Chapter 224: I want to be the starter!
"Smack"
With a sound, the basketball was plucked in the air by a palm and fell to one side. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Attack ......!"
Cousins easily got possession of the ball and the red team attacked.
"Outside run, run, run!"
After a summer of special training, although Evans spent most of his energy on helping Gu Yu improve his dribbling skills, his own practice did not fall behind.
When the dribble came to the top of the middle arc, Isaiah Thomas was inexperienced, and thought that Evans was the breakthrough point guard who shot extremely unreliable, and was afraid of Evans's breakthrough power, so he stood a little back, and all he was thinking about was how to find a way to break the ball.
"Yo, look down on people, rookie."
Evans saw Thomas's thoughts at a glance, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and suddenly a small step back came to the outside of the three-point line, his hands ready to hold the ball, and he was about to shoot.
Worst......!
Thomas knew that he had made a big mistake, and Evans's posture saw that his shooting confidence had increased a lot, and he immediately grabbed to save.
However, it was too late.
"Whew......!"
Three-point shot!
"What......?!"
On the sidelines, many players were confused, although there was no big problem with this shot choice, if it was a shooter like Thorton or Gu Yu, no one would have an opinion.
But...... Evans??
Evans's shooting is enough, but he is completely unguarded, and he may not be able to score three points, at this time, Thomas is just not well controlled in the distance, and he is not completely out of position, is Evans' shot funny??
Shooting against the defense? Evans??
Crazy!
“…… Hey. ”
On the court, Evans naturally knew what his teammates thought, but his hand movements were not deformed, and his three-point shot was crisp and neat, and he did not waver at all.
Three-point instability? Can't shoot a basketball? If you have defense, you can't get into long-range shots??
Hehe, that's the old imperial calendar.
"Whew......!"
The basketball flew in the air, out of a perfect arc, and went straight to the net.
Evans landed on his feet, didn't look at the basket, turned around and left.
"Now I'm different......!"
"Huh!"
Basketball into the net!
“…… Groove !! ”
With the sound of the basketball landing, all the king players in the audience were completely stunned.
Evans, who pulled up against the defensive three-pointers, also scored??
Did God give the wrong skill pack today??!
"Good shot!!"
Cousins except Evans, the only person on the red team who knew the reason, high-fived Evans fiercely during the return to defense, and at the end he half-jokingly glanced at Gu Yu opposite.
"Humph......!"
Evans, Cousins, the two problem children stopped at the same time and made a biceps show movement at Gu Yu.
"Hahaha! Ok Ok!! ”
The bench players on the sidelines were also excited, all of them following the example of Evans and Cousins, making muscle-flexing movements and laughing as they leaned forward and backwards.
Thank you very much......!
After the provocation, Evans looked at Gu Yu with a smug expression, and waved his right wrist gently at his side.
"The problem with your shooting is not the basic position, no matter how weird the basic position is, as long as you get used to it, you can still score goals. Like Peja, is the posture standard? Stockton, is posture standard? Van Exel, is the posture standard? It's not standard! ”
Evans remembered what Gu Yu said on the first day he taught Gu Yu to dribble, and he also began to ask Gu Yu how to improve his shooting accuracy and whether he needed to change his shooting posture.
"My posture standards, like textbooks, are because my basketball foundation was laid in China. As for Chinese coaches, there are big problems in other aspects, only height theory, will not teach students according to their aptitude, and there are many problems such as attaching importance to the inside line and not paying attention to the outside line. But there is one thing, the Chinese coach has done a good job. ”
Gu Yu picked up a basketball, turned to the basket, and threw it with his hand.
It's so beautiful......!!
Looking at Gu Yu's sculpture-like shooting action, Evans's heart was caught tightly in an instant.
Graceful, classical, rhythmically precise.
Gu Yu's shooting is like unfolding a basketball textbook in front of Evans, and the standard shooting posture in the illustrations in the book is intercepted, which is what Gu Yu looks like now.
"Huh"
Basketball into the net.
"Our coaches in China attach great importance to the practice of basic skills. The basic skills I am talking about here are not your ball sense, rhythm sense, fast subconscious and the like, in China, our understanding of basic skills is more basic and simple. ”
Gu Yu continued: "We believe that the basic skill is to shoot. ”
In the next few minutes, Gu Yu briefly introduced Evans to the basic teaching ideas of basketball in China.
To shoot a basketball, you have to shoot a textbook pose. Although many of the players who really play also have such and such problems in their shooting posture, the Chinese coaches will definitely take the trouble to try to "correct" their posture again and again.
This kind of thinking is too old-fashioned and in many cases, it kills the player's own creativity. The players who were taught were in the same position, and everyone was shooting with the same rhythm and movement, and this rhythm has long been abandoned by the world's top basketball world.
However, when the coach meets a player like Gu Yu, who is born with a silky soft touch......
A shooting machine will be born.
"It doesn't matter if the posture standard is not standard, you have played basketball for so many years, and you have already developed your own unique shooting moves. Now that you're not in your teens, it's too difficult to change your movements, and the results may not be good. ”
Gu Yu said in a rare earnest voice: "Instead of changing the whole set of actions, it is better to grasp the key points and make key breakthroughs." ”
Back to the pitch.
"With people, Thornton......"
"Huh!"
The white team attacked, and Thorton's defense was really enough, although he had been in the league for two years, he couldn't even compare to Gu Yu.
A beautiful outside cut to find cover, Gu Yu received a pass from Thomas to "pay tribute", and the shot was extremely crisp, and the basketball went into the net.
"It's ...... fast!"
On the sidelines, the players who were still rejoicing at Evans' sudden three-point ability suddenly fell silent again.
"The son wants to rebel? It's early! Hahaha! ”
Gu Yu was naturally provocative on the field, shouting loudly, and he shouldn't have the demeanor of the past at all.
But this shot made the audience silent.
Is there any difference?
Is there any difference between Gu Yu and Evans' shooting?
In terms of technical details, there are many differences. Evans' shooting elbow is a bit valgus, and he is theoretically not as stable as Gu Yu. But Evans has more strength in the lower body core, jumps higher, and is theoretically less difficult to shoot.
But judging by the process and the result, there is not much difference. All of them scored, they were all hollow into the net, and even, Evans still scored three points, and the shock should be more amazing than Gu Yu's empty shot.
But why......
"Why does my cousin's shooting look so 'cold'......???"
It's progressing again.
In the three days of recovery practice, Westphal has already seen that Gu Yu's overall sense of the ball has improved a lot. But in terms of shooting, to be honest, I didn't look closely, because Gu Yu's shooting accuracy is well known, so there is nothing to be surprised about.
But now at the practice match, Westphal clearly realized that something was wrong.
"This kid's shooting speed seems to be faster, and the arc is more fixed, compared to last season's high arc, it has been adjusted to a certain extent, and it has become slightly flattened!"
Beside the old coach, the offensive assistant coach Carlil saw the clue and frowned: "Why do you want to make this adjustment?" The higher the shooting arc, the better, because the higher the arc, the larger the chamfer angle between the basketball route and the basket plane, so that the inclined area of the basket will increase, and the shooting rate will also increase! ”
Carlil is talking about a very basic principle in basketball, and most fans understand this simple truth.
In addition to this, there are many benefits to high arcs, such as short players throwing high arcs, which can make the basketball rise quickly in the shortest time and avoid blocks from other players.
Philadelphia 76ers' starting point guard, Stephen Curry, is a good player. Limited by height and physical fitness, Curry can't pull straight to the moon like Maddy, shoot flat shots at the same height as the basket, and can also avoid the defense and shoot accurately.
IN ORDER TO AVOID THE DEFENSE, CURRY CAN ONLY ADJUST HIS SHOOTING ARC, AND WHEN THE BASKETBALL ENTERS THE NET, THE NET FLIES, LIKE A SPLASH, CURRY IS EVEN CALLED "SPLASH-BOY" BY A SMALL NUMBER OF FANS.
And Gu Yu's physical fitness is not even as good as Curry, so it stands to reason that he should improve his shooting arc even more. But right now, Gu Yu's shooting posture and arc are somewhat similar to Lei Allen.
What does that mean?
Gu Yu's brain is broken? The good habits that have been cultivated over the years are about to be broken?
Wrong.
Carlile's mouth was chattering and confused, but Westphall shook his head slightly.
"Look at the height of his jump."
"Whoosh......!"
On the court, the red team's offense failed, and the new recruit Hixon jumped high to protect the rebound, and after picking the ball, he gave Thomas a turnaround, and the basketball came to Gu Yu in the front court. In the face of Thorton's defense, Gu Yu didn't look at it and pulled it out directly, and threw it with his hands open.
"I'm thinking too much about you!"
Suoton's physical fitness was far above Gu Yu, and he immediately jumped up and tried his best to block it, but when he came to the highest point, he found that Gu Yu's body was slightly tilted back, and his wrist flicked.
"Whew"
The basketball flew out of Gu Yu's hands, and Thorton was surprised to find it
"Bump...... Can't touch ??! ”
I jumped with all my might, he dribbled the ball, and he shot right in front of my eyes, and I couldn't touch the ball??
What the hell is going on......
"Huh!"
Before Thorton could figure out what was going on, behind him, the basketball went into the net.
“…… Wow, this speed!! ”
The players on the sidelines are going crazy, they clearly didn't blink for a moment just now, but the basketball was just shot in the last moment, how could they have scored in the next moment?
Why did my cousin's shooting become so fast?!!
"Marcus, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to score lots and lots of points on your head in this game and beat you down. Because ......"
Gu Yu looked at the shocked Suodon coldly, and said, "I want to be the starting ......!" ”
