Chapter 40: Disturbances (Part 2)

Swish! Swish! Swish!

"Well done, Young, that's how you shoot. Bend your knees, form two inward 90 degrees with your right arm, take off, and pull the ball out silkily, which is great! ”

Rick clapped his palms and kept praising Yang Mo. Training Yang Mo is a very rewarding thing for him. Because with a little bit of it, Yang Mo can immediately produce excellent progress, and he loves this feeling of immediate results, which will make him seem to be very level.

He is indeed very level, but more importantly, Yang Mo has practiced day after day and year after year for more than ten years, and this long-term and orderly training has made his ball very perfect. However, because he was in a wrong training method before, now Rick has corrected him, which is equivalent to opening up Yang Mo's second pulse of appointment and supervision at once, so it seems that he is making rapid progress.

Rick is particularly satisfied with Yang Mo as a student. Dribbling coach Bender is also very satisfied, Yang Mo's ball is very good, and those long arms are also very suitable for dribbling, but... He used to rarely dribble directly past half court in games, so he always seemed a little helpless when facing pressure pressing.

Under Bender's tutelage, Yang Mo's ball protection skills are getting better and better. Yang Mo can quickly learn the movements of Bende's teaching, and he quickly integrates them. This kind of student is undoubtedly the favorite of the teacher.

Rebounding coach Blake likes Yang Mo even more, in his opinion, Yang Mo is simply a natural rebounding machine. Although his height is too short for an interior player, his skills, his positioning, his awareness, and his keen judgment of rebounding are the strongest of any player he has coached. After he taught some skills, there was really nothing to teach, and he felt that Yang Mo's understanding of rebounding was even better than his own.

So, after three days of teaching, he took the initiative to ask Mr. Pat Riley to resign, Pat Riley listened to his report, and after learning about Yang Mo's amazing rebounding talent, he was very happy, waved his hand, and agreed to his request to go to Hawaii Beach for vacation.

Compared to other coaches, the defensive coach seems to be a little unhappy. It's not because Yang Mo is not talented in defense, but precisely because Yang Mo is too talented in defense, but there is a natural difference in the defensive philosophy of the two.

Dudley's defensive philosophy is to defend passively, such as defending the opposing player's back-to-back singles, and his philosophy is not to lose his position, and not to let the opponent score easily. Yang Mo's defensive philosophy is to take the initiative to defend, always trying to cut off the opponent's ball, or destroy the offense in various ways.

Dudley insisted that his defensive philosophy was right, so he hired several tryout interior players for Yang Mo to defend. It's a pity that each of these players failed to survive Yang Mo's level, six out of ten times were destroyed to attack, and the success rate of the remaining four attacks was not high, at most one or two goals were put in.

In the end, all of these frustrated tryouts left Miami, hating the feeling of being taught a lesson, especially by a short man.

After the trial players left in frustration, Dudley still insisted that his defensive philosophy was correct, and kept saying to Yang Mo: "Yang, you can defend successfully now because these guys can't even play in the NBA, and when you meet those NBA stars, you will definitely not be able to defend." Listen to me, follow their footsteps well, and use your strength to push them away from the basket. ”

"Okay, okay."

Yang Mo always agreed, but when it came to defensive training, he still couldn't help but defend aggressively, and the success rate was quite high.

Eventually, Dudley broke down and walked into Pat Riley's office with a painful look on his face: "Sir, I really can't teach him, he's so paranoid, he always wants to break the opponent's ball in every defense." ”

"Wouldn't that be nice? At least it shows that he has a strong fighting spirit. Pat Riley said with an eyebrow.

"But... He won't work in the NBA like that. ”

"It's good that young people are a little aggressive, so let him continue like this." Pat Riley said indulgently.

"Okay then." Dudley shook his head helplessly.

After Dudley reluctantly left, Pat Riley suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked the secretary to call Yang Mo in, and after Yang Mo came in, he took the initiative to ask: "Yang, Dudley said that your defense is too aggressive, why don't you try to learn from him?" ”

"The coaching routine doesn't work for me. I'm too short compared to interior players, but that's exactly what I have to do defensively, I'm more agile than a lot of interior players, and I have a long arm span, plus I don't lose strength, so in a one-on-one defensive situation, an aggressive defense is the best fit for me. Yang Mo didn't hide it, and said very directly: "If I defend according to what the coach said, the opponent doesn't need to squeeze inside at all, just turn around and shoot." I hate the easy shots that people take over my head. ”

After hearing this, Pat Riley nodded, thought deeply, and said, "Then why don't you tell the coach about this?" ”

"His coaching philosophy is very stubborn, and I can't convince him at all, so I can only perfunctory him." Yang Mo shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.

"Well, starting tomorrow, you don't have to practice defending. Practice your fitness, shooting, and dribbling. ”

"Okay." Yang Mo nodded happily.

Yang Mo practiced in the training gym in Miami. I don't know if it's because the media is too boring in the offseason, so every once in a while they will laugh at Yang Mo, saying that he will be the shittest lottery show in NBA history or something, and some are even discussing whether Yang Mo can get a chance to play in the NBA.

These discussions were even more turbulent when Pat Riley announced that Yang Mo would not participate in the summer league, and everyone was talking about the reason why Yang Mo would not participate, and most of them thought that Pat Riley regretted it and didn't want Yang Mo to go to the summer league to make trouble, so as not to laugh and be generous.

Yang Mo didn't take the discussion of the outside world seriously at all, he just kept training every day, and then went home to barbecue and drink with Girls' Generation, and his life was very leisurely.

Pat Riley was even happier, for him, Yang Mo had become a secret weapon, and he could get good news from several coaches every day. Invisibly, in his mind, Yang Mo's status has surpassed that of Michael Beasley.

In a call with star Dwyane Wade, Pat Riley even patted his chest and said to Wade, who was a little skeptical: "Dwyan, those reports out there are so bad, don't believe it." If you've watched Young's training, you'll think he's going to be your best partner since you played, he's a perfect fit for you in every bit and you're going to have amazing chemistry. Trust me, I never lied to you, did I? ”

After getting Pat Riley's assurance, the Heat's star Dwyane Wade was relieved, he believed in Pat Riley, so in an interview, he said: "Although I don't know why Young didn't appear in the summer league, I absolutely believe that he is a talented guy, and Pat Riley never does a loss-making business." ”

Yang Mo didn't care about these, he went to buy a villa on the second day of his arrival in Miami, with the attitude of settling down here. On the third day, the girls of Girls' Generation contacted him, so he warmly invited them to come over to play, and then simply let them live in, anyway, there are so many houses, just live in it. Their agent still had some opinions at first, afraid of any accidents, but after playing with Yang Mo a few times, they agreed, and even she often came to live.
