…

After the draft, Lin Ying did not return to Denver. Instead, he went to Phoenix with Durant, Holiday and Jimmy Butler.

I had previously agreed to train with Nash this summer, but many more people came than planned.

Nash was also shocked when he saw this battle.

Those who didn’t know better thought they were here to cause trouble.

Of course, after the training started, the two groups separated.

Nash and Lin Ying were in a group, while Durant was playing with his two juniors.

"Passing is a skill that requires very high vision, awareness, and even tacit cooperation with teammates. It is more difficult than many people think."

Nash is an old passer when he opens his mouth.

"But these are all things you already have."

Lin Ying: Just like Versailles.

"But no basketball skill is independent. To pass the ball well, you must also have enough offensive threats and excellent ball control skills."

These two points are what Lin Ying lacks now.

Although his ball control has been improving, it is still not enough.

This is actually the key reason for his lack of offensive threat.

A very simple example, if your ability to hold the ball is strong enough, you can break through the opponent and score before the double attack, instead of waiting for the double attack to come up and then pass the ball.

Therefore, if you want to practice passing, you must first control the ball.

Nash's ball-handling training method is very special.

He first showed Lin Ying a piece of... one-finger dribbling.

As the name suggests, it is to use the middle finger to dribble the ball quickly and at a low angle.

Then there is the three-finger dribbling, and then the fingertip figure-8 dribbling...

Lin Ying was dumbfounded by this operation.

So... showy?

Is this ball control?

He is clearly playing the piano!

Then something even better came.

Dribble the ball in multiple directions with one hand, from the side to the front of the body, then to the back, and then to the V shape with one hand.

The ball feels like it's stuck to your hand.

Finally, there is a period of dribbling while traveling in a circle.

It is to perform a series of dribbling operations such as acceleration, crotch movement, and back body in an elliptical circle of a fixed size.

The man and the ball are one, dazzled.

The entire training process only takes about ten minutes, but the technical content is the same.

By the time she finished watching it, Lin Ying was already full of anticipation.

Once you’ve seen enough, it’s time to get started.

He first learned to dribble with one finger.

This training is mainly to improve the ball feel and reduce mistakes.

Because many times during the game it is easy for you to lose full control of the ball. At this time, it is very important to use your fingers to control the ball.

And just like Nash said that basketball skills will not be divided separately, this will actually be of great benefit to passing.

Because most of the time when passing a ball, you rely on your fingers to correct the angle.

The flexibility of your fingers determines the accuracy of your transmission and control.

After the first day of training, Lin Ying felt that his fingers were a little numb.

This training makes my fingers a bit useless.

Lin Ying massaged her fingers on the sidelines.

At this time, Nash came over and threw him a bottle of water, then sat down next to him.

The two chatted for a while, and Nash became concerned about his transaction.

"Do you know where you will go?"

Nash took a sip of water and asked.

Of course he didn't know where Lin Ying could choose to go.

So his inquiry was more out of concern for Lin Ying, and...

Will Lin Ying join the Suns?

Among the previous rumors, Lin Ying and the Suns were involved.

"That's almost it."

Lin Ying gave a rough answer.

After the last chat with Kobe, he had communicated with Walken Dean.

Although Woken Dean previously said that they have a summer to deal with matters, such matters as transactions are basically completed in early July.

Even a deal like Garnett's move to the Celtics, which was only officially announced in August, was negotiated before.

Because early July is the time for free agent signing.

If he keeps putting it off, both the Nuggets and his new team will miss opportunities to strengthen.

Of course, although Lin Ying and Walken Dean had similar conversations, there was no result yet.

Because when it comes to transactions, it doesn’t mean that if you have had contact before, you will definitely be able to negotiate.

This will involve a lot of transaction details.

No one wants to suffer a loss in a transaction, as one detail may cause the transaction to fall through.

There are so many examples of this in the NBA, it can even be said that most of the rumors you see that fail to come to fruition are basically because of this.

Furthermore, like the previous Rockets trade example, maybe after the general managers of both parties have finished the negotiation, the boss gives you a one-shot veto, which is completely useless.

So Lin Ying gave Walken Dean a list of expectations before.

If the first desired team cannot go, he will go to the second one, and so on, ranking the six teams in order.

So if you ask him where he went in the end, he won't know.

This is why he said the same thing.

However, the draft is over, and the door to the July free market is about to open.

The results of his transaction should come soon.

"Would you like my advice?"

Nash then spoke.

Lin Ying nodded, saying of course.

Each super giant has his own unique experience, which will eventually become a unique experience.

Kobe's previous advice to him to be selfish and follow his heart can be said to be a reflection of his many years of career.

This should also be true for Nash's next insights.

And unlike Kobe, Nash took the initiative to give the advice, and it was more likely that he felt that it was useful to Lin Ying.

"Competing for a championship as a star player is a very stressful thing."

The first words Nash spoke revealed another level of understanding.

Champions are actually divided into two categories: one is as a leading star, and the other is as a non-leading star.

Of course, a pure champion like Sun Yue is not within the scope of this discussion.

"If you are lucky enough, you can do what Kobe did last season. If you are less lucky, you will be where I am now."

Nash couldn't help laughing to himself when he said this.

That smile looked a little sad.

For a superstar, not having a championship in his career is very painful.

Ewing, Malone, Barkley, Iverson, including Nash, the uncrowned king has always talked about their quality.

In contrast, Nowitzki and Pierce, one championship has greatly improved his historical status.

And there's nothing wrong with what Nash said. If Gasol hadn't been traded, Kobe might have gone to the Bulls.

It is still unclear whether there will be a fourth or even more championships.
