This Forward is Not Serious

Vol 2 Chapter 255: Smash the pivot foot and puppy stride

And he finally said something to prove that he was not a fool.

  

   This so-called "white hot space", or "zone", is actually the state in which the muscles of the whole body have been strengthened to the greatest extent.

  

   All your basic abilities are stronger than those in the same position, strength, speed, and even subconscious reactions.

  

   Present in front of others means that others will never be able to keep up with your actions.

  

   "But you need very, very hard training, maybe you will have the opportunity to touch it in two or three years, or it will take more time."

  

   Grover was able to talk vigorously, and by the way, he also talked to Lin Ying about his recent hoop perceptions.

  

   He is going to write a book called "Savage Evolution", in which he will rank the players.

  

   Passive, master and ruler.

  

   "You are now in the state of the master, my goal is to eventually train you to be a ruler."

  

   In order to make Lin Ying understand more vividly, he cited one of the most direct examples: shooting the winning ball.

  

   "The passive avoids the decisive ball; the controller chooses to cast the decisive ball when he has great certainty; the ruler completely trusts his intuition and technique, and if he misses this shot, he will make another shot."

  

   After listening to Lin Ying, I felt that Grover's words were quite reasonable. Although he and Kobe singled out closer and closer, there is indeed a level gap between them.

  

   And so, James should be just a passive player in the finals.

  

   I don't know if this defeat in the finals will change his style of play.

  

  If James is promoted to be in charge next season, then the league's structure will become very different.

  

   "So I have a suggestion."

  

   At this moment, Grover continued.

  

   is like the ones he said before are paving the way.

  

   At a critical moment, a knock on the door sounded.

  

   is the takeaway.

  

   Sanya is the seaside, and the most important thing is seafood.

  

   The original taste, it makes people drooling.

  

   The two people are eating and talking.

  

   "I hope you can complete the transformation within two years, from the main power forward to the main small forward, I have observed the development of basketball, the future will be the era of the league dominated by small forwards."

  

   After eating a bite of tender and juicy abalone, Grover finally said what he hadn't finished.

  

   Lin Ying looked at Grover in surprise.

  

   If this guy didn't travel through like himself, his understanding of basketball would be too hard-core!

  

   But some of the analysis that Grover followed made him accept.

  

   His philosophy is that the era of basketball is led by players.

  

   When the basketball technology first came out, because of the rules, tall players had the advantage, so many dominant centers emerged.

  

   Bill Russell, Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and later four major centers, emerged in endlessly.

  

   If it weren't for Jordan's appearance, basketball would have continued to develop like this.

  

   But Jordan's unique talent in history finally changed this situation.

  

   He made people discover that basketball is not just a giant's sport, it can be so beautiful.

  

   So Jordan led the shooting guard era, many juniors began to imitate him to play, Jordan's successors emerge in endlessly.

  

   Then came the appearance of James. He can be as fast as a defender, but he is stronger than a defender. The key is that his passing ability is also very strong.

  

   Almighty striker, this word that was proposed a long time ago, finally appeared a monster that fits it.

  

   Then before the monster reached its peak, another monster Durant appeared.

  

   They will affect the next generation, so for at least the next 20 years, small forwards will gradually dominate the league.

  

   This is what is already happening.

  

   And he also made fun of Lin Ying.

  

   "You don't want to rely on opportunistic tricks for every lore, do you?"

  

   This is about the lore of g6 Lin Ying against the Lakers.

  

   If it weren't for distracting Kobe, that lore might not be possible.

  

   In terms of play style, small forwards and power forwards are very different. They are more creative and flexible.

  

   Lin Ying smiled after listening, saying that he had to think about it first.

  

   Although Grover's proposal only allowed him to play as a small forward instead of completely transforming into a small forward, many things he has now will change.

  

   Although that does not mean loss, how he uses it, the frequency of use will change.

  

   In other words, it will require adjustment and adaptation.

  

   "You don't have to worry about the transition, I will make you go smoothly, and you will feel that you are making progress."

  

   I have to admit that Grover is the kind of person who is very good at selling.

  

  Think about it, but he sold himself to Jordan at the age of 23!

  

   Lin Ying nodded.

  

   Now he is not in a hurry, he will have to follow Kobe's advanced footsteps training later, and then he will have to play in the World Championships.

  

   If you really make a decision, it will be after that.

  

  ……

  

   It’s already summer in Sanya at the end of June, but the seaside wind doesn’t seem so sultry.

  

   They didn't have much time to adjust the jet lag, and the next day they started training with their dim sleepy eyes open.

  

   While Kobe was sharing his footsteps, Durant was also listening intently.

  

   Hey, this guy finally got Kobe to agree by relying on stalking!

  

   There are two footsteps shared by Kobe, one is offense and the other is defense.

  

   Basketball offensive footsteps are so dazzling, what Kobe shared is the most proud of the footsteps he has mastered.

  

   You can call it a "thumping pivot foot".

  

   After losing in 2008, the first thing Kobe did was to fly to Houston to find Olajuwon, to learn the dreamy footsteps of the big dream.

  

   Then he quickly grasped the essence of this footstep, the use of axis feet.

  

   After that, Kobe’s strong points came out. He did not stay in pure dreamy footsteps, because it was more of a static offense.

  

   He combined his dreamy footsteps into the breakthrough, and finally found his own footsteps, that is, hitting the pivot foot.

  

As the name suggests, it refers to the use of an instant heavy hit to dribble to stop the ball when breaking through. Because the defender moves with you, this heavy hit will make the defender inertially advance, and you will gain offensive space. This is the same as an emergency stop. reason.

  

  The special thing about it is that it is either a falling step or a jumping step. It requires both feet to land at the same time before the ball, because you will have two pivot feet at the same time.

  

If the defender is not freed from your heavy dribble, then you can then turn around and shoot based on the defender’s defensive center of gravity, or take the foot away from the defender as the axis, or take the foot closer to the defender as the axis. Heart and feet turned and attacked the basket.

  

   Lin Yingting has a great realization.

  

   Kobe has seen these footsteps in heads-ups and matches.

  

   But this thing is just like sword moves in martial arts novels.

  

   Because if you don’t understand its principle, you will only imitate it when you use it, and it will not achieve its true purpose.

  

   This is also the reason why Olajuwon opened a dream dance training class, and there was an endless stream of people who signed up.

  

   Then, Kobe shared his defensive steps.

  

   is the same as the previous offensive footsteps, all without a name, but you can call it "puppy footsteps".

  

   Kobe said that his defensive pace is under Gary Payton.

  

  This step is mainly for pick-and-rolls.

  

   In the early part of his career, Kobe had a headache because he couldn't get around the pick-and-roll, and his opponents would use this to hit him with the pick-and-roll.

  

Then he found Payton.

  

   It was in 2000, when Payton was still on the Sonics. It was an All-Star game.

  

   Kobe asked very directly, and Payton answered very directly.

  

   "Squash your body."

  

   A word that sounds absurd, but it explains the origin of this defensive footstep.

  

   To get through the pick-and-roll/cover, you must slide or break like a puppy, never run in big strides.

  

   In order to do this, you must squash your body as much as possible and move your feet as fast as possible.

  

   Then according to Payton, the feeling presented is like a piece of paper passing through a door.

  

   When talking about the offensive pace, Durant was watching, but when it comes to the defensive pace, he needs to come over as a tool man.

  

   Kobe: Why do you think I agree with him?

  

   After practicing for a while, Lin Ying found that this thing really worked, a bit like the footsteps in a boxing match, and she felt that people were moving all the time.

  

  In that state, the reaction to the pick-and-roll can be faster.

  

   and then achieve a similar effect of squeezing the body, it is indeed not so afraid of pick-and-rolls.

  

   But it is not an overnight thing to practice these two things, and even whether they can be practiced depends on their own grasp.

  

   As for why Kobe is willing to share these with Lin Ying and Durant, it is also very understandable.

  

   Why was Payton willing to share his defensive steps with Kobe?

  

  The principle is the same. At the peak of an industry, consideration is not only about competition, but also about inheritance.

  

   If the technology gradually disappears in the league because no one has inherited and carried it forward, that would be more terrifying than having one more competitor.

  

  ……

  

   Time is fast, here Lin Ying is in summer training, and the door to the free agency market has officially opened.

  

   On the first day the door was opened, two maximum salary signings broke out.

  

   The first deal was for the Grizzlies with a 5-year, 80 million contract extension.

  

   The Grizzlies also offered a five-year 50 million contract last season, but Gay rejected it.

  

   The second deal is related to the Suns. The Suns renewed Stoudemire with a 5-year 110 million full guarantee contract.

  

   This result is also expected. After the Suns won the championship and Stoudemire expressed their willingness to adjust the game next season, the Suns had no reason not to renew their contract.

  

   At this time, Phoenix.

  

   Cole is talking to Tony Allen’s agent about renewing his contract.

  

   gave him a very short time, but he has basically determined who should stay, and even considered the operational issues next summer.

  

  The main team to win the championship, the Big Three, Nash, Stoudemire, and Lin Ying are must stay.

  

   Nash renewed a two-year 20 million contract with the team in advance last year, which will expire in the summer of 2012, with an annual salary of 10 million in the 2011-2012 season.

  

   Stoudemire renewed his contract with 110 million for 5 years, an increase of 12.5% ​​year by year, and it was close to 20 million a year in the 2011-2012 season.

  

   If Lin Ying renews his maximum salary in the summer of 2011, it will be a five-year contract of 85 million, with a starting salary of about 14.5 million US dollars.

  

   There is a key point here. At that time, because Lin Ying only played in the sun two years ago, there was no bird clause, only the early bird clause.

  

  Popularize the importance of this clause. Only if a team has played for at least three years, the parent team has the Bird clause of the player, and after possessing the Bird clause, the team can overcap the contract renewal.

  

  In other words, if Lin Ying has played in the Suns for more than three years, the Suns will be 100% sure to keep him.

  

   But not now, so they must reserve enough salary space for Lin Ying.

  

  Some people say that Lin Ying does not necessarily have to renew his contract with a maximum salary, or can Lin Ying reduce his salary to renew his contract? Or maybe renew the contract in advance?

  

   Salary reduction is a bit unrealistic. It is impossible for a young supernova to get a maximum salary without a maximum salary.

  

   Don't take one or two million yuan as improper money on one side, and on the other hand, it is also a kind of identity recognition.

  

As for the early contract renewal, first, there was a certain chance for the Suns to win the championship last season. Lin Ying performed well, but the data is not necessarily a maximum salary. The Suns have always been cautious in this regard. Refer to the future Suns' treatment of Ayton. Renewal attitude.

  

   The second is more important. As a professional agent, Duffy is also maximizing the interests of Lin Ying.

  

   The salary cap of nba is increasing every year, and the salary of the top salary is also increasing.

  

   At this point, he handles Durant's contract in the same way. Durant is an absolute maximum salary, but he did not negotiate an early contract extension with the Thunder.

  

   This is the background, but Cole, as the general manager, has to consider the situation of Lin Ying's renewal of the maximum salary next year.

  

  According to the current announcement of the league, the salary cap for the 2011-2012 season is about 58.04 million US dollars.

  

   Then, the salary space left after removing the Big Three is 13.54 million.

  

   is this 1354, to give points to the remaining role players.

  

   So Cole has to choose, which is why he will negotiate with Allen after Stoudemire.

  

   Among other role players, Allen must stay, and it is difficult to have a replacement player.

  

   A guy who can defend Kobe, if he is gone, they will be in big trouble when they meet the Lakers.

  

   And now the Thunder are also on the rise, Allen also showed his excellent ability to limit Durant, so he must stay.

  

   Another player who can't move is Barbosa.

  

  Barbosa and the team still have a contract is one aspect, and more importantly, he is a totem-like player of the team.

  

   From the reactions of fans before Lin Ying, Nash, and Barbosa went to community care activities, I know that Barbosa is very influential in Phoenix.

  

   Just like the Heat won’t trade Haslem and the Thunder won’t trade Nick Collison.

  

   Barbossa and the Suns are the contract renewed in 2006, and the five-year 32 million contract at the beginning of the 2007~2008 season.

  

   This is an average salary contract, and it is also $6.4 million for the 2011-2012 season.

  

   So only part of the 7.14 million space left for Allen.

  

   And there has to be room for rookies.

  

   Holiday, Lopez, and Cartney Lee, who have just been traded, all have contracts of around 2 million yuan.

  

  According to the current situation, there is a high probability that only one of these three will be retained at that time, and the others will be replaced with a basic salary or a new rookie.

  

  The only contract left to Allen is about 5 million~www.wuxiahere.com~ Considering Lee, who has the largest contract by then, the rookie's fourth year of 2.25 million.

  

   Then reduce it a bit, and it is a contract with a salary of $4.99 million in the 2011-2012 season.

  

  True, accurate to single digits.

  

   The general manager of nba is not a job that ordinary people can do.

  

   This is also the reason why the Warriors could only watch Arenas being traded away before the Arenas clause in history.

  

   That is not to say that you can free up enough salary space by trading someone.

  

   Sometimes every bit of space will get stuck.

  

   Of course, Cole is still precautionary. The most extreme situation is that none of the three rookies stays.

  

   That 2 million is the flexible space at that time.

  

   "I signed it."

  

   Allen nodded finally.

  

   The starting salary is 4.65 million, an annual increase of 5%, and the contract is renewed for 4 years and 20 million.

  

  Calculated, the average salary is 5 million!

  

   For a perimeter player who has almost no offensive ability, this can be regarded as a super lucrative contract extension.

  

   "Let's do it again."

  

   Cole smiled and stretched out his hand after hearing Allen's words.
