Techniques: 61 ball control, 67 pass, 91 catch shot, 64 catch jump shot, 58 back shot…”

On the morning of December 22, after a day and one night of rest, Zhang Hao was driven by April Clark to Time Warner Stadium at 7:30.

After this away trip, Zhang Hao looked at his progress and it was obvious!

Although the ability evaluation has not reached 74, there are many small improvements. The shortened three-point points within the 45-degree angle on both sides is the two-point length of the top arc area close to the three-point line, reaching 80, which is a gratifying congratulations.

The pass has been increased to 67 and the ball control has reached 61. These two have been practicing, but they are too big, which is a problem.

He received the ball and shot 91, which is the recent learning of Reggie Miller's running rhythm. Combined with the detailed guidance of the legendary players before, Zhang Hao's catch shot successfully increased from 90 to 91.

After any technology reaches its top level, it becomes very difficult to make progress!

The back-shot jump shot has exceeded 50 unknowingly, reaching the level of the system's scoring.

After receiving the ball and turning the jump shot to the passing line, the progress slowed down.

Training time, competition experience...take your time.

After playing six consecutive away games, the Lakers had two days of rest and had no training schedules for two days. They would directly play against the Kings tomorrow and play the Christmas battle on the 25th. The two-day rest time was pure rest, which was for the previous wave of intense consumption.

But after Zhang Hao helped April Clark set up his home yesterday, he contacted James Worthy in the evening and strongly demanded that training start today.

Compared to the Nets trainers who were unhappy and wrote it directly on their faces, Pat Riley Times' old trainers who worked for the Lakers were so active in the morning. When Zhang Hao arrived at the arena, the trainers had already prepared all the preparations. After Zhang Hao stepped on the elliptical machine for a while, he began to help Zhang Hao move his muscles and joints to help Zhang Hao warm up for training.

Half an hour later, for the warm-up of the training, James Worthy had not arrived yet. The appointment was before 9 o'clock, Zhang Hao practiced for a while and then turned over and jumped.

I have been practicing this technique for two months, and Zhang Hao dared not think that he could understand it well, and he could be said to be very familiar with it.

But the more this happens, the less he dares to slack off. There is still a big gap between how he is going to do the movements when it is time to do the movements during the game, and his body is naturally driven by his muscle memory to make movements.

Just when Zhang Hao was practicing with motivation because of his own progress, a voice sounded: "Oh, Cool-guy, you came so early, I thought you could come a little earlier than you."

"Didn't I tell you, James, as long as he plays at home, whether it's a day off or not, Aix is ​​the first to come to the stadium for training."

"Stop talking about Erwin, I remembered the head coach. If it weren't for him, Karim might have been able to play in the finals before you retired, and we might have won the sixth championship."

"Haha, but without Pat, we may not be able to win those three championships."

"You make sense, but I remember that I still had nightmares when training at that time..."

The Magician and James Worcy are here.

Zhang Hao was about to stop training and greet the two of them. He glanced at the time. At 8:44... Then practice for a while and then say hello when the two of them have finished chatting.

The magician and James Worthy chatted and found that they seemed to have forgotten what they were going to do at the beginning. They looked at Zhang Hao, and Zhang Hao started another set of training.

James Worthy thought of what seemed to have seen Zhang Hao respectfully prepare to say hello, and asked uncertainly: "Is Aix afraid of disturbing our chat?"

"It should be so, I heard from Jerry that Aix was a little too polite."

"I feel the same way. In this regard, he... always feels that the distance he gives people is too strong, which doesn't make people feel annoying, but it's hard to make people want to get close to it."

"Jerry asked us to think of something, don't let Aix become like Karim."

"If you say that, I feel that Aix is ​​really a bit like Karim..."

The two started chatting again, but they haven't worked together for several years, so there are really many things they can talk about.

As they chatted, they found that there was a person in front of them, Zhang Hao. They turned around and looked at the clock on the wall at 8:59.

"Mr. Johnson, Mr. Worthy, can we start training?"

“…”

“…”

The two of them didn't know what to say, but they were really on time!

Then let's get to the point, James Worthy asked: "Aix, do you practice like this every day?"

"No, there won't be much training in season, but you have to train every day to keep feeling, but you won't stop learning."

James Worthy nodded. The young man still knows how to protect his body... This is more like Jabbar! He really wants to introduce the two to each other and see the scene where they sit together for a long time without saying a word.

"Okay, Elvin, you have to work hard today, Aix, Elvin helps you train today... Tsk tsk, you are the first person in this treatment!"

After saying this, James Worthy was finally satisfied when he saw Zhang Hao's reaction.

He saw Zhang Hao's eyes wide open, as if a light flashed and said to the magician: "Thank you for your help, Mr. Johnson."

Indeed, this treatment should not have been possessed by the Magician at least after entering the NBA, right?

In terms of scoring, the magician may not be proficient in any aspect, but the comprehensiveness is undoubtedly the best sparring practice, both with height and flexibility.

When the Magician went to warm up, James Worthy began to explain the defense to Zhang Hao: "In the past period, I have observed every game of yours. Before I came back, I have seen all the videos of yours during the Nets.

You have a huge misunderstanding. You pay more attention to defense awareness. That is not what you should consider now. When you defend, don’t think about causing the biggest interference to the opponent’s shooting, but make sure that you are between the opponent and the basket.

Your head may have learned how to defend, but your ability cannot be done. You are not even good at the most basic defense.

There are three stages of defense. The first stage is to become a defensive player who does not drag down.

The second stage is to combine defensive awareness and carry out effective defense on the premise of active efforts.

The third stage is that the body has instincts, and consciousness has become a habit. There is no need to think deliberately. There is no need to think for a moment. When the opponent makes movements, your consciousness has already made habitual decisions, and the body instinctively acts in accordance with the habitual consciousness.

Your current goal is to become a defensive player who does not drag down his legs. When changing defenses, defending alone, assisting defense, and making up for defense, you can be smoothly between the defensive target and the basket, increasing the difficulty of the opponent finding space.

Fortunately, your mobility is excellent, your confrontation is also very hard to defend.

Now, what we need to practice is some of the most basic things. The first thing you need to learn is the ability to judge the opponent's next move in the offense. The basics are the most difficult..."

"Now we are starting to practice foot movements under the basket. Your frame protection talent is excellent. If you don't need to move widely, stay in a fixed area, which greatly avoids the weaknesses you are easily deceived.

But you rely on athleticism and predictions of the players who break through. When you meet a player who plays well inside, you have a bad defense. The players who break through the game are most of the time. When you get to the basket, you don’t have the extra energy to make too many changes. You can make a lot of changes... It is also difficult for the best franchise protectors to defend them.

For players who play well in the inside, they have set their positions and have more room to operate.

This is important to move your footsteps at this time…”

After explaining it, James Worthy began to teach Zhang Hao a small step.

Zhang Hao listened seriously, learned seriously, and practiced more seriously. When he met a student like this, James Worthy taught more vigorously.

It doesn’t matter whether you can learn well, but if you study so hard, the ending will not be too bad.

After a while, the Magician had already exercised his body and started practicing low-post strong defense.

Following the two No. 1 picks, the Lakers' own camera crew was filmed from three angles and the actual training process was filmed.

There is not much confrontation during training. What Zhang Hao needs to learn is to judge the movement of the magician, practice the movement of the defense, and keep himself between the magician and the basket.

Even if it is next to each other, at such a close position to the basket, if the defensive player's body does not accurately block the offensive player and the basket and is occupied by the offensive player, it is equivalent to an open attack on the frame. At that time, we can only expect the opponent to have a bad shooting feel or a bad layup skill.

From 9:40 to 11:00, one hour and 20 minutes, the training time is 30 minutes. Every 10 minutes of practice, the recorded video will be taken out to explain...

...

"As a qualified basketball coach, the ability to guide the defensive end is indispensable. The host can start writing "Basketball Defense Basics" and consume a lifespan of 90 days. Is it turned on?"

“Open…”

"The host has obtained the basic knowledge and ability guidance of NBA history dislocation defense master James Worthy, and has begun to learn basic knowledge of defense.

Learning tasks: Basic Basketball Defense skills writing has been started.

Task objective: The host can improve his ability to guide players to learn basic defense skills through various methods such as learning, independent learning, and independent development. If the host's learning content has successful experience or is verified in the game, it will be entered into the learning mode database, and the host can deeply memorize it through the learning mode.

Mission reward: When the host improves the basic skills of defense in each position, if the player in different positions successfully guides the player to complete the basic skills of defense in the main position and meets the first stage of the defensive standard, when all five positions are completed, you can get a bronze medal misplaced defense master."

"The remaining life span is 493 days, and the available life span is 492 days."

Zhang Hao saw another book on the bookshelf in the living room, titled "Basketball Defense Basics".

Seeing that the remaining life span fell below 500 days... Zhang Hao's heart was so painful...

At this time, another death-hunting reminder has arrived.

"The host has received James Worthy's defensive guidance, moving the basket footsteps, assisting the position at close range... and other knowledge has been entered into the writing of "Basketball Defense Basics". Video information such as James Worthy's basket footsteps, assisting the position at close range... and other video materials can be opened. The simulated defensive training mode can be activated, each time consumed 1 day."

He was mentally prepared for this, and the same was true when he learned to support the pass with Alwan Adams.

"Practice, practice, only by giving up can you gain. I have been able to defend myself. Even if I just reach the level of not dragging my back, it will be of great help to the team, and I may win more games... Hey, wait, guide five players from different positions to complete the player's basic defense skills in the main position to achieve the level of not dragging my back..."

Zhang Hao didn't value this so much, and he couldn't be a coach for the time being. The only player signed by Wang Zhizhi was to help Wang Zhizhi defend. Even if Wang Zhizhi learned it, he would only have a perfect center position.
To be continued...
