133: That year, the days when I was a shooter in the national team(1/3)
In Li Ang's imagination, there should be a reasonably comfortable car to pick him up.
Sitting in the driving seat is Xiao Zhang, who has at least three years of driving experience.
The co-pilot must be Xiao Wei, who is 2.06 meters tall and weighs over 200 pounds. He wears a red suit and carries a steel pipe.
Sitting next to him in the back is a little king. If nothing else, this little king must be at least over 90 kilograms and 1.7 meters tall.
Oh, and also, the skin must be white.
In reality, Li Ang is sitting in a minivan. Lao Zhang, who has been driving for 10 years, is in the driver's seat. However, Li Ang doesn't know the names of the people in the passenger seat and the back seat. He usually calls them with two words -
lead.
"Xiao Li, this time you return to China to play, remember to pay attention to unity. After all, it is your first time to join the national team, and there are only a few places for the Olympics.
Once you go in, someone is bound to come out. Well, some people are bound to feel unconvinced. This is normal.
We hope that you can speak with your strength and make a name for yourself in the training camp, so that everyone will be convinced."
Next to Li Ang, a leader whose surname was unknown began to do ideological work for Li Ang.
Li Ang nodded, this situation was a bit beyond his expectation.
Make a name for yourself...
No one told me that participating in the men's basketball training camp would have to involve each other in military-style boxing.
If I had known earlier, I would have been better prepared.
Little Bun was driving on the streets of the Magic City. Speaking of which, this was Li Ang's first time here, having lived in two lifetimes.
I have walked around Chou Country, but I found that I have not finished walking around my home.
Guilty guilt.
After arriving at the training camp, Li Ang carried his bag and followed the leader towards the training hall.
The training camp was filled with banners with a strong socialist style.
"Be an Olympic athlete and bring glory to the motherland!"
"The world is attracting attention, thousands of people are looking forward to it, but time does not wait for me!"
"Beyond yourself, never give up, never give up, never slack off!"
Li Ang instantly felt like he was back when he was a student and participating in a school sports meeting.
It's just that the sports meeting I participated in this time was probably a little big.
After passing through the cafeteria and dormitory area, Li Ang followed into the training hall.
At this time, the only sound that could be heard in the training hall was the harsh sound of basketball shoes rubbing against the floor.
On the court, the players are running circles around the basketball court to warm up.
After noticing that Li Ang had walked in, everyone turned their heads and stared at him curiously.
Although everyone is a professional player, to everyone in the training camp, Li Ang is a character they have only seen on TV.
The Monkey King who dunked Mourning and Ewing, and escaped from the sky in the slam dunk contest, was now standing in front of them, alive!
Do you think they can't be curious?
Jiang Xingquan, a leading figure in Chinese basketball and the head coach of the national team, walked up to Li Ang.
This is the one who told the players during the 1994 World Championships, "If you make a success, it's yours, if you lose, it's mine."
He looked at Li Ang and smiled: "Welcome to the national team training camp!"
Then, he reached out and pinched Li Ang's arm.
Thick, slender, enjoyable and exciting!
Li Ang nodded: "I will definitely work hard."
The handover ceremony was over, and Jiang Xingquan also led Li Ang into the team.
Li Ang looked at the lineup of this national team and had to say that it was really strong.
In most people's minds, the men's basketball team at home in 2008 was the strongest national team in history.
But in fact, the 2000 men's basketball team definitely deserves the title of the strongest in history.
This Chinese team has 94,96 golden-generation perimeter players, as well as China Mobile Great Wall, which can compete with the world's top teams.
Talented people from two generations have gathered together, which is the most harmonious gathering of people ever.
Judging from the lineup on paper, it really doesn’t lose to the 2008 class.
But why is this men's basketball team in 2000 less famous? Because in the original Sydney Olympics, this men's basketball team only finished tenth and did not qualify for the group stage.
Then someone will ask, if you haven’t even qualified in the group, you still have the nerve to say that you are the strongest men’s basketball team?
In fact, in 2000 and 2008, the men's basketball team had 2 wins and 3 losses in the group stage, and it also performed well against the world's top teams in 2000.
The most direct reason for not qualifying is that in the game against France, the Chinese team suppressed the whole game and was leading by more than ten points. When everyone thought that the game had entered garbage time, it was actually beaten by the opponent at the last moment.
The three-pointer made a comeback!
It can be called one of the most regrettable games in the history of Chinese basketball.
It is worth mentioning that the French team was the runner-up in that Olympic Games!
In this way, the first generation of the strongest national team ended up only in 10th place.
If that game was not reversed by France and the Chinese team qualified from the group, they might actually be able to achieve some results in the knockout rounds.
People say that there is no such thing as "what if" in competitive sports. But now, isn't Li Ang coming here with what if?
The national team in 2000 was very strong in terms of offense and interior defense, but the only difference was in exterior defense.
This team's outside line basically kills 1,000 enemies and loses 800 to itself.
Even though there is the Chinese Jordan wearing a "Japanese" jersey, my Dong brother's defense has never been his strong point.
After all, I am highly myopic, and when I look at people, I have a shadow of myself. Please understand.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the Basketball Association lowered its face and invited Li Ang.
Li Ang's arrival can just make up for this team's biggest shortcoming.
After all, he is the first of the top five shooting guards in the NBA. He can't handle perimeter defense well!
Don't ask what level Brother Li's outside defense is, just ask Danzi if he's afraid.
"Hello everyone, my name is Li Ang, I am very happy to join the team. Hehe, add one more, I am not very good at playing."
Looking at the strongest men's basketball team of this first generation, Li Ang smiled and said hello.
Everyone also said "Hello" implicitly. Chinese players are still relatively reserved.
If this were in the NBA, it is estimated that Big Brother would immediately stand up and hug Li Ang: "Crab Burou, in order to welcome you tonight, we will arrange a fruit plate. Do you prefer white fruits or black fruits?"
After Jiang Xingquan sent Li Ang a training vest with the word "China" printed on the chest, he asked Li Ang to start training.
Although Li Ang plays the fourth position most of the time in the NBA, Jiang Xingquan believes that Li Ang is fully capable of playing the three position.
It's just this projection that makes people's heads hurt.
Although Li Ang showed some mid-range shooting ability in the playoffs, his shooting range is still not far enough.
Mr. Jiang then arranged for Li Ang to conduct a surprise three-point shooting training. Suddenly, a moving drumbeat came from the basketball court.
Wang Zhizhi looked at Li Ang shooting in the other half, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
No...can you be the Rookie of the Year in the NBA?
Li Ang was sweating profusely, not because he was tired, but because he was worried.
He was afraid that the domestic basketball hoops would be of poor quality and would be smashed by him.
O'Neal was smashing the backboard, and Li Ang was rushing to smash the backboard.
When Mr. Jiang first asked Li Ang to train three-pointers, Li Ang was still very confident.
After all, the FIBA three-point line in the NBA is only two points long at best.
And Li Ang's current mid-range shooting ability value is 75, so he should have a good hit rate no matter what.
But after getting started, Li Ang found that he was simply thinking too much.
Li Ang knew before that the various attributes of this system are interrelated. For example, 80 speed and 80 finishing at the basket, and 70 speed and 80 finishing at the basket have different frame-rushing abilities.
Therefore, shooting actually has a related effect.
Li Ang's close-range and mid-range shooting doubles 75, which ensures that he can hit the free throw line and within the range of the free throw line, and his shooting accuracy can be guaranteed.
But the range beyond the free throw line is not very accurate. Li Ang estimates that in order to be accurate in mid-range shots, only the mid-range shooting ability is not enough, and the long-range shooting ability must also be added.
The accuracy of shooting from positions other than the free throw line is probably determined by two attributes: long-range shooting and mid-range shooting.
And Li Ang's current long-range shooting ability is an astonishing 50.
Therefore, the two-point field goal percentage is very impressive.
