186 Tang Tian's Suggestion (4/5)
Chapter 186: Tang Tian's Suggestion (45)
Tang Tian became violent this time, Yi Jianlian was stunned, and the fan was also stunned.
"What the hell..." the fans just opened their mouths.
"boom!"
Tang Tian threw the ball directly at the auditorium, and the fan was so frightened that he almost became impotent.
Tang Tian is really badass!
Seeing that Tang Tian was about to climb up, the fan hurriedly turned around and slipped away.
Fans are just ordinary people, if they really want to fight with professional players, they can only get beaten.
"Thank you." Yi Jianlian said with a little gratitude at this time.
"Let's have supper together later."
Tang Tian said, it is really not easy for the Chinese to play in the NBA.
Yi Jianlian nodded.
After returning to the locker room and taking a shower, and saying hello to Green, Tang Tian then went to the garage below.
Yi Jianlian is now the number one basketball player in China. He has played in the NBA for another four or five years, and his economic conditions are still very good.
A Porsche Cayenne came over for the home game, greeted Tang Tian, and then drove out of the basement.
“There is a good Chinese restaurant here, which has several cuisines.”
Yi Jianlian has stayed here for a few months, and he is considered to be half the host.
Tang Tian nodded. Speaking of which, he ate a lot of Western food after time travel. It was a rare opportunity to have a Chinese meal together when he met someone from China abroad.
Yi Jianlian is from Cantonese, so he can eat anything, and Tang Tian can eat anything, so the two of them can order quickly.
After ordering dishes, Yi Jianlian looked shy and chatted about some trivial matters in life, but it was actually okay after he actually chatted.
I can feel his shyness in the NBA, largely because of the language barrier.
"Are you still learning English?" Tang Tian asked.
"Learning, but I'm not very good at learning. I can understand, but I can't speak well." Yi Jianlian said with a wry smile.
The players cultivated by the CBA club have been in the training hall since they were young. They don't have much time to study, and their learning ability is naturally relatively poor.
This is probably one of the reasons why most of them are introverted. Because they don't have much contact with the outside world, they know that if they speak too much, they will lose their words, so they are more silent.
"Language, you still need to talk more, you can talk more with your translator on the phone, or you can pay someone to live with you.
Don't underestimate language, it is very important for you to adapt to the NBA. "
Tang Tian shared some experience with Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian glanced at Tang Tian in surprise. The Tang Tian in front of him was only 19 years old, but why did he speak the same way as his father?
But these words did make sense, and he nodded accordingly.
The dishes were already served by this time, and the two chatted while eating.
After chatting a lot, Yi Jianlian became more relaxed. He took the initiative to ask Tang Tian about the NCAA.
When Tang Tian said those things, there was a trace of envy and longing in his eyes.
"A Lian, I have a suggestion." After chatting for a long time, the relationship between the two of them has become a lot closer, and Tang Tian's address has also become a lot more intimate.
Yi Jianlian nodded, put down his chopsticks, and listened carefully. He now has the most basic trust in Tang Tian.
"I think if you want to continue to survive in the NBA, you'd better change your style of play. Have you ever heard of a word called 'one skill'?"
Yi Jianlian nodded.
"Your current style of play includes long twos, second offense at the rim, low-post attacks at the rim, and even small hooks.
These techniques are useful both domestically and internationally, but not so prominently in the NBA. "
"I'm working hard to improve."
Yi Jianlian said that since he entered the league, he has basically practiced every day, and his self-discipline is very high.
"Yes, I know you are working hard, but because people's energy is limited and you have to train a lot, so the improvement will be very slow.
But if you put all your energy into a skill, you can be focused and precise, which is what I call "one skill" to survive in the NBA. "
What Tang Tian said is right, Yi Jianlian is the core style of play, but none of them can kill anyone in the NBA.
He can't be a core player or a role player. This is the main reason why he couldn't survive in the NBA.
This is more important than any language barrier or shy personality.
Yi Jianlian nodded thoughtfully. No one had told him about these things, and he hadn't really thought about these things.
"I don't know if you have noticed a thing, but now the big inside players who can shoot three-pointers are very popular.
Remember Dayao? Okur has voted him badly for so many years.
There is also Ryan Anderson of the Magic, who is good at shooting three-pointers, so he can start for the Magic.
There is also Lewis, who mainly shoots three-pointers after he gets older, but he can also stay in the league. "
Tang Tian continued.
What Garnett, Nowitzki, those are too unrealistic for Yi Jianlian, he said Okur, Anderson, Lewis should be the real template for Yi Jianlian.
"So my suggestion, you can develop in their direction, let go of other skills first, and practice three-pointers.
Practice three-pointers accurately and improve your shooting speed.
Think about it, is your open three-pointer one point more than the long two-pointer? Are your teammates willing to pass the ball to you when you make a shot? Because you can get assists! "
Yi Jianlian nodded thoughtfully after listening.
"The other thing is that you can lose weight appropriately, which can increase your flexibility, and it will not be so easy to switch defenses on the defensive end.
You don't have to worry about the problem of confrontation under weight loss. You originally played the fourth position, not the fifth position. "
Tang Tian continued.
His suggestion to Yi Jianlian is actually 3D players. Now that the league has not yet entered the small ball era, 3D insiders are the most popular.
He chose to lose weight and gain muscle because he was not tall enough, but Yi Jianlian was enough.
And one of Yi Jianlian's greatest talents is his flexibility. As a big man with 2.10+ meters, he can run and jump.
Tang Tian lost weight before and increased his attributes such as speed and agility. Although Yi Jianlian did not have a system, the changes were the same.
Yi Jianlian's flexibility is already high enough. If he adds more points to this area, it will be a big advantage even in the NBA.
A Yi Jianlian with accurate three-pointers, qualified defense, and faster response is the Yi Jianlian who can survive in the league.
And when the small ball era comes, this type of player will become more popular.
"I'll try." Yi Jianlian nodded.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to convince a person with a few words.
But now he has no playing time in the Mavericks, and the domestic side has been urging him to go back, so he is very confused.
I don't know what to do and how to do it. It's a bit of a "walking dead" feeling.
He doesn't know whether Tang Tian's suggestion is good or bad, but when people are confused, they are more willing to try new things than usual.
After all, the worst case is that he will not be able to play in the NBA next year.
