Chapter 631 Only time can tell you

At the end of September, the suspension continues.

The league has canceled the first two weeks of regular season, followed by the entire November and the first two weeks of December.

If the dispute between labor and capital cannot be concluded before the New Year, the entire season will be cancelled.

That is undoubtedly a loss-win result.

But this time, the Players Guild learned the lessons from 1999 and did not submit to the authorities no matter how threats the investors threatened them.

An idle person like Wei Xia can only focus on improving himself.

Assuming that the rematch in December is about 2 months left.

Wei Xia decided to continue to hone his shooting and body, and, he needed to find a real master to help him improve.

To this end, he found legendary trainer Tim Glover (tim     glover).

If you just talk about this name, many people may be confused.

Michael Jordan has a video of weightlifting in a white sleeveless sweatshirt. The trainer behind him who helped him protect is Grover.

In 1989, Jordan gradually realized that he needed more muscle to defeat the evil laws of the pistons. But at that time, there was almost no trainer who made him feel reliable. Grover recommended himself, and Jordan, who could not find a suitable candidate, decided to give him a month to prove himself. The seeds of the dynasty were planted that summer.

There is no need to mention the changes that Grover brings to Jordan.

He has worked with Jordan for seventeen years, received tens of millions of dollars from Jordan, and became one of the most well-known trainers in the NBA.

Some people may say that everyone trains the same way, but at best, Jordan is just a golden sign for Grover to play a reputation. Without reliable training and a well-known reputation, he cannot become a legend among trainers.

In 1990, Scotty Pippen became his client.

Since then, Pipen has been in the All-A-Series for seven years and has been selected for the All-Defensive Team for ten consecutive years. His transformation in 1991 was dramatic. It can be said that Jordan achieved the Bulls dynasty, but without Pipen's arm help, would the Bulls in the 1990s still have the dominance we know?

Promoting Pipen to one level is just the beginning of Grover's legend.

In the summer of 1992, Charles Barkley also became his client.

We all know who robbed Jordan's MVP in 1993, and who also knew who forced the strongest Jordan in the finals - well, of course, it was the Suns' group of short, slow or thin guards, how could it be the Fliggy who averaged 27 points, 13 rebounds and 5.5 per game?

In 1994, Hakeem Olajuwon also became his client.

What happened in the next two years? Well...

In 2005, Dwyne Wade also became his client. In the 2006 finals, was it that the referee helped Wade more, or Grover's training gave Wade a body that could withstand the beating. How do we share the contributions of the two?

In 2007, Grover became Kobe's trainer.

The only accident - in 2009, McGrady invited Grover to help him rejuvenate, but Grover is not a god. He can only help players in his peak period improve. He cannot restore McGrady's athletic ability at his peak period.

Then, it was September 2011.

The training team composed of Weisha and Grover reached an agreement on the "fatal evolution" of the training team.

From the end of September, Fatal Evolution will work with Wei Xia for three years.

When Wei Xia saw Grover's first face, he said his thoughts bluntly: "How do I have a jump shot from Michael Jordan?"

At first glance, it is a fantasy.

Jordan is the No. 1 mid-range pitcher in history. In terms of output and efficiency, no one is stronger than him. The only ones close to Nowitzki and the future Durant.

Having Jordan's jump shot is equivalent to having the strongest in-line shooting threat in history.

If there is this threat, as long as you hold the ball in hand, it cannot be ignored, which is good for supporting the entire team and breaking through.

Is this the jump shot that Wei Xia is referring to? Of course, not.

Kobe said that he is not the best user of the turnover jump shot.

With his personality, the only person who can make him admit that he is better than him is.

Wei Xia looked through the video of the Bulls game in the 1990s, and combined it with the video, she compared it with Kobe in his memory and other top wings in the league.

Kobe's beauty is very difficult, and he is accurate and he is unreasonable in killing people;

McGrady's freehand and poetic imagination;

And... no, it's gone.

Neither Carter nor Iverson were the second position of Jordan.

Jordan is different from them. He does not have as many high-difficulty shots as Kobe, nor does he have complex picturesque movements, nor is he as freehand as McGrady. He just does simple movements, with pure steps and unfathomable power - including core strength and lower limb strength - and gives people a calm sense of solidity at the moment of jump shot.

That's a very difficult feeling.

Only by watching his game can we know what Wei Xia is referring to.

Jordan's rebound speed is not the fastest in history, his elasticity is not the strongest in history, and even his shooting is not the most accurate in history, but his jump shot, the sense of power and stability between the ups and downs, and the moment he took the shot, it seemed as if he had pressed the pause button on the game. He was the only one, and he only felt this way.

The reason why Wei Xia invited Grover instead of asking Jordan himself was because Jordan did not have such a jump shot that was very easy to lift from the beginning. In 1989, his jump shot began to be finalized. During the Bulls' First Dynasty, it was the peak of his personal ability. All his skills were at the top of the league, and the feeling of jump shots was not so obvious. After returning from playing baseball, Jordan reshaped his muscle structure. Although his athletic ability was incomparable to before retirement, the beauty and visual effects of jump shots rose to a higher level.

Wei Xia believes that the experience of playing baseball is not just allowing Jordan to experience the suffering of mortals.

It also gave him a chance to rebuild his body.

And his body designer is Grover.

Grover understood Wei Xia's meaning, and he was very surprised.

Over the years, he has trained countless clients, and only Wei Xia comes up and gets the right one.

"I often heard Kobe mention you before, and he said that you are the most attentive and patient person he has ever met." Grover smiled.

Wei Xia felt ashamed of himself. He praised Kobe in front of others very few times. Although he placed Kobe's historical status at the third place in history, second only to Jordan and Dr. Naismith.

——Yes, Jordan is the second in history in his mind, and Dr. Naismith, the creator of the sport, is the eternal god.

Wei Xia listened quietly.

Grover said later: "However, Michael may have the most perfect body structure in history."

"Why do you say that?"

"He has developed perfect muscles and can control every muscle under his feet for him to drive." Grover provided Weisha with a more mysterious concept. "He knows when to start speed and can use the most appropriate speed. Moreover, he rarely attacks with all his strength. It is not that he does not need to do it, but that he knows how much effort he can execute his opponent. The most difficult thing is that after several comprehensive transformations of his muscle structure, he still only takes one summer to restore his body to perfect state. Michael in 1996 had the most perfect body in history."

Grover said it very well, it was deeply touching and memorable, but Wei Xia still didn't understand what he needed to do.

Weisha didn't know if Grover had reservations about him, and he said Jordan was too good.

Is it really human to control every muscle in your body?

But he agreed with what Grover said that Jordan in 1996 had the most perfect body structure in history. He may not be the strongest Jordan, but the most perfect Jordan. A perfect body and perfect athletic ability are almost impossible to have both. It is difficult for athletes in the golden age to convince themselves to work hard to hone their bodies. Only when they feel that youth is absent on the field can they change.

Wei Xia, who is only 27 years old, decided to do what Jordan, 33, did.

"I am willing to receive all the hard training." Wei Xia made a serious statement.

At first, Grover thought he was like Kobe, Wade and others before.

He has a good attitude and strong execution, but there will not be too many things beyond the scope. Grover helped them train and strengthen their bodies, but never helped them completely change their bodies like Jordan.

Because they don't need it.

It seems that Wei Xia doesn't need it either.

At the age of 27, everything is beautiful. The traces left by the acl tear on him are no more obvious than the bag stinged by a fly.

In October, Wei Xia began training to transform his body according to the training plan tailored by Grover for him.

The process is boring and hard.

Only athletes who can persevere are those with higher pursuits.

Wei Xia described his daily training as a game where he could not catch the ball but needed to play a full 48 minutes.

The suspension continues, and the new season looks far away. Wei Xia, who won the Asian Championships championship, disappeared from the media's sight.

In the short term, he will not change anything, but the seeds have been planted.

Just like the seed planted by Jordan in the summer of 1989.

Only time can tell you what kind of big tree it will grow into.
