One Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty-Four. Da Meng's Low-Level Teaching

In the low position, the focus is not on the steps, but on the waist! It’s about waist control! You can't move your center of gravity casually. You have to seize these 5 seconds and make full use of the 5 seconds with your back, and you can't be in a hurry. You have to grasp the referee's sensitivity to the call. Testing is very important. Our fake The action must deceive not only the opponent, but also the referee. As long as there is no call, you will not have 5 seconds...

Some referees are very critical of the 5 seconds when your back is turned to the basket. You can also try to fake a break, that is, dribble and turn around to face the blue frame and then turn your back to the frame. Some referees will regard this as a restart. Playing time... Yes, this is indeed an area where the rules are vague and difficult to define. It mainly depends on how the referee calls it. What you need to do is to allow yourself to complete the attack in the first 5 seconds. You can have something like this A way out, but you can't rely on this..."

Olajuwon patiently and meticulously explained to Sun Ce the techniques and basic skills of low post play.

If he was teaching others, such as Bosh, James, and Howard, who also paid $50,000 a week, Olajuwon would only teach techniques. Whether he can learn it depends purely on himself.

Back fighting has never just been about technique. Just the low turns, steps and other movements cost 50,000 US dollars. I practiced hard for a week, just looking at the postures, but I really learned almost everything. The more you practice, the movements will become better. .

Not to mention official games, even training games, you will find it difficult to use it when there is confrontation and defense.

The basic skills and techniques of low post play are the foundation. The key is the method of use, control of experience, and grasp of timing. These are the most important and the most difficult to teach. They are also the most difficult to learn and require talent.

Others come to Olajuwon to learn things. In addition to the fact that he is not so willing to slowly teach things other than techniques and basic skills, there is also the fact that even NBA players will feel pain if they spend $50,000 a week to learn techniques from him. I have been studying for two weeks, and many players have no basic skills at all. They come here to learn the basics. They think that after they have learned how to practice, they can go back and practice on their own.

In such a situation, Olajuwon couldn't teach even if he wanted to, and he gradually stopped teaching at all.

This is also the reason why only Yao Ming and Kobe have been able to learn Olajuwon's footsteps over the years, because they already had solid low-post skills before they started learning.

However, Sun Ce's situation was different from that of Yao Ming and Kobe. After Sun Ce invited Olajuwon to Los Angeles, Olajuwon first examined Sun Ce's basic skills and technical level, then spent three days making a training plan, and also I specially made PPT and wrote the speech notes, and I was more attentive than ever before!

The reason is very simple.

"Hakeem, you are the strongest center in history in my mind. There are only three people in NBA history who won MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season. Both of us were championships that year. Only Jordan was not. When I was a kid, I was the best. The regretful thing is that Jordan was not there when you won the championship, otherwise I believe you can beat him, and I will continue in your footsteps and surpass Jordan!"

It’s just such a remark about the second player, but no matter how many second players, it can make Olajuwon feel good to Olajuwon to some extent. When Olajuwon’s goodwill is generated, it will be infinitely amplified...

As for what Sun Ce said about "when he was a child", who cares? What happened when he was three or five years old can be made up as much as he likes...

After Sun Ce contacted Olajuwon at the "Dabo Club", he came to Los Angeles and paid a salary of US$50,000 per week at the normal price. The same treatment as Jordan included food and accommodation, a VIP card for the nightclub, and daily work. The nightclub can be replaced with "maids" to make Olajuwon even more favorable.

Olajuwon knew last year that Jordan taught Sun Ce for a month for free, and he was ready to teach Sun Ce for free. But anyone would be happier if he had good food, good housing, and paid salary.

Olajuwon therefore prepared more carefully.

Since July 19th, Sun Ce has been training with Olajuwon, usually every other day, mixed with theoretical knowledge, analysis, and experience lectures. Since Sun Ce’s basic skills have been very solid in the past few years,

The low-post skills are actually pretty good and top-notch. What Olajuwon teaches is more about experience and how to find a direction in the game that is more suitable for him and others.

Sun Ce was not idle the next day and used the S-level core strength training card from the beginning.

There are 6 stages in total, each stage lasts 6 days, and there are 6 training items every day. There is no hard requirement that the training must be completed in 36 days. I was in a hurry when I used the training card several times because there was a game to play at that time, so it was given to him. There is only so much time, now you can practice your technique and core strength at the same time.

Get up at 3:50 every morning to do morning exercises, which triggers "persistence at four in the morning" and gets the muscle memory bonus and understanding ability of training. If there is training with Olajuwon in the morning, practice it. If there is no training with Olajuwon, practice core strength. Training with Olajuwon usually only takes place in the morning. If the amount of training in the morning is not particularly heavy, then the core strength training card will be practiced in the afternoon. If the amount of training in the morning is heavy, then I will play with the two girls at home in the afternoon...

When he arrived in Los Angeles, Sun Ce learned that Aldridge had been practicing with Randolph and Pierce for several days. Aldridge, who had finished training with Pierce and Randolph, also came to the Olajuwon training camp. , still paying tuition, Olajuwon is in a good mood, and is very patient when teaching Aldridge. Sometimes Sun Ce is practicing core strength crazily, and Olajuwon teaches Aldridge specifically.

I have to say that in terms of low-post talent alone, Sun Ce feels that Aldridge is better than him, and his progress is too fast! Of course, this is related to the fact that Aldridge's high post play is inherently top-notch.

Aldridge's sudden low-post play reminded Sun Ce of the low-post king who was still selected for the second team at the age of 33 in the original time and space.

For Sun Ce, Olajuwon didn't just teach him the low post. He usually had a lot of training, which was all about shooting and technical movements. On the contrary, he didn't train much when practicing the low post.

Time passed day by day, and soon it was mid-August, and the enthusiasm for the free market gradually dissipated. Those players who at least had the ability to rotate in the NBA had already found a home or chose to stay with the team or go to play in other leagues.

This summer's free market is not as hot as expected. Except for Love and David West leaving the team, most of the other stars who have jumped out of their contracts have chosen to stay with the team.

Lopez signed a three-year, $60 million contract extension with the Nets, Millsap signed a three-year, $58 million extension with the Hawks, Tyson Chandler signed a four-year, $48 million extension with the Mavericks, and DeAndre Jordan signed a four-year, $85 million extension with the Suns. , Wade renewed his contract with the Heat for 1 year and 20 million, Gasol renewed his contract with the Raptors for 5 years and 110 million, Dragic renewed his contract with the Knicks for 5 years and 110 million.

These players, except for Jordan, all have one characteristic, such as Lopez, Millsap, Tyson Chandler, and Wade. These players may not be able to get bigger contracts in 2016. , Roy Hibbert's precedent has brought many teams to a stage where they need to consider it. They would rather use a larger contract to find players more suitable for the current rhythm in the summer of 2016, rather than poaching players at a lower price this summer. , it will be tragic if a hole is dug.

Most of the rookies in the 11th class have renewed their contracts. Leonard signed a 5-year, 90 million contract with the Lakers, Jimmy Butler signed a 5-year, 90 million contract with the Jazz, and Kanter signed a 4-year, 64 million sign-and-trade to join the Thunder. , Shumpert signed a two-year, $18.7 million contract extension with the Cavaliers, Tristan Thompson signed a two-year, $30 million contract extension with the Wizards...

Most of the 2011 rookies have renewed their contracts, and one chose to leave. Tobias Harris chose to join the Pistons for 50 million in three years. The Magic could not afford such a big contract.

After the players from the 2011 class played for four years, people suddenly discovered that the 2011 rookie class seemed to be the best overall performance in recent years except for the 2009 class! A lot of tens of millions of annual salaries and nearly tens of millions of annual salaries!

Finally, on August 20, Sun Ce received two good news at once!

…

"Congratulations to the host for learning low post singles to a level that satisfies Hakeem Olajuwon. Due to the host's training efforts, solid basic skills, and patient learning experience... Hakeem Olajuwon expressed his gratitude to the host. of overall satisfaction has met the special reward requirements for Blessings in Legend.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill card: Dream Steps. "

“Dream Footsteps: When the host gets a chance to score by turning around for a layup, a fadeaway shot, a step-up layup, etc. when playing in the low post, he will enter a hot-feeling state, and the bounce speed, bounce height, and explosive power will all increase by a small level. "

Sun Ce came to learn from Dameng. His initial goal was to transform Dameng's low-post hitting skills into dreamy footsteps. It was difficult for Sun Ce to figure out each person's personality, not to mention the kind of person who would change his mind within two days of meeting. Contact method to start training.

So Sun Ce didn't deliberately try to please others, just like asking others for advice before, just study hard and practice hard.

If one is willing to teach and the other learns attentively, and one is capable of teaching well and the other learns well, both parties will naturally be satisfied.

Sun Ce has used this skill twice with the Dream Peak Card. It is very easy to use, especially when the opponent encounters him for the first time after acquiring the skill, because it will produce subtle differences. This skill requires a shooting opportunity. There is a bonus, and the bonus to physical fitness is also very small, but details like low-post footwork, little improvements, are very important! Especially opponents who have played against him many times and are accustomed to the details of his singles in the past. If he suddenly speeds up a little bit, even just a little bit, it will play an important role.

The most powerful effect is that when you use your footsteps or threats to get shooting opportunities in the low post, you will enter a hot state.

Low post singles will inevitably lead to confrontation, and in the playoffs, it is likely to be a big-move confrontation. In that case, it is not easy to maintain the touch, just like the inability to make long shots after the touch was exhausted in the first half of the first game of the Finals. Advance, but playing from the low post can get you into a hot-feeling state!
