you are all star

Chapter 273

In the game against his former club, Neil played a total of 6 minutes, scored [-] points, [-] rebounds and [-] assists. He only took [-] shots, including [-]-pointers for [-]-[-], [-]-pointers for [-]-[-], and a very high shooting percentage. What people remember may be the three-pointer that directly killed the game when he received a pass from Garnett at a critical moment.

After the game, Neil had the honor to be interviewed.

"Neil, you play well. Why do many fans outside call you——Parallel importer Tanhua?"

"Let me make a statement first. In fact, I am not good at myself. The reason why such nicknames appear outside, I think it is due to prejudice?"

"bias?"

Neil nodded slightly and smiled.

"Then when you come to Minneapolis Timberwolves, what are your requirements for yourself, what are your plans for basketball and the future, and what are your expectations for the team?"

"The requirements and plans for myself are to play more efficiently in the limited playing time, perform better on both ends of the offense and defense, and help the team win; as for the expectations of the team, don't play me any longer Trading, because these two or three years, I'm really tired of wandering, and I'm home everywhere, but I don't know where my home is."

"Okay, I hope your voice can reach the boss's ears, and I hope you will present us with more exciting moments. Come on, I wish you good luck!"

"Thanks!"

It took four teams and four cities to get the chance to play. It was too hard-won and should be cherished.

Therefore, Neal made an impromptu decision to let his parents, coaches, and teammates go back first. He wanted to stay alone in the Target Center Arena for a while.

The parents stared at their son for a while, didn't say much, quietly and silently gave him a hug and a kiss, and then said only one sentence: "Son, be careful, as long as you think it's right in your heart, you should Do that, then you go for it, and we’ll always have your back.”

Neil looked up at the sky above the arena, nodded slightly, and walked to the seat where he was sitting with heavy and weak steps. His parents' eyes were focused on him, and they didn't move away until he found a seat to sit down. From his son's actions and eyes, he could see a kind of optimism, strength and persistence, but he didn't know whether this kind of optimism, strength and persistence could tie his broken wings and let him fly freely and gracefully in the arena again. , They firmly believe in their hearts that it must be possible, because there is nothing in this world that is impossible for optimism, strength and courage.

When everyone in the arena has left, only the desolation and desolation of the end of the song are left.

Neil just likes this kind of feeling. He feels very quiet, without disturbance, without hustle and bustle. Every time he takes a step forward or back, he can clearly hear his footsteps, and he can hear the echo when he howls casually. And every time you dribble, every time you shoot, you can clearly hear "boom...", "crack...", "boom...", the sound is so clear and sweet, I really like that sound, just like the same song Healing music.

Neil recalled that he used to play alone in the arena or on the court, and occasionally wanted to give up, so he actively hinted to himself: "You really just gave up like that? Listen to how nice the sound is!"

Self-encouragement, after some hints, he dribbled the ball and continued.

When Neil thought of this, he went to the sidelines and picked up a basketball, and then used the stopwatch to time it. Then, he dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt, made a complete shot, and then dribbled the ball from the frontcourt to the backcourt, and made another shot. A complete shot, see how long it takes.

After a back and forth round, he checked the time and found that it took 26 seconds. He felt hesitant and should speed up a bit. It is best to complete it in about 20 seconds.

Every time he finished a test, he would record the time, and finally counted it out to calculate the average.

Neil repeatedly dribbled and advanced, and then shot quickly, and the shots were counted three times, one for the mid-range two-pointer, one for the breakthrough layup, and one for the three-pointer, because the three times took different time. The three-pointer must be two to three seconds late, and the layup must be two to three seconds late, and the two-pointer is in the middle.

After spending more than two hours, Neil finally counted the areas where the three indicators are relatively concentrated. Among them, the average time for three-point round trips is about 16 seconds, the average time for mid-range shots is about 18 seconds, and the average time for breakthrough layups is about 20 seconds.

The reason why he wants to count the time-consuming of the three indicators is to test his moving speed and athletic ability.

After completing this target, he practiced free throws again. He took 25 shots as a group and shot three times. The goal he set for himself was 25 of [-], or a little higher than this. cast.

He went on again and again. After finishing the first group of shots, he made 23 shots, which was two goals short and did not meet the standard.

Without further ado, he picked up the ball and started to play again, but the second time was even worse than the first time. He only hit [-] balls. He swung his arm. He immediately shook his head and shook it back, because he suddenly realized that people cannot be tolerated, let alone those who pamper themselves, and those who pamper themselves, their future must be full of thorns.

Even though his waist is sore and his back hurts, his body is weak, and he can't jump anymore, but when he thinks about his current situation, he suddenly feels full of strength, picks up the ball and continues to make free throws from scratch.

With the increase in the number of shots, his hands gradually warmed up, and his hit rate went up. He hit more than 25 goals in three consecutive sets.

He laughed, but he was so tired that he sat on the ground paralyzed, feeling powerless, and would groan even if he moved slightly, which was extremely pitiful.

After he breathed a few breaths, he looked at the time. It was already late at night. He looked in the direction of the door, and the security guard had closed the door, because at around nine o'clock in the evening, the security guard had called him several times, and he said , He still wanted to practice for a while, after the security personnel asked him to register, and checked the Timberwolves player files, there was indeed a person like Neil, so he kept Neil in the arena and said to him: "If you want to Go home, remember to tell us, we will let you out, but if it is too late, we will not open the door again."

Neil was only thinking about training at the time, and didn't think too much about it, so he replied casually: "Okay!"

He originally thought it would be over in a while, but who knows that time is far faster than water. When he finished, he looked at his watch. It was already late at night, and he knew that he would not be able to go back tonight. He could only stay in the arena overnight, in order not to worry his parents. , sent them a message.

In such a cold day, fortunately there is an air conditioner, otherwise, he would definitely be frozen into a dog.

That night, the arena became his own arena. This is his childhood wish, and now it has finally come true. Just as soon as the sun rises, this place will become everyone's again. Therefore, he feels that he does not Instead of sleeping, I should practice in seclusion and do something for my dreams, because even if I sleep, I don’t have a quilt to cover, and I still feel extremely cold with air conditioning.

In the end, he decided not to sleep and continue training, so that he would not catch a cold, and he could also research more moves in this arena where he was the only one. In the future, he would beat his opponents into dogs.
