Chapter 55 Battalion Commander Yi Jianlian

On the fifth day of the training camp, today's training was shooting practice.

"Yi Jianlian"

Gao Dazhuang, who was practicing his pull-up jump shot, suddenly heard an exclamation.

Tall and strong also involuntarily turned around to see a tall figure, the No. 11 of the Chinese national team - Yi Jianlian.

As early as 2002, at the age of 15, Yi Jianlian entered the CBA and played for the Guangdong Hongyuan team. Later, he was selected for the Chinese national men's basketball team and became the youngest MVP in CBA history.

In the 2007 NBA draft, Yi Jianlian was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with a sixth place, and later transferred to the New Jersey Nets, Washington Wizards, and Dallas Mavericks.

As a big man of more than 2.10 meters, Yi Jianlian's physical fitness can be described as outstanding, not only has long arms and very low fat content, but also has the best running and jumping ability and bounce speed among black people.

As another young player selected for the NBA after Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian carries the hope of the majority of Chinese fans.

And as a big man with three-point range and excellent athleticism, the No. 3-5 position can be competent, but more often playing power forward.

This is similar to the position of Gao Dazhuang, Gao Dazhuang participated in this training camp more because of Yi Jianlian, from Yi Jianlian, Gao Dazhuang can learn too much.

"Hi O'Connor, thank you for your hard work" Yi Jianlian first greeted Coach O'Connor, and the first thing Yi Jianlian did when he returned to Guangzhou came to South China Normal University to pay attention to the players in the training camp.

Yi Jianlian had to go to Zhejiang in the first few days of the camp because of the training camp of the Chinese national team, but he was still concerned about the training camp.

"The children are looking forward to your arrival," Coach O'Connor, who was talking to Yi Jianlian, suddenly turned his head to the students and said, "What are you doing?" Did I tell you to stop? ”

Coach O'Connor has accumulated a very high prestige in the regular training, which scared these students into rushing into training, but because of the arrival of Yi Jianlian, everyone is eager to show themselves, but they are a little nervous.

However, the good news is that Yi Jianlian will stay in the training camp for the last two days, in addition to assisting in coaching, and also observing the situation of the students.

Yi Jianlian observed the training of the students on the sidelines and communicated with the coaches from time to time.

The tall and strong who are training can feel that Yi Jianlian is not here to "take a look at the water", and it can be seen that the standard-bearer of Chinese basketball is quite interested in the cultivation of young players.

After watching the players' training, Yi Jianlian asked Coach O'Connor: "Old friend, are there any particularly outstanding seedlings in the training camp?" ”

Coach O'Connor replied with a smile: "I knew you would ask, although they are all amateur players, there are still a few of them with great potential"

"Did you see that black kid? His name is Duole, 17 years old, 1.8 meters tall, Congolese, but fluent in Chinese, with an extremely prominent arm span, has long been famous in the major street basketball courts in Guangzhou. He has a relative, Christianeyenga, who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers. His shortcomings are that he is more impatient, does not handle the ball carefully, and often loses his cool in a hurry to perform," Coach O'Connor said, pointing to a black cadet.

"This student's name is Zhao Tianyi, 16 years old, 2.03 meters, he has a good learning ability, he has also taken some similar training courses in the United States before, his shooting is very soft, I think he has the potential for future development. Even if you don't play professionally, you will be a good player at CHBL and then at CUBA," Coach O'Connor introduced next, his tall and strong roommate Zhao Tianyi.

"This student's name is Lei Jiangcheng Khan, 17 years old, 1.94 meters, his body condition is good, the test of his ability is also satisfactory, the offense is not bad, but it is obviously confused in his mind."

"This is called student Deng Guangping, 17 years old, 1.82 meters, he was very famous in the audition, he was the main player of Zhuhai No. 3 Middle School, and he once won the championship of Guangdong Province in the three-on-three bullfighting competition held by Kende Chicken."

"This student's name is Chen Hongliang, 18 years old, 1.96 meters, his ball skills are more attractive to me, and his defensive ability is also good. But the offensive means are too simple, he can shoot from the outside and has the ability to bounce, but in the game, he only focuses on his outside shooting, and ignores the basketball defense and rebounding that he can do well, and often quarrels with teammates and referees. ”

Coach O'Connor introduced several students with a smile, and it can be seen that through these days of training, Coach O'Connor is quite familiar with and understands the students in the training camp.

"That's all?" Yi Jianlian asked with a smile.

"They're all top students in the training camp?" Coach O'Connor said seriously.

"What about him?" Yi Jianlian suddenly asked with a finger at a player.

This player is none other than Gao Dazhuang, who is concentrating on practice, and Gao Dazhuang does not know that he has attracted Yi Jianlian's attention at this time.

"He? You still have such a good vision, he is the top student in this training camp, and he is also the main player in the national CUBA region, the most difficult thing is that he is the hardest training one" After seeing Yi Jianlian pointed out that he was tall and strong, Coach O'Connor said with a wicked smile.

"Oh, the best? Get such a high evaluation from you, then I have to try his strength" Yi Jianlian actually smiled and walked towards the tall and strong.

Coach O'Connor looked back at the other assistant coaches, smiled and followed Yi Jianlian towards the tall and strong.

"Da Zhuang, stop for a moment" Gao Dazhuang looked back when he heard the voice, and said, good guy, Yi Jianlian and several training camp instructors all walked over, making Gao Dazhuang stunned.

"Our camp commander wants to practice and test your training results personally," Coach O'Connor said with a smile as he patted his tall shoulder.

"Yi Jianlian wants to play against me?" Gao Dazhuang was quite excited in his heart, and an important purpose of coming to the training camp was not to hope to get the guidance of Yi Jianlian, a leading figure in Chinese basketball? Happiness came so fast, tall and strong couldn't believe it.

"Don't be so nervous, let's practice against each other, you attack" Yi Jianlian smiled and threw the ball to Gao Dazhuang and said.

The other players in the training camp also stopped what they were doing, and they all looked at Yi Jianlian and Gao Dazhuang.

"Damn, the boss is too powerful, practice with Yi Jianlian, do you say the boss is okay?" The tall and strong roommate Zhao Tianyi said enviously.

"I think it's okay, the boss can do anything" The youngest Qin Hongjin admired the tall and strong.

"Come on" Yi Jianlian clapped his hands and signaled for the tall and strong to attack.

Tall and strong do not have the slightest stage fright, and good psychological quality is also the reason for the rapid growth of tall and strong.

"Papa" is tall and strong, dribbling the ball and approaching Yi Jianlian from the front.

"The dribbling is good," Yi Jianlian saw that he was tall and strong at 1.95 meters tall and quite skillful in dribbling, and couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart.

The tall and strong stared at Yi Jianlian intently.

"I can actually face Yi Jianlian, this is the national team's positive Indian big forward, the absolute core. Don't be distracted, you have to concentrate" Tall and strong is still quite excited in his heart.

The tall and strong dribble approached Yi Jianlian, and Yi Jianlian always kept a distance from the tall and strong one, which could not only prevent him from breaking through, but also interfere with his jump shot.

Suddenly, Tall and Strong moved, and since he stole the skills of Street Ball King Hot Sauce, Tall and Strong's independent offensive ability has improved by more than a notch.

The tall and strong hands crossed the dribble at high speed under the crotch, but this series of dazzling feints did not make Yi Jianlian lose his sense of proportion, and he still firmly occupied a favorable position to clamp the tall and strong.

Tall and strong, he quickly shifted his center of gravity, took a big step, accelerated the start, and broke through from his flank with Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian also stepped forward without hesitation to resist the tall and strong and jammed his breakthrough route.

The two fought hand-to-hand all the way to the basket, and at this time, the tall and strong made a sudden stop, turned around, stepped back and hooked his hands to shoot, and the whole action was done in one go.

Yi Jianlian hurriedly flew to cover it.

Tall and strong with a height of 1.95 meters, Yi Jianlian is 2.13 meters tall, and Yi Jianlian's physical fitness is the best in the national team.

A tall figure sits in front of the tall man, one palm swooping into the basketball.

Yi Jianlian's cover area is too large.

The tall and strong man who had already jumped temporarily adjusted the angle, and the basketball that shot out bypassed Yi Jianlian's block at an extremely high angle.

With a "dang", Gao Dazhuang knew that the ball was still interfered with by Yi Jianlian, and the attack failed.

"The offense is good, look at your defense" Although the tall and strong did not succeed in attacking, it was still affirmed by Yi Jianlian.

It was Yi Jianlian's turn to attack.

"Peng, Peng, Peng" Yi Jianlian adopted a low-position strong hitting tactic, hitting the tall and strong again and again.

Every time he hit, Gao Dazhuang had to take a step back to his calf, but Gao Dazhuang could take advantage of the space where Yi Jianlian hit again and quickly regain the lost ground.

"Huh? Good strength" Yi Jianlian also found a tall and strong card position, and he couldn't easily squeeze into the inner line.

After observing the tall and strong position, Yi Jianlian suddenly swung his head to the left, and cooperated with the left hand holding the ball to probe.

A simple action that makes the tall and strong subconscious stride block.

But Yi Jianlian suddenly did the opposite, turned around and broke through, but at that moment, Yi Jianlian's tall body seemed extremely fast.

When the tall and strong came back to his senses, he had lost his position, and he wanted to fill the position but was blocked by Yi Jianlian's elbow on the periphery.

Yi Jianlian turned around and passed people, squeezed a space under the basket, wiped the board and shot.

"Beautiful" Gao Dazhuang couldn't help but exclaim, Yi Jianlian's movements just now were quite concise, but they were very practical, and he got rid of Gao Dazhuang's defense in an instant and scored easily.

And what is even more terrifying is that Yi Jianlian did not rely on height, but relied on technology to defeat tall and strong head-on.

Next, Yi Jianlian practiced a few more balls with Gao Dazhuang, during which Gao Dazhuang relied on a backward jumper to win a ball, and Yi Jianlian basically succeeded in every attack.

During the fight between the two, Yi Jianlian also personally pointed out the shortcomings of being tall and strong, and the competition became a "teaching" competition, and the onlookers on the side also said that they had gained a lot.

Gao Dazhuang expressed his deep gratitude to Yi Jianlian for his selfless teaching.

"How? This player" After the game, Coach O'Connor asked Yi Jianlian triumphantly.

"The speed, strength, and skill are quite good, the offensive ability is outstanding, and the ball sense and ball quotient are all in the upper echelon, but as an interior player, he is fine in the amateur game, but if he is a professional player, his height will be a fatal flaw," Yi Jian replied with a thought of thinking.

"Hehe, you don't know him completely, tomorrow's training camp star game will let you see his other abilities," Coach O'Connor said to Yi Jianlian with a "smirk".

"Oh? Then I'll wait and see," Yi Jianlian looked at the tall and strong meaningfully.
