Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

"Shh!"

With a soft sound, the basketball penetrated the net.

Zhuang Yu moved his position and received the pass from Yang Jinsong again. Then he made another fadeaway jump shot with a large amplitude and a high parabola, and finally he hit the target accurately.

This kind of training without a defender is not difficult for Zhuang Yu, especially the mid-range shots, where his hit rate can reach over 90%.

However, this is training, and the hit rate in actual combat is naturally not that high.

Moreover, for Zhuang Yu, having a mid-range hit rate of over 90% during training does not determine anything at all. The key lies in actual combat.

A successful mid-range shot can only get two points, but a successful three-point shot can get three points. With Zhuang Yu's current three-point shooting level, if the hit rate of mid-range shots in actual combat cannot be maintained stably above 50%, then the cost-effectiveness is actually worse than shooting three-pointers.

Now his three-point shooting level has reached another level and it is difficult to improve it further, but there is still a chance for his fadeaway jump shot.

Moreover, this is his other killer move.

“If my fadeaway jump shot can improve further, then I won’t be afraid of anyone in the league, including LeBron James.” Zhuang Yu thought to himself. He was a little distracted while shooting, and with a final “bang”, the basketball bounced out of the rim.

"Hey, I was distracted for a moment and didn't make it in. I have to work harder."

Zhuang Yu took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and began to focus on training.

After a set of fadeaway jump shot training, Zhuang Yu signaled Yang Jinsong to stop. He didn't care about the hit rate because at this level, it was meaningless to study the hit rate.

What he wanted was a feeling like the transformation of his three-point shooting ability in the previous series against the Warriors.

pity......

"I don't know how long it will take for my fadeaway jumper to get even better. I should be able to catch up with Kobe or even Michael Jordan, right?"

"I have already caught up with Curry in three-point shooting, and I can definitely do the fadeaway jumper as well."

"continue......"

After resting for a while, Zhuang Yu continued training.

Today he only trained the fadeaway jump shot, naturally hoping that the fadeaway jump shot could be improved, so that he would be more confident in the next few games of the finals.

......

China.

The second game of the finals has ended, but people are still talking about it. The Lakers won two games in a row, which made the fans extremely excited. The championship is beckoning.

At the same time, the men's basketball training base.

A group of blue team players are training. They will soon have a series of warm-up matches and will also face screening and elimination.

At this time, Yao Ming also came to the training hall. He was not a coach, but as a lanxie official, he had the obligation to supervise.

"Bang!"

With a bang, Zhou An received a pass from his teammate and performed a two-handed slam dunk, which drew cheers from his teammates on the sidelines.

Yao Ming also smiled.

Zhou An's performance was outstanding and his strength was obvious to all.

Although Zhou An's playing time was limited in this NBA season, he played dozens of NBA games and trained with the team, so his growth is visible.

It is basically a foregone conclusion that he will be on the official list behind the blue team, and even on the Chinese men's basketball team's Asian Games roster.

What makes Yao Ming feel gratified is that even so, Zhou An is very serious in training, takes team training very seriously and has a good attitude.

Looking at Zhou An, he thought of Xiao Qingyang who was on the red team.

In fact, it was he who nominated Xiao Qingyang to join the men's basketball red team.

Although the Sharks Club has been sold to Zhuang Yu, Yao Ming is after all the former owner of the Sharks Club and a good friend of Zhuang Yu. Moreover, the Sharks Club was also Yao Ming's home team during his CBA period and the place where his professional career began, so he has deep feelings for the club.

So he has always been paying attention to the Sharks Club, and occasionally he would go to the club to sit and chat with Liu Qun, Ma Yuenan and others.

He also saw Xiao Qingyang's performance and knew that Xiao Qingyang worked very hard, but he was older than Zhou An and his talent was inferior to Zhou An. Moreover, he followed the CUBA route and was not as good as Zhou An, who started from foreign leagues.

Xiao Qingyang played very well last season, but no one suggested recruiting him - the biggest reason was that he was from CUBA.

Since no one else nominated me, I'll do it.

So in the end Xiao Qingyang was recruited into the men's basketball red team, and Yao Ming also paid attention to the red team. Xiao Qingyang's performance was pretty good.

Of course, I can't compare with Zhou An, but after passing the preliminary screening, there is still a great hope of being selected into the official list of the Red Team.

As for whether he can be selected for the Asian Games roster, that is hard to say.

"I hope he can be selected for the Asian Games men's basketball roster." Yao Ming said to himself, but unfortunately it was not up to him.

As for getting Zhuang Yu into the national team?

Not to mention that Yao Ming hasn't sorted out the internal affairs yet. Even if he had sorted it out this year, there would be no need. It's not the Men's Basketball World Cup, or the Olympics, it's just an Asian Games. There's no need for Zhuang Yu to step in. If Zhuang Yu needed to step in for an Asian Games, it would be too cheap.

Just as I was thinking about it, the training on the field was paused and substitutions began.

Zhou An was substituted. While wiping the sweat off his face, he ran to Yao Ming and called out, "Brother Ming."

Yao Ming smiled and nodded, praising, "Good performance."

Zhou An scratched his head and asked again: "Brother Ming, didn't you say you were going to cheer for Brother Zhuang? Why haven't you gone yet? Are you waiting for the home game?"

"That's not the case." Yao Ming shook his head. "Home or away games don't really matter, but I have to wait until they play two more games before I go."

"why?"

"The Cavaliers are not that easy to deal with. The next two games will be at the Cavaliers' home court. The Cavaliers should be able to win one or even both games. So there is no need to go to these two games. It won't be too late to go after Zhuang Yu and his team finish their two away games."

"Brother Ming, you don't have confidence in Brother Zhuang and his team, can't you just sweep the Cavaliers 4:0?"

"Haha, I also hope that Zhuang Yu and his team can sweep the Cavaliers 4:0. The current Cavaliers are indeed not as good as before, but they still have James, so they should play at least five games."

"Oh......"

Zhou An responded in a muffled voice.

He couldn't refute this. He certainly hoped that the Lakers could sweep the Cavaliers 4:0. Yao Ming also hoped so, but Yao Ming had been in the NBA and Zhou An had also been in the NBA for a season.

Only when you are in the NBA can you know how powerful James is.

Zhou An asked again: "Brother, how do you think the Cavaliers will play in the next game?"

Yao Ming thought for a moment and said, "I think the Cavaliers should strengthen their offense in the next game, especially three-pointers."

what?

Zhou An was stunned and a little confused. Yao Ming didn't explain. Zhou An was still young and had a lot to learn.

Sometimes you can't tell him directly, you have to let him think for himself and learn to think for himself so that he can grow.

Basketball is a sport that requires a lot of physical talent, but it also requires brains.
