Chapter 56 Hook Optimization
Arriving at the press conference, Comrade Lao Wang sat down excitedly, waiting for reporters' questions.
He looked around and found that the rotten radish from the New York Times that had been staring at him was not there, which made him feel particularly good.
Next, due to his excellent performance tonight, he received attention from local media, who threw him one question after another.
Not only the Phoenix area, but the entire Arizona media pays great attention to him and asks him no fewer questions than Barkley.
"Old K, you scored 27+13 tonight. Can I assume that you can only perform so well against weaker opponents?"
a TNT reporter asked as the press conference
Wang Tiejun sneered, “Yes, for example, when I play against Mourning, I will indeed perform better against such a weak opponent.”
“Puff!”
Buckley burst out laughing and openly gave Comrade Lao Wang a thumbs up.
“…”
The reporter opened his mouth, looking depressed, and the microphone in his hand was immediately taken away by the staff.
In the middle of the night, Wang Tiejun returned home and turned on the system before going to bed, preparing to redeem a function card.
He definitely couldn't use training cards anymore, and the three training cards had already taken up all his energy. The only thing he wanted to exchange now was the skill optimization card.
"System, exchange a skill optimization card for me. Also, can you give me some advice on which technology to optimize?" he said in his heart.
"Which ability do you prefer to improve first?" the system asked.
He said: "My finishing methods are too monotonous now. Apart from dunking, I don't dare to use other scoring methods because my hit rate is too low.
For dunking, I have to hit the rim every time, which consumes too much energy and I can't keep doing it for long. And if I play like this, I often don't have enough time to attack and I'm easily double-teamed.
And if I play like this in every game, it will be hard for me to last the entire regular season. When it comes to the playoffs, my physical reserves will become a big problem.
So do you think it is possible to improve this aspect and optimize the ending method? "
"Can."
The system said: "The host is tall and has long arms and huge hands, which makes him suitable for one-handed shooting. One-handed shooting is fast, sudden, and not easy to be defended. It is recommended to improve the hook shot or the floater. Since the host's hook shot level is the highest, the hook shot can be improved."
"Okay, then let's optimize the hook shot." He said quickly.
"Optimization started...Transfer started..."
Soon, a bioelectric current was born in the brain, and some hook information appeared in the mind.
After comparing, he decided that the shooting movements optimized by this system should be more suitable for his current body.
When his hook shot was formed in the past, his body was less than two meters tall, his forearm strength was not as great as it is now, and his wrist was not as thick as it is now. At that time, his shooting feel was stronger than it is now, and the arc of the ball was also larger than it is now.
In fact, it's not just the hook shot, the same goes for his other skills. Even some of the basic basketball skills have been seriously affected by his physical growth and the decline in athletic quality in the past two years. His basic skills were not so bad before.
Not to mention the decline in athletic quality due to lack of training, just talking about physical development, this is also a very important hurdle for athletes.
Especially in sports such as diving and gymnastics, there are many athletes who are very good before development, but become mediocre after development. This is because of this reason.
For example, in basketball, some athletes initially play outside, but as they grow taller they switch to the inside and have to practice their inside skills all over again. The same principle applies.
The same was true for him. Although his position did not change, the impact was still huge. In addition, he had no formal training for two years, so the final impact was even greater .
Now, after systematic optimization, the new hook shot technique is more suitable for today's body. Simply put, by modifying the technical movements, increasing the control over strength, and adjusting the angle of the shot.
He is not as accurate as before because he is taller and stronger. He has lost his aim and now needs to recalibrate.
"Congratulations to the host. The skill optimization is complete. The hook shot level has been increased from level 55 to level 85, the basket attack level has been increased from level 72 to level 85, and the low-post close-range attack level has been increased from level 50 to level 70."
The system prompts at this time.
Comrade Lao Wang laughed and his hook shot was upgraded by 30 levels at once.
As expected, one trick is enough to save you everything. He only improved one finishing technique, and his offensive firepower under the basket and close-range offensive firepower have been improved so much. His scoring ability and offensive area have been greatly improved.
Not feeling sleepy, he immediately got out of bed and went downstairs to the backyard.
A basketball hoop and half a court have been erected in the backyard so he can train at home.
He turned on the light, took a ball and came to the low post on the left wing. He made a back-to-the-basket gesture with the ball, suddenly leaned back, then turned upward, jumped sideways, raised his right arm, and with a push of his right wrist and fingers, the basketball flew towards the basket.
"boom!"
The ball hit the rim and rolled down.
"Not bad!" he laughed.
Because the system directly imprinted the technical movements in his mind and formed muscle memory, his hook shot level can be directly improved. Now he can use it with ease and is very familiar with it.
In the technical move just now, there was a hitting action before the shot, which was a technical link that had not been there before.
This leaning and hitting action also uses the force of Tieshan Leaning, but it is not a full-strength leaning and hitting. The purpose is to move the defender's center of gravity through leaning and hitting when the opponent is defending, making it impossible for the opponent to stop him from getting up.
If the defender is on side defense or one step back, this technical move does not need to be used, you can just stand up.
…
The next day, the Suns went on an away trip, with the first stop being Houston, the second stop being the Mavericks, and the third stop being the Spurs, with the Mavericks and Spurs playing back-to-back games.
Not only Wang Tiejun is looking forward to the next three away games, but the Suns, the entire Phoenix, and even the entire state of Arizona are all looking forward to it.
Because in these three games, he will face two of the three super centers, and he will face the most powerful super center in the league.
In the first game of his professional career, he dunked over super center Ewing, but that dunk was just a lucky chance and didn't mean anything, and he was immediately substituted off the court, so it wasn't actually a formal confrontation with the super center.
Next, he will officially compete against two super centers, and his strength will be truly tested.
However, the media in Phoenix and Arizona were not optimistic about these two matchups, because O'Neal had already played against the three super centers respectively and did not perform well. He was even knocked down by Dream. O'Neal was taught a lesson. He, who was much weaker and had very monotonous skills, was even worse.
