Chapter 261: Packing Failed?
Packing from Billups, Tang Shuai is still somewhat confident, after all, Billups is now 40 years old, and his body is definitely not as good as before, judging from the results of the packaging system scan, there is only a purple passing bag and layup bag left, and now he is still very sure to deal with it.
So he didn't prepare much, just like when he packed Booker last night, he wore a casual suit to the arena, and was ready to change his clothes when he arrived at the stadium.
Before he entered the stadium, he heard a "bang" sound inside, and after he entered, he saw Billups dribbling in place to warm up, most of his clothes were wet, and he should have been practicing for a long time.
The agreed time with Billups was 8 o'clock in the evening, but I didn't expect him to come so early, Tang Shuai was a little surprised and said, "Coach, why did you come so early?" ”
Billups heard the voice, looked up and saw that it was Tang Shuai, frowned slightly, and said, "You are dressed like this, it doesn't look like you're here to train." ”
Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, knowing that Billups was talking about what he was wearing, and hurriedly explained: "I want to change it when I get ready, I'm sorry, I'll change it immediately." ”
Billups didn't say anything and continued to dribble in place.
Tang Shuai observed Billups while walking to the sidelines, although you are old, but after all, you have not been retired for a long time, and the skillful dribbling is like sticking the ball to your hand.
He put down his bag, quickly changed into his training clothes, and walked over.
"Breaking through is the easiest thing in basketball, and there's a few things to master it, dribbling. Judging by the speed...... "Billups is still in that style." As soon as he saw Tang Shuai coming, he said straight to the point.
Tang Shuai also pricked up his ears and listened.
"Breakthrough is the most basic technique in basketball. It is also one of the most basic ways for defenders to score, in general, he is divided into cross-step breakthrough and step-by-step breakthrough, to do a good breakthrough, the first and most basic is dribbling, not only refers to the dribble in front of him, crotch dribbling, back dribbling, cross dribbling, these must be proficient, of course, I have observed that your dribbling is still good. Billups continued.
Tang Shuai nodded, after having the prince's dribble bag. He has greatly improved his dribbling skills.
"Dribbling is the first step, the next step is judgment, you need to watch the change of the defender's center of gravity before you start the breakthrough, look for opportunities to break through, the dribbling you practiced before, it is generated to create opportunities, and once you have the opportunity, you have to speed up instantly. Successfully beat the opponent before the opponent's center of gravity changed back......" Billups talked eloquently, he was not only teaching Tang Shuai how to break through, but also how to judge the timing of the breakthrough.
Tang Shuai listened very seriously.
“…… These are all things that you can slowly experience in the next games, and now I will teach you how to judge them. Come, you as a defender trying to defend me. After Billups finished talking about the theory, he was about to start teaching Tang Shuai to practice.
Tang Shuai nodded. After rubbing his hands, he got serious.
It's just a teach, but it's very useful for packing later. After all, he hadn't played against Billups before. Such an opportunity to test the "enemy situation" is very rare.
Billups' teaching was very targeted, and Tang Shuai's defense seemed a little leaky in front of him.
Battier's defensive pack is more about the shooter's defense, and the role of the defense when breaking through is very limited, you can't always cover your face when the opponent is breaking, right? That's a big chance it's going to be a poke in the eye......
So after this temptation, Tang Shuai's originally calm heart suddenly hung up, if he couldn't prevent Billups, he didn't seem to be able to knock down the purple pass bag from the assistant coach's hand.
The training time passed quickly, and when Billups had taught everything he wanted to teach, the training was over.
"That's all for today's training, and I'll guide you alone when I have time." Billups said and wiped the sweat from his head with a towel, after all, he was old, and after such a period of exercise, his physical strength seemed a little unbearable.
Tang Shuai is hesitating, the next game to play the Suns, even if he plays the starter, if he goes to the low post to play back, the Suns will definitely use the bag, after all, the last game against the Grizzlies has proved that it is very difficult to defend his back play alone, if he does not hit the pass package before this, it is equivalent to one less offensive weapon, and it is the most sure weapon, the impact is definitely great.
But now it's clear that playing against Billups is a big risk, and it's likely that he'll lose a purple skill pack for it.
In his mind at this moment, it was like two villains were constantly fighting, one wanted him to pack, and the other asked him to give up packing, constantly fighting, so that he didn't know what to do for a while.
Billups put the towel in his bag at this point, apparently ready to leave.
"Coach!" Tang Shuai shouted.
Billups stopped his hand and looked at him suspiciously.
"Coach, let's have a bullfight and test my learning." Tang Shuai raised his voice and said, as if to cheer himself up, but also to persuade another self not to let himself pack.
Billups suddenly laughed.
Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Billups meant by laughing.
"Not long ago, I heard that guy Joe talk about you, that after he taught you, you had a bullfight with him, and then beat him, it seems that you have a soft spot for bullfighting?" Billups said as he put his bag down, turned around and smiled.
Tang Shuai didn't expect Billups and Johnson to be familiar, and his face suddenly looked a little embarrassed.
"But since you spoke, I'll practice with you, but you have to be mentally prepared." Billups took off his coat as he spoke.
Tang Shuai listened to the familiar words, and he didn't know why, but suddenly felt that Billups seemed to have expected him to propose bullfighting, and seemed to be ready to fight with him in the same way.
Suspicion is suspicion, Billups is undressed, and he also walks over with the ball.
One-on-one, five rounds, Billups strikes first.
Because he had already played against Billups in training before, he was very vigilant after coming up at this time, shrinking his defensive position very inward, and trying not to give Billups a chance to break through directly.
Billups dribbled expressionlessly, the ball stuck in his hand and pressed straight in.
The more Tang Shuai shrank in, the closer he pressed, and when he reached the free throw line, he made a feint, followed by a sudden acceleration that was directly a tough breakthrough.
When Billups was in the Pistons in his early years, he was best known for his ball quotient, his ability to command on the court, followed by his breakthrough, his breakthrough was fast, and very hard, very good at the kind of breakthrough under the high-pressure defense, often a burst is a wonderful 2+1, and the more critical the time, the more useful, which is also the origin of his nickname Mr. Key.
Although Tang Shuai was mentally prepared, his previous judgment was still very right, as soon as Billups suddenly came over, he instantly felt a little unbearable, although he was already old, but his judgment was too accurate, he just moved his center of gravity slightly, and it was too late to come back.
Billups easily squeezed him away and scored two points on a layup.
Billups didn't speak, but frowned slightly, as if he was not very satisfied with Tang Shuai's performance.
Tang Shuai clapped his hands and refocused himself.
And then, it didn't work.
Billups is a very smart player, he knows what his current body is best at, and he seems to know what Tang Shuai's weakness is.
Tang Shuai tried to use his power to suppress, but after a round of contact, Billups actually used his power to create speed for himself, as long as he was close to the basket, he was strong.
Tang Shuai will be a foul if he is not careful, and there are two 2+1s.
After playing four balls, Tang Shuai was out of breath, and he was stunned that he didn't defend a single ball.
At 4:0, Billups frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with Tang Shuai's performance.
Tang Shuai's face was very ugly at this time, and he suddenly regretted making such a hasty packing decision, and he probably couldn't prevent this ball.
Packing failure, a word that has been considered many times, has become so close for the first time. (To be continued.) )
