I Am in the Same Year as Duncan Show - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Players with their own system

In addition, Popovich originally planned to hide Xu Liang’s strength in the early part of the season, so as to give Xu Liang more time to adapt.

After all, in Popovich’s view, Xu Liang is still a young player.

Popovich is very afraid that Xu Liang will receive too much attention and bear too much pressure when his strength is weak.

This may directly cause his mentality to be greatly affected, which will affect Xu Liang’s improvement and future development.

After all, Popovich trained Xu Liang as the successor of David Robinson.

Although Xu Liang’s basketball style and David Robinson are not the same.

Xu Liang’s current physical fitness is not as dazzling as those super players in the league.

But relying on Xu Liang’s height and wingspan, his not slow speed, his understanding of the tactical system, and his own semi-finished offensive system.

Xu Liang’s future cannot be simply defined by a starting player.

We must agree that a player who can bring his own system, even if he can’t be regarded as a superstar, can’t be regarded as an ordinary player.

And most superstars can drive a system by themselves.

Note that I am talking about driving a system by myself, not by saying that I bring a system by myself.

Most of the super players rely more on their own strength and play a key role in a tactical system that suits them.

And a player wants to bring his own system, it is more about the level of the ball quotient and the mastery and understanding of the tactical system.

The former will be the data king and superstar in the league.

But it may not be able to win the final championship.

The latter is mostly the cornerstone of any team, and even the team culture that can cultivate the entire team.

For example, Jordan, such as Olajuwon, such as Chris Paul, such as Kidd, such as Stockton and Karl Malone, such as half of Nash and so on.

said that Nash is half a player with his own tactical system, and the reason is also because of his physical fitness.

Although the player has a high quotient and he has mastered a very good offensive tactical system, it is necessary to truly display the strength of this tactical system.

Nash needs the cooperation of his teammates very much.

In contrast, Chris Paul and Kidd will be less dependent on teammates.

Both can rely on their own personal abilities to determine the trend of the game at a critical moment.

And Nash obviously lacks this ability.

And this year’s Spurs are very lucky to choose two rookies, Duncan and Xu Liang are both cornerstone players with their own tactical system.

Duncan carries a defense system.

Xu Liang is carrying a semi-finished offensive system.

As long as the players with their own tactical system are not too bad, their future development will be at least All-Star players.

may also develop into a historical-level ball king.

So after fully understanding Xu Liang’s strength, Popovich raised Xu Liang’s importance to the same level as Duncan.

Of course, judging from the present, Xu Liang, the cornerstone player of the future, still has many shortcomings.

There are many places to improve, unlike Duncan, after completing four years of college competition.

Duncan has adapted all his skills and game mentality to a very mature state.

Therefore, Popovich needs to put more effort into training and taking care of Xu Liang.

According to the truth, the training of any talented player should be to expose him to severe beatings by the society.

After all, talented players have always been among the best, and they are the most dazzling of all the crowd.

Therefore, a certain arrogant and conceited mentality will inevitably develop.

For the training of this kind of player at this time, the first thing to do is to break his arrogant or blind self-confidence mentality.

let him really see his potential and current actual strength.

In addition, the physical fitness of such a talented player is leveraged, so he is very grass-tolerant?

So the coaches are not so worried when they are training. It is enough to maintain the competitive state and competitive mentality of these players.

And Xu Liang is obviously not like this. From the beginning, Xu Liang realized that he had crossed into a new world and was able to play in the NBA.

Xu Liang has always put himself in a lower position, which is actually an expression of unconfidence.

And this lack of self-confidence is not only a good thing for coaches, but also a headache for them.

The advantage is that most of the players who are not confident are more honest and can follow the rules and normal training and competition.

But the disadvantages correspond to the advantages. A game that is too regular means that there is not enough spirituality in the game, and it is difficult to develop the potential and strength that it should have.

As for the foundation stone of a team, the initiator of the tactical system, sometimes it has to be on the court.

And in many cases, the tactical core is the key to the stability of the entire team.

Without sufficient self-confidence, it is easy to be unable to bear this kind of pressure at this time and make mistakes step by step.

So Popovich’s cultivation of Xu Liang, UU read www. uukanshu.com first wants him to adapt to the environment slightly.

And after he gradually adapted to the intensity of the NBA game, it stimulated his self-confidence.

Looking for a special game to make it truly cultivate the mentality of a strong player.

After all, for a person who is not confident, self-confidence needs to be cultivated.

Even if you suffer a huge failure and pressure before you have developed enough self-confidence, it may directly lead to the destruction of your mentality.

Thus this genius fell directly.

For example, Kwam Brown, for example, Dark Milicic.

Compared with these two people, Xu Liang is weaker in talent and lower in self-confidence.

All, more likely to be destroyed by various pressures.

But all this is the premise that Popovich treats Xu Liang as a 20-year-old young man.

In fact, although Xu Liang does not have enough confidence in basketball strength, it is because of the life experience of more than 30 years in the previous life.

The ability to resist pressure is still sufficient, not to mention that it must be the king and hegemony, but it is more difficult to completely destroy it.

Although Xu Liang didn’t expect that Popovich would attach so much importance to him.

But Xu Liang also felt that Popovich’s series of actions were also to protect himself.

Help yourself to better adapt to the intensity of the NBA game.

So the end result is that Xu Liang did not participate in any of the Spurs’ preseason games.

This also makes the outside world continue to speculate, after the Spurs chose Xu Liang.

After investigation in actual reality, it is found that Xu Liang has not reached the expected level, and it is very likely that he will be laid off or traded.
