Few NBA stars will immediately enter training camp in May. Most will take a good rest at this time, build up body weight, and then find their condition through training camp and pre-season weight loss before the start of the season.
Most of the players who can come for individual training in the offseason are positive and ambitious stars.
Arenas, Baron Davis, and Michael Reed all hope to go one step further. Their current strength is on the edge of the All-Stars, and they are the core of a weak team. Taking a step further, they can become highly popular stars, and then superstars and superstars who dominate victory.
They come to the training camp to do targeted exercises and strengthen them based on the content of last season's games. They mainly take the approach of combining talent and technology.
Arenas are designed to enhance upper body strength and explosive power.
Baron Davis does a lot of balance training to improve coordination and agility.
Michael Reed trained his speed and agility.
These three are all physically strong players, especially Arenas and Davis.
Grover would talk about this with Su Xi at night. He said: "Arenas has top-level explosive power, top speed, and extremely exaggerated upper body strength. He now needs to improve his ability to force shots. If this trend continues, He's going to be one of the most difficult scorers in the league to defend."
"Michael Reid is strengthening his ability off the ball. He is the league's top shooter. He wants to make his running trajectory more unpredictable, so he needs better coordination and agility."
"Baron Davis suffered a knee injury in college, so I suggested that he lose some weight. He is a very powerful player himself, and his jumping is also amazing. I think if he stays healthy, he has a chance to make the league. Top five point guard.”
Grover talks to Susie about the physical and technical aspects, of which he is a master.
But he did not recommend that Su Xi take action immediately because he felt that Su Xi's physical talents were far from being developed and he focused on defense in the first two seasons.
Grover indeed regarded Su Xi as the most important 'work' in his career.
The sense of accomplishment he gained from Su Xi far exceeded that from any other star.
He thought more than once, if I train Jack to become a new generation of Jordan, will I become the greatest trainer of all time?
After all, Jordan was Jordan from the beginning.
But Jack came up step by step.
Su Xi has been training for four or five days in a row, and he gradually became familiar with Arenas and Michael Reed.
Baron Davis came to train for a short time and left after practicing for two hours every day. Arenas is a gym rat and often practices until six or seven o'clock in the evening, as does Michael Reed.
Arenas often gives pointers to Suhi's shooting, and he has many unique skills in shooting. He originally thought Su Xi might not be able to learn. He demonstrated it several times, and Su Xi got it right.
Why?
Because Su Xi's explosive power and strength are also very strong, he has the foundation for forced shots. Even his height and wingspan are better than Arenas.
However, Su Xi's current jumping and speed are far inferior to Arenas.
However, having this explosiveness and strength is enough in training. Even though the training trainers were holding thick mats, they were easily knocked away by Su Xi. He forced a jump shot... Whoops! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
Su Xi's shooting talent is not outstanding. In Arenas' words: above average, similar to mine, and can be practiced.
Arenas' shooting is acquired through practice. Although this person is arrogant and domineering, he really works hard.
In contrast, Michael Reid has shooting talent. He is a left-handed shooter. Although his posture is a bit strange, his shot is very accurate.
Su Xi also learned from him how to catch and shoot without the ball. With the help of the trainer, he got started quickly... It is worth mentioning that Su Xi was left-handed before he was 13 years old, because when he was 13 years old, he fell His broken left hand was in a plaster cast, which made life inconvenient, so he slowly adjusted and turned his right hand into his dominant hand.
"Jack, I think you haven't found your position yet. You are training with me on explosiveness, strength, and forced take-off shots. You are also training with Michael on speed, agility, and open left-handed shots. Are you going to do it next? Want Baron Davis to practice his puppy-licking throws?"
Arenas teased Su Xi: "Don't bite off more than you can chew. It's the same as finding a girlfriend. You can find 3 girlfriends in a row and choose the one that suits you best. But don't find 3 at the same time. The three of us rely on Your own unique skills have reached the NBA elite level. Do you want to absorb the talents and skills of the three of us at the same time and become a superstar?"
Su Xi smiled and thought: It's not impossible.
"Let's have a duel?" Arenas finally said what Su Xi wanted to say most.
"Can!"
Su Xi jumped for joy.
"You can only dribble the ball three times." Arenas passed the basketball to Su Xi and he announced the rules.
Su Xi passed the basketball to Arenas: "I don't like attacking, I just defend."
Arenas smiled lightly and said: "This guy who doesn't like to talk is more arrogant than me."
Then he suppressed the rhythm, and then swung it violently. While his shoulders sank, he smacked the ball hard, and his body suddenly jumped out... Then he stopped suddenly and took a quick shot... Whoa!
The basketball drew a beautiful parabola and hit the ball.
Su Xi was stunned, because Arenas just made this move, the super explosive power in Su Xi's body was surging, the super power was also showing signs of activity, and the super speed was directly increased from 80 to 81.
So strong? Is this just the talent of a fringe NBA All-Star?
Arenas' upper body strength is definitely 94, because it can activate the power in Su Xi's body, which means that it is at least higher than Su Xi.
The explosive power is definitely above 95, maybe even 97 or 98. This is the fastest instant start Su Xi has ever seen.
There is also speed, the speed is also extremely fierce, it must reach the super realm, above 95. .
And his jumping talent is definitely top-notch, close to super.
No wonder he's so crazy.
In fact, Arenas was also surprised. He just wanted to catch Su Xi off guard, but he found that Su Xi's strength was not weaker than his, and her control over his lower body was even more deep-rooted. If it weren't for the strength of his upper body to squeeze out the passage, he might not have been able to open the situation... This The guy's follow-up speed is very fast and his explosive power is very strong. If his jumping and speed were better, with his height and wingspan, he might really have some restrictions on me.
There are actually people outside saying that he has no talent and is a wasted reputation?
Arenas feels that public opinion is too unreliable.
"Come again."
Su Xi passed the basketball to Arenas.
This time, he continued to follow up to Arenas, and he did not give Arenas a chance to make a surprise attack.
However, Arenas's fake moves are very realistic, worthy of NBA star level.
I saw him thrust forward, then quickly changed direction and dribbled. He took a step inward. Su Xi followed up in time, only falling behind a little bit. But then, Arenas turned around and took a super backward shot... Su Xi pounced It goes up to interfere, but the difference is a bit much.
Uh-huh!
Hit again.
"Not bad, Jack, you almost guarded me." Arenas habitually talks trash.
Su Xi was not angry. His face was full of excitement, as if he had won the lottery: "Yes, you are super powerful."
He passed the basketball to Arenas.
Arenas' face froze, then he raised his chin slightly and the smile at the corner of his mouth melted away. He didn't want to fight at first, but under Su Xi's heartfelt praise, he gradually lost himself.
He was supposed to leave at 6:30, but he insisted on staying until 7:30.
"No fight, no fight! You are a monster. You can recover as before after twenty minutes of rest. Moreover, I feel that you are getting stronger and stronger. Have you sucked my talent?" Arenas complained.
He is a strong physical monster, but he is also a little tired now. Su Xi next to him has almost recovered, and while praising him, he asked to play for another 30 minutes.
Arenas said nothing.
"Let's hit 10 more goals. There is a saying in China that describes the biggest regret, which is: Entering the treasure mountain and returning empty-handed. A strong scorer like you is a treasure to me. If I can't practice with you for a while, I You’ll have trouble sleeping when you go home,” Su Xi said to Arenas.
Although Arenas muttered that he wanted to go home, when he heard Su Xi's praise, he raised his chin again, as if a cat was petted by a soul catcher. "Okay, last 10 balls."
So I started practicing again.
They hit 20 goals.
Playing until 8 o'clock, Arenas really lost his energy.
He said: "Having three girlfriends at the same time is not so tiring."
"Why are you so strong? Can you come 10 times a night?"
"How about you come to Golden State to assist me in the new season? I will make you the second boss."
Arenas kept talking all the way.
Su Xi was extremely happy at this time, because his explosive power was +1, reaching 93. Speed +4, reaching 84, has reached the peak of excellence, touching the edge of the top.
Arenas is better. Although LeBron is extremely talented, he runs around every day. He only challenged me once after practicing for a month, and he only played for 30 minutes.
"I'll treat you to dinner." Su Xi suddenly said to Arenas.
Arenas was unexpected. He looked at Su Xi: "I always treat people to dinner, and you want to treat me to dinner?"
"Yes, I will cook it for you." Su Xi said, "You will be the first NBA star to eat the food I cook."
As soon as Arenas heard 'No. 1', he immediately became interested. He said: "Okay, Jack. But don't do those messy things, such as chicken feet, devil's eggs, pig lungs... and the like. of."
Su Xi smiled.
He got into Arenas' Mercedes SUV and headed to where he lived.
Meanwhile, Marcus Banks found Baron Davis with the help of his co-agent.
He has a big plan.
