Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems

June 2012, in the eyes of many people, was a year when the NBA changed its dynasty.

In the Western Conference Finals, the Thunder, trailing 0:2, pulled four games in a row and defeated the undefeated San Antonio Spurs in the previous two rounds.

Three young, promising players led the team to the finals.

On the other hand, the Miami Heat led by LeBron James was once again cornered by the Boston Celtics' Big Three.

With a 2:0 lead, they won 3 games in a row, and the 6th game was played in Boston.

James took the game back to Miami with a supercharged outburst that crushed the aging Celtics in Boston.

Then in the seventh game, with 31 points and 12 rebounds, he finally crossed the green mountain and entered the finals again.

Thunder VS Heat.

In last year's playoffs, they were all defeated by the Dallas Mavericks, which was the last afterglow of the last era.

Mavericks, Lakers, Spurs, Celtics.

Nowitzki, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett.

The long era that began with Jordan's suspended season in 1999 seemed to be coming to an end with yet another suspended season in 2012.

In 13 years, for the first time in the Western Conference, a third team other than the Lakers, Spurs, and Mavericks reached the Finals.

Coincidentally, the Thunder defeated these three teams in the playoffs, as if it was a new king slaughtering the old king's enthronement ceremony.

In 13 years, the East only won 3 championships, and spent the rest of the time studying with the prince.

The formation of the Miami Heat seems to declare that the rise of a super team in the East will break the overall suppression of the West on the East and return history to the glory of the East.

That's all it seems, and a new era is about to begin.

But under the curtain of the new era, Li Liang, an inconspicuous little guy who is working hard for the bottom pick in the second round and fighting wits with the Lakers and other teams, is still hidden in the corner and not known to too many people.

In addition to professional scouts, and some senior fans.

After finishing the Nets' trial training, with the release of Li Liang's scouting report, he received invitations for trial training from several teams with the last pick in the second round, such as the Raptors and Timberwolves.

Regardless of Ryan West's objection, Li Liang participated in the trial training of these teams.

His workout performance was exactly what the scouting report showed.

The two strengths of defense and three-pointers are outstanding, and they will be a good addition to the end of the bench.

Anyway, in the eyes of these teams, he is a supplement at the end of the bench.

After all, he is 22 years old and has not shown the slightest potential on the offensive end. He can defend and make three-pointers, which is already quite good.

Of course Li Liang himself knew that his abilities were more than that.

So on the whole, he still prefers to go to the Los Angeles Lakers for several teams.

In addition to Ryan West's Bole Zhima, from the perspective of economy, reputation, and strength improvement, the Lakers are better choices than the Nets, Timberwolves, and Raptors.

At the very least, Li Liang may be able to get more opportunities to play in the Lakers.

The Nets have 5 players on the front line, led by Gerald Wallace, all of whom are in their prime.

Li Liang went, and he didn't know how long the queue would last.

The Timberwolves have two small forwards, Mike Beasley and Webster, and the 11-year model show Derrick Williams is sitting on the bench.

The Timberwolves don't know how to use the two second-best small forwards. Will Li Liang have a chance after being the bottom pick?

For a well-known cemetery like the Timberwolves, Li Liang doesn't want to be the new wolf king, the savior of Minneapolis.

Not to mention the Raptors, far away in Toronto, 82 games a year, 41 of which have to go abroad.

Although there are many Chinese in Toronto, Li Liang doesn't like playing in cold weather, he is afraid of the cold.

So overall, the Lakers are the most suitable for him.

Now, he and the Lakers are in a slightly stalemate.

He did not go to the collective training camp held by the Lakers in mid-June.

Later, according to Zhu Shu's information, he was right not to go.

Because the main trial training were all inside players, Li Liang used to be nondescript, so he might as well not go.

Ryan West also guaranteed that he would pick Li Liang in the draft.

It is possible to trade up to the 60th or higher.

Anyway, Li Liang doesn't have to worry about his draft for the time being.

The NBA draft is not far away, Li Liang decided to end his trial training after traveling to several cities.

He decided to go back to Los Angeles, stay in Los Angeles for the last time before the start of the draft, and relax a little.

The Lakers team has a long and glorious history. As a second-round pick, he must not be looked down upon.

Because his name is Bruce Lee, the last Chinese with this name made all Hollywood people look sideways.

Before returning to Los Angeles, Li Liang entered the [Almighty King] system, ready to complete the task in progress.

After the three-point shooting and defensive ability are basically up to the standard, in addition to continuous physical training and finding someone to accompany him in the personal training system, Li Liang thinks about the next item that needs to be improved.

Turning around in his mind, Li Liang thought of a very important ability point - tactical movement.

While training with the Wildcats in Kentucky, Li Liang discovered a problem of his own.

Although based on the advantage of dislocation, he got some open three-pointers and performed well.

But in the NBA, it is impossible for him to have a dislocation advantage.

If he can't get open, his three-point ability will be compromised.

In the Lakers, their core is Kobe, Kobe... He doesn't necessarily pass if you have an open spot, let alone no open spot.

Li Liang felt that it was necessary for him to improve his ability to find open opportunities.

In the [Dimension 5: Tactical Literacy] column, under [Basic Attack Tactics Awareness], there are five improvement items: [Reverse Run], [Air Cut], [Space], [Pick-and-Roll Cover], and [Quick Counterattack].

Of course Li Liang chose the item [Vacancy], and his score for this item was only 27.

Li Liang has always been at a loss as to how to run open positions. He lacks offensive sensitivity.

He did not hesitate to enter the task of [Empty Space] awareness and ability training, only to find himself in a pit.

[Do you want to continue the mission? 】

【yes. 】

[Task: Coach Bob Knight's training course, task content: complete 15 hours of space tactics training, task reward: space tactics awareness and ability +20, get a special item. Task Difficulty: Rookie]

Just watched this task, it is the easiest one that Li Liang has done so far.

As long as you take classes and learn 15 class hours, you can complete the task.

And the ability value is added very high, you can add 20 points at once!

Perhaps the system also felt that Li Liang's score was too low, so it gave him some tasks that could be passed in a hurry.

But after actually coming in, Li Liang found that it was really not that easy to persist in this task for 15 class hours.

Just because the person who trained him was Bob Knight!

Who is Bob Knight?

The legendary coach in the history of American college basketball, and John Wooden was a bright moment.

And he is most famous in the basketball world, except for his perfect "mobile attack" tactics, his temper.

Slapping players, throwing chairs into the field, fighting with the principal, all in all a grumpy dude.

Li Liang's task for this training session will be carried out in the training hall as usual.

In addition to Bob Knight, he was trained by the entire West Point basketball team in 1969.

Li Liang, along with the players of the West Point Military Academy basketball team, received Knight's special training in devil tactics.

Each tactical training session consumes two hours, mainly training tactical moves.

Basically, every time you finish a class, you will definitely have a headache when you wake up the next day, so don't even think about doing other tasks.

Today is Li Liang's last training session, he put on the vest and shorts from the 1960s and 1970s, and stood together with his teammates.

First of all, we have to practice the queue, because they are the West Point basketball team.

Including Li Liang, there are a total of 13 players in the first team, and Li Liang actually knows one of them.

That is the current head coach of Duke, Mike Krzyzewski, also known as the old Coach K.

He is in the NCAA, and he can be regarded as one of Calipari's opponents.

Li Liang did not expect to be a teammate with him once. He was still the old K when he was young, and his hairline was still very forward at that time.

"Okay, today is my last tactical training class. I want to organize a confrontation match to test the training results."

Bob Knight was tall and strong, with a voice like a bell, and a bad temper at first glance.

In the previous class, the team members were basically scolded like grandsons every day, including Li Liang of course.

It doesn't matter to Li Liang, anyway, it's okay if he scolds right, and he scolds Knight if he scolds wrong.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if the system is virtual, and it can also earn a lot of anger points by the way.

Of course, Li Liang couldn't scold him too much, or he would drive Knight off the field in a hurry, and this training session would be for nothing.

After more than ten classes, Li Liang must admit that these older generation coaches are indeed capable.

It's not that the current coaches are not good, but that the famous coaches of the older generation, as the creators and perfecters of tactics, have an understanding of basketball tactics that is beyond the reach of latecomers.

Their tactical effects may have been surpassed by later generations, but the ideas they summed up are shining like gold.

"Moving offense" is a combination of some of the most basic offensive principles in basketball. To this day, many tactics are derived from it.

Li Liang was scolded all the way and learned all the way, starting from the simplest tactical transfer.

From the multi-directional movement after the cover, to the cooperation of three or four people.

I have learned several tactics that can create open space in the outside attack and run to the open space in time.

In the past in Kentucky, Calipari would not teach such details and basics, and Li Liang has always learned in a vague way.

Coach Knight whirred with a hair dryer behind him, and finally poured all these things into Li Liang's mind.

In the last game, Li Liang played very well.

After all, with his current ability, it is more than enough to play against the 1969 West Point Military Academy basketball team.

Although there was no three-point line at that time, Li Liang couldn't exert his greatest power, but he still enjoyed the fun of tactics.

As soon as the game was over and Li Liang had completed his task, Bob Knight stepped forward and hugged Li Liang.

In 1969, Bob Knight was only 29 years old. He hadn't gotten fat yet, and his hair wasn't all white yet.

His "mobile offense" tactics are still brewing in his mind, and he will go to Indiana State two years later, where he will start his brilliant NCAA coaching career.

He patted Li Liang's shoulder and said, "Come on, your journey has just begun."

Li Liang nodded, thanked the legendary coach for his help, and said, "Well, you too."

[Congratulations on completing the mission "Coach Bob Knight's Training Course", reward: space awareness and ability value +20 (47,), special item: Bob Knight's hair dryer. 】

When Li Liang saw it, why did he feel that he had gained another toy in 15 class hours?

【Bob Knight's hair dryer: It can make any player, coach, star, or celebrity feel the power of your trash talk. Explanation: He once scolded Michael Jordan, and in his eyes, most players are idiots. 】

Li Liang saw that this thing seemed to have some effect.
