When Antoine Walker completed a minute of shooting training, he felt a little collapsed. ﹏﹍Let's...`-·`And when Leon told him to let him practice defensive skills for 15 minutes, Walker felt a little broken. This is the punishment Walker received for being late today. Walker was late to arrive half an hour after the training officially started. He rushed to Boston from his hometown of Chicago by plane only last night, and then slept for a long time, woke up and drove slowly to the training gym.

Leon did not criticize Walker at first, but asked him to change his clothes and warm up to join the training. Walker thought that his lateness was over. Anyway, he used to be late and leave early. As the team’s number one star, The coach generally doesn't say much.

When Walker got a 60,000-year contract with the Celtics, he gained more than just money and status. He also understood a lot of truth during his six-year career. For example, this is a league of superstars. Fans love the stars, so as long as you can score and save the team on the court, they will be particularly tolerant of you. Correspondingly, the coach will be very tolerant of you. Many of your actions are allowed, such as eating high-calorie foods, taking too many shots on the court, or yelling at the referee for a technical foul. Being late for training is just a small thing, and Walker didn't take it seriously.

Even if the team has a lot of Celtics' celebrities, what does it matter? How many young fans will know them?

But when the team's formal training ended at 2:30 in the afternoon and Walker was about to return to the locker room to change clothes, the team's new head coach Leon blocked him. He threw the basketball on Walker's hand, then waved at him, motioning Walker to come to the recording room with him.

If one of the Celtics' management is still more afraid of Walker, then Leon must bear the brunt. ﹏＞＿﹎吧>`-·-=`--Walker is a witty and jovial person. He is nicknamed "Comedy", while Leon is an iron-faced Hades. During his time as an assistant coach, he was in awe of the players for his strict training and unpretentious attitude towards the players, and his high IQ and strong memory ability. The Celtics players are more afraid of arguing with Leon, because they will be speechless.

So Leon asked him to follow him to the video room, and Walker had to follow him obediently. As a result, in the video room, Leon first stated that Walker needed to be punished for being late this morning. And the content of the punishment was on a video tape that Leon played next to Walker.

This is during the Indianapolis World Championships, in the morning in the Canadian training hall, Leon recorded a minute of warm-up training by Steve Nash with a video recorder. Although it is just a so-called warm-up exercise, it is actually a very high-intensity shooting exercise. Nash uses him to perform warm-up before and after training.

Leon believes that this minute of uninterrupted training is a very good way for individual players to improve and maintain their condition. It is also a good exercise for a player's actual shooting ability.

This minute's training mainly consists of several parts, the first free throw jumper on both sides of the center line, the free throw center line turned jumper, then the five-point three-point shot, the dribble step jumper, the simulated pick-and-roll jumper, and the final Free fall point fast three-point shot. In addition, according to the position and technical characteristics of different players, the practice of turning over jump shots and fast mid-range jump shots will be added.

A major feature of this practice method is that the players only use one basketball for practice throughout the whole process. No one will pass the ball to you with a basket of basketballs. After each shot, they have to pick the ball back and continue. ﹎8﹏··`-=·-=·`--· and each shooting training method has a time limit. There is also a number limit, which means that you need to throw a sufficient number of **** in a short time, otherwise it will increase the time.

Walker thought it would be a piece of cake for him, and it could be done easily. He didn't know that the intensity was really great when he really practiced, especially when Leon was holding a stopwatch to count, which made Walker count every minute. Extraordinarily difficult.

So when Walker finally finished this minute and Leon told him that he had to do defensive training, Walker began to doubt life. He made an uncooperative expression and coldly put down the hole. Nu kept his mouth to show that he was upset. In the past, it was very useful to face O'Brien or Carroll. At that time, they would tell Walker that he could go back to rest, and they would also remind him to pay attention to injuries.

But Walker squinted Leon. He was unmoved and had already begun to call Dave Cowens over to give Walker a one-on-one defensive training. Cowens, as the famous tough center forward of the nBa, can stand against a group of giants in the league with a height of 6-9, relying on extremely tough defense. Before being called by Leon, he was "abusing" Chris Anderson in one half. Anderson was also punished after training for being late. Anderson had no objection to this, and he could only accept Cowens' training obediently.

Seeing Cowens approaching, Walker couldn't help but feel a little angry. He did not practice systematically throughout the summer because of his knee and ankle injuries, so his physical reserves were poor. Today's tactical training and minute shooting practice He felt a little tired. At this moment, he missed the big bed at home so much that he could lie on it, drink beer, eat fried chicken, and watch soap operas he likes to watch. At that time, the team's new coach, Fox Leon, stood in front of him. He felt that his personal time had been violated and he had the right to freely control his life after the team training.

Walker frowned. He was about to turn and leave to go back to the locker room. It didn't matter if he had a conflict with the coach on the first day. He wanted to rest. But a detail of Leon's movement made Walker dismiss the idea. He saw Leon, who was still holding his hands on his chest before, dropped his hands and squeezed the fist of his left hand. Walker remembered Dennis Rodman, who used to drink and go to the nightclub with him last season. Once Rodman talked about why he came to Boston after drinking. He said that he was like playing a wrestling match in Sydney, Australia. I didn't want to go to Boston at all. I didn't expect Leon to go to Sydney alone to find himself, and he wanted to fight with himself. As a result, in ten minutes, Rodman couldn't even touch Leon's hair, and Leon actually had Rodman's chances several times.

Walker thought of Malik Siri again-he was doing restorative training for his leg strength at the gym. He was knocked down by Leon in a Boston bar and directly broke his jaw.

Walker's cold sweat came down. Although he said to himself that Leon could not hit his player as a coach, he was really afraid that Leon would hit his jaw with an uppercut to six yuan. After hesitating for three seconds, Walker decided to give in and started one-on-one defensive training with Cowens. This was his most hated training event. He felt that at this time he was not like a basketball player, but like a basketball player. wrestler.

…………………………

When Walker finished his punitive training, he felt that his lower body was no longer his own. He almost slumped down on the ground, and the lack of systematic training in a summer made him a little lack of physical fitness. In contrast, Paul Pierce is still on the sidelines with Leon to discuss some technical details. Although Leon doesn't know how to play, his eyes are really too accurate.

After a while, Leon called everyone together. In fact, the team training ended an hour and a half ago. If some players would leave and go home last season, some hard-working players would stay for practice. Today, everyone either voluntarily or is forced to stay and practice, combining their technical shortcomings or strengths for targeted practice.

Leon gave each player a training table. In addition to the daily training plan for the whole team, there are also personal training suggestions for everyone. These are Leon and the coaching staff for a month In the time, through a large number of video viewing and data analysis, reasonable opinions are given.

"Thanks for my Celtics~lightnovelpub.net~ On the first day of training, we have one and a half hours of extra training than last season. Maybe some people will not be used to it, but I think this team The new season and the future of each player are beneficial. Because this one and a half hour training will be part of my "career best" plan this season. It will improve your personal performance. . And your strength is the root of the team's strength." With that, Leon pulled out a large tactical whiteboard, covered with paper, and each piece of paper belongs to a player.

"Starting from the next pre-season game, your data will be counted on the paper table above, and at the top of the table, there will be your average data from the previous season. I will use your scores, Rebounds, assists, blocks, turnovers, fouls, and playing time. Several indices are calculated. Some of these indices represent your efficiency, some represent your contribution to the team's victory, and some represent your shooting level. For each one Players, whether you are a rookie who has just entered the league for a short time or a veteran who has been in the New Year, I hope you can play the best performance of your career. "This is the true center of Leon's work in the summer, composed of him, Morey and Wes RAND co-designed and opened a "career best" plan, which quantifies the performance of players with data to motivate players to keep moving forward.

After that, Leon announced that today's training is over, but the Celtics players present, especially a few young people, seem to have no intention of leaving the training hall to go home. (To be continued.)
