Basketball Coach Li

The rookie wall describes the rookie entering the NBA, usually in a certain period of time without state, like an invisible wall blocking the way forward.

Every year after the start of the season, rookies seem to become more and more active. They will jump higher and run faster.

Unfortunately, the NBA is a sports marathon, not a sprint.

Since the start of the training camp, you have to practice twice a day for a whole month, followed by eight preseason games. Then there are 82 games to torment you on the long road, which is full of a dozen back-to-back races and endless days of flying, staying in hotels and riding buses.

A rookie like Wang Dazhi is still a 19-22 year old. The rookie season is basically multiplying his college schedule by three.

When both physical strength and spirit began to collapse a little, the "Rookie Wall" came.

Most rookies will bump into this evil wall to varying degrees in their debut season.

Especially when you look forward to devoting everything to basketball and travel.

For many rookies, if they play for a long time, they may feel trapped in the trouble of the rookie wall. This is a normal thing.

However, the question is how long it takes to get out of it.

Li Nan gave Wang Dazhi a good explanation. "Dazhi, this is the rookie wall. It's normal, everyone will encounter it."

Wang Dazhi seemed to have caught something, "Have you had it before?"

"Of course! Everyone will have it. It's as strong as Jordan! It's just that each person has a different experience." Li Nan's eyes didn't blink.

"Then what am I going to do?" Wang Dazhi was really tortured and a little decayed, and now he can't wait to crash this "rookie wall" immediately.

How to do? Li Nan had never experienced it himself, and he really didn't know what to do.

"Stop it! Yes! Dazhi, you have to survive it! You are a soldier! Such a small difficulty is not difficult for our Chinese soldiers! I can survive it, and so can you!"

Li Nan could only give Wang Dazhi a good encouragement. Although I don't know how effective it is, it is always positive.

On the other end, "Hmm!"

It sounds like Wang Dazhi's spirit is so refreshed. After all, if he knew what was going on, he wouldn't be a headless fly like before.

"These are all small things and will pass soon..."

After hanging up the call from Wang Dazhi, Li Nan hurried to find the old man Larry Brown.

"Shit! Shit rookie wall!" Larry Brown taught Li Nan well, "This is the problem of decreased concentration and decreased mental concentration! I have been in class with children for a long time, like a machine running After a long time, this is the same truth."

Li Nan didn't quite understand, he just nodded silently and said yes, "What should I do then?"

"You should eat, drink, and do what you want to do most in your heart. Don't push yourself too much...In short, you are tired, you have to rest!"

Larry Brown didn't seem to take this rookie wall seriously, but Li Nan was taught.

Soon, Li Nan called Wang Dazhi back again.

"What are you doing? I'm going to train." Wang Dazhi's voice soon came, and his spirit was alright.

"Oh, it's okay. Just to tell you, when you return to New York, I will treat you to a big meal. After all, our brothers have not seen each other for a long time." Li Nan said sincerely.

However, Wang Dazhi didn't believe in Li Nan, "Ha ha~ Xiao Li, don't forget it. Every time I invite me to a big meal, every time it is a white water chicken."

"I really invite you to a big meal this time!" Li Nan tried to make his tone more sincere.

"Well, please, please." Wang Dazhi said perfunctorily. .

After hanging up the phone, Li Nan shook his head helplessly.

Unexpectedly, the "wolf is coming" story will happen to me one day, sad~~

...

On February 1, the NBA announced the events of the All-Star individual event and the list of entries.

Skills Challenge: John Stockton, Tim Hardaway, Gary Payton, Jason Kidd, Stephen Marbury, Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Li Nan

Slam Dunk Contest: Kobe, McGrady, Stackhouse, Michael Finley, Chris Kyle, Darwin Hamm

Three-point shooting contest: Jeff Hornacek, Steve Kerr, Glen Rice, Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, Hubert Davis, Dale Ellis , Tracy Murray.

...

What is surprising is that the last dunk contest that was promised last year, the result appeared again this year!

Surprisingly, there was no defending champion Li Nan in the three-point contest or dunk contest, but Li Nan's name appeared in the new skill contest.

The most fascinating thing is also a new project in this All-Star Game, the Skills Challenge.

"Skills Challenge? What kind of competition is this?"

"Why do so many stars participate in the skill competition? It is so attractive, it will definitely be exciting, right?"

"Skills competition is definitely a game to show skills, but, how to compare, what to compare? Curious! Looking forward to it!"

Soon, NBA officials also broadcast a video on TV:

After the referee’s whistle, the player takes the ball and completes a layup, then dribbles the ball through four obstacles to the other half. He is greeted with a passing task, passing the ball into a round net basket. , Followed by another test of hitting the ball. This is a lower height and slightly downward net basket. Next, the players will make a jump shot from the top of the circle at a distance of 6.7 meters from the bottom line and within the three-point line. Later, they have to accept another pass test, and then complete the layup after bypassing three obstacles. The 3 players with the shortest time in the preliminary rounds of the 6 contestants will enter the final, and the player with the shortest time in the final will win the championship.

Everyone quickly understood. The skill contest tests three things: dribbling, passing and pitching. It is a competition to compete with players' basic skills.

"It seems very interesting~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Those guys are pretty clever."

"The NBA can't be squeezed by the NFL. Is this a trick that was forced to come up?"

Soon, the "New York Times" also broke the news.

"According to an NBA official who asked not to be named, the reason Li refused to participate in the three-point contest and dunk contest was because he had no opponent."

As soon as this report came out, it quickly seized the news sections, and Li Nan was accidentally pushed to the forefront.

"No one is arrogant, China Li is a bit too arrogant."

"Li's three-pointers are indeed accurate, but they are not so unbreakable."

"Lee's dunk is really good, but there are more people who can dunk in the United States."

Also because Li Nan made the headlines, the All-Star Game became popular and followed...
