Chapter 54: Jordan's Suggestion
Who is Michael Jordan?
If you ask such a question now, you will definitely be ridiculed as ignorant.
Roy used to be such an unusual person, before he got into basketball, he didn't know anything but that Jordan played basketball.
For this reason, he later made up for Jordan's relevant knowledge.
Michael Jordan, the world's recognized god of basketball.
He has received numerous honors, including 6 NBA championships, 6 Finals MVP, 5 regular season MVPs, 14 NBA All-Star selections, 10 NBA All-Star selections, and 9 NBA All-Defensive Team selections.
What Hall of Fame, Top 50 Stars, Scoring Champions, All-Stars, MVPs, Championships, Olympic Champions, Best Rookies, Best Defensive Players, and the honors that others have pursued all their lives are trivial to Jordan, and he has already won the award with a soft hand.
The only words that can describe him are God, a great man, and a god of basketball.
And what is Jordan like in reality?
If Roy had been asked, he would have answered: old kids.
"Hey Roy, you're back again, why didn't you say goodbye last time?" Seeing Roy's visit, Jordan greeted him very warmly.
"I don't know how to explain it, it's a crash anyway......" Roy couldn't explain, he couldn't say that he was sick.
"I haven't seen you these days, you must have grown a lot, do you want to come and practice?"
Mr. Qiao, who is in his 50s, immediately became interested when he talked about basketball, he felt as if he had never grown old, whether it was his son or grandchildren standing in front of him, he was interested in having two tricks with them.
Roy asked the ball god with his eyes.
The ball god's answer was, "But it's okay to play, Master Qiao is in good health." ”
As a result, Roy had the opportunity to meet the basketball god one-on-one.
"You know, ten years ago, when Rose was your age, he played one-on-one with me, but guess what?"
Jordan dribbles the ball leisurely while telling Roy stories of the past.
"He was beaten by me, I don't know, I can beat you a young man even ten years old."
Before Jordan could finish speaking, he was already jumping in the air, and Roy will catch up with his speed and jump to block with all his might.
No, Roy, who was jumping in the air, suddenly found that Jordan's body was moving backwards, and the fat Joe gang leader made a standard step-back jumper, and Roy's block immediately became an ornament.
Without waiting for the ball to go into the basket, Jordan raised his fist high in celebration, and this kind of shooting is basically eight or nine without leaving ten.
Fat body, half a hundred years old, that's it, Qiao gang leader still abused Roy with blood.
If Jordan before the age of 30 relied on his body and courageous momentum, then after the age of 30, he relied on his perfect skills and super psychological quality.
After a few exchanges, Jordan clearly felt Roy's progress.
"The basic skills are very stable, it seems that the serious old man (Abdul-Jabbar) has trained you well." After the confrontation, Jordan began to seriously help Roy analyze, "However, if it is really time for the game, you are still a lot worse." ”
Jordan is Jordan in the end, and after only ten rounds with Roy, he found out what Roy's problem was.
First of all, Roy's fundamentals are solid, but his offensive style is very simple, and all offensive methods are almost limited to breakthrough layups and dry pull-up shots, relying on his excellent physical condition. These two moves are indeed quite effective, but if they face an opponent of the same level like Leng Yihan, they will inevitably lose their effect.
Secondly, Roy's style of play lacks deceptiveness, to put it bluntly, Roy plays basketball quite sincerely, with a clear board and an orderly approach, so that others can easily guess his intentions. You must know that basketball is not only a place to fight skills, but also a place to fight brains, and cunning is a necessary skill on the court.
In the end, it is Jordan who summed up the most important point, Roy lacks a special skill, for any star, it is very necessary to practice a unique skill, just like Jordan's backward jumper, Abdul-Jabbar's hook hand, Curry's three points, Olajuwon's dream footsteps, this kind of nirvana, not only can give the opponent a heavy blow to the psychology, but also can decide the outcome of the game at a critical moment.
Therefore, for Roy's special training, Jordan's advice is to focus on honing an exclusive skill.
From those forty abilities, find one or two key exercises to cultivate Roy's unique skills.
It's a big project, it's really a big project, but fortunately time stands still now, otherwise Roy would really have to scratch his scalp.
"Master Qiao, if you are facing a team with first-class internal and external strength, extremely skillful cooperation, and a core leader with strong physical fitness and very comprehensive skills, how will you crack it?"
"Hahaha, you ask me? If it were me, there would be a hundred ways to win. Hearing this, Jordan was amused.
"I don't want a hundred methods, I only need one." Roy is serious.
Jordan put away his smile, now is the time for the master to teach the disciple.
"Tell me about your best and most consistent attack."
"Jump shot." Roy didn't think about it, yes, if he really wanted to find a basketball skill that he would never forget, it had to be the jump shot, and in those two weeks, he had been practicing the jump shot even in his dreams.
"Hmm." Jordan pondered for a moment, "Then let's take this jumper to the extreme." ”
Extreme? Roy was stunned, wouldn't it be to practice the jump shot on the spot again, in Abdul-Jabbar, he had already given the jump shot to practice spitting, Roy can now not only shoot with his left hand, but sometimes even shoot with his right hand.
Of course, Roy's embarrassed eyes can't escape the eyes of Joe's gang leader, he is not Abdul-Jabbar, and he will only have an effect through the accumulation of quantity.
Jordan's training requires more brains.
His custom training for Roy was a "jump shot in interference."
What is a Jump Shot in Interference? Jordan did a demonstration in which he had Roy cover his face with his hands and then shoot with his eyes out of sight.
Hand up the ball and hit it easily.
"This is indirect interference, and now you use your body to push me."
Jordan's second throw jumped, Roy was instructed to head towards his body, and Jordan, who was slightly off balance, made an adjustment in the air and sent the ball into the net again.
"This is direct interference, and this kind of ball is definitely '2+1' in the game." When it comes to Jordan's best way of scoring, he can't help but be a little proud, "On the basketball court, the most difficult thing to defend is not to break through to the basket or pull out on the spot, the most unpredictable thing is the shooting on the run, and this kind of shooting is often greatly disturbed, if you can practice this technique to the extreme, then you can be invincible." ”
