Chapter 3: Point Guard
The game began with the whistle, and a staff member picked up the whistle and panted and acted as the temporary referee. The players on the field were divided into two teams, Zijin, wearing different team uniforms.
Instead, I paused and saw that no one was ready to come up and force it, so I slowly dribbled across the center line.
When he arrived on the court, Adrian's heart became extremely calm.
His dribble was not very good. Adrian originally had skillful dribbling skills, and his fancy basketball was dazzling. However, perhaps he suddenly took over this body, or perhaps because of the sudden increase in strength, he couldn't adapt. Adrian's ball control ability decreased a lot. Adrian spent two days to correct the smooth ball control, but it was impossible to make those fancy and beautiful extraordinary moves. In addition, the sudden power had a greater impact on shooting and passing, but for a while, Adrian had no choice but to adapt slowly.
The point guard of the Yellow team did not come up to force the defense fiercely. Perhaps he did not have the awareness, or perhaps he thought there was no need to do so. He put a loose defensive posture on the three-point line and waited for Adrian to pass. Adrian did not rush to break through. If it were the Adrian in the past, he had already done this now, but Adrian now knew that breaking through was definitely not the first choice for point guards.
Perhaps some point guards like sharp breakthroughs and pass balls, and like to use their quick breakthroughs to create offensive opportunities for teammates. But Adrian understands that that is definitely not the conventional playing style that point guards should use. It is undoubtedly unqualified to regard breakthrough as their first choice point guard.
After two or three seconds of cruising on the three-point line, the opponent who was defending Adrian became a little anxious. On the other side, the opponent who was defending Daldani took a step outward and was about to come and double-team Adrian...
Bang...
The sound of the basketball hitting the ground came crisply, with a slight deviation in the angle, but it still came to Dadani. Dadani stretched out his hand and caught the basketball. The person who defended Dadani had just moved towards Adrian at this time. Before he could change his movements, Dadani's face was empty.
Adrian remembers clearly that Dadani said that his shooting, especially the two wing positions, was very good, and was most confident at 45 degrees on the right. Now, Dadani is in such a position, half a step away from the free throw line.
"Swish~~~~~"
Without defense, Dadani easily hit a mid-range shot.
"Thank you." When he returned to defense, Dadani ran over and patted Adrian and thanked him. He was not ready to receive the basketball just now, but when he received the basketball, he felt very comfortable. There was no one around, and he took the shooting easily, just like shooting practice.
"It's nothing, it's your beautiful shot." Adrian said modestly. Indeed, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is just an ordinary pass, simple, direct, and even no skills can be seen. Anyone who sees it will feel that he can easily pass such a ball.
But Adrian understood what it was like when he just passed the ball. The entire court was in his eyes, and everyone's running route was clearly understood. Simple pass was the most deadly.
Compared to offensive end, Adrian was extremely relaxed on the defensive end.
There are many skills in defense. But in the final analysis, the only things that defense requires are Sanyo, body and attitude, and defense awareness.
Defense, especially one-on-one defense, does not require training, because specialized training will not have much effect. Adrian's lack of ball sense will not affect his performance on the defensive end, not to mention that although he does not have much gaming experience, as an excellent assistant coach, Adrian has the game awareness of being able to throw ordinary players out of several streets.
The opponent's point guard chose to go alone, after all, this determines that he can enter the NBA game, and everyone is eager to show themselves.
Adrian did not make any extra moves. When the opponent's point guard broke through, he keenly stuck the opponent's offensive route, and then forced the opponent to the sideline. His strong body allowed him to easily block the position and do what he wanted to do.
"Py~~~" the whistle sounded, crossing the line, and the ball rights exchanged. The confrontational point guard smashed the basketball unwillingly. Adrian just smiled softly and didn't say anything. He obviously didn't know that when he chose to break through, he had fallen into Adrian's defensive trap.
Back on the offensive end again, Adrian's stable ball control came to the three-point line, and was still cruising on the three-point line. Perhaps because Adrian had forced him to go out of the baseline before, he felt a big loss of face, the point guard of the Yellow Team actually chose to rush up to steal this time.
Adrian's ball control ability is indeed not very good at this stage, but his amateur and irritable movements allow Adrian to deal with it easily. The steal that completely lost his position allowed Adrian to make an easy change in front of the body and let go of the yellow team point guard's steal, and then dribble into the inside.
The Yellow Team's inside line came out. At the moment of his movement, Adrian threw the basketball into the sky. Behind him, a big black man like an iron tower soared into the sky. Grasping the basketball was like a strong framing with both hands!
"Ed, who passes beautifully, let a few such passes to let them see our skills." Levistan shouted exaggeratedly, obviously very satisfied with this violent dunk.
He is the standard black insider, with first-class physical fitness and very rough skills. He is already twenty-six years old this year. He has changed several teams, basically all the water dispenser guards, or plays as a foul machine when necessary. In addition to the NBA, he also plays in NBDL for a while, and usually he can basically be a defensive coolie. Such dunk opportunities are rare in him.
"You are Levi, let them see your muscles." Adrian smiled humbly and walked up to high-five Levi.
This ball attracted the attention of the assistant coach on the sidelines. Compared to the ordinary pass, which exerts consciousness to the extreme, this fancy aerial relay is easier to attract people's attention. Although such passing technology is actually relatively small, what is more important is to look at the level of tacit cooperation among teammates.
But this is indeed more likely to be overstated.
Just like shooting on the board and hit dunks are both two points. There is no doubt that everyone will think that dunks are more colorful, rather than monotonous jump shots. In fact, the result is two points, and playing jump shots on the board is even more energy-saving...
Back on the defensive end, the yellow team's point guard who was blown up twice by Adrian on the offensive end obviously wanted to get back the field. The assistant coaches next to their performance on the basketball court are always paying attention to whether they can get a contract in the upcoming new season. This game is very critical.
The yellow team's point guard who didn't know his name was indeed good at dribbling skills. The dribbling was done beautifully with several hand-changing hands under his crotch. However, when Adrian stuck his action route, this fancy dribble could not help him get rid of defense, and he could not get rid of several fake moves. Seeing that the attack time passed by minute by minute, it was almost twenty-four seconds before the violation was violated, and the basketball was still firmly held by him.
The assistant coach who was in charge of the training match on the sidelines could no longer help but shake his head.
Too unique!
In this kind of training competition, it is a big taboo.
The point guard who was forced by Adrian and could not break through finally chose to force his move. He did not try to block the block, but instead reached out to interfere. Even so, the basketball was still outrageous. In the end, the rebound did not hit it and flew out of the bottom line.
Chapter completed!
