Chapter 27 Curry 1
Christmas is a traditional festival for foreigners, but just like the Chinese New Year's 30, the foreigners also celebrate Christmas Eve.
Early in the morning on Christmas Eve, Curry drove Lin Yi back to his home in North Carolina. At Stephen's suggestion, Lin Yi felt that it was necessary to put the matter of learning a driver's license on the agenda.
"Welcome back, Stephen!" Stephen Curry's mother, Sonya Curry, is notoriously beautiful. Seeing her son come home, Sonya and Stephen hugged.
"Mom, this is what I always tell you, my partner Lin, the coolest big man in America." Curry introduced Lin Yi to Sonya.
"Auntie, hello." Why do you have the illusion of going to your girlfriend's house? Lin Yi and Curry's mother also hugged.
"Oh! Brother, you've come back, that idiot Seth was abused by me again." Curry's sister, Sidel Curry, came out of the house, Dell Curry's genes are really powerful, Siddell Curry Her physical fitness is also quite good, but she plays volleyball and is now very famous among high school students in the United States.
Cescurry is Curry's younger brother. The Curry family is really a sharpshooter. Although Cescurry will not play much in the NBA in the future, he is also a career three-point shooter with a rate of more than 40%.
Cescurry is also a freshman this year and plays for Liberty University. Liberty also belongs to the Southern League. Lin Yi was not there when the brothers faced off for the first time this year, but Lin Yi should be able to catch up next time the brothers face off.
Although Cescurry is not as famous as his brother in the NBA, there is no doubt that he is Liberty's top scorer, averaging close to 20 points per game.
Later, under the influence of Stephen Curry's entry into the NBA, Duke University, which rejected Stephen, opened the door to Cescurry. In people's eyes, Duke University was making up for their regret for missing Stephen.
Cescurry is slightly shorter than Stephen, and he is not as cute as Stephen. Stephen is more like his mother Sonya, and Seth is more like his father Dale.
"Stephen, I watched the video of the showdown between you and Arizona State that my father brought back. Is this Lin?" Lin Yi is definitely a giant in front of these two brothers.
Lin Yi and Cescurry shook hands. In the future 2016/17 season when the Dallas Mavericks (Lone Ranger) played badly, Cescurry had a pretty good performance, but it's a pity that Cescurry is not like his brother. Ball-handling skills, otherwise, the Curry family may be born with a super shooter. Don't think that ball-handling skills can be practiced if you want, but not everyone is perverted like Stephen Curry and Westbrook...
How many perverted NBA are there?
It took Curry just one season to complete the transition from shooting guard to point guard in the NCAA.
Westbrook was an elite defender in college. In the NBA, although his dribbling was not fancy, it was definitely enough to match his explosive physicality.
Really look at the growth of these NBA stars from the beginning again, and you will find that everyone is a pervert.
Including Yao Ming in the past, don't believe that the Rockets chose Yao Ming for the Chinese market. How could there be a Chinese market in 2002? The United States and China were in a commotion because of Wang Zhizhi's incident. The reason why the Rockets chose Yao Ming is very simple. Never seen a 226cm big man with such solid footwork and soft touch.
When the Rockets and the Clippers played, Yao Ming was faster than Kaman. You can imagine Yao Ming's talent. Don't think that there is a Yao Ming, and the next one will be Yao Ming as long as his height is similar to Yao Ming.
"Brother Stephen, was Lin really about the same height as me before?" Sidl looked at his brother in disbelief and said.
Stephen shrugged, "Yeah, I haven't been one-on-one with him since he grew taller."
Just when a few people were chatting in the house,
Dale Curry also drove back, and Dale, who was arranged by Sonya to buy groceries, joined the discussion group after putting the things back in the kitchen.
"You guys have been incredible lately, I've watched a lot of your games and honestly I can't give you any advice, just like when Olajuwon was just learning to play basketball, his coach didn't think of him at all. It can be like that in the future." Dell Curry looked at Lin Yi seriously.
"My eyes won't fool me, you have the highest speed of any 7-footer I've ever seen in basketball," Dell Curry said.
Lin Yi's latest height has reached 216 cm, which is getting closer to his final bone age test result.
His weight has also grown to 109 kilograms, and McClop told Lin Yi that his best weight is about 120 kilograms.
"I don't recommend that you gain weight like Yao Ming, because it will definitely affect your speed. 120 kg can already allow you to deal with all the centers in the league now." McClop said very confidently.
Because in this era, the NBA has no center who can play back.
As for Howard?
Even at his peak, Howard was like a kitten in front of Yao Ming. Centers generally rely heavily on outside teammates to play the ball. Let's see which guards Yao Ming has worked with, and then look at the people around Howard. At least Howard still has Turkoglu, and Nelson's three-pointer at his peak.
And even in the period of LeBron James alone, Howard's singles success rate per round is not as efficient as Yao Ming and O'Neal.
It was not without reason that the Magic gave up him back then, and the main reason was Olajuwon's conclusion.
Howard's muscles are too stiff. The most critical reason for his inability to learn Olajuwon's footsteps is stiffness. Howard is a typical upper body strength is better than lower body strength, so he is very easy to walk or stand unsteady when doing footwork. , which also makes it difficult to guarantee the success rate of his basket hooks.
120kg is enough.
More importantly, McClop is worried that the weight of more than 120 kilograms will affect Lin Yi's speed.
Lin Yi listened carefully to what Dell Curry said. After all, he was a shooter family. A few people chatted and talked about three-pointers. Even Dell Curry was interested in trying three-pointers with the children.
At this time Sonya came out of the kitchen, "You can go to the competition, but you must wash your hands before eating!"
Just leave, Curry's yard is a basketball court. There is no way. Even if he leaves the NBA, Dell Curry's love for basketball will be indelible.
"When I was a kid, I used to compete with my dad here a lot. I couldn't beat him at first, but after I entered high school, I rarely lost." Curry looked at the basketball hoop and told Lin Yi said.
"After entering college, my dad asked me to practice the NBA three-point line. I still remember that day, Dell said confidently, hey Stephen, come and try the NBA three-point line, this is not the kind it used to be. Playing the house." Curry's face was filled with happiness and pride when he mentioned the memories.
"What's the result?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
"As a result, I shot 10 times in a row and hit 10 times. My dad asked me when I had the NBA three-point range, and I said I couldn't say it well, and I felt like I could make it, even if it was a long three-pointer, as long as After halftime, I feel like I can shoot!" After Stephen Curry finished speaking, it was Lin Yi's turn to smack his tongue. I have only seen these stories of Curry in documentaries before, but when you really listen to him dictate, you Still will be surprised.
Stephen Curry really is a natural shooter.
