Sun Hao took Yi Jianlian to try out the school in Los Angeles, and the rest was left to Paul Fu.

He returned to Dallas and started a new training content with Baker's help.

Just as Baker said to Sun Hao before, he needs to practice a lot this summer.

Take a step back shot, deceptive fake moves before breaking through, and... shooting posture.

Among these three training contents, shooting posture is the top priority.

Sun Hao has been training for so many years, and his shooting posture has long formed muscle memory.

This is difficult to change, but it has to be done.

According to Baker, he is not tall enough. If he continues to use his current posture, he will easily be blocked when he reaches the regular season level.

This is also an important reason why many short people are defeated in low-level leagues but cannot adapt to high-level leagues.

Don't ask why Kobe, Jordan and even McGrady use jump shots because of their height and wingspan, and jump shots, they can hardly block them.

Baker's advice is to go from projection to push shot.

These are two completely different shooting methods. Most players use shooting, while the representatives of pushing are Curry and Nash.

Of course, Curry hadn't appeared at this time, and Baker took Nash as an example.

From this perspective, this is a very risky attempt.

There are two biggest differences between these two shooting methods.

One is the difference between participating arms. Projection is more about making use of the forearm muscles, while pushing and shooting requires the participation of the upper arm.

What is the big arm? Biceps!

Or more vivid, the Kirin Arm.

Fortunately, Sun Hao had a lot of strength training before, especially his strong arms, and his original preparations were all eliminated.

Another difference is shooting speed.

The shooting speed of the push shot is much faster than the shooting.

This is also the key to why Curry shot every 0.33 seconds.

In fact, whether it is a step back, a fake move before the breakthrough, or even a shooting move, the purpose is to create shooting space for Sun Hao.

Sun Hao himself knew this very well, so after accepting Baker's theory, he devoted himself to training.

And he also began to reassign training content.

Practice step back and breakthroughs during the day, and then go to the system to hold the ball and shoot without the ball after training.

This process is very painful.

But he was very happy.

Even for a moment, he understood why Kobe got up to train at four in the morning.

To describe it in the simplest but most realistic word, love.

He inspired the system because of his love for basketball.

Later, he entered the system to practice hard, more to slap Li Yuanwei and Yang Wei in the face.

But the five-year agreement ended early, and he found that he had not lost motivation.

It was also at that time that he realized that slapping the face was just an excuse he had made for himself, and his real motivation was still love.

Just like some people are excited when they mention fighting lol, some people can travel through mountains and rivers for photography, and some people can throw their lives aside in order to prevent the epidemic.

That's all about love, whether it's big or small, it doesn't matter how big or small it is.

A week later, Yi Jianlian returned from the trial training.

This time, he finally had his own choice.

“I’m going to play for Sierra Leone Canyon School.”

He ended up not choosing to go to Spain.

Sun Hao also supports his choice.

Bob should be very good, and both are in the United States, so it is convenient for the two to connect.

Of course, if you make a choice, it depends on whether the country can handle it well.

Before Yi Jianlian returned to China, Sun Hao called Li Yuanwei.

The country is a human society, and with Li Yuanwei's help, things will go much smoother.

Li Yuanwei would not not help this either.

Compared with Sun Hao, a young man like Yi Jianlian who has not yet made a comeback, his value is not equal even if his talent is overflowing.

Moreover, from the five-year appointment, it can be seen that he is not a short-sighted person.

If Yi Jianlian can be sold abroad, it will be good news from the national level.

The facts have indeed developed like this.

After Yi Jianlian returned to China, he told his thoughts to his parents.

His parents rarely hear their son say what they want, especially after experiencing that incident in elementary school.

So when Yi Jianlian mentioned it, they fully supported it.

However, the Hongyuan team naturally refused to let people go easily.

At the critical moment, Li Yuanwei, the former director of the Guangdong Provincial Sports Bureau, arrived in Guangdong in person.

No one knew exactly what happened, but the final result was that the Hongyuan team agreed to release the person.

And shortly after that, Yi Jianlian said goodbye to his parents and boarded a plane to the United States.

He will start his high school career in Los Angeles across the ocean!

...

In Dallas in September, the air is still humid and hot.

Before he knew it, Yi Jianlian had been training in Dallas with Sun Hao for two months.

These two months have also been quite painful for him.

While helping Sun Hao train, Baker also helped Yi Jianlian to practice.

Like Sun Hao’s three major points, he also has three major points.

According to Baker's idea, Yi Jianlian's template is Sun Hao's future teammate Nowitzki.

To be Nowitzki, shooting is a must-practice.

However, unlike Sun Hao, he did not let Yi Jianlian pursue speed, but pursue stability.

During this process, he also forced Yi Jianlian to get rid of two bad habits.

I like to look at the three-point line before shooting, and I like to squat and shoot.

Who knows how he developed these two habits, but Baker directly forced him to change, even if it was crazy at the beginning.

Shooting is the second point, and the second point is the finishing ability.

Yi Jianlian has excellent running and jumping skills, but the ending is not good, and it is even a bit bad.

On the one hand, it is because Yi Jian's joint efforts are small, so this cannot be changed.

What can be changed is his scoring skills and core strength, which are the key factors that determine the ending ability.

Wiping the board, hooking, turning around, and walking, and having many small skills under the basket, it is not a matter of time for Yi Jianlian to master it.

But Yi Jianlian is still young and still has plenty of time to practice.

The third point is pick-and-roll ability.

Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll is too unsolid, which has something to do with strength and skills.

Yi Jianlian needs to find a way to improve his strength, but some small steps, blocking and dismantling opportunities in the pick-and-roll can be practiced.

I have to say that Yi Jianlian chose to play basketball in the United States, and the unexpected benefit was that he took advantage of Baker's wave.

Sun Hao’s trainer was used for him for free.

Of course, the training process is very painful.

However, no matter how painful it is, Sun Hao practiced together, he persisted.

And by mid-September, in addition to training, they had one more thing to do at night.

Stay up late to watch the live broadcast.

The Olympics opened in Sydney. Due to the time difference, the competition was 8 pm and Los Angeles was still 2 AM.

The time difference was 18 hours, but I still worked even though I stayed up late.

Melon seeds, peanuts, drinks and coffee, two big men sat in front of the TV waiting for live broadcast.
