Chapter 234 Big Ball Small Ball (73100)

Wang Bo threw the ball to me, and I patted the yellow, blue, and white floral basketball, thinking it was quite fun.

While dribbling the big basketball, I jogged towards the basket, stepped up the basket in three steps, and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands in the air!

"Kang~dang~!" Strangely, he dunked the big basketball, which was almost the same size as the basket, into the basket.

I didn't know Wang Bo's intention of using the big basketball, so I immediately asked: "Why? Do you want me to hold this ball and dunk it directly?"

"Of course it's not a direct dunk. Today I want to improve your shooting percentage and ability to catch the ball!" Wang Bo said firmly.

"Hit rate and ability to catch the ball?" I was confused.

"That's right! In addition to crazily repeated shots, CIC can also practice big ball shooting. Big ball shooting can significantly improve your shooting percentage. When you shoot normally, you feel that the basket is bigger and you can aim more accurately!" Wang Bo said in a fantastic way

"What do you mean?" I felt that Wang Bo was fooling me.

"Ordinary size 7 basketballs can be used for regular shooting practice. Shooting 2000 shots a day is very suitable, but occasionally shooting a big basketball can make you feel better when shooting." Wang Bo patted the big basketball vigorously, and then passed the ball to me with a "snap~!", "Come on~! You shoot first!"

"Is this a long-range shot?" I lowered my head and dribbled the ball and asked Wang Bo.

"Don't be too far away, mid-range is fine." Wang Bo pulled me and instructed me to stand one step outside the three-second zone at a zero-degree angle, and then started shooting.

I dribbled the ball, smiling, thinking I was being funny, dribbling in place, jumping, shooting!
"Bang~!" The ball bounced out of the box, but it missed!
Wang Bo explained from the side: "This ball is relatively large, and the shot must be very accurate. The goal point must enter the basket from the middle to score a goal. Any shot that is slightly off will bounce out of the frame. Therefore, you must be very accurate when shooting with this large blue ball, so that you will unconsciously put the ball in the middle. After this practice, shooting ordinary basketball feels very smooth."

"Really?" I showed a puzzled expression.

"Obviously it's true, let's practice first. In the first few games, you were fine for breaking through and dunking, but you lost the chain with several key shots in the mid-range shot. Now you need to improve your open mid-range shot ability." Wang Bo stood under the basket without any explanation, and threw the big ball that just popped up to me again, which made me start shooting repeatedly.

But it's strange to say that Wang Bo's training does make sense. I don't know if he found it from the Internet, or he was born a basketball coach.His set of training is still very effective. At the beginning, it is difficult to score such a large blue ball.Even though he became more and more proficient at throwing, his hit rate was still not high.

But after about 500 shots, Wang Bo passed me a normal-sized basketball from the sidelines.I instantly felt that a normal basketball is so small, and after I shot it, I felt that the basket was so big.It feels like the No. 7 ball in your hand is like a small stone, and the basket is like a vast ocean, and you can score goals by throwing it casually!

"My God~! This feeling is so strange. I feel that the basket is so big and the ball is so small." I was surprised by Wang Bo's training methods.

"Swipe, swipe, swipe!" I took an ordinary basketball and threw wildly, and my hit rate increased significantly!
"That's it," Wang Bo watched from the side as I shot, "But you don't need to practice too much big ball shooting. It's fine to practice once in a while. Ordinary basketball practice is normal. Just keep shooting."

Wang Bo suddenly changed the topic: "Then start catching the ball!"

"Catch the ball?!" I stared at Wang Bo with wide eyes.

"That's right. At present, the domestic commercial competitions and school leagues you are participating in are not very good at stealing the ball. Especially when you catch the ball, you basically don't have any difficulties. But you have also seen that the opponent's steals and defenses are very tough. When you catch the ball inside, it is very likely that you will not be able to catch the pass from your teammates, so you must practice catching the ball." Wang Bo said meaningfully.

"How to practice?" I obeyed Director Wang's advice, and he could play with me however he wanted.

"You stand on the inside and I'll pass the ball to you!"

I strode out of the inside three-second zone, with my back facing the basket and facing Wang Bo who was outside the three-point line. But at this time, Wang Bo didn't have a basketball in his hand. I was surprised what Director Wang was going to do.

Suddenly, Wang Bo took out a small ball from his pocket.I took a closer look and saw that it was a tennis ball. To my surprise, Wang Bo smashed the tennis ball on the ground heavily, and a ball hit the ground and rushed towards me!
"Ah~!" I was taken aback, and I used my hand to catch the tennis ball, but I missed it, and the tennis ball slipped away from the gap in my right hand!
"Hey?! What's going on?" As I said that, I turned around and chased after the tennis ball that had bounced away, picked it up outside the court, and threw it to Wang Bo again.

Instructor Wang immediately started class: "The catching practice is just the opposite of the shooting just now. The catching practice requires a small ball like a tennis ball to catch the ball. The smaller the ball you catch, the better you can control the gestures and movements of catching the ball during practice. This long-term practice will help you catch the pass from the point guard steadily when catching a bigger basketball."

"What you said makes sense, but I'm speechless." I had a cute little white expression on my face.

"Yes, you feel it." Wang Bo said and was outside the three-point line, hitting the ground and passing the ball directly so that I could catch the ball with my back to the basket near the three-second zone.

I caught the ball several times in a row, occasionally turned around and shot the ball with a small hook, and hit the board into the basket.

After a string of repeated catches, probably more than 100 balls were caught.Wang Bo took out a standard basketball again and let me catch it. I instantly felt that the basketball was so big and it was very easy to catch the ball.

"Papapapa~!" Wang Bo passed the ball with ordinary basketball. Whether I catch the ball with both hands or with one hand, it is very accurate and stable.

I said to Wang Bo with a playful smile, "Not bad, I wonder where you learned the training of shooting big balls and catching small balls?"

"You don't care where I learned it, anyway, this is my teaching model." Wang Bo said hesitantly.

"My God~! You really regard yourself as a king guide, may I give you a suggestion?"

"Don't give advice, practice shooting and catching the ball seriously." Wang Bo knew that I was going to talk nonsense, and wisely expressed that he didn't want to hear it.

"The tennis ball used for this catching practice is still too big. I suggest changing it to a table tennis ball or a small marble, which is not smaller." After speaking, I immediately gave an example to Wang Bo, "You see, a small marble is just a jumping chess piece, and it is only as big as a fingernail. If you pass the small marble to me, if I can catch it, then tennis balls and other big balls will definitely be able to catch it, let alone basketball. What do you think?"
