Super Role Player

"An, are you practicing stepping back?" Procopio first greeted Manu, then looked at Anxi's training, and couldn't help asking. ★★

An Xi nodded: "Yes, it's just a quick stop and step back jump shot."

Mike Procopio nodded: "Ann, in fact, I have been wanting to say that it is not suitable for you to practice more offensive skills now, you should consider specializing in one, and after you have practiced breakthroughs, slowly improve your offensive skills. Take advantage of mid-range shots and three-pointers."

"One specialization..." Anxi fell silent, and he began to think.

"Mike is right, Ann, you should specialize instead of learning too many miscellaneous offenses. If you can use the few techniques you have now and practice some related techniques, maybe your offense can Get a bigger swing."

Manu paused, probably thinking of something, and he continued: "In the last game, you were blocked by Trevor Ariza, and in the previous game, you were restrained by Jack Crowder and Draymond Green." Stop it, but, it's not because you lack offensive means, it's just that your post-up has not reached the highest level, and, although your three-pointers and mid-range shots are accurate, there is no matching style of play, and your off-ball , so far only catch and shoot."

"Actually, Anxi, you can focus on several of your existing outstanding skills to make the next step, such as emergency stop jump shots, such as back and back jump shots, and then such as air cut layups and so on."

Anxi nodded thoughtfully. During this period of time, he has indeed pursued his own almighty development. Now that he thinks about it carefully, is it really necessary?

Perhaps, as Manu and Procopio said, Anxi should further develop his existing offensive skills instead of blindly pursuing comprehensiveness.

In terms of basketball, Anxi was also very decisive. He immediately made a decision: "Well, Mike, let's not practice breakthroughs and low post next, let's practice emergency stop jumpers and fadeaway jumpers."

Hearing this, Manu shook his head again: "You can't do a fadeaway jump shot. Although I gave an example of a fadeaway jump shot, it's not so easy to practice. It requires a famous teacher and you need to study it yourself. Not so It is easy to practice, but for you, it is difficult to see the effect in a short time."

Anxi nodded again, now Manu's words are all good words, this is Manu's experience in nBa for more than ten years.

"Now, you should focus on practicing emergency stop jump shots and air cut layups. When these two skills are developed, you can be able to play inside and outside, and you can play singles with the ball or catch the ball by yourself. These points can be achieved , you can practice fadeaways and develop new offensive techniques.”

...

Manu Ginobili gave Anxi a lot of advice. Manu is very clear that Anxi now is like a piece of uncut jade, and every knife is extremely important, because once it is engraved, don’t even think about going back on it Yes, so Manu Ginobili feels that his advice to Anxi is still very important.

Anxi decided to make an emergency stop jump shot and an air cut layup. He listened carefully to Manu's advice and soon started a new training session.

The Spurs' schedule in February was relatively easy, but Vivić started a large-scale rotation for the All-Star Weekend.

As a result, game after game, the Spurs will inevitably lose.

Winning the Timberwolves in the away game, returning to the home court with a large rotation, but losing to the Pistons, the last in the East, then winning the Nets in the away game, and winning the Bulls in Chicago to achieve two consecutive victories, but then in Cleveland, the Spurs made a large rotation again, the Spurs Almost lost, and finally won by only 1 point...

The game before the All-Star weekend was over. The Spurs ended their road trip in the East with a wave of three consecutive victories, and then rushed back to San Antonio.

The All-Star Weekend is basically the middle of a season, and the All-Star Weekend means that half of the season is over.

In the first half of the season, the Spurs played a total of 54 games, with 42 wins and 12 losses. The overall performance was mediocre; but compared to the Spurs, other teams performed worse.

Speaking of the Western Conference alone, the so-called pre-season favorites, the Thunder's record is only slightly better than the Spurs. They played 52 games in the first half of the season, 42 wins and 10 losses, only 2 games less than the Spurs.

The record of the Lakers and Clippers is much worse than that of the Spurs. The Clippers are okay, with 39 wins and 17 losses in the first half of the season. Edge struggled.

The West is miserable, and the East is even worse. The Heat had 35 wins and 14 losses in the first half of the season, played 5 games less than the Spurs, but lost 2 more games than the Spurs; the Knicks, who are in good shape this season, have a record of 32 wins and 17 losses so far. , the number of games was the same as that of the Heat, but they lost 3 more games.

The records of the strong teams have declined one after another, which is actually also due to the growth of the strength of the mid-range teams.

There are dark horses in the east and west, such as the Nuggets in the West. Halfway through the season, the Nuggets have a record of 37 wins and 15 losses. Currently in the West, they rank second only to the Thunder and Spurs. This record is really unexpected. You know, the Nuggets Kim doesn't have half a superstar.

And the dark horse in the east is the Pacers. Everyone thinks that the Pacers will improve, but no one would have thought that the Pacers will make such great progress. In the first half of the season, the Pacers had a record of 33 wins and 15 losses, which was even better than the Knicks.

Before the All-Star Weekend, the situation in the league was confusing, and the Spurs and Thunder were in an unstable state. The Clippers have used half a season of games to show people that the strength of the Clippers is actually just like this.

On the eastern side, the situation is a little clearer. Starting from February, the Heat's state began to recover. Perhaps David Fizdale's training finally had an effect. From February 4th to February 15th, the Heat Played 7 games and won all 7 games. Among them are strong teams such as the Rockets, Clippers, Lakers, and Thunder.

With 7 consecutive victories, the Heat directly secured the No. 1 position in the East, but for the Heat, No. 1 in the East is not their ultimate goal.

The All-Star Weekend is about to start, and the Spurs players participating in the All-Star Weekend have also been released. Both Tony Parker and Tim Duncan will participate in the All-Star Game. Leonard and Anxi will participate in the Rookie Challenge. Anxi will also participate in the dunk contest. Parker There will also be a skill contest.

Of course, don't forget **Vich, **Vich will also participate in the All-Star Game, and he will be the head coach of the All-Star West Team.

As a result, the Spurs, led by Vicki, rushed to Houston to participate in the 2013 All-Star Weekend. (To be continued.) 8
