Chapter 475 Core Strength
After the series between the Raptors and the Heat ended in G6, the Raptors' season officially ended. The NBA playoffs are so cruel, because there is only one championship. 16 playoff teams, the final winner, only one team.
For Xiong, the 2011-2012 season is not a failure, but rather a success.Failure to win the championship can only be said that this season has not been perfect, but the Raptors did not have the real strength to win the championship.His progress this year has shocked the world.Now he is already a superstar, there is no doubt about it.
In the villa in Toronto, Sun Jing only stayed for one day, and returned to China early because of school matters.Ying Xiong did not keep her. He is not a willful person, and he will not forcefully keep her because he needs companionship selfishly.
Before sending Sun Jing to the plane, when the two parted, Ying Xiong held her hand tightly and said word by word: "I will go back to China to see you soon!"
"Yeah!" Sun Jing nodded with a smile and said goodbye to Ying Xiong.
Parting is always so sad, even if you know it is only temporary, but when that time comes, your heart will always be so sad and depressed.
Shao Ziqiang was retained by Ying Xiong and stayed in Toronto for a few more days.He is no longer the head coach of the basketball team of Yuezhou No. [-] Middle School and Yuezhou University, but a basketball consultant, which makes him not need to stay in school all the time to guide the players in training and competition.
One day at the end of May, Ying Xiong drove his Lexus off-road vehicle to play golf with his mentor Shao Ziqiang at a golf club near Toronto.
In fact, Ying Xiong has never been to the game even if he has an annual pass because the competition is usually tight.He has no special interest in golf, and playing this game is nothing more than to relieve the pressure on the golf course and enrich his life when he is bored alone in a foreign country in his spare time.
Two tall men were wearing peaked caps and polo shirts, but they were a little different from usual.Even Shao Ziqiang doesn't usually wear this kind of clothes, and he doesn't like wearing hats either.
Canada is sparsely populated, so there is no traffic jam when driving on the road.
Ying Xiong had never played golf before, but only watched it on TV.Of course he knows Tiger Woods, and he also knows that professional golfers in this sport are paid a lot.But he just doesn't have much interest in this sport. He always thinks it's too casual, and it can't be compared with the extremely confrontational sport like basketball.
Shao Ziqiang has played several times in China before, so he is considered a novice.
And Ying Xiong is a novice, but no, when he swings, he looks very powerful, but he has not hit the ball several times...
Ying Xiong smiled at Shao Ziqiang and said, "Coach, I'm not as good as you in this game!"
Shao Ziqiang shook his head and said, "I just played a few more times than you, so you and I are not on the same starting line, so we can't compare like this."
"Coach, what do you think I'm short of?" Ying Xiong swung his golf ball. This time he was lucky and hit the white golf ball straight towards the hole.
Shao Ziqiang knew what he was referring to. The two had known each other for many years, and they no longer needed to beat around the bush. They could go straight to the point and cut to the chase.
"If you look at it by your standards, there are a lot of shortages!" Shao Ziqiang said slowly.
Holding the club in his hand, Ying Xiong turned his head and looked at Shao Ziqiang: "What do you think I am lacking?" He knew that his coach had unique insights into basketball, and he knew more about himself than any coach could. Incomparable.
"What do you think you lack?" Shao Ziqiang asked back.
Ying Xiong was silent for a moment, and then replied: "Technically, I lack back body, and I lack strength!"
Shao Ziqiang nodded, looked at the blue sky, paused, and then said: "Ying Xiong, as a player, in fact, with your skills and achievements, you can already leave your own place in the history of basketball. .But you have such a talent, these achievements, I'm afraid it's not enough. I don't think you are willing to let it go like this?"
Ying Xiong nodded and didn't speak, he was waiting for his teacher to continue.
Shao Ziqiang turned his face, stared into Ying Xiong's eyes, and said seriously: "Technically, you are right, you lack back-up skills. For a player of your height and build, back-up skills are still very important." This can not only enrich your offensive skills, but also make it more difficult for the opponent to deal with on the defensive end. But in my opinion, there is another aspect that you need to improve urgently."
"What aspect?" Ying Xiong's eyes were full of puzzlement and doubt.
"What do you think of Paul Pierce's offense?" Shao Ziqiang did not directly answer Ying Xiong's question.
Ying Xiong frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and replied: "In terms of the diversity of offensive methods and offensive skills, he is undoubtedly the top 5 wing players in the league, even better than LeBron James and Kevin Durant." outstanding."
Shao Ziqiang nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's pretty good, but what do you think of his speed?"
Ying Xiong shook his head and said, "His speed is considered to be the slowest in his position. Not only his speed, but also his jumping and reaction speed are not at their peak."
"But why can he still maintain such an excellent offense? Is it only because of his skills and experience?" Shao Ziqiang said quietly.
Ying Xiong shook his head and said, "I think his outstanding strength has helped him a lot."
Shao Ziqiang said noncommittally: "To be precise, it is the core strength!"
"Core strength?" Ying Xiong was a little surprised.
"Well, as a professional player, you should be familiar with this word. But in fact, even in the NBA, there are a lot of players who train their strength, but there are not so many players who deliberately train their core strength." Shao Ziqiang Say so.
Ying Xiong agrees with Shao Ziqiang's statement.He is also strengthening his own strength, but he has never deliberately trained his core strength.
Shao Ziqiang continued: "I told you last year, take a scoring champion to see, you have done it. In terms of the richness of offensive skills, you can be regarded as one of the best in the league except for the fact that you have no great achievements in the back. ...Whether it is off the ball or with the ball, the use of false moves, rhythm control, timing selection, and anticipation of defense are not at all like a young man who is not yet 24 years old. Moreover, you seem to have that kind of instant burst Ability, this ability allows you to greatly improve your physical fitness in a short period of time. But you know, you have a limitation now, and this limitation makes it easy for you to be targeted by the opponent like the series that just ended!"
Ying Xiong's two sides burst into light instantly: "What is the limitation?"
