Basketball trainer, I created a super giant

Chapter 39 Draft
Putting down the newspaper, Tang Sen crossed his arms and fell into deep thought.

Let's assume that these two rules will be introduced.

Because judging from media reports, the NBA is not playing tricks.

The wind has been blowing for so long, it can't be groundless.

Tangsen needs to think about how players like Brown will be affected and how they can survive under the new rules, and then perform better under the new rules.

"Physical fitness."

The first thing Tang Sen thought of was physical fitness.

With the three-second defense, you can no longer stay near the basket all the time. You have to constantly go in and out of the restricted area. Not only does your rim protection efficiency decrease, but it also invisibly increases your physical consumption.

In addition, there is a zone defense, which requires more movement to fill in the position.

So you can't not run.

Now that Brown has gained weight, his athletic ability has not changed, but his physical fitness has declined.

It is really necessary for me to add some physical training to improve his physical strength.

“And shooting.”

Tang Sen thought of something else.

The emergence of the defensive three seconds forces inside players to stay away from the basket, so the number of low-post singles like before will definitely decrease.

Add to that the zone defense and there's no space left.

There is no doubt that Brown's current style of play, which relies on confrontation to gain position, then singles to occupy a favorable position, and then hook shots will definitely be weakened.

At this time, the importance of shooting is reflected.

So Brown must have a good enough mid-range shot to be able to pull it out.

If he can also handle the ball facing the basket, both inside and outside, that would be perfect.

Thinking about it this way, Tang Sen suddenly felt that if the rules were changed in this way, then players like Garnett and Nowitzki who can attack with the ball facing the basket and make mid-range shots would be strengthened.

Tang Sen took a deep breath.

After thinking about it this way, I have to start my training plan all over again.

For example, the defense that we are focusing on improving now.

The previous training plan mainly focused on improving lower limb strength.

The goal is clear, which is to strengthen Brown's defensive ability.

The goal is to be able to defend heavy centers like O'Neal in the future.

Now, top defense is definitely still important, but you can't just rely on top defense.

With zone defense and three-second defense, you need to have a larger range of movement and be aware of filling in at any time.

This places higher demands on inside players.

When it comes to training, the number of training subjects must be increased.

Fortunately, there is a draft coming up, so I still have time to adjust.

Tang Sen circled several key points such as defensive awareness and movement speed, set goals, adjusted the training plan, and started simulation.

Logically speaking, if you want to improve your physical fitness, especially your endurance for long-term exercise, you should focus on practicing some aerobic long-distance running events.

But when it comes to basketball, Tang Sen knows that this is not the case.

Some scientific research papers have done analysis.

Basketball is a high-intensity intermittent exercise that combines anaerobic and aerobic exercise.

Some papers even conducted statistical analysis of the data.

For example, if you do anaerobic exercises such as fast running, changing steps, and sliding for 10 seconds, you will have 36 seconds to jog, walk, or stand with your hands on your hips and watch on the court.

The latter is obviously aerobic exercise.

And obviously, your ability to walk around the court and put your hands on your hips is no different from Jordan's.

If you want to improve your performance on the court, the key is to repeatedly complete ten seconds of intense anaerobic exercise.

Therefore, the priority training is the sprint running of the short play.

When I really have extra time, I will consider aerobic long-distance running.

Tang Sen feels that the existing training programs need to be adjusted as a whole.

That is to say, on the basis of ensuring the existing athletic ability, the focus of training is changed from strength confrontation to speed.

From stillness to movement.

Therefore, Tang Sen added a lot of training items such as sprint running, weighted sprint running, explosive sprint running, etc. to his training plan.

Judging from the simulation results, the effect is good.

Brown is agile enough, and his speed is not slow whether he is moving sideways or turning.

He has a talent for it.

“Also bullet speed and shot blocking.”

Tang Sen thought of something else during the simulation.

A lot of backup defense will inevitably require you to have better jumping speed and blocking ability, so that you can jump quickly and complete the interference when defending.

Therefore, Tang Sen added some weighted ladder climbing, single-leg jumping and other training items to the training plan.

With the general direction in mind, the next step is to slowly adjust. And then practice every other day.

One day for body, one day for technique.

The main skills are ball control and shooting.

Looking at his ever-increasing and gradually longer training plan, Tang Sen looked up at Brown who was resting, and couldn't help wondering if his requirements for Brown were too high.

This means that you have to practice everything and master everything.

He is only 19 and has just entered the league. He needs to be given enough time to develop slowly.

But then I thought, I have a system.

With my current training bonus, one month may be equivalent to the normal three to six months of training results.

The new season starts in July and ends in October, a total of three months.

If used well, Brown would have trained for the equivalent of one to one and a half years.

And it's not even during the season, it's the real off-season, full-hearted training.

This is directly equivalent to him training for three seasons.

So it will definitely be hard work, but the rewards are bound to be huge.

Tang Sen stood up and asked Brown to continue training.

Now we just have to wait for the draft lottery to see which team Brown will end up with.

Once the dust settles, he can focus on training.

time flies.

A day earlier, Tang Sen followed Brown to New York.

His family also rushed to New York to cheer for Brown.

Tang Sen met Joyce again.

She was still enthusiastic. After the hug, she solemnly thanked Tang Sen for his efforts for Brown over the past few days.

"He always talks about you now, saying how strong he became under your training. He also said that you taught him a lot of things off the court and made him understand a lot. Tang, really, thank you!"

Joyce looked at him tenderly and opened his arms to hug Tang Sen again.

Brown was still a child when she and her husband divorced.

Although he has several older brothers, the lack of fatherly love still has a great impact on Brown.

Joyce hopes that there will be a mature man in Brown's life who can be his role model and tell him how to walk the path of life.

Previously, that person was Ryan Williams.

And now, Tang Sen is slowly becoming this role.

Tangsen has experienced glory and setbacks. These life experiences are enough to guide Brown on how to move forward in the face of setbacks.

"Don't worry Joyce, I will help him."

Tang Sen knew what Joyce wanted to say.

The next afternoon, the group dressed up and set off for Madison Square Garden.

During his college years, Tang Sen dreamed of coming here.

I didn't expect that after so many years, I would appear here in a different identity.

Looking at the crowds of reporters, the magnificent theater, and the gorgeous red carpet, I was filled with nothing but emotion.

Brown was like the focus, his appearance immediately attracted all attention.

He stayed in the press interview area, surrounded by reporters in two or three circles, and answered questions shyly.

Connors was by his side, helping him cope.

Tang Sen is still an unknown person, watching in a corner where no one pays attention.

Just then, someone suddenly called his name from behind.

When I turned around, it was Lon Kruger!
"I noticed you from a distance. It really is you."

Kruger walked up with a smile and hugged Tang Sen.

I had actually met him before when I went to the Hawks for a tryout. Tang Sen even went to Kruger's house and had dinner with him.

After the greetings, Kruger looked at Brown, who was the center of everyone's attention, sighed, and said it was a pity.

"What's wrong? Did the Wizards reject you?" Tang Sen asked curiously.

Kruger did not hide it, nodded, and said self-deprecatingly: "There is no way, Jordan's standards are too high, and he doesn't look down on our chips."

As he spoke, his eyes rolled and he whispered mysteriously, "Tang, you guys need to be mentally prepared. The news I heard is that the Wizards will trade their number one pick, but I don't know which team it will be."

Tang Sen was shocked.

Unexpectedly, despite Brown's outstanding performance, he still failed to impress the Wizards.

But that’s fine.

Tang Sen really doesn't think going to the Wizards is a good choice.

If Jordan really returns, the Wizards' focus will only be on Jordan, and they may not have enough energy to train Brown well.
