NBA: I'm really the Chosen One

Chapter 217
83:79.

The Blazers lead by 4 points.

Stoudemire and Li Zheng just completed a ghost-like performance one minute ago. A solo performance by one person is not exciting enough. Only a strong enough opponent can force out a better self. Li Zheng let Stoudemire experience the pinnacle of basketball. And Stoudemire made Li Zheng take another step on the road of chasing perfection.

Although Stoudemire was in unbearable pain all over his body, there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth. Only those who have experienced the peak and strength will pursue their goals more firmly. Li Zheng told him that such a world exists, and today he personally experience the existence of the world.

"Amare? What did you say?" D'Antoni looked at Stoudemire in shock, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and Nash's face was also a little dignified.

"I said I can't play in this game anymore." Stoudemire said calmly.

Of course D'Antoni knows that Stoudemire is by no means a softie, he will not avoid the fight with Li Zheng, and he is not a bastard who sacrificed the interests of the team for the sake of statistics or reputation. Let his physical strength bottom out. If Li Zheng still has energy in this game, the Suns must accept defeat.

"I didn't expect you could really do it" Nash hesitated to speak, he suddenly felt a feeling called envy in his heart, God's darlings like Li Zhengxiaosi got too much favor, even their hard work will bring more Special sublimation, there is a real gap between people.

"Steve, to tell you the truth, it's hard for me to even move now." Stoudemire said with a wry smile. The conditions for entering the zone are extremely harsh, including morbidly hard training, a full understanding of basketball, and the ultimate pursuit. Desire to win, and specific emotional triggers.

Stoudemire remembered what Li Zheng had taught him all the time. At that time, Li Zheng's serious expression almost made Stoudemire laugh. In Li Zheng's mouth, zone is a natural reaction after liberation from restrictions.

Li Zheng does not agree that zone is a state, he is more like the feeling of loosening the dam, those seemingly surpassing his own strength, speed and even detached thinking on the court are just the cost accumulated through hard training, breathing, blood flow, etc. The instinct of the human body occupies your physical strength, your strength, and even your brain's thinking ability. The human body also has a natural fear of pain.

Zone is the key to temporarily breaking the shackles. Through a huge amount of training, the fear of pain and fatigue is numb, and those technical movements are engraved into the body instinct through acquired training, simplifying thinking, and the body secretes a large amount of hormones that can relieve pain and fatigue. Delay the arrival of pain and fatigue, usher in the peak state.

Li Zheng also said that this state is not his unique discovery, or even the original creation of basketball players. It is an instinct engraved in DNA from the hunting link of primitive times.

To live and work hard, to live is to enjoy leisure and dislike work, to avoid physical exertion, to reject pain and fatigue, this is human nature, but when life is seriously violated, what kind of strength can a person explode?
There is no definite answer yet, just like a mother can explode tons of strength when her child is crushed by a car, and she can't overturn the car that crushed her child again if she tries a hundred times; Like a father who was protecting his wife and children, even though his body was stabbed dozens of times, he was still able to subdue the robbers.

Basketball is the sport of chasing limits and perfection.
Zone is by no means a luxury for the few in the basketball world.

Willis Reed returned to g7 with an injured leg and scored twice on Chamberlain's head. "Reed's return" is not a zone; Isaiah Thomas' bravery when he scored 43 points in the finals with a lame leg is not a zone; Others have more or less entered such a world, but most people have only explored it superficially, until Jordan.

This is the content of the exchange between Jordan and Li Zheng during the meal. Li Zheng said it without any secrets. Jordan is the pioneer of the "zone". He defined the zone and was also the first player to actively try to enter the zone.

Jordan found that when his body fell into extreme fatigue, he would enter a stage of "forgetting fatigue", and his physical strength recovered after running. This is his true feeling when running. After a certain level, he can take shots from memory, and those shots are even more accurate than his usual well-prepared and aimed shots.

Based on this phenomenon, Jordan conducted in-depth exploration and finally found that high-intensity training can gradually adapt the body to the state of physical exhaustion, and can enter this state of ecstasy more. He named it "zone".

The second developer of Zone is Kobe, who is even crazier than Jordan. The scarier thing about Kobe than Jordan is that he won’t give up asking someone who doesn’t look as good as him for the sake of face or other people’s opinions. A true football fanatic, when he saw that he could increase the ball against Li Zheng, he didn't mind at all that Li Zheng was a rookie. He was already a famous star for a long time, but he set off for Seattle without hesitation and didn't care about the media and fans at all. their opinion.

Kobe's training methods are even crazier. Kobe's talent is obviously not as good as Jordan's, but his will to win is not weaker than Jordan's at all. After frantically learning and asking for advice from Jordan, he began to explore the field of zone, Tulong's 81 points, playing junior Niu scored 62 points in three quarters. It is inappropriate to describe it as a good touch.

The characteristic of Kobe's zone is that it lasts longer. Kobe and Li Zheng said that his zone can even last the entire audience. Although the conditions are harsh, it means that the state is not a short-term inspiration.

Compared with Jordan's zone, it is more like a fragment of inspiration. He will enter for a certain period of time, and then quickly retreat to the original place. The guy, the pleasure he can get is really not as good as an opponent of comparable strength.

Due to the lack of truly competitive opponents in Jordan's zone at the same time, although Jordan won two three-peat championships, Jordan has never encountered a real opponent in the competitive level, such as Barkley, Karl Malone, Drake Schiller is of course an excellent player, but compared with Kobe, James, and Li Zheng, Jordan is not really lucky. For people like them, the championship is of course very important, but it is better to compete with a strong opponent, no matter whether you win or lose. The team is happier.

If winning is perfect, then Li Zheng can go to the cba, or go to the European giants to chase the victory. What Li Zheng wants is a real opponent, and he can defeat them hand in hand with his brothers. This kind of championship is worth remembering.

On the other hand, Li Zheng combined the advantages of both of them. Li Zheng's zone was more like Jordan's fragmented zone, but it wasn't until Arenas' crazy provocation angered Li Zhengshi that he truly realized the feeling of the whole zone that Kobe said.

Stoudemire can feel that Lee is the player who is most likely to perfectly combine the characteristics of Jordan and Kobe's zone, but Li Zheng is not satisfied with this. The perfect state he talked about to Stoudemire is his real goal.

Perfect?

This word seems to be far away from Stoudemire, but he is very lucky to have Li Zheng, a patient mentor, who introduced him into this world. Jordan, Kobe, James, Li Zheng, and now he is also one of these people
