Chapter 852: Completely Different Training Between Durant and Yes

On April 18, 2009, in Austin, Texas, 128 kilometers away from San Antonio, at the training facility of the University of Texas at Austin, Seattle SuperSonics players were making final preparations for the game against the Spurs.

The University of Texas at Austin is the alma mater of Sonics players P.J. Tucker and Durant.

Therefore, in Austin, the Seattle SuperSonics have always had quite terrifying support.

Basically, every time I come to Texas for a game, this is where the Seattle SuperSonics are based.

Even the current star player Damai James of the University of Texas was Durant's substitute. Dexter Pittman, the star insider who suddenly emerged at the University of Texas this year, was also Durant's younger brother and sidekick. A second-hand player.

It can be said that because of Durant and Tucker, the relationship between the Seattle SuperSonics and the University of Texas at Austin is too deep.

Basically, every time the Seattle SuperSonics come to Austin, the place is surrounded by water.

In Austin, the Mavericks and Spurs are definitely not as popular as the Seattle SuperSonics.

For these college students in Austin, they really don't care whether the Sonics are expected to be swept out of this year's playoffs by the revengeful Spurs.

They simply don't care how far the Sonics can go this year.

As an ordinary football fan, watching the excitement is just human nature sometimes.

The excitement of the Seattle SuperSonics is always so good to watch.

Of course, this is the atmosphere outside the Texas training facility, but inside the training facility it is a different scene.

"The Seattle SuperSonics have given up early now, right?"

"It seems that I really gave up early..."

In the training hall of the University of Texas, many reporters from China, the United States, and the world were whispering.

"I just came from San Antonio. At the Spurs training ground, the Spurs players are also very relaxed, but I can see that the Spurs, both players and coaches, are very, very confident. Although their mentality is very relaxed, they train very hard. , that atmosphere is truly the atmosphere of preparing for the playoffs.”

"As for the Supersonics..."

Although there are many exciting and fierce matchups in the first round of this year's NBA playoffs.

But there is no doubt that this matchup between the Spurs and SuperSonics is definitely the most watched, and the most reporters come here.

Although there seems to be no suspense about the outcome of this duel, the popularity of Yes and Bowen is too high.

The two candidates for NBA regular season MVP this year.

Another showdown between the No. 1 offensive player and the No. 1 defensive player in NBA history.

The first playoff matchup between the two two years ago is now being called one of the greatest playoff matchups in NBA history.

As a CCTV reporter who followed the SuperSonics throughout the playoffs, Wang Han had a serious look on her face as she listened to the discussions of her colleagues from all over the world.

Her worries are not unnecessary. These colleagues from all over the world are not coconut black, and most of them are even coconut flour.

It's just that recently, the SuperSonics' situation is really not very good.

On the Spurs side, Spurs head coach Popovich was very confident during the interview.

On the contrary, on the SuperSonics side, SuperSonics head coach Nelson is quite cautious.

On the Spurs side, the Spurs players are equally confident. Every time they are interviewed, they adopt the posture of ‘we perform normally and no one can beat us’. This is to say that as long as they don’t make mistakes,

There is no suspense at all in this series with the SuperSonics.

What about the Sonics?

When the SuperSonics players were being interviewed, they all said, "We will go all out in this series." This voice basically changed the direction and said that we worked hard, and in the end We cannot guarantee what the result will be.

According to their statistics, CCTV conducted statistics on major influential media experts in the United States.

Not only in ESPN's predictions, the Spurs' promotion support is as high as 90%.

Coupled with the statistics of experts from other media across the United States, the Spurs' promotion rate also exceeded 90%, and most experts gave a score of 4-0, and 4-1 is quite rare.

"If Yes can't break through Bowen's blockade, I don't think the Sonics can beat the Spurs."

"The regular season is the regular season, and the playoffs are the playoffs. It is impossible to expect other Spurs players to be undercover next to Bowen in the playoffs."

"When other Spurs players are undercover next to Bowen, the Sonics can only win by one or two points at most. You can hardly expect that the Sonics can win when the Spurs players are not undercover."

"4-0! This series is 4-0! We can also understand those who are willing to predict the big score of this series to be 4-1. They believe that the miracle of Yes will be born in this series. One game.”

"It's just that the Spurs are different from other teams. No matter how strong the team is, Yes can produce miracles. I also want to believe this. But the Spurs have Bowen, and Bowen is the best person to put Yes's miracle in a cage. As a strong player, it is difficult for Yes to create miracles in front of Bowen. Therefore, this is why in this year’s playoff prediction, the teams with Yes will all go 4-0. At least 90% of the experts in the world do not I believe Yes can create a miracle when facing Bowen, even if it’s just one game!”

This is the current public opinion in the United States, which is really unfavorable to the Sonics.

The voice of public opinion can affect a person's judgment.

Even CCTV reporters like them, no matter how much Chinese reporters trust Ye Si, they will be quite worried in such a public opinion atmosphere.

"Have the Seattle SuperSonics really given up, as others have said?"

Wang Han didn't know, and she didn't dare to ask Ye Si like this.

But judging from her situation with the team, other Sonics players really don't seem that tight.

And Ye Si himself...

Seeing Ye Si holding a very hard bow and doing archery movements, Wang Han really didn't know what to say.

Ye Si's training has always been unique, and the whole world knows this.

His special training methods have always been the most popular training methods for internet celebrities on YouTube.

This includes hitting the baseball bat, kicking the butt, and even training methods that have been promoted as training methods that all shooters in the NBA must master, including shooting from a high platform, etc.

Ye Si's training methods have never been predictable.

However, no matter how strange Ye Si's training methods are, Ye Si is not so childish when he uses these special methods to train.

For example, when Ye Si was training to pick up a baseball bat, he would do it for a month.

very serious.

Although this training method is very strange, Ye Si is very dedicated and serious, as if this training method can really make him improve.

But what about the last two days?

She counted, and Ye Si had changed a total of seventeen strange training methods in the past two days!

Not to mention this peculiar training of holding a hard bow, stretching the bow and setting an arrow.

Ye Si even performed a lion dance yesterday, with one person holding a lion's head and flying up and down on the bench and high platform.

There was also flying swords. He threw seven flying swords into the sky at once and then threw them in a cycle. Many media reporters nearby were dumbfounded and applauded one after another. Among them, the one who applauded the most was the reporter from San Antonio. That one is so happy, that one is so happy, just use his own salary to reward him.

The two special training methods that Ye Si played yesterday are just representatives of other training methods in the past two days.

Although other training methods are not as unique, they are similar.

It can be said that this time, Ye Si has played so many special training methods in two days. If you really give her one, has Ye Si given up?

Is Ye Si already looking for his own happiness and letting himself go?

To be honest, Ye Si's seventeen special training methods have indeed caused a very, very big sensation on the Internet.

The most viewed videos on YouTube in a week are all about Ye Si’s special training methods.

only……

This really doesn’t work!

Anyone can give up, but Ye Si really can’t give up!

Although Bowen and the Spurs are indeed strong, and although the SuperSonics are indeed close to death, Ye Si really can't just lie flat without fighting!

Because Yao Ming did not enter the playoffs this season, Ye Si is where the expectations of Chinese fans lie.

Although Sun Yue and the United Arab Emirates have also entered the playoffs, the Wizards and Timberwolves are indeed not expected to go too far.

As soon as the Wizards reached the playoffs, Arenas was okay with three All-Stars left, but the Timberwolves were too young.

Only the SuperSonics, who unexpectedly won the championship last season, seemed to be doing okay, but they met the Spurs in the first round!

How great it would be if the SuperSonics were seventh place, touching the Lakers!

If it doesn't work out, it's okay to go against the Nuggets in sixth place!

But it’s the Spurs!

"Mr. Nelson, is Yes a little too decadent recently?"

In fact, it is not just reporters like Wang Han who feel that Ye Si has been somewhat controversial in the past two days, as SuperSonics assistant coach Mari Kroos is also a little worried.

Strange ways to train to become stronger, Thaksin.

But he definitely doesn't believe that changing training methods so frequently can make him stronger!

No matter how you look at it, Yes seems like giving up on treatment.

"When you become a head coach there is always someone you can trust absolutely, and Yes is someone you can trust 100 percent."

Nelson said with a smile.

Many people are worried because Yes has not been doing its job properly in the past two days.

He is different.

Before Yes stopped doing his job, he was actually very anxious.

Although he has a slight advantage over Popovich in terms of tactics, the Spurs are currently playing a simplified version of his tactical system. It can be said that the tactics Popovich is playing now were taught by him.

However, Bowen's restrictions on Yes are indeed great, and now except for Yes, the Sonics have no other strong points that they can attack in the playoffs.

Milicic can be a strong point against other teams, but this opponent is the Spurs, and the Spurs have Duncan.

The whole world knows that Duncan in the regular season and Duncan in the playoffs are two completely different species.

And Duncan is precisely the player that Milicic is least good at dealing with.

It's very difficult.

It can be said that in this series between the Supersonics and the Spurs, with the whole world looking down on him, old Nelson really doesn't know how to break the deadlock.

But seeing what Yes did in the past two days, he was relieved.

He is different from other people in the world. To him, Yes is someone he trusts 100%. He absolutely does not believe that Yes will give up on himself, and he absolutely does not believe that Yes is a person who gives up treatment when he is desperate.

Although he doesn't know why Yes does this, Yes is definitely thinking about how to break the deadlock.

He doesn't know how to break the deadlock with the Spurs now.

There is no way to start.

But Yes, although his move is strange, he is indeed moving!

Compared with the worries of these people, he is very much looking forward to what method Yes will use in this series to deal with Bowen, who is so powerful and the nightmare of all offensive players in the entire league!

"He will never let you down, if you absolutely trust him!"

Looking at the unusual light flashing in old Nelson's eyes, Malik Ross's face was full of surprise.

"Did Mr. Nelson teach me a lot of basketball and tactics? Of course, that's for sure, but that's not why Mr. Nelson asked me to leave the Supersonics and become the head coach of the Bulls."

"When I learned to absolutely trust the players I trusted, Mr. Nels said I could leave."

Malik Ross remembered what the Bulls head coach Scott Brooks, the biggest favorite for the best coach this season, said in an interview.

Of course, old Nelson would not guess the thoughts of his assistants. In addition to his absolute trust in Yes, he actually appreciated Yes's doing so.

That is, Yes's seemingly self-indulgent behavior instantly made the pressure in the Supersonics disappear.

This is very important!

Some time ago, the team was very anxious.

Defending champion!

It's true that the Supersonics ranked eighth in the regular season this season, but they are also the defending champions!

As the defending champion, they will be eliminated in the first round, and everyone's mental state will have some problems.

Even though the young players of the Supersonics are very resistant to pressure, they are still anxious.

They dare not accept the result of the defending champion being eliminated in the first round.

But Yes seemed to accept it on the surface, which made the young players of the Supersonics who followed Yes's lead put down all their anxiety.

Perhaps the most anxious person in the whole team now is Durant.

Others seem to think that being swept out by the Spurs in the first round is no problem and accept it.

But Durant really can't accept it.

He hasn't returned this season, and then the team's season is over.

Is this still a good thing?

So Durant's face has not been very good in the past two days.

Not only is his offensive state very bad, but also because he is very dissatisfied with the state of the team.

But for Durant, old Nelson is still very satisfied.

This player who has missed a season is now in a really bad offensive state!

But his defense is simply incomparable to before the injury!

Durant's current defense has improved a lot. His defensive quality and talent are very good. The previous poor defense was mainly due to basketball IQ and weight problems.

Durant's defensive IQ was really poor before, and his weight was really light. Although he gained weight, he is still light.

But after not playing for a year, Durant's body became fatter, and his IQ also improved when defending. According to him, he watched more games seriously this year than in his entire career.

This is really a gratifying thing.

It is precisely because of the weight gain that Durant feels as if he is playing with someone else's body on the offensive end.

Durant now needs time to adapt to his body, which is already somewhat completely different.

As for how much time it will take to fully adapt, old Nelson doesn't know, but if Durant is allowed to play against the Spurs now, Durant will definitely be embarrassed!

Now in the eyes of the whole world, the Seattle Supersonics are a little shaky, but for old Nelson, the current Supersonics are thriving.

As long as they get through the Spurs, which may be the biggest disaster for the Supersonics this season, there is a sunny road waiting for the Supersonics!

Yes, you will definitely not let me down, right?

Yes ignored the various gazes coming from all directions, and concentrated on using all his strength to pull the six-stone strong bow in his hand.

Every time he pulled the strong bow to the full, the sweat on Yes's face would come out uncontrollably.

This is the method he found to train strength.

And it is a useful method.

"Yes's strong bow has been changed to six stones now, right?"

Many Chinese reporters were shocked when they saw Yes slowly making the full bow shooting eagle posture.

The stone in the six-stone strong bow is a unit of weight in the Han Dynasty. One stone is about 30 kilograms, and six stones is 180 kilograms!

In ancient times, only those legendary strong generals could pull such a strong bow!

For example, Xiang Yu, it is said that Xiang Yu can use a 20-stone strong bow on land, and can use a 6-stone strong bow immediately.

"Yes's bow has a pulling force of 180 kilograms!"

"This is the second strongest force among active guards!"

"The strongest active force is O'Neal's 210 kilograms, followed by Ben Wallace, 202 kilograms, James is 190 kilograms, Wade is 187 kilograms, and Yes is already ranked fifth in active service, with a force of 180 kilograms!"

"If I remember correctly, the strongest guard is Jordan's 200 kilograms, right?"

"Yes, Jordan is the strongest guard. It is said that Chamberlain is the strongest among all people, 250 kilograms, but there is no record. The record is Karl Malone's 230 kilograms!"

The strength of strength is very important, which is related to the core strength in the power confrontation on the court.

However, power confrontation does not completely depend on core strength, but also on weight and the way of exerting force.

Although O'Neal's maximum force of the whole body is only 210 kilograms, he has no problem beating Jordan, whose strength is only 10 kilograms lower than his.

Of course, O'Neal had no problem beating Jordan, but when he met Malone, he was beaten.

Seeing Yes shooting a 180-kilogram bow, the male reporters were amazed, while the female reporters' eyes were shining.

So handsome!

Yes's posture of shooting a eagle with a full bow was so handsome!

Even Durant, who had been angry in the past two days, was stunned.

He was really handsome. He could swear that if Yes's training video of shooting a eagle with a full bow was posted on the Internet, there would be another wave of sitting and queuing for L!

However, this sense of power is really pleasing to the eye.

A man should be full of power to be handsome.

When he was drafted, his strength was not even 100 kilograms. After a year of rest, his body became fat, and his legs were not in good condition, so he trained his upper limbs. His strength was also trained to about 150 kilograms.

But it was really incomparable with Yes.

And he was a small forward, while Yes was a guard!

And such a thin body concealed such terrifying energy. It must be said that this was really a miracle!

Ten shots in ten minutes!

And each one must last for 10 seconds!

After completing these, Yes's strength will be +1!

Opening a five-stone bow provides Yes with a total of 3 strength.

Yes definitely can't open a six-stone bow.

With a basic strength attribute of 83, coupled with the 10% strength bonus of Yao Ming's card, Yes's actual strength reached 91.3. 91.3 strength is just enough to open a six-stone bow, which is very, very strenuous.

However, persistence is victory!

Because Yes knows that as long as he continues to persist, he will get easier and easier!

Ten minutes, ten times!

Strength +1!

Ten minutes, ten times!

Strength +1!

Ten minutes, ten times!

Strength +1!

"Am I having an illusion?"

"Why do I feel that Yes is getting easier and easier?"

"Yes's actual strength is definitely more than 180 kilograms!"

"Yes may be the strongest guard in active service, surpassing Wade!"

Strength +1 for four times!

The fifth time, when Yes completed ten minutes and ten times again, his strength did not change at all.

"Has the training effect of the six-stone bow completely disappeared?"

However, this is not surprising, as Yes had already prepared a seven-stone bow.

"What is that?!"

"Seven-stone bow?!"

"A bow with 210 kilograms of strength!"

"Yes/Yes is going to use a seven-stone/210-kilogram bow?!"

210 kilograms!

This is the first strength that directly challenges the guard players!

With a snap!

The bow was actually pulled open...

At the same time, the bow flew out uncontrollably and hit the wall not far away...

For a moment, the entire Texas University training hall, which was crowded with people, fell silent.

"Have you watched Yes's latest training video?"

"I have!"

In the Spurs' meeting room, all the Spurs players who were organizing to watch the first day of the NBA playoffs today nodded.

Seeing the shocked expressions on the players' faces, Popovich is still in shock.

That incredible power!

When Yes first entered the league, he even thought about catching Yes's weakness of insufficient strength.

Although Yes failed to use the 210kg bow in the end, even if Yes's strength did not exceed Jordan's 210kg, it definitely exceeded Wade's 187kg!

How terrifying!

Popovich and the Spurs players now looked at Bowen with eyes full of wonder and admiration.

He could actually defend Yes one-on-one, how amazing is that?

It was as amazing as a dream!

On the other side, in the hotel where the Seattle Supersonics stayed, Yes put down the bow in his hand.

Strength: 99/90 (90).

No need for a 210kg bow, a 190kg bow can continue to increase strength.

The strength potential of the four-star Yao Ming card has been fully trained, and he can finally use Li Gen's three-star card.

Strength: 108/90 (90).

Yes picked up the 210kg strong bow again.

With a swish!

The bow is opened!
