Start without the ball

Chapter 1 top moves

At noon on June 2018, 6, in an apartment in Philadelphia, the phone rang~
With his eyes closed, Li Haoyu reached for the cell phone next to his pillow and hung up the phone, ready to continue sleeping, but unexpectedly the phone rang again.

Squinting helplessly, he saw that the caller was Steve Donahue, Li Haoyu's coach in college, and he answered the call.

Donahue: "Hey, Lee, why did you answer the phone? I know the loss was a big blow to you. Don't be sad. Becky Harmon of the Spurs told me a little story. I introduced you to her. She promised you a chance at Summer League!"

Li Haoyu didn't feel sleepy after hearing the summer league, and replied: "Really? That's great! Boss, thank you for helping me connect with the opportunity."

Donahue: "Cheer up! Didn't you just lose the draft? Didn't that Lin also lose the draft and get a contract from the summer league? Stay in good shape and fight for the summer league!"

Li Haoyu: "I understand that although losing the selection is a bit sad, I didn't give up. I contacted a few teams, but they didn't get any answers. Fortunately, with your help, this league still depends on interpersonal relationships."

Knowing that Li Haoyu would go to the summer league, Donahue told the time and hung up the phone.

After Li Haoyu came to the University of Pennsylvania from the Zhejiang Provincial Youth Team, he met this British-born coach.

During the first training, I saw the coach with a thermos, and the next day I went to Donahue with tea. I didn't expect that Donahue fell in love with Dahongpao, and the two became acquainted.

Li Haoyu is 196cm tall and weighs 88KG. He has played at the University of Pennsylvania for four years. He has played 23 games this year, averaging 19.2 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game. His shooting percentage is 46.1%, and his three-point shooting percentage is even higher. 39.2%.

This season led Penn to the top 11 of the NCAA National Championships again after 64 years.

After the end of the season, Li Haoyu participated in the draft, and his performance in the joint training camp was mediocre. In addition, he is already 21 years old, and his potential is far inferior to that of freshman and sophomore players. The data is also played in a weaker league, which is not convincing. , so no one cared about it during the draft, and unfortunately lost.

This is why Donahue cared so much about Li Haoyu, anyone would help his beloved disciple at this juncture.

After Li Haoyu got up and washed, he faced the mirror and thought about how to be appreciated in the summer league.

At the age of 16, you left your parents and came to Philadelphia alone. What was it for?Isn't it just to show yourself on the top stage!Isn't it just a dream, a basketball teenager's dream about the NBA!

However, after going through Waterloo in the draft training camp, Li Haoyu also became clear about his own strength. He is 196cm in the No. 2 position and weighs only 88KG. The confrontation is too disadvantageous, and the defense is easy to become a breakthrough.

In terms of offense, Li Haoyu has a good shot. The offense with the ball cannot get a good shot space due to his physical fitness. The open shot is good, but there are many open players in the league.

"Do you crave power?"

What sound, Li Haoyu looked around and thought there was no one around, thinking he was hallucinating.

"I can give you various abilities, as long as you can accept the training." The voice appeared again.

Li Haoyu silently said in his heart: "Ability?"

"All your abilities make you a legend in the basketball world. Are you willing to accept training?"

"I am willing!" Although I don't know what the situation is, the opportunity to improve myself is right in front of me.

[Ding~ The ball master system is on!The host can enter the system by silently chanting! 】

Li Haoyu hurriedly entered the system, and a light blue interface appeared in front of him:
Host: Li Haoyu
Age: 20 -
physical fitness--
Power: 59
Speed: 74
Bounce: 71——
technical skills---
Dribble: 76
Shots: 83
Passes: 82
Rebounds: 61
Footsteps: 69
Defense: 57 --
special power--
Ball quotient: 94
[Note: The scoring value is based on a 100-point system, and [-] is the limit value of a human player]

[Newbie package to be opened]

Looking at my data, apart from the 94 IQ, the only ones that look good are shooting and passing. The speed is 74, the bounce is 71, which is not bad, but the power of 59 and the defense of 57 are a bit eye-catching.

Li Haoyu opened the novice gift package after seeing his score.

[Ding~ Stay here to open the novice gift package, get 2 choose 1 training mission, and a training assistant as a bonus! 】

Choose one training task:

1. Shooting master: Through training, you will get the top shooting ability.

2. Running Master: Through training, you will get top running skills.

Li Haoyu thought about it, the top shooting skills are indeed very attractive, but his own shooting is not bad, enough for the NBA.

Is there a shortage of shot masters in the league?No shortage!If I choose the shooting master, but have no chance to show my shooting on the court, it will not be the same as it is now.

Could it be that he ran to the coach and said, "Head, you might not believe me, I'm a shooting master!"

Once there are very few shooting opportunities on the court, coupled with his attribute of defending black holes, it is still not enough.

This is a bit interesting as a running master. This is a very hidden attribute, but it plays a vital role on the court. For example, JJ Redick and Abrines both have good shots. Why? Redick can secure the main position, and Abrines can only be a substitute?
Physical condition is part of the reason, but the bigger gap lies in the running position. Redick can always use the screen to get good shooting opportunities, while Abrines has a good shot but can't run. Waiting for the ball in the corner.

Now every team has its own ball handler, what is the most missing?Of course, it is off-ball scoring points. If a player does not rely on the ball, but can always get a shot, will the team not like it?
"Start the training mission of running master!" Li Haoyu made up his mind and said silently in his heart.

[The training mission will send the accommodation to a different space, please start under safe conditions! 】

Li Haoyu locked the door of the apartment, drew the curtains and started training.

After entering the mission, Li Haoyu was no longer surrounded by the familiar small apartment, but a basketball court.

"Welcome Master to the training space, I am your training assistant, you can call me Orange Meow"

Li Haoyu followed the voice and looked over, thinking it was a fat orange, but what he saw was a corgi.
Li Haoyu walked over and pinched Ju Meow's fat face and said, "Keji is just Corgi, what is your name Ju Meow, do you think you can be called Meow because you are orange and have a similar body shape?"

"I want to be Meow. Wang is a friend of mankind, and Meow is the master of mankind! In the next life, I will be Meow!"

"It doesn't matter if you are a cat or a dog, first introduce the training mission to me!" Li Haoyu put down the orange meow and asked.

Ju Miao took out a card from somewhere and handed it to Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu looked at the card.

The master's movement can throw off any defender, even the shadow!
Training task 1, please pass the ball to the teammate in the low position at 45 degrees, then get rid of the shadow defender to catch the ball and score, complete 10000 times, failure will be punished

After handing in the card, Tangerine Meow turned Corgi's buttocks and ran to the sidelines, put on sunglasses and lay on the lounge chair, feeling very comfortable!Holding a support sign in his hand: "Master, come on, you are the fattest (bang) (_)!"

"You're the fattest one." Li Haoyu returned his attention to the court after yelling at Orange Meow.

A black figure appeared in front of Li Haoyu, and the Clippers team logo and the number 21 could be vaguely seen on his chest.

Wait, isn't this Ben Beverly?What about the shadow?
My shadow is not like this!

Tucao return to Tucao, training has to continue.

Li Haoyu came to the left 45 degrees, a basketball appeared in his hand, and his teammates and defenders appeared in the low post.

Beverly was one step away from Li Haoyu. Li Haoyu passed the ball to the low post and immediately accelerated to the basket.

But this Beverly has always been by his side, and his teammates in the low post cannot pass the ball.

The movement failed this time, and before Li Haoyu had time to react, he suddenly felt pain like being pricked by countless needles all over his body, which lasted for 5 seconds. After the punishment was over, Li Haoyu realized that it was an electric shock!

"This system was developed by Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning?" He asked Ju Miao after the numbness on his body subsided after the electric shock.

Ju Meow hesitated for a moment and said: "Punishment is a choice between electric shock and hair loss. In order to take care of the master's handsomeness, I chose electric shock on my own initiative."

This task alone has to be completed 10000 times. This shadow Beverly is really hard to get rid of, and I don't know how many times I will fail.

After completing the whole training, even if you don’t lose your bald head, it’s not too far away. Although the electric shock hurts a bit, it’s over after 5 seconds of endurance. Li Haoyu didn’t change the punishment.

"Master, you were too far away from the shadow when you started it, and he can keep up with it no matter how fast you start it!" Ju Miao explained to Li Haoyu the reason for the failure just now.

After understanding, Li Haoyu came to 45 degrees again.

This time, instead of passing the ball directly to the low post, he first made a fake shot.

Shadow Beverly took a step forward, at this time Li Haoyu passed the ball to the low post and immediately ran to the basket.

Because Beverly and Li Haoyu moved in opposite directions, it was too late for Beverly to react.

Li Haoyu successfully scored after receiving a pass from a low-post teammate!

1/10000, Jumiao held up a counting board on the sidelines.

Li Haoyu returned to the flank, this time Beverly was half a step in front of Li Haoyu, this is a distance that Li Haoyu can interfere without stepping forward as long as he dares to make a move.

Li Haoyu's fake shot did not deceive Beverly at all, and cut to the basket after passing the ball, but this time the shadow Beverly followed Li Haoyu tightly, and could only suffer another electric shock.

"Master, you have to find the ever-changing opportunities on the field, and air cuts will be effective at the right time! Brainless air cuts will only bring more burden to the ball holder." Ju Miao made another suggestion.

"Is it an ever-changing opportunity? I seem to understand something."

After Li Haoyu came to 45 degrees, he was not in a hurry this time. It would be meaningless if the purpose was exposed. He also made a fake shot first, but the shadow was still unmoved. At this time, Li Haoyu passed the ball to the low post, and there was no Anxious to move, observing patiently.

Seeing that Li Haoyu didn't make any moves, the shadow turned back to look at the low position, good opportunity!Li Haoyu kicked the ground fiercely and cut to the basket. When Beverly found out, Li Haoyu had already caught the ball and made a layup.

"That's it Meow! 2/10000."

After a long time, Li Haoyu continued to try and make mistakes. After being shocked by the electric shock, he gradually found the way. After completing the 200th air cut, he lay down on the ground and had no physical strength.

"Orange Miao, how long has it been?" Asked after taking the water from Ju Miao's mouth.

"It's been 5 hours. By the way, master, are you really a man who has trained for 5 hours without eating?" Jumiao replied while eating small dried fish.

"Wait for me to come back" After saying that, Li Haoyu exited the space and looked at his phone. It has been 5 hours since Li Haoyu got up to wash up.

It seems that the training space and real time are synchronized, and the summer league will be played on July 7th, it seems that we must hurry up.

After eating casually, after digesting, Li Haoyu entered the training space again.
