Chapter 53 Preseason 1

Author: Feng Yuanhua

With only half an hour, Gary Payton would definitely not be able to teach Wang Hao every detail.

He was just pointing out the flaws in Wang Hao's defense.

As for the basic skills of defense or the prediction of offensive players, Wang Hao needs to do this himself.

Basic skills require repeated practice, and defensive prediction requires experience. These things can be rushed in a short time.

Fortunately, as long as there is Gary Payton's guidance and systematic acceleration effects on basic skills, the progress will be obvious.

As for defensive experience, with the words and deeds of Gary Payton, there will be considerable improvement after just a few more games.

Study object: Gary Payton (96)

Matching degree: 50%

Learning skills: Defensive awareness (1% progress) (50% acceleration) (100% acceleration)

After all, Gary Payton is one of today's superstars, and his learning efficiency is quite obvious.

It is at least 4.5 times that of Wang Hao's normal training, which is the most obvious bonus in his history.

The only problem is that the progress is a bit slow. This whole day of training, coupled with Gary Payton's guidance, has only made 1% progress.

The reason is also very simple. The gap between Gary Payton and Wang Hao is a bit big, especially on defense.

Just like when Wang Hao first entered St. John's University, it was the same.

Although he is making progress every day, his progress in learning from Artest is extremely slow.

Because the gap between the two is quite big, there is a lot to learn.

Although the progress is slow, Wang Hao's defensive strength is increasing visibly.

Not only Wang Hao felt it, but other members of the Sonics also saw it, and everyone expressed shock.

Gary Payton was also reluctant from the beginning and somewhat involved, and in recent days he has unconsciously extended the time.

The originally agreed half hour was directly extended to one hour.

Wang Hao was a little uneasy. He always felt that this cuckold might have appeared earlier because of him?

For the sake of Gary Payton's guidance, he also talked about Gary Payton's family and Vernon Maxwell in a very vague way.

I don’t know if it was too subtle, or if Gary Payton really believed in them, and he didn’t react at all.

There was no way, Wang Hao couldn't have said it more clearly.

Moreover, he is an outsider in this kind of matter, so-called alienated and not close, so he cannot participate in it.

What's more, as a superstar in the NBA, Gary Payton is not looking for women outside?

"Wang, your confrontation skills are indeed a little bit worse! However, I don't recommend that you increase confrontation this year.

The new season is about to start, and gaining weight at this time is not a good choice.

If you increase your weight too little, the effect will not be obvious, but if you increase your weight too much, it will definitely affect your feel and speed."

Gary Payton's advice is very sincere, and as a veteran, his words are still very convincing.

"I know, Gary."

"Well, get some rest early. Tomorrow is the preseason game. I'm also looking forward to your performance."

"Don't worry, I won't let you down. After all, I have received guidance from Gary Payton."

"Yes, then let us use defense to crush that eagle!"

Wang Hao did not practice any more today because tomorrow is the first game of the preseason and it is the home court of the SuperSonics.

It is quite important for him to make his home appearance. After all, he needs to be recognized by the fans.

Before going to bed, he was also thinking about gaining weight. With a system in place, he was not worried about how it would affect his hand feel.

But there is a very serious problem, that is, as the confrontation increases, the speed will inevitably be affected.

If Wang Hao really gains weight, he will really develop in the direction of a 3D player, at most a large version of Gary Payton.

In the future, there will be another low post shot like this.

However, this is obviously not Wang Hao's goal, because he knows that his athletic talent can still be improved.

He still hopes to increase his speed and then enhance his ability to attack with the ball. As a player, who doesn't want to be as elegant as Jordan?

October 20, 1999.

There is a game in the evening, so there is only one training session today, which is mainly about tactical drills.

This is also a necessary content for the team every season, after all, new people join every season.

Compared with official NBA games, the only thing missing is the arrangement for the opponent.

In preseason, this isn't necessary.

The reason is very simple. Preseason games are mainly about practicing tactics and allowing players to get back into shape.

As the main player of the team, he won't play too much time, which is more than 20 minutes.

In the rest of the time, the coach also needs to inspect the new players to integrate them into the team.

Today, the SuperSonics' opponent is the Atlanta Hawks.

Today's Atlanta Hawks still have Mutombo at their core, but he is over 33 years old after all.

Moreover, the official age is 33 years old, but he probably doesn’t even know his real age.

Speaking of today's Eagles, there are two players that Wang Hao pays more attention to.

One of them is this year's No. 10 pick Jason Terry, the future Super Sixth Man, Jason Terry of the Jets.

The other one is Isiah Leder. Even in the NBA where all kinds of weirdos gather, this is a rare thorn in the side.

From the moment he first entered the league, Isaiah Lederer's career can be described in four words: full of misdeeds.

He has numerous off-field misdeeds and long-term violations of training disciplines, including being late, absent from training without excuse, and missing the team's plane.

He also spits at fans and airport staff and attacks others for various weird reasons.

As for hiding marijuana, it's a piece of cake.

You know, even the Portland Trail Blazers, known as the NBA's prison team, chose to trade him. In fact, the bad records are evident.

He entered the league as the fifth overall pick and was named to the All-Rookie First Team in his first season.

This is definitely a player full of talent, but he retired sadly after only playing in the NBA for 9 seasons.

It's a pity that Wang Hao saw Jason Terry today, but not Isaiah Ryder.

No need to guess, this guy must have been punished by the team for being late for the training session.

Today, the Eagles still foolishly believe that they can regulate Isaiah Lederer's behavior as long as they strictly manage.

At this time, the Key Arena was already buzzing with people, and they were full of expectations for the team's new season.

Although it is a preseason game, the attendance rate in the Key Arena is not low, with more than half of the seats occupied.

Of course, this is also because preseason tickets are cheaper.

"Beep!"

With the referee's whistle, Wang Hao's attention was drawn back to the court and the game began.

Today, Wang Hao appeared on the bench.

To be honest, I am still a little disappointed. After all, he has performed very well during this period, but he has not been in the starting lineup.

Not only him, but also young people such as Ruben Patterson and Rashard Lewis have no chance to start.
