Chapter 14: The Coach's Temptation

Every Saturday and Sunday from 2:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. is the official class time of the Coach Training Course. In order to distinguish students with different foundations www.biquge.info Saturday classes are more formal, mainly for some basketball lovers with a good foundation or talent, while weekends are more entertaining. In the ten years since its opening, the venue has not been moved, and it has been in the gymnasium of the Normal School for ten years. The main target of the course is young people under the age of 17, the training course aims to increase the understanding of basketball knowledge, improve the basic skills of basketball, and cultivate the interest in basketball! However, unlike other training courses, students with excellent performance have the opportunity to directly enter the city basketball club or even the provincial team, and there are already six graduated students who have played in well-known clubs at home and abroad, and Coach Wen's teaching method is more relaxed and active, so in this circle, Coach Wen's training courses have been well received by students and parents, and there is an endless stream of people who come to sign up.

In the past two years, in addition to Mo Lei, who has graduated, Wu Yu is the most powerful one in the training class, and he is also the player that Coach Wen values the most.

"Di....." a long whistle, Coach Wen concentrated the students in the midfield: "Wu Yu, you take everyone to do a warm-up exercise first." ”

"Okay, Coach! Stand in line, everyone! Stretch first, and then run three laps around the field together....." The expression between the eyebrows is clearly the temperament that a leader should have.

This is how the afternoon session began...

"Xiao Zhong, Xiao Wei, come here!" The two people who were still outside the field were called to the center of the field by Coach Wen.

"You will come to class with us this afternoon, and if you think it's good, you can come to class every Saturday or Sunday afternoon from 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. I'll also see if you guys are 'good seedlings' for playing..."The excited Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei kept nodding in agreement. Looking at the two restrained people, Coach Wen was worried about their lack of self-confidence, and he continued: "The level of students here is also uneven, but we have a common belief that we can enjoy the joy of basketball, so don't be too nervous, relax, just be yourself!" This remark really made Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei feel relieved.

As a coach, Wen Zhendong's personality charm is undoubted.

Ten minutes later, Wu Yu gathered everyone to Coach Wen after the warm-up exercise.

"Let me ask the two new students to briefly introduce themselves! Everyone is welcome! ”

After a round of applause, Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei introduced themselves to everyone succinctly and clearly. "Okay! Let's recall the content of last week's class: Xiao Zhang, let's start with you later, dribble to the free throw line in the middle circle to the north half of the court, then dribble to the opposite court, do a three-step layup, and finally come back to me! "Listening to Coach Bawen's instructions, everyone moved!" No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles; Without accumulating small streams, there can be no rivers and seas. "In order to emphasize the importance of basic skills, even though there are many students in the training class who are skilled and have good skills, they still have to go through the basic skills at the beginning of each class.

"Go with you! Wu Yu is the last one, you just do it in front of him! Coach Wen patted Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei and motioned for them to join. Fortunately, he only learned to make a three-step layup, otherwise how embarrassing Zhong Xiao would be at this moment!

The actual number of people present this afternoon is about twenty. Starting from Xiao Zhang, Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei saw everyone's movements, it was indeed a mixed bag, and it was Zhong Xiao and Xia Wei's turn......

"Xiaowei, you first!" Coach Wen handed the ball to Xia Wei. A strong desire to express makes Xia Wei confident in himself!

Xia Wei, who got the basketball, skillfully dribbled the ball to the free throw line and slightly adjusted his shooting posture, but he was not completely on his feet, standing on tiptoe and jumping! Sell! His body looked a little uncoordinated after taking off and jumping, and the trajectory of the ball's flight deviated from the pre-aimed position.

β€œbang!!” The basketball landed on the left side of the basket and bounced out with a loud sound of iron! Xia Wei, who was a little annoyed, hurriedly ran to pick up the basketball, and Xia Wei, who missed the shot, was even more eager to prove himself by making a three-step layup!

Xia Wei, who received the basketball again, wanted to turn around and run to the back of the basket, and "wittily" used a back dribble to dial the ball in front of him, but this back dribble was a little anxious, and the basketball hit the heel of his left foot...... Pop out of the line!

Some of the students who looked at the lively mentality made some voices with a sense of superiority, and Zhong Xiaozhen, who was standing next to Coach Wen, sweated for him.

"I haven't learned to walk yet, I want to run!" Tsundere Wu Yu said on the side.

"Good ball!!! Go on! Go on! Coach Wen clapped his hands at Xia Wei and cheered him on loudly!

This shocked Zhong Xiao! However, this brought him a great encouragement for his next appearance! It also made Wu Yu, who had just commented vainly, quite ashamed, and unconsciously froze his expression!

Xia Wei, who picked up the request again, ran to another field according to the established route!

When Xia Wei dribbled to the half, he slowly approached Xia Wei, and Coach Wen continued to bend over, clapped his hands, and said, "Slow down!" Slow down! No hurry! Dribble the ball steady!! ”

There are many types of good coaches, not only to give the right guidance to the players in terms of technique, but also to have the quality of motivating the players from the heart. Coach Wen not only encouraged Xia Wei at a critical time, but also made timely and appropriate requests to him!

"Watch out when you go to the basket! Don't be fast! Coach Wen continued to give guidance to Xia Wei.

Xia Wei, who walked into the three-point line, put the ball into the basket with a slow layup with a beautiful pair of hands from the right side, and then seriously dribbled back to the middle circle and handed the ball to Coach Wen! Slightly embarrassed to touch his hair.

Without making much comments, Coach Wen directly handed the basketball to Zhong Xiao.

"Drop!" A whistle blew, and Zhong Xiao ran straight to the free throw line...

Stop in front of the free throw line, adjust your footsteps, and stand still! Dribble twice more!!

"Poof!" The crowd in the middle circle erupted in laughter! Zhong Xiao turned his head to look at everyone in the middle circle in a daze, and this time it was Xia Wei who sweated for Zhong Xiao.

According to the rules of basketball, this is a secondary dribble, which is a common violation on the basketball court: the person who dribbles the ball again after touching the basketball with both hands. Because of Coach Wen's majesty, the laughter lasted for a long time.

"Alright, everybody, be quiet! Zhong Xiao, you continue! ”

Zhong Xiao, who didn't seem to have reacted yet, was not affected, and threw the basketball out according to his familiar shooting movements and soft touches! The basketball crosses a parabola with a high arc and hollows into the net! Coach Wen's eyes lit up, and he carefully watched Zhong Xiao's movements.

Just when Zhong Xiao picked up the ball, Coach Wen took a step inside the three-point line and said, "Xiao Zhong, shoot again!" ”

"Huh? Still... Do you want to vote again? Zhong Xiao was a little stunned and uneasy, thinking of the things that everyone criticized for his strange shooting movements.

"Well, you vote again... Don't be nervous, just do the same movement as before. ”

"Okay!" Zhong Xiao was still a little puzzled.

Coach Wen, who was closer, looked more focused! Zhong Xiao raised his hand, made a move, and his fingertips took advantage of the trend to dial up, no accident! Another beautiful hollow into the tennis! After the goal, Zhong Xiaoxiao looked at Coach Wen blankly and waited for the next instructions.

"Hmm... Well... Well! Not bad! Okay, you go ahead! Coach Wen said three words of affirmation in a row!

Zhong Xiao continued...

Without Xia Wei's skillful dribbling and his strong expressiveness, Zhong Xiao took the ball to the other half, followed the three-step layup he had "stolen" from Wu Yu last week, scored the ball steadily, and then returned to the center circle.

The experienced coach Wen kept the every move of the two new students in his mind and pondered carefully, and he also had some ideas for their basketball life.

Wu Yu, who got the basketball, has already taken a step forward and is ready to complete the task assigned by the coach...

Coach Wen strode forward and said, "Wu Yu! Stop! Let me start with a few words, students! Everyone did a good job just now, but everyone still has some minor problems! The following is Wu Yu, I hope you will take a serious look, compare yourself, and find your own shortcomings! All right? "He has a good grasp of his apprentice's skills.

After a sharp sound, Wu Yu started! Dribble, stop, tiptoe, start, shot, basketball into the net! Quickly hold the ball to the opposite basket, adjust the pace, hold the ball, one step, two steps, jump, pick the ball, and hit the board into the frame!!! All the actions are done in one go, no mud or water, solid and powerful!

Zhong Xiao couldn't help but silently sigh in his head that Wu Yu was excellent!

"Well, that's good..."Coach Wen also nodded frequently.

"Good! Do you have any questions? After a pause, no one asked questions, Coach Wen asked everyone to sit down around the center circle and continue the class: "If there is no problem, let's start a new class today!" In a basketball game, in the face of one-on-one and one-to-many situations, there are many ways to get rid of the defenders, you can rely on tactical cooperation, or you can shake the opponent away through your speed advantage, weight advantage or various feints! Shaking off the opponent will give us more options in attack and the success rate will be greatly increased, so in addition to relying on physical advantages, how to effectively get rid of defenders in terms of technique becomes very important! The main content of our lesson is some breakthrough skills! ”

"I need two people to demonstrate, Wu Yu! You come here first, there's another one, um......" Coach Wen thought as he glanced at his students!

...... Probably because he was attracted by Zhong Xiao's aura when he played, he also wanted to give him a chance to face the master.

"There's also a... Zhong Xiao! Zhong Xiao, come on! Coach Wen pointed at Zhong Xiao.

For the first time! Wu Yu and Zhong Xiao's first face-to-face confrontation! Although this is a demonstration in training! Although Zhong Xiao and Wu Yu's skills are not at the same level at this time, this is the beginning of their future appearance!
