One Guard

Chapter 14: : The boy who is eager to grow up

   Although summer has passed, the sun after three o'clock in the afternoon is still shining.

   On the outdoor basketball court of Butler University, countless teenagers are sweating under this scorching temperature. For college students who have not yet fully stepped into society, it is simply a very pleasant thing to spend an entire afternoon on the basketball court.

   Butler University has a lot of basketball courts. After all, they are a school that is qualified to play the first level of the NCAA league. The basketball atmosphere in this school is still very strong, especially when the Bulldogs just won last night.

   But in this one, there is a very special place. This is an open field surrounded by big trees, and the basketball court is separated from the outside world by high barbed wire.

   In the basketball court, only one person is shooting. But behind the barbed wire outside the basketball court, it was crowded with countless men and women!

   "Gosh, he looks much stronger than last night when I look up close!"

   "It doesn't look high, he actually blasted Harangodi yesterday!"

   "Hey, Tina, you will accompany me to ask for his phone number later, okay?"

  Countless people commented on the guy who shot the ball outside the barbed wire, but no one dared to step into that field.

   After last night’s game, Yiyang’s popularity has grown, but at least on the campus of Butler University, he is definitely a star.

   Today is the second day after the game is over. Stevens didn't arrange training, but Yiyang couldn't hold back anymore, so he planned to play in a street venue he was familiar with.

   The weather is good this afternoon, and there are obviously many people playing. But Yiyang looked around, and still no one stepped into the court.

   "Hey." Looking at the people twittering outside the barbed wire, Yiyang shook his head disappointedly.

   I voted here alone for most of the day, but I still couldn't make the game. Yiyang picked up the basketball and prepared to leave. It seems that today, this ball addiction is beyond the reach.

   As he stepped out of the basketball court, countless girls screamed exaggeratedly, and some boys took the opportunity to pat Yiyang on the shoulder.

  Yiyang, where did you know that after the game yesterday, no one in this school dared to play with him on the field.

   A guy who can smash Harangodi into a sieve, wouldn't it be self-defeating to fight him?

  Yiyang did not wave with his fans like other college stars, and showed a charming smile.

   This guy didn't turn his head back, he didn't even have an expression, so he just hugged the basketball and left.

   It takes a long time to adapt to a guy who is accustomed to loneliness to accept the attention of others.

After    far away from the crowd, Yiyang sat down on a bench, and his arrival naturally scared away the sparrows living here.

   Yiyang took out his cell phone, he rarely took the initiative to call people other than his mother. But today, he had to make this call.

   After dialing that number, the phone rang twice and was immediately connected.

   "What's wrong? Also." On the other end of the phone, it was Stevens's voice.

"Stevens, you said that you would remake a training plan for me. You said you would let me play professional basketball and play the NBA. But look at what we have done in the past three days? Except for the one last night. Aside from the game, I just rest! I may not have seen many things, but I am not a fool! I know what professional basketball and the NBA mean, and I also know that no player has reached professional basketball through rest. Domain!" Yiyang did not honor Stevens as a coach or a husband, because Yiyang is used to calling him by his first name. Secondly, Yiyang is indeed a little angry now.

   He doesn't want to waste a day in such a mediocre effort. How can he not put into action the things he has said?

   Stevens on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into an exaggerated laugh.

"Hahahahaha, you are the first person to give up rest after the game and take the initiative to ask for training after the game is over! God, there are people in this world who like to torture themselves. The reason why I started the game I called you to rest the day before and the day after, so that everyone can maximize their physical fitness and avoid injuries. If you are so persistent, then good. I will wait for you at the training ground at six this afternoon. Change your equipment. Also, do you want to train? I will train you!"

   "OK, six o'clock, training hall, see or leave." Yiyang hung up the phone and glanced at the sunny sky. It's time for the relaxing time to end.

  ※※※

   When Yiyang got dressed and stepped into the stadium last night, Brad Stevens was already waiting there.

   The two looked at each other on the empty basketball court, and it was not until Stevens waved at Yiyang that Yiyang leaned towards his head coach.

   "What do you think of your performance yesterday?" Stevens took Yiyang's shoulders and sat on the bench.

   "Don't tell me that dealing with reporters is the key to playing in professional leagues." Seeing Stevens's question is like yesterday's reporter, Yiyang couldn't help but cast a contemptuous look.

   "I'm serious, also. What do you think of your performance last night?" Stevens, who usually jokes, didn't laugh this time.

  Yiyang looked at the dome of the basketball hall and recalled his first ncaa game experience. "Not bad."

"It's not bad indeed. You blasted the college star of Harlan Gaudí, and you became a sought-after object by countless people. But you are still too far behind professional basketball." Stevens's bluntness, let Yiyang was a little surprised.

"Shooting. In yesterday's game, you only took one shot from the mid-range position. And that was your only shot in the entire game. You know your weaknesses better than everyone else, and your shots are not stable enough. So, I specially called Mr. Burris, our shooting coach, to teach you how to shoot from the beginning!" Stevens clapped his hands, and a strong bald coach walked out of the player tunnel.

   "Teach me to shoot?" Yiyang thinks this is really incredible. Shooting is the most basic thing in basketball. The way Stevens wants to take him to the professional basketball world is to teach him to shoot?

"Yes, kid, teach you to shoot! Your shooting moves seem to be very standard, but due to the lack of strict requirements and training, you have not done all the details in many details. This is why your shooting percentage is not enough. The reason for stability. I know, you would say that many NBA stars can't shoot. But believe me, those who "cannot shoot" in the NBA are absolutely accurate when it comes to ncaa!

   The times are different now, the kid, if a defender can't shoot, his development in the field of professional basketball will also be greatly restricted. Let's start with shooting, and when your shooting percentage has improved, let's start the next step. "After speaking, Stevens stood up and shook hands with the bald coach beside him.

   "I handed over this child to you."

   "Don't worry, he is not bad." The bald coach smiled slightly.

   Stevens knows that what college players want to enter the professional basketball world does not need complicated training. Basic skills, basic skills are what this group of geniuses lack the most!

   When you have the speed of John Wall, you will ignore your weakness in shooting. When you have the body of Dwight Howard, you will ignore your technical deficiencies.

   Genius players always have an extraordinary point, relying on this extraordinary point, UU reading www.uukanshu.com they can mix well in the NCAA.

   But professional basketball is different. Many NCAA star players will only appear mediocre after entering the NBA. Because of their talent, it is not surprising in the NBA. Yiyang is indeed fast, but in the professional basketball arena, there are many guys who are faster than him! Stevens does not want Yiyang to become a member of this group of mediocre people and to improve Yiyang's weakness. This is Stevens's training policy.

"Okay kid, let's get started. First of all, I want to make some changes to the details of your shooting movements. Don't be nervous man, as long as you are serious, shooting, it is always the easiest to practice." The shooting coach named Burris immediately So he plunged into work. He fiddled with Yiyang's hands, telling Yiyang where he was not doing well enough.

   Yiyang looked at Stevens's back and chose to trust this young marshal. Inaccurate shots? I'll show it to you!

"Right, also. In the future, whether you want to take a three-pointer in the game or in training, you are not allowed to take the NCAA three-point line as the standard. I want you to shoot one step away from the three-point line. You have to do it now. Be prepared for the NBA's farther three-point line distance, understand?" After college shooters entered the NBA, the three-point shooting rate was terrible. Such things can be seen by Burris.

   Yiyang looked at the distance a little too far for him, and then looked at the basketball in his hand. The kid takes off and shoots. Accompanied by the coach, he began to bump toward the door of the NBA.

   Stevens secretly saw Yiyang's performance in the door of the training hall. He tried very hard to repeatedly shoot the basket, and his patience was not like a child at all.

   This boy who is eager to grow up, the speed of growth will definitely be quite amazing...
