The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 165, Coach, I actually want to play center forward.

The draw of O'Neill made Xue Ding's mood fluctuate.

Originally, Xue Ding was hoping to have Kobe Irving or something to strengthen his technical shortcomings, but he didn't expect to have O'Neal.

Many of O'Neill's skills are not as good as his own....
O'Neal will free throw?O'Neal will dribble breakthrough?O'Neal will jump shot?

Xue Ding said that there are many problems.

Take another look at your attributes.

Long-range shooting ability +5.

This is what Curry brought.

Xue Ding's three-point shooting percentage should increase by at least 1% to 2%.

With all kinds of thoughts, Xue Ding quickly fell asleep, and his sleep quality has always been very good.

..........
6:[-] am.

Xue Ding got up early.

Seeing that Yaya was still sleeping, Xue Ding crawled over and whispered in her ear: "Yaya, I'm up for training, sleep well."

After finishing speaking, Xue Ding touched Yaya's little buttocks.

When Yaya heard Xue Ding's words, she said "hmm" in a daze.

Xue Ding's home has its own indoor basketball court.

Curry's experience yesterday and O'Neal's new model in the future gave him endless motivation.

Xue Ding desperately wanted to stand on the basketball court again to experience his three-pointers.

Curry's three-point push is a very useful move. If he can combine his rhythm shooting with his own dribbling rhythm, the possibility of interference will be greatly reduced.

Curry can make fake moves based on the opponent's reaction, deciding whether to make a real shot or a fake shot.

This is very good for the reading of the opponent's defense and the judgment of the on-the-spot reaction.

Curry plays with more brains, while Xue Ding plays with his body more.

The two have their own characteristics.

There is no absolute good or bad.

It's not enough to have a brain without a body, and the style of play is not as good as a talented rampage.

After simply brushing his teeth, Xue Ding changed into his equipment in his laundry room and went to the training ground.

Both Yaya and Xue Ding have a lot of clothes and shoes, and the piles bought by the sponsors and themselves are almost as high as a mountain. They both have their own room and various rules to store these.

During Portland's rest days, Xue Ding often spent at his own training ground.

Xue Ding tried to consolidate the feeling that Curry left behind at that time.

After more than 100 three-point shots in a row, Xue Ding obviously felt more confident in shooting three-pointers, and his shooting percentage improved a lot.

The experience of the legendary mode made Xue Ding once again determined to experience more various game modes to improve himself.

Set up the ball picker and stand in position.

……

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

"frame!"

……

When Xue Ding kept practicing three-pointers.

Xue Ding didn't know when Yaya stood on the sidelines.

To be honest, there was a beautiful woman who came to see him training, and Xue Ding's training was more like taking hormones. Regardless of whether Yaya was his wife in the first place, Xue Ding really wanted to show his strength in front of her.

Yaya also wore cool clothes in the morning, with a towel hanging around her neck. Xue Ding was training, and she was also doing stretching warm-up dance moves to exercise her body.

Watch while exercising.

After a while, she finished exercising and quietly watched Xue Ding train.

Xue Ding's home has heating, even in winter, the stadium will not feel cold.

"Swish"

"Swish"

"Swish"

...

Then ten consecutive three-pointers.

When Yaya shouted "Husband, come on", I lost the shot...

Xue Ding immediately stopped training and walked towards Yaya.

"morning."

Xue Ding took the initiative to say hello.

"Morning, are you done with training?" Yaya looked at Xue Ding's figure in a daze. The training suit Xue Ding was wearing today was sweating, and it was a little tight on his body.

Xue Ding's muscle lines are abnormally obvious, even though he has watched it many times in the past few days, Yaya is still a little shy.

"Well, it's almost there, can we have breakfast?"

Xue Ding put his hands on Yaya's shoulders indifferently.

Both of them could hear their breathing.

Yaya didn't mind the sweat on Xue Ding's body, she looked up at Xue Ding sideways and said, "Well, it's fine, let's go have breakfast."

"I'll take a shower first."

"Ah."

This kind of warm daily life between the two also made Xue Ding feel some happiness outside of basketball.

………….
After breakfast, Xue Ding stopped training.

During the Christmas holiday, you should let your spirit relax.

Sometimes resting is a way to keep yourself interested in basketball and eager to win.

In the morning, the two went to the shopping mall to do a sweep and buy various daily necessities.

In the afternoon, the two of them went for a tour, and Xue Ding took Yaya to get familiar with the city.

In the evening, Xue Ding took Yaya to a date, which was the theater that Xue Ding saw last time.

There are also many advantages of Xue Ding wearing a mask for a long time, that is, when he appears in the living area of ​​Portland without a mask, the real fans will not recognize him.

Yaya is not well-known here.

The two of them lived a whole day no different from ordinary people.

................
The Portland Trail Blazers had a record of 24 wins and 8 losses before Christmas.

This record ranks second in the West, second only to the top Lakers' 25 wins and 7 losses.

The trouble for the Blazers is that their Pulzbila and Oden are both on the injured list, plus the newcomer Chandler, now the Blazers have almost no centers to use.

As a last resort, Aldridge was transferred to the center position for pre-match training.

Aldridge has a lot of reluctance, but the team can't help it.

Xue Ding also tried to suggest to McMillan that he could play a deeper position, but McMillan thought Xue Ding's deeper position was to increase breakthroughs.

So he drew a lot of breakthrough tactics for Xue Ding.

Looking at the tactical board, Xue Ding tried another way to persuade McMillan to let him go to the low post more. He couldn't just say that he played center forward, right?
"Coach, in fact, my low position is very good, and I can increase the proportion of low position tactics."

"Which position?" McMillan looked at Xue Ding suspiciously, he didn't understand.

"This."

Xue Ding picked up the tactical pen and drew continuous circles on the three-second zone on the tactical board.

"Actually, you can pass me the ball in the three-second zone."

Xue Ding would not directly say that he wants to be a center forward.

"Xue, are you sure you want to catch the ball in the three-second zone? Instead of attacking the three-second zone with the ball?"

"Ah."

"No, Xue, you'd better throw a three-pointer, I like your three-pointer, you can throw it whatever you want now, haha"

McMillan declined Xue Ding's absurd suggestion. You know, the next opponent is the Magic.

Howard, the number one center in the league, is there. No matter how aggressive Xue Ding is, he will be courting death.

Also play Howard in the low post.

Xue Ding felt that his reasons were somewhat untenable.

"OK!"

It seems that there is no way to play center for the time being, so Xue Ding had no choice but to give up this idea first.

After the Christmas break, the Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Magic at home.

After the Blazers persisted for three and a half quarters in this game, they decisively handed in their guns and surrendered.

Xue Ding played 33 minutes in this game and scored 18 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 6 turnovers. There is nothing wrong with the statistics, but in fact Xue Ding played so-so in this game. He made 6 of 2 three-pointers and hit The inside line was seriously interfered by Howard.
