Basketball: starting from the nerve knife

Chapter 6: I stand right before you

To be gifted is to be able to do whatever you want.

With the potential for ball control at 82, mid-range shooting potential at 82, and three-point potential at 85, Li Wan now understands why Olajuwon has only practiced basketball for two years to become an NBA champion.

Because for talented people, two years is really long enough.

Take the current Li Wan, in just 14 days, his ball control ability has increased from the original 35 points to 54 points, which has reached the level of the NBA “water cooler” administrator.

Mid-range shots increased from 34 to 53, and three-pointers from 30 to 49.

No wonder it is said that hard work is worthless in the face of talent.

The same 8 hours of training, compared to the tortoise speed that had worked hard for several months to increase a few points, Li Wan’s progress in this half month can be described as a thousand miles a day.

Of course, this may also have something to do with the fact that he focused his main efforts on these two aspects, or it may be… It was he who turned out to be so bad.

In the few days of his training, the NBA free market opened and a lot of big deals took place, including Li Wan’s knowledge, Kobe Bryant submitted a transfer application to management, and also ran Chicago for a circle.

This caused a major earthquake throughout the league, and the headlines of recent days were almost all him.

Optimistic Los Angeles media believe that the Lakers will complete a deal that satisfies Kobe Bryant this summer, and he does not really want to leave Los Angeles; The pessimistic media is already analyzing what kind of chips Kobe Bryant will exchange from the Bulls for a loss.

An insider, who did not want to be named, said: “Lakers, you also have today!” ”

On July 10, Li Wan officially arrived in Las Vegas to join the Lakers Summer League team.

“You’re finally here, man, and I was worried at one point that you wouldn’t be able to catch up. ”

Phil Handy met with Li Wan specifically, and did not ask Li Wan anything, but let Li Wan be comfortable and how to come.

“You can actively ask for the ball, I’ve told everyone that anyone who doesn’t pass you will be replaced by me in the first place. ”

Unlimited right to fire … Is it?

Li Wanzhen did not expect that one day, he would actually be able to enjoy unlimited fire rights.

But it’s normal to think about it, the original intention of summer league is to let the rookies adapt to the pace of faster, and play more intense games in advance. The 19th pick in the first round may not be much in the NBA, but in the summer league it is a baby golden pimple, and the team’s focus is on developing goals.

Just a little.

He doesn’t seem to need to actively ask for the ball to have a chance to shoot.

He didn’t intend the ball to leave his hand…

With his current level of possession, he is enough to cope with the summer league.

That night, Li Wan also saw the Lakers summer league schedule.

The Las Vegas Summer League is fast-paced, playing 4 regular season games in 7 days and all games including the playoffs in 10 days. The opponents of the Lakers in the first game… It’s quite a coincidence, New York Knicks!

Unexpectedly, I met Wilson Chandler so soon.

On the night of the draft, this guy provoked him twice intentionally or unintentionally, and his smug eyes at that time, Li Wan still remembers. He is not a generous person on the court. What “a dog bites you, you can’t always bite it” in him this is a crooked reason.

Shit, it bites me, I won’t bite it is not fake, but I can’t kick it yet?

However, it was someone else who really stimulated his fighting spirit.

“Lee, I can see some spirituality in you that others don’t have, that’s really great, no doubt we’ll pick you, even up the trade draft, you can already look at houses in New York, you’ll be the New York Knicks’ rookie this summer…”

Thomas Jr. let Li Wan know that a man’s mouth, a deceitful ghost, no matter how promising it is, it is unreliable. No matter what the reason is, let him give up choosing himself, Li Wan wants to do one thing, so that this dog day regrets!

The next day came quickly.

The stadium of the summer league is very small, in the nearby high school rented field, there are only two or three thousand seats in the audience, but this seat is not enough for the audience.

Several online media came from the sidelines.

In the past, this was not the case, but now with the development of the Internet, the number of media has surged, which has given the summer league a little exposure.

When Chandler saw Li Wan, he turned into the “Crooked Mouth Dragon King” again and looked at him so defiantly.

Li Wan felt that he was a little sick, and reached out to compare an international gesture, successfully provoking this guy.

Defeated generals, dare to be arrogant?

Chandler decided to give Li Wan some color to see.

At the beginning of the game, the Lakers side took possession of the ball, Li Wan asked for the ball at the back, dribbled through the half, and when Chandler defended, he still did not pass.

“Oh? ”

Phil Handy was a little surprised.

The scouting report clearly recorded that Li Wan did not have the ability to hold the ball, otherwise he would not have specifically instructed the rest of the Lakers to pass the ball to Li Wan.

But now looking at his confident look, it seems… Got the ball got?

What happened next on the field confirmed his conjecture.

Li Wan called his teammate’s block, faced Nate Robinson, who came up from the defense, and after a solid confrontation, he still dribbled steadily to the basket and passed to his teammate to score.

This goal, although he did not score himself, but the ability to hold the ball was shown.

Although this is only the first round, it doesn’t mean anything, but there is anticipation in Phil Handy’s eyes.

Offensive and defensive switching, this Wilson Chandler waited for Nate Robinson to dribble through the half, clapped his hands for the ball, and “Little Potato” actually passed the ball to his hand.

The New York Knicks’ obvious purpose is to use the summer league to adapt Chandler to the NBA rhythm.

The first time he got the ball, Li Wan quickly stopped in front of Chandler, not allowing him to dribble.

He has a habit of studying opponents for the season, not to mention that Wilson Chandler is still his rival before the draft.

Chandler, like him, was a defensive and weak guy in college, and with his explosive physicality, he was a very good flank guard.

The offensive end relies on explosiveness, and he can break through layups and even dunks.

I just don’t have the ability to hold the ball, and I prefer to catch the ball and shoot at a fixed point.

Chandler did not panic, but started in a “triple threatening pose” in an attempt to force Li Wan back. But Li Wan completely ignored his threat of breakthrough, and interfered with him so closely.

Chandler had the feeling of a dog.

I’m all “three threats”, isn’t this guy afraid?

Li Wan: “Three threats”? “War trampling” is just that!

He simply took a big step to the right with the ball, forced a breakthrough, and tried to pass it with explosive power.

But at the same time as he moved, Li Wan also quickly moved sideways and continued to top in front of him.

Under the confrontation, the ball fell from Chandler’s hand, and Lakers teammate Marcus Williams on the side quickly grabbed the ball.

When Li Wan held the ball, he immediately went down. Chandler chased after him, thinking that he could easily catch up, but instead he felt that Li Wan was getting farther and farther away from him.

“Give me the ball! ”

Li Wan turned around to ask for the ball, and with a stronger power “motor”, he ran in front. Williams did as he was told, gave the ball away, and Li Wan rushed to the basket to split the dunk with one hand.

At the same time as he stopped receiving the ball, Chandler closed the distance and jumped up fiercely, trying to chase the cap.

only to find…

So far!

How did this guy jump so much higher than me?

“Phew! ”

In his incredulous gaze, Li Wan slammed the ball into the basket.

In the defense of return, Li Wan learned the same, turned into the “Crooked Mouth Dragon King”, and handed a mocking smile to Chandler.

I’m standing right in front of you, and you see how much I’m like before!

“Your mouth twitched like this just now, right? ”

Get up early and ask for support, ask for recommendation, ask for collection!!!
