Chapter Forty-Eight: Control the Rhythm

Cuban's big mouth is well-known in the United States, and if he has a bad feeling for a player, he will naturally show it without concealment.

Among the rookies in this year's class of 09, Li Shihao's performance surprised many people, and the Timberwolves picked up such a potential rookie with the sixth pick, which naturally made many teams secretly red.

Among the rookies in this year, there are many rookies who can show their potential in the new season, such as Jennings of the Milwaukee Bucks, Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, Evans of the Kings, etc., but judging from the performance of the new season, Li Shihao's strength has far surpassed this rookie.

The mature way of playing, calm judgment, and the ability to score at critical moments have made American fans realize the extraordinary strength of this rookie.

The NBA is a vanity fair, that's true, but here, money and fame are not the most important, but the strength of the players themselves is the most important.

There's no shortage of topics in the NBA, and at a time when the league is becoming more commercialized, there is a bit of controversial news happening at every turn.

Now, the Chinese kid's outstanding performance has gradually increased his popularity in the league, and more and more fans recognize this mediocre rookie, who can always win in a different way!

Li Shihao's physical fitness is more in line with the standards of normal people, and his height is not high, 1. With a height of 87, he will not look too abrupt in the crowd.

Coupled with Li Shihao's not bad looks, many fans have followed him on Li Shihao's Twitter, and the popularity continues to rise.

What intrigues American fans the most about this rookie is the problem of Li Shihao's playing skills.

On a fan forum in the United States, fans who thought that the IP showed New York State posted a data comparison between Li Shihao and Chris Paul, this data was not intercepted from any official media, it was completely recorded by the fans themselves, which is more credible and true.

It records the shooting positions that Chris Paul and Li Shihao are most familiar with on the court, and their offensive options, these records are very detailed, and are marked with red dots on the court diagram, and some offensive points that the two of them feel bad on the court are clearly marked with blue dots.

After this clear court diagram was released, American fans were a little stunned, and comparing the strength of the two, we can come to an amazing fact: the Chinese rookie's mid-range shooting efficiency is amazing, far more efficient than his breakthrough into the basket.

Even, this efficiency value exceeds Chris Paul's efficiency value.

This is unbelievable, many American fans expressed disbelief, but after rechecking it many times, they found that this data table revealed very little moisture, which can be said to have a very high gold content.

So, a question is in the hearts of countless fans: Can this Chinese kid be comparable to Paul, the league's No. 1 point guard?

Chris Paul, who won the title of the league's steal king three times, played an MVP-level performance the year before last, and almost won the regular season MVP trophy from Kobe, and is recognized by many American fans as the league's No. 1 point guard today.

Now that the superstars in the No. 1 position are getting older, Nash is still on his feet, but as he gets older, playing time has become the most important factor limiting his strength, and if he can't allocate his playing time properly, injuries and losing streaks will follow.

Triple-double king Jason Kidd is now frantically grabbing rebounds in the Mavericks, slowing down the Mavericks' offensive rhythm with his slow pace, and Jason Kidd and the Mavericks still need a long run-in period.

DeLong, Rondo, Westbrook...... A group of young No. 1 spots are on the rise, conquering NBA fans with their different styles of play.

But why is Chinese rookie Bruce Lee able to heat up in this league?

Take a look at Minnesota's ball market, which has been hot since the Timberwolves this season, and it's hard to imagine that it's an unusually cold northern city!

Even a number of smart teams in the league have slightly inflated ticket prices when they encounter a game against the Timberwolves, trying to make more profit from the game against the Timberwolves.

In the No. 1 position, Li Shihao's ball skills are not outstanding, in the NBA league, the style of play is much more gorgeous and fancy than him, and there are many more skillful ball control than him!

But this Chinese rookie has maintained a high level of popularity since entering the league, look at the number of his Twitter followers, the popularity of Twitter has skyrocketed to hundreds of thousands, is this the popularity that a rookie should have? You know, many stars in the league who have been famous for many years are not so popular!

Even if it is because of his Chinese identity, Li Shihao has a lot of extra points, but there must be a reason for such a high popularity!

The New York Times has been conducting a public survey in New York State, and the data is not intended to gauge the president's ability to govern, but to gauge fans' perceptions of Chinese-American rookie Bruce Lee.

It's no secret that fans in New York are mean and difficult to serve, and their opinions about stars are strange, but one thing is undeniable, the best way to test a star's quality is to see how his fans react in New York arenas!

The results of the survey took two weeks, and after a statistical analysis, the New York Times technicians found that the Chinese kid had always been the best at controlling the ball, which won the love of many fans.

There are many reasons to like a star, such as domineering dunks, sharp passing, or elegant shooting, and the judging criteria are varied, but what is the control of the rhythm and what can he bring?

Only fans who have watched superstars play live will understand what rhythm means in an NBA game?

Fast or slow, fast like a storm, continuous, rain hit the plantain; When it is slow, it is like a gentle spring rain, the drizzle is silent, and the soil is seeped into three points.

A player who can control the rhythm will be extremely harmonious in his every move, if not very good.

After three years of boring basic training, Li Shihao's basketball and his own coordination ability have already reached a very harmonious state.

When you touch the ball, you can adjust the rhythm of your body to make a variety of basketball technical movements, although it may not be as perfect as a textbook, but it is absolutely smooth, and the whole person's movements will not be stiff.

The mystery of this situation is "the unity of man and ball", and the simple point is to find a balance between the ball and the body.

Li Shihao, who has practiced for many years, will appear natural and smooth in attack and defense on the court, and watching his game will have a pleasing feeling.

The popularity of the car will naturally be a high commercial value, and there has been news in the industry that Nike and Adidas are negotiating a new sneaker contract and preparing to sign a Chinese rookie to compete for the sneaker market share in Asia.
