Four Hundred and Sixty-Seven. Boss Joe's Careful Thoughts
On the evening of September 20th, US time, when he arrived at the hotel in Los Angeles, Sun Ce saw the news. In the morning here, the NBA officially announced the schedule of each team.
For now, the most important thing is the preseason.
The preseason itself is not an important game, winning or losing doesn't matter, but playing these few games is very important to the players of each team.
This is the key to allowing the body to readjust to the rhythm, confrontation, etc. of the NBA after a few months of rest.
It is very important to get the body back to the rhythm of the NBA.
In the Silver era in the future, in order to extend the regular season and reduce the number of regular season back-to-backs, the preliminary plan is to start the training camp one week in advance, then reduce the number of preseason games, and increase the regular season time by about 10 days, so that all teams Reduced 6 to 7 back to back.
It seems to be a good thing, but because of the reduction in the number of preseason games, many players on each team who did not train much in the summer got injured after playing for a long time in the regular season, and they were injured one after another.
Not every player will train hard in the summer, and even many All-Star players, especially veterans, have very little training arrangements during the offseason. After all, some players finished playing last season in June. At the end of May and the beginning of June, after seven or eight months of competition, if you train hard in the summer, you will not be able to play in the new season.
For these players, training camps and preseason games must be used to get back the feeling of the body and avoid injuries due to the sudden increase in the amount of exercise in the regular season.
Like Nash, he was eliminated early in the 2008-09 season. He only trained until the end of June and ended his training. From July to September, except for the necessary training to maintain his body and occasional shooting training, he basically did not touch basketball. He would rather Go play football and run.
For these players, a week of training camp time and eight or so preseason games are very suitable for them to get back the feeling of their bodies.
At the same time, it is also the time for each team to adjust their tactics at the beginning of the season. After all, after an offseason, each team will have some changes more or less. The regular season can quickly enter the state.
However, when Sun Ce looked at his team's preseason schedule... he was speechless.
The Grizzlies have a total of six games in the preseason, which is two games less than usual. This will obviously have a certain impact on the Grizzlies' tactical run-in at the beginning of the season.
Forget it, six preseason games, and three overseas games!
The Grizzlies started the regular season late among the 30 teams,
The game will start on November 1st, and from October 11th to October 27th is the preseason time.
The time for the first three games is the most relaxed. On the 11th, they will play La Liga Real Madrid in Spain, on the 16th they will play the Mavericks in the Imperial Capital, on the 18th they will play the Mavericks in Shanghai, on the 21st they will play away games against the Heat, and on the 24th and 27th they will return to home for two consecutive games. Hit the wasps.
"The person who arranged the schedule has a grudge against us, right?" Sun Ce felt the deepest malice from this world!
Sun Ce feels that this has something to do with the fact that he just helped the national team win the World Championships. On the European side, the Chinese team is now famous, so he is naturally the one with the most limelight.
In addition to the Grizzlies and Gasol Jr., the former Barcelona star, the two are superimposed, and they are more suitable for playing Barcelona than the Lakers.
However, after looking at the Mavericks' preseason schedule, Sun Ce has a balance. They also have to go to Europe to play a game against Bundesliga Leverkusen.
The schedule cannot be changed. Sun Ce felt a pain in his stomach, but returned his attention to the present moment.
I made an appointment to train together on the 22nd, not to say I will only go there on the 22nd.
Having been in this circle for so long, Sun Ce knows that some people value face very much.
Like some old-school players in the league, they value face very much.
This is especially true for the group of superstars in the 1980s. Tomorrow, Sun Ce plans to visit the address of the villa sent by Boss Qiao in advance.
After some preparations, on the morning of the 21st, Sun Ce called Boss Qiao ahead of time. After getting a satisfactory response from the other party, he went to Boss Qiao's vacation home in Manhattan Beach...
Before that, Sun Ce also contacted the team, and the Grizzlies issued a notice to the Bobcats agreeing to train with Sun Ce and Jordan.
...
...
"Why is your mid-range shooting accuracy so poor? You are not as accurate as my left-handed shot. What happened?"
"I've only been playing for a little over a year..."
"I don't care! Anyway, it's bad!"
"..."
"Practice! Practice hard for me! Just stay at my house and practice shooting for me in the morning every day, and I will teach you techniques in the afternoon..."
It was agreed to start practicing on the 22nd, but on the 21st, after having lunch at Boss Qiao's house, I started practicing in the afternoon.
Just after warming up, Sun Ce was rejected by Boss Qiao...
According to Boss Joe, Sun Ce's mid-range shot is as smelly as a stinky gutter, not as accurate as his left-handed shot after he retired so many years ago.
Sun Ce expressed doubts about the fact that Boss Joe hadn't allowed his left hand, but after seeing Boss Qiao standing at the free throw line and making 9 of 10 free throws with his left hand... Sun Ce has nothing to say, let's practice hard!
On the first day we met, Sun Ce started hard training. Boss Qiao came up from time to time to point out the details of Sun Ce's training. He found that Sun Ce's shooting movements except for the hook were quite good. They were slightly different from his, and closer to standard action.
But the training method is very stupid, so I just practiced hard without thinking about the small details such as shooting movements, take-off movements, and exertion movements.
Hard training is very important, but thinking is also very important. Boss Qiao taught Sun Ce some thinking habits that he should have during training.
This is not a question of whether the brain is good or not, but a matter of habit. Every time you finish a set, or 10 shots, or 50 shots, you have to think carefully about why those who didn’t make shots didn’t make shots. Of those, which ones are lucky, and which ones are really invested by ability...
Not to mention, it's much more interesting to have someone teach you than to practice by yourself, and you can improve faster!
Although shooting accuracy, that is, muscle memory needs to be improved step by step, but you can learn more things, and it is the same as many people who go to the gym and know how to practice even if they know how to use all the equipment. They still like to find a personal trainer, which is more boring. Feel better about your personal training.
From 2:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., Sun Ce has been practicing shooting. After dinner, he went to practice the Nash training method to prepare for tomorrow's training.
Boss Qiao looked at Sun Ce's training attitude... He is still very satisfied. Although the basic skills are not good, it is good to be willing to practice. After all, they are not yet 21 years old. At that time, they were still in their sophomore years, and it was still too early to enter the NBA. with.
Boss Qiao's serious teaching, the most important thing is not Sun Ce's future, but... face!
After the World Championships, Boss Qiao somehow added another "successor", that is, the kid in front of him.
But there is another saying that Sun Ce is still more like Kidd.
Although he doesn't say anything, Boss Qiao is very concerned about the matter of "successor".
When there is a young player who plays well, if he is dubbed a certain successor, it will undoubtedly be a very face-saving thing for this "so-and-so".
Boss Joe definitely hopes that all superstars will be "Jordan's successors", so that he can always pretend to be a force, making people forget how good he is as a boss...
Now that Sun Ce has been crowned as Jordan's successor, if he doesn't make a good shot in the future, and the World Championships was just an accidental explosion, maybe he won't be regarded as Jordan's successor.
The most important thing is that if Sun Ce gives up the skill of turning over and jumping in the NBA, and continues to develop Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's hook... Boss Joe is worried that others will say, "Is it worth learning from Jordan or learning from the sky hook?" Niubi".
Anyway, no matter what, Boss Qiao decided to teach him well!
After teaching it, he is awesome, anyway, he has nothing else to do except pick up girls and gamble.
And he thinks that Sun Ce can be practiced. Although he can jump like a matchbox and not as high as his 47-year-old age, Sun Ce has enough height and wingspan, and he has become stronger this summer. The explosive power has become stronger, which is stronger than when he came back for the second time.
Therefore, Boss Qiao specially made a training plan for Sun Ce. He also has a bad taste, wanting to see Sun Ce being too tired to bear the pain during training...
...
However, in the next few days, what surprised Boss Qiao was that although Sun Ce was exhausted every day, he practiced shooting in the morning and followed him in the afternoon to practice technical details such as high turns, turning over, and leaning back. Doing strength training or aerobic training, the key is that you can continue to practice vigorously the next day!
This surprised Boss Joe!
"This kid is really a genius! Teach this kid out to stop that kid in Los Angeles from winning more championships...the Grizzlies seem to have a chance to do it..."
Boss Joe had another idea.
Although he said that he hopes that someone can surpass him in the future, how can he really hope that someone can surpass him in his heart?
Of course he hopes to become the first person in basketball history forever.
As for digging Sun Ce to Bobcats?
Although Jordan's personality is not very generous, he still has a bit of vengeance, just like he forced the American men's basketball team not to let the smiling assassin enter the dream team, but he is very face-saving.
He didn't want to use the matter of teaching Sun Ce to tempt or coerce Sun Ce to join his team. He taught Sun Ce, and he wanted to teach.
And...he knows the situation of his own team, and it is feasible to attract purely talented players. Potential stocks with high popularity and talent with a bright future...only ghosts will come.
"Anyway, I seem to be quite free. See when this kid is free in the future, say hello to the Grizzlies, teach this kid more, and let him become an obstacle for the two guys in Los Angeles and Miami to win the championship!"
Boss Joe feels like a genius! Even if he doesn't play ball anymore, even if he is a good boss, he can still stir up the situation in the league with a curve!

I went to the office early to complete this chapter that I wrote a few hundred words last night, and updated it before 1:00 noon.
