Chapter 90: Asian Championships
After Lian Dao got the ball, he chose to attack inside. Since he learned inside footwork, he must use inside skills.
But when he just leaned against Yao Ming with his back and wanted to use his strength to hit him with his back.
It was found that Yao Ming couldn't defend at all. This was the first time that Lian Dao was weak in strength.
There is no way, there is no strength advantage, only through other methods.
Lian Dao dribbled the ball down the line to make a breakthrough, and approached the basket to fake a layup. Yao Ming also blocked Lian Dao's layup.
Lian Dao relied on Yao Ming to take advantage of the situation and turn towards the upper line, shooting a fake shot, and at this time Yao Ming also made a quick defense to block the block.
After seeing Yao Ming shaken away, Lian Dao went directly to the basket for a layup.
"Snapped!"
A big hand patted Lian Dao's layup on the backboard.
Didn't he shoot fake before, did he shake it away? How did he get here?
Lian Dao also stared blankly at the cover, he didn't think how Yao Ming got here.
"Your movements are too rigid, and you can fool the defenders by making fake moves as real as possible. And you have to use your dreamy steps according to the form." Yao Ming directly pointed out Lian Dao's problem.
Lian Dao thought about his actions, and then he understood that Yao Ming had seen through his fake actions just now, so Yao Ming also took advantage of the situation to make the illusion of being out of position. In fact, Yao Ming had been guarding against Lian Dao's advance basket.
Afterwards, Lian Dao launched another 9 offenses, and only scored twice. The rest of the times were either blocked, or layups were extremely deformed in order to avoid blocks.
Therefore, naturally it is also not in the middle.
"Do you feel that the NBA's defense is much stronger than the NCAA's?" Yao Ming said while looking at Lian Dao.
Lian Dao took a few breaths and nodded.
To be honest, today's inside singles match with Yao Ming really shocked him a bit.
Although Lian Dao suffered some disadvantages in the interior, once he reached the fourth position, collisions in the interior are indispensable in the NBA.
When he faced Thabeet, he could use his strength to crush him, but when facing Yao Ming, he couldn't stand Yao Ming's defense.
In fact, Lian Dao's journey was a bit too smooth.
Yao Ming is also a heavy center forward with a weight of 140 kg inside, which can basically match O'Neal, who weighs 147 kg.
Even Howard couldn't match Yao Ming's lower body strength.
"So, inside offense, confrontation is very important!"
Yao Ming said.
"Actually, your height and size can play in the 3rd and 4th positions, but the specific position depends on which team you go to.
But no matter which position it is, you have to adapt to the NBA as soon as possible. "
"Your strength may be at a disadvantage against me, but it is enough for the 3rd and 4th positions."
Yao Ming then added.
Just now, when Lian Dao was back hitting, Yao Ming was also taken aback by his strength.
He didn't expect that there would be such a great power in a body that wasn't particularly strong.
But as a big brother who has entered the league early, he can't make a fool of himself, so Yao Ming also got serious.
Yao Ming also wants his little brother not to be careless after entering the NBA.
Lian Dao didn't know, he added strength training to his next training plan.
This time is actually very helpful for the growth of Lian Dao.
He originally won the MOP, but his mentality is still a little bit flustered.
This trip to Houston also made him realize that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people!
Yao Ming also chatted with Lian Dao about his rookie period.
The two also chatted happily.
"By the way, there is something to see if you are interested?"
After Yao Ming shared the problems he encountered as a rookie with Lian Dao, he talked about another matter.
"Brother Yao, what's the matter?" Lian Dao was also curious.
"Are you interested in joining this year's Asian Championships?"
"Asian Championships?"
Lian Dao didn't expect this to happen.
"Where do you come from in China, let me ask you, this year the Asian Championships and the Summer League are somewhat overlapping. The Asian Championship is from August 6th to 16th, and the Summer League is from August 9th to 18th. Because of this An Asian Championship is held in our home country, so the higher authorities also attach great importance to it.
Moreover, if you want to participate, you need to train in advance.
This can disrupt your training schedule.
If you have an idea, I will tell you. The most important thing is to see if your team agrees. After all, you will lose part of the team’s running-in training time for early training, and whether the team allows you to experience it in advance. NBA pace, that could get you to summer league.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't have time, after all, the summer league is also a good way to feel the rhythm of the NBA in advance. "
Yao Ming said with a smile.
Since China is the host of the Asian Championships this time, the above also attaches great importance to it. The Olympic Games just ended last year, and China also showed the world a different Olympic style.
And last year, the men's basketball team also achieved the top eight records. Everyone is looking forward to the men's basketball team can truly stand in the forefront of the world.
Therefore, the goal of this year's men's basketball team has also been set: there is only one goal, and that is to regain the championship and reshape the men's basketball team's Asian dominance.
And this time, Yi Jianlian's progress after his NBA experience is obvious to all, so facing Lian Dao, the NCAA championship MOP, the men's basketball team also wants to try it out.
The reason why Yao Ming wants Lian Dao to join is that he knows that the current men's basketball team lacks someone like Lian Dao who can score well and has the ability to organize and pass the ball.
No way, the biggest shortcoming of the men's basketball team is the lack of players who can organize passes.
Not only Yao Ming, but people in China also watched Lian Dao's NCAA game through the live broadcast, so they also have a certain understanding of Lian Dao's ability.
That's why Lian Dao's opinion was sought through Yao Ming.
After all, Lian Dao is not a player in the system, so it is impossible to directly recruit.
Of course, this also depends on Lian Dao's own arrangements.
After Yao Ming finished speaking, he also looked at Lian Dao's decision.
"I have no way of knowing for sure right now."
Lian Dao thought for a while~www.mtlnovel.com~ Lian Dao actually had some impressions of this Asian Championship.
After all, China is the host country, so there is also a lot of domestic attention.
In this Asian Championships, the Chinese team won the second place and did not return to the dominant position in Asia.
All the problems of the Chinese team broke out collectively in the final, and finally lost to the Iranian team 52-70.
This game set 4 disgraceful records, namely the lowest score in a single quarter (10 points in the first quarter), the lowest score in a half (25 points in a half), and the largest loss in the Asian Championships (18 points, previously 16 points) ), lost the championship at home for the first time...
After the game, Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng's "sneaky door" was exposed, and the coach Guo Shiqiang resigned!
And this Asian Championship is the beginning of the men's basketball team's six-year trough.
It was not until 2015 that the men's basketball team won the Asian Championship again.
Although the Asian Championship has been criticized by many people, it is still an international event.
If possible, Lian Dao still wants to participate.
But now, Lian Dao has no way to decide, because he hasn't even participated in the draft, and he doesn't know which team will choose him.
I don't know the opinion of the team that chose me.
Therefore, even if he agrees now, Lian Dao has nothing to do if the team doesn't let him go.
"Don't worry about this, it won't be too late for you to give me an answer after the draft is over."
Yao Ming also saw Lian Dao's worry, so he said with a smile.
Lian Dao also nodded.
Yao Ming saw that it was getting late, so he proposed to have a meal together and let him take part in the host's duties.
Lian Dao did not refuse, so the two walked out of the Toyota Center while chatting.
