Best of the day: Brother Pingtou

Chapter 18 Mental Mastery
~

Fang Xiaotian, who is far away across the ocean, does not know that there is already a group of enthusiastic netizens in China planning to build a personal website for him.At this time, he was sitting on the bench and listening to Kidd explain the next tactics, while watching his teammates wolf down bananas to replenish their physical strength with great interest.

The 1-minute pause time is not too long, but it can do a lot of things.At present, there are a little more than 2 minutes before the end of the first quarter. Almost all the main players of the 76ers are off the court to rest, and only a group of role players are on the court.

Seeing this group of guys, Fang Xiaotian was very happy, because the opportunity came again.He knows the psychology of role players, because he was also a role player in college and fought hard for a main position.At such a moment, if you can have a wonderful performance, it is not a problem to be spotted by the head coach and go further in the team.

As an undrafted pick, Henry Sims has been able to make progress step by step from the Discovery League, so he naturally cherishes every opportunity to play.In fact, the 76ers also have the tallest center—Hashim Thabeet, whose height is 221, which is the tower of the 76ers, but he has been cut because of poor performance, and the remaining center is the best 2 meters 08, it pales in comparison to Fang Xiaotian.

And Fang Xiaotian exploded them after jumping. As a tall center that is becoming rare day by day, as long as he slowly develops his offensive ability, it will not be a problem to stand firm in the league.As for the ability to resist?Fang Xiaotian is still afraid that others will confront him?
But Sims didn't think so. In his opinion, the reason why Noel was disgraced by Fang Xiaotian was because he lost his composure as a player and was stimulated by Fang Xiaotian's arrogant words.

According to the head coach's instructions, he needs to pull Fang Xiaotian out of the paint to create offensive opportunities for his teammates.If Fang Xiaotian stays inside and can't come out, then he can use a stable mid-range shot to kill him. His 2-meter wingspan is enough for him to find shooting space among the Bucks players.

Sims thinks so, and does the same.Now Xiaotian is in a dilemma. He has never encountered this kind of situation before. You say that you are a big center and you don’t stand on the inside. Why are you walking outside the penalty area?

Fang Xiaotian gave Sims a resentful look, which made Sims' goosebumps rise.Thinking about being looked at by a villain with resentful eyes, the feeling is not too sour.

Fang Xiaotian was pulled out of the restricted area, and he no longer wandered around the edge of the restricted area. The 76ers took the opportunity to attack a few, not to mention, the effect was not bad.He scored one in three rounds, made a foul, and got four points all at once, but Fang Xiaotian didn't touch a single hair.

This is embarrassing, the beast that had been in a hurry turned off all of a sudden, and the cheers from the fans on the scene were also weak. They still want to see Fang Xiaotian's performance again!Don't be restrained immediately!
Fang Xiaotian was also anxious, they still have a lot of data waiting for him to obtain!This is not going to work, we have to think of a way, otherwise the first quarter will be over, and such a good opportunity will be wasted.Moreover, if no solution can be found, the 76ers will use the same method to deal with themselves in the future, and other teams will follow suit.

Seeing Sims winking at him, Fang Xiaotian spat secretly.Ma De, don't let me seize the opportunity, or a hot pot will send you down to rest.

The first quarter of the game ended quickly. Fang Xiaotian didn't get a block when he was off the court, but he caught a few rebounds. No, it should be said that as long as he caught all the rebounds within his contact range, the matchup Henry Sims didn't catch a single board.

5分9篮板3帽2助攻，这是方小天在短短4分钟内交出的答卷。他自己对这个结束不满意，但教练组却相当开心。

Nima!Finally picked up a big baby!Judging from Fang Xiaotian's current performance, he is not at all uncomfortable from the NCAA to the NBA. Unlike the unlucky Hashim Thabeet who was cut by the 76ers, he entered the league with the second overall pick in the draft, but was rejected by the 76ers. The Grizzlies were sent to the Development League to exercise, which was simply horrible.After that, he moved to many teams in the league, and was waived within a few days after entering the [-]ers.

To be able to find such a powerful guy from the second-round pick is a change of luck for the Bucks.

"Fang, are you tired?" Kidd personally handed Fang Xiaotian a Snickers bar, and then asked.

"Extremely relaxed, Jason." Fang Xiaotian said. "But that coward Sims always wanders outside the penalty area. I have no good way to protect the basket." Fang Xiaotian honestly told Kidd the difficulties he is currently encountering, hoping that the head coach can give him some help.

"It's okay, Fang, you've done enough. It's not your responsibility to protect the basket alone. I'm very satisfied with you!" Kidd patted Fang Xiaotian's head and said with a smile. "As for the difficulties you encountered, to be honest, you can only rely on yourself to explore and strengthen the connection with your teammates. Only in this way can you slowly improve. By the way, since you are not tired, then you continue to play , I also want to see where your limit is?"

"Thank you, Jason." Fang Xiaotian thanked him sincerely.He knew that Kidd was cultivating himself, giving himself a little more exercise, so that he could grow up quickly.

There are still many players waiting on the field in the team. They have marginal players, water fountain guards, and other rotation players.To have so much playing time, in addition to his ability to play amazing games, Kidd's cultivation is indispensable.

Fang Xiaotian wants to continue to do unfinished tasks, but he doesn't want to narrow the gap between the two teams because of his actions. It is indeed a dilemma, at least for him at present, it is not a small difficulty.But isn’t there a saying in my hometown?There are always more solutions than difficulties!I have traveled across the ocean to the United States, and I have already entered the NBA. How can I be stumped by a little difficulty!
Although I haven't figured out what to do, Fang Xiaotian doesn't regret choosing the difficult task. What's the big deal if you don't need to strengthen this point?As long as one's own abilities are reflected, he is not afraid that the head coach will not reuse him.And as long as he has playing time, he can slowly train himself. Even if there is no strengthening point, he can hone his skills and gradually gain a foothold in the league.

After understanding, Fang Xiaotian regained his previous agility and strengthened his connection with his teammates. Off-ball screens, pick-and-rolls, changing defenses, filling positions... From the offensive end to the defensive end, Fang Xiaotian is playing his due role. Completing the mission is the first goal.

Anyway, there will always be what you should have, as long as you try your best, be happy, and make progress, you will never escape what should be yours.
