Chapter 296: Physical Fitness Test

Fan Ju's situation is actually similar to Yao Ming's, and the media that belittled him have long appeared, but the behavior of these people has only made Fan Ju even more special.

Victory after victory, relying on the upset promotion, Fan Ju not only achieved a breakthrough in results, but also slapped those media in the face, which boosted his fame and made the world know that there is such a Chinese player in the professional tennis world.

"Brother Yao's girlfriend? It's beautiful, this height is really a match for you! Fan Ju saw the photo that Yao Ming put in the room, although he didn't know who it was, but the praise was sincere.

Yao Ming smiled, it was not public, but his friends knew the relationship between Ye Li and himself, although he couldn't stay together at the moment like Fan Ju, but he had a sustenance, and his heart would become stronger during the competition.

"Don't talk about me, I don't know if you don't ask, you are really powerful, they say you are a prodigy, what you will learn, you have studied tennis for a year, and you have played so well."

Fan Ju touched his head, shy, prodigy or something, it's too exaggerated, but I don't know his situation, looking at his table, I do think so, not to mention sports, Fan Ju has never been worried about learning since he was reborn, his memory is good, and he has the comprehension of adults, and if he doesn't learn well, I'm really sorry for the opportunity to do it again.

"By the way, how are you going to spend the next few days? It just so happens that there have been no games for the past few days, so do you want me to go shopping with you? Yao Ming also had good intentions, but he didn't think that with his height, going out was a benchmark.

Fan Ju dared to walk with him, not as if he was carrying a signboard. Fan Ju can't afford to take that risk.

"No, it's good to stay, and that's what American cities are like that. It's just that if it's convenient, find me a place to hide, a place where I can train. "Fan Ju has nothing to ask for, the competition has stopped for the past two months, but the training task has become heavier.

Delayed for a few days, I have to find all of them when I go back, plus I can't show up. He can sit still, but he can't sit in the room for three days, can he?

"Training...... Regular gyms are definitely not going to work, huh...... You wait. I'll call and ask if I can do it. Yao Ming didn't say anything, he took his mobile phone and started dialing, and he didn't intend to avoid Fan Ju.

Chinese to English. Yao Ming has clearly adapted to this rhythm. However, to Fan Ju's surprise, the first word Fan Ju said was "coach".

"Coach, I'm Yao Ming, oh, nothing, well, one of my fellow countrymen, to the Chinese. He's going to borrow some training facilities these days, huh. Oh, it's not a stadium, it's just gym equipment, yes, he's an athlete too, tryout? NO! NO! This time it's miserable......" Yao Ming looked embarrassed while taking down the phone, Fan Ju only listened to Yao Ming's conversation, but he also felt that something was wrong.

……

Toyota Center, home of the NBA Rockets, is a new, new, state-of-the-art stadium that is not only home to the NBA Rockets, but also home to the women's basketball WNBA and the Houston Air hockey team.

"Is this gentleman your friend? Somewhat short, is the position a point guard or a shooting guard? "The registered white coach is responsible for the basic physical test, and every player who goes to the team tryout goes through the most basic process with him first.

Yao Ming and Fan Ju were a little embarrassed, because of the phone call just now, head coach Jeff Van Gundy obviously misunderstood what Yao Ming meant, Yao Ming originally wanted to just let Fan Ju use the training ground in the stadium, but who would have thought that he was recommended by Yao Ming as a friend of the team.

As the star of the team, Yao Ming still has a lot of status in Van Gundy's heart, and even Van Gundy knows very well that even if the owner of the Rockets replaces him, it is impossible to replace Yao Ming, who has shown such a high economic effect after only one year.

He only thought that Yao Ming was embarrassed to say it directly, and he directly opened the door for Yao Ming's "friend" on his own initiative.

"Children don't need to be nervous, this is just a test, physical conditions do not say a thing, there are still many examples of success in the NBA." The coach looked at Fan Ju's appearance, thought he was nervous, and comforted.

What else can Fan Ju say, he can only deal with it with a smile, he can only continue to pretend now, but it is actually quite interesting.

Fan Ju also played basketball in college, or before he actually started playing tennis, the most he participated in was basketball.

The biggest reason why Fan Ju didn't choose basketball after he had the ability was because of his height, he was only in his early 180s at the time, and he really didn't have any advantage in a country full of giants over 2 meters.

Just like Yao Ming next to Fan Ju, 226 cm, even if he just stands in place, with both hands raised, the height of the ball can touch the basket, Fan Ju is not to say that he is robbing, even touching a ball is enough to choke.

Fan Ju didn't speak, and the physical test coach thought that Fan Ju's English was not good, he knew that Fan Ju was a thief, and even the name on the form he filled out just now was fake, so he was afraid that Yao Ming would get into trouble by revealing his stuffing.

"Brother Yao, what will I do later? Play real or fake? "Fan Ju is actually quite interested in the NBA's physical measurements, unlike professional tennis, which is basically known only to players and coaches, and the NBA is public.

Even some coaches, lacking players, don't need to look at the player's table at all, take the list, and directly pick the number of jù high from it, according to their words, even if the technique is poor, it is a muscle stick, you can't score points, and it's not bad to cheat a foul on the field.

"Don't, if you want to come, come really, didn't you brag about yourself just now, anyway, you can't pass the basketball level in the end, leave a number of jù down as a commemoration!" Yao Ming was also intrigued.

Blaming is it a crime? Fan Ju was planted in his mouth, watching Yao Ming beckoning and throwing himself here, Fan Ju felt that he had been stabbed twice by his friend.

"Come on, let's start with the basic measurements, can you understand what I'm saying?" The coach was also a little panicked when he saw that Yao Ming was not there, he didn't understand Chinese, and he planned to let Yao Ming be a translator.

"YES, I UNDERSTAND." What else can Fan Ju do at this time, is he really pretending not to understand English?

The process of physical testing is actually very fast, and the NBA has long formed a set of basic specifications, but unlike the tests that Fan Ju usually does, the physical tests of the NBA are more inclined to basketball, and have relatively unique test requirements for basic body elements, bounces, and movement sprint speed.

The basic test is very fast, mainly barefoot height, and the height of wearing shoes, arm span and other body numbers.

"Barefoot height 184 cm, shoes height 187 cm, weight 86.5 kg, arm span 190." On the whole, it is not a particularly good number, especially the arm span, which is only 6 cm more than the height, which can only be said to be a normal level.

Talent is like that, and it's not a problem in other sports that don't focus on height, but basketball is not as good as it could be.

"Okay, you go warm up first, and after 10 minutes, do the bounce and speed test." The coach has lost much hope, and these two are not Asians' strengths in themselves.

If you don't have Yao Ming's gifted height, in terms of bounce explosiveness and sprint speed, want to rush past black players? Race itself is a limitation.

Fan Ju also felt some fatigue from the other party, or when Fan Ju came, this coach was not too optimistic.

I didn't feel discrimination, I can only say that Yao Ming's face here is big enough, even if there is no hope, he will not just blast Fan Ju out directly, and still complete the prescribed tests one by one.

The number of bounces jù as always, the standard running bounce is 92, the bounce on the spot is 76, and Fan Ju's lower limbs are quite powerful, but even so, it is impossible to bounce and dunk on the spot, but the problem is that under the defense of a group of elders, the result can be imagined.

"You're fast enough, I didn't expect Asians to have such explosive power." Maybe it's because he saw a rare bright spot, and even this coach, who is used to seeing high numbers, can't help but praise it.

Fan Ju knows his own business, a bottom line switchback run is only 56 meters in total, the most difficult thing is the acceleration after the deceleration at the moment of the turnback, but this pair of Fan Ju is commonplace, on the tennis court, to change the body's center of gravity as the basis for the sudden change of direction to follow, is one of his tricks that are talked about.

A baseline switchback run of 10.8 seconds and a three-quarters sprint of 3.36 are at the level of an NBA guard.

In other words, according to the standards of the NBA, Fan Ju's body is only the level of a backup guard with insufficient height, barely bounced, and standard speed.

"Can you get to the bench level?" Fan Ju is actually quite surprised by this, the requirements of tennis are different, Fan Ju in addition to physical ability, more emphasis is on technical level, and these muscle blocks that can completely rely on muscles and explosive power to play, this is already a very good table.

The physical test is basically over, and now there are only the last two tests left, 84 kg of bench press, and the number of extreme bench presses, but this is the coach who is least optimistic about Fan Ju, even if Fan Ju's muscles appear to be very solid, but bench press?

"Coach Van Gundy, why are you here, didn't you say rest today?" The physical test coach suddenly saw a figure coming from outside the door, with a straight suit, followed by the big man Yao Ming, but when the two stood together, Van Gundy, who was less than Yao Ming's chest, really looked a little small.

In his first year after taking over the Rockets, Van Gundy attached great importance to the affairs of any team, even the slightest change, he would personally care about it, which also made his hair fall out faster and faster, and he only hoped that this team could get good results in his own hands.
