Chapter 230: Advice from the Comer
Hoggist suddenly realized, nodded and said: "I don't have any intention of fighting for the ball, all I care about is winning, and in order to win, I can do what I can in any position!" ”
Marbury thought for a while and said: "Your personality is somewhat similar to the Spurs' Ke Huai, who works hard and pays quietly in the team, and doesn't mind his status. ”
"Kehuai and I are good brothers, but I'm much more lively than him!" Hoggist laughed.
"Speaking of which, your starting point is not low, you have a good relationship with Popovich, LeBron, Kowai, and now you have become teammates with Kobe, I think old fans will like you, right? Especially in your rookie season, if you can learn more from Kobe, I think you can inherit not only Kobe's skills, Kobe's mantle, but also Kobe's fans. This will definitely benefit you in the future. Marbury pointed.
Haughist didn't speak, but listened quietly to Marbury's account of his life experience with a serious face.
"Then there's the relationship, good management is hard to come by, and it's just as important to have a good relationship with management. Magic, who used to manage MLB's Los Angeles Dodgers, should be no worse experienced than Kupchak. Buzz is definitely much more reliable than Jim! I heard that you also have a good relationship with the new management of the Lakers? That's the best, stupid management is very scary, sometimes the team is sitting on a rocket ready to take off, but the management is brain-dead and can even make your rocket make a 180-degree turn and turn around and plant in the ground! ”
Knowing that Marbury was referring to his experience in New York, and that he was in no position to make any comments, Hoggist simply nodded.
"Anyway, you have to work hard! At the beginning of your career, you can catch up with a good boss, a good team, a good team, and I believe that your career will be more brilliant. I'll go to your game when I have the chance, I think my brother had a box in Staples back then! "Marbury reminisced about the past.
"I will work hard to borrow the words of the political commissar of the horse, but I have an impulsive idea now, you were also a heads-up master in Mingzhen Rock Park back then, I don't know if I can have this honor to fight with you?" Hogist asked tentatively.
"Haha, of course, don't look at our age, but our competitiveness is no worse than you young people! But after all, I'm old, not to mention that I've been training all morning, and my physical strength is limited, so let's play a few fewer balls, goals don't count points, and how about winning if you score three goals first? ”
"No problem, you have the final say! Out of respect for you, let's kick off first! Hoggist took out his mobile phone wallet and other belongings from his pocket and put them aside, rolled up his arms and sleeves and prepared to play.
When Hougist and Marbury had an in-depth exchange, Zhang Weiping and Yuan Chao, Zhang Jingdong, and Min Lulei also communicated privately on the side, which was relatively far away, and Hoggist and Marbury had been speaking English, although several of them could understand some English, but because they were not native speakers, they still needed to react in their heads, and because they were far away, they didn't notice what Hoggist and Marbury were talking about. The four of them suddenly saw that Hogist seemed to be about to make a move, and hurriedly came over to persuade him, "Why did you say this?" Is there some misunderstanding? ”
"That's it, isn't Marbury your idol?" Zhang Weiping also blocked the round in front of Haojist.
The other members of the Beijing team couldn't help laughing, and Zhai Xiaochuan explained for the two: "Lao Ma and Helian Wu cherish heroes and want to communicate on the court, not to fight!" ”
"Scared me, I'm in a hurry by you every day, my height is 1.8 meters, my blood pressure is 1.9 meters, sooner or later I have to be scared by you to burst my blood vessels! Lao Yuan Xiaozhang, both of you are here, I can reiterate again, I won't bring anything after bringing it this year, it hurts my body too much! Knowing that the two were just going to fight bulls, Min Lulei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Min Zhi is really as humorous as in the live broadcast!" Hogist complimented.
Min Lulei smiled and waved her hand, "Don't taunt me, you'll have to show mercy later!" We also pointed to the old horse to lead us to win three consecutive championships! ”
The two came to the court, and the players and staff surrounded the half, all wanting to see the exciting battle between the best guard in Chinese history and the first foreign player in the CBA. Marbury took the lead in attacking, and he also knew that Hoggist was equivalent to an upgraded version of Sun Yue in defense, and the young man was in better health, so he gave up the violent first step commonly used in the league and simply used the rhythm to pass, but took out the freestyle style of playing street ball in Rock Park that has not been used for many years to attack, after all, China also has a saying that there are no tricks to win, so Marbury believes that freewheeling behavior is unpredictable and difficult to defend.
The ball was dribbled out of the old horse's hands, flickering left and right, forward and backward, and the dribbling speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and the rhythm was very difficult to catch. Hoggist had never been exposed to such a fancy style of play before, so he didn't know where to focus his attention, Marbury's fake sudden action deceived his center of gravity, and at the same time, Marbury used an extremely weird starter to dribble the ball from the crotch to the other side, calmly letting go of himself who pounced, and easily burst into an empty basket on the inside.
A burst of warm applause erupted on the sidelines, and Hogist also said with admiration: "To be honest, this is my first time in contact with this kind of fancy dribbling, it's really amazing!" I want to learn too! ”
"Hey, this kind of showmanship is too physically demanding, and the actual combat effectiveness is too low in official competitions, and a player with outstanding physical talent like you doesn't need to be simple and complicated, and it is the most efficient way to play in one step to get past the opponent in actual combat! I really have no other way to deal with you, so I have to make this decision! "Everyone thought it was a great ball, but Marbury was clear.
Marbury continued to attack, and Hugist adjusted his defensive strategy after listening to Marbury's words, relying on his height and long arms to defend a large area, pushing away a step away for Marbury to make moves, and he waited for the opportunity to move, and then attacked. Seeing that Hougist changed his defensive strategy, Marbury showed a satisfied smile, this kid has a really good understanding, he can gain something by just saying it once, and he will learn from Kobe Bryant in the future, and the future is limitless!
But now is not the time for Marbury to relax, and he has to score two more goals! Seeing that his fancy dribbling was out of effect, the old horse played the rhythm again, accelerating one or two steps to a stop, and then accelerating to the basket to break through after two steps did not work, but Hoggist's distance control was always very good, so that he could neither calmly shoot the basket, nor pass Hoggist to enter the inside.
Marbury had to make a desperate bet, breaking diagonally from the top of the arc to the right elbow, two steps later, a pull ball changed to a sharp stop, and then an acceleration start, tearing up a relatively large shooting space, jumping up and shooting quickly to score the second goal.
There was thunderous applause on the sidelines again, they may not encounter such a wonderful duel in their lifetime when they play CBA, but the large fancy dribble just now and the forced start and stop of the second ball are really physically exhausting, and there are already fine beads of sweat on the old horse's head. However, he said that he was old, but he never accepted the old, and went directly back to the top of the arc to play the third ball.
I don't know when the last time Hoggist was scored two goals in a row, but he learned to defend from Leonard, and it would be a shame if he couldn't defend a ball! Although Hougist said that Marbury was his idol before, he felt in his heart that Marbury was already in his forties, and as the so-called back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, could he not beat a middle-aged man whose body had begun to decline? But now it seems that he is still too arrogant, Marbury's physical strength is indeed no longer guaranteed to play at an efficient level throughout the game, but if he tries his best to play three balls, he is still very threatening!
Hougist finally put 100% attention into the defense, grabbed the flaw in Marbury's dribble and reached out to steal, but he didn't expect that this was still a flaw in Marbury's sale, and this save allowed Marbury to grab half of the body. However, Hougist was mentally prepared this time, and quickly chased back after losing position, covering Marbury's layup from behind.
"Alas, I'm getting old, this old arm and leg can't run anymore, I think I pulled up this ball and dunked it back then!" Marbury laughed to himself to ease the embarrassment.
Hoggist said in his heart that what you said is true, but if you say it, I will win next, and you will become a victory, right? Why does Commissar Ma also have such a chicken thief side? But even if you win and don't show your face, it's better than losing, so I can fight how I want, and I can't waver. So Hoggist held the ball at the top of the arc and lowered the center of gravity, accelerated the breakthrough with a short body, and used his own housekeeping skills as soon as he came up, stopping and retreating to jump.
With Marbury's height, even if he is 20 years younger, he can't prevent Hougist's move. At Hoggist's height, in the face of a defender of regular size, the success rate of step-back jumpers has completely depended on his own hand. Of course, Hoggist's hand has always been very good, and he naturally hit the basket with ease. The audience on the sidelines looked at the effort of Marbury's attack just now, compared with the leisurely stroll of Horgist's ball, and then they knew how big the gap was with the NBA, and everyone did not hesitate to send applause and cheers.
Marbury knew that if he didn't stick to Hougist to interfere with his lower limbs, there was no way to defend him from shooting, and the second ball was desperate to stick to Hougist on the three-point line, and Hougist had to use his physical advantage to push Marbury to the basket, although Marbury's physical strength was stronger than most of the local interior lines in the league, but it was still much weaker than Hougist, and he was pushed into the three-second zone by Hougistt in two hits.
Hougist was a little reluctant to go after a few strokes, and he was also worried that he would hurt Marbury, so he turned his back to collect the ball and shook his shoulder, his lower limbs did not move, and his upper body pretended to turn to the left side, and then regardless of whether Marbury was fooled or not, he directly twisted his waist and forcibly turned to the right side and threw a backward jumper, and threw a mid-range shot with his left hand, which was also an easy hit.
"I didn't expect you to be able to shoot with your left hand! Why haven't you used it in this Asian Championship? Marbury asked, surprised.
"The opponents in the Asian Championships are like elementary school students, and no one can force my left hand at all!" Hoggist was also very skillful in his speech, implicitly touting Marbury's defense.
The onlookers nodded, Lao Ma's defense was really good, and even an inexplicable player like Haugist was forced out of his trick by him! It seems that the old horse is really old and strong!
In the third game, Hougist also wanted to do the same, and the experienced Marbury withdrew the stool when Hougist made the second shot, but Hougist stumbled and did not drop the ball, but forced the ball to use the first two steps of the layup to stabilize his body, and jumped up in the three-second zone and licked the basket with his long arm across Marbury to score.
The 3:2 reversal won, and the two contributed 5 rounds of exciting and suffocating offensive and defensive battles for everyone. Basketball can still be played like this, and everyone in the Beijing team seems to have been opened to a new world and have a new understanding of basketball.
Min Lulei patted Zhai Xiaochuan beside her, "Practice hard, you can also play like Helian Wu!" ”
"Min pointed out that don't be funny, I can't catch up with Helian Wu's dribbling level until I'm 40 years old! The old horse couldn't pit him when he withdrew the stool, and I couldn't do it so steadily without anyone interfering! Zhai Xiaochuan shook his head and denied Min Lulei's point of view.
"Don't be presumptuous! Be confident, coupled with hard work, you can, next season I will give you more balls to let you hold the ball to attack, and the talent who can hold the ball is a good striker! "Min Lulei is not discussing with Zhai Xiaochuan, he has already made up his mind.
At the end of the visit, I learned a lot of life experience from Marbury, Hoggist can be said to have benefited a lot today, and in the evening Hoggist came to Sanlitun Deyun Club in a low-key manner to listen to cross talk, although Guo Yu and the two no longer speak cross talk in the small theater, but they caught up with Guo Degang's son Guo Qilin's performance, and the business level of the young Guo Ye is also good, at least let Hogist feel satisfied when he went home.
After more than a week of rest, Hoggist regained his strength and recuperated his spirit, and on October 12, Hoggist went to the Regent Hotel to meet the Lakers who arrived in China.
"This, this, this...... Old Coach K? How did you come to China with them? Hougist gave a big hug and asked in surprise.
"This is my third surprise for you." The magician smiled on the side and said, "The number one hero who won the top pick, the master of the court, Byron, has retired and has now become the assistant manager of the team, and Mr. Shashewski has become the head coach of our Lakers!" ”
"What! Didn't Lao K claim that he would never coach an NBA team? Hougist asked, surprised.
"I don't want to leave such a huge regret in my life that I haven't coached you, but I can't quit the U.S. men's basketball team and directly join the Chinese men's basketball team as a coach, plus the Magic's hard pleading, so I can only make this decision." Old K explained on the side.
