 2013 and 2015, and second-round picks in 2013 and 2014, in which the Lakers also used an $8.9 million player trade exception (which the Lakers acquired from the Mavericks in the Lamar Odom trade).
When the barrage was flying all over the sky, Nash patted Li Mojie's shoulder and asked straight to the point: "Mojie, after this half a month of training, I already have a general understanding of your shooting." ”
Li Mojie has been practicing dribbling and layups before, and Tyrone Corbyn thinks that this kind of training is very helpful for soft wrist training, coupled with Li Mojie's free throw shooting rate is steadily improving, so Nash did not give Li Mojie special shooting training, just let him shoot more.
"First of all, you don't have a problem with your free throws, your free throw posture is very consistent, there is no problem with the shape of your hands and your power, I don't need to correct it, all you have to do is practice more, your biggest problem now is the height of your shot." Nash nodded first, then pointed out Lee's question.
"The shot point is too low?" After hearing Nash talk about his jumper problems, Li Mojie was a little surprised.
"Yes, I don't know if it's Mo Jie, you weren't tall when you were a child, but your height suddenly increased? Didn't you notice that your shooting is a lot like that of those short shooting guards, and you can see that Curry of the Warriors is very similar to your shooting position, with a low shot and a semi-bench press feel. Nash asked suspiciously, he felt that Li Mojie's shooting was the habit of shooting with low shots that he developed when he was too short when he was a child.
In fact, Curry's shooting point is low, but he shoots quickly, with his right foot slightly in front and slightly sideways, trying to exert force in his lower limbs, reducing his waist, his body is straight, his shoulders are open, and he has more control of body coordination, and his left hand is used to fix the ball and leave the ball at the moment of shooting. Because Curry used to push the shot, and then was changed by his father, so now there is still the shadow of the push, the spring shot, the force position is at the level of the big arm, the elbow and the shoulder, the lower arm should not be too much back, the ball is above the front of the head, it can be slightly to the right, and the arm swings sideways, but he shoots quickly, the right foot is slightly in front, slightly sideways, try to exert force on the lower limbs, reduce the waist, the body is straight, the shoulders are open, there is a greater control of body coordination, the arc of the ball is higher than the 45 degree angle, the angle into the frame is large, and it is easy to be hollow.
Li Mojie was silent for a moment and replied, "Well, yes, that's right, I used to be really not tall. "Can it be high? Li Mojie wore shoes only 180cm in his previous life, only 179cm, if his shot point is too high, he will definitely be the target of being frantically blocked on the court. For example, Curry, his shooting method is something that many protagonists have to learn, but many people have not considered Curry's hardware facilities, is Curry really suitable for every player to learn?
Curry is 188cm barefoot, 191ba tall in shoes, some guards are scorers and point guards, it's hard to say which position to play, and there are people who falsely report their height, such as Lillard, Irving and others are obviously not enough to be 191cm, but most of them are between 1.8m-1.95m, like very tall, Shane Livingston 2.01m, Tyrick Evans 1.98m, and the short Isaiah Thomas is 1.75m tall. According to NBA player data, the average height of the starting point guards of the 30 teams in the 2015-16 season was 1.8927 m., and Curry did not have any advantage in height. And Curry, who is 191cm tall in shoes, has an arm span of 1.93 meters, think about it, if Curry shoots high and is not fast, he has become the background board of other people's caps many times, how can there be today's Kuritian?
"So whose shooting should I learn?" Li Mojie asked curiously.
"Kobe, Maddie! The shooting point of the two of them is close to the flat frame, and according to your height and reach, this height is the most suitable for you, and I will teach you this seriously.
