new lord of the rings

Chapter 470
After defeating the Warriors, the Suns team returned to Phoenix. Zhang Xin took a short rest and rushed to the training hall early the next morning. He promised Kuzma to come over and give him advice today. Zhang Xin appreciates the hardworking young people , Not to mention for the team, even if it is purely to help young people grow, he is willing to mention it.

However, Zhang Xin’s idea is not just to make some points. He wants to help Kuzma make a training plan suitable for him in all aspects. It is very important for a rookie to play a role in the team. Training can make a rookie improve, but what a rookie needs more is a lot of games. This is the key to the growth of a rookie.

Games without training are not enough, but training without games is not enough. Training allows players to train by themselves. There are a lot of opportunities to practice, but games are rare for rookies, especially for the Suns. The championship team, in the championship team, if the coach is unwilling to use newcomers, then the newcomers are likely to be eliminated.

Under Zhang Xin's spur, Earl Watson worked hard to use new players. Last season's Hilde and Bro Gordon stood out because of this, but it doesn't mean that Kuzma also has such an opportunity. Now Phoenix's team There are too many people who can play. Everyone has their own competitiveness. They can play and contribute when they play. Kuzma needs to work harder if he wants to get a stable playing time.

When Zhang Xin rushed to the arena, Kuzma was already practicing shooting. Zhang Xin did not disturb him, but stood aside and observed. After watching for a while, Zhang Xin clapped his hands: "Kyle, timeout Let's go."

Kuzma turned his head and saw Zhang Xin, Kuzma smiled: "Boss, you are here."

Zhang Xin smiled, and looked at Kuzma in a daze. In recent years, Zhang Xin has become more and more powerful. People who are originally handsome will put pressure on people, and Zhang Xin is so handsome. Self-confession, Kuzma himself is a handsome guy, but when he saw Zhang Xin, he still had the idea of ​​self-confession.

Zhang Xin picked up the racket and took a shot. With both legs together, he raised his hand to shoot the basket. His movements were elegant and not too fast, but the series of movements were like flowing water. In addition, Zhang Xin was slender and strong, but not much. Flappy muscles, plus that handsome face, if there is a girl around, it will be a girl's heart harvester.

"Kyle, how did the assistant coach train you?" Zhang Xin asked.

"John mainly asked me to practice defense and three-pointers. He wanted me to be a space outsider like PJ (Tucker) and Kelly (Olynyk)." Kuzma said.

Zhang Xin thought for a while and nodded: "John's idea is not wrong. This is the fastest way for you to get a chance to play. Practice three-pointers and defense well. With your physical condition, you have the opportunity to become a top 3D player. , at least you won’t have to worry about not having a job in the future.”

Kuzma nodded excitedly. He was not unhappy because Zhang Xin said that he could become a 3D player. On the contrary, he was very happy. The proud child has attracted people's attention from the beginning, but because it seems that his potential has been exhausted, he has fallen to the top 3 picks, so if he can become a top [-]D player, it is also a very good choice.

Just like Klay Thompson is also a top 3D player. It is different to be able to enter the All-Star, and it is different to be famous. As for becoming a superstar, he really has no extravagant expectations.

"But..." Zhang Xin pondered for a moment. "Kyle, I think you still have a lot of untapped potential. I don't think you only have the ability to become a 3D player."

Kuzma's heart skipped a beat: "Boss, what do you mean..."

Zhang Xin said with a smile: "I think you have the ability and conditions to hold the ball. Although it is not enough now, you should be different from PJ and Kelly. They have been finalized. We already have two players of this type. You Being different from them, I believe that's the key to getting consistent minutes."

Kuzma was overjoyed: "Boss, you mean let me practice holding the ball?"

Zhang Xin smiled and nodded, "But not now, you should at least practice defense and three-pointers first."

Kuzma said anxiously: "My three-pointers have always been good, and my defense is above the standard."

Zhang Xin laughed haha: "Haha, Kyle, come on, I won't bully you with three points, come and try your defense."

Knowing that it was Zhang Xin who wanted to help him train, Kuzma was overjoyed and hurried over to grab the basketball: "Boss, please ravage me to your heart's content!"

Hey, this kid is still a jerk, and even asked me to abuse him.

Zhang Xin was very excited all of a sudden, Kyle, this kid looked handsome and pleasant, and it was quite fun to push it.

"Kyle, you have to be mentally prepared." Zhang Xin reminded.

Kuzma was stunned: "What psychological preparation?"

"Being hit by the boss to collapse and reshape the three views!"

Kuzma looked back and saw Hilde and Brogdon. Kuzma smiled and said: "This is just the boss helping me train, isn't it?"

Hilde and Brogdon looked at each other and smiled, "That's what I said, just think about it later."

Zhang Xin said angrily: "Kyle, don't worry about these two lazy people. After being trained by me for a few months, they complained endlessly. When they saw you coming, they shouted for relief. You must know the young people who want my training. I don't know how many there are."

Kuzma nodded quickly: "Boss, do you need to warm up?"

Zhang Xin took off his shirt and began to run around the court: "Kyle, the first lesson is that your body is very important. If you want to play for more than ten seasons, you must cherish your body. Warming up is essential. , and every detail has to be done well. Also, if you can do the floor flow, you can do the floor flow. If the flying style is not necessary, you should try to do it as little as possible. It can not only reduce the chance of injury, but also maintain your body. .”

Kuzma nodded again and again. He is also a fan of Zhang Xin. Since Zhang Xin entered the league, his style of play was not considered the best. Dunk dunks are rarely seen on Zhang Xin, but it does not mean that Zhang Xin's ball The wind is not gorgeous. On the contrary, Zhang Xin’s playing style is very gorgeous. Even without the ball, fans can talk about it. At first, the fans thought that Zhang Xin’s physical fitness was poor, but later they realized that Zhang Xin just cherished his body. Zhang Xin’s body The quality is at the historic level.

Although Kuzma has just entered the league, NBA affairs are all under the spotlight. As long as you pay attention, you can know many things. Then when young geniuses enter the league, they rely on their bodies and don’t take care of their bodies. How many players are there? It was due to injuries, so Kuzma could listen to Zhang Xin's words.
