super heavy artillery

Chapter 58

UCLA's next game is on November 11, so An Luo has enough time to do other things.

For example: go shopping with Tang Xiaoru.However, this is not an easy task.

Women, regardless of age, seem to be very interested in shopping.

For this phenomenon, An Luo once saw this description on the Internet: women shopping is like men drinking, it is just a habitual hobby, or a kind of leisure and relaxation after fatigue.When a woman sees a well-decorated store on the street, it is like a man seeing a bottle of fine wine. She is often excited and uncontrollable; and if a woman passes by a colorful store without entering, it is undoubtedly like snatching it from a drunkard. Like wine glasses.

Over the years, An Luo has tasted the bitterness of going shopping with women!Of course it was all his fault.

As long as Fu Yao returns to Sichuan, An Luo will not be able to escape the fate of going shopping with her.He could feel Fu Yao's enthusiasm for this matter.But he didn't understand that most of the time, she went shopping and shopping just for shopping.Look here, look there, maybe try it, but don't buy it.

Now, Tang Xiaoru, I'm afraid it's the same.When it came to shopping, her big eyes sparkled, which made An Luo panic.

First up is Rodeo Drive, of course they're just going to check it out!It's almost all the most famous brands in the world, which the two of them can't afford.However, the gorgeous and retro buildings and the brand windows with outstanding personality are good places to take pictures.

Next, they went to the Third Avenue shopping street.This is a place that An Luo thinks is more interesting. It is located on the beach of Santa Monica. It has a beautiful scenery and is very lively.And the things here are all young people, and the price is very close to the people, which is very popular among young people.

"An Luo~ Look at this..."

"An Luo~ Come and take a photo for me..."

"An Luo! You're so ugly! Delete it quickly..."

"An Luo~ Does this bracelet look good?"

"An Luo~ This is not good-looking, we don't want it. Let's go..."

"An Luo..."

……

Tang Xiaoru's crisp voice was heard all the way, making An Luo both happy and helpless.He felt that shopping was more tiring than playing ball games, and he really didn't know how much energy Tang Xiaoru contained in her small body.She definitely doesn't worry about running out of energy when she goes to play basketball.

After playing outside for two days, the two of them returned to school.Going to class, An Luo also has to prepare for training.Generally speaking, after a week of games is over, the coaching staff will not immediately organize players to participate in group training, including morning and evening, and players can arrange their own time.But such days only lasted until the day before the game.However, if you want to stand out, no one will slack off.

An Luo, he is different.It turned out that when he was in China, the physical training basically had no effect, and he thought it was the wrong method.Only now when he arrived in the United States did he realize that it really didn't help much. If he wanted to make substantial progress in this life, he still had to play with his life.Fortunately, things in the mind are still effective, such as tactics and coordination.

So he attaches great importance to every tactical training.Of course, the daily reserved items will continue, especially shooting. It is very important to maintain the touch.

After two games, Alford seemed to have wavered in his employment arrangements.He began to face up to the talent and performance of these new players, rather than completely looking at the experience of playing games.Most obviously, he began to design plays around Holiday, building an offense around him.

What An Luo never expected was that in this system, the three-pointer tactic was mentioned as a very important position.In UCLA now, when it comes to three-pointers, no one except An Luo dares to say that they are good at it.Holiday and Prince have three points, but in comparison, they look very poor.

Alford took some time to explain the detailed arrangement to the relevant personnel.In particular, I told Holiday and An Luo that they play very important roles in this system. One is the starting point of the offense and the other is the end point of the offense.

In order to test the practicality of this system, Alford organized a very formal team competition.Those five starters he lined up against a freshman team led by Holiday, plus black big man Tony Parker.

This is not a normal lineup.From the standpoint of height alone, he suffers a lot.Two big men are arranged, one is 6 feet 9 and the other is 6 feet 10; among the three guards, Prince is the tallest at 6 feet 3, followed by An Luo at 6 feet 2, and Holiday is the shortest at 6 feet 1.With two power forwards and three guards, there is no true center or small forward.Once you fall into positional warfare, you will undoubtedly die.

Alford understood, so he didn't even think about fighting positional warfare.This lineup has a very obvious feature, that is, fast.Fast speed, fast conduction, and fast shots, much like the small lineups popular in the NBA now.So he is ready to bombard!
The so-called bombardment tactic is a basketball tactical idea that takes high-speed and smooth rotation movement as the main tactical feature, emphasizes the speed of offensive and defensive transitions, and partially sacrifices the offensive and defensive capabilities of the half-court position.Players continue to create mobile opportunities through movement and conduction, and any player can choose the shot he thinks is appropriate at any time and anywhere.This tactic has been tested in the NBA. The most prominent is the Suns in the 2004-2005 season. Under Steve Nash's combing, the team has a record of 60 wins and won the league in the regular season.

However, there are two very fatal points.The first is that part of the team's defense has to be sacrificed; the second is that this tactic requires too much touch from the players.He can solve the problem of defense by relying on offense, but the problem of offense can only depend on the players.Fortunately, he happens to have the best three-point shooter in the entire NCAA, and the mid-range of others is also very good.However, in order to prevent these guys from wasting offensive opportunities indiscriminately, Alford only allowed two people to shoot at will, that is, An Luo and Alex, one inside and one outside.

An Luo and the others have never seen much of the world, and listening to Alford's tactical ideas, they all seemed to have been beaten.Especially Holiday and An Luo, the two of them will benefit the most from this system.I can't wait to start the game right away, pass the customs all the way, and then bring the NCAA champion back to UCLA.

This is a pain for those starters!They don't know the purpose of this match very well, and of course they don't know what will happen next.
