Chapter 69: Exceeding Expectations, Ending Early

"Bang!" "Bang!"

In the Spurs' training hall, the sound of dribbling can be heard from time to time, this is the Spurs' team training, and the players are training according to their own training needs. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On one of the courts, Li Yang was dribbling the ball to break through, and next to him was assistant coach Chad Flucier, who was constantly pushing Li Yang with his hand during the breakthrough of Li Yang.

If it was in the game, such a move would definitely be a foul, but this is training, and in order to give Li Yang stronger defensive pressure, Chad Fucier directly pushed with his hands.

Li Yang struggled to resist the force from Chad Fusier's body and kept rushing forward, and then jumped up in the three-second zone.

Under the basket, the bench inside line who came to cooperate with Li Yang's training, the physically strong DeJuan Blair immediately pounced after seeing Li Yang jump.

Blair jumped up to interfere, Li Yang did not dodge, his body collided directly with Blair, while leaning on Blair, he stabilized his body, and with a slight flick of his wrist to shoot the ball.

The basketball hits the rebound and falls into the basket and hits the layup.

Watching the ball fall into the basket, Li Yang grinned slightly, not just because he completed the offense for several consecutive rounds, but he found that compared with the crossing just now, after half a year of continuous dribbling and layup training, his wrists seemed to be getting softer and softer!

"Very good, Yang, that's the end of today's training. After Li Yang completed the layup, Chad Fusier also shouted.

"Okay, Chard, DeJuan, thank you. Li Yang adjusted his breathing and said to the coach and teammates who accompanied him in training, continuous high-intensity confrontation training, even if Li Yang's physical fitness was excellent, there was a trace of fatigue at this time.

At this time, it has come to April 1, 2013, although it has only been more than a month, Li Yang's body looks a lot stronger, and the muscle thickness and lines on his bare arms are more obvious than a month ago, and Li Yang's physical training results can be vaguely seen this month.

Chad Fusier walked over to Li Yang at this time and said, "Yang, good job, our training plan for this stage has been preliminarily completed. ”

"Isn't it the middle of the day?" said Li Yang with some surprise, remembering that when he had just made the training plan, Chad Faucier told him that the whole training plan would last about 55 days and would last until mid-April, when the regular season ended.

After the start of the playoffs, because the intensity of the game will increase, in order to make the players physically sufficient, the team will reduce high-intensity training, mainly focusing on technical and tactical training.

In fact, the rest of the Spurs' players have been cutting back on high-intensity training since half a month ago in preparation for the playoffs. Of course, some regular training still has to continue, which is the basis for ensuring that players can play consistently in the playoffs.

"Yes, it has been preliminarily completed. Chad Fusier replied, "We are half a month ahead because your training speed and results have exceeded our expectations, Yang, your talent is really outstanding!"

Chad Faucier Li Yang's progress has indeed exceeded the expectations of the Spurs coaching staff, whether it is physical training or technical training, Li Yang's acceptance and improvement speed is very amazing!

The Spurs coaching staff also judged that even Li Yang's physical talent has not yet been fully developed, and Li Yang still has great potential in terms of body and technology! As for where such a limit is, they can't determine it.

"Of course, we'll help you with your training for the rest of the day, but that's not part of the whole program, and the intensity won't be so high. With that emotion, Chad Fusier continued.

"Why can't you continue to train at high intensity?" Li Yang asked with some doubts: "I don't have any problems with my physical fitness. ”

Li Yang's fitness is indeed no problem, because he has not played many games in the past month or so, since the game against the Clippers, Li Yang has not played again in February, and in the thirteen games of the Spurs in March, Li Yang has only been allowed to play.

In the past month or so, the Spurs coaching staff has arranged for Li Yang to focus more on intensive training, and sometimes the away coaching staff will arrange for Li Yang to stay directly in San Donigno, with a lot less rush, plus Li Yang's physical fitness is already very good and his recovery ability is strong, so there is no problem with physical fitness at all.

"Because the next training place you're going to be is going to be the arena. After Li Yang asked, Chad Fusier did not answer, but another person who walked over answered, and the team's head coach, Mike Budenholzer, walked over at this time.

"Arena?" Li Yang looked at Budenholzer with some surprise, and the other party seemed to mean that he would have more opportunities to play next.

'Yes, Young, Manu's injury has been confirmed, he's going to be out for three or four weeks and we need someone to top up the line. ”

"That's bad news!"

Hearing what Mike Budenholzer said, Li Yang was not particularly excited, Ginobili was injured in the previous two days of the game, Ginobili has been plagued by injuries repeatedly this season, which is really not good news for the team, because the playoffs are less than three weeks away, which means that Ginobili will miss the rest of the regular season and will have to wait until the first round of the playoffs to return.

Li Yang was naturally happy to be able to play, but he didn't want it to come at the expense of the injury of the team's most important substitute, Ginobili.

Well, that's really bad news, so Pop has decided to take a large rotation off the team to make sure the players are healthy for the playoffs. Mike Budenholzer continued.

"So, Young, you're going to get a lot of playing time until the end of the regular season. We want you to be able to show your progress on the field, knowing that training is not the same as competing. ”

Li Yang nodded, of course he also knew that training and competition were not the same thing, and only through a few more games could a player's true level be tested.

"Young, come on, if you can do well in these next games, I think in the playoffs, pop will also give you more opportunities to play. ”

After Mike Budenholzer finished speaking, Li Yang couldn't help but raise his head in excitement.

The playoffs, that is the real place of the NBA, but also the battlefield for players to fight for the honor of the team, every year in the playoffs, there will always be some team heroes, to be able to get more opportunities to play on such a stage, is the expectation and glory of every player.

Of course, Li Yang also wants to be a part of it, and Li Yang also believes that Mike Budenholzer, as the team's head coach, can say such things to himself, which means that head coach Popovich also thinks this way.

The next few regular season games will be your chance!

Li Yang secretly told himself in his heart, and at the same time, he really wanted to see how his training had improved in the past forty days of training.

And the competition is undoubtedly the best way to test.
