Underestimating the enemy, or facing the Wildcats underestimating the enemy, White Mamba suddenly felt disillusioned.
This is something he has never thought about since he entered the school team.
But it seems to have really happened now!
Breaking away from that overconfident mentality, White Mamba broke into a cold sweat.
It is true that being confident, positive and enthusiastic are good things.
But with their inflated mentality now, playing against the Wildcats...
Something is going to happen!
Even if you can beat it, you can't beat it!
The confidence built up through seven consecutive wins will not be destroyed by this incident.
A win is a win!
And White Mamba feels that the team has indeed made great progress in the new season.
Glancing at the cheerful preparations of his teammates, his sense of responsibility emerged and he said: "Thanks to your calm analysis, I have to remind them."
After saying that, White Mamba turned on the parent mode.
Henry Bibby, who was hiding aside, let out a sigh.
Well, he admits, he seems to be a little carried away, and even the Wildcats dare not take it seriously.
The team atmosphere is from top to bottom. In the preparation meeting just now, he made an impassioned statement that he would win 8 consecutive games to end the first half of the division stage. Although the purpose was to boost the morale of the players, the actual effect was, It's quite different from what was expected.
Now the team needs someone to pour cold water on.
Yes, that’s right, it’s the White Mamba.
'Big Boss' White Mamba walks around admonishing his teammates.
Everyone was in high spirits, but when they heard the cold water he said, everyone felt annoyed, it was written directly on their faces.
But he didn't care about this. Under his preaching, which was like reciting the mother-in-law's sutra, the unhappy teammates carefully looked at the opponent's lineup and planned to refute him a few words. In the end, they calmed down a little and saw that the opponent averaged 3 per game. 15+ players, 8 former top 100 high school students in the United States...
The pressure is rolling in!
The time for independent understanding and discussion of tactics was over, and at 3:30 pm, team training began.
Every assistant coach’s requirements during training are higher than usual! The attitude of every teaching assistant is more serious than usual!
After a certain onlooker finished eavesdropping, he went back to convene a small meeting with his colleagues and woke up the teaching assistants who were also a little distracted.
After a total discussion, everyone decided not to reopen the team meeting.
Bai Mamba's garrulous talk was annoying to many people, and they also knew that it was enough for him to annoy the team members. If he did more, he would have a rebellious mentality.
They started from actual actions and used increased training intensity and strict requirements to remind the team members from the side.
The effect is quite good!
Although the Trojans players have been a little drifting recently, they are mostly a group of very capable people.
After all, there are only two people on the 18-person roster who have been among the top 100 high school students in the United States, and only Sam Clancy talks about "genius high school students" every day. Most of them have gone from being unsuccessful to the present. After calming down, He can listen to people's words and see the situation clearly.
Under the leadership of Bai Mamba, the teammates calmed down their impetuous hearts and devoted themselves to preparing for the game.
However, the increased confidence has not been hit. The first 7 consecutive victories they won through hard work are real, and they are confident of defeating their opponents.
Henry Bibby was relieved to see such changes.
If you are too confident but encounter a failure, it may not only bring you depression for ten days, but also a blow to your confidence.
Fortunately, with proper adjustments, this risk has been greatly avoided.
Even if we lose the game the day after tomorrow, the blow to our confidence will be much smaller.
Henry Bibby looked at the kid who devoted himself to training...here it comes again, that very special leadership style...
No! It's not that kid's fault.
Thanks to White Mamba, the good captain under this head coach for his leadership!
…
At around 7 p.m., Li Ao hitched a ride back to his apartment with Xavier Johnson.
Lying on the co-pilot's backrest, Li Ao felt that he would need to undergo a full set of physical therapy tonight.
Today’s training volume is too heavy!
From 3:30 to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, he has been conducting team cooperation training almost all the time. He is involved in almost every lineup. On the offensive end, he needs running shots or support opportunities, and on the defensive end, he is between positions 1-4. swing.
This is not over yet. At 5:15, a one-hour special training test was conducted, followed by additional practice on passing and mid-range shooting...
Fortunately, when he arrived at the Memorial Stadium after lunch, he shook the old man over for mid-range shooting and catching training tasks. During the 10-minute break after the test, he ran to the locker room and used the physical therapy function, so that he could be prepared at any time. After eating a few pieces of bread in his backpack, I regained my composure and practiced the next passing and shooting exercises to maintain training efficiency.
But the muscle fatigue and physical exertion are back again.
At this time, the role of the physical therapist becomes particularly important.
This favor is worth it!
After arriving downstairs in the apartment and saying goodbye to Xavier Johnson, Li Ao looked forward to what he would have for dinner tonight.
In the afternoon, the hospital assistant aunt called the middle-aged handsome man and said that she would leave dinner for him that night and let him go home to eat.
I took the elevator to the 12th floor and saw many large boxes in the corridor.
He walked around the box and came to the door of the hospital assistant's aunt's room. The door was open.
While changing his shoes, he asked: "Aunt Vivian, what are those things outside?"
A voice responded from inside the house: "Leo, are you back? Those are Christmas decorations. The landlord asked me to help collect them. Don't worry about it. Workers will decorate them tomorrow. The vegetables are kept warm in the steam oven. You can take them out yourself. Eat, I’ll call Jack to come over.”
Li Ao looked back at the tallest big box that almost reached the ceiling, guessing it was a Christmas tree that was going to be placed at the door of the apartment.
Judging from the size of these boxes, they should have been brought up by a crane. So will a crane be used to take them down tomorrow?
emmm…
Is this creating jobs without jobs?
As expected of Yingjiang, this operation belongs to the atmosphere.
After entering the house, Li Ao changed his shoes, washed his hands and face, then took out the vegetables from the steamer, baked a few slices of bread, and started eating dinner.
After Vivian finished the phone call, she ran to Li Ao and sat down next to her. While eating, she asked Li Ao about the team.
When she called before, she said she would eat first, and Li Ao believed it.
But he saw that the large steam oven was filled with vegetables, and a few extra slices of bread were put in when baking.
Sure enough, the hospital assistant aunt wanted to add extra food.
"Do we have a good chance of winning against the Wildcats?"
Vivian was looking forward to Li Ao's answer. As a die-hard fan of the school team, she couldn't be too happy recently, with 7 consecutive wins in the beginning! A new record in team history!
She has already obtained tickets for the game the day after tomorrow and is preparing to watch from the front row.
"I think we can win."
Li Ao attaches great importance to analyzing the strength of his opponents, and he pays even more attention to it when training.
But in terms of challenging mentality, the goal is to win.
Taizu's famous sayings are written in precious words.
"It's good to have confidence, but you can't be careless. You have just started playing, and you don't know how good the Wildcats are. Although you are making rapid progress, you are still a newcomer after all..."
Vivian turned on the warning mode.
If Li Ao said she had no confidence, then she would be in encouragement mode.
The chat did not delay Vivian's eating. She agreed to leave the dishes for Li Ao, but she ate significantly more.
After she was full, Vivian loosened her belt and muttered: "Am I really starting to get old? My appetite has dropped so much."
Li Ao:o(￣-￣)o
Ordinary people may not be able to support this rich woman, so she eats well and eats a lot.
No wonder I don’t have a boyfriend at this age.
Li Ao cleaned up the mess and chatted with Vivian in the living room while watching the end of the battle between the Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Wolfpack.
The Duke Blue Devils were even better, defeating the North Carolina Wolfpack 72-67 and winning the game.
Li Ao felt that these two opponents were not easy to deal with when watching the live broadcast, especially the Duke Blue Devils, who were probably better than the Wildcats and Cardinals.
If it was a life-and-death game, it is estimated that the Trojans do not have the strength to defeat the opponent now. Facing such an opponent would be too psychologically stressful.
That was completely different from a division civil war. The pressure of ending the season immediately after losing, he estimated that the confidence the Trojans had now accumulated would be difficult to withstand against the Duke Blue Devils.
After analyzing it for a while, he suddenly came to his senses and shook his head with a smile.
Crazy Three also has to divide competition areas. According to the location of the school, it is divided into four competition areas: eastern, southern, western and central and western areas, with 16 teams in each area.
If their pac10 league team enters the Crazy Three, they will either be divided into the Midwest Division or the Western Division.
Schools in North Carolina will only be divided into the Eastern Division.
Unless you reach the semi-finals, you won't be able to touch them at all.
His worries are completely unfounded.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, Jack came to serve on time. Vivian put on her pants and tied her belt at this moment, regaining her goddess image and monitoring the physical therapy process.
Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst. Her Leo looks like a pretty boy and has such a good figure. Those stinky fitness guys have complicated thoughts. What if they get together and have bad thoughts?
She has already told Liam that when Li Ao goes to away games in the future, he will send Jack to accompany him, and he must let Jack's girlfriend go with him.
But listening to Li Ao's screams that could easily be misunderstood, she called the decoration company and took advantage of the Christmas holiday to add sound insulation.
At first she thought the wall panels were rustic, but now she thinks the design is so good that she can add sound insulation after removing it and then nailing the wall panels back on immediately.
What? Even the air is sweet. America doesn't work overtime? So is Jack doing voluntary labor...
At 10 o'clock in the evening, Jack finished his work and left happily.
This makes me happy to work overtime. People who receive physical therapy can bear the pain without spending so much time. They are still talkative and are not lonely during physical therapy.
After enjoying the ultimate sourness, Li Ao said goodbye to his aunt, the hospital assistant, and returned to the small suite next door. He broke out in a sweat. He resisted not lying down immediately, wiped the sweat, and after he stopped sweating, he took a shower and blew himself. After drying my hair, I lay down on the bed.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, he turned on the system and looked at the 5350 achievement points that he had saved for a long time...
Winning all 7 games, plus statistics, plus sparring, plus special training tests... After a month, I finally saved 3,000 achievement points.
When it's time to draw the lottery, try your best to improve your strength and bring more help to the team.
He knows that he is not the one who plays a decisive role in victory or defeat. Without the three high-level capabilities of Granville, Shelby Jordan, and White Mamba, they will not have the strength to defeat the Bruins and Sun Devils. .
But that doesn't mean that others are unimportant. On the contrary, their deep 70+ level of players with comprehensive strength are the cornerstone of the three high-level combat capabilities.
He never belittles himself. He believes that he should now be regarded as a member of the cornerstone of the team.
After playing 7 games, the difference between his overall evaluation and other people's overall evaluation has been seen.
Others are calculated based on their performance on the court.
As for him, it is based on simple basic skills on offense and defense, plus technique and shooting, calculated according to hard indicators.
After all, whether you play well or not has a lot to do with your sense of autonomy on the court.
Otherwise, it makes no sense that Sam Clancy's overall rating is 69, and he is only 61.
Even if he only has mid-range shooting and support, he can do more on the offensive end than Sam Clancy, and defensively he even beats Sam Clancy.
If you use the slang term "Lu, Lu, Lu" to describe it, he is now a unique skill brother.
But if I can get more playing time and perform better, I will have unique skills.
Raffle draw!
Open the lottery interface, issue a command, and three faint white lights flash...
He looked forward to the three newly released prompts.
First.
"Congratulations to the host for getting the recipe: Fruit Pie Collection.
The host will prepare the raw materials and cook strictly according to this recipe, and will make a top-notch delicious fruit pie. "
After reading the prompts, various ways of cooking fruit pies came to Li Ao's mind. He thought about the names of the fruit pies he knew, and he could immediately 'remember' the raw materials and cooking methods needed.
"It's...convenient. It's time to enrich the dishes. Anyway, it's more useful than Chasing Dream's self-proclaimed autobiography."
After comforting himself, Li Ao looked at the remaining lottery tips.
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: 1 level 2 skill upgrade card fragment."
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: experience bracelet (white)."
"Experience bracelet (white): The host wears this bracelet and gets a 5% training result bonus when performing various basic basketball skills or technical training.
Note: The host has obtained a white-level experience bracelet, and will have a probability of winning a silver-level experience bracelet later. The higher the level of the lottery, the higher the probability of winning.
Equipment level: white, silver, gold, orange, purple. "
I, Mr. Li, am indeed the European Emperor!
Li Ao instantly broke away from comforting himself that he was a chef and became more confident!
Training results bonus, the more, the merrier!
CIC's training efficiency is now 160%, and another 5%... It's a little less, but it adds up.
And this bracelet is an all-round bonus!
Then passing the ball is 105%, and individual defense is 145%!
He also drew skill upgrade card fragments, and he already had 2 fragments.
This wave of blood profit!
The system prompts that three level 2 skill upgrade card fragments have been synthesized into a level 2 skill upgrade card.
After looking at the two level 1 skills of 'Perfect Warm-up' and 'Catch and Shoot Expert', he thought about it, made a decision and issued the command.
"The host uses the level 2 skill upgrade card. The upgrade object is: catch and shoot expert. The catch and shoot expert has been upgraded from level 1 to level 2."
"Catch and shoot expert level 2: 1. When the host catches the ball and shoots, mid-range shot +3, three-pointer +3; 2. When the host catches the ball and shoots, it is connected with basic skills such as retreat, step, and lateral movement, which will slightly reduce the impact on shooting. The stronger the influence of force, the stronger the ability to connect basic functions, the stronger the effect."
As he expected, the upgrade to level 2 added new effects. Fortunately, the new effects were exactly what he needed.
Adding a 1-point bonus to catching and shooting also makes this skill more practical at his current stage.
He was so lucky tonight. He looked like he had more than 2,000 achievement points left... One more shot!
Just one shot!
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: the Meditation Teapot.
Drinking tea from this teapot can make people calm down, and is best when learning to read. "
Li Ao said "Are you pretty" and turned off the light to go to sleep, but he didn't fall asleep for a while.
He couldn't calm down anymore!
So here’s the question, late at night, if he makes tea with a Jingxin teapot, can he calm down his irritability because he couldn’t sleep after drawing this crappy thing?
