NBA: I am the god of basketball
Chapter 116 National team report, Wang Chao playing point guard?
Chapter 116 National team report, Wang Chao playing point guard?
Both the Timberwolves and the Grizzlies missed Westbrook, and the Thunder, like the original history, continued to select Westbrook.
It is worth mentioning that the Magic originally had a first-round pick. Although the draft was relatively low, it was a first-round pick anyway. Among the players selected at the end of the first round in 08, there were also many high-quality players, such as No. 24 Ibaka was selected with the overall pick, Batum was selected with the 25th overall pick, George Hill was selected with the 26th overall pick, and Jordan Jr. and Dragic fell to the second round.
But it is a pity that in order to get Wang Chao, the Magic and the Suns signed first and then traded this year's draft pick, and this draft pick finally got the 27th overall pick, and the Suns used it to choose a For Dante Green's small forward.
Dante Green, Danny Green, there is only one word difference between the two, but they are very different.
Wang Chao was dazzled when he saw it at first, thinking that Danny Green participated in this year's draft, but after thinking about it, something was wrong. Danny Green seemed to have participated in the draft in 09, and he was the second-round pick The whistle was selected, and it was not popular in the league at the beginning. It was not until the Spurs that he gradually showed the outstanding ability of 3D players and was able to be reused.
As for Dante Green, who participated in the draft in 08, although he was drafted higher than Danny Green and was selected in the first round, his career is obviously far behind the latter. At least Wang Chao has no impression of him .
There are many great Greens in the league in the next few years, Draymond Green, Jeff Green, Danny Green, but definitely not Dante Green.
Therefore, Wang Chao can be sure that the Suns' draft is a failure.
And the Magic didn't get nothing in this draft.
Before returning to China, Wang Chao made a special call to the team's general manager Smith. The phone revealed that he was optimistic about the Slovenian player Goran Dragic, and hoped that the team could get a second-round pick through a trade. The draft pick, get Dragic.
Wang Chao's suggestion has been taken seriously by the management of the Magic team. Although it is not appropriate to dictate the team's signings just a year after joining the team, Wang Chao has just led the team to the finals and is in the honeymoon period with the Magic team. The management of the Magic team has great confidence in Wang Chao's future achievements, and now they are trying to make Wang Chao as comfortable as possible so that he can stay in the team.
Therefore, after Wang Chao made this request, the Magic went through a small operation to send a bench player in the team and a second round of their own, in exchange for a relatively high second-round pick from the New Jersey Nets, and Pick Dragic.
As a second-round player, Dragic's achievements are second only to Jordan in the second round of 08, and are better than 08% of the rookies in the first round of 80.
This is not an exaggeration at all. Dragic was selected to the best third team in the NBA, played in the All-Star, and also won a five-year contract of 5 million yuan. At the peak of his career, he averaged 9000 points and 20 assists per game.
Being able to get such a player with an insignificant bench player and a second-round pick is definitely worth the money!
The point guard position of the Magic is relatively weak. As the starting point guard, Nelson can barely be considered qualified, but that's all. Even next season, Nelson will usher in the most representative season of his career. , averaging only 16.7 points and 5.4 assists per game, and it is worth mentioning that he only made 45% of his three-pointers.
And this season, Nelson actually missed nearly half of the regular season due to injuries. If he played all 82 games and the competition period is prolonged, it is hard to say whether he can still have such an efficient performance, at least from his later years. Judging from the performance of the season, I am afraid it is unlikely.
Obtaining Dragic can further strengthen the weaker guard line of the Magic. Even though Dragic's first two seasons in his career have not reached the state of 13-14, how many games he played as Nelson's substitute? It can also play a role.
Taking a step back, even if Dragic really can't play in the past few years, that's okay. He is a second-round rookie, and his contract is only more than 100 million a year. As a cheap labor force, he can make a lot of money. .
Wang Chao thinks this way, and the management of the Magic team doesn't know Dragic's ability well. It's just a second-round rookie. The team already lacks guards. Dragic performed well in the Slovenian league. After a little research, general manager Smith knew that this player is indeed a good choice for the Magic. It can be used as a small investment, looking forward to a greater rate of return in the future, so without hesitation, the transaction was executed decisively and Dragic was selected in the draft.
As a traveler, picking up leaks is a great pleasure.
In the league's draft for decades, almost every once in a while there will be a draft pick that falls to the second round, but has a hidden calf with super talent that even the No. [-] pick can't match.
In 08, it was just a trivial matter. There were only two good players, Jordan Jr. and Dragic.
The strongest second-round pick in history is undoubtedly Nikola Jokic, who was selected with the 2014st overall pick in the second round in 41.
Before Wang Chao crossed, Jokic had won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years, which is the only honor among all second-round rookies!The No. [-] pick Wiggins in the same year as him, Tanhua Embiid and others were left far behind, and they were simply invincible.
When the future waits until 2014, Wang Chao will never miss the opportunity to pick Jokic, the king of value for money!
Of course, these are all things for later. At this time, it is only 2008. Jokic is only 13 years old now, and it is still long before he joins the NBA.
In 2014, whether Wang Chao was still with the Magic was a matter of debate. It is too early to consider this issue now.
……
At the end of June, Wang Chao returned to China and landed at the Capital Airport.
That day, the Capital Airport was surrounded by fans three times inside and outside three times, and even the police uncle had to be dispatched to help maintain order.
The moment Wang Chao appeared from the airport passage, the endless cheers could almost cover the noise of the plane landing.
Apparently, Wang Chao's three seasons in the NBA, with one championship and two sub-conferences, has brought his domestic popularity to an unprecedented level. Even if he can't compare with Dayao, he is almost the same.
Especially after Wang Chao announced that he would join the national team to win glory for the country and play in the capital Olympic Games, the number of fans supporting him skyrocketed every day at an exaggerated rate.
The fans of outside players and inside players are completely different. In Nike Adidas, it is recognized that the shoes of inside players are not easy to sell, and the size of the sneaker contracts they can sign is also very limited.
This is no exception in Huaguo. Of course, fans will be more inclined to like the playing style that they can imitate.
It is impossible for ordinary people to play high in the paint like Dayao, who can dunk with a raised hand and block a shot with a wave of his hand. On the contrary, Wang Chao, although 2 meters tall is quite tall, but The style of play is indeed a standard outside style of play, precise three-pointers, realistic fake moves and elegant mid-range pull-up jumpers, which make him far more efficient at harvesting fans than Dayao.
Of course, playing style and achieving better results in the NBA are one thing, and Wang Chao's higher appearance is another.
Among basketball players, Wang Chao's appearance is definitely the type that is more capable of playing. Whether it is viewed from the aesthetics of Asians or Europeans and Americans, he is a standard handsome guy.
Still the same sentence, young, rich, handsome and alive, where can I find it?
……
Wang Chao did not stay at the airport to interact with the fans who supported him. Instead, he went straight to the vehicle prepared for him by the Basketball Association as soon as he got off the plane, and drove to the training base of the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team.
As early as March, the Huaguo men's basketball national team had already started training for the Olympics, with the exception of Wang Chao, Dayao and Ah Lian who were playing in the NBA.
Ah Lian returned to the team to report at the end of April after the regular season ended, and Dayao returned at the end of May after a few days of rest after playing against the Lakers in the conference semifinal tiebreaker.
Wang Chao is the latest of the three, and he has not reported to the team until now.
But there was no other way. He participated in the Finals and played 6 games against the Lakers. By the end of the Finals, it was already June 6th, and Wang Chao's schedule was already very rushed.
"Wang Chao, don't be in a hurry to participate in training when you come back. We all know that the NBA playoffs consume a lot of players' physical energy. You have played so many games more than others. You must take a good rest and completely relieve your fatigue. Start training after your body is tired.”
The person in charge of receiving Wang Chao was a staff member of the Basketball Association. The other party had a very good attitude towards Wang Chao, and they had announced their arrangements for Wang Chao in advance.
It has to be said that the consideration is quite thoughtful. It can be seen that the Basketball Association attaches great importance to the Beijing Olympic Games. I am afraid that Wang Chao will not be able to play in the Olympic Games due to some injuries due to excessive fatigue. It can be described as cautious.
But Wang Chao still shook his head. "There is no need to rest. My own body is very clear. There is absolutely no problem. Time is limited. I want to train and run-in with my teammates as soon as possible. The Olympics are imminent."
Wang Chao, who had a potion of stamina to assist his recovery, didn't know what fatigue was. No matter what kind of fatigue he had accumulated, as long as a bottle of potion of stamina was poured down, he would immediately be alive and well.
He can't wait to hurry up and devote himself to training, and take a good look at the "huge sum" of 4280 points from the vending machine.
Wang Chao's professional attitude made the staff admire him very much. He contacted the leaders of the Basketball Association and communicated with the coach in charge of the training camp. After that, he took Wang Chao to check in and put away his luggage. To the training base of the Huaguo men's basketball team.
There are a total of 18 people in the Huaguo men's basketball training squad, and with the newly reported Wang Chao, there are 19 people.
In addition to Wang Chao, Dayao, and Ah Lian who have already landed in the NBA, there are also Sun Yue who has not officially signed with the Lakers, former NBA player Da Zhi, and other players are well-known domestic players, including Li Nan. , Wang Lei, Du Feng, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Xiaoyu, Chen Jianghua, Zhou Peng, Liu Wei, Xu Yong, Li Xiaoxu, Zhang Qingpeng, Ding Jinhui and Zhang Kai.
After these 19 people have undergone some training and warm-up matches, 7 people will be eliminated in the end, and the official 12-man roster for the Capital Olympics will be selected.
That's what I said, but in fact, there is no need to investigate the three active NBA players Wang Chao, Dayao and Ah Lian. All three of them must participate in the Olympics. The gap in strength of other teammates.
Wang Chao has seen most of the players who participated in the training camp, because at the beginning of October last year, the league organized the Magic to play a pre-season exhibition game with the Huaguo Men’s Basketball Team in Macau, although the Huaguo Men’s Basketball team was far inferior to the team at that time. It is neat now, but most of the players who can be shortlisted for the training camp are also the players at that time.
The arrival of Wang Chao was naturally warmly welcomed by everyone.
Wang Chao, who has just finished the NBA playoffs and averaged 26.5 points per game during the playoffs, is definitely a strong support. It's only 19.6 points. Of course, Dayao averaged 20 rebounds per game in addition to scoring close to 10.9+ points.
Wang Chao is very familiar with the players, but this is the first serious meeting with the head coach of the men's basketball national team.
The then head coach of the Huaguo men's basketball team was a well-known Lithuanian basketball coach, Jonas. His most glorious resume was leading the Lithuanian men's basketball team to win the No.3 bronze medal in the Sydney Olympics.
The head coach Jonas, the experience of coaching the Huaguo men's basketball team can be regarded as mixed. Under his leadership, the Huaguo men's basketball team successfully qualified in the death group and won the quarter-finals, tying the best record in history. Can be considered a success.
However, in the process of coaching, he inevitably exposed some problems, which caused the Huaguo men's basketball team to lose some games that should not have been lost. The big Zhi, caused the Huaguo men's basketball team to be tied and dragged into overtime, and finally lost the key game that should have been won.
After the game against Greece, Jonas also chose to give up strategically and put Dayao to death on the bench. The purpose was to be able to face the Lithuanian team he is more familiar with after entering the finals, and he could beat him.
As everyone knows, the Huaguo men's basketball team lost to Greece and entered the final with the fourth place in the group, and then met Lithuania in the quarter-finals, and was brutally slaughtered by Lithuania.
At that time, many people believed that Jonas was clearly a spy sent by the enemy to deliberately let the Chinese men's basketball team face Lithuania, so that the national team of his home country could easily enter the semi-finals.
It's just that these are just the guesses and imaginations of the fans. With the strength of the Huaguo men's basketball team, it will be very difficult to win no matter which team they face after entering the finals.
But it is an indisputable fact that Jonas is not liked by fans and even players.
After all, this guy, nicknamed the European Caesar, is a real tyrant on the court, saying what he says, insulting players, pua, and stress monsters are the most common things.
Sun Yue said in an interview later that he was scolded by Jonas almost every day during the preparations for the Olympics, and it felt very wrong even if he was not scolded occasionally.
It is undeniable that the Huaguo men's basketball team during the coaching period of Yunus can be regarded as the most prosperous period in the history of the men's basketball team, but does it really have anything to do with him?
At their peak, Dayao, Dazhi, and the United Arab Emirates were all there, and there were Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu and other outstanding players. Even if the domestic coaches were in charge of the 08 Olympic men's basketball team, the combat effectiveness was not bad at all.
The reason why there are so many analyzes on Jonas is that on the first day Wang Chao came to the team to report, Jonas gave him a blow.
"Are you Wang Chao?"
When Wang Chao came to the training base to report, Yunus was wearing a training suit, looked at Wang Chao expressionlessly, and said directly to Wang Chao as soon as he came up.
"I have seen your performance in the NBA playoffs. You are indeed very strong, and you are not far behind those NBA All-Star players, but I hope you can remember that this is not an NBA team, but Hua Guonan. The basketball national team is my team, you have to listen to my arrangements and obey my orders when you come here, understand?"
Wang Chao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Heh, this big guy really lives up to his name, European Caesar, really domineering.
It’s not that Wang Chao has never met a bad-tempered head coach. In fact, the head coach of the Magic, Stan Van Gundy, is a famous hot-tempered coach. But Wang Chao is the only exception.
Not only did Van Gundy not scold Wang Chao, he even publicly stated many times that his favorite player in the Magic is Wang Chao.
This is also human nature. After all, it is no exaggeration to say that the success of the Magic this season is all due to Wang Chao. Wang Chao executes well on the court and rarely makes low-level mistakes. Robotic, there have been very few games in which he's even shot below 40 percent all season.
If such a player is going to be scolded, then the opponent obviously wants to find fault on purpose.
Of course Jonas did not want to find fault with Wang Chao, but there is a certain degree of difference between the head coach of the national team and the head coach of the NBA, especially when the big-name players returning from the NBA return to the team for training, they always bring some The sense of superiority makes training very difficult.
He gave Wang Chao this prestige, just to make this new NBA superstar who has a super popularity in China be honest, and don't give him those moths.
And Yunus's thoughts disappeared in just one day, and even the eyes he looked at Wang Chao softened a lot.
"Wang, you need to know how to exercise restraint. You have only experienced the high-intensity confrontation games like the NBA playoffs. Your body has not been fully rested, otherwise you will be easily injured."
Yunus was convinced.
The daily training volume for the preparation for the Olympic Games is very large. Some players have complained for a long time, but Wang Chao completed all the training tasks perfectly on the first day when he returned to the team to report, and then when the other players went to rest. Gu Zi began to practice more, almost continuously.
Both Jonas, other assistant coaches and even the players were frightened by Wang Chao's desperate training attitude.
There is no head coach in this world who doesn't like to train hard-working players who can even be described as desperate.
Yunus's affection for Wang Chao was instantly full, and he even publicly praised Wang Chao's professionalism in front of all the team members.
"Everyone should learn from Wang Chao. Now I finally understand why Wang Chao can perform so well in the NBA. With such a strict professional attitude, anyone can succeed."
……
Wang Chao quickly integrated into the training rhythm of the national team, and in the process, he also discovered many problems in the Huaguo men's basketball team.
In fact, Wang Chao, who is a time traveler, has seen these problems in many previous reports analyzing the Huaguo men's basketball team in the 08 Olympic Games.
First of all, the biggest problem lies in the back line.
There is no problem with the forward line of the Huaguo men's basketball team. Whether it is Dazhi and Ah Lian at the power forward position, or Zhu Fangyu and Li Nan at the small forward position, and now there is Wang Chao, it can be said that there are many talents.
As for the center, Dayao doesn't need to think about it at all when he is under the basket alone.
The only problem is still in the back line.
Although there are many people on the roster, there are actually only three guards with sufficient strength in the true sense. They are Wang Shipeng who is the main shooting guard, Liu Wei who is the main point guard, and combo guard Sun Yue.
As for others such as Chen Jianghua, Zhang Qingpeng, etc., they should not be seen.
Therefore, these three people actually don't need the inspection part of the training camp, and they will definitely enter the 12-man roster. After all, if they can't make it, there is really no one on the guard line of the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team.
Even Sun Yue, Liu Wei and other point guards, in Wang Chao's view, are seriously unqualified in basic skills. No wonder the Huaguo men's basketball warm-up match performed extremely poorly before the Olympic Games, which provoked Jonas into a rage.
Several defenders struggled extremely in a slightly more intense game, and even the most basic thing of dribbling across the halfcourt was difficult to do, and they were often forced by their opponents before halftime and made mistakes status.
And now that Wang Chao has come here to see it with his own eyes, he is even more worried.
At present, Wang Chao's dribbling ability has been increased to 90 due to extra training in daily training. With the talent of the ball handler, the real dribbling ability on the field may still be a little behind the top defenders, but He has not lost at all to those strikers with strong ball-holding ability, such as James, Anthony, Durant and others.
In his opinion, even Sun Yue and Liu Wei, the main point guards of the national team, still have insufficient ball-handling ability. If they play an oppressive defense at the end, they will struggle to keep the dribble.
He doesn't have the speed to pass the opponent, nor does he have the strength to squeeze the opponent away. This is a consistent defect of Huaguo's traditional point guards.
Don't look at Wang Chao's body will always be at a disadvantage when confronting other NBA forwards on the front line, but in fact his confrontation ability is quite good. Years of training have made his strength reach 71. In the small forward's Even if the location is not top-notch, it is definitely at the upper-middle level.
This also makes Wang Chao not too passive when facing the opponent's oppressive defense.
At this time, Wang Chao already had a general training and development direction, and at the same time had some ideas about his position in the Hua Guo men's basketball team.
……
"Head coach, are you free? I want to talk to you?"
After the training one day, the players went back to the locker room to take a shower and change their clothes to go home and rest, but Wang Chao stopped Yunus who was about to leave, and said.
"Talk to me?" Yunus nodded slightly, "Okay, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"About my position in the team." Wang Chao said.
In the past few days, when Wang Chao was training with the team, Jonas arranged for him to be a small forward. Originally very good at off-ball offensive tactics.
This is actually not surprising. The core of the Huaguo men's basketball team's tactics is Dayao. Basically, the defender dribbles the ball for half the court, and then finds a way to pass the ball to Dayao on the inside, and Dayao will attack.
Other players try to open up space to provide conditions for Dayao's inside singles. At the same time, if Dayao can attract double-teams, outside shooters will also have a chance.
In addition, Wang Chao and Dayao's pick-and-roll tactics are also quite effective. Although Dayao's footsteps are slow, unlike Howard, who can quickly go down to the air to catch cakes after a pick-and-roll, but the huge body makes Dayao's pick-and-roll quality very good. Cooperating with Wang Chaokuai's talented shooting speed, the effect of shooting a three-pointer immediately after the pick-and-roll with the help of the gap is very good.
At the same time, Dayao and Ah Lian tried the elevator door tactics with Wang Chao. Need to rely on the penalty scale of the Olympic referee.
But Wang Chao feels that compared to these offensive tactics, how to solve the problem of the national team's defender is the most critical.
That's why he approached Yunus to discuss this issue.
"Head coach, I actually had an idea when I came here. I think the national team's current defenders, especially point guards, are far behind the world's top teams in ability. against."
Wang Chao's words made Yunus nod involuntarily.
Indeed, Jonas also knows that, so he always scolds Sun Yue in training, because in his opinion, in the entire national team training list, the only one who has the potential to be further promoted to become an excellent point guard is only Sun Yue. Sun Yue.
As the main point guard of the national team, Liu Wei has a limited upper limit, and it doesn't make any sense to force it.
It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. The Huaguo men's basketball team doesn't have an excellent main point guard. What can he do with Yunus?
But Wang Chao's next sentence made him a little dazed.
"So I wanted to give it a go at point guard."
"You... come to play point guard?"
Yunas looked at Wang Chao and felt extremely ridiculous.
A big man with a height of 2 meters 06 actually wants to play point guard?
Wang Chao's dribbling ability is very good, which Jonas has discovered in the past few days of training. In terms of dribbling ability alone, I am afraid that the entire Huaguo men's basketball team cannot find a better player than Wang Chao.
But Jonas has never used a forward as a guest guard for so many years in his coaching career.
In his view, players should perform their duties and shine in their best positions. A well-behaved forward who runs to play point guard is just messing around.
He almost subconsciously refused directly, but he couldn't help but pause when the words came to his lips.
"It seems...it's not impossible?"
The problem of Huaguo men's basketball guard has troubled Yunus for a long time, and he is really incapable of solving this fatal weakness.
But if Wang Chao plays the point guard as a guest, will the problem be solved?
Jonas has watched the video of Wang Chao's playoff games. Even when facing the top defenders in the league like Prince and Garnett, Wang Chao can still attack with the ball calmly and will not be affected in any way.
Speaking of which, the NBA is not without big guards over 2 meters tall. In fact, the greatest point guard recognized by the league at the moment, magician Irvin Johnson, is 06 meters tall.
But at the same time, Yunas hesitated a little.
It is less than 2 months before the start of the Olympic Games. The Huaguo men's basketball team has been training with the current lineup for several months. A sudden change in the middle may affect the execution of the overall tactics. More importantly, if this attempt fails , then he, the head coach, will be the first responsible person.
"Wang, I will think about your suggestion carefully, but after all, you are not a point guard. Point guards are not just as simple as dribbling across the half court and attacking with the ball..."
After thinking for a moment, Yunus finally did not respond to Wang Chao's opinion.
Wang Chao is not in a hurry. Jonas himself is a very controlling head coach, and he will not easily change his mind just because of a few words from a player.
But the cruel reality will force him to change.
For example, the upcoming Sri Lanka Cup and the next few warm-up matches.
The full name of the Sri Lanka Cup is the Stankovic Intercontinental Cup. It is an international competition hosted by Huaguo. Although the Sri Lanka Cup has no international influence and no gold content, some countries with outstanding strength can still be invited to participate every year. For example, in 06 Invited Germany, France, Greece and other strong teams, and Slovenia in 07.
In the Sri Lanka Cup held in 08, a total of four teams were invited. In addition to the Huaguo men's basketball team, there were also Russia, Serbia and Angola.
The above three teams are not the top teams in the world, but they all have certain strengths. The Huaguo Men's Basketball Team has long regarded this Sri Lankan Cup as one of the warm-up training games. Get off to a good start.
But the result was that the Huaguo men's basketball team ranked second in the Sri Lanka Cup with 2 wins and 1 loss, and the championship was won by Angola, which won all 3 games.
The subsequent warm-up matches between the Huaguo men's basketball team and Australia, Lithuania, Argentina and other teams all ended in losses.
It can be said that the performance of the Huaguo men's basketball team in the warm-up match was extremely sluggish, which once made Huaguo fans worry.
Wang Chao has watched these warm-up matches. No matter who the opponent is, the main reason why the Huaguo men's basketball team loses is without exception, all of which come from the guard position.
Whether it is Liu Wei, Sun Yue or Wang Shipeng, they are helpless when facing the opponent's full-court pressing tactics and make frequent mistakes. Dayao Kong has all the skills but can't wait for his teammates to pass the ball inside.
Wang Chao still remembers that in a certain 08 Olympic men’s basketball documentary, Director Yu said frankly that when the warm-up matches were lost to Angola, Australia, Lithuania and other teams one after another, the defenders of the Huaguo men’s basketball team were almost unable to dribble. .
So it doesn't matter if Yunus can't accept playing point guard now. When these games are held in July, the Huaguo men's basketball team averages more than a dozen turnovers per game. Naturally, he remembered the advice Wang Chao gave him.
As for Wang Chao, he has now found the direction of intensive training.
The first is passing.
As a point guard, lack of passing ability is absolutely unacceptable.
Wang Chao's current passing ability is 68, because during the regular season, in order to better play pick-and-roll tactics with Howard, he also practiced passing for a period of time, so the value is not low, but if he is a point guard Look, 68 is definitely not enough for passing ability.
Before the start of the Olympics, he must at least improve his passing ability to over 80.
The second is speed and power.
Wang Chao was ready to squander what was barely a lucrative balance.
What kind of speed potion and strength potion are all arranged, and strive to increase the speed and agility to above 90 before the start of the game, and at the same time further strengthen the strength and explosive power, so that his breakthrough with the ball is more lethal.
After all, this Huaguo men's basketball team is not the same as the Suns and Magic back then. With someone helping to control the ball, Wang Chao needs faster speed and stronger strength to deal with the pressure that the opponent may exert on him.
"If you want to improve your strength, you should also need to gain a little weight during this period..."
Wang Chao is 2 meters tall and weighs 06 kilograms, which is relatively thin. Of course, he is not particularly thin. After all, Magic Johnson, who is also 98 meters tall, also weighs 2 kilograms, and Kirilenko is about the same at 06 kilograms.
However, if you want to enhance your resistance and impact, gaining weight is obviously the best choice. Wang Chao’s preliminary plan is to increase his weight to 105 kg. This weight is not particularly large for him who is 2 meters tall, so it can be used without affecting the weight. Speed and explosiveness can also enhance strength and confrontation ability.
The reason why Wang Chao chose these two training directions is naturally his own considerations.
Passing aside, strengthening your physical fitness is absolutely right at any time.
Whether it is the NBA or other sports competitions, physical fitness is the most basic and important requirement. All players who have achieved certain achievements in the field of sports, without exception, are top-notch existences in terms of physical fitness.
LeBron James is the most intuitive example.
Someone once said that if aliens come to Earth to catch specimens, James is the best candidate. This is not an exaggeration at all. There are many people in this world who are stronger than James, but they can be like James, with both strength and speed. People with flexibility, flexibility and coordination, then James may really be the only one.
Wang Chao's current shooting ability has reached a very high level, with a full score of 99 in three-pointers and more than 90 in other shooting types.
In this case, if you want to further improve your offensive ability, you can only start with physical fitness.
Just imagine, a player with Curry's long-range three-point shooting ability and James' ability to break through with the ball, how terrifying would that be?
(End of this chapter)
Both the Timberwolves and the Grizzlies missed Westbrook, and the Thunder, like the original history, continued to select Westbrook.
It is worth mentioning that the Magic originally had a first-round pick. Although the draft was relatively low, it was a first-round pick anyway. Among the players selected at the end of the first round in 08, there were also many high-quality players, such as No. 24 Ibaka was selected with the overall pick, Batum was selected with the 25th overall pick, George Hill was selected with the 26th overall pick, and Jordan Jr. and Dragic fell to the second round.
But it is a pity that in order to get Wang Chao, the Magic and the Suns signed first and then traded this year's draft pick, and this draft pick finally got the 27th overall pick, and the Suns used it to choose a For Dante Green's small forward.
Dante Green, Danny Green, there is only one word difference between the two, but they are very different.
Wang Chao was dazzled when he saw it at first, thinking that Danny Green participated in this year's draft, but after thinking about it, something was wrong. Danny Green seemed to have participated in the draft in 09, and he was the second-round pick The whistle was selected, and it was not popular in the league at the beginning. It was not until the Spurs that he gradually showed the outstanding ability of 3D players and was able to be reused.
As for Dante Green, who participated in the draft in 08, although he was drafted higher than Danny Green and was selected in the first round, his career is obviously far behind the latter. At least Wang Chao has no impression of him .
There are many great Greens in the league in the next few years, Draymond Green, Jeff Green, Danny Green, but definitely not Dante Green.
Therefore, Wang Chao can be sure that the Suns' draft is a failure.
And the Magic didn't get nothing in this draft.
Before returning to China, Wang Chao made a special call to the team's general manager Smith. The phone revealed that he was optimistic about the Slovenian player Goran Dragic, and hoped that the team could get a second-round pick through a trade. The draft pick, get Dragic.
Wang Chao's suggestion has been taken seriously by the management of the Magic team. Although it is not appropriate to dictate the team's signings just a year after joining the team, Wang Chao has just led the team to the finals and is in the honeymoon period with the Magic team. The management of the Magic team has great confidence in Wang Chao's future achievements, and now they are trying to make Wang Chao as comfortable as possible so that he can stay in the team.
Therefore, after Wang Chao made this request, the Magic went through a small operation to send a bench player in the team and a second round of their own, in exchange for a relatively high second-round pick from the New Jersey Nets, and Pick Dragic.
As a second-round player, Dragic's achievements are second only to Jordan in the second round of 08, and are better than 08% of the rookies in the first round of 80.
This is not an exaggeration at all. Dragic was selected to the best third team in the NBA, played in the All-Star, and also won a five-year contract of 5 million yuan. At the peak of his career, he averaged 9000 points and 20 assists per game.
Being able to get such a player with an insignificant bench player and a second-round pick is definitely worth the money!
The point guard position of the Magic is relatively weak. As the starting point guard, Nelson can barely be considered qualified, but that's all. Even next season, Nelson will usher in the most representative season of his career. , averaging only 16.7 points and 5.4 assists per game, and it is worth mentioning that he only made 45% of his three-pointers.
And this season, Nelson actually missed nearly half of the regular season due to injuries. If he played all 82 games and the competition period is prolonged, it is hard to say whether he can still have such an efficient performance, at least from his later years. Judging from the performance of the season, I am afraid it is unlikely.
Obtaining Dragic can further strengthen the weaker guard line of the Magic. Even though Dragic's first two seasons in his career have not reached the state of 13-14, how many games he played as Nelson's substitute? It can also play a role.
Taking a step back, even if Dragic really can't play in the past few years, that's okay. He is a second-round rookie, and his contract is only more than 100 million a year. As a cheap labor force, he can make a lot of money. .
Wang Chao thinks this way, and the management of the Magic team doesn't know Dragic's ability well. It's just a second-round rookie. The team already lacks guards. Dragic performed well in the Slovenian league. After a little research, general manager Smith knew that this player is indeed a good choice for the Magic. It can be used as a small investment, looking forward to a greater rate of return in the future, so without hesitation, the transaction was executed decisively and Dragic was selected in the draft.
As a traveler, picking up leaks is a great pleasure.
In the league's draft for decades, almost every once in a while there will be a draft pick that falls to the second round, but has a hidden calf with super talent that even the No. [-] pick can't match.
In 08, it was just a trivial matter. There were only two good players, Jordan Jr. and Dragic.
The strongest second-round pick in history is undoubtedly Nikola Jokic, who was selected with the 2014st overall pick in the second round in 41.
Before Wang Chao crossed, Jokic had won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years, which is the only honor among all second-round rookies!The No. [-] pick Wiggins in the same year as him, Tanhua Embiid and others were left far behind, and they were simply invincible.
When the future waits until 2014, Wang Chao will never miss the opportunity to pick Jokic, the king of value for money!
Of course, these are all things for later. At this time, it is only 2008. Jokic is only 13 years old now, and it is still long before he joins the NBA.
In 2014, whether Wang Chao was still with the Magic was a matter of debate. It is too early to consider this issue now.
……
At the end of June, Wang Chao returned to China and landed at the Capital Airport.
That day, the Capital Airport was surrounded by fans three times inside and outside three times, and even the police uncle had to be dispatched to help maintain order.
The moment Wang Chao appeared from the airport passage, the endless cheers could almost cover the noise of the plane landing.
Apparently, Wang Chao's three seasons in the NBA, with one championship and two sub-conferences, has brought his domestic popularity to an unprecedented level. Even if he can't compare with Dayao, he is almost the same.
Especially after Wang Chao announced that he would join the national team to win glory for the country and play in the capital Olympic Games, the number of fans supporting him skyrocketed every day at an exaggerated rate.
The fans of outside players and inside players are completely different. In Nike Adidas, it is recognized that the shoes of inside players are not easy to sell, and the size of the sneaker contracts they can sign is also very limited.
This is no exception in Huaguo. Of course, fans will be more inclined to like the playing style that they can imitate.
It is impossible for ordinary people to play high in the paint like Dayao, who can dunk with a raised hand and block a shot with a wave of his hand. On the contrary, Wang Chao, although 2 meters tall is quite tall, but The style of play is indeed a standard outside style of play, precise three-pointers, realistic fake moves and elegant mid-range pull-up jumpers, which make him far more efficient at harvesting fans than Dayao.
Of course, playing style and achieving better results in the NBA are one thing, and Wang Chao's higher appearance is another.
Among basketball players, Wang Chao's appearance is definitely the type that is more capable of playing. Whether it is viewed from the aesthetics of Asians or Europeans and Americans, he is a standard handsome guy.
Still the same sentence, young, rich, handsome and alive, where can I find it?
……
Wang Chao did not stay at the airport to interact with the fans who supported him. Instead, he went straight to the vehicle prepared for him by the Basketball Association as soon as he got off the plane, and drove to the training base of the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team.
As early as March, the Huaguo men's basketball national team had already started training for the Olympics, with the exception of Wang Chao, Dayao and Ah Lian who were playing in the NBA.
Ah Lian returned to the team to report at the end of April after the regular season ended, and Dayao returned at the end of May after a few days of rest after playing against the Lakers in the conference semifinal tiebreaker.
Wang Chao is the latest of the three, and he has not reported to the team until now.
But there was no other way. He participated in the Finals and played 6 games against the Lakers. By the end of the Finals, it was already June 6th, and Wang Chao's schedule was already very rushed.
"Wang Chao, don't be in a hurry to participate in training when you come back. We all know that the NBA playoffs consume a lot of players' physical energy. You have played so many games more than others. You must take a good rest and completely relieve your fatigue. Start training after your body is tired.”
The person in charge of receiving Wang Chao was a staff member of the Basketball Association. The other party had a very good attitude towards Wang Chao, and they had announced their arrangements for Wang Chao in advance.
It has to be said that the consideration is quite thoughtful. It can be seen that the Basketball Association attaches great importance to the Beijing Olympic Games. I am afraid that Wang Chao will not be able to play in the Olympic Games due to some injuries due to excessive fatigue. It can be described as cautious.
But Wang Chao still shook his head. "There is no need to rest. My own body is very clear. There is absolutely no problem. Time is limited. I want to train and run-in with my teammates as soon as possible. The Olympics are imminent."
Wang Chao, who had a potion of stamina to assist his recovery, didn't know what fatigue was. No matter what kind of fatigue he had accumulated, as long as a bottle of potion of stamina was poured down, he would immediately be alive and well.
He can't wait to hurry up and devote himself to training, and take a good look at the "huge sum" of 4280 points from the vending machine.
Wang Chao's professional attitude made the staff admire him very much. He contacted the leaders of the Basketball Association and communicated with the coach in charge of the training camp. After that, he took Wang Chao to check in and put away his luggage. To the training base of the Huaguo men's basketball team.
There are a total of 18 people in the Huaguo men's basketball training squad, and with the newly reported Wang Chao, there are 19 people.
In addition to Wang Chao, Dayao, and Ah Lian who have already landed in the NBA, there are also Sun Yue who has not officially signed with the Lakers, former NBA player Da Zhi, and other players are well-known domestic players, including Li Nan. , Wang Lei, Du Feng, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Xiaoyu, Chen Jianghua, Zhou Peng, Liu Wei, Xu Yong, Li Xiaoxu, Zhang Qingpeng, Ding Jinhui and Zhang Kai.
After these 19 people have undergone some training and warm-up matches, 7 people will be eliminated in the end, and the official 12-man roster for the Capital Olympics will be selected.
That's what I said, but in fact, there is no need to investigate the three active NBA players Wang Chao, Dayao and Ah Lian. All three of them must participate in the Olympics. The gap in strength of other teammates.
Wang Chao has seen most of the players who participated in the training camp, because at the beginning of October last year, the league organized the Magic to play a pre-season exhibition game with the Huaguo Men’s Basketball Team in Macau, although the Huaguo Men’s Basketball team was far inferior to the team at that time. It is neat now, but most of the players who can be shortlisted for the training camp are also the players at that time.
The arrival of Wang Chao was naturally warmly welcomed by everyone.
Wang Chao, who has just finished the NBA playoffs and averaged 26.5 points per game during the playoffs, is definitely a strong support. It's only 19.6 points. Of course, Dayao averaged 20 rebounds per game in addition to scoring close to 10.9+ points.
Wang Chao is very familiar with the players, but this is the first serious meeting with the head coach of the men's basketball national team.
The then head coach of the Huaguo men's basketball team was a well-known Lithuanian basketball coach, Jonas. His most glorious resume was leading the Lithuanian men's basketball team to win the No.3 bronze medal in the Sydney Olympics.
The head coach Jonas, the experience of coaching the Huaguo men's basketball team can be regarded as mixed. Under his leadership, the Huaguo men's basketball team successfully qualified in the death group and won the quarter-finals, tying the best record in history. Can be considered a success.
However, in the process of coaching, he inevitably exposed some problems, which caused the Huaguo men's basketball team to lose some games that should not have been lost. The big Zhi, caused the Huaguo men's basketball team to be tied and dragged into overtime, and finally lost the key game that should have been won.
After the game against Greece, Jonas also chose to give up strategically and put Dayao to death on the bench. The purpose was to be able to face the Lithuanian team he is more familiar with after entering the finals, and he could beat him.
As everyone knows, the Huaguo men's basketball team lost to Greece and entered the final with the fourth place in the group, and then met Lithuania in the quarter-finals, and was brutally slaughtered by Lithuania.
At that time, many people believed that Jonas was clearly a spy sent by the enemy to deliberately let the Chinese men's basketball team face Lithuania, so that the national team of his home country could easily enter the semi-finals.
It's just that these are just the guesses and imaginations of the fans. With the strength of the Huaguo men's basketball team, it will be very difficult to win no matter which team they face after entering the finals.
But it is an indisputable fact that Jonas is not liked by fans and even players.
After all, this guy, nicknamed the European Caesar, is a real tyrant on the court, saying what he says, insulting players, pua, and stress monsters are the most common things.
Sun Yue said in an interview later that he was scolded by Jonas almost every day during the preparations for the Olympics, and it felt very wrong even if he was not scolded occasionally.
It is undeniable that the Huaguo men's basketball team during the coaching period of Yunus can be regarded as the most prosperous period in the history of the men's basketball team, but does it really have anything to do with him?
At their peak, Dayao, Dazhi, and the United Arab Emirates were all there, and there were Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu and other outstanding players. Even if the domestic coaches were in charge of the 08 Olympic men's basketball team, the combat effectiveness was not bad at all.
The reason why there are so many analyzes on Jonas is that on the first day Wang Chao came to the team to report, Jonas gave him a blow.
"Are you Wang Chao?"
When Wang Chao came to the training base to report, Yunus was wearing a training suit, looked at Wang Chao expressionlessly, and said directly to Wang Chao as soon as he came up.
"I have seen your performance in the NBA playoffs. You are indeed very strong, and you are not far behind those NBA All-Star players, but I hope you can remember that this is not an NBA team, but Hua Guonan. The basketball national team is my team, you have to listen to my arrangements and obey my orders when you come here, understand?"
Wang Chao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Heh, this big guy really lives up to his name, European Caesar, really domineering.
It’s not that Wang Chao has never met a bad-tempered head coach. In fact, the head coach of the Magic, Stan Van Gundy, is a famous hot-tempered coach. But Wang Chao is the only exception.
Not only did Van Gundy not scold Wang Chao, he even publicly stated many times that his favorite player in the Magic is Wang Chao.
This is also human nature. After all, it is no exaggeration to say that the success of the Magic this season is all due to Wang Chao. Wang Chao executes well on the court and rarely makes low-level mistakes. Robotic, there have been very few games in which he's even shot below 40 percent all season.
If such a player is going to be scolded, then the opponent obviously wants to find fault on purpose.
Of course Jonas did not want to find fault with Wang Chao, but there is a certain degree of difference between the head coach of the national team and the head coach of the NBA, especially when the big-name players returning from the NBA return to the team for training, they always bring some The sense of superiority makes training very difficult.
He gave Wang Chao this prestige, just to make this new NBA superstar who has a super popularity in China be honest, and don't give him those moths.
And Yunus's thoughts disappeared in just one day, and even the eyes he looked at Wang Chao softened a lot.
"Wang, you need to know how to exercise restraint. You have only experienced the high-intensity confrontation games like the NBA playoffs. Your body has not been fully rested, otherwise you will be easily injured."
Yunus was convinced.
The daily training volume for the preparation for the Olympic Games is very large. Some players have complained for a long time, but Wang Chao completed all the training tasks perfectly on the first day when he returned to the team to report, and then when the other players went to rest. Gu Zi began to practice more, almost continuously.
Both Jonas, other assistant coaches and even the players were frightened by Wang Chao's desperate training attitude.
There is no head coach in this world who doesn't like to train hard-working players who can even be described as desperate.
Yunus's affection for Wang Chao was instantly full, and he even publicly praised Wang Chao's professionalism in front of all the team members.
"Everyone should learn from Wang Chao. Now I finally understand why Wang Chao can perform so well in the NBA. With such a strict professional attitude, anyone can succeed."
……
Wang Chao quickly integrated into the training rhythm of the national team, and in the process, he also discovered many problems in the Huaguo men's basketball team.
In fact, Wang Chao, who is a time traveler, has seen these problems in many previous reports analyzing the Huaguo men's basketball team in the 08 Olympic Games.
First of all, the biggest problem lies in the back line.
There is no problem with the forward line of the Huaguo men's basketball team. Whether it is Dazhi and Ah Lian at the power forward position, or Zhu Fangyu and Li Nan at the small forward position, and now there is Wang Chao, it can be said that there are many talents.
As for the center, Dayao doesn't need to think about it at all when he is under the basket alone.
The only problem is still in the back line.
Although there are many people on the roster, there are actually only three guards with sufficient strength in the true sense. They are Wang Shipeng who is the main shooting guard, Liu Wei who is the main point guard, and combo guard Sun Yue.
As for others such as Chen Jianghua, Zhang Qingpeng, etc., they should not be seen.
Therefore, these three people actually don't need the inspection part of the training camp, and they will definitely enter the 12-man roster. After all, if they can't make it, there is really no one on the guard line of the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team.
Even Sun Yue, Liu Wei and other point guards, in Wang Chao's view, are seriously unqualified in basic skills. No wonder the Huaguo men's basketball warm-up match performed extremely poorly before the Olympic Games, which provoked Jonas into a rage.
Several defenders struggled extremely in a slightly more intense game, and even the most basic thing of dribbling across the halfcourt was difficult to do, and they were often forced by their opponents before halftime and made mistakes status.
And now that Wang Chao has come here to see it with his own eyes, he is even more worried.
At present, Wang Chao's dribbling ability has been increased to 90 due to extra training in daily training. With the talent of the ball handler, the real dribbling ability on the field may still be a little behind the top defenders, but He has not lost at all to those strikers with strong ball-holding ability, such as James, Anthony, Durant and others.
In his opinion, even Sun Yue and Liu Wei, the main point guards of the national team, still have insufficient ball-handling ability. If they play an oppressive defense at the end, they will struggle to keep the dribble.
He doesn't have the speed to pass the opponent, nor does he have the strength to squeeze the opponent away. This is a consistent defect of Huaguo's traditional point guards.
Don't look at Wang Chao's body will always be at a disadvantage when confronting other NBA forwards on the front line, but in fact his confrontation ability is quite good. Years of training have made his strength reach 71. In the small forward's Even if the location is not top-notch, it is definitely at the upper-middle level.
This also makes Wang Chao not too passive when facing the opponent's oppressive defense.
At this time, Wang Chao already had a general training and development direction, and at the same time had some ideas about his position in the Hua Guo men's basketball team.
……
"Head coach, are you free? I want to talk to you?"
After the training one day, the players went back to the locker room to take a shower and change their clothes to go home and rest, but Wang Chao stopped Yunus who was about to leave, and said.
"Talk to me?" Yunus nodded slightly, "Okay, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"About my position in the team." Wang Chao said.
In the past few days, when Wang Chao was training with the team, Jonas arranged for him to be a small forward. Originally very good at off-ball offensive tactics.
This is actually not surprising. The core of the Huaguo men's basketball team's tactics is Dayao. Basically, the defender dribbles the ball for half the court, and then finds a way to pass the ball to Dayao on the inside, and Dayao will attack.
Other players try to open up space to provide conditions for Dayao's inside singles. At the same time, if Dayao can attract double-teams, outside shooters will also have a chance.
In addition, Wang Chao and Dayao's pick-and-roll tactics are also quite effective. Although Dayao's footsteps are slow, unlike Howard, who can quickly go down to the air to catch cakes after a pick-and-roll, but the huge body makes Dayao's pick-and-roll quality very good. Cooperating with Wang Chaokuai's talented shooting speed, the effect of shooting a three-pointer immediately after the pick-and-roll with the help of the gap is very good.
At the same time, Dayao and Ah Lian tried the elevator door tactics with Wang Chao. Need to rely on the penalty scale of the Olympic referee.
But Wang Chao feels that compared to these offensive tactics, how to solve the problem of the national team's defender is the most critical.
That's why he approached Yunus to discuss this issue.
"Head coach, I actually had an idea when I came here. I think the national team's current defenders, especially point guards, are far behind the world's top teams in ability. against."
Wang Chao's words made Yunus nod involuntarily.
Indeed, Jonas also knows that, so he always scolds Sun Yue in training, because in his opinion, in the entire national team training list, the only one who has the potential to be further promoted to become an excellent point guard is only Sun Yue. Sun Yue.
As the main point guard of the national team, Liu Wei has a limited upper limit, and it doesn't make any sense to force it.
It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. The Huaguo men's basketball team doesn't have an excellent main point guard. What can he do with Yunus?
But Wang Chao's next sentence made him a little dazed.
"So I wanted to give it a go at point guard."
"You... come to play point guard?"
Yunas looked at Wang Chao and felt extremely ridiculous.
A big man with a height of 2 meters 06 actually wants to play point guard?
Wang Chao's dribbling ability is very good, which Jonas has discovered in the past few days of training. In terms of dribbling ability alone, I am afraid that the entire Huaguo men's basketball team cannot find a better player than Wang Chao.
But Jonas has never used a forward as a guest guard for so many years in his coaching career.
In his view, players should perform their duties and shine in their best positions. A well-behaved forward who runs to play point guard is just messing around.
He almost subconsciously refused directly, but he couldn't help but pause when the words came to his lips.
"It seems...it's not impossible?"
The problem of Huaguo men's basketball guard has troubled Yunus for a long time, and he is really incapable of solving this fatal weakness.
But if Wang Chao plays the point guard as a guest, will the problem be solved?
Jonas has watched the video of Wang Chao's playoff games. Even when facing the top defenders in the league like Prince and Garnett, Wang Chao can still attack with the ball calmly and will not be affected in any way.
Speaking of which, the NBA is not without big guards over 2 meters tall. In fact, the greatest point guard recognized by the league at the moment, magician Irvin Johnson, is 06 meters tall.
But at the same time, Yunas hesitated a little.
It is less than 2 months before the start of the Olympic Games. The Huaguo men's basketball team has been training with the current lineup for several months. A sudden change in the middle may affect the execution of the overall tactics. More importantly, if this attempt fails , then he, the head coach, will be the first responsible person.
"Wang, I will think about your suggestion carefully, but after all, you are not a point guard. Point guards are not just as simple as dribbling across the half court and attacking with the ball..."
After thinking for a moment, Yunus finally did not respond to Wang Chao's opinion.
Wang Chao is not in a hurry. Jonas himself is a very controlling head coach, and he will not easily change his mind just because of a few words from a player.
But the cruel reality will force him to change.
For example, the upcoming Sri Lanka Cup and the next few warm-up matches.
The full name of the Sri Lanka Cup is the Stankovic Intercontinental Cup. It is an international competition hosted by Huaguo. Although the Sri Lanka Cup has no international influence and no gold content, some countries with outstanding strength can still be invited to participate every year. For example, in 06 Invited Germany, France, Greece and other strong teams, and Slovenia in 07.
In the Sri Lanka Cup held in 08, a total of four teams were invited. In addition to the Huaguo men's basketball team, there were also Russia, Serbia and Angola.
The above three teams are not the top teams in the world, but they all have certain strengths. The Huaguo Men's Basketball Team has long regarded this Sri Lankan Cup as one of the warm-up training games. Get off to a good start.
But the result was that the Huaguo men's basketball team ranked second in the Sri Lanka Cup with 2 wins and 1 loss, and the championship was won by Angola, which won all 3 games.
The subsequent warm-up matches between the Huaguo men's basketball team and Australia, Lithuania, Argentina and other teams all ended in losses.
It can be said that the performance of the Huaguo men's basketball team in the warm-up match was extremely sluggish, which once made Huaguo fans worry.
Wang Chao has watched these warm-up matches. No matter who the opponent is, the main reason why the Huaguo men's basketball team loses is without exception, all of which come from the guard position.
Whether it is Liu Wei, Sun Yue or Wang Shipeng, they are helpless when facing the opponent's full-court pressing tactics and make frequent mistakes. Dayao Kong has all the skills but can't wait for his teammates to pass the ball inside.
Wang Chao still remembers that in a certain 08 Olympic men’s basketball documentary, Director Yu said frankly that when the warm-up matches were lost to Angola, Australia, Lithuania and other teams one after another, the defenders of the Huaguo men’s basketball team were almost unable to dribble. .
So it doesn't matter if Yunus can't accept playing point guard now. When these games are held in July, the Huaguo men's basketball team averages more than a dozen turnovers per game. Naturally, he remembered the advice Wang Chao gave him.
As for Wang Chao, he has now found the direction of intensive training.
The first is passing.
As a point guard, lack of passing ability is absolutely unacceptable.
Wang Chao's current passing ability is 68, because during the regular season, in order to better play pick-and-roll tactics with Howard, he also practiced passing for a period of time, so the value is not low, but if he is a point guard Look, 68 is definitely not enough for passing ability.
Before the start of the Olympics, he must at least improve his passing ability to over 80.
The second is speed and power.
Wang Chao was ready to squander what was barely a lucrative balance.
What kind of speed potion and strength potion are all arranged, and strive to increase the speed and agility to above 90 before the start of the game, and at the same time further strengthen the strength and explosive power, so that his breakthrough with the ball is more lethal.
After all, this Huaguo men's basketball team is not the same as the Suns and Magic back then. With someone helping to control the ball, Wang Chao needs faster speed and stronger strength to deal with the pressure that the opponent may exert on him.
"If you want to improve your strength, you should also need to gain a little weight during this period..."
Wang Chao is 2 meters tall and weighs 06 kilograms, which is relatively thin. Of course, he is not particularly thin. After all, Magic Johnson, who is also 98 meters tall, also weighs 2 kilograms, and Kirilenko is about the same at 06 kilograms.
However, if you want to enhance your resistance and impact, gaining weight is obviously the best choice. Wang Chao’s preliminary plan is to increase his weight to 105 kg. This weight is not particularly large for him who is 2 meters tall, so it can be used without affecting the weight. Speed and explosiveness can also enhance strength and confrontation ability.
The reason why Wang Chao chose these two training directions is naturally his own considerations.
Passing aside, strengthening your physical fitness is absolutely right at any time.
Whether it is the NBA or other sports competitions, physical fitness is the most basic and important requirement. All players who have achieved certain achievements in the field of sports, without exception, are top-notch existences in terms of physical fitness.
LeBron James is the most intuitive example.
Someone once said that if aliens come to Earth to catch specimens, James is the best candidate. This is not an exaggeration at all. There are many people in this world who are stronger than James, but they can be like James, with both strength and speed. People with flexibility, flexibility and coordination, then James may really be the only one.
Wang Chao's current shooting ability has reached a very high level, with a full score of 99 in three-pointers and more than 90 in other shooting types.
In this case, if you want to further improve your offensive ability, you can only start with physical fitness.
Just imagine, a player with Curry's long-range three-point shooting ability and James' ability to break through with the ball, how terrifying would that be?
