Healing Basketball

   Chapter 41 41. Start with breaking rookie test records

  I don't know why, but Randolph just thought 'Really? I don’t believe it’s so bad, I really want to fan it with a shoehorn.

  The players introduced themselves decisively and did not play any role in promoting team harmony.

   There are five people in the 'Olympic Tiger Squad', Ruben Bonteje has a lot, and the other two rookies are a good baby and a coward, and Liu Xiu is talking to Randolph.

  The Blazers players are more like Randolph when he introduced the faction division of the team to several new teammates, and they talk about themselves.

  Complete the collection in the morning, fill in the test or fill in the static physical conditions such as height, weight, arm span, etc., as well as the selection of the new jersey number, whether the veteran should change the jersey, etc.

Liu Xiu didn't go to measure the weight. He could know his detailed static physical fitness by looking at the basic information of the system. He took a pen and wrote it down. Tave Davodzik has retired the No. 13 jersey, the No. 24 jersey was worn by Quintel Woods, and the No. 1 jersey was worn by Derek Anderson... In the end, Liu Xiu chose the No. 9 jersey.

   At noon, the team members went out for lunch, and the coaching staff was still busy.

  Maurice-Cheeks looked at Liu Xiu's physical test chart 1, which said 6'4", and fell into deep thought - 6'1", I am only a little shorter than a 6'4" person?

  Maurice Cheeks is very honest in terms of height. The Players Times reported his bare feet height, 185 cm. Even when he was wearing shoes, Liu Xiu was a little more than a knuckle taller than him.

   This is okay, I can endure it, just a few centimeters.

   But Liu Xiu's weight column says 198 pounds, which is 90 kilograms.

  Maurice Cheeks thought of Derek Anderson, who weighed 90kg.

Although Derrick Anderson's height of 196 cm is much taller, it cannot be generalized, but it is 90 kilograms. Derek Anderson is like a bamboo pole next to Liu Xiu. No matter how wrong there is, it will not be so much worse. Bar!

Although Maurice Cheeks thinks that as long as a player performs well on the court, it doesn't matter. After all, he is an NBA player in the 1970s. He has seen almost all the darkest things in American society, so he does not have such a strong 'good person concept'. , but Liu Xiu's body shape, he still felt a headache.

  Actually, Liu Xiu has a lot of muscle mass, but the body fat rate is about 20%, which is the level of ordinary people, so it looks like an ordinary human body... That is, the 206 cm wingspan is very good.

   The wingspan of 206 cm doesn't seem like much, but Liu Xiu's wingspan height difference ratio is very good.

  Randolph's wingspan minus the height difference is similar to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu's height is quite satisfactory in the same position, and her weight plus wingspan... Although it is not as round as Randolph, not only is it not so round, but how can she look good, but height + wingspan + tonnage, really Nima is the point guard version of Randolph !

  Thinking of this, Maurice Cheeks is looking forward to Liu Xiu's physical fitness and technical test in the afternoon!

  …

  At 1:00 p.m., the Blazers players returned to the arena, and the coaches came earlier. The new season started, and all the coaches entered the stage of eating a little when they were busy.

The    people arrived, and the coaching staff began to organize warm-ups, group groups, and conduct various tests.

   Liu Xiu came to the Rose Garden Arena early after lunch, and before the others arrived, he had already started to warm up.

   He also called others, but no one came, and even Travis Outlaw wanted a little more rest at noon.

He thought very simply, with a little more warm-up time, the performance in the trial training might be better - or because he was lazy, he wanted to show his best side in this kind of link, and he would not think about how to show himself in the future. physical condition.

   Also, by showing his best side, the coach can make a more accurate judgment on whether to send him on the field when arranging tasks on the field.

   He wants to take on heavy responsibilities, but things that are beyond the scope of his ability, completely impossible, or can be done with a very low probability... He is not so mentally retarded and takes the initiative to take the blame.

   Group test. Official contract players plus training camp contract players. There are a total of 20 players. Considering the multiple positions, each position is divided into 4 players for the test.

Liu Xiu looked at the three competitors - 'Of these three, only Momonga is a pure point guard. The other two can play shooting guard, but they are all point guards. Wow, the salary of these three people adds up to 25 million. Bar? The richest owner in the NBA is not a hype. A point guard spends so much money. ’

   Liu Xiu knows how the Blazers' super salary of $105 million came from last season. The Blazers paid 60 million luxury tax last season.

  It's Liu Xiu's group for a speed test.

   Damon Stoudemire, very fast, even if he suffered a major injury before, he is very fast, absolutely top speed.

   In addition to a few competitors, there were other teammates watching. When Damon Stoudemire was testing, the teammates exclaimed again and again.

   The fastest team!

Jeff McGinnis, the team's oldest point guard, the golden generation of 1996, is considered a late bloomer. He only played a star performance for the first time in the 01-02 season, averaging 14.6 points and 6.2 assists per game. Signed him for $10 million in 3 years. Now at the age of 29, he is a lanky, high-speed point guard with a very good height.

   The speed of these two people, Liu Xiu knew at a glance that they couldn't match it, but it didn't matter. The court was so big, speed was very important, but it wasn't pure speed.

   Liu Xiu's third test, the performance was average.

Derek Anderson, this physical fitness is not so good, absolutely tall point guard, 196 cm, very light, 88 to 90 kilograms, Liu Xiu felt that the opponent's speed was not faster than himself, half a catty, secretly took a look at the training According to the statistics of the teachers, it is true.

   This gave Liu Xiu a bottom line - 'My speed is not fast in the NBA, but normally I won't suffer. ’

   From the information found, Derrick Anderson, a new teammate, is both online in offense and defense. He has no outstanding strengths, but he can do everything.

   Liu Xiu is willing to compare with such a teammate and is a good reference.

   However, everyone's opinion is different. Liu Xiu can accept his speed. Others see a point guard who is only 1.9 meters in shoes, and his speed is about the same as that of Derek Anderson, who is 196 cm. Competitors feel much less pressure.

  Non-top players have lottery rookies in the same position to join the team, and the pressure is not small.

  Rookies will always get more attention, even if they are weaker and perform worse, as long as they show their potential, they will get more opportunities.

   Damon Stoudemire is no longer a top player, and his sense of crisis is stronger than that of Derek Anderson and Jeff McGinnis.

   These two teammates are role players, and he is the core play style! Core players play, once the strength declines, it is really difficult to find a job.

   Now comes the strength test, the simple test method - the bench press.

   This time, Liu Xiu applied for the last test at the point guard, and Damon Stoudemire, Jeff McGinnis, and Derek Anderson tested successively.

Surprisingly, the 178 cm flying squirrel is actually the best bench press among the three. The 185-pound bench press is the test standard of 84 kilograms. Jeff McGinnis 11 times, Derek Anderson 9 times, and Jr. Momonga is 14 times!

  'It's not surprising when you think about it, McGinnis and Anderson are both tall point guards, but they are very light, both over 193 cm tall, but both weigh under 90 kg...'

   It was Liu Xiu's group strength test, and more people were watching.

   Just now, Liu Xiu's speed was average, and if his strength was average... This lottery pick would be in the water!

   After all, Liu Xiu looks like an ordinary person. If you have to say that he is fat, it is not that others don't know that he knows that he has a lot of muscle density, and that he has a lot of fat on the outside, but other people don't know!

  Looking at people's misfortune, they are happy-human nature always shines brightly.

  The Blazers are here, everyone likes watching their teammates make a fool of themselves and watch their teammates fall into the water.

  Liu Xiu moved her shoulders again, came to the bench press, and lay down with the help of the trainer.

   There are a lot of people around, and Liu Xiu can't control it for the time being. He has a good habit of using equipment to exercise without distraction, and do his best with his movements.

   This is all forcing! If you don't do this, you can't complete the pre-match warm-up training task, and you won't get the bonus at the beginning of the game.

   After confirming with the trainer, Liu Xiu, who was lying on the bench press, started the test, ignoring the external objects, and began to count in his heart...'1...'

In the eyes of others, Liu Xiu, who was lying down, had a dignified expression. Teammates like Randolph who played in the summer league together knew that Liu Xiu had great strength, but others didn't know that he was puffy, slow, and physically weak... Many people were malicious like this guessing.

   But some teammates who were unfamiliar with Liu Xiu showed surprised expressions - such a professional move! What a steady rhythm!

   This is not like a test, but a real muscle building!

The test is to do more bench presses at one time, so it will not come slowly or at a uniform speed, but will break out decisively when short-distance strength bursts are needed, reduce consumption, and perform more bench presses .

   But here, Liu Xiu maintains a near-perfect training speed!

   However, when it comes to the back, it's not just the professionals who are surprised, everyone is surprised!

  Liu Xiu steadily surpassed Damon Stoudemire's 14 times, and it continued to rise. At the back, the counting trainer became more and more excited!

  20 times, 25 times... When Liu Xiu's bench press reached 27 times, he broke the 2002 Carlos Boozer bench press record in the rookie training camp of 26 bench presses!

Before Liu Xiu, in NBA history, before a rookie officially participated in the NBA game, that is, in the test during the training camp, the historical record of the bench press test was Carlos Boozer's 26 times to complete the 84 kg bench press. push!

This refers to recorded records. Some players' tests may not be exposed, some players play casually in such tests, and some are very thin when they first entered the NBA and only grow stronger after a few years. …

   But no matter what, when Liu Xiu reached 20 bench presses, it exceeded Randolph's 19 bench press record in the Trail Blazers' rookie bench press team history in the 2001 training camp.

   At the back, when Liu Xiu's bench press number exceeded 25, all teammates held their breaths, waiting for Liu Xiu to complete the 'transcendence'!

  Randolph and others even shouted directly!

   In the end, Liu Xiu's bench press was fixed at 29 times. After he lifted it this time, he felt powerless and slowly moved the lifted barbell to the position where it was placed. The trainer quickly helped to put the barbell in place.

  Liu Xiu got up and moved his body. Randolph flashed in front of him at a speed that his size should not have, and shouted, "There is only 30 missing! Why don't you do 1 more? 1 is enough!"

   In Randolph's view, Liu Xiu, who has been steadily bench pressing, must still have spare strength, and now Liu Xiu's expression is still sloppy.

Liu Xiuzheng wanted to explain that he had done his best. He did this, compared with the fast-propelled bench press method in the test. In the eyes of most people, it is a better test method to make use of explosive force to quickly push. After a certain number of times, Liu Xiu is relatively more dominant.

   But at this time Liu Xiu received a system prompt…

   "Healing value +89, from Damon Stoudemire."

  Liu Xiu only noticed the expressions of the onlookers! Seems like a big deal!

For most NBA players, a barbell of 84 kg can be pushed up, and some people can even push a barbell of more than 200 kg, but the limit bench press and the number of times... 84 kg of barbell, for NBA players, it is a very scientific The bench press dividing line, the number of times plus enough weight bench press, rubbing love is more important.

Liu Xiu looked at the healing value given by Damon Stoudemire, and was surprised for a moment, and immediately realized what was going on... 29 bench presses, just more than twice that of Damon Stoudemire once!

   He knows that he has done his best, but others don't! Even Randolph thought he could go on!

   Liu Xiu responded to Randolph: "Enough is enough, 29 times, enough is enough."

   Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a new book investment, thank you for your support, see you tomorrow.
