Chapter 456 Strengthening the Training of the Left Hand

"Are you here to earn No.2?"

Larry Bird once said this to all players participating in the three-point contest before the start of the 1988 All-Star Three-Point Contest.

So far, this is still the classic "trash talk" that cannot be surpassed.

In fact, Larry Bird really chopped melons and chopped vegetables to win the three-point contest that year, turning his trash talk into reality.

Some words, if you say it too big, you will slap yourself in the face, but once it is realized, it is a classic.

The reason why Larry Bird dared to say such words stemmed from his great strength. He was in full swing back then, and he had already won two consecutive championships in the three-point contest in the past two years, so he confidently said the words of "fighting for No. 2", and no one refuted them.

This year's Carlisle Curry is quite a shadow of Bird back then. Although he didn't get the honor of three-pointers like Bird did, but when it comes to three-pointers this season, the first name that comes to mind must be Carlisle Curry, a rookie in the first grade.

Of course, Carlisle Curry is not the only one who is interested in this three-point championship. The veteran shooter Harris of the Lakers and the Timberwolves' outside heavy artillery Kalure are all favorable competitors in this three-point contest.

"The players who can be selected to participate in the All-Star individual competition are not weak!"

In order to bring the best All-Star look to the audience, the players in the league are carefully selected. Carlisle Curry, a player who has just entered the league and has reached the peak of the three-pointer, his name alone is enough for him to be selected for this list.

Harris, the player with the highest three-point shooting percentage of the Lakers, is not James, Oscar, or Felix, but the "little-known" Harris. As the most hidden player in the Lakers, his three-pointers are terribly stable.

Kaluer is not simple. A center with a height of more than 2.10 meters has a soft hand on the outside. He is one of the most accurate inside three-pointers in the league, and has even surpassed many outside strikers. Kaluer can hit more than 2 three-pointers per game.

Mu Chenfeng is the one with the lowest number of three-point shots and the lowest average number of field goals per game among all eight players, but his shooting percentage is frighteningly high. He is the only player in the league so far who has a three-point shooting percentage of 8%. However, many people question that Mu Chenfeng's high shooting percentage is due to his small number of shots.

Mu Chenfeng averaged only 3 shots per game, and averaged about 1.5 hits per game. He is not a player who completely relies on three-pointers, and it is reasonable to take fewer shots. Therefore, his selection has caused quite a commotion in the league.

The three-point contest is about to start, Mu Chenfeng hastened to train, but his right hand injury has not recovered, so he can only practice with his left hand.

In 1 minute, Mu Chenfeng could only complete 18 shots with his left hand, not even 25 shots.

"The shooting rhythm is too slow." The trainer directly pointed out the shortcomings of Mu Chenfeng's shooting.

Although Mu Chenfeng's left-handed shooting rate is also good, but after all, he is not a regular hand. It takes more time to adjust when shooting than his right hand, so the interval between each shot is a bit long, so that there is no way to complete 25 shots.

However, Mu Chenfeng's shooting rate is still good. He took 18 shots and hit 12 shots. For a right-handed player, being able to shoot with his left hand is already very good. This is a three-pointer.

Mu Chenfeng was very dissatisfied with his performance, whether it was the speed of his shots or the hit rate.

"Continue." Mu Chenfeng didn't make any response, but just continued coldly.

The competition is imminent, there is no better way, the shortcomings are there, and the only way to overcome them is to strengthen training.

1 minute, 21 shots and 16 hits!
"Come again!" Mu Chenfeng shook his head and continued training without rest.

1 minute, 23 shots and 18 hits!
"Again!" The number of shots and hits has increased significantly, but it still hasn't reached Mu Chenfeng's expected goal.

1 minute, 25 shots and 20 hits!
After 4 hours of intensive training, Mu Chenfeng's left-handed shots finally reached 25 times, hit 20 goals, and the hit rate is also very high. Such a result is likely to win this year's three-point contest championship.

After reaching the standard, Mu Chenfeng stared at his left hand for a long time.

"Great, you did it." Su Mengyao handed over the towel. She had been training with Mu Chenfeng all the time. Mu Chenfeng made obvious progress every time he trained. Su Mengyao saw all this, but felt very distressed.

"It's only done once." Mu Chenfeng wiped off the sweat on his body with a towel.

"you"

"Try again." Mu Chenfeng turned his head and looked at Su Mengyao tenderly, "You stay with me."

Mu Chenfeng's desire for victory far surpasses everyone else's. He couldn't use his right hand, so he forcibly trained his left hand to be as good as his right hand.

"Okay!" Su Mengyao agreed, "but you have to promise me that if you finish it, this is the end of today." The continuous training has exceeded 4 hours, and this kind of training intensity is difficult for ordinary people to bear, not to mention that Mu Chenfeng is still injured, Su Mengyao hopes that he can get more rest.

"Yes." Mu Chenfeng readily agreed, and the two went straight into the arena. Su Mengyao replaced the trainer to time and count for Mu Chenfeng.

Mu Chenfeng put his left hand on the basketball, dunked his fingers hard, and grabbed the basketball with one hand. This is the movement he has been using in training today. Now his fingers are sore, but he still clenched his teeth and persisted.

His right hand can't shoot, but he can still do some simple assistance. Mu Chenfeng gently dialed the ball with his left hand. The speed of the basketball rotation was exactly the same as when he shot with his right hand. The first ball fell into the basket accurately.

Immediately afterwards, the subsequent shots were like drops of water falling from a rainy day, and Mu Chenfeng shot them into the basket one by one.

The first point, 5 balls, all hit.

The second point, 5 balls, hit all again.

Third point
Fourth point
At the last point, Mu Chenfeng has completely found the rhythm of shooting, and he also hit all the last 5 shots.

So far, Mu Chenfeng has completed all 25 shots, and there are 1 seconds left in 4 minute.

The time consumption control is perfect, and the hit rate is even more terrifying.

25 shots from beyond the three-point line, all 25 goals were hit! ! !
