One Thousand Five Hundred and Fifty-Three. This Is a Very Honest Person.
On December 12, after a day of rest, the Grizzlies began preparations for the game against the Thunder.
Sun Ce completed the triggering conditions for persistence at four in the morning, took a rest, had breakfast, and arrived at the arena at 7:40 in the morning.
When he arrived at the arena, Sun Ce discovered that he was not the first one today!
Over the past two years, only one player has occasionally come to practice earlier than him — Jimmy Butler.
Sun Ce changed his jersey and entered the training ground. He saw Paul George in the passing training area, smashing the ball on the floor and bouncing to the designated spot on the wall.
This is what Sun Ce has practiced hard. This is already the second stage. The first stage is to pass the ball directly to the designated position. After the ball is passed out, he must move to the position where it will bounce back in advance.
After saying hello, Sun Ce continued to practice shooting from the left side of the three-second zone, layup skills under the basket, and cross-step changes on the outside after finishing the warm-up... He waited for his teammates to arrive and held a tactical meeting.
On Paul George's side, after a group of passing training, he watched Sun Ce train for a while.
Sun Ce's skills are becoming more and more comprehensive, and Paul George can accept it, but he saw Sun Ce shoot 50 three-pointers at a 45-degree angle from the right side, and then go to the left side of the three-second zone and shoot 100 left-handed mid-range shots...
According to expert analysis, Sun Ce is a unique "bilateral dexterity" genius, also commonly known as a double-hander.
In fact, Sun Ce is not the only two-hander in the NBA. Their old teammate Mike Conley is a famous two-hander. In college, he used his left hand for anatomy exercises and his right hand for writing. The two are interchangeable.
But when it comes to playing basketball, Mike Conley doesn't go out and do something with his dominant hand.
No matter how you think about it, if you choose one hand and practice for so long, even if you develop the area you are not good at, you will already have the muscle memory for shooting. Re-developing the other hand, even if it is the dominant hand, is a choice that is far away from the nearest.
But Sun Ce was a maverick and had to develop his left hand. His teammates, coaches, and trainers all tried to persuade him, but he refused to listen... and he actually developed it.
Paul George feels that he is already a genius. His draft template is Gay, a second-year genius who averaged 20+ points per game. Gay's draft template is Tracy McGrady... which is roughly equivalent to his draft template of Paul George. Maddie.
This is definitely the biggest compliment for talent. When Paul George was in college, he basically regarded himself as a pitcher and wanted to play in a more disciplined style, but he was an inside player in high school... He was almost as tall as he is now after graduating from high school.
It basically didn’t grow much later.
Even in college, I was able to practice dribbling well, and it was not easy to be able to develop three-pointers.
Entering the NBA, Paul George has mastered breakthroughs, passed the ball well, and his long-distance shooting has become even better... It's already surprising. I thought the Grizzlies chose a defensive three-point forward, but he turned out to be an all-around forward. Swingman.
However, Paul George feels that he is better than Sun Ce...this is what he calls a genius!
Paul George wanted to study Sun Ce, but he thought it was too troublesome. He might as well practice his passing.
There are Randolph, Gasol, and Yi Jianlian on the inside. Stoudemire is about to return. It is said that he has received permission from the team doctor to play.
There are Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, and Livingston on the outside. Hardaway Jr.'s immediate combat ability is also good. Paul George feels that he does not need to deliberately increase the number of shots. It is not necessary!
How sweet it is to average 5+ assists per game! Although he had to help Sun Ce get a triple-double in the past few games and his assists per game dropped to 4.5, Paul George didn't care and would always get back up.
As for when he communicated with Sun Ce in the summer, Sun Ce promised to give him the right to take action. Because of this, Paul George was determined to play well in the next year, but he did not accept it.
What Paul George admires most about Sun Ce is not his strength or honor, but that Sun Ce will do whatever the team needs. He also wants to be such a player.
The key is that Paul George thinks he can become such a player.
…
At nine o'clock in the morning, the teammates arrived, and the coaching staff held a tactical meeting to discuss tomorrow's game.
At the beginning, the coaching staff announced bad news. Larry Sanders will need to rest for about a week due to an elbow injury.
But there is also good news. There is one more person in today's tactical meeting - Stoudemire!
On Prince's side, as a veteran, he suffered a groin strain and his recovery was relatively slow. The team is not in a hurry to get him back. Such an experienced veteran has a sprint record in the late regular season and key defense in the playoffs. It is more necessary, just like Shane for the past three years.
Sun Ce lamented that his team was in trouble. Stoudemire was about to come back, but Larry Sanders was injured!
After the tactical meeting, Sun Ce found Larry Sanders.
Sun Ce had not heard that Larry Sanders was injured. In the last game he lost to the Bulls, Larry Sanders played 20 minutes and was not injured in the process.
It's unlikely that he was injured during his break yesterday. This guy said after the game the night before yesterday that he wanted to create at home... Can you injure yourself by painting? Even if the painting hurts, it should be the injury to the ear.
After repeated questioning, Larry Sanders said: "I fell when I was playing against the Clippers and my right hand hit the floor..."
Playing the Clippers? That was almost a week ago!
Sun Ce had a vague impression. In the next few games, Larry Sanders seemed to dunk with his left hand!
I didn’t pay attention at the time!
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"At that time, the team was short of players, and the trainer discovered I had a problem with my elbow when I was icing the night before..."
Sun Ce was speechless, Larry Sanders... this artist who fell in love with poetry and distance in time and space and ruined his NBA career is indeed too honest!
It seems like this guy is a bit stubborn.
Sun Ce patted Larry Sanders on the shoulder, told him to have a good rest, and went to coach Hollins to find out more.
Fortunately, Larry Sanders was taken by the team for a detailed examination yesterday. It was only an elbow injury, not a structural injury.
This made Sun Ce feel relieved.
That's it for now, there's nothing more to say.
Sun Ce can only thank Nash who was willing to train with him, an ordinary college student who was not sure whether he could enter the NBA. At that time, he held back his energy and trained as hard as he could, reaching a level that satisfied Nash, and finally obtained the magical "Nash Training Method" Skills.
To say that the person most affected by Larry Sanders' injury is not his grandson, but Randolph.
The fat version of Randolph's best teammate is Larry Sanders, who is both offensive and defensive.
Coupled with Stoudemire's comeback, Sun Ce knew in the tactical meeting that he would enter the adjustment stage again!
