Chapter 370 Crazy fans, national team conflict?(1/2)
In addition to establishing a tacit understanding with his teammates, Chen Yan must also adapt to FIBA rules as soon as possible.
Compared with NBA, FIBA has many differences.
The game time of FIBA is 10 minutes in a single quarter, and the game time of NBA is 12 minutes.
The FIBA court standard is 28x15 meters, while the NBA court standard is 28.65x15.24 meters.
The NBA three-point line standard is about 7.25 meters (top of the arc), but the international basketball standard is 6.75 meters (top of the arc), so for those NBA stars who compete in the international arena, when they shoot three-pointers in the international arena, it is like
A long two-point shot is about the same.
Fiba's game ball is composed of 12 pieces of synthetic leather, while NBA's ball is composed of 8 pieces of leather. Fiba's game ball weighs 567~652 grams, while NBA's ball is about 624 grams.
The size of the penalty area in international arenas and NBA arenas is also different.
The size of the FIBA standard court penalty area is 4.9 meters x 5.8 meters, so the NBA is 4.88 meters x 5.8 meters.
Of course, the biggest difference between FIBA and NBA is the rules.
The NBA has defensive three seconds but FIBA does not. The so-called defensive three seconds refers to when a defensive player stands in the three-second zone to defend. If the referee determines that he "did not defend any specific offensive player", then
The defensive player cannot stand in the three-second zone for more than three seconds. If he continues to stand in the three-second zone, it will be regarded as a "defensive three-second violation."
The reason why NBA set up "defensive three seconds" is for the enjoyment of the game. Otherwise, if a bunch of big men are stuck in the paint and can't break through, and there won't be exciting dunks, will anyone watch this ball?
FIBA doesn't care about so much. On the one hand, they are more traditional and emphasize competitiveness. On the other hand, this is also the way for international teams to fight against the United States.
The monsters in the United States have excellent skills and incredible physical fitness. If there is no big man guarding the basket for a long time, they will probably be attacked 1v1 by them. At that time, the game will become an exhibition match for the American team.
To be honest, whether he defended for three seconds or not has little impact on Chen Yan, because a large proportion of his scoring comes from three-pointers and high-post jump shots after pick-and-rolls.
After entering the international arena, what Chen Yan has to do is to further increase this shot ratio.
But for some tank-type players whose shots are unstable and usually rely on their bodies to grind in, this rule is undoubtedly fatal.
...
...
After a 10-hour long flight, Chen Yan finally landed at the Capital International Airport.
The staff of the Basketball Association were ready to pick up the plane early, but what Chen Yan saw when he got off the plane was not the staff who came to pick him up, but a crowd of fans!
Chen Yan was initially planning to sign autographs and take photos with the fans, but after signing a few, he realized something was wrong.
There were more and more fans around him, swarming around him like a tide. There was almost no room to walk, let alone signing autographs!
Chen Yan and his parents could only stumble forward with the help of staff and security personnel.
"mvp!!"
At this time, I don’t know which fan shouted such a sentence.
This cry also triggered a chain effect.
"mvp!!!"
"mvp!!!"
"mvp!!!"
The roaring like a tsunami almost brought down the roof of the airport!
This is the first time Chen Yan has returned to China after joining the NBA. He did not expect that the fans would be so enthusiastic.
This caused Chen Yan to encounter various "double-teams" even outside the court!
Just when he left the airport, Chen Yan encountered the fans' crazy "full-court press"!
The opponents who "pressed" him included 6- and 7-year-old children as well as a lot of elderly people. They almost used all their strength to pursue Chen Yan.
The order at the airport seemed a bit chaotic in front of the madness of the fans.
Although the fans who gathered around did not get autographs or photos, most of them were not disappointed.
"Signing autographs for everyone? It's impossible. You won't be able to sign them all until the opening of the Olympic Games!" a fan said in an interview with reporters.
"Chen Yan is my idol. I came here just to take a look at him. As for taking photos and signing autographs, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"The airport is a public place. If you sign one by one, it will be chaotic, and Chen Yan won't be able to sign."
Although the fans expressed their understanding to Chen Yan, they were very honest physically and kept attacking Chen Yan.
In order to avoid being chased by fans, Chen Yan simply chose to leave the airport through the "back door".
But what he never expected was that Chen Yan avoided the fans, but not the airport staff.
Several ground staff and flight attendants who had just gotten off the plane were very excited when they saw Chen Yan!
In desperation, Chen Yan had no choice but to take photos with the staff and sign autographs.
Several flight attendants were very close to each other when taking a group photo, and some even secretly asked Chen Yan for his contact information.
Chen Yan's charm is not only on the court, a big boy like him, who is 190cm tall and well-dressed, is eye-catching wherever he goes.
Of course, Chen Yan's fame and money-making ability are his biggest plus points.
...
...
Early the next morning, Chen Yan rushed to the national team training hall without stopping.
He can't wait to join his teammates on the national team!
"Chen Yan, welcome to join the national team!"
In the training hall, Dayao took the lead in applauding to welcome Chen Yan.
Dayao is the boss and the absolute core of this team, and his statement is very important.
"Chen Yan, I've finally waited for you!" Director Du said with a smile.
"Xiao Chen, let's go drink and have skewers together when we have time!" Zhu Ba patted Chen Yan and said.
Teammates stepped forward to express their welcome to Chen Yan. Ah Lian came up and gave Chen Yan a gentle fist bump: "Finally I'm on the same team with you, haha."
"Didn't we play as a team in the rookie game?" Chen Yan immediately slapped him in the face.
Ah Lian scratched his head: "Sorry, I only played a few minutes in the rookie game and almost forgot about it."
Chen Yan patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, you will play for a long time in this national team, come on!
Ah Lian nodded: "Well, let's work together!"
Ah Lian is the player Chen Yan is most familiar with in the national team besides Dayao. The two of them had a lot of private exchanges when they were in the United States, so they are not strangers to each other.
The people who are most familiar with Chen Yan on this training ground are Dayao and Arab League, but the one who is smiling the most at this moment is the Chinese men's basketball coach Yunus who is smiling happily.
He looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally the player he looked forward to most came to him!
Yunus has been paying attention to Chen Yan's movements since he joined the NBA. The biggest headache for Yunus in coaching this national team is the position of the back line. It has insufficient impact, insufficient shooting, slow transition speed, and poor passing skills.
This is the long-standing root cause of the problem for Chinese men's basketball guards.
But the arrival of Chen Yan can be said to have perfectly made up for these shortcomings.
Yunus didn't say much. After a simple warm-up, he divided the players into two groups to compete.
Yunus watched Chen Yan play in the summer league, but it was already a year ago. Chen Yan has improved a lot this year. Yunus wanted to see his growth with his own eyes.
Yunus divided the 12 national team players Dayao, Dazhi, Ah Lian, Wang 7, Zhu 9, Chen Yan, Li Nan, Liu Wei, Sun Dasheng, Du Feng, Wang Lei and Zhang Qingpeng into two groups.
Chen Yan's rebirth also changed the fate of some players. Yunus did not recruit his former disciple Hua Zai.
Hua Tsai's biggest advantage is his speed and impact, but these two attributes are considered disadvantages compared to Chen Yan. In addition, Hua Tsai has no competition experience, so there is no need to bring him along.
The 5v5 intra-team training match will begin soon.
In the first offensive round after the jump ball, Chen Yan took two steps outside the three-point line to catch the ball and throw it directly.
"Whoa!"
Before anyone could react, the ball had already entered the net.
Looking at Chen Yan's expression again, he looked like he was playing.
Dayao looked at Chen Yan and smiled: "It feels good!"
Chen Yan spread his hands and said, "Just take it easy when you come up. Let's throw a warm hand at a distance first."
These words immediately stunned Wang Qi and Zhu Ba next to them.
Both of them are famous shooters in the national team, but I have never seen one with such a hot hand.
Chen Yan is not pretending, the FIBA three-point line is shorter than the NBA, so in the NBA, the shot from this distance is at best one step outside the three-point line, which is really not that far for him.
As the training match progressed, Chen Yan could clearly feel that the national team's defenders were competing with him.
Chen Yan, who is also of yellow race, just won the championship with the world's top team and won the FMVP, enjoying everyone's applause and praise.
They want to prove themselves by defeating Chen Yan in a training match.
The most obvious player among them is Sun Dasheng.
