NBA: A three-point experience card at the beginning

Time, 8:48 am.

Ucla training center arena.

Wang Yi completed the last training session of taking off and blocking shots.

In my mind, the system's cold mechanical prompt sounded:

【mission completed!】

[Task reward: 20% chance of blocking]

"call--"

Wang Yi collapsed to the ground again.

His chest was like a bellows, rising and falling violently.

He was so tired that he didn't even want to blink his eyelids.

He was really, really tired.

However, thinking about the 20% chance of blocking shots, a smile appeared on his face.

The 20% chance of blocking shots seems very low.

But think about it in reality, if a player shoots 10 times in front of you, can you block two shots?

The offensive player will fake, shake, retreat, and lean back.

So if you can block the opponent's shot once out of 10 times, it's already pretty good.

The technical statistics of NBA players per game generally only cover two, three, three, or four shots.

So the 20% chance of blocking shots is actually very high.

Coupled with Wang Yi's understanding of each player's technical characteristics and playing habits, this probability can be mentioned again, and there is no problem in reaching a 30% shot blocking probability.

If the opponent shoots 10 times in front of him, he can block 3 shots.

This is already very abnormal.

…

At 12 noon, we had lunch.

The players began to board the plane and fly to Washington.

On the plane, there were a small number of players who did not communicate much with Wang Yi.

They were originally prejudiced against Wang Yi because he was an Oriental.

Now that Wang Yi has said these words again, they are even more prejudiced against Wang Yi.

Wang Yi doesn't care about this.

Hasn't he received enough cold looks in the past two years?

In this case, if you want to conquer the entire NBA, let's start by conquering these teammates around you.

Wang Yi secretly clenched his fist.

During the flight, James was listening to music, and some of the other teammates were playing video games, some were reading newspapers, and some were reading books.

Wang Yi was holding his notebook and studying the Wizards' recent game videos.

What fans see is only the performance of the players on the field.

But in fact, if you want to be an excellent player, you have to do much more than what fans see.

Although Wang Yi is familiar with the technical characteristics of each player, he still has to watch the opponent's video before the game.

Find out whether an opponent has developed new technologies recently and whether the opponent's team has new tactics.

At 6:30 p.m., the team arrived at a hotel near the Washington Arena to check in.

Since the flight took nearly six hours, the bus ride took another half an hour.

The players are very tired.

So the coach did not arrange training.

Players can move around freely.

The home court of the Wizards is called the Verizon Center.

This arena is located in the Chinatown business district.

After Wang Yi came to the NBA, he has been training and has basically never been to Chinatown.

This time I have the opportunity to go out for a walk.

The most important thing is that in Chinatown, you can hear the local accent.

Being in a foreign country, all I hear on weekdays is English.

As soon as he entered Chinatown and heard a few words in Mandarin, Wang Yi suddenly felt friendly.

In Chinatown, some Chinese fans also recognized Wang Yi.

They came over one after another to take photos with Wang Yi.

It seems that they are not as disgusted with Wang Yi as domestic fans.

I guess it’s because I also work hard in a foreign country and cherish the friendship between my compatriots even more.

Wang Yi spent more than an hour shopping in Chinatown and bought two sets of Tang suits.

Wearing a Tang suit can make him feel closer to his motherland and his relatives.

The next afternoon, there were still two hours before the game started.

Both teams participated in a pre-match press conference.

At the press conference, a reporter asked Westbrook a question:

"The Oriental guy on the Lakers team said he was here to conquer the NBA. What do you think?"

Westbrook scratched his head and said:

"He said things that I wanted to say but didn't dare to say. I'll wait and see."

All reporters at the scene were stunned.

They didn't expect that Westbrook's attitude seemed to be supporting the Oriental.

Thoughts flashed rapidly through the reporter's mind.

Finally he thought of Hachimura.

Suddenly my eyes lit up.

A second question was asked:

"Mr. Hachimura, what do you think of the Oriental's remarks?"

Hachimura laughed heartily and said:

"Arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant! I will teach him a lesson on behalf of the seniors in the NBA. I will let him learn how to respect his seniors and how to respect the fans."

These words first belittled Wang Yi, and secondly placed himself at the highest moral point.

I have to say that the level of speaking is indeed high.

The reporter immediately dug another hole:

"When you talk about teaching him a lesson, do you mean beating him up on the court?"

Westbrook glanced at Hachimura.

It means reminding him that this is a trap.

Hachimura naturally knew that this was a trap, but he didn't care.

He raised his head and looked at the reporters in the audience.

"Yes, I will beat him. And I will beat him on both offense and defense! Let him have a long memory and respect his predecessors."

As soon as this statement came out, the reporters at the scene suddenly became excited.

"Mr. Hachimura, can you tell me specifically how to defeat him on both offense and defense?"

"Mr. Hachimura, his words have caused public outrage. If you can teach him a lesson, we will all be grateful to you."

"Mr. Hachimura, we look forward to you teaching him a lesson..."

In the visiting team's locker room, the Lakers players and coaches looked at this scene and subconsciously turned their heads to look at Wang Yi.

But Wang Yi was still holding the tablet and studying the Wizards game video.

It seems like I haven't heard anything about this.

In fact, of course he heard it. But he didn't care on the surface.

It's just that I have already made up my mind.

Let's see who kills who tonight.

In order to protect Wang Yi, the coach did not allow Wang Yi to participate in the pre-match press conference.

Soon, it was time to warm up before the game.

When James walked to the players' tunnel, he said to Wang Yi:

"Brother, are you ready?"

Wang Yi nodded heavily.

He was in the player tunnel, looking at the huge arena that could accommodate more than 22,000 spectators, and said secretly in his heart:

Conquer the NBA, start from this arena!

When Wang Yi was warming up, he looked towards the audience.

I saw some fans in the audience holding several signs.

There are a few words written on it:

Wang Yi, come on!

Support Brother Yi!

These fans are all Chinese.

This made Wang Yi feel a little warm in his heart.

However, there are only a very small number of such fans.

More fans are waiting to see Wang Yi's jokes tonight.

Soon, the warm-up was completed and the game began.

Wang Yi still failed to start.

As for the Wizards, Rui Hachimura is now in the starting lineup.

When he first came on the field and passed by Wang Yi, his eyes were full of provocation.

In Wang Yi's eyes, fighting spirit also emerged.

The game lasted five minutes, and the Lakers frequently succeeded inside.

As for the Wizards, they don't feel good from beyond the three-point line.

But Rui Hachimura has a good feel.

Hit two mid-range shots in a row, plus a dunk.

With more than two minutes left in the first quarter, the score was 27 to 26.

The Lakers lead by 1 point.

At this time, coach Vogel replaced James.

Said to Wang Yi: "Wang, come on."

Wang Yi took a look at the score and was quite pleased.

This was the first time the Lakers were ahead when he was on the court.
