Chapter Eighty-Seven: Double Happiness Comes to the Door
"Empty dunk...... Are there any technical essentials to learn? ”
Sacramento, October 24, 2010. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Kings Team Center.
"Isn't it just jumping up to catch the ball and putting it in??"
Tyrek Evans stood next to Cousins, basketball in hand, and looked at the basket with a puzzled expression.
"Eh, for us, dunking is like instinct, of course there is nothing to learn, but for my cousin it is different!"
Cousins also had the ball in his hand, and it was the time for the team to warm up, and coach Westphaal was not far away to open a small stove for a small group of players. The main players of the team were given a rare relaxation time, and they were free to warm up and practice according to their own ideas.
But the reason why the NBA league has developed to the point where it is today has a deep relationship with its strict internal Taoist system. Even if the players are self-warm-up training, there are also team trainers, nutritionists, and physical trainers on the side, teaching and observing all the way, so as not to make inappropriate actions and bring counter-effects.
Evans and Cousins are both players who have experienced college league experience, and Evans has been in the league for a season, so he knows the essentials of training by heart, and basically does not need to be taught by trainers. At this moment, the trainer was running with Gu Yu all over the court, grabbing Gu Yu and asking him to stretch and warm up first, and then carry out shooting training.
"I've done it in the morning, idiot! Don't chase me!! ”
Gu Yu shouted "run", while still holding a basketball in his hand, he ran to this half court and shot a basket with his hand, then quickly walked to the basket to pick up the ball, and evaded the trainer's "chase" and ran to the other half.
"What time is it? When do you do stretching? Don't lie to anyone! Come over and stretch me!! ”
Why would the Kings trainers give up? Although the management said that Gu Yu is currently staying in the team, the main role is to attract box office and ratings, but every player is the wealth of the team, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.
"Damn, Lao Tzu will come to the training ground at four o'clock, okay! Don't believe you ask the doorman to go!! ”
With a "bang", Gu Yu hit another emergency stop shot, continued to run in small steps to grab the ball, and went to the other half.
"Hmmm......"
Not far away, Westphall heard the crisp sound of the net, looked up, carefully observed Gu Yu's running posture and shooting movements, and nodded slightly.
Much progress has been made.
As a former scoring master, Westphall knew very well that Gu Yu's physical talent was quite mediocre, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was even bad. In the NBA, to become a real scoring maniac, only skill is definitely not enough, and from this point of view, Gu Yu has no possibility of becoming a scoring maniac at all.
But perhaps after training with the team for a few months, coupled with the baptism of the game, Gu Yu's physical condition seems to have improved. Whether it is strength or bounce, or reaction speed and dribbling level, it has been greatly improved.
Of course, from the NBA level, Gu Yu's physical condition is still terrible, but it is much better than when he first came to the team.
This kid...... I put in a lot of hard work in private!
Westphal admired Gu Yu more and more.
"When was the first time you dunked? Tyrek? ”
On the other hand, Cousins and Evans' "academic discussion" continues.
"Freshman year of high school."
Evans recalled: "Don't believe me, I completed the first dunk in actual combat, probably because the game was played for a period of time and my body was stretched, so I had more power." ”
"I'm also a real fighter."
Cousins nodded: "You see, people like us, physical talent is already very good, you have flexibility and a certain amount of jumping, my height can only be taught by God, for us, dunks are not a thing at all." Because as soon as we jumped, our hands were already higher than the height of the basket, and the palms were big enough to hold the basketball steadily, and it was not unusual to dunk it in. ”
"But my cousin's words, his bounce is limited, and it's not impossible to dunk, but it's very, very reluctant, as long as there is a little interference, or if your rhythm is a little bit disrupted, you will fail. The guy I called has been a slam dunk master from this stage all the way to the present. I believe...... He must be able to give his cousin some help! ”
Saying that, Cousins looked at Gu Yu, Gu Yu, who had just dodged the trainer's move of "hungry tiger pounce", suddenly came to a sharp stop and ran back, held the ball and went straight to the basket, leaped up, and glided in the air for a while, and then opened his hand to dunk.
"Be ......!"
The basketball smashed into the front of the hoop......
"I'm leaning on ......"
A series of scoldings, Gu Yu fell and ate, which caused a good-natured laughter from nearby teammates and staff.
"Oh......?"
Hearing this series of laughter, Westphaal went to look at Gu Yu again and found that many players had already stepped forward quickly, scolding Gu Yu with a smile while reaching out and pulling Gu Yu up from the ground.
The atmosphere in the team is ...... Seems to have gotten better?
Umar ...... Umar! ”
Westfahr continued to look at Gu Yu, but began to shout Casby's name.
"What's wrong, Coach?" Cosby stepped forward and asked.
"What do you think...... How is this person? Westphal asked.
"Gu, ......"
Looking at Gu Yu, Casby, who had never been smiling, actually raised a smile on the corner of his mouth: "This guy is very interesting, although he is a chatter, and he has a bad temper with others." But what do you say...... There is a strange attraction. ”
"...... attractive?" Westphal was puzzled.
"That's it...... I don't know how to describe it. Casby scratched his head and said: "It seems that by his side, everything is very relaxed, the mood is very relaxed, it feels as if nothing in the world is a big deal, the great thing is to go up and do it, if you are not satisfied, you will strive to surpass, if you are not happy, you will go up, you don't have to be afraid of anything, live yourself!" ”
Live yourself.
Westphal took the word to heart.
Living out of his own Gu Yu is like a catfish stirring stagnant water, making Sacramento, a place that was called "basketball hell" a few months ago, subtly change.
"Hahaha...... Gu, don't try it! Beware of flashing to the waist! ”
Seeing that Gu Yu wanted to try to dunk again, many players smiled kindly: "You haven't signed the official contract yet, and the salary you get now is guaranteed by the league, and there is no work-related injury insurance!" ”
"Damn, so what? Lao Tzu is happy! Gu Yu turned around and gave the player a middle finger: "You wait for a while in the practice match, Lao Tzu will deduct your life and can't take care of yourself!" ”
"Hahahaha! I can't take care of myself! Hahahaha, you're a tease......!! ”
The training ground was filled with an atmosphere of harmony that had not been experienced in Sacramento for many years.
Although the scolding continued, and Gu Yu didn't say half a good word when he opened his mouth, everyone enjoyed it very much.
Enjoy training, enjoy basketball, enjoy the time together, and enjoy the most brilliant years of your life.
"Gu ...... Look at! ”
Outside the training ground, shouts rang out.
"I'll detain you...... Yes? What are you doing?? I'm busy! ”
Gu Yutou didn't shout back, and opened his hand to try to dunk again.
“…… Do you want to sign a contract? ”
By the door, Petri groaned for a while, took a deep breath and reminded himself, "I'm a manager, I'm a manager, I can't quarrel with the players", and finally calmed down and said, "If you want to sign, come to my office!" ”
"I'm Vinska...... Huh? Contract?? ”
Gu Yu's movements on his hands stopped, and he hurriedly turned around, his eyes widened: "Finally thought of giving the future scoring champion a contract??" Count yourself on for having a vision! ”
“…… Yes, yes, and a little bit of an eye for me! "Petri's head is going to smoke.
"Here we go! I also have to pay back the salary in advance! Gu Yu ran to the door with the basketball in his arms.
“…… Advance of the line of the line. "Petri really wanted to die.
"You introduce me to an antique electronics store, I want to buy a VCR!"
“…… Okay, let me introduce. ”
"The internet speed in the rental house is too slow, I want to pull the brazing!"
“…… Yes, yes, I can pull it for you. ”
"I'm going to ...... more"
"Don't let me do it all, okay??" Petri was already about to cry, and looked at Gu Yu helplessly: "What else do you want, can you find your sponsor and pay some money?" ”
"Sponsor ......??"
Gu Yu paused.
"yes, sponsor, did you forget? That little fat man?? ”
Petri gestured and wiped his sweat like a little fat man, causing the players to laugh again. Even Westphale laughed out loud when he saw his old friend so lively.
What the hell am I doing? Why go crazy with this guy??
Petri himself was helpless, he only felt as if his personality had changed as soon as he got close to Gu Yu, and he hurriedly shook his head and said: "There are two contracts, one is the team's official contract, and the other is ...... That little fat guy brought the boss of their company with him! ”
