Chapter 178 The Most Promising Year for the Bulls
After the victory of the game, the United Center Arena once again rang the song of victory.
Huaguo Sports Channel made a set of special columns today.
At the end of the "Basketball Park" program, the host Liu Xingyu summarized the performance of the Bulls for a while.
"After an upset loss to the Warriors, the Bulls won two wins against the Pistons, defeated the Grizzlies, abused the Hornets, and regained their own good momentum."
"The current record of the Bulls is 28 wins and 9 losses. After experiencing this wave of four consecutive victories, the Bulls can be said to have firmly established the second position in the Eastern Conference."
"Before the All-Star Game, the Bulls will play against the Cavaliers twice in the remaining games, and these two games will directly establish the pattern of the regular season and the Eastern Conference."
"The strongest small forward in the NBA, the battle between No. 6 and No. 23, will the Cavaliers control the Bulls, or the Bulls will break through the Cavaliers, let us wait and see."
Even without the special report made by the program group, viewers and friends of Huaguo Sports Channel have naturally been looking forward to these two games for a long time.
I have to admit that the official NBA tournament team and the old fox David Stern really took great pains.
As the most important team in the Eastern Conference and the two teams with the most fans, fans from both the United States and China have been looking forward to the confrontation between these two teams for a long time.
Everyone is waiting, waiting, waiting until the flowers are gone
It turned out that the first half of the game was almost over. The Bulls and the Cavaliers had fought almost every other team once before the two teams finally met.
After all, playing against the Cavaliers is the top priority of the team's mission this year, and Su Yi also hastened to train.
After a day of adjustments, Su Yi followed his own personal trainer, Micah Lancaster, to the stadium for training.
Su Yi first picked up the tire and walked outside for a while.
In the nearly two months of competition and training that ended, Su Yi followed De Nagro's suggestion and focused his main skill points on strength.
So his current strength can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.
During the NCAA period, Su Yi only weighed 99.5kg, but now he has completely turned into a muscular man - weighing 110.3kg, and his body fat rate has reached a terrifying 6.3%!
In the past, when Su Yi played with the tires, he would feel that his muscles were about to be torn.
However, doing similar training now, he can easily lift the 400-pound truck tire.
After the warm-up training, Su Yi returned to the United Center with great interest, waiting for the trainer Micah Lancaster's arrangement.
Lancaster double-checked the recent training form, nodding in relief.
"Your skills and tactics, and your body, have improved a lot lately. You're probably the most talented kid I've ever seen, and it seems like after every game, you improve a little bit, which proves that you are a very A player who is good at summarizing himself."
Su Yi smiled embarrassedly. In fact, he knew that he could get a certain amount of skill points after each game, so how could he not improve?De Nagro is also very concerned about the subsequent consecutive games against the Cavaliers.
On the one hand, this will directly determine the position of the top players in the Eastern Conference in this year's regular season. On the other hand, the Bulls really want to avenge the Cavaliers this year.
Because this guy James really caused the entire Bulls a headache in last year's game.
Su Yi wore his black vest and came to the bench press for a test.
Denagro is very concerned about Su Yi's strength training, because facing a bulldozer player like James, if he can't even handle strength, all tactics are useless.
The trainer gradually warmed up for Su Yi to add pounds.
130 kg
140 kg
This weight is drizzle to Su Yi now.
After Su Yi successfully lifted a weight of 160 kilograms, Denagro's eyes had begun to look forward to it.
This weight is already the maximum weight that Howard and Yao Ming can lift among the fifth positions.
However, it seemed that Su Yi still had some room to spare, and he didn't exert all his strength!
Under De Nagro's expectant eyes, Lancaster actually directly increased the barbell on the bench press rack to 180 kg!
De Nagro could hardly believe his eyes, he knew what this power meant.
Lancaster tried his best to help Su Yi relax.
"Relax your breathing and try to find your most comfortable muscle state, so that the test results will be more meaningful."
"Try to feel the balance of the barbell and tell yourself - I can do it!"
Su Yi rubbed his hands together, shook the barbell slightly back and forth, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and his muscles began to tighten gradually.
Under the sunshine of Chicago, the sexy muscle lines are revealed.
Under the strong pull, the barbell made a creaking sound and began to shake slightly.
Following the technique Lancaster taught him, Su Yi gave a loud shout and suddenly exerted force.
With a surge of momentum, the barbell was lifted into the air with strong inertia.
Su Yi exerted his last strength and kept the barbell in the air for three full seconds.
De Nagro, as a basketball coach, could hardly believe his eyes.
That might be the longest three seconds in his life! Unexpectedly, Su Yi is a true emperor, and in a short period of time, he can practice his strength so terrifyingly.
"How do you practice this?" De Nagro felt his eyeballs were about to fall out.
"Even in the future, I wouldn't be shocked that Su could stay in the air for a year."
Lancaster was obviously used to Su Yi as a ruthless person, and his expression became a little calmer.
"It's just a normal operation. It's not that difficult to get a shot. You can do it if you stick to it."
Su Yi turned towards Denagro, showing an optimistic, confident, calm and lovely smile.
He is very clear in his heart.
After looking at the prompt on the system screen, my strength has reached 92, and I have mastered the technique of bench press, so I am not surprised to get this result.
De Nagro could only smile silly, thinking to himself: "This kid is still as Versailles as before."
But he is still very happy in his heart. With this physique, why can't he face the hard steel Zhan Huang.
For a small forward with this kind of physical fitness, it is also a good choice to defend the fourth position every now and then.
But Su Yi is more concerned about his training plan for the next stage.
Because the upper limit of his current [Strength Breaking Card] is only 95, which is already quite close to the upper limit.
And from the recent upper limit, it can be clearly felt that the improvement efficiency of strength training is far less than before, so it is still necessary to enrich your other offensive and defensive methods as much as possible.
Lancaster sent Su Yi a task list for the new stage.
The above title is very conspicuous - "SHOOT! (Status size!)"
"Shooting training?" Su Yi scratched his head.
"Yes, Su, in the future playoff games, you must control your pressure to increase your shooting percentage. The intensity of the game at that time will be very high. Any ostentation is not as good as shooting to win the game."
"Then shoot." Su Yi naturally obeyed the trainer's arrangement.
The morning sun shone through the mist.
The fresh smell in the air refreshed Su Yi's mind.
Early the next morning, Su Yi ran to his team's arena to prepare for today's special training.
Excited little Tom arrived here around 5 o'clock in the morning.
When he saw his idol, Super Su, whom he had longed for day and night, he let out a cry of surprise, and then threw himself into Su Yi's arms.
Su Yi picked up little Tom, and then gently put him on the ground.
"Tom, do you really miss me?" Su Yi deliberately teased this cute little boy.
"Of course, I have watched every game of yours seriously. I have long been looking forward to meeting you again. My classmates are very envious of me."
Su Yi touched Tom's head, then took out the key and opened the door to the training ground.
……
After Su Yi changed his jersey, he and Tom made a casual three-pointer.
Thirty minutes later, a tall middle-aged man walked into the arena neatly dressed.
"Super Su, it's me, Adam Harrington. Is this where you want to train?" The famous shooting coach who will become famous in the league in the future still maintains a trace of anxiety and restraint at the moment.
Su Yi signaled Little Tom to rest first, and then strode over.
"Hi, Harrington, I'm glad you're here. You know, I need your help, especially in shooting skills." Su Yi stepped forward to hug Harrington, and then the two walked into the court.
"As your personal shooting coach, I carefully studied the videos of your games yesterday after receiving the call, and I have some insights in my mind. However, I still have to confirm it on the spot. So, Su, can you give Shall I demonstrate your shooting?" Harrington obviously has a rigorous and responsible professional attitude.
"Of course. We can start now." Su Yi picked up the basketball, walked to the three-point range, and stretched the basketball to the basket.
"Shh!"
Little Tom screamed, then picked up the ball and handed it to Harrington.
"We are not in a hurry. Let's confirm what you want to train today. After all, you are a paying employer, and I hope to give you better guidance and services." Harrington patted the ball, and then seriously Said.
"CIC." Su Yi paused, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I think my CIC needs to be strengthened. I believe that under your guidance, my CIC shooting percentage will steadily increase."
"Okay. Let's start then. First here..." Harrington pointed to the position on the court and asked Su Yi to shoot everywhere.
After trying 20 shots, Harrington made Su Yi stop.
Su Yi felt that he couldn't get enough of his vote.
"The mid-range shot is an important shooting skill. Because the shooting distance is between the three-point line and the three-second zone, it is generally difficult to be blocked as long as the shooting timing is good."
"The accuracy of the mid-range shooting posture, the stability of the mid-range shot brought by physical training, the grasp of good shooting timing, strong shooting confidence and excellent psychological quality, good physical coordination in the confrontation, the shooting angle and flight path of basketball... …The mid-range shooting technique is a systematic subject, not just the correct shooting posture can achieve great results.”
"For example, when you shoot, your arms can be raised higher, your wrists can be softer, and you can use your legs and waist to work together when you shoot a jump shot... Not only that, but I think your difficult mid-range shots can also be improved a lot The details, we will correct them step by step.”
"Since there are only six hours of training time today, I divided the training plan into three parts: the first is physical training, the second is ordinary mid-range shooting training, and the third is high-difficulty mid-range shooting training. One hour of physical training, ordinary mid-range shooting There are three hours of shooting training, and in the remaining two hours, we choose a difficult mid-range shooting movement, and then strive to improve the movement to perfection."
……
"Su, what do you think of the training plan and explanation I made?" Harington was very happy to see Su Yi trying to understand what he said, so he wanted to hear Su Yi's opinion.
"Adam, I have no opinion. Hiring you to guide my shooting skills is really the right thing to do. I have benefited a lot from your advice. I am really looking forward to the next game now." Su Yi moved his arm .
"Okay, let's get started." Harrington was ready to start the first phase of physical training.
"Mr. Coach, can I follow the training?" Little Tom's eyes were shining brightly. He dreamed of becoming a professional basketball player when he grew up, but now he had a small wish.
Harrington turned to look at Su Yi.
Su Yi nodded, and then began to make preparations.
Little Tom cheered, and then took off his coat. It turned out that he had prepared for it a long time ago and wore the jersey inside the coat.
……
Sweat was evaporating from his hot body, and Su Yi's heart was unusually peaceful as his figure shuttled across the court.
Harrington didn't say much, he just looked at the clock quietly, and guided Su Yi to rest or proceed to the next project from time to time.
What Harrington admired the most was Su Yi's training attitude.
He could feel Su Yi's deep love for basketball and his crazy enjoyment of training on the court.
Yes, Harrington read the idea of enjoying the thought from Su Yi's face in training.
So, when Su Yi finished the first stage of physical training an hour later, Harrington asked curiously.
"Su, it feels like you are really devoted to training. Many players I have contacted complain about physical training. Why can you maintain this love for training?"
"That's a wonderful feeling." Su Yi waited for his breathing to gradually stabilize, then picked up the energy drink that had been placed in advance, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Many stars like to fly on the court, thinking that is the whole fun of basketball. However, I don't think that is the case. I like the sound of the basketball hitting the ground, and I also like the feeling of running on the court. When the ball is with me, I feel like I own the whole world." Su Yi's eyes lit up, and a happy and bright smile appeared on his face.
Harrington was moved for a while. He realized that the league rookie in front of him was probably one of the few people who really loved basketball.
"Su, you are really a professional athlete who loves basketball."
"Yeah, I gave up tens of millions of family property and the opportunity to date countless beautiful women to come to a foreign country for my basketball dream. Even in training, I still feel like I am in a dream. A game is an indescribably enjoyable process for me. Even training is the same."
"Maybe this is the charm of basketball. For a person who really loves basketball, even cleaning the court and wiping the ball every day is a rare satisfaction and enjoyment. Adam, can you understand what I mean?"
Su Yi's eyes were so shining, as if there was a sun living inside.
Harrington nodded approvingly.
From this moment on, Harrington no longer worked for the $[-]. He felt that he had met a superstar worthy of his efforts, and he was willing to help Su Yi to realize his own dream.
Harrington's dream is to personally shape the countless marksmen in the league.
Kind of like Reggie Miller.
The two dreamers were excited, and the three-hour CIC training officially started.
……
One hour per set, 300 pitches per set.
Little Tom was sweating profusely from exhaustion, but his expression was extremely excited.
On the court, Su Yi seemed to have entered a state, except for basketball and Harrington's explanation, he had already forgotten everything in this world.
Harrington asked Su Yi to stop many times and corrected the details that he needed to improve in his mid-range shot.
As the pitching training progressed, Su Yi's movements became smoother and more elegant, and his hit rate also increased.
The first group hit 95%, the second group hit 97%, and in the end the third group hit a terrifying 99%, and only three of the 300 balls were missed.
Harrington was extremely excited.
He really met a genius!
