Basketball trainer, I created a super giant

Chapter 148 One had a wild idea, the other actually dared to agree.

After the morning training session ended, Tang Sen kept Sather behind alone.

He doesn't have to compete, so he can go to bed early at night and doesn't have to rush back to catch up on sleep.

Tangsen has the ball on the right side of the basket, backs down against Sather, and then starts a back-to-the-basket dribble to cut across the middle.

Sather's thick body made it impossible for Tang Sen to push him aside in the fight.

Take a step, rotate your hips, and jump outwards with the last step, launching your attack the instant you land.

Sather jumped to block, but his step outward still gave him some space to shoot.

Tangsen raised the arc, and the basketball flew over Sather's arm, falling into the basket in a high arc.

This is myself.

If a higher Brownie were used, the arc wouldn't need to be adjusted to such a high position.

After a few more attempts, Tang Sen nodded silently, indicating that this was roughly the direction.

Moreover, Tang Sen felt that it could even be moved a little further out.

That is, when you cut across, you start to move upwards.

However, this will inevitably increase the difficulty of the final move.

After a few attempts, Tang Sen had a general idea of ​​what to do.

The technical challenge lies first in the physical contact, and then in the final step, where the jump and shot must be executed in one smooth motion, demanding greater explosive power from the legs.

And the feel of the shot.

Especially towards the outer edges, the requirements for feel become even higher.

“Jeryl, that’s enough, thank you.” Tang Sen stopped.

With a direction in mind, the next step is to develop a targeted training plan and practice gradually.

There are still three or four months until the finals, so there should be enough time.

However, having a direction means you can practice while wearing the [Charm] badge.

But Tang Sen was still somewhat dissatisfied.

In Tang Sen's view, the real ultimate skill is to combine one's own physical talents and bring a certain talent and technique to their extreme, so as to achieve a state in which only he can defend himself.

The current design of the step-back shot is more like a high-level integration and reasonable extension of Brown's existing skill set.

Or rather, he chose a corresponding countermeasure based on the opponents he might encounter in the future.

This is different from O'Neal's strong low-post play and Olajuwon's dream footwork.

O'Neal maximized his advantage of having titanium alloy knees and being heavy.

Hakeem Olajuwon, on the other hand, showcased his guard-like coordination to the fullest.

What about Brown?

In fact, the design should be tailored to his talents.

But after careful consideration, Tang Sen realized that if we discuss talent in terms of historical level, Brown's talent is not actually top-tier.

During the draft, his greatest talent was probably his agility, which was disproportionate to his physique.

Otherwise, the media wouldn't have been touting his speed as comparable to Garnett's.

Tang Sen felt that this was his greatest advantage.

Therefore, if you're designing a signature move, you could really take inspiration from Garnett or Nowitzki and work on your mid-range shooting and face-up ball-handling offense.

Can not.

Because of the current league environment, this kind of play is needed in the paint.

Most importantly, Brown also needs to compete against O'Neal.

Therefore, the only options are to gain weight and practice low-post offensive skills diligently.

To this, Tang Sen can only say that O'Neal's presence really influenced a generation of centers, forcing those centers with championship aspirations to stay in the low post.

Garnett can put up great stats, but does he have a chance to win a championship?

To overcome the Lakers, you must always consider how to deal with Shaquille O'Neal.

This responsibility fell on Brown, so Brown had no choice but to adopt this playing style.

Thinking of this, Tang Sen sighed and stopped thinking about it too deeply.

Brown is still young, so let's aim for the championship first.

Moreover, once you master this one move, it's practically unbeatable.

The next day, Tangsen singled out Brown and Ewing again.

Brown was visibly agitated.

Yesterday, McGrady told him that Townsend wanted him to practice his special move.

Skyhook, Dream Shake, Fadeaway Jumper – which of these wasn't a move I dreamed of having when I was a kid?

When Tang Sen demonstrated the special move he was going to practice, Brown's face fell a little.

“Sir, I know that trick.” Brown said dejectedly.

As he spoke, he pulled Ewing aside and gave him a quick demonstration.

Dribble to the side, jump outwards on the last step, and immediately jump and shoot as you turn.

His movements were almost identical to Tang Sen's, except that his final strike was a bit weak and missed.

The problem lies in the lack of explosive power in the legs, which affects the stability of the shot.

“Look,” Brown said, spreading his hands.

Ewing nodded in agreement; he really knew how to pull that off.

Tang Sen pointed at the basket and asked, "Did you make it?"

Without saying a word, Brown pulled Ewing along and tried it again.

Almost the same move, but this time it went in.

"Not stable enough," Tang Sen shook his head.

If it's not stable enough, then it's not a real skill.

Brown quickly said, "Sir, I know my strikes aren't steady enough yet, but I can practice. With more practice, they'll become more stable. But I don't think this is a special skill."

In Brown's view, this step-back shot is a basic move commonly used by interior players.

On the basketball court, you can find tons of them; they all know how to do it.

Ewing, standing nearby, didn't like hearing this. "That's my move! How can it not be considered a special skill? Anyway, there are many people in the league who can't defend against me."

Tang Sen said, "Many people know how to do it, but if you use it and others can't defend against it, then that's a killer move."

Many so-called "secret techniques" are actually just the same basic skills, with no difference between them.

It's just that different people use it, and the results are different.

Mastering the basics is already difficult enough, and it's enough to dominate the world of martial arts.

Seeing that Brown still had a long face, Tang Sen simply asked, "So what kind of special skill do you want?"

Tell me about it, and I'll listen.

Brown thought for a moment and said, "Combining the Skyhook and Dream Footwork, first use Dream Footwork to fool the opponent, and then use the Skyhook. It will be unstoppable, and no one can defend against it."

Upon hearing this, not only Tang Sen laughed, but Ewing next to him also laughed.

"Kid, it's not evening yet," Ewing patted Brown on the shoulder.

What are you daydreaming about?

Mastering either of these two moves would be enough to dominate the martial arts world, but you want to combine them.

Brown, however, looked serious and said, "Sir, I'm not dreaming. Anyway, I think you can do it."

Thinking back to before the draft, my skills were terrible, and I was good at nothing.

As a result, in just a few months, Tang Sen managed to train himself to master it.

“The skyhook is a hook shot, and the dream footwork is low-post footwork. They are developed through practice, sir. I’m not afraid of hard work, I’m willing to practice, so why can’t I develop them?” Brown countered.

Tang Sen subconsciously thought that everyone could train, but everyone's physical condition was different.

But Tang Sen suddenly stopped himself from speaking.

Yes, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had an outstanding height and wingspan, and his unique hook shot was unstoppable.

Ultimately, he's all about hook shots. On the basketball court, there are those hook shot monsters who can score no matter how they hook the ball.

It's all thanks to hard work and practice.

Hakeem Olajuwon has amazing coordination, but can't coordination be trained?
Ultimately, everything about the body can be trained, as long as you're willing to put in the effort.

But I have my own system. I can speed up the training process and make it more effective. Aside from not making you taller or your arms longer, what kind of coordination or wrist strength can't I develop?

Tang Sen took a deep breath.

Tang Sen suddenly realized that perhaps he had been underestimating the system's capabilities all along.

I thought the system's purpose was to allow someone who scored 60 points to score 100 points.

But in reality, I can not only help him get 100 points, but also 200 points, to break his limits.

Because Tang Sen has always had a fixed basic understanding.

That means there are limits to training.

Or rather, the human body has its limits.

Even though O'Neal has knees like titanium, his weight just doesn't allow him to break through like McGrady or Kobe, perform mid-air layups, and slam dunks.

Because his muscles, bones, and ligaments have their limits and cannot support him in completing such a movement.

The problem is, if you already have something like a system that science can't explain, what's the point of talking about science?

After Brown gained weight last year, he not only became faster but also jumped higher. Is this reasonable?

That doesn't make much sense either!
But with the help of the system, it happened.

At the same time, there is another key factor.

energy!

A person's energy is limited. If he wants to push the limits of human strength, he will inevitably lack the energy to balance speed and agility.

However, the system can speed up this process, truly achieving the best of both worlds.

Tang Sen came to his senses.

"Combining Skyhook and Dream Footwork? Not bad, that's a good idea."

It's just a hook shot and low post footwork, practice it!
He keeps calling himself a genie, but he can't even grant this small wish. How can he be a genie?

And McGrady.

All I want is a secret weapon, right? Take whichever one you fancy, pick whatever you want.

"Tang, are you crazy?!"

Yu Yin was greatly alarmed.

One was having a wild idea, and the other actually dared to agree.

Brown, on the other hand, was flustered and said, "Sir, I was just saying that casually. It's enough to learn even a little bit."

He gestured with his fingers.

"Where did your spirit go?" Tang Sen chuckled and patted Brown's arm. "Besides, you've already said it, so there's no reason for you to go back on your word now."

Brown was just yelling that if others could do it, why couldn't he?

Brown paused for a moment, then immediately said, "Sir, then I'll practice."

If Tang Sen has confidence, why shouldn't I?

"You're both crazy, you're both crazy."

Ewing kept shaking his head.

But he couldn't help but think, what if Brown really does develop this skill?

With Brown's current ability, plus his skyhook and dream footwork, how powerful would he be in the paint?
"Sir, how do we practice?" Brown was already eager to try.

Tang Sen pointed at Ewing, thinking to himself that he should practice this move until he was proficient.

Tang Sen still needs to carefully consider how to train.

For example, the Skyhook.

For ordinary players, a hook shot is a shot that is released naturally when jumping, with the arm making a pushing motion.

Brown's hook shot is also like that.

The skyhook, on the other hand, relies more on the power of the wrist and fingers. The arm is raised high, allowing you to shoot at the highest point and avoid being blocked by the opponent.

Therefore, feel is very important.

Tang Sen thought of practicing bouncing the ball against the wall.

It seems Brown needs to start practicing.

As for the Dream Step, the key is actually body coordination and core stability.

This is more geared towards physical training.

Therefore, basic training is essential, and you can adjust your training plan to include more of this.

What is coordination?
The scientific explanation is that different muscle groups in the body complete the movement in a balanced, stable, and rhythmic manner when the timing, direction, and speed are correct.

But in Tang Sen's view, it simply comes down to the ability to control one's body.

For example, an earthquake.

You sway and fall over, you can't even stand up straight.

However, some people can not only stand firm in a swaying environment, but also scale walls and perform various actions.

That can be simply viewed as the latter having incredible coordination.

This can be improved through muscle training and vestibular nerve training.

However, Tang Sen prefers to simulate an environment that makes it easier to train this coordination.

How about making an earthquake simulator?
That seems a bit over the top; I wonder how high the cost would be.

Moreover, imbalance is fundamental, but more importantly, it simulates the real competitive environment on the field.

Tang Sen couldn't think of this right away, so he could only think about it slowly later.

Turning his head, Tang Sen saw McGrady looking in his direction from afar.

You don't need to guess what he's thinking.

Tang Sen waved to him.

McGrady quickly ran over, smiling, and asked, "Don, have you made up your mind? You said yesterday that you'd teach me today."

Tang Sen never even considered him.

However, after I got back yesterday, I actually took some time to think about McGrady.

Like Brown, Tangsen's initial idea was also to design the game based on McGrady's physical talents.

Compared to Brown, McGrady's talent is truly worthy of being discussed on a historical level.

When stationary, his wingspan is astonishing, and his hands are enormous.

In terms of dynamics, he has excellent explosive power, amazing jumping ability, and frighteningly good coordination.

Both static and dynamic effects are truly top-notch.

In Tang Sen's view, McGrady's greatest talent was actually coordination.

He has the size of a small forward, but possesses the jumping ability and speed of a smaller guard.

Therefore, he can be regarded as a supermodel monster, someone who truly has everything you have and everything I have that you don't.

Of course, spinal problems are a potential concern.

However, after working with him for a while, Tang Sen felt that this problem was not too bad and could be avoided by adjusting his technique.

Just like Jordan, after a major injury, he adjusted his playing style, trying to jump and land on both feet as much as possible. If landing on one foot is unavoidable, he would not exert force at first, but would put on support after landing on both feet.

Tracy McGrady can prevent lower back injuries to some extent by focusing on core training.

But because of his exceptional talent, Tang Sen didn't know what special skill to practice.

Because it felt like McGrady had the potential to master any skill.

This can be seen from previous training.

If you let him practice rhythm changes, he can immediately execute them.

Even if he slows down after breaking through, he can still use it immediately.

She's just incredibly talented.

After gaining insights from his conversation with Brown, Tang Sen decided to pose the question to McGrady.

Just treat me like a genie; make any wish you want.

What do you want to practice?

McGrady's eyes glazed over for a moment, then he said without hesitation, "Michael's fadeaway jumper!"

Tang Sen sighed, thinking to himself, "Why don't I find it strange at all?"
