5. Growth Card: Mid-Range Jumper Expert (4700 words)

Of course you have to participate! If you participate, you will live for 15 days. If you deduct a full score, you will live for one more month! It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a full score. It’s very important to continue your life for half a month.

Zhang Hao's initial idea was that since he could build his own team, he would save some money, find a group of people, and participate in various street competitions together, such as Pierce, who was looking for a junior and he was the "coach" of this small team. These two people would definitely not ask him to pay his salary. At most, everyone will get the bonus and will not be too high anyway. The main reason is that he can still practice football.

In theory, Zhang Hao thinks it works, and he thinks this may be one of the best ways he can make himself survive under normal circumstances.

However, Zhang Hao didn't know if he signed his own bug, which made him a "special signing player" different from an ordinary signing player... Since it was a special signing, it would definitely be different.

"Special signing player: Zhang Hao"... Looking at this line listed separately in the subtitles, it is indeed different.

I am my own signing player. When I encounter some things related to my basketball career, I will trigger the task of Goldfinger. My "coach" needs to help me complete the task, and then there will be rewards... Zhang Hao feels that his head is a little explosive, but this is a good thing! So he decisively chose to perform this task!

There are two choices. One is to take the street ball route. If you really can't get into a college basketball team, you can find a university with a suitable tuition fee and take your time to play low-level leagues in your spare time... If you really get the recognition of a certain team by relying on the dunk competition, although the probability is not high, you can also look forward to it a little. At least you have to deduct it well and become famous. Even if you don't go to college to play street ball, more people will know him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao felt that it was not that difficult to survive.

Perhaps, the living he pursued, based on the memory of the future, has been done. He can live for at least one year, and it is a one-year life. For the future, he has already made a dream come true. At that time, he just wanted to stand up and live like a normal person for one day. Even if he is a day, he can die willingly. The feeling of lying on the hospital bed and even losing pain, when he thinks about it, he feels like he has had an extremely long nightmare.

But Zhang Hao’s dream in this era is not even too late to set sail. It is extremely difficult to fulfill his dream, become a world-class basketball player, and lead the national team to glory...

However, Zhang Hao really wants to try it! He didn’t have a chance in the past, but now he wants to be a good person... No, it’s to continue his previous efforts, and even work harder to become an excellent basketball player!

If it really doesn't work, just play streetball and low-level leagues. If you are old enough to be a coach, you can continue to live - it is said that you can live a normal life even if you are satisfied in one day, but you can live longer, why not work hard?

Moreover, it is not embarrassing to play in a low-level league. It all depends on ability and hard work to make money.

With the memory of the future, Zhang Hao's vision and angle of looking at things have changed drastically from before, but he is an 18-year-old boy after all.

The young man is moving forward in a way, so he has been living a very unhappy life in the United States in the past three years, at least because he is extremely unfit in the living environment and it is very difficult to communicate with others, but Zhang Hao has been working hard.

And the memory of the future brings... it is more daring to think and do!

I finally got the opportunity to survive again, but finally started again, afraid of being afraid! Of course, I have to live my life freely!

Participate! Participate sure.

Let’s record this matter for the time being. After Pierce went to coach his juniors, Zhang Hao found an empty half and prepared to practice mid-range shots. He wanted to try the role of the "growth card".

Zhang Hao always felt that his mid-range shot was excellent, but when he converted to the NBA, he was only at a good level of 75! And he was only at a good mid-range level. You know, when he was in his senior year, he did not rely on cutting to score, but on mid-range shots, because Pierce often played singles at close range, and his ability to open up space is very important. Mid-range shots are his strongest offensive weapon.

"This is the qualitative difference between high school games and the NBA! I really don't know how strong Garnett, James and Howard should be in high school. It's been a waste of time for at least a year for geniuses like Kobe and O'Neal Jr., just entering the NBA..."

Although he has the ability evaluation of NBA bench players of 60, Zhang Hao has no idea of ​​complacentness. According to his judgment, even if he really has the opportunity to enter the NBA, he is unlikely to play. Compared with other bench players, he has no strengths! He is not very strong at all, and he doesn't even have any characteristics.

However, it happened to be raining in time! I found the bug of Goldfinger. If I could have a 90-year shooting ability, it would be fine, right?

Zhang Hao analyzed that the stars with 90-94 ability value are at the top level, so if they hit 90 in the mid-range shot, they should have entered the top level! It is definitely not bad!

Whether it is a successful entry into the NCAA or a low-level professional league, having a top-notch mid-range shot will not be a bad thing.

As Zhang Hao's central investment training began, a line of subtitles prompts floated in front of him...

"Growth Card: A mid-range jump shot expert, has enabled the muscle memory bonus for mid-range shooting training, has enabled the ability to comprehend..."

You don’t stop training just because a prompt appears. Only after training can you know whether the training muscle memory bonus mentioned by this prompt is useful.

What are the benefits of being taciturn in the past two years in the United States?... It's just that there are not many people disturbing him. Pierce's father was once a road-based person. One of the two brothers was an assistant coach at the University of Wyoming and the other played in the San Francisco Giants in the U.S. professional baseball. Both brothers were not as talented as Pierce and had a fair amount of money. However, they rely on their father's harem and had a wide range of ways. Pierce's mother opened an apartment. In this part of the United States, no one dared to make trouble. It was still a bit of energy these days.

Therefore, in the past three years in the United States, Zhang Hao has been studying and practicing football... The key is that he played well in the state high school league, so he has a unique personal charm in the school... This is not important, what is important is that his training is very good. Coaches like this type of players, so they are very careful in guiding Zhang Hao. Compared with university coaches, high school coaches really generate electricity for love. Their position is physical education teachers, but if they don’t give money, of course they have to give power. The solid foundation of sports in the United States has a lot to do with this. In college, high school, and even junior high school sports clubs, the coach is the sky.

Zhang Hao's shooting foundation under the guidance of professional coaches in high schools here is very good. The basketball foundation in the United States is probably equivalent to the table tennis foundation in China. The American high school basketball team, especially the famous high school basketball team like Inglewood High School, can probably be compared with a city table tennis team in China or a weaker provincial table tennis team youth team. Of course, the comparison of the basketball foundation and table tennis foundation in their respective sports events is used.

It can be said that Zhang Hao's mid-range shot is actually very good, right? Scott Collins, the head coach of Inglewood High School who is coaching the basic training of first-year high school players on the field next to him, is very satisfied with Zhang Hao's mid-range shot training. He is talented and hardworking.

But Zhang Hao has a clear understanding and knows that he is only at a good mid-level mid-range level in the NBA level, and feels weak.

But head coach Scott Collins has always been very satisfied with Zhang Hao's mid-range shot. In the California High School League, Zhang Hao's mid-range shot is the top. Zhang Hao has been playing for three or four years in college, has a solid basic skills and excellent athletic ability. Scott Collins feels that he has the opportunity to be selected in the middle and late stages of the first round of the NBA Draft and becomes an excellent instant-to-fight player.

But the problem is that Zhang Hao has a bad prospect in the college basketball team. Scott Collins also delayed some relationships before some first-tier league universities are willing to give Zhang Hao some basketball scholarships. As for the full basketball scholarship... This, when many NBA fans read the NBA draft information, they heard that which one of the undrafts received the full scholarship, and they felt that it seemed that they could get it casually. In fact, those undrafts may also be the top 1,000 basketball players in the world.

No university is willing to try to give a full basketball scholarship to a Chinese high school student. Although Zhang Hao performed very well in high school, it is not that there is no state basketball teacher who has played poorly in college...

Scott Collins is also very helpless now. He led an American junior high school basketball expert to China to play a friendly match and fell in love with Zhang Hao. Unexpectedly, it was his skin color and nationality that restricted Zhang Hao's growth.

Just when Scott Collins felt sorry for Zhang Hao, a call came. He stopped his guidance to the first-year high school rookie and went to answer the phone.

On the other hand, Zhang Hao, who was training, felt incredible!

After every shot, someone seemed to remind him that which part of the action was not standard enough, which muscle group was not exerting enough or could not make the best shot at will... He easily knew what he needed to strengthen his mid-range shot!

Which force movement needs to be strengthened, because the lack of strength in which part cannot improve the shooting to a better place... He seemed to know everything!

After practicing 3 combinations and 150 mid-range shots, Zhang Hao went directly to the gym in the stadium and began to practice latissimus dorsi and waist and abdomen. His previous shooting rights were used as warm-ups.

During the whole process, Zhang Hao was working hard to suppress his excitement so that he could train calmly, otherwise he would be easily injured, especially when practicing equipment, and he should not be injured at this time.

The coach's guidance is very good, but the coach is not himself after all, otherwise it would be enough for a person who is not good at shooting. Shooting is not just about teaching.

Scott Collins is very attentive to Zhang Hao's shooting guidance and also thinks that Zhang Hao's mid-range shooting is already excellent, but he still thinks that Zhang Hao has to go to college to polish his basic skills for three or four years. The fundamental reason is that Zhang Hao needs more training and more games to know what parts of his shooting need to be strengthened, or his muscle groups, or his strength details.

Zhang Hao felt that it might have to take at least two or three years to practice his shooting to the professional level step by step, because he had also improved his shooting by changing the details of his strength, strengthening strength training, etc. He also had a good mid-range shooting level in the NBA, not from the beginning, but gradually strengthened. But when he found out that he had something to strengthen, it often took a lot of time, and he could only practice at other times and practice constantly.

But today, after practicing for a while, Zhang Hao knew what he needed to strengthen! Obviously, this is the function of that growth card!

Before, Zhang Hao just tried it and saw what the growth card was to achieve the effect. Now that he knows, through the training of this technology, he can understand what he needs to strengthen, and then carry out targeted intensive training independently.

Through this growth card, Zhang Hao clearly felt what "enhanced comprehension ability of CITIC training" means!

Another effect is "Muscle Memory Strengthening in the CET training". Zhang Hao has not had an intuitive feeling yet. After all, he has only invested 150 times, but this is not urgent! It is still early now, and it is still almost half a year before the start of freshman year. You can take it slowly. At worst, you can knock on the door one by one at that time and ask for a trial training.

To take a step back, CITIC is very good, playing in the first-tier league and street competitions is also of great help.

So, practice is done!

On the other hand, the head coach Scott Collins, who had made the call, saw that Zhang Hao was able to train calmly and calmly when he was in such a dire situation. He did not ventilate when practicing strength. He knew very well which part of the muscles he was practicing, and it was obviously targeted training... Scott Collins felt even more regretful.

Back then, Scott Collins and his brother Doug Collins were both famous basketball experts in high school and entered the NCAA together. As a result, his brother entered the NBA and became an All-Star. Later, he also worked as a head coach in the NBA to coach the famous Michael Jordan. However, he performed in the NCAA and stayed at school to be an assistant coach at the basketball team after graduating from college... The main reason is that he lacks talent, lacks athletic ability, does not have any shooting.

Now, Scott Collins has become a high school physical education teacher and coach, and has trained a high school student who has the opportunity to enter the NBA, but has been blocked by the university threshold...

Suddenly, Scott Collins thought of the conversational fat man who was chatting with Pierce just now, saying that Zhang Hao was going to participate in the McDonald's All-Star Dunk Contest. After McDonald's All-Star, Adidas Training Camp...

Thinking of the phone call my brother had just called, Scott Collins had a magical idea, and he thought it was magical and... ridiculous!

...

After the afternoon of training, Zhang Hao returned to the apartment and dug out the invitation letter for the McDonald's All-Star Dunk Contest that he had received before, and also found an invitation letter for the Adidas Basketball Training Camp.

These two letters were sent after the California High School Basketball League final in January. He was busy sending resumes to major universities and putting this aside. He called the apartment to invite him and Pierce, but he also refused. When he called, he happened to be rejected by several schools and was completely in a state of disgrace.

Looking at the two invitations, I originally wanted to participate in the McDonald's slam dunk contest, but I saw Adidas training camp... I looked at the time. One started on the end of the month on the 25th, and the other started on May 10th next month.

The time between the two is staggered. The McDonald's All-Star starts on the 25th and ends on the 28th. Both games can be participated in. This year, they are held in Los Angeles. Zhang Hao, as a local high school basketball star, received invitations.

Anyway, one participant was also participant, and there was no difference between the two. Zhang Hao took out the information cards of the two invitation letters, filled them out, put them in the envelope and posted them with stamps, and threw them into the mailbox in front of the apartment.

In the evening, I went to have two burgers for dinner with Pierce, and then Zhang Hao returned to his room, took a shower, and prepared to go to bed.

Lying in bed, Zhang Hao did not want to wake up and this was a dream. Although the current situation was difficult, he might die after a year of returning home. Staying in the United States might add burden to his family, but it would not be a dead end. If he had the chance to live smoothly, this was enough. He would rather regard his future memories as a dream.

"I'm me, I'm Zhang Hao... I'm Zhang Hao."

Zhang Hao's belief became firm, and he was a little excited when he thought of the afternoon training.

Knowing how to become stronger and clearly having a bonus to strengthen training effects, Zhang Hao has a certain confidence in cracking the current bad situation. He thought of participating in Adidas training camp next, and if he could train mid-range shots to the top level in the NBA before that... Such a training camp would definitely be paid attention to by a lot of colleges.

Seeing the memory of this era with the eyes of the future, Zhang Hao felt regretful when he thought about himself before. He felt that he had missed many things. Fortunately, he is different now, and regret is useless. It is more important to try his best to seize the opportunities that will appear in the future!
