Chapter 172 Training Camp

The next morning, Ying Xiong tried to open the buff, but it did, which made him very happy.In this way, the CD time of the buff is not as long as ten days and a half months, it should be less than a day.But even so, when playing an official game, a game only takes more than 2 hours.In theory, a game can only be opened once at most.

"Can I extend the buff time by practicing Wu Qinxi? Is it possible to shorten the CD time of the buff?" Ying Xiong asked himself, but he couldn't find the answer right now.Perhaps, time will tell the answer to this question.

Ying Xiong didn't tell anyone about his physical enhancement and hidden attributes.He doesn't want others to know that he has such ability, this is a secret between him and Sun Wu.

Ying Xiong was immersed in the training, and he didn't dare to slack off in Wu Qin Xi's practice.After this period of practice, he felt that the duration of the buff seemed to be a few seconds longer than at the beginning.This made him very gratified and more motivated to practice.

Training is naturally effective for fat loss.Of course, without targeted training for half a year, and without participating in an official competition, it is not easy to restore the competitive state immediately.Fortunately, there are training camps and preseason games before the regular season.

The NBA is a highly commercialized league, and the setting of the competition system is also very reasonable.Although some players have complained that the regular season is too dense, for the league, the more games there are, the more profitable the league will be.

Li Jianwu was bored during the summer vacation at home, so he often sent QQ messages to Ying Xiong.Due to the time difference, whenever Ying Xiong took a break between training during the day, he sent a message to Li Jianwu, who was often asleep.Fortunately, Li Jianwu had nothing to do during the day, so it was very convenient for Ying Xiong to contact him at night.

Li Jianwu always told Ying Xiong that he was bored and had nothing to do, and that he didn't know what to do after graduation!Ying Xiong suggested that he go to work to earn some pocket money, but he was too lazy to move.He said that if he couldn't find a good job after graduation, he would go to the United States to find Yingxiong and hug Yingxiong's thigh.Ying Xiong told him with a smile that if he could sign a big contract, he could be his Chinese agent.For this, Li Jianwu is convinced, and has repeatedly emphasized that Ying Xiong will definitely be able to sign a big contract.

Time passed quickly, and August passed in a blink of an eye. Beginning in September, all major colleges and universities across the country will begin to reopen one after another.Sun Jing and Li Jianwu also went to their respective schools.Ying Xiong suddenly felt that if he went to university in China, he would have to go to school, and he would be a sophomore.

Ying Xiong still has regrets about not being able to go to university.It's just that he is also very clear that when he gains something, he loses something, which is perfectly normal.

In late September, the signings of NBA teams this summer were gradually coming to an end, and training camps began one after another.As a rookie of the Milwaukee Bucks, Ying Xiong participated in the training camp with great enthusiasm.He picked No. 9 as his jersey number.In fact, when he was in the CBA Guangsha team, he also wore No. 25.

In the NBA, No. 3, No. 13, No. 21, No. 34, etc. are very popular jersey numbers. If a rookie wants to wear it, he may not be able to wear it.And Yingxiong's number 25 is not a very popular jersey number, and no one in the team competes with him.

The number of players in the training camp is far more than the number of players on the roster.By convention, each team will find some undrafted or free agents to participate in the training camp, and then decide whether to sign a contract with them after the preseason.So training camp and preseason are opportunities for these players who want to get a contract.Naturally, these players will work extra hard, trying to impress the front office with their performance on the court.

For Ying Xiong, there is no such thing as being eventually dismissed, because he has already signed a rookie contract, and it is a first-round pick contract with a two-year guarantee.However, as a rookie, it is indeed very important to show your strength in the training camp and let the management and coaching staff value yourself.

During the few days in the training camp, what Yingxiong felt the most was the amazing strength of NBA players.Players who can enter the NBA, whether they are first-round picks or second-round picks, even if they are undrafted, are the absolute main force of each NCAA school team.Some overseas players are supernovas in their respective leagues.This is the gathering place of basketball talents all over the world. Someone once said, "The NBA may lack this or that, but it is absolutely impossible to lack talent!"

Ying Xiong used to watch NBA games on TV.Even if he is a professional basketball player, he can't feel the confrontation, technology, strength, etc. of NBA players.In the CBA, each team has foreign aid.But not to mention the gap between the overall strength and NBA players of foreign players who come to CBA, the difference is much worse in terms of quantity alone. The CBA team has always had only two foreign players, but the NBA team is full of players whose strength exceeds or equals that of the CBA foreign players.It can be seen that there is a huge gap between the two alliances.

In the training camp, Ying Xiong's performance was far below expectations.His performance is not outstanding, even very mediocre. The 3-point line in the NBA is farther than that in the CBA. He is not used to the 3-point line here, and often shoots long two-pointers or step-on-the-line 3-pointers in confrontation games.Even when shooting 3-pointers, the shooting percentage is not high, and he often hits the front of the basket.

The NBA has 3 seconds of defense. Although Yingxiong is not an insider, he has been blown for 3 seconds of defense many times.In addition, due to his lack of physical strength and the strong confrontation of NBA players, his proud breakthrough layup and emergency stop jump shot are also difficult to effectively perform, and his shooting percentage is relatively bleak.

The team's new head coach Scott Skiles and several other assistant coaches are not very satisfied with Yingxiong's performance.They think that the team shouldn't use the 8th pick in the first round to select a young player from China, not to mention that the team had already selected the insider Yi Jianlian, also from China, with the 6th pick last summer.

In the eyes of these American coaches, they don't think much of Asian players from the bottom of their hearts.In their view, Asian players with poor physical condition and poor confrontation are not suitable for the sport of basketball.If it weren't for Yao Ming's outstanding height, it would be almost impossible to gain a foothold in the NBA relying on ordinary physical conditions.For Ying Xiong, a player with the height of a wing, they don't think he has the potential to grow into an All-Star player.

Ying Xiong was also dissatisfied with his performance.He expected that he would not adapt to the 3-point line here, so he has been practicing 3-pointers some time ago.He also expected that the level of confrontation here is not comparable to that of CBA, so he has been trying to improve his confrontation.But when he really went to the field to play against the game, those deep-rooted concepts and habits still made him full of loopholes, and he was at a loss on the field.
