Are you ready to go bald?

Lin Ying's mind automatically translated Grover's words.

But whether he becomes bald or becomes stronger, he is ready.

"Let's get started."

Lin Ying said firmly.

Grover smiled and nodded. Lin Ying's character always makes people like him.

He didn't hesitate and went straight to the point.

This summer, he arranged only two training contents: the first step of breakthrough and the pull-up jump shot.

Lin Ying is now an All-Star level point forward, and what Grover is doing now is to increase his singles scoring ability.

These two skills are the trump card of the small forward.

It's a very basic ability, but just like egg fried rice, how to do it well is the key.

Let’s talk about the first step of breakthrough first.

There are too many players in this league who are famous for their first step, including Jordan, McGrady, Hill, Wade, Iverson, Parker, Rose, etc.

One characteristic of this is that the first four were all trained by Grover...

So when practicing this, Grover is definitely a professional.

The core of the first step is speed and explosiveness.

This is also the reason why Grover had to let Lin Ying lay the foundation, because these are simply physical fitness.

Now that the foundation Lin Ying has laid has met his requirements, the next thing to do is how to maximize his improved physical fitness.

First, he would ask Lin Ying to make his body light.

The specific method is to use a series of detailed training: including HOP (jumping in place like a spring), squatting and jumping, jumping quickly with one and two feet, etc.

These trainings can make Lin Ying's body lighter and more elastic.

Just like when you see animals running, they kick their legs and let their bodies eject.

In other words, Lin Ying's previous breakthroughs were similar to James's, relying more on strength;

But now, Lin Ying wants to become more like Tracy McGrady and Hill, maximizing speed and explosive power;

Secondly, he would ask Lin Ying to perform specific 25-meter acceleration sprint training.

He would constantly change his starting position, from standing, to leaning over, to leaning at 60°, 45°, and even kneeling down on one knee in the end.

His purpose in doing this was to train Lin Ying's explosive power, and also to find out the most suitable breakthrough posture for Lin Ying in order to maximize the use of his explosive power.

Next, there are some specific breakthrough training, such as split-leg breakthrough after two HOPs, acceleration without the ball after three threats, etc.

It was just a technical training, and Grover also gradually improved it step by step.

Finally, there is change of direction training.

Breakthroughs and changes of direction are always inseparable. No matter how quick the first step is, there is no guarantee that you can beat the opponent every time. At this time, change of direction is the key.

The type of change of direction that Grover wanted Lin Ying to train was a drag step similar to DeLong's.

The drag step was not invented by DeLong. It is actually a more advanced version of the hesitation step, which essentially focuses on rhythm.

The reason why Grover chose this position is also very simple. Lin Ying is tall and it is difficult to change directions and pursue extreme speed.

But precisely because of the height, the range of changes in direction is large, and it is easy to surpass others as long as you catch the rhythm.

In history, Durant also used the iconic drag step to change direction, which was very lethal.

Let’s talk about the second technique, the emergency stop jump shot.

Like the first step of breakthrough, this is also a very basic but very detailed training.

How detailed can a pull-up jump shot be?

Are you doing a "12-step" (one foot lands first) or a Hop step? Do you take one step or two before stopping to take the ball?

These differences will make the focus of this technology different.

Even if the ball is stopped and there is no chance to make a shot, it needs to be followed by subsequent steps such as turning back, stepping up and down, etc.

So you can understand why Grover first helped Lin Ying train these two skills, because this was to patch Lin Ying.

Lin Ying strengthens the first step. He can get past the initial defender. At this time, if the opponent shrinks to the basket, Lin Ying can use a pull-up jump shot to solve the problem. On the contrary, if someone comes to help defend, or the timing of the pull-up jump shot is not good,

Good, Lin Ying can continue to follow the steps he already had.

Before the evening training was over, Swift appeared at the door with a smile on his face.

But he was not alone, with Selena and Bieber behind him.

Moreover, she did not interrupt Lin Ying's training when she came in. Instead, she quietly took the other two people to the sidelines and watched Lin Ying train.

In the end, Lin Ying felt embarrassed by the three people and had to suspend training with Grover.

"Is it over?"

Swift was looking at it seriously and asked in surprise.

Lin Ying nodded. It felt so strange to be surrounded by three big stars while training.

But he certainly can’t express his true feelings!

"Maybe I'm a little too tired today. Training depends on your physical condition."

He made up a random reason.

When Grover heard this, he gave Lin Ying an expression of "It's okay, kid", and then said that he had to go back beforehand.

"So you came to see me?"

Lin Ying actually still didn't know why Swift was here.

Hearing Lin Ying's question, Swift immediately became excited, made an "Autobot departure" gesture, and then stated her purpose:

"shop!"

Shopping is really shopping.

Or to use Internet slang that will become more popular in the future, it’s just shopping in gai!

When they set off in the sports car, Swift was riding in the back seat and kept shouting excitedly.

Lin Ying: Is shopping really that happy?

But when they really got to the street, Lin Ying discovered that Swift's personality was really different.

She doesn't like to go to cosmetics, bag or clothing stores. Her favorites are antique stores and furniture stores!

So Lin Ying suddenly discovered that going shopping with her wasn't so boring after all.

Especially antiques, men really like the things themselves.

Then it’s crazy buying, buying, buying!

Fortunately they brought a driver, otherwise Lin Ying and Bieber would have to be used as accessories.

When they were tired of shopping, Swift led the others towards the cake shop.

And what surprised Lin Ying again was that Swift did not come to buy cakes, but to make cakes!

Accidents always come one after another.

But this completely unexpected development is very interesting.

It was at this time that Lin Ying discovered that Swift could really make cakes, and she was very good at it.

Therefore, Swift not only likes to play, but is also willing to invest a lot of energy in the things she likes.

Lin Ying even noticed that Swift was very quiet and serious when making cakes, completely different from before the concert.

It's like, there are two personalities.

Master Taylor worked for several hours and finally made a beautiful cake before he succeeded in starving the three of them to death.

And they are all exquisite little cakes, one for each person. They are very beautiful, like works of art.

Lin Ying was a little reluctant to take the plunge.

But in the end hunger defeated the appreciation of the art.

I took a bite and it tasted great.

Lin Ying seriously suspected that Swift starved them like this on purpose.

After all, anything you eat when you are hungry is delicious!

But seeing Swift gobbling it up, with butter on the corners of her mouth, Lin Ying couldn't help laughing.

After Swift noticed Lin Ying's gaze, she also smiled sillyly at him and even made a gesture.

You really don’t look like a big star at all!
