At six o’clock in the morning on the seventh day of the first lunar month (February 24), the sky was dark and many young people were still asleep. However, Liu Xiaodong got up early for breakfast and rode a bicycle with the light from the two bypass lights on the road. The cold wind rushed to the gymnasium of Hecheng University to report.

Crane City University is 9.2 kilometers away from the old residential area where Liu Xiaodong is located, and it takes 20 minutes to ride as an athlete. He climbed on his bicycle and came to an arch bridge made of mountains and rocks in a beautiful arc. With the light of street lamps, he saw the campus of Hecheng University covering an area of ​​1.39 million square meters.

Hecheng University is located in the middle of two rivers, “Laodong Lake” and “Nenjiang”, surrounded by water on three sides, and enjoys the reputation of “University around the Lake”.

Liu Xiaodong rode to the main entrance of Hecheng University and got off, took out the student ID printed with “Basketball Team” with his somewhat frozen right hand, and gave it to the uncle security guard at the gate with a smile.

“Hurry in, your coach has been at school for half an hour.” The security guard said with a smile. He had received a notice from the “School Office” yesterday that the basketball team will train in the gym 10 days before the start of school.

Liu Xiaodong rode to a crane-shaped building inlaid with blue glass. This is the gymnasium that symbolizes the development of the sports industry in Crane City.

The hall covers an area of ​​4,788 square meters, with a total construction area of ​​7,725 square meters, and can accommodate 5,118 spectators. It is a multi-purpose comprehensive gymnasium for both land and ice.

can accept ice hockey, figure skating, short track speed skating, curling and other international ice events, and can also host basketball, volleyball, table tennis, badminton and other ball games.

Liu Xiaodong parked his bicycle and walked into the Hecheng University Gymnasium with a backpack on his back.

At this time, it was 7:30 minutes before the team’s assembly time, and there was one hour left, so the basketball training ground seemed empty. But a middle-aged man in a black down jacket walked over with a smile on his face.

“Good morning, coach!” Liu Xiaodong looked at Zhang Tiejun and greeted him politely.

“Xiaodong, you came very early!” Zhang Tiejun looked at the new disciple, and he became more satisfied as he watched.

“I want to train early to find the shooting feel!” After Liu Xiaodong finished speaking, he walked to the rack and picked up a basketball, took a deep breath and started shooting training…

Zhang Tiejun looked at Liu Xiaodong, who was constantly doing shooting training, and couldn’t help but think of the data that Liu Xiaodong entered the gymnasium for the physical test in mid-August last year. It was really excellent.

“Liu Xiaodong, male, born on April 28, 1988, 18 years old. He is 1.95 meters tall with bare feet, is 1.98 meters tall in shoes, has an arm span of 2.80 meters, weighs 80 kilograms, and is thin.”

“100 meters sprint, 10.35 seconds!”

” 3/4 sprint, 3.55 seconds!

“Bounce 98 centimeters in place!”

“The maximum touch height of the approach is 112 cm!”

“His physical talent is really great! If he can master the correct shooting action, his achievements will be limitless!” Liu Mu walked to Zhang Tielin and said enviously.

“Yeah, if he can practice shooting, he will be another Crane City player who has the hope of entering the CBA after you.” Zhang Tiejun said firmly. In his heart, Liu Xiaodong’s expectations for Liu Xiaodong are higher than Liumu. After all, domestic There are too few good guards.

At this time, Liu Xiaodong, who had just finished shooting, did not choose to stop and rest. Instead, he picked up the basketball on the floor and began to practice a breakthrough layup.

The basketball controlled by Liu Xiaodong seems to be alive. With his left and right hands flapping, the basketball is like a part of his body.

Liu Xiaodong’s agile ball feeling made the fourth-year point guard Guo Cheng envy, who just arrived on the court, he did not have such good ball handling skills at Liu Xiaodong’s age.

? Liu Xiaodong dribbled and swayed, speeding up to the basket~www.mtlnovel.com~ his fingers softly sent the ball into the basket.

? “What a little monster!” Zhang Tiejun smiled in his heart. He couldn’t think of Liu Xiaodong’s shortcomings besides shooting. Is your body thin? He is still only a child, and he can eat it slowly, but not everyone has the agility on the court.

Zhang Tiejun has never looked forward to the start of the college league as he does now. He wants to prove his coaching level earlier, not as bad as last year!

This year, in addition to having “the province’s first center” Willow and the more mature and stable fourth-year point guard Guo Cheng, they also have a talented Liu Xiaodong.

He believes that Crane City University can compete with any university in the province, even if it is a strong national team, he also wants to ask for advice!

Looking at Liu Xiaodong, who is training on the field, Zhang Tiejun seems to see the hope of Hecheng University’s rise.

“Assemble!”

Zhang Tiejun saw that the players were all there, and he greeted the players to come over. He knew what he should say to improve the fighting spirit of the players!

? “With a one and a half month break, I believe I will not let you forget the shame of last year!”

? “The regional record of Tsukushi University entering the college league for 7 consecutive years has ended in our hands. This makes me feel very ashamed. I don’t know what you think?”

“Defeat the opponent!” Under the leadership of the captain Liu Mu, the team members roared neatly.

? “Very good! Many of you are in your last year of university, I don’t want anyone to graduate with regrets!”

Zhang Tiejun looked at the angry team members. He knew that the fire was almost over, and it was time to arrange the next task.

“It looks like you can’t wait to play, so from now on, our tactical training officially begins!”
