Chapter 16 The Falcons

Yang Ze returned to the training life again. When there was no class, he just soaked in the training field, and the time in the evening was not wasted. Colin was imparting some theoretical knowledge.

Colin will find out some classic NBA games and watch them with Yang Ze. When he has a tactical idea, he will pause and tell Yang Ze how to move the players on the field. How to defend against these tactics.

Colin will not talk too much about theoretical things at one time. The first thing to talk about is some of the most common offensive and defensive situations on the field.

For example, how to break the opponent's zone defense. Three-pointers are of course a great weapon, but the era of small balls has not really come yet.Today's NBA is at the intersection of the traditional style of play and the small ball era. Many teams still prefer more stable two-pointers and inside scoring. Of course, the same sentence, defense is still an important part of this era.

Colin told Yang Ze again that if the three-pointer is not enough to face the zone defense, and when the breakthrough cannot be made, he should run more and use more pick-and-rolls.

That is, the 76ers' defense against the Pistons during the day.

Theory needs to be supported by practice. Fortunately, West Lion Club can temporarily solve Yang Ze's actual combat problem.

When Ze Yang came to West Lions Club on Monday night, Sean Kasim gave Yang Ze a big hug as soon as he came up.

"Young, thank you for helping me get the West Lions starting power forward spot in front of Byron."

Yang Ze punched Kasim in the chest and said, "It's not my fault, it's entirely because your performance met expectations."

"Hahaha" Kasim smiled happily.

"Go, let's train together."

The current staffing of the West Lions is eight people, Ze Yang, Morrow, Bryan, Sean Kassim, Jamal Leuer, small forward Toru Yajura, power forward Jeff Hunter, center Michelle Hanks.

The West Lion Club has three trainers, two of whom are responsible for the training of other members of the club, and one is responsible for the training of the West Lion team.

The training is divided into two parts, one is group training, mainly practicing mutual passing, pick-and-roll and defensive issues.

In terms of personal training, the trainer will arrange according to each person's situation. Except for Yang Ze, everyone else knows what they should train.

The trainer asked Yang Ze to practice shooting because he didn't know the specific situation of Yang Ze. He would watch Yang Ze's performance in the following games and give suggestions.

At the end of the day's training, Byron walked over holding a tactical board with a few sheets of A4 paper on it.

"Guys, stop for a moment." Byron gave an order, and everyone stopped the training in their hands.

Seeing everyone approaching him, he continued: "At eight o'clock this Friday night, our West Lions accepted the challenge from the Falcons."

This is the start of the game?
It's faster than Yang Ze thought. He estimated that there will be another half a month before the game. After all, the number of teams is not enough, and the running-in is not enough. How much tacit understanding can there be?

When Kassim and Jamal heard that there was a game, they were a little excited, while Morrow, Brian and others, as veteran players, frowned when they heard the name of the Falcons.

Seeing their expressions, Yang Ze asked, "What's the matter, the Falcons are strong?"

Brian looked at Ze Yang and asked, "The Falcons are near the Pennsylvania State University, don't you know?"

Yang Ze shook his head, how long has he traveled here?
He usually lives at Colin's house, so he spends less time in school. He runs to the training ground after class. Where does he have the time to pay attention to the Falcons basketball club?

Brian still has a good impression of Ze Yang. Although Ze Yang's final kill made him embarrassed, but in the previous game, Ze Yang's protective action saved him from injury, so he is still grateful to Ze Yang of.

Bryan said: "I don't know the specific strength of the Falcons. It is said that they are very strong. They can be ranked in the top three amateur basketball clubs in Philadelphia. Their registration fee is also very expensive, twice as much as ours."

hiss.
Yang Ze's teammates looked at each other with bitter faces. The first opponent was so strong, and Byron was not afraid of hitting the team members' self-confidence.

Byron took Bryan's words and said: "I will give you a detailed introduction to the situation of the Falcons, and you don't have to pay too much attention to the results of the game.

The West Lions team has just been established and has not yet been run-in, so I don't ask you to win the game, as long as you try your best to show our due strength in the game.

In this game, we will consider it as training, and we have Yang and Xiao En joining us, so our strength has also improved. "

The existence of some clubs is purely for basketball lovers to find like-minded friends and play together.

The so-called no brothers, no basketball is the truth, basketball is a team sport, it is fun to have people together.

This is the original intention of West Lions Club. Of course, you join the club and give you training. These registration fees and training fees are indispensable.

Some clubs have been developing for a long time and are stronger.

Afterwards, Byron talked about the situation of the Falcons. The 12-member team has both offense and defense. Most of the players in their team are young people, students from various universities in the university town.

Unlike the Granville Lions, except for Yang Ze and Morrow, the others are all involved in the work, and some of them are facing too much, and they are in their thirties.

Basketball, after all, is a sport for young people, even NBA players are no exception. Once they pass 32, the peak is no longer there, and it is slowly going downhill.

Of course, except for the monster LeBron James.

The college students of the Falcons are younger, more talented, and more athletic than the West Lions. Some of them have even reached the school team level, which is infinitely close to the NCAA level.

In the NCAA in the United States, it can be regarded as college students’ professional basketball. Many players in the NBA are famous through the NCAA, and then they are selected by the team in the draft.

So players who are infinitely close to the NCAA level are already considered semi-professional players.

It would not be too difficult for those aged and average athletic players to play against the West Lions.

No wonder Brian and the others frowned when they heard the name of the Falcons.

"Everyone has been training hard recently, waiting for our opponent to arrive on Saturday." Byron said and turned to leave.

Ze Yang finished training and returned to Colin's home. They were already asleep. On Monday and Wednesday, Ze Yang went to West Lions Club. Colin also took advantage of these two days to rest. When the game came, he would go to see Ze Yang to find out the problems of Ze Yang.

The next day, Ze Yang told Colin that they were Friday's opponent.Colin also advised Yang Ze to try his best, the opponent's strength is very balanced, and the strength of the Lions team is uneven.

In this day's training, Yang Ze worked harder than usual. Even if Colin set the goal every day, even if he was short of time because of the class, he would go back to take a shower after training at night.

The master leads the door, and the practice depends on the individual. Yang Ze knows that if the teacher is good, he will be blind if he doesn't work hard.

Tens of thousands of feet tall buildings rise from the ground, and you have to rely on yourself to become stronger.

Time passed day by day in training, and Friday came quickly.
