knife point guard

Chapter 5 [I should give this child a chance]

McNamara is more professional than Suzy. He arranged a lot of cones on the court. After warming up, he began to shuttle through the cones, sometimes speeding up, sometimes changing directions... dazzled.

His dribble is simple and clean.

Cutting routes are swift.

Su Xi watched for a long time, and he said to McNamara: "Is this your training method? I want to learn."

He is direct.

This kind of directness surprised McNamara. He was thinking: Are people in New York State so direct?

No.

Just Suzy.

Su Xi's mentality is different from normal people. He believes that he is already a "quasi-basketball god" and will win the NBA championship within five years.Therefore, you must not waste time on basketball affairs. If you have anything, just say it directly, the more efficient the better.

"of course can."

McNamara rehearsed it for Su Xi. This is a simplified way of changing direction and assault. Su Xi didn't learn it very smoothly at first.Because he has always played with people who are physically stronger than himself, he must use complicated skills to find space, and he is not very good at subtraction.

McNamara watched and shook his head.

But he is a devout Catholic, and he goes to church every week.Arrogance is not in his personality.He patiently taught Su Xi some details.

Suzy's training is getting better and better.

McNamara's teaching style is better than that of Syracuse's assistant coaches. Of course, this is because Syracuse's assistant coaches will not focus on Suzy.

After practicing for about half an hour, Su Xi was meticulous and practiced patiently over and over again.

McNamara has already seen that his teammate's level is relatively average, his speed is average, and his explosive power is medium. He is probably a marginal player on the team.

Moreover, physical fitness does not seem to be very good.

After practicing for half an hour, he sat on the sidelines to rest again.

But after a while, he stood up energetically.

"Let's go heads-up."

kindness?
McNamara froze, thinking to himself: One-on-one with me?One-on-one with the best scoring player in all Pennsylvania high school basketball?are you sure?

"Yes, that's right. You're a good player. If you can beat me, maybe you can join the Orange team. You deserve that chance." Suzy said to him, "I can see that you're a good guy."

Su Xi praised the suddenness.

McNamara has never been issued such a good guy card.

But he does.

Affirmation from strangers who don't know him can make him feel more happy than someone who flatters him because of his name.

The heads-up began.

Suzy let McNamara tee off first.

McNamara deserves to be the top scorer in high school basketball. He pressed down suddenly in front of Su Xi. His rapid change of center of gravity caused Su Xi's defensive center of gravity to be involved.Immediately, he accelerated suddenly, and his above-average explosive power instantly cut Su Xi's defense.

Su Xi turned around and chased, and McNamara had already completed a jumper at the free throw line.

Swish, hit.

McNamara has a textbook shot.

Su Xi looked at McNamara in surprise, with an expression of sincere joy on his face, because the moment McNamara flashed away from him, he felt that Reggie's explosive talent left in him was also excited, and there were faint signs of breakthrough integration.

He hastened to wake up the elf.

Pixie then read McNabara's talent.

Elite speed talent.

Elite agility talent.

Excellent coordination talent.

Excellent physical talent.

Excellent jumping talent.

Excellent flexibility talent.

Elite strength talent.

Elite explosive talent.

The elf said: "This opponent's explosive power is stronger than your current fusion explosive power, so when he activates instantly, it accelerates your fusion. You can train with him non-stop."

"Defend him, feel his strength, and you will accelerate your integration."

Su Xi was overjoyed by the elf's explanation.

When the elf fell asleep.

He smiled at McNamara, and he gave a thumbs up. "Very good, come again!"

Ok?
McNamara thought that Su Xi would retreat, and this goal was enough for him to see the huge gap between the two.

However, he actually gave himself another thumbs up and said he would continue.

McNamara thought Suzy was hilarious.

He gave the ball to Su Xi and said, "Let me see your offensive strength."

Suzy passed the ball back to McNamara: "No. You keep attacking, and I'll defend you."

Ok?
McNamara's brain circuit was a little blocked again, and he thought to himself: What's wrong with this handsome guy?He likes to be blown up by me?
McNamara received the ball and he continued to attack.

It was still a light temptation, and then he flashed away quickly. His explosive power was much stronger than Su Xi. After all, he was Mr. Basketball in Pennsylvania.

But the moment McNamara passed Su Xi, Su Xi felt a real beating: his explosive talent fusion increased from 60% to 61%.

Improving a little directly.

Su Xi was very happy, he chased up quickly, and this time his pursuit speed also increased a little.He chased into the paint, but couldn't stop McNamara from changing hands for a layup.

After McNamara scored, he looked at Su Xi on the ground, he raised his eyebrows, and he wanted Su Xi to retreat.

However, what he saw was still a pure and joyful smiling face, and Su Xi gave a thumbs up: "You are awesome, come again!"

Su Xi praised from the bottom of her heart.

This is a compliment that McNamara has not received for many years. In the past, when he passed his opponent, all he saw was the expression of frustration or even resentment from his opponent.

But now, Su Xi is so innocent.

McNamara thought in his head: This guy is a bad player, but he is a true child of God, with a big heart and a baby-like innocence.

So, he decided to continue to fight this guy one-on-one.

Su Xi still couldn't defend him, but every time he would sincerely praise McNamara, never frustrated, never lost his temper.McNamara has never seen this type of player, Suzy is so genuine, friendly, hardworking and giving it his all.

Other than his bad game, he was a perfect guy.

Moreover, McNamara found that this handsome boy's defense is improving, his judgment on the ball path is correct, and his reaction speed is getting faster.

The two practiced against each other for half an hour.

Su Xi's explosive force value increased from 60% to 63%, which made Su Xi ecstatic, and he hadn't improved for a long time.

Suzy, however, was a bit tired and said to McNamara: "Ten minutes and we'll move on, shall we?"

McNamara pointed at Su Xi, who was out of breath: "You are so tired, can you rest for 10 minutes?"

"Yes!" Su Xi replied firmly.

Su Xi was struck by lightning once for a full 23 minutes, and she was in agony.However, he also became more energetic and clear-headed.The important thing is that his 'recovery' is very fast.Although his physical fitness is weak, he can recover quickly as long as he sits there and rests for ten minutes.Of course, the most important thing is that Crazy Thunderstorm and Lightning has changed his temperament, he has become very popular with girls, women like to stay with him, and they say that he has a special smell...very attractive.

McNamara sat next to him.Ask him, "Are you on Team Orange?"

"Yes." Su Xi replied: "However, my level is the worst in the Orange team. I came in through the back door."

Su Xi was very frank, and he also said to McNamara: "If you ignore the strength of the official players of the Orange team because of me, it is a big mistake."

McNamara smiled.He then asked Su Xi: "I heard that the greatest player in the history of the Orange team is Reggie Wilms. How do you think my strength compares to him?"

Mention Reggie Weems.

Su Xi was silent for a while, and he didn't hide it: "I was recruited by Reggie Weems with his privilege."

"I'm sorry." McNamara patted Su Xi's shoulder with his hand.

"Although some words from my mouth are not objective. But one thing is clear, Reggie's physical fitness is much, much stronger than yours." Su Xi said.

Su Xi has already found out: McNamara's explosive power is about 78%, using Reggie Weems as a reference.

The elf has also just verified his body, and McNamara's explosive power is only at the elite level.In the Elf's basketball system, there are excellent players above the elite, top players above the excellent players, and super players above the top players.It's three levels down.

McNamara shrugged. He didn't deny it. "Reggie's physical fitness is really strong, which is why he was the biggest favorite with the first pick before."

McNamara was a little sad.

He's white, and the saddest thing about him is his physical ceiling.He knows that with his skills and shooting level, there is no problem in vertical and horizontal high school basketball.Entering the NCAA can also become a star, but the NBA will not easily give him a ticket.Because the NBA has very high requirements for physical fitness, a large number of people have been wiped out without physical talent.

Just like now, McNamara suddenly felt empathy for Su Xi.

Suzy faced him like he faced the NBA.

However, what he didn't know was.In theory, Suzy has a better chance of making it to the NBA than he does.

After resting for about 10 minutes, Su Xi stood up: "Let's continue."

McNamara was a little surprised: "Have you rested?"

Su Xi did two squats: "There is no problem at all."

McNamara felt that Su Xi was simply a monster, and this recovery ability was terrible.Obviously he was out of breath just now.

Their duel continues.

McNamara is very focused on offense, Suzy puts [-] percent of his energy on defense, he goes all out.

Played for another half an hour.

Although Su Xi's explosive talent only increased to 64%, Su Xi interfered with McNamara on the last ball, and McNamara's layup was destroyed by Su Xi.

McNamara was tired, he was a white linebacker, and he didn't have enough reserves.

"Okay, let's stop here today."

McNamara to Suzy.

Su Xi was a little reluctant, but he continued: "Are you still coming tomorrow? I still want to challenge you one-on-one. If you can't do it here, you can go to the outdoor basketball court."

Suzy is sincere.

McNamara replied with a smile: "If there are no accidents, I will come every day. Nice to meet, my name is Gerry McNamara."

"Me too. My name is Suzy, Jack Sue!"

Su Xi stretched out her hand, shook hands with McNamara and bumped her chest. Although it was only the first day they met, the seeds of friendship were already sprouting.

Head coach Jim Boham is sitting in the upper office of the arena, holding a cup of coffee and watching the whole process of training in the arena below.He started to focus here from the first ball of Suzy and McNamara singled out.

This is a unique trial training.

Coach Jim is very satisfied with McNamara's control of the offense. He likes McNamara's textbook-like shots.

However, at the back, he couldn't help admiring Su Xi who had been trying his best to defend.

Suzy is a supporting role in this duel, even a bit of a buffoon, because he can't defend at all.

However, he brought a 'Don Quixote' feel to Boeham, who he admired for a warrior who kept attacking.

He was moved by Su Xi's tenacity.

Moreover, he saw Su Xi's progress.

Su Xi has made a lot of progress. His judgment of the defensive ball and his tracking after losing his position are all improving.

"As expected of a young man who refuses even the confession of beautiful women."

"I should give this kid a chance."

"After all, apart from me, I have never seen such a pure and simple boy who loves basketball."
