After the details of the first trade of the Philadelphia 76ers were roughly announced, Chen Mu immediately began to contact Stephen Curry.

Although in terms of playing style, Curry and Iverson are not quite the same. Iverson is a super ball-holding superstar with the ball in his hands, and although Curry's ball-holding skills are also among the best in the new era, playing without the ball and increasing Curry's outside offensive firepower as much as possible is also an idea to maximize Curry's power.

But Chen Mu knew in the original timeline that Iverson was Curry's idol, although a "one" had to be added to it. But how many of the small, skinny scorers aren't idolized by Iverson?

When he goes to New York, Curry can get the metropolis he wants most, big exposure, and everything in the Big Apple has a natural attraction for players.

And if he comes to Philadelphia, Curry can get the opportunity to play with Iverson.

How attractive is playing with idols? For quite a few players, it can be quite appealing. But ...... Curry?

"This and this...... I'm a little excited to say that! ”

On the phone, that's what Curry said.

From Curry's tone, it is not difficult for Chen Mu to hear that there is indeed some excitement, but it is more of a polite statement.

"Uh-huh, just to tell you, we are also very competitive in the process of competing for you~"

Chen Mu also smiled, and after leaving such a sentence, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and did not mention this matter again.

Curry is already half a god in the NCAA, what heights can he reach after entering the NBA? Most people think that the answer to this question should be a high-quality shooter. Maybe you can work hard, meet a good system, and be able to play on the side of an All-Star player.

But Chen Mu knew that he had seen the future. He knew that beneath Curry's seemingly elementary school appearance was a heart that wanted to be supergiant.

A player of this level is more eager to fight on the same field as his idol than to play on the same team as his idol. Fight against each other.

So these conditions, for Curry, may not even be considered temptation, but can only be said to be a "reason".

It's just a reason why he won't be unhappy when he comes to Philadelphia.

"By the way, speaking of which, I've been watching the video of the seventh game of the Eastern Conference Finals again and again recently, and the runway version is the version where you are the guest commentator."

Chatting and talking. Chen Mu thought of one thing, and said to Curry half-seriously and half-discussed: "At that time, you said that you saw 12 empty three-point opportunities in the half, is it really fake?" Did you really see so much, or did the two guys Smith and Barkley deliberately let you say this for the sake of the show? ”

"Oh, that's what you said." Curry replied, "That's true." ”

"Well, some of them I can understand. You can shoot a lot faster than others, especially if you dribble straight to the ground faster. So you can take advantage of some fleeting opportunities, and others don't even think of them as opportunities. ”

Chen Mu nodded and said, "But there are two balls in it, you said it was an opportunity." But at that time, the ball carrier was more than one step away from the three-point line! How sure are you of that kind of ball? ”

"Honestly?"

Curry laughed: "Actually, I'm not very sure!" As for that part, I somewhat wanted to think about the effect of the show, so I exaggerated it a little. Other than that...... You know. An NCAA shooter like me was always said to be unable to adapt to the intensity of the NBA, and was looked down upon. So I ...... I want to exaggerate a little bit and cheer myself on in the draft! ”

"Well, that's understandable."

Chen Mu nodded.

"Still. I really think about one thing sometimes. ”

At the end, Curry spoke to himself again and said, "Who stipulated that three-point shots must be shot on the three-point line?" When there is a chance, a vision, and a space to shoot, and the opponent is caught off guard, many NBA-level marksmen can maintain a certain shooting rate at that ultra-long distance, right? ”

"That's right."

Chen Mu also remembered the situation in training, sometimes Korver had fun with a few of them, and he would come to a few ultra-long points to try his touch. Don't say it, a shooter of Korver's level, the distance of one step outside the three-point line is really his range.

It's just that considering the iron law that the farther away from the basket, the harder it is for the basketball to get into the rim, even for an NBA star shooter like Korver, after leaving the three-point line, the attenuation rate of shooting percentage will increase rapidly with distance. For the sake of the so-called "unprepared" shooting opportunity, it is not cost-effective to fight for such an unreliable three-pointer.

In other words, without defense and without any pressure, Korver can shoot from the three-point line, and the shooting percentage may or may not be as high as eight or nine.

But with the same lack of defense and no pressure, let Korver take a step back, and the shooting percentage will quickly decay to about 50%.

If you go any further, it may decay to 40%, 30%, or even lower.

This is because as a shooter, the most important qualities are consistency and efficiency. In order to maintain the highest efficiency, to grasp the strongest point, diligently practice hundreds of balls a day, so that the body can remember the feeling of the shot, theoretically the best way to maintain a mechanically stable hand.

In this way, as soon as he shoots a three-pointer, Korver's body will automatically recall the shot posture that has been practiced thousands of times and shoot the perfect shot. And this kind of perfect shot on the three-point line, if you take a step back, it will not be perfect, it will definitely be short.

If the three-point shot is short, you have to add a little strength, and if you add strength, the stability will definitely be reduced. So the above situation arises, the further back you go, the more difficult it is to maintain the hit rate, and the lower the efficiency of the shooter.

That's why many players are good at shooting three-pointers from the bottom corner, and when they get to other positions, their shooting percentage will drop sharply. It's because the bottom corner three-point line is the shortest away from the basket, and the body is used to that kind of shot, and then stretching the distance, it will bring a lot of variables.

It is also for these reasons that people always say that it is more difficult to shoot than three-pointers, because three-point shooting can be fixed and can be practiced by thousands of tempers. In the middle of the shot, there is no fixed number, different positions, different distances, and different shooting methods, which will make the difficulty of hitting the basketball exponential multiple.

Therefore, most of the mid-pitchers have a relatively stable body shape. But the shooting hand is not necessarily the same every time, and continuous hitting and shooting depends more on feeling.

The traditional concept of basketball is a three-point player, preferably a three-point machine, and every shot is accurate without the slightest difference. Just like Ray Allen, it has been the same for decades, and no matter how you throw, it's this action.

But now, the young man who was talking to Chen Mu on the phone had an idea.

A bold idea that wants to subvert the current world-recognized truth of basketball.

This idea can even be called arrogant, but Chen Mu knows that this guy can do it.

"So I was thinking that since the degree of attenuation of the shooting percentage is more affected by the pressure of the defense than by the distance. So, why can't you just shoot a three-point shot like a mid-range shot? ”

Curry is also rare to be able to talk to an active professional player, analyze basketball ideas, and Gu Zi said: "Kobe Bryant, Jordan, Alan Houston, including Dirk, and you are all the same." Before you make a move, the position of each shot is not fixed. It's all about finding space on your own and then shooting at the least distracted position, right? ”

"That's right." Chen Mu replied.

"Those three points can be shot like this!"

Curry was a little excited, and his voice was a little louder.

"Use the dribble to find space and try to reduce the pressure on the defender as much as possible. If you have the opportunity, shoot decisively, and don't worry about dead rules such as distance. In this way, the half-court space of the stadium can be expanded at once, I don't know how much. The greater the threat from the outside, the easier it is for the interior to score, isn't it the best of both worlds? ”

Talented.

After listening to Curry's analysis, Chen Mu once again determined that this guy who will be epoch-making in the future is an absolutely right genius.

A genius is a person who thinks about problems from a perspective that ordinary people have not thought of, and then uses his own talents and abilities to do it.

Curry, apparently, has already started to get on the road.

No problem.

The most important information has been confirmed, and Curry on this timeline will not change his progress ideas because of the change of environment.

He will still shine on the court in the near future and become that incredible ball-carrying three-point bomber!

"Anyway, I still warmly invite you to come to Philadelphia, as long as you come, all the three-point opportunities you see will be yours. Because ......"

Towards the end of the chat, Chen Mu said sincerely: "Because you know, I am the strongest rebounder in the world, and it doesn't matter if you can't shoot." I'm going to grab all the rebounds, ......! ”

“…… Well, I'll seriously consider it! ”

Curry was excited by Chen Mu's resounding words, and nodded heavily on the other end of the phone.

After hanging up, Curry looked back at the TV where the game was playing, listened to his father, former super shooter Dear Curry, call him to practice, took a deep breath, and got up.

If you can go to Philadelphia, it seems like a good ......!

Curry walked onto the court.

On the other side, Chen Mu put down his mobile phone, and his heart was also very excited.

That's fine.

With Iverson, this is enough for Curry to play with peace of mind and no other negativity......

As long as Stefansky can complete his magical operation and win the No. 5 pick, Philadelphia, he will be invincible ......!

A few days later, the bombshell news came out again. (To be continued.) )

PS: And Lillard, what a ...... this year from the regular season to the playoffs I'm convinced!
