Chapter 253: Offseason Training
Li Wei's height has grown to 1.55 meters, and now he grows at a rate of 10 centimeters per year, and when the shutdown is over, he will be a little taller than the little bug Boggs!
The muscle mass on his body is not too obvious, but the regulator can transform humans in the direction of perfection, and in terms of strength, agility, reaction speed, etc., he has surpassed ordinary people, and is gradually approaching the level of an athlete.
"Steve, come here and hat me!" Li Wei shouted.
"It's coming!" Steve Nash pounced.
Li Wei made a quick shot, and the ball flew over Nash's fingertips and landed steadily into the basket!
"Let you in again." Nash frowned, then smiled wryly: "I said coach, at your rate of progress, you can really play in the NBA next season." ”
"It's still a long way off, I have to work on the three points first. With my height, it's hard not to get into the three-point line without a hat. ”
"Hahaha!" Nash chuckled.
In July, Li Wei's personal training camp began, and most of the Knicks players came. Big Yao, Big Ben, Bo Outlaw, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Stephen Jackson, Steve Nash, and new trade Tracy McGrady.
Rashad Lewis, Bruce Bowen, Charlie Ward, Alan Houston and others did not come for personal or family reasons, and Li Wei did not force it. After all, this is a shutdown period, so keep a low profile, and if the whole team gathers, I'm afraid that the players' union will come to the door immediately.
Herb Williams, Jeff Hornacek and Scott Brooks, who has decided to retire to join the coaching staff, are also here to help the young players in shifts with some of the trainers hired by Li Wei.
Buck Williams also comes and goes around from time to time, but his knee injury is not healed and he has a lot of business. He is the former president of the players' union and needs to be involved in negotiations between the union and the league.
Of course, there are also some uninvited guests who will come to Li Wei's arena.
"What about that dwarf, hurry up and let him out, I want to cap him!"
The caller was Pacers point guard Mark Jackson. This is a native New Yorker who lives in Brooklyn, and his first visit to Li Wei's training gym was brought by Herb Williams, and since then he has often come to visit the house and practice with the Knicks players to stay in shape.
"Coach, Mark is here to challenge you again!" Maddie yelled.
"Welcome, welcome! Mark, you're not going to be able to cap me today, I promise! Li Wei said.
The young people of the team are still more afraid of Li Wei, the head coach, and often release water when they are in the opposite position. In contrast, Mark Jackson never let out the water, and every time he made Li Wei very embarrassed.
Li Wei has never been afraid of embarrassment, and only devilish training can progress faster. If you want to join the NBA, it's good to have an opponent like Mark Jackson!
"Haha, I know you're not being abused enough. But let's wait a little longer and fight, I've brought a teammate over! ”
A tall white man said, "Hello, I heard that Mark often comes here to play, so I'm here too!" ”
"Welcome, welcome, come, don't forget to point out our young people!" Li Weidao.
The white man who came with Mark Jackson was none other than the Pacers' starting small forward, God's left hand Chris Mullin.
Mullin is not only a New Yorker, but also a senior of Mark Jackson, both of whom played for the Red Storm team at St. John's University, and Mullin was two years older than Jackson.
With two guests, Li Wei doesn't have to play as a playmaker in training. He divided everyone into two groups and played 5v5 for a while.
Team Orange five: Nash, Maddy, Garnett, Nowitzki, Da Yao.
White team five: Mark Jackson, Stephen Jackson, Mullin, Bo Outlaw, Big Ben.
The five members of the Orange team are the future cornerstone of the five teams in Li Wei's heart, and if Nowitzki is replaced by Kobe, it will be a complete set of Western Conference All-Star starters in the 05-06 season.
But in the end, the white team won, because although the height of the orange team has an absolute advantage, Da Yao and Dirk are too tender, and the rebounds are blown up by Big Ben and Da Bo!
"Alas, I originally wanted to abuse you, but I was pulled over by you as a sparring partner again!" Mark Jackson sighed.
"Haha, you have to play a little more to stay fit. Do you still have the strength? Let's go head-to-head! ”
"Absolutely!" Mark Jackson stood up, "I told you, people outside invited me to play exhibition games, but the appearance fee is not low, if it weren't for the fact that I can abuse you as a billionaire every day, I won't come to your arena!" ”
"Haha, you're going to be abused by me today!" Li Wei stretched out his hand, and a precise mid-range shot fell into the basket!
Mark Jackson hurriedly said: "No, no, you cheat, you haven't started yet!" ”
Mark Jackson is 1.85 meters tall and is particularly strong. If the two go head-to-head, if Li Wei can't score consecutive goals, Mark Jackson will use his frantic back to push to end the game!
Li Wei's luck today was good, he hit three yuan in front of Mark Jackson with a pull-up jump shot, and the fourth was hated off, and then he was pushed five times by Jackson's back in a row, and the game is over!
In the face of Jackson's back beating, Li Wei really had no way at all!
"If you kid practice again, you may be able to reach half of the level of Boggs, but don't expect the NBA, be a coach with peace of mind!" Mark Jackson said.
Li Wei smiled: "I think it's the opposite, maybe next season, I can rule garbage time!" ”
Jackson laughed and said, "Haha, look at your little bit of play, rule garbage time!" ”
This summer, Li Wei began to practice three-point shooting.
In his previous life, he was sure to shoot iron, but in this life, his two-point shot is getting more and more accurate, and the more he throws, the more he looks like a marksman. I have to admit that the regulator in the flying saucer has a really good effect on the cerebellum.
With the foundation of accurate two-point shooting, Li Wei is also extremely confident in his practice of three-point shooting.
At present, his main practice is to shoot three-point shots immediately after receiving the ball, and to hold the ball and stop for three points. The point is to shoot quickly and throw the ball out before the opponent can react.
He's too short, and he'll definitely be capped when the other party reacts, so fast is the first requirement!
Of course, it's also important to have a picturesque pose.
Li Wei feels that whether the shooting is beautiful or not is more important than whether he can score or not, which is the obsessive-compulsive disorder of playing too much iron in his previous life. In his previous life, he couldn't shoot, so he could only work whether his shooting posture was beautiful or not, which was extremely boring.
During the day, the players in the training hall train together, and at night, Li Wei goes home to raise cats.
"Meow meow!"
The kittens are strolling on the beach.
It is worth mentioning that Sylvia has also joined the ranks of kittens, meowing non-stop every day.
"Meow, I originally wanted to get a cat, but I didn't expect to become a kitten." The girl often looked at Li Wei suspiciously, "Dad, what kind of magical witchcraft did you use to make us have that strange hallucination?" ”
"Isn't that weird?" Li Wei asked.
"Of course it's weird, it's not strange that it turns into a kitten at night?"
"Okay, don't ask so much, if you like to be a kitten daddy, I'll take you to the beach at night, if you don't like it, forget it."
Sylvia thought for a moment and said, "Let's go then, I like to play on the beach." It would be better if I wasn't a cat, the cat wouldn't dare to go into the water, but I wanted to swim. ”
"Hahaha!" Li Wei laughed.
