All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Chapter 50 Magnetic Defense!

While Su Feng and Tracy McGrady were playing happily, on the afternoon of June 28, the 1995 draft was officially held in Toronto.

This is a draft that will have a profound impact on the future. At the same time, it is also the first time that two new NBA teams, the Toronto Raptors and Vancouver Grizzlies, participate in the draft.

Joe Smith from the University of Maryland was selected by the Golden State Warriors with the first overall pick in the first round.

Smith has comprehensive skills. During his rookie period with the Warriors, his performance was fully worthy of the title of No. 1 pick.

The turning point in Smith's fortunes came toward the end of his rookie contract.

Because he disliked the Warriors for being so bad, Smith, under the deception of the famous agent Fagan, insisted on entering the free agent market after the season to test the waters, and rejected the Warriors' four-year, 36 million offer at the time.

In order to avoid a fight, after failing to renew his contract early, the Warriors had no choice but to trade Smith to the Philadelphia 76ers.

But when he arrived in Philadelphia, Smith discovered that even if you were the No. 1 pick, you had to kneel down under Larry Brown.

Then because of the NBA lockout, after the NBA reopened the free agent market in February of the following year, Smith was confused...

Therefore, his agent Fei Gen came up with a way for him to build a plank road openly and secretly infiltrate Chen Cang.

First, he was asked to sign with the Timberwolves for 2 years and 1.75 million US dollars, which was lower than the market price, and then secretly signed a 7-year, 86 million contract with the Timberwolves.

The direct result of this famous yin and yang contract is that the Timberwolves, who were originally real Timberwolves, instantly turned into Huskies.

Because before the lockout, the Timberwolves had completed a 6-year, 126 million-dollar agreement with Garnett.

So after the league discovered Smith's contract, the Timberwolves were outraged by Stern, who directly deprived him of his first-round draft picks for the next five seasons and faced a huge fine.

At the same time, Smith was ordered to become a free agent by the league.

Because during the lockout, labor and management reached multiple agreements, the NBA's salary capping system became increasingly complete.

Therefore, this yin and yang contract and Garnett's sky-high contract also directly caused the Timberwolves to lose most of the team's operating space without draft picks.

Smith, who was once the No. 1 overall pick, has since become an ordinary NBA player.

In the future, after he retires, he will have to go to TV shows to ask for help because he is bankrupt.

So, please tell me whether you will die or not?

If someone offers you a big contract, you don't want it, so you have to take risks.

To put it bluntly, the brain is really a good thing.

After Smith was selected by the Warriors, Antonio McDyess was selected by the Clippers with the second overall pick in the first round.

Next, the Philadelphia 76ers selected NBA protagonist Jerry Stackhouse with the third pick in the first round.

In other words, Stackhouse's introduction simply has a physique that is 100% slapped in the face.

He sprayed Jordan, but was beaten by Jordan; he wanted to educate Kobe, but was beaten by Kobe; he wanted to compete with AI for unlimited firing rights, but was directly sent away by the team; in addition, before participating in the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, he also confidently told the media , he is no worse than his junior brother Carter...

Then there was nothing more. After Stackhouse helped these NBA "protagonists" build their confidence, he didn't even become a star player.

In order to avoid being slapped in the face, Stackhouse simply acted as a role player.

After the No. 1 pick, No. 2 pick, and No. 3 pick in 1995 were released one after another, the players in this year's top tier are also ready.

Rasheed Wallace was selected by the Washington Bullets with the fourth pick in the first round.

With the fifth pick in the first round, the Timberwolves selected talented high school student Kevin Garnett.

It is worth mentioning that when CEO Garnett was drafted by the Timberwolves, Celtics vice president Jennings said like a lemon: "Kevin is the best player in the NBA since Moses Malone." high school student, but if he had gone to college, he would have been more successful in the NBA."

It is said that when Garnett saw this comment, he felt that Mr. Jennings' logic was very weird.

because......

If he could get into college, would he need to come to the NBA to start a sect?

Before he even entered the NBA, Garnett felt the world was full of malice towards him!

This is definitely ridicule, this is definitely trash talk, this is definitely deliberately disturbing my mentality!

Garnett vowed that he must become an expert in trash talking. From now on, he will be the only one who can trash talk others in the NBA, and they will never let others trash talk him!

Ahem, let’s get down to business.

Next, the relatively well-known player of this class, Stoudemire, nicknamed "Little Flying Squirrel", was selected by the Raptors with the seventh pick in the first round.

"White people can fly" Brent Barry was selected by the Nuggets with the 15th pick in the first round, and Michael Finley was selected by the Suns with the 21st pick in the first round...

Others, like Bob Sura, Donnie Marshall, Eric Snow and others, were brought home for training by the team that liked them just like Su Feng in his previous life.

Back to Orlando.

After completing the physical tests on Su Feng and McGrady, Su Feng and McGrady's physical test data completely shocked the three trainers.

Although Su Feng's current potential has been blocked by the 7.0 Blacksmithing System, don't forget that he is only 17 years old.

As for McGrady, let alone that. After reading McGrady's physical test data, Mancias directly said with emotion: "The sky is his limit."

Of course, during the physical examination of McGrady, Mancias also discovered that McGrady's spine was different from that of ordinary people.

Therefore, Mancias suggested to Tracy McGrady: "I suggest you not to gain weight too fast in the future. In addition, you must reduce the number of breakthroughs to avoid collisions."

In Su Feng's previous life, when McGrady won the scoring title with the Magic, he mainly used pull-up jumpers. At that time, McGrady averaged nearly 40 minutes per game, and except for the occasional minor injury, he did not suffer any major injuries.

Later, after going to the Rockets, McGrady's weight also increased due to the cancellation of the HC rules.

Mancias was right to suggest that McGrady control his weight, but in Su Feng's view, if McGrady wants to truly avoid serious injuries, just controlling his weight and reducing breakthroughs is not enough.

In fact, the most suitable style of play for McGrady is health basketball.

Show your talents as much as possible in the limited time. Only in this way can McGrady's career become longer.

But there is no way. In the 1990s, as the star of the team, if you don't play for about 40 minutes, in the eyes of others, you are a coward.

It is the tradition of this era to fuck the main force to death.

It is worth mentioning that after the day's training, Su Feng went out of his way to find Fraser.

Because through one-on-one with Tracy McGrady, Su Feng found that it was difficult to defend against a player who was taller and faster than himself.

You know, even now, McGrady has not yet mastered his magical skills. If McGrady is more accurate, Su Feng will not be able to defeat McGrady before the end of this holiday.

Although the iron value is very important, improving one's own strength is the key.

If he can't handle McGrady, who is a sophomore in high school, how can Su Feng play in the NBA?

Su Feng knew that his "dribbling skills" would be difficult to develop in a short period of time, so he planned to start with his best defense.

Frazier was Nash's coach in his previous life. In addition to coaching Nash's shooting, he also coached Nash's defense.

Um......

Although coaching Nash on defense seemed useless to Su Feng, no matter what, Su Feng believed that Frazier had his own merits.

"You mean you're having a hard time guarding Tracy now?" Frazier asked curiously.

"Yes, and when we faced Kobe before, they had too many offensive moves, and it was difficult for me to judge their offensive intentions." Su Feng replied.

"Then why not try to take the initiative?" Fraser said to Su Feng.

"Take the initiative?" Su Feng asked.

"Yes." Under Fraser's guidance, Su Feng quickly understood what it meant to take the initiative.

If Su Feng had only learned the basics of "Death Coil" and "Mad Dog Defense" before, then what Fraser would teach him next was the elite course.

For example, Fraser told Su Feng how to reasonably use HC rules and how to use his two hands when defending players who are good at breakthroughs.

For another example, Fraser also told Su Feng how to maintain a safe defensive distance.

Combined with his previous defensive experience, Su Feng quickly realized a new defensive method under Fraser's guidance.

Su Feng calls this defensive method "magnetic defense", which can also be called "spare tire defense". UU Reading www.uukanshu.net

To give a simple example, your goddess treats you as a spare tire and usually doesn't take the initiative to talk to you, but once she feels that you are indifferent to her, she will come up to you and let you continue to greet her.

This ambivalent relationship lies between 30 and 50 centimeters, because Fraser simply drew a defensive radius for Su Feng based on Su Feng's wingspan and Su Feng's lateral movement speed.

Within this range, Su Feng would retreat when McGrady jumped out. Once McGrady wanted to shoot, Su Feng could move forward and use his wingspan to block his face.

“There’s no need to be too fierce in defense, and there’s no need to be aggressive, because you can’t defend every time.

In my opinion, as long as the opponent can be forced to consume, even if it is physical consumption, the defense will be successful. "Fraser said to Su Feng.

In the next few days, Su Feng also began to adopt this new defensive method to deal with McGrady when he was one-on-one.

So don't tell me...

It's really useful.

Because Su Feng won the first duel victory in his career.

After countless times of negative, negative, negative, negative, Su Feng, he won!

21 to 18, looking at McGrady who was already lying down from exhaustion, Su Feng only wished that there was no camera at this moment.

Otherwise, he must record this moment.

See, I beat McGrady, I beat McGrady!

Um......

Although defeating a guy who is one year younger than myself seems nothing to be proud of...

But no matter what, Su Feng gained a lot of experience on the defensive end, didn't he?

And just when Su Feng was excitedly complaining about McGrady with his hands on his hips, suddenly, in his mind...
