Chapter 1325 The Biggest “X”

The biggest "X"

The day before Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, three Chinese players signed up for the 1997 NBA Draft.

They are Wang Zhizhi of the University of Connecticut, Qi Chengyan of Syracuse University and Lin Junwu of Texas A&M University.

It is worth mentioning that the three of them are all underclassmen, and they all have market prospects in the early to mid-first round.

Among them, Wang Zhizhi has almost locked in a lottery position.

As an all-around tall ball-handler, Qi Chengyan is favored by scouts. If he can perform well during trial training, he will also have a chance to enter the lottery.

At this time, Louis' attention is completely focused on the Western Conference Finals.

Today, Louis came to the forum early as usual, but Lu Wuxia was still with him.

The staff of the forum have long been accustomed to this, because Wu Xia often comes to the forum to practice.

Whenever Wu Xia and Louis come to the forum together, the tragedy master will arrive in advance, as if they have made an appointment.

Then, Wu Xia will train with the tragedy master.

During this period, the tragedian's mouth was like a machine gun, constantly giving out advice.

Sometimes, Wilson and Bird will also provide guidance.

Today, the atmosphere of the forum seems to be the same as usual.

They didn't look like they had just been beaten head-on by the Trail Blazers.

The tragedy master called Wu Xia to his side and taught Xiao Tian Gou himself.

Then, if you have any questions, you can still find the Lakers' interior coach Kareem Jabbar to give you some advice. After all, he is the master of the unique skill of Sky Hook?

"Everyone is so quiet today." Wu Xia said.

The tragedy master smiled and said, "Did you see anything?"

Lu Wuxia replied: "Although everyone looks the same as usual, the feeling they give me... is not that relaxed and serious."

"Just be serious." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said coldly, "If we don't successfully win the series tomorrow night, we will be in big trouble."

Wu Xia expressed confusion about this: "Why? Aren't the Lakers leading 3-2? Even if they lose tomorrow night, there will still be a tiebreaker."

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar rolled his eyes at the 13-year-old kid, "If I explain everything clearly to you, it will be difficult for you to grow up."

"Master, what are you talking about?" Wu Xia looked at the tragedy master.

The tragedy master said calmly: "Because we are not a fully prepared team."

There is an answer that is still incomprehensible even though it is revealed.

Wu Xia no longer dwelled on the matter. He leaned on the tragedy master's body and performed a very standard small sky hook.

"Wrong!" Jabbar pointed out, "If you do this in actual combat, you will be seriously disturbed."

Wuxia expressed confusion: "Why? My movements are exactly the same as those of the master."

"What he demonstrated to you is a standard move. However, if you are facing an opponent who is taller and stronger than you, the standard sky hook cannot guarantee the stability of the shot. You need a little skill..."

Wu Xia is very smart and can do it at a glance.

As a person who wins at the starting line, what gratifies Lu Wuxia most to his father is that not only does he have good talent, he is also very smart and has an excellent golf quotient.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's advice is more abstract than that of the Tragedian, but the former is a "secret" that is difficult for a 13-year-old boy to understand, while the latter is a rule of thumb in terms of techniques.

Immaculately revealed, and immediately improved his sky hook, making Kareem Abdul-Jabbar nod with satisfaction: "If only Ben Wallace, that muscle-brained jackass, had half the understanding you have."

Half an hour later, the Lakers' tactical training session officially began.

Lu Wuxia consciously sat on the sidelines.

Louis walked down from the office building and announced today's training content.

There are three main points: 30 minutes of individual training, 20 minutes of group competition and 30 minutes of tactical movement training.

Just looking at the training content, there is not much difference from usual times.

After the tactical movement training, the Lakers continued to compete according to the idea of ​​the Cavaliers against others.

However, there is one arrangement that is different from usual, that is, Kobe and Rodman were put into the purple team represented by the Cavaliers.

Not many people take this arrangement seriously because personnel mixing is common.

But two people are serious about it.

One is Kobe. This is the first time he has been assigned to the purple team. He believes that the coaching staff will not do this for no reason.

The other is Ellis. Although he was not selected for the Cavaliers this season and was even squeezed out of the starting lineup by his juniors, he has always been a substitute for the purple team in intra-team competitions.

Today, the coaching staff suddenly assigned him to the yellow team, and then assigned Kobe to the purple team. There must be an intention to examine the latter.

At the beginning of the season, Ellis stated that he would serve as Kobe's supervisor. Only when the opponent passes his level can he be selected for the Cavaliers.

And Kobe's performance has always been unstable, with ups and downs. When it is good, it can be so good that Louis feels it is unreal, and when it is bad, it can be so bad that there is no reason.

In this state, not to mention Ellis, even Louis would not let Kobe join the Cavaliers.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment when the Western Conference finals entered the decisive stage, the coaching staff actually wanted to conduct a formal inspection of Kobe?

Of course, Ellis will not turn a blind eye to this, he will use all his strength to stop Kobe.

In the first four minutes of the match, the Cavaliers had a smooth ride under the leadership of Wilson and Tragedy.

Wilson is now able to skillfully activate the "Eye of the Storm" tactic and has the ability to force a break when his teammates are unable to turn around.

The Tragedy Master is a perfect support. As long as he has the touch, the cooperation between him and Wilson is enough to achieve the effect of 1+1>2.

Since today's match was mainly for inspection, Wilson and Tragedy Master, who played very smoothly, did not appear for a long time.

In the fifth minute, Wilson led the team to a 17-8 advantage and was replaced by Kobe.

At the same time, the yellow team also replaced Ellis.

The entire Lakers coaching staff stood on the sidelines and paid attention to this matchup.

As everyone expected, Kobe is independent and likes to be unsettled outside of tactics. Although he is often a destroyer of tactics, he can still make contributions.

With Wilson out, the Cavaliers' lineup lacks a ball-handling role, and Kobe should be more than willing to play him.

result?

Kobe is Kobe. For all Generation X players who are engaged in basketball, no one can interpret the concept of "X" better than him. He is the biggest unstable factor and the most nerve-wracking nerve in the professional basketball arena.

Louis expected that Kobe would do something outrageous. However, the most "extraordinary" thing he did on the court was to give up so-called "good opportunities" time and time again and pass the ball to a better position.

Compared with Kobe, Ellis' familiarity with the "Meteor" tactics is seriously insufficient.

On the contrary, Kobe, who is obviously not a member of the Cavaliers, can move skillfully, find his "whale landing", and achieve perfection between movement and stillness.
