"Boy, don't you think you're strong one-on-one? Come on! Score in front of me! ”

"Even an old man like me can't beat me, how can you mix it up?"

"Do you know why your salary is so low, and I used to get so high? Because you're too vegetable. ”

"Shoot faster, faster, faster. Don't put your hands down when you get a pass, your habit will kill you. Wherever you catch the ball, start preparing to shoot. ”

"The posture after the shot is also very important, and it helps you correct a lot of small problems. Keep your feet shoulder-level, keep your left fingers together, fingertips pointing forward, and your right hand in a post-shot position. ”

In the training hall, Reggie Miller's scolding and Li Cheng's heavy gasping intertwined.

Li Cheng was horrified to find that it was so difficult for him to even play the ball in front of Miller.

Miller's body is not as good as before, but he can use some small means and tricks to defuse Li Cheng's attack every time. Sometimes, the body isn't everything.

"I'm shooting right here." Miller screamed, then opened his hand to hit a mid-range shot, ignoring Li Cheng's defense at all.

Miller picked up the basketball, tucked it around his waist, and said, "I have a big angle to lean back this ball!" But my hands haven't changed, do you see? That's how important the posture is after the shot. ”

Li Cheng nodded, and the beads of sweat on his face dripped down his chin to the ground.

Miller continued: "But if you want to be a pitcher, I don't build you to use step-back jumpers a lot in games, the soul of a pitcher is foot movement. When you're able to run around and find your hand, a basic shot is enough. ”

"But wouldn't it be more foolproof to use a step-back jumper or a pull-up jumper after running out of space?" Li Cheng asked.

Miller scoffed: "The step-back jumper is the most powerful in one-on-one strong shots, and the pull-up jumper? That's chronic suicide, and that action is too demanding on the body, and the load on the body is very large. ”

"But ......" Miller changed his words and said, "It's okay for you to continue to practice backward jumpers, you are so young now, there is no need to die in technical routines." I wouldn't have been a pitcher if I hadn't been physically challenged. The pitcher is a sword that goes off the beaten path! If you practice to the peak, your achievements will be very high, but you can't reach the personal peak of the basketball hall. ”

"A personal basketball pinnacle?" Li Cheng muttered to himself.

Miller glanced at Li Cheng and said, "Aggressiveness, dominance, various skills can be at your fingertips, and at the same time you have good defensive ability." ”

"Almighty?"

"Okay, don't think about it, every such person is the pride of the sky. God has given them a lot, and with their hard work to succeed, you are still far from it. But I still hope you can learn a little bit more skill, starting with shooting! Your first step is to become a great pitcher. Miller threw the ball at Li Cheng, "Keep training." ”

Miller stood aside and kept guiding Li Cheng, and stepped forward to demonstrate in person from time to time.

All kinds of theories that Li Cheng had never heard before were poured into his head, and he was immersed in them and couldn't extricate himself, Miller seemed to be addicted to being a coach, and both of them forgot about time.

Larry Bird was in the office and went back to the training gym and was a little surprised to find that the training had not stopped.

"Hey! You two, you can stop, it's already eight o'clock. ”

Hearing Bird's voice, Li Cheng and Miller realized that they had been here for 5 hours.

Miller complained, "Damn boy, I wasted 5 hours here with you. ”

Li Cheng pretended not to hear Miller's voice, and after an afternoon of getting along, he already had a deep understanding of Miller's mouth. Now he finally understands why Miller's mouth can make Joe's gang mad and make fans all over New York see him as a public enemy.

"You two get along pretty well, right?" Bird laughed.

Miller continued to complain: "This kid is stupid, you guy wasted my time in the afternoon, should you pay something?" ”

"You guy." Bird smiled and said, "Let's go!" Let's go to dinner together, and Lee and I need to talk about it too. ”

……

A relatively upscale restaurant in Indianapolis, where Li Cheng and the three of them are in it.

Bird took a sip of red wine and said, "Li, I really didn't expect you to have such strength, and now it seems that signing you is really profitable." I seem to have to thank you for that\broker. ”

Li Cheng smiled awkwardly, his ability to enter the walker had a lot to do with Jiang Xinghan's operation, which he was very grateful for, but he also knew what kind of person Jiang Xinghan was. At that time, the Pacers agreed to sign Li Cheng, but they were only willing to give a base salary of 600,000, and Jiang Xinghan opened his mouth to 2 million, almost messing things up. In the end, the Pacers offered a price of 1 million, and Jiang Xinghan reluctantly agreed, which made Bird very annoyed.

Bird shook the goblet in his hand and continued: "I see your diligence, I'm glad your diligence has been rewarded, I believe you still have potential, so I brought this guy here, I really want to see the expressions of those guys when my team has a super second-round pick, haha!" ”

After that, they chatted casually while eating, and Miller still didn't stop his mouth cannon while eating, but Li Cheng and Bird were used to it, and knew that Miller was a cold-mouthed person.

In the small talk, Li Cheng heard that Bird had the intention of trading O'Neal Jr. to rebuild the team, but Bird told Li Cheng that he and Granger would be important figures in the team's rebuild.

After eating, they chatted for a while before preparing to separate. Miller said suddenly: "Boy, I will be at the training hall at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, don't let Lao Tzu wait for you." ”

Miller's words shocked Bird and Li Chengcheng, Miller pursed his lips and said, "I only taught you shooting today, and I didn't teach you defense and running!" ”

"Aren't you going to New Orleans tomorrow?" Bird Road.

Miller said angrily: "The All-Star Game won't start tomorrow, why should I go so early?" Do you reimburse room and board? ”

Bird laughed when he heard this, and Miller slapped Bird's shoulder and said, "What are you laughing at?" Go, send me back, I'm helping you train the players, you old man. ”

Miller pulled Bird to his Ferrari, and Bird said to Li Cheng before getting into the car: "You go back and rest early, and you have to seize the opportunity tomorrow." ”

Li Cheng said goodbye to the two seniors and watched the car leave before turning to leave.

He had a lot of fun with the two NBA legends today, and most importantly he learned a lot, and only today did he know that his shot had a lot of holes, and what he was looking forward to the most was tomorrow.
