After a while, Lu Yu's eyes stopped crying a little.
Originally, Mark Foyou wanted Lu Yu to have a training and assessment game with other team members to assess whether Lu Yu had the ability to enter the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
Who knew that due to the appearance of Caron Butler, the training and assessment match would become a two-on-two match.
What's even more surprising is Lu Yu's strength.
Caron Butler stared at Lu Yu with wide eyes for a long time before showing a regretful expression: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have picked you. It would be great to just take you back to Connecticut. Now it's cheaper for Gonzaga."
This time it was Lu Yu's turn to smile sheepishly: "Thank you this time anyway."
Butler waved his hand helplessly and said: "Even without me, it would be a matter of time before you join Gonzaga based on your ability. Shetter, if I had known how good you were just now, I really wouldn't have chosen you. Even though I won,
But there is no joy of victory at all.”
Casey Green put his arm around Lu Yu's shoulders: "Hey, man, welcome to Gonzaga. Caron, you, an outsider, can leave now."
Casey was thick-skinned and began to drive people away unceremoniously, fearing that Caron Butler would really poach Lu Yu away.
He is a senior this year. As long as he can help the team win and win an NCAA championship, he doesn't care how others scold him.
Butler's face trembled with anger. He ignored Casey and said to Lu Yu: "Lu, with you, Gonzaga can go further. I'm waiting for you in the NCAA. I hope
We can meet in March Madness, and then I want to really compete with you on the court to see who is stronger."
A smile appeared on Lu Yu's lips: "Don't worry, I also want to taste what it's like to be your opponent."
"Then it's settled, we'll see you in the fucking NCAA tournament."
"Okay, see you in the championship."
Butler got the answer he wanted and walked out of the Manhattan Arena without looking back.
Looking at the white clouds in the sky outside the arena, Caron Butler took a long breath. After seeing Lu Yu's defensive strength and the speed with which he broke through Dan Dickau, he had to admit that what Lu Yu did was
It put a lot of pressure on him.
After Butler left the arena.
Mark Four clapped his hands and called all the players over: "Let me introduce, this is Lu Yu. Starting today, he officially joins our Gonzaga Bulldogs."
"Hey, I'm Captain Casey Greene."
"I'm Dan Dickow."
"Blake Stepp."
"Zach Goode."
…
Everyone came over to say hello to Lu Yu and introduce themselves. About ten people were introduced in a chaotic manner, and Lu Yu really didn't remember a few of them.
Mark Foyou smiled. It seemed that Lu Yu's strength had been recognized by everyone.
The purpose of coming here today has been achieved, and there is no need to be watched by everyone here, so Mark Foyo announced that the team players will return to school immediately.
Wait until everyone has left.
Mark Foyou came over, patted Lu Yu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You don't think I'm breaking the appointment, do you? Can you understand my intention of letting the team come to the Manhattan Arena?"
Lu Yu nodded.
Mark Foyo knew that Lu Yu was a smart kid, so he said directly: "I just watched your game, and you played very well, but according to the level of you and Butler, you wouldn't have played so anxiously.
It's because...you have a fatal flaw."
Lu Yu was stunned: "What is it?"
He was also confused. Although he and Butler were both better than Dan Dickau and Casey Green, the game did not show a one-sided trend.
In order to learn basketball, he put in a lot of effort during this year, using various technical movements, practical applications, and physical exercises. Every bit of it is unimaginable to ordinary people.
So when he knew that he had a fatal flaw, he immediately asked about it.
"Techniques and tactics! Your physical fitness is very good, your shooting is accurate, and your speed is fast enough. It stands to reason that you will be an excellent basketball player, but you have never been exposed to systematic training." Mark Foyo had no idea.
Worried about his face, he said bluntly: "Basketball is a sport for five people. A game may require more than a dozen or even dozens of tactics. Can you remember these? Space control on the court, fast breaks
You have never been exposed to these positioning choices. In the game just now, you were able to get into a good position several times, but in the end you wasted the opportunity because of the wrong choice. Today you can be lucky enough to win two versus two.
Three versus three, but are you sure you can win a five versus five game in the future?"
Lu Yu frowned slightly.
Thinking about it for a long time.
He slowly shook his head.
He knows that five-on-five full-court basketball and half-court basketball are two completely different sports. He has also played five-on-five, but has never received systematic training.
Mark Foyou smiled: "So, the first lesson for you when you join the team, and also the top priority of your training during this period of time, is to provide you with basic system training lessons."
Lu Yu clenched his fists: "Okay!"
He understands better than anyone else that the primary system training class mentioned by Mark Four is exactly the missing part of his own training system...
…
The rainy water spurted out from the shower head. Lu Yu stood under the shower head, closed his eyes and felt the rhythm of the water.
In his mind, he kept recalling the feeling at the moment when the toughness was 10% activated, and then compared it with his usual burst of water breathing. He could probably calculate that the burst of water breathing could increase the toughness by about 5%.
"The Thunder Breath Explosion used today should have increased its explosive power by about 5%."
"The breath of water increases toughness, the breath of thunder increases explosive power, and what about the breath of fire..."
Lu Yu's thoughts were swirling. Although he had pondered the effects of the three breathing techniques before, he had never used them in actual combat with an expert. This time he had a deeper understanding.
"Toughness is about defense. Whether you can withstand a collision with your opponent without losing position, and whether you can tirelessly stick to your opponent, this is toughness."
Lu Yu reviewed the final steal of Dan Dickau's ball and came to this conclusion.
"Explosive power is related to speed and jumping. Whether it is breakthrough speed, running speed across the field, jumping height, or jumping speed, they are all closely related to it."
Thinking of this, Lu Yu secretly made a decision.
In the future, we need to work more on the Thunder Breathing Technique. After all, in an NBA-level competition, every bit of explosive power will become a factor that affects the success rate of breakthroughs.
The first thing he obtained was the Water Breathing Technique, so the progress bar of the Water Breathing Technique has reached 50%.
Next are the Breathing of Fire and the Breathing of Thunder.
"The Breathing Technique of Flame... I remember that after the last outbreak, the strength increased..."
However, one time Lu Yu accidentally discovered that the breathing method of inflammation was also helpful in keeping the hand warm, so increasing strength became a secondary function.
This may be the reason why the opponents he encountered before were not strong.
At least he doesn't look as strong as delinquent Caron Butler.
"Forget it, forget it, playing basketball is not a fight, but I still need to practice more, after all, it is related to my shooting percentage."
Lu Yu was still confused as to why the Fire Breathing Technique and the Thunder Breathing Technique, which were obtained at the same time, were now at 13% progress and 7% progress respectively.
That day in the rain, it seemed that the water breathing method progressed much faster...
Over the past year, he has often practiced under the scorching sun. Is this the reason why the Breathing Technique of Flame has progressed faster than the Breathing Technique of Thunder?
"Hey, you can't let me practice by touching the wires."
"I don't know what the other breathing methods are related to..."
Lu Yu was thinking wildly.
I thought about the breathing method for a while, and then thought about what Mark Four said today, and I couldn't help but look forward to officially entering the school team on Monday.
