Volume 1: The Road to the European Emperor Chapter 48 How fast are you?
"Sun, can we come in?"
The short guy looks a little immature.
On the other hand, the big guy was looking around before he came in, and he seemed more relaxed .
Sun Hao nodded and let them in.
Anyway, he and Prigioni were the only ones left in the locker room, and they were about to leave, so they were all dressed very formally.
"Do you know them?"
Prigioni thought about it and realized he had never seen the two of them , so he turned around and looked at Sun Hao in confusion.
Sun Hao shook his head.
Prigioni was even more confused. How could he let you in even though he didn't know you?
“Are you fans?”
Prigioni turned to the two and asked.
"Yes, but we are also players. We both play in Ligue 1."
The big guy started to explain, and then he pushed the short guy.
Prigioni looked at them with a different look at this time.
These two people looked to be about 17 or 18 years old, and they went straight to Ligue 1.
Although the level of Ligue 1 is not high in Europe, it is still a first-tier league, and both players are full of talent.
"My name is Tony Parker, his name is Boris Diaw, and I want to ask Sun how to train three-point shooting."
Parker looked at Sun Hao and said, his eyes full of anticipation.
Tony Parker and Boris Diaw.
Sun Hao saw them at the beginning.
This is France, and we are playing in the Champions League semi-finals, so it’s not surprising to meet them.
However, after Parker asked this question, Sun Hao was stunned.
What?
Parker wants to learn three-point shooting from him?
Are you sure?
In his mind, Parker is a "French sports car" whose offense is basically based on breakthroughs and fast breaks.
He has a good mid-range shot, but his three-point shot is terrible!
Of the guys he met in Europe, Gasol was similar to what he had imagined, with an offensive talent that overflowed with defensive talent; Ginobili specialized in breakthroughs, and his shooting had not yet been developed.
But what the hell is going on when Parker comes to him to ask how to shoot a three-pointer?
The Butterfly Effect?
This is a reasonable explanation.
He is now famous, it is impossible for Fernandez to always be his only fan.
However, he felt particularly uncomfortable when he thought of Parker holding the ball and shooting three-pointers from the outside like him.
“Have you ever practiced three-point shooting before?”
Sun Hao didn't rush to make a decision, but asked Parker a question.
"I have practiced, but not much."
Parker was honest.
"Have you ever measured your 100-meter speed? What's your fastest?"
Sun Hao continued to ask.
"10.43 seconds."
"How many?"
"10.43 seconds, this is my data when I entered the French Ligue 1 physical training."
Parker explained again.
Be good.
When Sun Hao heard this, he coughed dryly for a while.
How can there be such a huge difference between this person and others?
10.43 seconds, where does this rank in the NBA?
He remembered that Iverson was only 10.30 seconds.
Even in a 100-meter race, this is the level of a top professional athlete.
"The direction of a player's career needs to be planned from an early age. For example, I started practicing three-pointers at the beginning, and it took me so many years to become what I am now."
Sun Hao immediately replaced last season’s training assistant coach.
And what he said was right. The system years are twice as long as those outside. If he started practicing at the age of 9, he would be about the same by now.
"Your 100-meter speed is so fast. I believe that what you practice the most is the breakthrough, so that's what you need to practice."
In his previous life, Sun Hao became an NCAA assistant coach at a young age, so he has some vision for people.
Of course, what’s more important is that he is very good at fooling people.
But Parker is already this old, he can't change the opponent's playing style. If you say that young Parker comes to him, he wouldn't mind him practicing like himself.
After all, it wouldn’t be bad to have several future NBA superstars as apprentices.
"Allen Iverson, that could be someone you can learn from."
In the end, Sun Hao was very responsible and found a template for him.
"Thank you very much."
Parker wanted to learn from Sun Hao because he played basketball so cool, but the fundamental reason was that he was confused.
Now that Sun Hao has pointed out a clear path for him, he must of course be grateful.
"Boris, don't you ask?"
Seeing that Dio didn't say anything, Parker turned around and asked.
"I don't need it. I have idols, Magic Johnson and Alvin Johnson."
Dio seems to have a very open personality, and he is not shy at all at this moment.
His words earned a roll of eyes from Parker.
After listening to this, Sun Hao nodded.
Dio, Magic Johnson, and Bodiroga are all the same type of players.
"Then you have to watch the Champions League final, the White Magician's match."
Sun Hao continued.
"I will, I've already bought the ticket, thank you."
This time, Dio said thank you, and the way he looked at Sun Hao was a little different from before.
Sun Hao didn't tease him at all, and seemed to understand him a little.
Shortly after the two Champions League semi-finals ended, the Champions League officials selected the venue for the final from the pre-selected stadiums.
Aleksandar Nikolic Arena is located in Belgrade, the capital of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Yugoslavia represents the highest level of European basketball. Last year, the Yugoslav League defeated the United States to win the World Championship.
The UEFA Champions League Organizing Committee decided to hold the competition here. In addition to geographical considerations, the basketball atmosphere is also a major reason.
Yugoslavia disintegrated in 1992, but Montenegro and Serbia remained and formed the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Sun Hao met Sasa Doncic, who is from the Yugoslav Federation, when he was watching the World Cup final in France.
Or to be more precise, he is Serbian.
But two years later, they have lost contact.
This is completely normal. If there is no intersection in life, friends will eventually become strangers, not to mention a chance meeting.
Unless the other person is a woman.
Belgrade, also known as the Key to the Balkans, is the fourth largest city in the Balkan Peninsula and the largest city in the former Yugoslavia.
This is an ancient city with a long history, but its history is one of alternating occupations.
The Huns, Sarmatians, Ostrogoths and Avars at the beginning of the century, the Ottomans and Hungary in the last century, and Turkey and Austria in modern times.
It was not until the 19th century that he regained his independence.
However, it is precisely this history that makes this city full of diversity.
The architectural styles alone, including Austro-Hungarian, Moravian, Baroque, and Neo-Renaissance, will dazzle you.
When Sun Hao left the airport, his first impression was that the people here were so tall, with an average height of nearly 1.9 meters.
These are all ordinary people.
It is said that the Balkan Peninsula is rich in giants, and it is indeed true.
After the team dropped off their luggage at the hotel, Lazo took everyone to the room to watch the video.
That was the video of yesterday's match between Panathinaikos and Barcelona.
seeing is believing.
Yesterday, Prigioni introduced Bodiroga to Sun Hao. He is the most versatile player in Europe, the white magician, and a member of El Latigo. Everyone would think that he is a bit exaggerated.
But after watching the video, Sun Hao felt that what Prigioni said was already conservative.
His feeling after watching it was that he had witnessed a legend.
It's hard to imagine that a 2.05-meter-tall guy can play so flexibly and gracefully.
As Prigioni left the dressing room with him yesterday, he also said that Bodiroga was voted the "most attractive bachelor".
? ?
Isn't that what he's called?
However, after watching the video , Sun Hao felt that this evaluation was quite objective, especially his playing style.
And the key is that no one on Real Madrid's side can match up with him, and no matter who is used to defend him, it would seem like a mismatch.
It seems that tomorrow night's final is destined to be a battle of offense and defense. Whoever defeats the other first will win the final victory.
That night, Sun Hao switched the training robot to hell mode in the system.
Even though he had just obtained the gold-level badge, his hit rate in hell mode was not very high.
However, this is also his warm-up for tomorrow's game. He needs to adapt to the difficulties in advance so that he can face danger with no fear.
The next night, the Champions League final officially kicked off at the Alexander Nikolic Arena.
This basketball stadium named after Alexander Nikolic is the home stadium of the Belgrade Red Star team and can accommodate 16,000 spectators.
The stadium was already packed.
Like the previous Arena de France, the fans in the stadium were divided into two major groups on the left and right.
On one side are Real Madrid fans, on the other side are Panathinaikos fans, and there are also some local fans from the Balkans.
It was at this time that Sun Hao met the most fanatical fans, the Greek fans, for the first time after arriving in Europe.
Russia is a world-famous fighting nation, but when it comes to madness, Greek fans are second to none.
Fireworks and national flags are common during football matches. According to my real memories, when there were so many fireworks at the Greek home stadium, people would mistake it for a battlefield. Fans would throw firecrackers into the football stadium, and the noise made people think they were grenades.
What's worse, some visiting teams found it difficult to escape after winning the game in Greece.
He saw it tonight, too.
Bodiroga's portrait was made into an oversized cloth poster, and when the four corners were pulled apart, it occupied nearly one-fifth of one side of the stadium.
But what he didn't expect was that this was actually the most peaceful scene he had seen tonight.
Real Madrid was the first to enter the field and start warming up.
Entering the final, the Spanish fans were also very excited. They started singing the fight song in unison during the warm-up.
The fans spontaneously raised their hands and danced, and the scene was spectacular.
The Real Madrid fans on the field soon felt the warm-up boiling.
It was at this moment that Sun Hao noticed several familiar faces sitting in the first row.
Fernandez actually got a ticket for the first row!
This guy has spent a lot of money.
When Sun Hao saw him, he went over to say hello without even feeling warm.
Fist bumps, hugs, head pats, and chats.
Then, Sun Hao met Raul.
The core of the Real Madrid team, the "Golden Boy" Raul Gonzalez Blanco.
Because his parents are fans of Sun Hao, Raul and Sun Hao have occasionally contacted and met in recent years.
I didn’t expect that he would come all the way to watch his own Champions League final.
And he brought someone with him.
Zidane.
The star player of the French football team.
Sun Hao shook hands and hugged Zidane.
"Raul said your game can't be missed."
"I didn't miss your game, I went to the Stade de France and I saw France win the championship."
"real?"
Because of the Football World Cup, the two people who had never met each other had no shortage of topics to talk about and they immediately became engaged in a conversation.
After a while, the warm-up was over and the opening ceremony began.
It was at this time that Sun Hao saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.
