Chapter Thirty-One: No Missing Bullets
That's right. After the season starts, the fans may think that the team trains a lot, but what is really useful to the team is the training camp before the season starts. That is the critical period for training tactics and the style of the entire team. It is difficult to train during the season. The Spurs are considered good because of Popovich's majesty. Even in back-to-back games, players will take the initiative to practice at night.
If it were other NBA teams, the players would voluntarily train themselves, and their tactics were just written on the tactical board.
"all-right!" Jiang Yuntao's physical test data was completed. When he came out, the Spurs players had already started to run back and forth in the whole game and took over the board. The muscles and neat sounds of friction against the floor were not comparable to those of university teams. This is the most professional professional basketball!
Jiang Yuntao's eyes are glowing. It would be great to be able to practice here for a month, a space for improvement visible to the naked eye!
Wuduka handed the data to Popovich: "Jiang Yuntao, 20 years old, body fat rate 10.1%, height 191, weight 84KG, arm span 195, standing and touch height 2.24, running and jumping 82cm."
Popovich read it out one by one. He probably knew that the data was not working at the first glance, so he deliberately thought it out.
Jiang Yuntao felt a hundred unhappy. He didn't test any of his best skills. His startup speed and acceleration were the same as Ross' data entering the league, but he didn't test it today.
"The body fat is too high, everything else is average. Let's go to the next trial." Popovich made an evaluation and threw the physical test report aside.
"Popovich is Popovich, and he doesn't play according to common sense." Jiang Yuntao looked forward to what Popovich wanted him to do.
At this time, Borrego also came to the stadium. He was a smart-looking little man, and his image was completely different from Uduka. Jiang Yuntao knew him. Before the draft last year, he visited all the rookies at Texas University, but he didn't expect that he was one of the Spurs' assistant coaches.
"It's over, I've lost points again." Jiang Yuntao still clearly remembered that he played in a training game with a group of rookies last year without a single point. At that time, a group of NBA scouts were sitting under the bottom and watching.
He guessed right. Borrego opposed the suggestion of RC and Uduka yesterday. He went to find out the scout reports from last year. He was too lazy to write the templates on the scout reports from last year. Unexpectedly, he actually came to the team for a trial training this year. Borrego frowned and felt that things were not simple.
"Chinese Jiang, next, you will have a chance to shoot 20 three-pointers. If you make more than 15 shots, you will enter the next trial. If you make less than 15, OUT, sorry." Popovich looked at Uduka and RC Buford's inspection opinions on Jiang Yuntao, and said first.
15 are actually a bit tolerant for NBA players. Even the center can shoot very accurately during training. For example, Howard, a few days ago, a video of 9 of 10 three-pointers made.
Parker, who was drinking water off the court, couldn't help but complain after hearing the trial content: "Fortunately, I didn't have this trial content at the beginning."
Other players knew that this was probably the last time they saw this Chinese player. They had to find the feel of shooting three-pointers. Jiang Yuntao didn't even warm up, so he could make 15 of 20 shots as soon as he got up.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuntao didn't ask for any warm-up exercises at all. He ran to the field and turned around to ask Bobo: "Where is any position?"
"Whatever, just be outside the three-point line." Popovich's mouth curled slightly, and he let out a signature unruly smile.
"This young man, I'm so confident..." Danny Green also felt that Jiang Yuntao was too pretentious. He, the real Spurs No. 3D, dared not say that he could succeed, let alone a rookie.
"This may be a rookie." Mills, the Spurs' most accurate one, was waiting to see the joke.
"He is going home." Chief assistant coach Messina thought.
Then their chins fell to the ground.
Jiang Yuntao took the ball passed by Wuduka to him, stood directly on the sideline and shot a 45-degree three-pointer on the sideline. The ball entered, and the posture and feel were very soft!
Then Uduka passed him another 10 goals in a row. Jiang Yuntao received the ball from the outside and aimed it. He looked very relaxed and easy, 11 of them were shot!!
"Change a position." Popovich remained motionless.
Jiang Yuntao was in the top arc again, with a 45-degree angle on the left, and a 4-point shot on the bottom corners on both sides, making 15 of 15 shots. Each position was hollow and entered the net, making the touch smooth!
When everyone didn't react, he had already completed the task in the face.
RC Buford felt relieved, but he was quite incredible. He was interested in his defense at the time, but he hadn't seen him for a month. This guy's three-pointer is so accurate? There is a saying in China that he should not treat him with admiration for three days, and he is talking about him! He really seized the opportunity! Yesterday's three-pointer explosion was not accidental!
RC asked Jiang Yuntao to strengthen his shooting at that time, but he didn't expect to directly strengthen to the top level. I don't know which shooting coach he hired, so the Spurs must dig it up!
However, there is no sand in Popovich's eyes: "Yes, it's a bit slow to take action, you have to speed up the time of taking action."
Kyle Anderson, who heard this sentence, wanted to bury his head into the Nets, what should he do if he shoots 2 seconds before he can shoot the ball... Bobo's words are not targeted at him!
"Okay!" Jiang Yuntao seemed to be shooting casually, but in order to ensure stability, he aimed for a while. After all, there are times when shooting archery, so if you don't aim properly, but you must shorten the aiming time during the game and shoot, and no one will put a pitcher in the shooting space for too long.
"Is your template Curry? Can you shoot a few mid-range shots?" Popovich seemed not satisfied with Jiang Yuntao's 15 consecutive three-pointers, but actually inspired some fun to see Jiang Yuntao's mid-range shot level.
"Okay, no problem." Jiang Yuntao stood at the center line and received a series of incoming balls from several assistant coaches. He raised his hands and fell. The ball was accurately guided into the basket as if it was equipped with a navigation device.
The ball is perfect and the shot is full of force and the air is full of force!
You can raise your hand 10 meters away. What is this level?
Popovich finally stopped calming down and blinked.
The sound of sneakers rubbing the floor in the arena stopped.
Manuginobili was so excited when he saw these five goals just now. Oh my God, it took so long for the Spurs to meet such a accurate player during training. This is a perverted and accurate one!
20 shots, and the last 5 goals were still three-pointers at the halftime.
Is this fake? My Emperor Ama Zhang Tielin looked at his hands and then Jiang Yuntao's. It felt nothing different.
Now he is training for a P.S. All the Spurs players who were already running back and forth stopped. This Chinese player passed the shooting perfectly and looked forward to what he can do next.
"This... this... did he practice shooting from a long distance?" Borrego still couldn't believe it was true.
Chapter completed!
