0025: Michael Beasley
So, the puppy stood at the free throw line and he began to try to shoot.
He moves very slowly, because shooting from under the basket is completely different from the amount of effort required to shoot at the free throw line, which requires a recalibration and power rehabilitation.
Fortunately, the hit rate is not bad.
With a 50 percent shooting rate from the start, it's hard to believe that this is his first systematic free throw drill.
Ben Holland scrutinized the puppy's palm fingers, and compared to his clumsy body control, his fingers were simply a gift from the Creator, and their flexibility was stunning.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
The puppy hit four free throws in a row.
Ben Holland personally stood under the basket to feed him, and although the puppy's shooting action was very slow, he hit the ball well.
"Snoopy, you're literally made for basketball. If everybody stands still and plays basketball, I'm sure you're the most talented player I've ever seen. Ben Holland exclaimed sincerely.
When the puppy heard this, he looked at him with a very helpless gaze: "Maybe you should tell me the news after the invention of this sport." ”
Ben Holland laughed.
He likes the feeling of being with puppies, who are neither like those honest children who obey their orders, nor are they the kind of gifted teenagers who are flying and domineering. He always looks at everything very calmly and equally, takes his training seriously, never says anything attention to the hype in the dressing room, and he gets along well with everyone. This made Ben Holland think from the bottom of his heart that it was more comfortable to deal with high-achieving students who were admitted to UCLA based on their academic performance.
Leon Bob's arrival caused the puppy to stop free throw training, and he took the puppy to the power room, where he was hung upside down after a simple warm-up.
This time, it took only 19 minutes for the puppy to puncture all the balloons.
This delighted Leon Bob, who couldn't wait to tell Mr. Ben Holland: "I've made historic progress in my training, Snoopy improved by 11 minutes yesterday. ”
He was encouraged to do his best and then turned around and moved on to his next opponent and the upcoming National Championships.
UCLA will host the University of Washington, their penultimate opponent of the group stage, on Friday. After playing the University of Washington, they will face the challenge of the University of Arizona.
However, these two games have really decided nothing.
Because, the current UCLA ranking is second in the Pacific Division, and the University of Southern California is in first place.
This means that they will enter the national competition as a selection team. Ben Holland's current estimates... UCLA will enter the National Championship as either the No. 3 or No. 4 seed in the South Region, which means they will face either the No. 14 seed or the No. 13 player in the first round.
The rules of the NCAA Division I are interesting because of the size of the country, so they started by dividing all the teams in the country into up to 31 divisions, plus the Ivy League league, and the winners of these 32 divisions will directly qualify for the top 64 of the country. The NCAA Board of Management then selects teams to enter the top 64 based on each team's historical accolades or other comprehensive considerations.
Most of the teams selected are in the six top divisions: BIG-TEN, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), Southeastern Conference (SEC), BIG-EAST, Pacific 12-School League (PAC-12), and Big Twelve Conference (BIG-12).
The top 64 will be divided into four sub-divisions according to the time zone. They are the Southern, Western, Eastern, and Central and Western districts. These four regions will determine the four champions respectively, which are the final four.
UCLA is the strongest in the Southern Side.
If they want to win the championship, the first step is to become the champion of the South Division.
As things stand, their first-round opponent is likely to be the University of Kansas led by favourites Michael Beasley.
Michael Beasley is the NCAA's No. 1 stat freak this year and can even go down in the history books of the NCAA. In his first college game, he had 32 points and 24 rebounds. In the finished regular season in the Southeast Division, he averaged 26.2 points and 14.5 rebounds per game. You know, this is the NCAA, the NCAA is no better than the NBA, and the possibility of getting super data here is very small.
Last year's draft champion Greg Oden also only averaged 15+9 per game, and Carmelo Anthony led Syracuse University to dominate the NCAA, and only averaged 22+10 per game. In recent years, the only one who can compete with him in terms of statistics is last year's list, and he is also Beasley's hardcore brother, Kevin Durant, who averaged 25+13 per game last year.
However, several major draft professional platforms have emphasized that Michael Beasley at 2.08 is better than Kevin Durant because he has the ability to dribble and shoot at a power forward, and his three-point shooting percentage is even as high as 43 percent. At the same time, he has rebounding and back-to-back skills that small forwards should not have.
With O.J. Mayo's loss to UCLA on Tuesday, his support on the top three major draft platforms has dropped, with Michael Beasley coming to No. 1.
But.
"Are you really sure you want to use Snoopy against Michael Beasley's onslaught?" When Offensive Assistant Coach Kerr heard Ben Holland's plan, his eyes widened incredibly: "That's Michael Beasley!" ”
Ben Holland said seriously: "I know. However, if our first-round opponent is the University of Kansas, Snoopy would be the best candidate. ”
"Why can't it be Tygibson, he's got better footwork and more athleticism." Cole was surprised that he was very conservative on Snoopy's issue.
"Because Michael Beasley has better footwork and more athleticism. So we can't defend him with players like him, we can only limit him with players who are the opposite of him. "Ben Holland is determined.
Kerr shrugged his shoulders, and he thought Holland had lost his mind.
What is the difference between using a rookie who can't even shoot a basketball to deal with a top pick and shooting a fighter with a machine gun?
He is not from Chaoxian, and he has no Jin family blood.
