On July 19, the training camp organized by Sun Yi officially opened.
This group of participating players includes eight players including Curry, Evans, Clay, Leonard, Cousins, Butler, Bledsoe, and Whiteside, and new players will arrive later.
After all the players arrived, Sun Yi introduced each other as the intermediary, and the players gradually became familiar with each other.
After a hearty lunch, the summer training officially began.
Curry and others must first use fitness equipment for recovery training before conducting personal training.
Sun Yi's abnormal physical fitness did not require him to go through this stage and he started special training directly.
This summer he developed special training for himself in two aspects.
The first aspect is to improve his three-point shooting ability and become his regular scoring method.
The second aspect is to enhance the ability to play in the high post and enrich one's own offensive methods.
If all the special training can be completed this offseason, Sun Yi's shooting range will be all-round and blind, becoming a veritable terrifying scoring machine.
Under the guidance of trainer Procopio, Sun Yi quickly completed the warm-up activities and then began special training.
At the same time, newcomers such as Kelai and Butler were very curious about Sun Yi's training and formed teams to watch.
Curry and other old people were not surprised. They did not join in the fun. They did not want to have their self-confidence damaged by Sun Yi again, so they carried out restorative training on their own.
When Butler and others saw Sun Yi sweating profusely on the court, they sincerely admired him.
If you want to be the number one player in the league, talent is not enough, you also need hard work.
After watching for a while, they discovered that after every hour of training, Sun Yi would rest for half an hour, and then continue training like crazy.
"The amount of training is really heavy, won't Sun feel tired?"
"This may be the difference between him and us. After all, there is only one number one player in the league."
Kelai and others marveled at Sun Yi's training volume and exchanged a few words in a low voice.
After watching for a while, Kelai and others satisfied their curiosity and returned to the gym for restorative training.
But they wanted to know where Sun Yi's limit was, so in the next few hours, they took turns to keep an eye on him.
"Is that correct? The training isn't over yet?"
Butler came to follow him after finishing today's training and found that Sun Yi's training was not over yet.
"Will I be able to persist in this kind of high-intensity training?"
In terms of training, Butler believes that he works harder than anyone else. He feels that if Sun Yi can complete it, he can also complete it, and plans to try it tomorrow.
If veterans like Curry knew Butler's dangerous thoughts, they would definitely dissuade him in time.
They were young and frivolous and tried boldly, but only after being severely beaten did they realize the cruelty of reality.
A rebellious young man like Butler will also give up only when he hits the wall.
The next day, Butler got Sun Yi's daily training schedule and started practicing according to the above training items.
After a few hours of high-intensity training, Butler's body couldn't stand it anymore and he vomited directly.
Clay and others originally wanted to try it, but when they saw Butler's negative teaching material, they gave up their thoughts instantly.
At the same time, they no longer go to watch Sun Yi train and focus on recovery training.
In the next few days, the training camp ran in an orderly manner, with Sun Yi and others conducting their own special training.
After a few days of getting along, the players became familiar with each other and began to have friendly discussions and exchanges with each other.
Curry couldn't wait to find Clay to compete with three points, and wanted to know how many tricks this rookie had.
Faced with the challenge from the team's veteran, Thompson had to respond.
Sun Yi and others made a fuss, came to the sidelines to watch, and set up a bet at the same time.
"I will be the banker. If Stephen wins, he will pay 1.5 if he presses 1. Kelai wins, and he will pay 2 if he presses 1. Everyone buys and leaves." Sun Yi waved his hand and became the banker.
"I believe in Senior Stephen's ability, but Clay is also very good. I beat Clay by $100."
Bledsoe has been training with Thompson in the past few days. Knowing Clay's specific strength, he dared to make a bold bet.
"I'll beat Stephen!" Whiteside took out 100 US dollars and handed it to Sun Yi.
Seeing that the competition was about to begin, others also made their choices.
In addition to Bledsoe, Cousins also came to win, hoping to make a big difference with a small gain.
The winners over Curry were Whiteside, Evans and Leonard.
Butler, a poor guy, didn't have the money to participate, so he didn't join in the fun.
On the court, Curry and Clay discussed the game method and planned to use the All-Star Three-Point Shootout Contest format.
After everything was ready, Curry took the lead and felt good, scoring 20 points.
Kelai, who played later, may have felt a little pressure and performed poorly, scoring only 15 points.
At this point, the result of this competition is clear at a glance, Curry won a big victory.
Whiteside and others happily accepted the $50 and felt very happy.
Bledsoe and Cousins, who had missed the match, were dejected and said they would win it back next time.
Sun Yi, the banker, made a small profit and won 50 US dollars.
On the court, Kelai said that he did not perform well today and agreed to compete again next time.
Curry did not refuse and nodded directly in agreement. He is a man who wants to become the god of projection and will not be afraid of any challenge.
After that, there would be a gambling game like this at the end of every day's training, which added a little fun to Sun Yi's boring training.
…
…
After a week, everyone in the training camp has entered the state and trained hard to improve their own strength.
Leonard knows that he can't just train without doing actual exercises. If he wants to make rapid progress, he must practice it himself.
Therefore, after training every day, Leonard would go to Sun Yi for a duel to find his own shortcomings.
The result was without exception. This guy was taught a terrible lesson, but he still learned something.
Butler saw Leonard's rapid progress in the past few days and felt really envious. He did not wait any longer and directly challenged Sun Yi.
He doesn't think it's interesting to fight other people in a one-on-one fight. If you want to fight, just fight with the strongest one!
"Jimmy, this is the defense you are proud of, but you are still vulnerable in front of me. You have to think with your head, not just use your body..."
"You have to carefully observe every move I make, identify false moves, and plan the next move in advance..."
"Your shooting is too bad. If I don't put defensive pressure on you, you can't make a single shot. You have to practice shooting or defense this summer, otherwise you won't have a lot of playing time next season and will have to be delegated to
Go play in the Development League..."
Although it was a one-sided crushing, Sun Yi still patiently found out Butler's shortcomings and gave some pertinent suggestions.
Butler knew that Sun Yi was giving him instructions, so he was not angry. Instead, he kept nodding and listened carefully to Sun Yi's every word.
In this way, in addition to completing daily special training tasks, Sun Yi would also abuse food to cultivate his sentiments every day, and his life was extremely fulfilling.
…
As time flies by, the end of September has arrived in a blink of an eye.
During this period, the friendship value between Sun Yi and Ke Lai naturally reached 70 points, and a bond badge was drawn.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the bond badge - catcher and shooter (gold)."
【Catch and Shooter】
Level: Gold
Effect: The moment the host receives a pass from a teammate, the shooting speed is slightly increased, the shooting percentage is increased by 20%, and there is a 10% chance of ignoring the defense.
After getting the bond badge with Kelai, Sun Yi started to increase Butler's friendship points.
Originally, Sun Yi thought that after spending the past two months together, he and Butler were both teachers and friends, and their friendship values should not be much different.
But when he opened the system panel to check, he discovered that the friendship value with Butler had only reached 55 points, and there was a long way to go before he could obtain the bond badge.
During this period, after the UAE finished playing in the Asian Championships, they immediately rushed back to Auckland to participate in the training camp.
With UAE and Dayao in charge, the Chinese team won the Asian Championships and a ticket to the London Olympics.
At the same time, the NBA's labor negotiations broke down again, and David Stern announced that the preseason for the new season was cancelled.
