"Dayao, are you planning to join the CBA this year?" Lao Wang asked.
"Yeah." Dayao nodded.
"This is the plan I gave you, you take a look first."
Lao Wang prepared a training plan for Dayao early in the morning, from technique to strength training, a complete set.
Gain weight slowly, like him, only gaining three kilograms every year, so that your body can best adapt to changes in weight and lay the best foundation.
He needs to carefully build Dayao's body and carve out good enough speed, jumping, strength, explosive power, coordination, flexibility and other qualities.
In terms of technology, he designed Dayao according to the path of the three super centers, but currently he only focuses on the training of basic skills.
Dayao's pace is good and flexible, and his shooting touch is comparable to that of outside players. The main template he gave to Dayao is Dameng. He even plans to take Dayao to the United States to learn from Dameng if he has the opportunity.
So the final weight gain goal he set was 130 kilograms.
Dayao's bones are not as strong as his, but as long as he follows his training plan slowly, in a few years, his bones will grow very strong, and the joints will become tougher and stronger, enough to bear a weight of 130 kilograms.
This tonnage, once you master Dameng's skills, you will be a large super center. It depends on whether Dayao's future growth can be carried out according to his design.
Among the kids in the summer camp, he also took a fancy to Dayao, a promising center. His other physical conditions were a little worse, so he put the most thought into it.
However, he still does not advocate Dayao joining the professional league now. It is too early. There is no need to start playing professionally at the age of sixteen.
How about taking Dayao to the NCAA?
Next, Lao Wang's main thing is to rest and give his body and spirit time to adjust.
But there are more or less trainings, one is weight gain training, he will complete the final weight gain this offseason, reaching 135 kilograms, and the other is explosive strength training.
The amount of these two trainings is not too large, and it can also keep his body in a certain state, so that he can return to normal condition faster after entering the national team.
In addition to these two systematic trainings, there is also the practice of plum blossom steps.
Now he only has 800 points left in his hand, and they have no other use for the time being, so he can only keep them for now.
On June 25th, Plum Blossom Step finally broke through to the third realm, which is to enter the palace. As long as it breaks through to the Xiaocheng realm, you can use points to synthesize skills.
As his plum blossom step reached the third level, some of his physical fitness and skills also improved.
In terms of physical fitness, what has been increased is coordination and balance. The former has been raised from level 92 to level 93, the latter has been raised from level 87 to level 89, and the potential level is the same.
In terms of technology, the low-level pace has been increased from 93 to 94, and there are no other changes.
However, I believe that as his pace level increases, some skills can be improved through daily training and competitions, and the system has also prompted this.
…
On June 27th, at the NBA headquarters in New York, Stern convened a meeting with all the league's owners. There was only one topic on the agenda: to introduce rules to restrict the old K before the draft on the 28th.
This requires the consent of all the bosses, so we took the opportunity of this draft to hold a meeting.
Things had been inevitable for a long time, so the meeting successfully completed the agenda. At noon that day, the NBA announced that a new rule would be implemented in the 1996/97 season.
This new rule is called the illegal shoulder rule, and the media calls it the K-Law.
The rules have dozens of clauses, including shoulder-use rules under various circumstances. These rules are not just for Wang Tiejun alone, but are explicitly for all players.
But in fact, there is an important clause in it. The illegal shoulder rule can only be triggered when a player attacks with the ball in the low post, that is, below the waist in the paint area.
In other words, above the waist in the paint area, how you played before is how you will play again in the future.
This clause is actually aimed at low-post players. If their post-playing position is above the waist, they will be double-teamed easily, and if they are below the waist, the rule will be triggered.
On the other hand, there are three main forms of low back strikes, namely back strikes, sitting strikes, and sideways strikes. This time, the K rule mainly targets the sideways strikes and does not target the other two forms.
The real back hitting mainly uses the back to exert force, such as O'Neal, and the sitting hitting uses the buttocks to exert force, such as Barkley. Only side hitting uses more shoulder force, such as Lao Wang, and the league mainly targets the same.
Hit sideways.
The reason why only side-by-side hits are limited is because Wang Tiejun's side-by-side hits are too lethal. No less than ten people were injured by his side-by-side hits. They are too intimidating. Look at the insiders of Postman and Bull.
Just know it.
Of course, it is not completely forbidden to use the shoulder. The main restriction is to use the impact of the shoulder to impact the defender's defensive position. If you just use your shoulder to push against the defender without exerting force, that is okay.
In the previous rules, the use of the shoulders was also restricted, but it was not as strict as this rule.
After a player violates this illegal shoulder use rule during offense, the referee can make a penalty according to the situation, which can be a violation or an offensive foul. Under normal circumstances, it is a violation. If a defender is knocked down with his shoulder, an offensive foul can be awarded.
Wang Tiejun is of course the most restricted, followed by O'Neal, and at least the other three super centers are not subject to much restrictions.
Dameng didn't use that kind of tyrannical back attack, but used fantastic footwork to win.
Robinson mainly faces the basket and rarely plays behind the back.
Ewing plays more post-up, but he doesn't have the tough post-up like Lao Wang. His free kicks and jump shots allow him to quickly get rid of defenders, and the restrictions are not great.
The response to the promulgation of the rules was quite large.
In the past four seasons, Lao Wang has been wreaking havoc across the league with his extremely ferocious play. He has injured countless players, and the Bulls have suffered greatly. The introduction of this rule has been criticized by almost the entire league.
welcome.
When Jordan accepted a phone interview with the media, he first said: "Congratulations, Old K, this is the treatment you should enjoy."
"Michael, how much restriction do you think the new rules will impose on Lao K?" the reporter asked.
"Um……"
Jordan thought for a while and said: "His physical talent is not as good as O'Neal, and this rule strictly limits his playing skills. I think under this rule, his strength will drop below O'Neal.
But more importantly, he will lose most of his lethality against opponents, and all post players in the league should be grateful for the introduction of this rule."
Retired superstar Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said in an interview with the media: "I think Old K will lose his lethality because of this, and the penalty area sweeper will no longer exist."
Postman Karl Malone said excitedly in an interview with the media: "Many media say that his era has arrived, but I don't think so. The era of behemoths has not yet appeared, and it will die young because of this rule. He is no longer so scary.
."
"Old K will become a mortal from now on." David Robinson said when facing the media.
"Poor old K, the league has sealed his strongest skill, which is a very bad thing for him. But he has already won two championships and signed a super contract of nearly 200 million US dollars. In his lifetime,
That's enough." Dameng told the media.
Everyone thought that the new rules would impose huge restrictions on Wang Tiejun, but Barkley said when facing the media: "I don't think this rule can lock Old K. He is a real behemoth. This rule will at most
He has gone from an unbeatable giant to a super giant. Yes, his strength will regress to the level of a super giant, so pitiful!"
"Damn it, old K, I've been implicated by you." After learning the new rules, O'Neal roared sadly and indignantly.
The fire at the city gate affected Chi Yu, and he was deprived of 20 to 30% of his strength. He couldn't use it while leaning on his side. It was too bad.
In anger, he didn't care that it was still late at night in China and directly started calling Lao Wang's mobile phone.
"Didi..."
Lao Wang was woken up and looked at the time. It was three in the morning.
"O'Neal, are you out of your mind?" Afraid of waking up Yu Feihong, he quickly ran to the bathroom with his cell phone and then answered the call.
"Old K, congratulations, the K rule is in place." O'Neal hummed.
"What's the rule?"
Lao Wang didn't react at once.
"Limit your rules, you idiot." O'Neal cursed.
"Oh, has it been announced? Idiot, please tell me what the rules are?" Only then did Lao Wang understand.
"No idiot would tell you, ah, you are the idiot..." O'Neal cursed after reacting.
The two chatted for a while, and O'Neill only briefly talked about the content of the rules. There were too many clauses to remember.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Wang Tiejun received a notice from the Suns and learned the specific content of the illegal shoulder use rule.
"Does this waste half of my strength?"
It would be a lie to say that he doesn’t have headaches. His strong support cannot help but involve the use of his shoulders, especially sideways hits, which basically require the use of shoulders. As long as the referee is willing, ten back hits can call him seven or eight violations.
.
For example, when he is double-teamed at the basket, he often uses chain leaning strikes, which often include leaning sideways. Although there is no shoulder-sinking action, there is some use of the shoulders.
There are also a lot of sideways hits in low back shots, which can no longer be used now.
Fortunately, he still had a trump card, so he wasn't too panicked.
"System, exchange it for a skill optimization card, and let me optimize my skills according to the new NBA illegal shoulder use rules."
"yes."
The skill optimization card is worth 500 points, and he still has 800 points in hand, which he can use just in time.
The Olympics are coming soon, and the rules of international basketball are different from those of the NBA. His back-up play is too strong, and there may be fouls in some places, so he has optimized his back-up play technique.
Soon, the optimization of the low-post back-up technology was completed, and a new low-post back-up technology was generated. The level is 92, which is two levels lower than before.
Fortunately, he was only downgraded to level two, and he was a little lucky.
The new low-post back-fighting technique, regarding Tieshan's technical movements of relying on fighting, has optimized the use of those shoulders, added back arches and sitting strikes, the offensive method is no longer so tyrannical, and the feints and technical comparisons have been enhanced.
It was more flexible before, and the damage to opponents was greatly reduced, but the physical energy consumption should also be reduced a lot, it was just a loss and a gain.
However, his offensive efficiency will definitely drop, and I don’t know how much it will drop.
In addition, his overall low-post and close-range offense dropped from level 91 to level 90, and his offense at the basket dropped from level 99 to level 97.
The decline in overall strength shows that the introduction of this rule has indeed limited his strength.
Now I just hope that the plum blossom will be a small success. I believe that by then his strength will have greatly improved and his playing style will truly change.
At this time, he suddenly realized that he had overlooked something, so he quickly asked: "System, do my hooks and punches also need to be optimized?"
These two offensive finishing techniques are exclusive signature skills, including the low post technique. Now that the low post technique has changed, these two techniques will definitely be affected.
"Yes, the host needs to optimize these two technologies."
"Sorry, what should I do if I don't have points?"
He frowned, but there was nothing he could do, so he asked tentatively: "System, aren't there any rewards for participating in the Olympics?"
"have."
"That's good."
He breathed a sigh of relief and decided to report earlier.
…
At this time, on June 28, in New York, Madison Square Garden, the NBA draft entered into a rhythm.
The owners and general managers of each team came to the scene, and a large number of rookie candidates also entered the scene nervously.
At the front, there are several rows of green seats, which are the so-called small green rooms.
League officials will invite some rookies to the Little Green Room based on their predicted draft positions. Generally, these rookies will become lottery picks.
At this time, more than ten invited rookies, their managers, and family members entered the small green room one after another.
Iverson, Marbury, Ray Allen, Camby, Raheem, Antoine Walker, Dampier, Nash, Kobe, etc., are all in the little green room.
"Kobe, K is your master. The Suns have the 13th pick, will they pick you?" Marbury sat next to Kobe and asked in a low voice.
This kid has a cool hairstyle today. He has a round haircut and shiny hair oil, which makes him particularly eye-catching.
Kobe had a clean shave today and wore cool sunglasses. Hearing Marbury's words, he said with certainty: "Of course."
Then he added: "I will definitely not fall out of the lottery."
Finally, he added: "You guys, when I join the Suns, we will be able to compete for the championship next season. When old K is dead in a few years, I will take over his hand and take charge of the Suns and continue to compete for the championship. And you
I can only stay in the pit and struggle."
"Ah owe!"
Just as Wang Tiejun was about to have breakfast, he sneezed.
"Damn high school student!" Dampier glared at Kobe and cursed.
Kobe didn't care and said: "The pick doesn't mean anything. I believe that I am the best one here, so I chose to skip college and bring my talents directly to the NBA."
"Smelly high school student!"
Now there are even more dissatisfied people.
Iverson was sitting in the middle of the front row. At this moment, he couldn't help but look back at Kobe Bryant in the second row. This kid is crazy. Why do you think so?
Don't think that there are any benefits to following Old K. That kind of championship-level strong team has no room for you as a rookie to train and grow. Everything is based on Old K. You will be suppressed by Old K and become a waste. In the end, you can only become a
A pure 3D defender who has completely lost himself.
"Kobe, stop talking."
Seeing Kobe's public outrage, Nash, who was sitting on the left, kindly reminded him.
Kobe hummed twice and was too lazy to speak.
He is not afraid of these people. A real strong person is not afraid of competition at all. If he is given a chance, he will dare to pull down the old K, let alone these rookies in the same class?
Behind the small green room, there are some team owners and general managers, as well as their assistants, who are dizzyingly busy at this time, making final preparations for the draft.
"Mr. Colangelo, I received the news that the Warriors' No. 11 signing is in the hands of the Lakers."
"What?"
At this moment, little Colangelo received very bad news.
Although he wants to find an immediate player for the No. 2 main position, this is only of a transitional nature. It is best for him to train one, so he must get Kobe. He can train it for two or three years at most, and it will be of great use. After the trial training
, he believes that Kobe has this potential.
In fact, the reason why we kept the No. 13 pick and traded the No. 20 and No. 29 picks was to prepare for this. We wanted to select a potential shooting guard and develop it ourselves.
And now this news reminds him that the Lakers are very likely to intercept Kobe Bryant.
"Is the news reliable?" he asked quickly.
"The news came from a Warriors staff member, saying that the Lakers traded Divac for him," the assistant said.
Colangelo's brows were furrowed. This would be troublesome. If Kobe Bryant is intercepted, there won't be any good prospects among the remaining shooting guards.
While he was worrying, David Stern stepped onto the stage and the draft began.
