2 Chapter [-] against Dragic
Since high school, Li Shihao followed his grandfather to the other side of the ocean. He grew up in the American environment and honed his golf skills very well.
It has to be said that there is a reason why the NBA can become a global league. It absorbs all kinds of talented rookies from all over the world and from the United States every year.
Among them, American rookies accounted for the vast majority.Just like Brazil used to be known as the football kingdom, the basketball environment in the United States has created batches of outstanding young people to show themselves on the basketball stage.
During the three years in the NCAA, Li Shihao didn't have a bright moment. In the first year, he was unknown, and in the second year, he just secured the position of the team's starting point guard. The March Madness period of the third year.
It was that one game against the University of Connecticut that made him famous in the first battle. The record six overtime games made his name instantly spread all over the United States, which increased his worth in the summer draft.
The three years in the college league gave him a great buffer time and allowed him to make sufficient preparations for entering the NBA.
Since the league began to prohibit high school students from participating in the draft, many talented rookies began to change their strategies and began to use the NCAA as a pedal. After playing in the NCAA for a full year, they used the one-year NCAA qualifications to land in the NBA.
This situation happens every year. There are countless basketball geniuses in the United States like crucian carp crossing the river. These talented basketball players who can stand out are all outstanding figures for a while, and their greatest characteristic is often their great self-confidence.
But for many talented basketball players, a one-year NCAA career seems to be too short, and it cannot add much game experience to them. They are still far from maturity.
Li Shihao was very grateful for his choice at the beginning. He did not choose to participate in the NBA draft immediately. Instead, he hibernated in the NCAA league for three years, honed his skills hard, and signed up for the draft when the time was right.
When he was a freshman, Li Shihao couldn't even guarantee playing time. He was a fringe figure in the college team, and he didn't have to expect to participate in the NBA draft. I'm afraid NBDL would not want him.
Later, during his sophomore year, he secured his position as the starting point guard, and his draft prospect was only selected in the middle and late stages of the second round, and he might even fall out of the second round and become an undrafted rookie.
In the end, in his junior year, he successfully counterattacked. Using his crazy performance in March Madness, he entered the lottery zone in one fell swoop, and was finally picked by the Timberwolves, who held the first round pick in the draft.
Compared with the NCAA, the NBA is another field. Many rising college stars in the NCAA will often be reduced to role players in the NBA. They will start as a substitute, and some will even quit the NBA if they can’t hold on. The stage was eliminated by this alliance.
There are still very few rookies like Derrick Rose who can kill the Quartet as soon as they enter the league. Even Kevin Durant, the head star of the Oklahoma City Thunder, was a constant striker when he first entered the league. A rookie who spends a lot of mobile phone opportunities in exchange for personal data. You must know that Durant was still the second-best rookie in the 07 class.
Li Shihao was able to go all the way this season because of the three years in the NCAA period, without three years of dormancy and three years of buffering, he would never adapt to this league so easily.
Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, Deron Williams, Chris Paul... There are too many outstanding first positions in this league. For Li Shihao, who first entered the league, it is difficult to deal with every one.
However, after he adapted to this league, his strength improved rapidly after a season of tempering.
The more powerful the environment, the more able to train people, this is not true at all!
After the big brother Yao Ming gained a firm foothold in the NBA, his strength improved rapidly. Finally, he was able to lead the Chinese men's basketball team to the top of Asia and all the way to the Olympic quarterfinals.
In the second round of the playoffs, the Timberwolves faced the Phoenix Suns and had already lost two games in a row. The situation was precarious. If they lost another game, they would not have to worry about being kicked out, but they would have to worry about losing morale. Will the Suns take away the Timberwolves in a wave in the fourth game and complete the second round sweep.
Li Shihao couldn't guard Nash, and Nash couldn't guard Li Shihao. Both parties understood this, so the Suns chose to let the young and aggressive Dragic defend themselves, and did not give themselves an easy shot.
In this game, if you want to win and get back a round with a big score, you have to start by yourself and blow up a position, which will trigger a chain reaction and drive the rhythm of the whole team.
In the first two games, Steve Nash perfectly controlled the rhythm of the game. Even if he couldn't defend himself, he was still able to maintain the offensive firepower just right. The point difference never changed much. In the end, the Timberwolves were trapped to death in the game.
Dragic has excellent athletic ability. Although he is a white player, he is not as bad as some black players in this respect. He can firmly mark Li Shihao and prevent Li Shihao from easily jumping.
Fortunately, Li Shihao has an excellent sense of rhythm. Facing Dragic's defense, he can find the flaws in Dragic's defense through the gap in the dribbling rhythm, and use realistic fake moves to bring Dragic up. Qi's action, and then broke out instantly, dribbling the ball through Dragic's defense.
This is the best way to face the young guard of the Suns!
One season has passed, Li Shihao has made great progress in both ball handling ability and explosive power, which is no longer the same as when he first entered the league.
This is also the reason why many media people and TV commentators are willing to vote for him in the selection of the best rookie.
Lee Se-ho not only proved himself to be one of the best rookies this year, but also his own potential for improvement, the latter being especially important.
The selection of the best rookie needs to consider this aspect. The selection of the best rookie in a rookie class is mostly very cautious. After all, if No. 2 and No. 3 surpass No. 1 and become a historical legend in the future, it will be fun. big.
Stephen Curry's strength was not very impressive at the beginning of the season, but after one season, he has surpassed Jennings of the Bucks and became the third rookie leaderboard. This speed of improvement has also changed many people's views on him. Think he can adapt to this league and become a star.
However, Li Shihao's improvement rate shown this season is even greater than that of Curry.
Facing Dragic tonight, after Li Shihao found the right way to fight, he was sure of his fight. After gaining confidence in the breakthrough, he could even change his style of play and use his strength to force Dragic at the beginning.
This method is also very effective. In terms of strength, Dragic is far behind Li Shihao, and he cannot withstand Li Shihao's strong attack at all.
