Chapter 37: A Very Serious Problem
Seeing that Ye Feng didn't react at all, Ye Ning glared at him fiercely, and then smiled at Hornacek: "It is his blessing that Mr. Hornacek is willing to take the time to guide this stinky boy, and I will agree for him as a parent, and I will urge him to ask you more after he is discharged from the hospital." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Ye Feng, who came back to his senses, grinned, acquiescing to his father's self-assertions. But what he thought in his heart was different from Ye Ning: Hmph, if it weren't for Abby's face, I wouldn't have asked you for advice on shooting! I even said that my shooting is flawed, I want to see what you can say!
Seeing that Ye Feng had no objection, Hornacek smiled and wrote an address on a sticky note, stuffed it directly to Ye Feng, and said, "Ye, I've been here a lot in the past two weeks, if you have time, come to me directly!" ”
Then he took Abby to say goodbye to everyone. Abby grimaced at Ye Feng: "Hey, stupid, welcome to play when you have time, my father's training will definitely not disappoint you." She deliberately accentuated the tone of the word "disappointed."
After the two closed the door, Guo Yu couldn't wait to ask, "Xiao Feng, how did you know that girl?" It looks like the two of you have a good relationship, isn't it ......" Ye Feng's old face turned red, and he quickly denied: "Mom, where do you want to go?" It was a pure coincidence that I met her, and that fat man from Brown was there at the time, so you can ask him if you don't believe him. Now the two of us are pure friends, not as complicated as you think! ”
Seeing that his mother had the posture of breaking the casserole and asking to the end, Ye Feng quickly changed the topic: "Dad, why did you help me agree without asking my opinion?" I don't think there's anything wrong with my shooting, and it's been proven by the game, no matter how much I say, it really works! ”
Ye Ning glanced at his son deeply and said, "To be honest, I don't know what advice Hornacek has for your shooting, but as one of the most important three-point masters in NBA history, he has more experience in shooting than me, after all, shooting is only one of my weapons, but he is the only guy who eats." If you can get his guidance, you kid will have fun! ”
Seeing that Ye Feng still looked depressed, he smiled narrowly: "And isn't this creating an opportunity for you and Abby?" Ye Feng's old face was red, but he couldn't refute his father's words, so he had to cover the quilt and continue to be an ostrich.
Ye Feng was discharged from the hospital a day later, in fact, his flu had already recovered, and the reason why he was hospitalized for observation was only because the doctor thought he was too weak, and he was still in the ward for the sake of insurance. But how can an active person like Ye Feng endure the life of being trapped in the hospital? After repeatedly confirming that he was fully recovered, he persuaded Guo Yu to help him go through the discharge procedures.
On the day he was discharged, Westbrook and Loew led the team to a comfortable victory over Stanford University, led by the Lopez brothers. Although Loew was limited to the off-the-slew duo on the opposite side and only scored 10 points, he grabbed 18 rebounds and dished out four assists. However, the team's top scorer was unexpected, as Collison contributed 21 points off the bench, and UCLA's bench score lead was 47-28, which also made the Lopez brothers' combined 32 points and 17 rebounds useless.
After the game, Westbrook couldn't wait to call Ye Feng, obviously he was very satisfied with the team's mental outlook. He said happily on the phone: "Ye, it looks like everyone has come out of the defeat in the last game, and I am very confident in the next game, so you can report to the team later." He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ye Feng said angrily: "Fuck off, I was discharged from the hospital today, and I will definitely be able to catch up in the next game." I can't sit still at home when you guys run on the pitch. Wait for me to come back, I don't want to try it a second time! ”
In order to allow Ye Feng to rest better, Guo Yu specially called the school to ask for leave. Fortunately, the provost of the school had already known the whole story from Holland, and when he heard that Ye Feng was going to take a leave of absence for a few days, he immediately agreed to come down, and told Ye Feng to supplement more nutrition at home and compete for the honor of the school.
Ye Feng had a very comfortable time at home in the past two days, of course, this was only mental. As a semi-professional basketball player registered in the NCAA, even if he did not participate in the team's training, Ye Feng did not relax, he still maintained his physical fitness at home through fitness equipment, even if Guo Yu ordered him to rest, he still insisted on not eating high-fat and high-calorie food, and when he ate, he always put chicken and vegetables in front of him.
Of course, Guo Yu was very distressed, but when she asked Ye Feng to eat more other food, Ye Feng said to her very seriously: "Mom, I know that you are for my good, but I am going to enter the NBA in the future, and good diet and exercise habits cannot be easily broken." As a son, I really should eat these delicious dishes, but as a basketball player, I have to take responsibility for my own body, so you don't have to dissuade me. ”
However, Ye Ning is very supportive, after all, he used to be a professional footballer, so he understands the importance of a healthy body to athletes. Although he was also a little distressed, he still buried these emotions in his heart, but actively accompanied Ye Feng to exercise together, and at the same time began to eat the same food as Ye Feng, leaving Guo Yu speechless when he looked at the dishes on the plate that had barely been touched.
At noon the day before Ye Feng returned to school, Ye Ning suddenly said to him: "Xiao Feng, do you want to visit Hornacek this afternoon?" When you get back, you probably only have time on weekends. Ye Feng thought about it, and after eating, he took a nap beautifully, and drove to the address that Hornacek wrote to him at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Originally, Ye Feng thought that this was just a temporary rental apartment for Hornacek in Los Angeles, so when he saw the door of a courtyard with a court with the exact same house number on paper, his eyes widened in surprise. After much identification, he had to believe that this was the place he was looking for.
"NBA players are so rich!" Ye Feng sighed as he parked his car in a parking space on the side of the road. Unsure of how Hornacek would "point" him, Ye Feng deliberately wore his favorite Lakers No. 8 jersey to visit. Now it seems that the decision was the right one, and the basketball court in the yard speaks volumes.
Ye Feng walked to the door and reached out to ring the doorbell next to him. Soon Hornacek's voice came over the intercom: "Hey, hello, who is it?" What's the matter? Ye Feng hurriedly said: "Hello Mr. Hornacek, I am Ye Feng, because I will go back to school tomorrow, and I will come to visit you today." ”
Hornacek seemed to laugh, and he said, "Ye, it's you, come in quickly, I was also trying to see what kind of level your shooting is, and I couldn't see the video very clearly before." Saying that, the door slowly opened, Ye Feng smiled, and walked in with his head held high, but he was thinking about what kind of moth was this. If Hornacek knew that Ye Feng was thinking like this, it was estimated that he would let Ye Feng get out immediately.
Seeing Ye Feng wearing the Lakers' No. 8 jersey, Hornacek's expression was a little strange: This kid didn't mean it, right? In the 1996-97 and 1997-98 seasons, the Jazz played against the Lakers in the playoffs, and the results were both heavy defeats for the Lakers, a 0-4 and a 1-4 forced the Lakers to find Phil Jackson to take the helm, which led to the "OK combination" three consecutive championships. And in the 2003-04 season, the Lakers also got Karl Malone, even though Malone was dying at the time, he and Stockton still represented an era of the Jazz, and this switch to Los Angeles naturally caused dissatisfaction among Jazz fans. It can be said that these are two teams that had a lot of grievances at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century.
But obviously Ye Feng didn't think of this, he just purely admired Kobe, as for the relationship between the Jazz and the Lakers, he really didn't think about it so much. Thinking of this, Hornacek shook his head with a smile, took out a brand-new basketball from the room, and motioned for Ye Feng to go to the yard together.
Ye Feng was surprised at this time: Could it be that Hornacek still wants to demonstrate on the spot? Or just want to see your shooting skills? He was suspicious, but he followed Hornacek to the court in the courtyard. Hornacek thought for a moment and said, "Now there's just one ball, there's no timing tool, you throw five balls at each point in the two bottom corners, 45 degrees on the left and right and at the top of the arc, and I'll pass the ball to you and then roughly calculate the time." Get started when you're ready! ”
Ye Feng nodded, moved his hands and feet, picked up the basketball from the ground and ran to the bottom left corner, took a deep breath, and threw the ball directly. "Huh!" The basketball went directly into the frame, Hornacek waited under the basket, he grabbed the falling basketball in time and continued to pass to Ye Feng.
After receiving the ball, Ye Feng shot again without hesitation, and the basketball pierced the basket again. Hornacek was thinking seriously while standing under the basket and watching Ye Feng's shooting performance. Soon Ye Feng finished shooting the left bottom corner, generally speaking, the bottom corner three-point shot has the highest shooting percentage, because it is closest to the basket, and Ye Feng is also very good at shooting all five.
Then Ye Feng ran to the second point, which is the position of the left 45-degree angle, and continued to throw the ball out again and again, in this position his three-point shot was 4 of 5. Then there is the top of the arc, the right 45-degree angle and the right bottom corner, five points, five balls per point, Ye Feng actually hit 22 of these 25 balls, which is indeed a very amazing shooting skill.
But Ye Feng didn't notice that Hornacek's brows had furrowed. Just as Ye Feng was about to speak, Hornacek preemptively said: "Ye, your shooting is really strong, whether it is hand shape or rhythm, you have done it perfectly, but ......" Ye Feng was originally happy in his heart, but unexpectedly, Hornacek came to a "but", generally if this word appears, it means that the content behind will have a divine turn.
Sure enough, Hornacek continued: "But you have a serious problem with your shot. Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of disbelief, but Hornacek's conclusion made the smile on the corner of his mouth freeze:
"Your shot is too slow!"
