After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 23 Howard's "Olive Branch"

Howard's offensive methods are actually quite simple, especially when he is attacking one-on-one, there are not many things he can use.

Or it's hard arching to the basket on the inside and then directly forcing it to dunk against the person, just like the big shark back then, relying on a pair of big elbows, it can be said that it was a bright spot with Peter Pan in the west.

One said that we will elbow, and the other said that JUST elbowed. I don't know who will elbow the other if the two teams are in the same team.

It's a pity that the elbow-elbow elbow-elbow Malone has retired, otherwise they can compare him with one elbow and the other with two elbows, who is his elbow.

Otherwise, it is to eat cakes, cooperate with the outside line, and dunk dunks almost every day. Last season, Nelson and Turkoglu cooperated with him more and more tacitly, often sending him assists.

His lower body strength is weak, which is actually only compared to Dayao's. Now most of the insiders in the league are average, and he is really worthy.

You are like O'Fat, an old shark who is slow and can't keep up with him.

But now there is an extra Li Chengming, the nimble and dead fat man is not called for nothing, he turns slowly and can't move laterally. Compared with the outside line, Howard is still more flexible and faster than him, but Howard wants to show off in front of him. Stepping and playing tricks, isn't that the same as comparing strength, it's purely self-inflicted.

It's hard to say about footsteps. We all know that Olajuwon's big dream has great footsteps, but whoever can learn five or six percent is not bad.

And Howard obviously doesn't have the talent in this area, and he doesn't have anything to do with technical things. After shooting, including three-pointers, he is late and forced to have no choice. He may really be able to practice, but other skills will come to an end.

In this case, Li Chengming is not afraid of him at all.

To put it bluntly, Howard is the rough guy who was promoted in the era of withering centers. It is no wonder that so many famous insiders are picky about him, thinking that he is living in a good era.

Blue-collar play mixed into a superstar, who would have believed it before?
The so-called one thing lowers one thing, the gap between Li Chengming and Howard is of course ten thousand miles, but it is still possible to limit the opponent in the heads-up.

He even wanted to come back from singles, but the assistant coach saw the opportunity quickly and ran out to stop him.

He was really worried that Li Chengming would beat Howard to the ground, because if Howard defended Li Chengming, it would be a bit like asking Mutombo to defend O'Neal.

Howard's strength seems to be much worse than that of Li Chengming, and he can't compare in the bottom game. Li Chengming still has one-handed shooting, and his pace is also good. He doesn't even have an absolute advantage in height.

The reported height is 208. It is estimated that 205 or 206 would be good.

And Howard, who is not familiar with Li Chengming's style, really suffers from the first few shots. If he can't score or defend, he will be unable to hang his face.

When defended in singles, most people say that he is good at singles, but everyone knows that Howard's best defense is defense; but if the defense is broken, then he has to break the defense.

It was as if every time he fought with Dayao, he wanted to get back on the field, but he was beaten so urgently.

This is not a competition, it's a good entertainment game, if there is a grievance later, it will be bad.

Howard still looked very depressed, because he didn't expect that he would be defeated by an unknown junior, but he was an optimist after all, and he was persuaded by the assistant, and he soon became acquainted with Li Chengming.

Naturally, Li Chengming didn't mind, it was enough to let the other party suffer, and now he wanted to find someone else to try his hand.

But after one-on-one with Howard, other people in the training camp really regarded Li Chengming as that kind of "hidden master". They were either undrafted, high school students or college students. There is no way to fight Li Chengming in physical confrontation.

Moreover, Li Chengming is not the same as Howard. If he wins against Howard, he will have a reputation bonus, and it will not matter if he wins or not. But for an unknown person like Li Chengming, it is not worthwhile to win or lose.

If you can't afford it, you just hide, but it makes Li Chengming depressed, so he can only practice three-pointers alone there.

His three-pointer is learned from Ray Allen's technical moves, because he thinks he is the most standard-in fact, because he thinks he is the most accurate and the best-looking.

Now that his shooting speed has been increased by the accelerator, Li Chengming's shooting posture has not changed, but it feels a bit awkward to outsiders.

Howard has paid more attention to him since he was frustrated with him. After watching him for a while, he asked curiously: "Is there something wrong with your shooting posture?"

Li Chengming stopped and said strangely: "This is my normal shooting posture, what's the problem?"

You're trying to find fault, aren't you?

He himself didn't think it was abnormal, because it was the rhythm he was used to, and he thought that this black guy was messed up by himself and wanted to save face.

"Um..." Howard thought for a while, but he really didn't know how to explain why. After all, he didn't shoot three-pointers, and he didn't know if everyone shot three-pointers like this.

It's just that after watching other people shoot three-pointers too much, I think Li Chengming's behavior is a bit weird.

This is training and not a three-point contest. Why are you shooting so "hurriedly"?
"Okay," Howard scratched his head, he didn't know what to say, and then in Li Chengming's inexplicable eyes, he suddenly thought of something, and asked with his eyes brightened: "Hey, boy, after a while, are you interested in talking to me?" Go to the national team training camp together?"

Li Chengming was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Is this... suitable?"

The national team training camp that Howard is going to participate in, isn't that the training camp for the US team?
To be honest, Li Chengming was a little bit moved, because there were all NBA stars there, which was much better than this training camp.

It's just that he thought to himself that I haven't even participated in the national team of my home country, so why do I participate in the US team training camp?

If this gets out, the old father will be the first to kill himself if the media doesn't speak up.

Howard laughed and said, "Whether it's suitable or not, do you think I'm going to ask you to join? It's just to be a training partner, and I will take you there to learn a lot."

Li Chengming is quite smart, and he immediately realized that Howard was uneasy and kind, of course not to him, but to his teammates from the national team.

It is estimated that this clown was defeated by him, and he didn't turn his head for a while, and he didn't know how to get back the place. In this case, the best thing is to drag more people into the water together.

If everyone loses face, he will not stand out so much.

He might have thought that everyone else in the American men's basketball team would be as stupid as him, so if they were stupid, they would come to Li Chengming's side to find fault.

But if other stars come to beat him, it's hard to say whether it's a crime. For example, if Kobe is playing singles, Li Chengming will definitely be unable to guard against him. He can only keep up with the interference as much as possible, and then rely on him to fight the iron.

But it's not just about being beaten in singles, he can also beat them. Li Chengming felt that they might not be able to defend him.

His confidence in himself comes from his own body. Even in the NBA, he can bully many people. As long as he is not in a game and is not troubled by physical exertion, isn't he a single-handed weapon?
Even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. Li Chengming has a humble apprentice mentality at this time. It would be better if he was abused, which shows that he has a lot of room for growth and can learn more experience. Anyway, he is a rookie, and he is not ashamed to be defeated by those famous stars .

Besides, let's not talk about training with them, just getting acquainted with them can be regarded as expanding your network. There are people everywhere here, and it will be convenient if you want to change teams in the future.

Hey, why did I think of changing teams?

But you can't decide this kind of thing by yourself, you have to discuss it with your father.

When he heard that he was going to ask his father, Howard laughed loudly and said, "How old are you, can't make up your own mind?"

Then he couldn't help muttering: "Why did I lose to such a fool?"
