Chapter 93 This reminds me of a certain James(1/2)

Benita did not go to Los Angeles with Sun Hao in the end.

According to Rasau, Benita doesn't like the climate there very much.

After staying in New York for two days, Sun Hao sent his parents on the plane back home.

Yi Jianlian followed Lasso to Spain.

"You'll love it there."

Before leaving, Sun Hao jumped up and patted Yi Jianlian on the shoulder.

He really hopes that Yi Jianlian can play in Europe as soon as possible.

After seeing everyone off, Sun Hao boarded the plane to Los Angeles.

Although he hasn't reported to the Mavericks yet, he is already playing as a Mavericks player.

Summer League.

Sun Hao unconsciously saw the scene when he watched the summer league in Las Vegas in his previous life.

It was 2009, and a "child who looks only 12 years old" (commentary of the American Sports News) emerged.

Stephen Babyface Curry.

He still remembered that game. Curry scored 6 three-pointers in one game, and was proficient in chasing, catching the ball, and pulling it out.

I don't know how I will perform in the summer league.

After arriving in Los Angeles, Sun Hao transferred to Long Beach and then went to the hotel first.

Unlike where he spent money before, the team stayed in a hotel with two people and one room, and the environment was very bad.

Most of the people who play in the summer league are rookies and marginal players, and many of them cannot play with the NBA, so such conditions are reasonable.

Harvey and Alexander were separated in the same room, but his roommate had not arrived yet when Sun Hao arrived.

There was not even a TV in the room, so he took out his cell phone and started playing with the greedy snake.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and a slender and green face appeared at the door.

Sun Hao was stunned when he saw him.

Because of this person, he actually knew him!

In the NBA, there have been many Kobe Terminators. Every time I seal my face, I rarely really defend Kobe Bathir, and Tony Allen, who is called the strongest defender by Kobe...

Another one is Lagar Bell, who became famous in front of him.

Sun Hao didn't expect that Bale was also a member of the Mavericks' summer league!

However, Bale was not the one who was selected for the defense for a while in the future. He was just a simple undraft.

In 1999, Bale was not interested in participating in the draft, and has been playing in the Development League since then.

Then, like most undrafts, they participate in the summer league year after year, seeking the opportunity to get an unsecured contract.

When Bell came in, he was stunned for a moment, said sorry, and then stepped out.

But after he confirmed the room number, he walked in again.

"You're from the Mavericks?"

Obviously, he didn't expect the Mavericks to have a yellow player.

This is his second year in the summer league, but this is his first time.

Sun Hao nodded.

Confirm that he was not wrong, Bell didn't say anything else and started to put his own things.

After the release, he went out in his jersey.

Sun Hao put down his phone, and Bell looked a little introverted.

But he didn't think much about it, and then entered the system to start training.

Before the training began, he looked at the location of the system store again.

Whether it is a beverage area or a equipment area, you need something called honor point when purchasing.

This honor point is similar to the currency in the system, and there is only one way to obtain it, the competition.

As for how much to obtain, the system has a very rigorous set of mathematical formulas. After reading it, Sun Hao felt that the mathematical level of mathematics teaching in mathematics could not be understood.

However, the general conclusion can be drawn is that the higher the game, the better the performance, the more honor points you will get.

The level of the summer league is not high, so if you want to get honor points, you have to play a strong enough performance in the summer league.

He does have this opportunity, too.

Teams in the summer league are generally divided into second-year players, rookies, undrafters or free agents.

Among them, second-year players and players with guaranteed contracts will be the focus of the coaching staff's inspection.

After all, these players and teams have contracts, and their performance is what the home team pays most attention to.

Sun Hao's chance is a second-grade player.

Most sophomore teams, after playing in the NBA for a year, are much better than rookies in physical confrontation, skills, tactics, and even psychological qualities.

So what happens often in the summer league is that second-year players are playing thighs and scoring points wildly.

However, the Mavericks...have no sophomore players.

Last year, the team chose two rookies, one was Wang Zhizhi and the other was Gordon Gillisek.

Both are overseas players. Wang Zhizhi cannot get out of China, and Girisek has been staying in Europe.

So this Mavericks is their rookie Big Three, plus some free agents and undrafted team.

This is the best opportunity.

Sun Hao trained in the system for a long time.

The increase in time ratio really greatly improves his training time.

I practiced in the system for more than two hours, and only about forty minutes passed when I came out.

The team arranged for the first joint training in the afternoon. He went out to eat something, rested for a while, and then went to the training hall.

The head coach of the Mavericks this summer league is Delma Harris, the "Silver Fox" Harris, who is well-known to fans.

Harris is over 60 years old and has been in his 3rd year.

Although he is now an assistant coach for the Mavericks, his coaching career is also full of legend.

He coached Houston as soon as he debuted, and in 1981, he led the team to the finals in the third year of coaching.

Later, he followed Old Nelson to the Bucks and became the team's head coach after Old Nelson left.

Later, he traveled to Los Angeles and was elected the NBA coach of the year in 1995, helping the Lakers build the foundation of the ok dynasty.

Finally, he returned to Old Nelson's coaching staff and became the team's chief assistant coach.

Sun Hao doesn't know all about these resumes, but his impression of Harris is more of a national team.

At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Harris became the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team.

He led the Chinese men's basketball team to defeat the world's No. 1 Serbia and Black team at that time and reached the quarterfinals of the Olympics.

With this history alone, he is enough to be remembered by the Chinese people.

Of course, his relationship with the Chinese men's basketball team is much more than that.

Because of his good relationship with Wang Zhizhi and the Basketball Association, when the "Wang Zhizhi's No Return" incident occurred, he was able to mediate the conflict between the two sides.

Even Harris has made a lot of efforts to choose Yi Jianlian in the future.

As you slowly understand the talent show of this era, you will find that it is full of stories.

Harris is also the first head coach to question the men's basketball team's material selection system.

"The Chinese sports department has always focused on cultivating tall players, so there are many good players between 2 meters and 10 meters and 2 meters and 25 meters, but we lack guards between 1 meters and 83 meters and 1 meters and 90 meters. Even the national team's current defenders need to improve their skills."

This was what Harris said to the media at that time.

"The strength of Chinese defenders is shooting and passing, but their breakthrough skills are not professional training. How to find the gap and complete the mid-range jump shot during the dribble is what they need to learn. Yunas's first task in China is to improve their personal abilities at mid-range positions."

Even before leaving office, he gave Yunas advice.

Looking back at these suggestions can be said to be quite professional and to the point.

But until Sun Hao's era, this problem was not taken seriously and solved.

"I won't ask you to run any complicated tactics. I just need you to do two things in the next week, do every defense and seize every opportunity."

Harris's voice pulled Sun Hao back from his thoughts.

Harris didn't say much about tactics, what he taught and asked for was the most detailed thing in the game.

For example, defensive footsteps, shooting hand shapes, and pick-and-roll focus on dismantling rather than blocking.

The old man with silver hair, Dundu teaching.
