Chapter 29 [After a day, look at it with admiration]
It's April Fool's Day again. At about six in the morning, Guo Xu got up and washed up, looked at himself in the mirror, his hair and eyebrows back, and it seemed that there was no difference from usual, but he knew very well that the time cycle had ended and he had to spend a good time today.
He asked Richardson to get up and go to the park to practice football together. His friends knew nothing, and their memories remained yesterday.
On the way, they saw the challenge slope and fell more than 500 times in a row. As usual, Guo Xu did not stop this person from committing suicide.
Guo Xu knew that he had fallen this time and was lucky. If he stopped it rashly, he might not be so lucky to challenge him again. Then he would become a harm to save people.
When he arrived at the park, Guo Xu practiced shooting at a fixed point outside the three-point line, and Richardson helped pass the ball.
He inherited the flexible wrists of his predecessor and had been practicing hard for more than a year in the NBA level. He was very sure of long shots in three positions. He also made quick moves without making too many adjustments. He shot without jumping to the highest point. He pursued speed, which at first glance seemed like pushing the ball out.
Guo Xu liked to shoot in this way in his previous life, and deliberately changed his shooting movements in the time loop. Like many short men who play jungle balls, he imitated Stephen Curry, the "Golden State Kato Eagle".
As a reborn person, Guo Xu knew the importance of the player's shooting speed. The famous pitcher Capono had poor other skills and had won the middle class by making a three-pointer shot.
Curry did a test and took 0.32 seconds to shoot in an emergency stop, and finally the ball was hollowed into the net. From preparing for the action to scoring, the entire process took 2.99 seconds. The average shooting speed of the league shooter given by ESPN is 0.54 seconds. It is not difficult to see that Curry's hand speed is definitely above the rest of the league.
What is 0.3 seconds? The time it takes for an ordinary person to blink is 0.3 seconds, which means that when you blink, Curry can complete a shot. This speed is really terrifying.
Although Guo Xu is not that far, he is still outstanding in the NBA now. There are few three-pointers in this era, and players do not pursue the ultimate shooting speed. Most team coaches regard "winning the championship with defense" and "the closer the basket, the higher the shooting rate" as the truth, and require the players to train to attack the penalty area and shoot in the middle.
Guo Xu's shooting point is currently low, so he depends on speed. His right foot is slightly in front of him. He tries to exert force as much as possible on his lower limbs to reduce waist thrusting, his body is upright, his shoulders are spread, and his body is controlled to coordinate. The left hand is used to fix the ball away from the ball at the moment of his shot. The force position is on the top arm, the elbow and shoulder level, and the ball is above the front of the head.
Guo Xu's shooting arc is very good, with a angle above 45 degrees, a large angle into the frame, and is prone to hollowness. Soon he made 100 three-pointers from various positions, and Richardson, who was responsible for passing the ball, was stunned.
"You can get in no matter how you throw it around? Yesterday you were in this state, Jack Lehman would never be able to defend you... No, you have never been so accurate!" Richardson couldn't believe that this was the same person.
"Martin and Morris can't defend me today, and you can't do it. Are you interested in fighting one-on-one?" Guo Xu said with a smile.
"Come on! You said I can't do it? Haha, don't blame me for smuggling your confidence later." Richardson smiled.
After 20 minutes, someone was indeed hit with confidence, and Richardson was going crazy.
Guo Xu knows Richardson's weaknesses well, that is, his horizontal movement speed is not fast enough, which makes him suitable for playing forward rather than shooting guard, and is easily changed to pass when facing fast outside players.
Guo Xu made a layup with various tricks. Richardson took a step and jumped when he was far away. He could do whatever he wanted. Richardson could not do anything if he attacked Guo Xu with his back. He just faced the frame and held the ball and attacked him, he was not Guo Xu's opponent.
After being passed again, he watched Guo Xu take a layup, Richardson shouted: "It's impossible... you can't be so powerful. Did you be captured by aliens last night and transformed?"
Guo Xu turned the basketball with his fingertips and smiled: "There is a Chinese saying that after three days, I will see you with admiration, do you understand?"
"You've only been one day..."
Guo Xu looked at his phone and it was getting late. "I suddenly got to know him. Let's go, let's have a meal."
Before leaving the stadium, the five children came forward to ask them for autographs. They witnessed their single-handed fight, and their eyes were full of awe when they looked at Guo Xu.
Guo Xu continued to perform well in the team training, and he beat Jack Lehman in a single match. He scored 13 points in a row in the beginning of the game, and Lehman, who was defending, made zero points in four shots.
Lehman was replaced after only 3 minutes of playing. Cliffs switched to the other side. Guo Xu continued to show his power, combined with sudden points and scored, and together with Richardson, he suppressed the White Team led by two fourth-grade players.
Whether it is Cliffs or Peterson's main defense, Guo Xu has a way to break through or take action in a one-on-one match, attracting double-teams and passing the ball, and can also assist teammates in scoring.
After playing for half an hour, Tom Izzo brought the starters to the team and arranged tactics for Guo Xu. He ran without the ball from the side and bottom line, received the ball and shot under the cover of the center, or looked for a misaligned opportunity to break through, pulling the defense line through running.
Guo Xu perfectly implemented the tactics, and the outside players who defended him chased and defended him a little slower. He had a high shooting percentage when receiving the ball. The opponent defended it in place, and he could also take the ball and attack, score by himself or create opportunities for his teammates.
At the end of the training, Guo Xu scored at least 30+20 data, which was unstoppable.
Coach Izo was shocked: "Are you possessed by the God of Basketball? You compared... not... it was completely different from when you were in the best condition before. In my impression, you would not play like this at all, and your physical fitness was not so strong."
"Actually, I used the latest stimulant in the morning. The drug seller said that taking it would make Tom Cruise Schwarzenegger turn into a drug test, but he would not pass the drug test." Guo Xu answered seriously.
"What?" Izo's eyes almost glared out.
"Hahaha, coach, do you believe it? Today is April Fool's Day." Guo Xu pointed at Izo with both hands and said with a smile.
"You little bastard." Izo also smiled and patted Guo Xu on the back.
As long as the player performs well on the court, Izo is a good-tempered coach, and it doesn't matter how you joke with him.
In the time loop, Guo Xu learned about Izo's personality. The two of them got better and better, and they often had dinner together. Izo gave Guo Xu a lot of advice, chatting with him about tactics and training. This is an admirable coach. In the future, Guo Xu will not forget this kind of kindness even if he leaves Michigan.
Izo asked the players to gather and announced their plans for tomorrow: "Tomorrow's game, Guo started, we played double guards, accelerated the offensive rhythm, and broke through the opponent's defense with fast breaks. Wisconsin is best at joint defense. Before their formation is placed, we must strive to complete the attack. Guo, can you maintain your current state?"
If it weren't for the stimulant use, Izo would be worried about him.
"I can maintain this state for the rest of my life, and I will only become stronger and stronger in the future." Guo Xu was not bragging. He cooperated with his teammates too well. Judging from his tactical proficiency, the fourth-grade students were also far behind him.
He understood the characteristics of each teammate, their preferences, and had chatted with everyone, including Jack Lehman. Lehman had been kidnapped by him more than a dozen times. One afternoon he pulled him out and beat him like a son...
