Chapter 250 249. Michael is so stingy!

On the second day after the first round, Zhang Yang truly felt for the first time how terrible the public opinion about a playoff loss was.

He himself has experienced being eliminated in the playoffs - losing to the Detroit Pistons in the second round of his rookie year.

But after they were eliminated that time, they were praised by the media and fans. There were even many people who said that the selection of the best rookie was unfair and believed that he deserved the best rookie award more than Paul.

In the second year of the team's establishment, they made it to the playoffs and even reached the second round, which was a sensation at the time.

Only the fans of a team that they defeated in the first round abused and ridiculed him for no reason.

He won the championship in his sophomore year and won the FMVP at the age of 19, breaking Magic Johnson's record. Needless to say, the public opinion was very positive.

But he was eliminated from the playoffs at the age of 25, and even though he averaged 35+ points per game, he was still criticized to pieces.

But there was also a joke - if Jack could score 50 points in every game, the Lakers could sweep the Thunder.

Zhang Yang felt touched. Isn't it okay to brag occasionally? And he won by 50 points!

This experience is still very...new to Zhang Yang?
Although he was very annoyed by being scolded, he did not have too many negative emotions. He was about to go back anyway, and he would continue to be scolded here.

But he was very puzzled. Why didn't he go back immediately this time? Was it because they wanted him to feel this kind of public opinion environment and accumulate experience for self-adjustment in the face of surging public opinion after losing in the future playoffs?
But when he went back, this memory was sealed!

Only the skills learned and the feelings of playing games can be brought back directly from the experience. Other memories must be actively recalled in order to be "remembered". This is said to be to prevent the memories of multiple timelines from affecting his own life.

Let him recall his failures more often, and reflect on himself three times a day? He must have a brain seizure to actively recall the memory of being scolded!
The next day, on the morning of May 5, Zhang Yang woke up and saw that he had not returned yet. He was wondering why he had not returned yet after being scolded all day, when Nash called him and asked him to train together... Actually, he wanted to teach him techniques.

Zhang Yang finally understood why he didn't go back immediately this time - he only had one hour to learn from Nash this time, the playoff opponents were too difficult and the time was too tight, and except for the first day he arrived, he had no time to learn afterwards!

This time his inner voice: Amen, Yang Yang loves you!

...

Two and a half days of study passed quickly. After finishing the study on the afternoon of May 5, Zhang Yang was discussing with Nash which restaurant to go to for dinner in the evening. Suddenly, he felt sleepy and knew that this experience was about to end.

As usual, he reviewed this experience. This was the first time he took the lead in the experience. According to the current situation of the 10 timeline and the 80 timeline, he might have to take the lead in the future... No, not only the experience, but also for himself, with Gerald Wallace leaving, he would have to take on the responsibility of the forward and guard line.

Soon, his eyes went dark and he fell into a deep sleep...

At 2007:7 am on July 16, 6, Zhang Yang woke up from his sleep and stayed in bed for two minutes. When the alarm clock rang, he reached out and clapped his hands, then sat up.

The 'yesterday' in his memory at this moment was just two days of eating melons from the free market... It was not until the 'Gate of Experience' popped up that he remembered that he had started the experience before going to bed last night.

The scenes of learning techniques from Nash come to mind.

There are also the feelings of playing 6 important games... But they are just feelings. If I don't actively recall them, there will be no pictures in my memory.

He remembered the learning scenes very clearly and could practice them directly, but he planned to communicate with legendary trainer Grove and top shooting coach England before formal training, and let the two help him optimize and adjust the training to suit him.

After all, his physical conditions are too different from Nash's. When he first started training, he didn't feel anything strange, but as his skills reached a certain level, the feeling of incoordination would always appear. It would be more difficult and time-consuming to adjust at that time.

Zhang Yang had suffered such a loss before, and now that he had the conditions to avoid it, he certainly would not ask for trouble.

Zhang Yang took the initiative to recall the memories of studying with Nash. Two and a half days was not a long time, and he learned a lot, but also a lot.

Although Nash had previous teaching experience and knew that he could just cram everything into Zhang Yang's head, he didn't teach randomly. He analyzed each move as thoroughly as he could, and taught every movement, every detail of the force, and practical experience as detailed as possible, demonstrating repeatedly. Only after Zhang Yang had memorized them did he teach the next move.

Of course, this teaching method still shocked Kobe's view of basketball...It turns out that this is how to teach people to play basketball!
Nash only taught three scoring techniques - step-back shot, shot after a screen, and step-over layup after breaking into the inside.

These three moves are often used by Nash himself. Zhang Yang also knows these three moves, but not Nash's version.

He learned to shoot with the help of screens from Ginobili; he learned to shoot with a step back from Hamblen and Harden; and he figured out the step-over layup by himself after watching Parker and Iverson play.

According to Nash, teaching him these three moves was to give him an additional reference so that he could further optimize these three moves.

Zhang Yang recalled this and felt that what Nash said seemed to be fine and reasonable. Taking the best of many schools and combining it with one's own actual conditions was the right way to polish the technical details, but he always felt that Nash had other ideas...

That’s right, Nash’s scoring technique is floor flow, floor flow, and floor flow!

The scoring techniques of Ginobili, Harden, Iverson and Parker are generally more dependent on physical fitness. Nash's three skills require speed, but other aspects mainly rely on rhythm. He is truly a rhythm master.

They are teammates of Kobe. Although he dislikes Kobe, he actually wants to learn Kobe's tricks. Nash's flirtation is very handsome, but Kobe's beauty is more handsome...

When recalling the memories of studying with Nash, Zhang Yang felt that Kobe was willing to teach him, but Kobe only watched Nash teach him training for a long time, and went to Germany for conservative treatment of his knees and shoulders the next day. He can only wait until next time.

He should renew his contract with the Lakers, right? The Lakers need to find a successor for Kobe, a big city, a big contract, and a better business market...

It took less than a day to learn these three moves, and the remaining day and a half was used to learn various breakthrough techniques, which is what Nash said - since you started playing basketball too late and do not have the ball sense that other NBA guards have naturally acquired after playing for more than ten or twenty years, then you should learn all kinds of breakthrough techniques that you can and cannot learn, and practice all the breakthrough moves that you are good at and not good at.

Nash said: "I think your ball-handling talent is absolutely top-notch. You have been playing for less than ten years and your ball-handling talent is better than most point guards in the NBA. It's just that you don't just want to be better than most point guards, but to be the best, which is why you feel anxious about it." Nash didn't guarantee whether this method would work, and Zhang Yang didn't know either, but it was a way after all, and learning more breakthrough methods that he didn't know before would also help him strengthen his one-on-one breakthroughs.

Well, when he recalled Nash's breakthrough teaching, he felt that Mr. Nash was "not doing his job properly".

Breakthroughs with changes of direction in front of the body, crossover steps, Iverson-style long-distance pull-up breakthroughs, quick dribbling followed by a change of direction dribble between the legs, Rondo's stealing steps, various ways of breaking through with the help of screens, and even street-style breakthroughs... Zhang Yang feels that there is no way of breaking through that Nash doesn't know!
Nash's usual way of breakthrough, even when he was at the peak of his athletic ability with the Mavericks, was to take advantage of the difference in rhythm and seize the gaps. The breakthrough could be as simple as it could be. I didn't expect that he could use all kinds of breakthrough methods and even controlled all the details... Even though my body only allows me to be a local, it does not prevent me from having a heart that can do anything?

Is it the same as when you are only suitable to play support, or choose a mixed top laner, but you still have the desire to use E as always and the dream of using R to flash?
Zhang Yang put the matter of training aside for the moment and looked towards the 'Gate of Training'.

There are two tasks. The optional task was completed, but the basic task failed, and I missed the opportunity to gain the "fade-away" experience that seems to be related to Kobe.

This was his first time failing in a training exercise...he felt very complicated.

He opened the experience gains section and looked at the new experience gains he had obtained.

"Death (Primary): Killer's Instinct. When the game time is less than or equal to 24 seconds, and your team is trailing by less than or equal to 3 points, and you have the ball, your physical strength will be temporarily restored to its best state."

It is extremely practical, but the probability of activation is very low.

First of all, it is only possible to activate it in the last 24 seconds, and the team must be trailing by 3 points or less and have possession of the ball. That is, if the team is leading by 1 point at the last moment and needs him to make a key shot to lock in the victory, then all this experience will be useless.

If the team is trailing by 5 or 7 points, and wants to use this trick of fouling after scoring a goal and then shooting again, or scoring 24 points in 8 seconds or something like that, it's simply impossible and will not be activated at all.

Of course, if all these conditions are met, it will greatly improve his ability to hit the key ball in the final attack.

But will the effect be improved after upgrading?
Hey! The words on the door have changed!

"The Death God level is divided into two levels: primary and advanced. After reaching the advanced level, it can be triggered on the defensive end. In the last 24 seconds, when the lead is less than or equal to 3 points and in the defensive round, the physical strength will be temporarily restored to the best state."

This time, there is a hint of the upgrade effect!
Zhang Yang took a look and found it very practical!

But the activation probability is also very strict. If the lead is 4 points, it cannot be activated.

Moreover, the advanced version will not be of much use even if he upgrades now. It will only be useful after his physique becomes stronger and his defensive muscle memory is trained.

However, the training mode can be used directly, especially in the 10th timeline. He started with defense and his muscle memory of basic defensive skills is perfect. He beat the fourth-year Harden in one-on-one defense. It's a pity that his teammates who defend pick-and-roll are too weak to help him slow down Harden's speed after the screen...

...

After getting up, Zhang Yang went to the study to check the news as usual.

The shocking news of Yao Ming joining the Bulls and the shock of the Lakers' Big Three are still continuing, but the soap opera of where Pierce and Ray Allen will go has just begun.

Zhang Yang also saw that Bibby had become one of the stars who applied for a trade. The 29-year-old Bibby couldn't wait any longer.

But the Kings do not want to dismantle the team and rebuild. Their management is very confident in the quartet of Bibby, Kevin Martin, Artest and Brad Miller, hoping to attract a superstar inside player to join.

Zhang Yang thinks that the dream of the Kings management is good. This quartet is indeed quite attractive. If a superstar comes, it may take off. But it seems that no big-name inside players are free agents or will become free agents at the moment, right?
If they were to be traded, these four would be the four players with the most trading value on the Kings. Together, they could probably be traded for a superstar center?
Don't say it, don't say it, if Duncan and Garnett were both on the Spurs, and the two were about to fight for the No. 21 jersey, Popovich might have used Garnett alone to trade for these four players.

Zhang Yang couldn’t understand the Kings management’s train of thought - no matter what the actual situation is, I am confident that I can attract a superstar inside player to join?
But think about it, the Kings let Evans, who averaged 20+5+5 as a point guard in his rookie year, play as a shooting guard in his sophomore year and as a small forward in his junior year, and then ruined him... It's normal for the Kings to have such confidence.

At 8:, Zhang Yang arrived at the gym more than an hour earlier than the agreed time. He first practiced the techniques he learned from Nash, such as step-back shooting, shooting with the help of screens, and step-over layups, to get a little familiar with them.

Improving ball control is the second goal this summer. The primary goal is to improve technique, shooting, and physical fitness.

Helping players improve their physical fitness is the greatest ability of legendary trainer Grof. In Jordan’s words, “Without Tim, I wouldn’t have won my second three consecutive championships.”

This was agreed upon last summer. Last year, Zhang San was too young to practice this. This summer, he can start training in this area. Of course, the order of training techniques and shooting comes before physical training. After all, he is just starting... Zhang Yang feels that he will become Tim Grove's long-term meal ticket for the next decade or so.

At around 9 o'clock, Felton, who went to California for a two-week vacation, and Rondo, who started shooting training with the help of Engelland last week, also came to the training ground.

The three talked about Gerald Wallace's departure and sighed...but those who left have left, so the topic was not discussed for too long and returned to the training camp itself.

Zhang Yang: "Are there only three of us in this training camp?"

The Fat Know-It-All: "Aaron and Paul are playing in the summer league. They are not eligible to enter Jordan's training camp yet."

Zhang Yang: "What about Emeka?"

Felton: "I went to Oakley training camp. Emeka's defense improved so much last season. If he was put at the center position, he could replace Ben Wallace and be selected for the second defense. Oakley's special training was a great help to Emeka."

Zhang Yang: "Why do I feel like Michael is stingy and doesn't want to spend money? I heard that Tim charges per person. Look, the two of us didn't go to the summer league."

Felton: "It's possible... Michael is really stingy!"

Rondo: "..."

No, how can you two bring up this topic? Jordan is good to you two, right?
Kobe Bryant paid for his training with Grove at his own expense!
