The intensity of this kind of training is astonishing.

When other NBA players heard about Kobe's training methods, they thought it was incredible.

Even in the offseason, Kobe maintained basic training of running for two hours a day, snatching for an hour and a half, and shooting 2,000 jump shots a day.

Therefore, Kobe's success is no accident. His hard work alone is daunting enough.

"Qiangzi, why are you so cruel to yourself? Don't tire your body out!"

Daben admired and worried Zhao Qiang at the same time.

He felt that his training intensity was strong enough, but Zhao Qiang's intensity was even greater!

Of course Zhao Qiang couldn't tell him that he had systematic help and that he would strike while the iron was hot without getting exhausted.

"Men! You have to be cruel to yourself. If you are not cruel to yourself, you will not be able to be cruel when others are cruel to you in the future!"

Daben scratched his head as if listening to a tongue twister and pondered for more than ten seconds before he understood.

"Have you fallen in love with philosophy? Why are you always talking in a roundabout way lately?"

"Haha, it's because your brain is slow. From now on, don't just train your muscles, you have to train your brain!"

"Okay, how dare you despise me!"

After the two had a rough time, they began to train seriously.

Zhao Qiang mainly practices catching and shooting jump shots.

This action looks simple, but in fact, it is very difficult to achieve silky smoothness.

First of all, during the game, there are people closely guarding the shooter.

Let alone catching the ball, when running without the ball, the body will be knocked around.

After the muscle collision, after receiving the ball, there must be a take-off action.

After all, basketball is a height game. If you don't jump high enough, you're just waiting to be slapped.

The height is enough, but the speed is not enough.

The higher the level of competition, the shorter the time for you to adjust.

Curry is able to achieve such high achievements with his height of 1.9 meters in an NBA full of people because of his extremely fast shooting speed.

However, his speed can't be achieved just by practicing hard, part of it is due to talent.

Zhao Qiang currently does not have Curry's shooting talent, but with the help of the system and hard training, he is getting closer to the top shooter little by little.

Strictly speaking, the shooting practiced by Zhao Qiang is different from Curry's shooting.

Curry is a typical one-stage shot, that is, he pushes the ball out before jumping, or he shoots at the same time as he jumps.

The advantage of this is that it is difficult to predict the timing of the attack, and it is unpredictable.

There are also disadvantages, that is, it is not high enough and may be blocked.

The catch-and-shoot shot that Zhao Qiang practices is a two-stage exercise. He jumps up and then takes the shot.

Jordan, Kobe, and most other stars shoot this way.

It’s difficult to practice and requires a lot of physical fitness, but it’s definitely useful!

…

Ben is now mainly practicing center skills, focusing on defense.

For example, blocking positions, grabbing rebounds, predicting blocks in advance, etc.

"Ben, do you think I can enter the NBA?" Zhao Qiang chatted with Ben during the training break.

"To be honest, Hadron is a bit confusing."

Da Ben and Zhao Qiang are good brothers and don't play tricks.

Zhao Qiang nodded: "It's definitely not possible at the moment. I know it in my heart, but I believe that we will be able to make a leap in half a year. Do you believe it?"

Da Ben smiled honestly. This time he did not hit Zhao Qiang. He nodded vigorously and said: "I believe it! Your progress is indeed rapid. You can see it from these two games!"

"It would be great if we enter the NBA and be on the same team in the future..." Zhao Qiang began to look forward to the future.

Big Ben grinned and said: "Okay then, you shoot and I will rebound for you!"

Zhao Qiang shook his head: "Not enough!"

"Not enough? What do you mean?" Daben asked in confusion.

"We should use more tactics, otherwise your big body will be wasted!" Zhao Qiang said, patting Big Ben's muscle bumps vigorously.

"What tactic?"

"Pick and roll!"

Big Ben curled his lips disdainfully: "What advanced tactics do I think it is? Isn't it the pick-and-roll? We usually play a lot!"

Zhao Qiang smiled: "The pick-and-roll is the most basic tactic in basketball, and it can evolve into many variations. In the past, our cooperation was at most a screen, not a tactic."

"Oh? Is it necessary to play it so complicated?" Daben scratched his head and stared into Zhao Qiang's eyes.

"Of course, do you think the NBA only depends on being able to run and jump?"

Daben looked at Zhao Qiang and felt that he had changed a lot during this period.

In the past, Zhao Qiang was also very loyal, but he didn't seem to be so smart.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, how do you want to practice?"

"Come!"

Zhao Qiang stood up, picked up the basketball, and walked to the three-point line.

Daben also came over.

"When I face a defender and you come over to cover and block him, I can dribble and split, so there are three changes - I can shoot, I can break through, I can also pass, right?"

Daben's brain began to work crazily, digesting the tactical details Zhao Qiang said.

"Um...yes, that's right."

Zhao Qiang continued: "The center who originally defended you can also change in many ways. He can stay in the penalty area and not come out to change defense, or he can come out to delay and defend me..."

Zhao Qiang patiently explained the pick-and-roll tactics to Ben, and the two of them practiced each move.

For the Cavalry's previous level, they didn't use much pick-and-roll tactics, which were just the most basic tactics.

But starting from today, the cavalry's tactical literacy has quietly changed.

While the two were training seriously, coach Anzuo walked in.

Because Zhao Qiang and Da Ben practiced too seriously, they didn't notice that the coach had arrived.

Coach Anzuo did not disturb the two of them. He watched from a distance, very surprised.

As a senior coach, he has a thorough understanding of tactics.

The top NCAA college teams' games are no worse than the NBA in terms of tactics, but the players' abilities are different.

The reason why Coach Anzo didn't teach the Cavalry players so many complicated tactics is because it's not necessary!

Players are not capable enough or talented enough, so they can only play some relatively simple and practical tactics to maximize the players' abilities.

For example, Jackson's triangle offense, Popovich's team basketball, and Adelman's Princeton system all need stars to support them.

Without Jordan and OK combination, Jackson's triangle offense wouldn't work.

Without Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili, team basketball would not be able to make the playoffs.

Without Divac, Bibby, Webber, Peja, and Christie, the Kings' five, Princeton wouldn't be able to produce any outstanding results.

Therefore, when coach Anzuo saw Zhao Qiang and Da Ben practicing pick-and-roll tactics today, it seemed as if he saw the hope of the team.

A few minutes later, Zhao Qiang noticed that coach Anzuo had arrived.
Chapter completed!
