NBA: Yao Ming at his peak returns to his rookie season

Yao Ming changed into his training t-shirt and basketball shoes in the locker room.

Normally, training shoes should be a size larger to avoid injury. However, due to Yao Ming's shoe size, he doesn't have suitable training shoes yet and has to make do with the shoes he wears in games for now.

The training plan that Coach Tang prepared for Yao Ming consisted of basic physical conditioning exercises.

This is also why many Houston fans have speculated that Coach Tomjanovich doesn't like Yao Ming.

Of course, as someone who has experienced it, Yao Ming is very clear that Coach Tomjanovich not only doesn't dislike Yao Ming, but on the contrary, he values ​​Yao Ming quite a lot.

A thorough warm-up and fitness program.

Coach Tang has already obtained Yao Ming's basic data for today.

Yao Ming's stats are updated daily by Coach Tang.

Even though Tang Shuai's health is not as good now, this has never stopped.

40-yard sprint, 100-yard shuttle run, 1/3 short sprint, bench press, and tensile exercises.

Yao Ming, who had just finished a long training session, was covered in sweat.

My short sleeves were completely soaked.

The current environment within the Rockets is not welcoming to Yao Ming. Apart from Francis, no one else has much goodwill towards him.

But everyone admires his training attitude.

I've never seen anyone join the NBA and work this hard.

After all, it's just training.

No matter how well he performs, we won't let him score on the court!

This is what the team's backup center, Morris, said to Yao Ming.

After six consecutive games with a cold shooting night, Morris has made Yao Ming his number one enemy.

「40码全速5.62、100码冲刺跑12.75、启动速度6.9码每秒、垂直弹跳49厘米、助跑55厘米21.7英寸，卧推120公斤5次！」

Looking at Yao Ming's updated stats for today, Tomjanovich's eyes lit up.

Yao Ming is a giant who is 226 centimeters tall.

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for his average stats to be slightly lower than those of players in the same position, even Shaquille O'Neal.

Under the same training environment.

If Yao Ming can achieve a professional-level physical evaluation, it would indicate that he has the potential to become a top-tier center.

Tang Shuai found a physical therapist to relax Yao Ming's muscles.

"Yao, you have great physical attributes, but you're not a guard. What you need more right now is stamina and creating more consistent shooting space. Don't overuse your talent."

Yao Ming's performance was a pleasant surprise.

But Tang Shuai was not satisfied.

To put it bluntly, Yao Ming isn't the kind of NBA star who relies on physical attributes. His overall physical training has improved by 20% compared to the last time. From Coach Tomjanovich's perspective, it can only be said that Yao Ming was still influenced by Charles Barkley's big mouth.

While receiving a massage, Yao also performed flexibility stretches.

Both can be considered as sharpening the axe before chopping wood.

"I understand, Coach, but my body can still adapt. In fact, I feel like I'm in very good shape today."

Tang Shuai sighed. They had all been young before, and he assumed Yao Ming was just putting on a brave face.

however.

Yao Ming, who was receiving a massage, was truly speechless.

My health is so good now.

After gaining weight, Yao Ming's average stats plummeted except for his bench press, which increased to over 150 kg. This resulted in a significant decline in his rebounding ability and interior defense, as his explosiveness and mobility decreased.

Now that he's regained his youthful body, Yao Ming has inadvertently let loose a little.

This is far from Yao Ming's current limit.

He's serious; he can challenge himself to improve his training stats significantly, perhaps even reaching the level of a guard.

My body feels so light and agile without gaining weight.

Yao Ming received a 20-minute massage and simultaneously underwent 20 minutes of flexibility training.

Then came the shower and lunch.

The team also covers the cost of meals at this stadium, so when Yao Ming saw broccoli, chicken breast, various fruits, and a small can of milk, he wanted to complain. It's typical of Houston.

That really means saving money wherever possible!

Complaining isn't food for humans; it's a basic quality of every Houston player.

"This is absolutely awful!" Francis sat down next to Yao Ming. "It's worse than my grandma's cooking!"

Francis had a loud voice and showed no respect whatsoever.

But who can blame him for being such a big shot now?

The best shooting guard in the Western Conference right now isn't Steve Nash of the Mavericks, but Steve Francis.

"Yao, have I told you about the food my grandma used to cook? You know, I grew up in the slums. The kids there could only eat as much protein as possible if they wanted to be healthy, so everyone would boil food that was about to rot with water and seasonings..."

Francis swallowed his food painfully while constantly complaining.

Actually, Yao Ming has indeed eaten it.

As two people who had a very good personal relationship, he was the only Rockets teammate invited home by Francis, a decision that Yao Ming regretted for a long time.

He simply couldn't understand how an old man could cook food so badly.

"Let's just grab a bite to eat for now. Once Charles goes to kiss Kenny's ass, I'll treat you to steak in Dallas; the steaks there are amazing!"

"Well?"

Francis felt that Yao Ming had changed.

He's a bit sly now.

After all, Dallas's great steakhouse is located in their team's communal dining room, which is called that, and visiting teams can eat there for free.

He laughed heartily and nudged Yao Ming with his elbow: "Don't worry, I'll have my agent mail Kenny a nice pair of underwear tonight!"

The two were playing around, and Francis was very pleased with Yao Ming's "cheerfulness".

Francis always felt that Yao Ming was too gentle. In the NBA, you should be more aggressive; he has the talent for that!

Two people playing around.

This displeased Morris, who was sitting on the other side eating with a gloomy expression.

If Francis hadn't been there, he would have loudly mocked Yao Ming for overestimating himself, a guy who only played 18 minutes per game and could only get 3.4 points and 5.2 rebounds...

Yao Ming ate the Rockets' lunch again, which could be seen as a way of reminiscing about the past and appreciating the present.

In the afternoon, while he was practicing basic footwork with Francis, Coach Tomjanovich suddenly announced that they were going to have an intra-team training scrimmage.

No one was surprised.

After all, Coach Tomás really likes to use these kinds of surprise attacks in his training.

But at that moment, Yao Ming suddenly experienced a blurring in front of his eyes.

A game panel-like interface pops up.

Welcome to the NBA, activate the kill system!

Every challenge is a stepping stone to greater strength.

I came, I saw, I conquered.

???

Yao Ming also has some otaku traits. He seems to have been exposed to this kind of online novel before he transmigrated, so he not only transmigrated, but also got a system?

Tang Shuai's team has completed the group assignments.

Da Yao's classic system panel was also updated accordingly.

Internal training is about to begin.
