Chapter 152 Being able to practice is also a talent

"Wow~ Hot, you are very good at creating selling points now, not bad, good progress!"

Early in the morning when practicing, I heard Ci Shiping pushing open the doorway.

"What? Meta, what's the situation with your words?" Tang Qian turned his head and asked after hearing this.

"Hey hey hey, it's hot, isn't it? You're so forgetful. Could it be that you've already aged before your time?" Ci Shiping took out a newspaper and said with a mean smile, "Here, take a look, is this the case?" You said that last night?"

This is a FOX sports newspaper, and the page Metta Shiping turned over was printed with a striking headline: Confidence or arrogance?The voice of the Lakers' No. 29!

Tang Qian followed the headline and looked down. After 1 minute, his face changed, and he couldn't help but said, "What the hell is this? Lakers No. 29 thought he performed very well last night, so he played for himself B-level evaluation??? When did I give myself a B-level evaluation? My original words are that I feel okay, and I can score 6 points. Why did it become like this in the newspaper? And this is for Mal Chin Gortat’s remarks, when did I express my disdain??? Even if I really thought so in my heart, I wouldn’t say that? Also, when did I say that I am not satisfied with the current state? The No. 29 rhetoric of the Lakers, fixed rotation and even the team's sixth man are not his standard, "sooner or later the starting position will be mine" This is a strong statement from Napoleon's hot money. Will he be able to fulfill himself in the future? What about? Let’s wait and see! Exclusive interview report from FOX Sports reporter Abby Hornacek.”

"Who the hell is this person? Isn't this distorting the facts and writing nonsense?" Tang Qian felt annoyed that he had been put on the same page.

"Abby Hornacek, she is one of the beautiful reporters of FOX Sports. Her father is Jeff Hornacek, a former famous NBA player. Taking advantage of this, she has been in the NBA basketball circle since she was a child. Little Devil's nickname." Derek Fisher is older and has a longer human history, so he stood up and explained to Tang Qian.

"Jeff Hornacek's daughter?" Tang Qian was slightly taken aback when he heard the words. He still had an impression of this name.Born in an American basketball family, his father is a basketball coach. He was selected as an All-Star in his life and also won two three-point shooting contests.However, the deepest impression on him still comes from Michael Jordan, the "Majesty of the Flying Man", who competed with the Bulls for the championship for two consecutive years, making the name of Jeff Hornacek into the eyes of countless Chinese fans. Of course, Most of the time they are supporting roles, and they are all somewhat sad foils.

However, this All-Star player who averaged 20.1 points, 5.1 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game during his peak period was extremely low in the draft. No. 22 in the second round was barely selected by the Phoenix Suns.During the period, in order to leave a way out for myself, I even interviewed for a job in an accounting firm while playing basketball.So Jeff Hornacek is definitely a living "inspirational story" in the 80s. Young people who worked hard with his career story as their goals were very common in Phoenix.

"This is really unexpected. No wonder she is still so young and can deal with NBA players with ease." Tang Qian said to himself with some clarity.

"Isn't it?" Fisher smiled, and said: "For her, NBA players have long been familiar with the strange things, so why can't they feel at ease? If you want to blame, you can blame yourself for being unlucky, hot, Who told you to bump into her!"

"Then she can't write like that? I obviously didn't say that..."

"Ooh~hot, you are still too young!" Ci Shiping interjected and said, "When dealing with these reporters, do you still expect them to copy and paste what you said? It’s a normal thing, otherwise there would be no explosive point, how would you ask them to go to the financial office to get their salary? haha~”

"Tang, I rarely agree with Mehta's words, but this one, he is right." Luke Wharton said in agreement.

"Then, how should I answer in the future?" Even though Tang Qian has the memory of two lifetimes, he has never encountered such a posture of long guns and short guns!

"Don't think too much, hot, this is not difficult to do." Paul Gasol said: "Either you don't think too much, just let it be, because no matter what you say, they will play freely and add oil and vinegar .or..."

"Or what?" Seeing Gasol's voice paused, Tang Qian asked.

"Either, you become like him and become a high-profile superstar in the league, so that reporters will basically not tamper with your original words at will. Because everything you say and do is a selling point, and there is no need to Let’s add another thing to the snake.” Paul Gasol said, “Do you understand now?”

"Is it... a high-profile superstar?" Tang Qian turned his head unconsciously, looked at team No. 24 who was standing alone in the other half practicing free throws, and nodded slowly.

……

Domestically, there are mixed reviews for Tang Qian's game.

A group of people said that Tang Ji finally started to attack. It can be seen that although his offensive ability is not strong, it is not as weak as the rumors say.A group of people said that it was just good luck, because most of them were forced to eat and squeezed, and no technical skills on the offensive end could be seen. This state of affairs cannot continue.

Post bar, forum, it's called a turmoil, all kinds of saliva posts, mutual spray posts, emerge in endlessly, such a momentum that will never give up until you win.

But debates are debates, but Tang Qian's extremely outrageous dunks, without exception, were all included in the NBA's top 5 shots of the day.Even this week's top ten balls have been booked in advance.

"It's so old and domineering! This little dunk dunks, it makes people's blood boil!"

Netizens have left messages.

"It's poor Er Fatty. This time, with Tang Qian's poster background, he can't escape."

"But I think we still need to be aware of the dangers. The performance of a game is not counted! Haven't you looked at Tang Ji's comprehensive statistics during this period? Almost all of them are terrible! Even in this game, his playing time is also very little. It's pitiful, this is a very unfavorable signal! I advise everyone not to be too optimistic!"

Someone stood up and poured cold water on it.

"It makes sense. Everyone supports Tang Jigui, but you still need to be clear-headed. Don't want an argument!"

"Yeah, Tang Kei's playing time is really too little, why doesn't Mike Brown give him more time?"

"There is no way. Have you read the Lakers' roster? The inside players are very crowded. If they are evenly divided, time will indeed be tight!"

"But I remember that the playoff roster seems to only have 12 players. At that time, there will be no so-called injured list and inactive list."

"Upstairs is correct, so the problem of the number of insiders for the Lakers will be resolved sooner or later, and the most likely solution is to lay off staff, saving time and effort."

"Hey, I hope Tang Kee can be included in the Lakers' playoff roster, but don't be like Sun Dasheng, who won't even be able to make it into the playoff roster!"

……

After losing to the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Lakers entered a relatively long rest period. They must make good use of this rest period to recover from the huge physical consumption of 5 days and 4 games.But this is for the team's main force. As for Tang Qian, there is no such problem. Anyway, his playing time is pitiful, so there is no need to consider the trouble of physical recovery.

After the 23rd, the Lakers' next game will be on the 29th against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

For five full days, the Lakers could practice in a relatively relaxed state.

February 2th, today is the first day of the "long vacation". In order to avoid the players from being overtired, Mike Brown ended the team training early in the afternoon. At the same time, he notified that tomorrow's training will not start until after 24 pm.

The Lakers players naturally applauded, because during the long game period, it is definitely a very precious and extravagant thing to get a rest.Although most people will not let themselves be really idle after training and rest, but instead go to nightclubs, bars, etc., carnival, euphemistically called, mental conditioning.

This is already commonplace in the NBA and the four major American competitive leagues.

Even if the head coach of the team is not playing too exaggeratedly, he will be too lazy to take care of it and turn a blind eye.

But there are always training freaks who will continue to practice more. For example, Kobe, although he also drove home, but according to Paul Gasol, the reason why he went home was not to relax or have fun, but to be with him. A personal trainer conducts more targeted solo exercises.

At the beginning, Tang Qian also wanted to learn from Kobe, training crazily day and night, but soon he found that it was difficult for him to persevere.Don't get me wrong, it's not that there is a problem with Tang Qian's determination and willpower, but his body and physical strength restrict his continued training.At this time, Tang Qian suddenly understood why NBA players are full of praise for Kobe's training. Could it be that these people really don't train hard and don't persist in training?No, absolutely not. After all, most of those who can enter the NBA are basketball geniuses. It is necessary to work hard to train this part from a young age.But why do they praise this man's hard training so much?The reason is simple. Tang Qian came to the Lakers and gradually discovered the mystery.

That is two words, able to practice, and it is beyond ordinary people, no, it is capable of practicing beyond geniuses.

To apply the words of Gary Vitti, the chief team doctor and chief trainer of the Lakers, his efforts surpassed his talents.

Among the superstars at the historical level, his physical talent is not outstanding, but he has another talent and can practice.

Moreover, it is an ability that ordinary people can't match.

In the NBA, almost no one can train at a super-intensive level and still maintain a lot of energy and energy at night.

Even the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan couldn't do it.

Of course, perhaps because of Jordan's talent, he didn't need to do this at all.However, what the "Zen Master" is most certain about Kobe is training, and he even bluntly said that this is where even Jordan is inferior to him. This kind of horror is ordinary.

In terms of the crazy degree of training alone, Kobe is the absolute king of the NBA.

It's not that ordinary people don't want to learn Kobe's training attitude, but they can't practice without Kobe!
Even Tang Qian, who has a "different space", can't do this now. Although his recovery crystal bricks have reached nine pieces, no matter how tired he is in a day, he can recover as before after sleeping all night.But the question is, does that also require him to have time to sleep?A day is 24 hours, it is impossible to leave it for sleep, right?And the most important thing is that once a person has been in a sleep state for a period of time, his body functions need to be slowly recovered. As soon as he wakes up, he will let you go for strenuous exercise. You are guaranteed to have the feeling of wanting to die, and the exercise state discount One third are all light.Therefore, after Tang Qianqian tried a few times, he decisively chose to give up temporarily. After all, his current stamina crystal bricks are only 6, and he has just passed the pass. When he strengthens in the future, he may be able to eat Kobe's training mode.

Otherwise, training alone will drain my physical energy, so what game will I play that night?Can't you make soft-legged shrimp?
This kind of example is not absent in the NBA. The most famous one is Pat Riley's "Devil Training Squeeze Method". The 1991 Finals is a manifestation. The Lakers were easily defeated by the Chicago Bulls with a big score of 4-1. .Later, "Zen Master" Jackson stepped forward to talk about this problem. It wasn't that the Chicago Bulls were too strong that year, but that the Los Angeles Lakers were too weak that year. That's why you saw an extremely slow "magician" on the stage of the 1991 Finals.This passage may be a bit ridiculous, but Riley's "devil training" is genuine. Of course, the results are not without, such as the Lakers' two consecutive championships in 1987 and 1988, such as the rapid rise of the New York Knicks, such as the Heat winning the championship. , Riley's "devil training" is indispensable. In addition to the team's record, the individual is under Riley's "devil training", and there is also the possibility of a rapid outbreak or a second spring.But there is no case, and none of them can last. Mourning's injury, Wade's injury, O'Neal's confrontation with Riley in training, all illustrate one point. "Devil training" works quickly, but it cannot last for a long time, otherwise it will be overdrawn , severe injuries.

Why did the Lakers fail to achieve a three-peat in 1989?Could it be that the Lakers didn't work that year?No, the Lakers that year were almost comparable to the Lakers in 2001. The Western Conference playoffs were overwhelming, and all opponents were swept out.So when facing the Pistons, everyone thought that the Lakers would win, and at most they were thinking about winning the next few rounds.But at this moment, Riley "no.zuo.no.die". Before the finals, he took all the Lakers to Santa Barbara for a week of closed training.The final result was extremely brilliant. "Magic" Johnson and Byron Scott were injured at the same time, and "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also suffered from physical overdraft, and his state plummeted. The Los Angeles Lakers were swept and lost 4-0.

Therefore, being able to practice is also a kind of talent. No wonder Pat Riley has stated to the media many times that he wants to coach Kobe and is willing to coach Kobe. Combined with his training methods, it is not difficult to figure it out.

But Tang Qian doesn't have this physical condition right now, so he can only give up temporarily.

……

That night, Tang Qian received a transoceanic call.

"Son, a person who claims to be the basketball manager and the Basketball Association came to our house today. His name is Chen Xin. Do you know him?" The person who called Tang Qian was none other than his mother, Mother Tang.

Tang Qian was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, then shook his head and said, "Chen Xin? No, I don't know this person."

"That's strange. He said that he came to look for you on behalf of the Chinese Basketball Administration and the Chinese Basketball Association. I have read the work permit and ID card. It should not be fake."

"Representing the Chinese Basketball Administration and the Chinese Basketball Association?" Tang Qian thought of Li Qiuping in China, and said to Tang's mother, "Mom, let me ask first, and I will call you later."

After Tang Qian hung up the phone, he immediately dialed Li Qiuping's mobile phone number.

"Little Tang? Is there anything you can do with me?" Li Qiuping opened his mouth and asked after connecting.

"Coach Li, I want to ask you something." Tang Qian said.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Li Qiuping said.

"This is Coach Li. Today my mother told me that someone who claimed to be the basketball manager and the Basketball Association has come to our house. No, I just want to ask, is this person sent by you?"

"What? People from the basketball management and basketball association? What's his name?" Li Qiuping's voice suddenly became tense and said.

"From what my mother said, it seems to be called Chen Xin." Tang Qian replied.

"Chen Xin??? It's Chen Xin from his office???" Li Qiuping had obviously heard this name before, and quickly said to the phone: "Is he here to recruit you?"

"Success me? I'm not sure about that."

"Little Tang, listen to me, you can't make any promises to this person, otherwise, it will do harm to your career."

"This, is it so serious?" Tang Qian couldn't help asking when he heard the other party's serious tone, "Coach Li, who is this Chen Xin?"

"He is the person above." Li Qiuping said: "And he is one of the brothers and confidants."

"Above? How many above?" Tang Qian asked.

Li Qiuping paused, and then said: "The basketball... top."

Tang Qian was stunned. Their family has always been "common people", so it was the first time in two lifetimes to face this situation.

"The most, the person at the top, why did you come to me?"

"If my guess is correct." Li Qiuping said, "It's to win you over and make you a regular player in the system."

"The establishment players in the system?"

"Yes, because of this, they can effectively control you." Li Qiuping said: "They will give you a lot of promises, including the treatment after retirement in the future, such as enjoying the treatment at the deputy director level, enjoying the treatment at the director level, etc. But in reality In fact, they just want to use you for their own use and become their own salary on the way to promotion. So you must not agree to this condition, otherwise Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Yi Jianlian will be your lessons from the past."

"I understand. I'll go and explain it to my parents right away, so that they don't agree to any request from the other party." Tang Qian said.

"Well, I'll help you operate it in China, so you don't have to worry too much." Li Qiuping said.

Neither Tang Qian nor Li Qiuping thought that this matter had just begun.

PS: The paragraph about Pat Riley is a real thing. One of the materials comes from the autobiography "Shaq Unedited" by "Shark" O'Neal. All kinds of drills and drills, and then repeat, repeat, repeat, the practice sessions in Miami are hell, we old guys are exhausted from just coping with the practice, how can we have the energy left to play well?So from this passage, we can see how terrifying Pat Riley's training is.Even Chaoju's physical fitness is hard to bear for a long time.
