Chapter 1373 Team Selection

In fact, if skills are included, even though Li Ba is a world super sports star, he does not think that Li Ba can play in a top rugby league like the NFL.

This time, he actually just thought that this billionaire just wanted to play rugby.

Of course, Li Ba had already considered it. He immediately responded to Thomson's question: "I actually don't have a fixed choice. I hope to have more attempts."

This sentence made Thomson more sure of his thoughts. Li Ba just wanted to have fun.

Maybe this is a pastime for the rich? He smiled helplessly and said: "Iron Hammer, let's analyze it position by position."

"OK, go ahead." Li Ba nodded.

"Let's talk about the defensive team first. You are based on defense in the NBA..." Thomson said.

Li Ba nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.

Thomson continued: "Defensive forwards, including sharp ends, defensive tackles, and defensive ends, their targets are the opponent's halfback (a type of running back) and the quarterback before the pass, because they have to attack the opponent. He is an offensive inside forward, so this position is the strongest person on the entire team.

This position is the first defensive position of the defensive team. If you want to play this position with the Hammers, it is best to increase your tonnage and enhance your absolute strength. You need to gain weight to at least 120 to 125 kilograms and increase your bench press data. "

Li Ba thought for a while and said, "I don't reject this position. You can continue."

Thomson added: "The linebacker, the person who defends the opponent's running back, also helps defend the wide receivers and other receivers. They need very good interception skills. This position is also the second defensive position of the defensive team.

If you want to play this position with a hammer, your overall speed will be a bit slow due to your height, but you can still do it because your speed is okay. If you want to lose weight, you can choose to lose weight to 110 kilograms. "

Then he talked about the last defensive position of the defensive team, which is the defender.

"Backs are divided into cornerback, safety, and strongback. This position requires speed and agility. Some are not suitable. You are still too tall, which reduces your sensitivity."

Having said this, he concluded: "In general, as for the position of the defensive team, the most suitable position for you is the defensive forward."

Li Ba smiled and said: "It should be great to knock away the opponent's offensive lineman, sack the quarterback, and be on the NFL sack list, right?"

Thomson smiled a little cautiously and said, "Of course."

"Let's talk about the offensive team." Li Ba said with a smile.

"OK, let's talk about the quarterback first. This position is the brains of the team. He must be proficient in all tactics. The tactics issued by the coach must pass through him and be passed to the field, so he needs a very calm head, and he is the leader of the offense. As an initiator, he needs very good vision and passing skills."

When Thomson said this, he looked at Li Ba's two arms and big hands, and smiled: "Hammer, you have shown a very calm mind in the NBA, and you have also shown very good vision and passing skills. , plus your arms and hands, in terms of physical condition, you have the foundation of a quarterback."

Li Ba also nodded. He has locking skills and can basically lock the entire court. His vision is of course no problem. In terms of passing, with his arm strength and his big hands controlling the ball, short passes should be No problem, long passes require training.

But then he saw Thomson shake his head, and the other party said: "But you don't have any football foundation, you don't have any tactical foundation, it's very difficult to become a quarterback."

Li Ba also nodded, as he thought, even if he wants to play quarterback, it is not now, but in the future.

But he believes that even in his forties or fifties, his body can still maintain high quality. His sports career is still very long, and he will have the opportunity and time to train.

Thomson added: "Running backs are people who run and attack with the ball. They are divided into half guards and full guards. They need strength and speed, as well as the ability to change speed. Your physical fitness and athletic quality can also be suitable. This position is more suitable for fullbacks.

Fullbacks are the strongest of the running backs. They open the way in front, knock off the opponent's defensive linemen, and cover the halfbacks behind who are attacking with the ball.

Running backs also need the calmest minds and vision. After receiving the ball from the quarterback, they first protect the ball, and then observe the situation on the field to determine the most advantageous sprint route.

When the running back decides to throw the ball, they can also become receivers or assist the offensive lineman in protecting the quarterback. "

"The third position on the offensive team, wide receiver, hammer, is the same as the linebacker on the defensive team. You are not very suitable for this position."

"The fourth position is the tight end, which must have the ability to catch the ball and open the way. Sometimes it assists the offensive interior forward in blocking, and sometimes it serves as a receiver. In the passing attack, they are the quarterback's spear, running the ball. On offense, they’re the quarterback’s shield.”

Thomson continued.

Li Ba nodded. When he was blocking, he was a shield, and when he was opening a path, he was a spear.

But he doesn't like the position of tight end very much. If he plays this position, he might as well play as a defensive forward and sack the opponent's quarterback. That should be more enjoyable than blocking shots on the basketball court.

Thomson talked about the position of the last offensive group: "The offensive linemen, they stand at the forefront of the offense to protect the quarterback, and they also protect the halfbacks in the running attack.

Like defensive forwards, offensive linemen are the strongest people in the offensive group and are divided into centers, guards and tackles by position.

This position, given your conditions, is very suitable for you, Iron Hammer. "

After introducing all the positions, Thomson said: "My suggestion is to choose a defensive forward or an offensive inside forward."

Of course, there is no need to tell Thomson what Li Ba chooses.

Next, he learned more about the situation in the NFL, and then sent Thomson away after paying a considerable amount of compensation.

After the guests left, they chatted with Bill Duffy again.

"Bill, just now Mr. Thomson said that 12 of the 32 teams in the NFL have never won the Super Bowl. Which team do you think I should choose?"

Li Ba asked.

Bill Duffy immediately started thinking about it.

He did not consider whether Li Ba would have the opportunity to join these teams, because let alone these teams, even some of the strongest teams in the NFL would not refuse a billionaire ranked among the top 20 in the world, and this rich man He is still a super sports star. Even if Li Ba is just playing for a ticket, their boss will not refuse.

What's more, NFL President Goodell has already made an open invitation.

In addition, he believes that Li Ba does not need to participate in the draft at all, which is not worthy of his superstar status. Li Ba needs to join the NFL as a super sports superstar, not as a rookie.

Of course, he also understands the reason why Li Ba chose to join a team that has not won the championship.

In the NFL, since the Super Bowl, the Pittsburgh Steelers have won the most championships, six times. The San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys have also won five times each. But as Li Ba, joining such a team, even if he Being able to play in the NFL is just the icing on the cake.

And joining some teams that have no history of winning championships, once they play well and win the championship, as long as Li Ba's performance is decisive, the meaning to Li Ba will be completely different.

But he pondered for a long time, because he didn't know the NFL very well and couldn't give a reason, which made him a little embarrassed.
