When the twelve players heard Coach Famar's words, the expressions on each of them immediately became three factions.

The first party is the old players, and they all have a happy face, as if they are about to complete a happy fun thing. It seems that this kind of training confrontation between the old and the new on the first day of the training is their tradition, at least the tradition of Coach Famar.

Some old players are rookies of the year and become old birds. They were bullied by seniors who were overwhelmed by them in the past. Today, it was finally their turn to bully the newcomers!

The second party is naturally the newcomers who are still in a ignorant state. They don’t even figure out where the toilets in the UCLA gym are, and they are going to play games with these seniors.

Several newcomers are not even familiar with each other's names. How to play against old players who have been teammates for at least a year?

In addition to these two expressions, there is a third one, that is Gan Guoyang.

After listening to Coach Famar's advice, Gan Guoyang was neither happy nor frightened. He neither felt that this was a good opportunity to show himself, nor did he feel that such a game would embarrass him.

He just felt that coach Famal's behavior was boring and old-fashioned.

Gan Guoyang knew that Famal just wanted to use this method to give a warning to the arrogant newcomers, so that the newcomers could understand that college competitions are different from high school.

This will also facilitate Famal to manage and train this group of players in the future.

Gan Guoyang disagreed with this. He felt that basketball players should have a sense of arrogance and a momentum of not admitting defeat and challenging him.

On this point, Bellman had a profound impact on Gan Guoyang.

Belman often shouted loudly to Gan Guoyang, but he allowed Gan Guoyang to speak back, and even allowed Gan Guoyang to use his performance on the court to fight back his criticism.

On the one hand, Gan Guoyang respects Bellman's criticism and opinions very much, but on the other hand, he never obeys the order, but has his own ideas and ways of playing.

Such two masters and apprentices are players and coaches, and friends off the court.

Therefore, the expression on Gan Guoyang's face was different from that of others. He held his chin, neither looking around nor taking a deep breath with nervousness, but instead looked indifferent and even felt a little disdainful.

His disdain was particularly obvious among the crowd, and he was immediately noticed by Famal.

"Mr. Gan, I wonder if you have any opinions on my arrangement?" Famal asked Gan Guoyang with a name.

Although Gan Guoyang is not well-known among ordinary fans, he is already quite famous in the California basketball industry. Many coaches who have seen him play basketball think he is extremely talented.

So those old team members have more or less heard of Gan Guoyang. When Famal called Gan Guoyang's name, they immediately turned around and looked at the unique yellow skin to see how he would answer.

"Dear Mr. Famal, how to arrange player training is the most important responsibility of the coach, and the unshirkable responsibility of the player is to obey the coach's arrangements." Gan Guoyang replied to Famal without mercy and neither said good nor said bad.

Famal touched a soft nail, and his face was obviously unhooked. His face, which looked a little like Brother Octopus, had stretched longer.

"Very good, Mr. Gan, since you are willing to obey all arrangements, I will arrange for you to sit on the bench. Of course, maybe you can be an excellent head coach to direct the team's offense and defense." Famal said with a gloomy face.

Famal's arrangement was unexpected by Gan Guoyang. This was also cruel enough to not let him play!

"Okay, everyone do some warm-up exercises, you five, be prepared for the game." Famal didn't care about what to say about Gan Guoyang, and began to arrange this extremely unbalanced new and old confrontation match.

Whether it is the old player who is secretly happy or the newcomer who is nervous, they take off their coats and start warming up.

Gan Guoyang, who was left aside, was full of anger and had to sit on the bench and cross his legs to prepare for the game.

There were five people on the new team, three defenders and two forwards, and no center; the old team happened to gather a team with five positions, and the extra one was the referee.

"I'll give you the technical statistics list and count all the competition data." Famal came to Gan Guoyang and threw him a notebook and a pen.

It seems that he doesn't want Gan Guoyang to rest assured and watch the game, so he can do technical statistics.

This is Gan Guoyang's old profession. When he was in Palo Alto, he was often pushed to the bench by Bellman to do technical statistics, saying that he wanted to train his ability to analyze the situation on the field.

But in the past, he didn't play training because he was too strong, but now he was punished for offending this coach.

After the warm-up, Famal gave each newcomer a red training vest with six numbers 1-6. This is the logo jersey for the newcomer training match.

Gan Guoyang was sent to a No. 6 item. He looked at No. 11 that he was not familiar with. Naturally, he was unhappy, but whether he could play was still a question, and it didn't matter if he thought about it.

This simple team training match is about to begin. The newcomers are like cannon fodder that has just been sent to the battlefield, and their steps on the floor are a bit vague.

"Look at your promising prospects, you have never played in the game!" Gan Guoyang slandered in his heart. He felt that there seemed to be no teammates in this group of newcomers who were particularly worth looking forward to.

Indeed, since John Wooden retired and UCLA failed to defend his title in 1976, the team's record has been getting worse every year.

The team has poor performance, so it is naturally difficult to attract talented players. UCLA is no match for North Carolina, Houston, Georgetown, and Kentucky, which are now in the limelight.

An outstanding genius like Gan Guoyang is also an inside player. If it weren't for the fact that he was a yellow man, and Qian Hui didn't understand the situation of American college basketball and Bellman did not interfere in his college application, UCLA would not have gotten such a player.

Now, I don’t cherish such a player, and the coach even let him sit on the bench, which has also laid the root of disaster for a series of things in the future.

"Bee!" With the whistle of the guest referee, the training match officially began.

The 7-foot-tall player Gan Guoyang saw in the team before, Gray, easily beat the opponent's new forward in the jump ball - he was only 6-9.

UCLA team 1 starts offense.

UCLA University's most famous UCLA tactics summarized and compiled by meritorious coach John Wooden. The core idea of ​​this tactic is to mobilize the offensive enthusiasm of every player on the field during offense, and create scoring opportunities for each player through continuous cover and running positions.

Like other famous tactical ideas in history, UCLA tactics is not a collection of old-fashioned running routines, but a basketball philosophy and a strategic idea.

He will not ask for what kind of players he must be equipped with, but will exert the power of this tactic based on the characteristics of the players so that every player can play a role.

In the history of UCLA, whether it is to have an offensive super killer like Jabbar or the most versatile center Bill Walton, John Wooden can teach according to his aptitude and maximize their role in the system.

Gan Guoyang has long heard of this, but unfortunately, the coach of UCLA is no longer the legendary Mr. Wu Deng, but the Famal with a stinky face.

Famal seems to have no interest in the classic UCLA tactics in traditional UCLA, because Gan Guoyang saw from the placement and running of the first team that this was a telescopic tactic that began to be popular in the 1970s.

The classic position of UCLA tactics is to take the position 1-4, one person is at the high position and four people are at the bottom line; and the telescopic tactics are also called the line tactics, which are generally to take the position 2-3, and two people at the high position are at the bottom line.

Although both focus on pick-and-roll, cover and fast conduction, UCLA's tactics are richer and more versatile and more flexible in offensive choices; while line tactics focus on routine coordination to run out of open positions for jump shot attacks or layups.

Therefore, UCLA tactics are more extensive and profound and difficult to use well. Once integrated, it is extremely powerful.

The telescopic tactics are simple and easy to learn, the routines are fixed, and easy to get started. It is best to use them to deal with rookies.

Sure enough, after the second team's newcomers destroyed a pass from the first team and the ball went out of bounds, the first team used an empty-handed running position to create a huge space at the bottom corner.

The server directly sent the ball to the shooting guard who was squatting there, and the latter easily shot and made a shot, 2:0.

"These idiots are already at a disadvantage in height. They are so rigid in their eyes, and they are led by their opponents' tactics." Gan Guoyang clearly saw the characteristics of both sides off the court.

The telescopic tactic is used to deal with people's gaze. Since its name is "scopic", it uses the flexibility of the position to pull the defensive space. The defender is easily overwhelmed by several covers, and eventually reveals huge loopholes.

It was the second team in the new team to attack. They had three defenders, so there was no problem in spending halftime.

But after landing on the position, they didn't know what to do. The five people had never trained together, and they didn't know what their characteristics were.

The point guard didn't know what to do when he was driving the ball. Finally, he saw the No. 4 power forward in the ribs, and after all, he was a single tactic in the inside line, so he hung the ball into his hands.

However, the gap between 6-foot-9 and 7-foot-7 was really big. Under Gray's long arms, the No. 4 power forward arched in, and there was no chance at all.

He had to pass the ball out, but he failed to cooperate and was cut off by a small forward from a team.

The first team launched a fast attack, but the second team had no sense of returning to defense at all. They were easily scored by the first team, 4:0.

"Shit! I don't know if I retreat, I have to pull it down!" Gan Guoyang muttered on the court. Except for the sentence "Shit", the rest are all in Chinese, so that no one can understand it.

Although he only played two goals, the new players from the second team were obviously lacking in confidence and started to play randomly.

There is no way, a group of freshmen have never practiced together, and the lineup is not reasonable, so how can they play with seniors in college? They can only use their personal abilities, rely on a few simple pick-and-rolls and running positions, and no matter who holds the ball, they will rush in.

But there was a 7-foot-long man Gray in the three-second zone of the first team, and no one in the second team could restrain his energy, so that he could devote himself to slapping flies and slamming the rookies in.

In this way, the two sides agreed to a 15-minute reduction in the first and second half. After 6 minutes of the first half, the first team had already led by 13 points with 16:3.

The second team only relied on one forced layup and two free throws to score a total of three points.

"Play your spirits, rookies, this is your first game. I don't want to see you perform like this." Famal, who was standing on the sidelines, shouted. This training match is actually an important means for him to inspect newcomers.

When the first team relied on a jump shot from the horn position to score two points, the score had reached a huge gap of 18:3 and 15 points, and the game only took less than 7 minutes.

"Okay, timeout, new players, you should go out and rest, think about what method should be used to break such an embarrassing situation, instead of doing nothing on the court without any achievements." Famal also saw that if he continued to play like this, the confidence of the new team players in the second team would be completely wiped out, and he didn't want to do too much, so he gave a timeout.

"Hey, buddy, what's wrong with you? They made it like this on the first day?" Gan Guoyang said as he saw the other five people falling down in dejection.

Gan Guoyang said this at this time, more like ridicule and provoking. The five of them squinted at him and ignored him, and sat on the bench one by one.

Seeing this, Gan Guoyang immediately brought some water from the side for them to drink, and then continued, "Don't do this, buddy, I don't think they are of any good. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to even get into the NCAA 48!"

"But at least they often train together, and they are a tactical team, but what about us? What are we? Are we casually pulled from the street?" someone said with a grumbling voice.

"Who said you were casually brought from the street? This is UCLA. We can come here, which means we are still excellent enough, right? We just need time to adapt. I think 7 minutes is enough. I still remember when I first played the warm-up match, I was so nervous that I couldn't even find the basket anywhere! But soon I calmed down and used my defense and rebounds to let the opponent understand that I was not a rookie and I was not easy to bully!" Gan Guoyang encouraged others with his own experience.

"Then what should we do? We are not familiar with each other at all, how should we fight?" someone asked again.

At this time, Gan Guoyang had subtly become the backbone of this newcomer team.

"It's okay, we still have two minutes of rest time, so let's discuss and arrange it together. Come on, I have a book here... Oh, your statistics are really terrible... In this way, everyone tells you the best ability, and I will record it behind your number. Then we will use each person's ability as much as possible."

Everyone looked at each other after listening to Gan Guoyang's suggestion, and didn't know if this guy was useful to do this, but they had to do it as a living person.

Gan Guoyang recorded everyone's strengths and then assigned them tactics like a coach, especially defensive tactics, which was also taught by Bellman by words and deeds.

When people are lost and helpless, they will take a straw as a life-saving treasure. Now, for the five newcomers who have been hit by the soul, Gan Guoyang, a newcomer like them, has become that life-saving straw.

So, everyone was listening to his arrangements carefully.

Famal watched Gan Guoyang command and arrange the arrangements on the bench like a coach, with blue veins exposed on his forehead, and he felt a little angry.

The purpose of his newcomers and old players playing basketball is to slash the newcomers' agility, and then provide some guidance and arrangements for them when they are most helpless, so as to achieve immediate results and establish their own authority.

And Gan Guoyang not only gave him soft nails to his face, but now he is even acting as a coach. Is this going to challenge his authority on the first day?

According to the scout report, although this guy is a yellow man, he is an absolute basketball genius and is likely to be the hope of the UCLA revival.

Even so, Famal did not allow a newcomer to challenge himself.
