Before entering the University of Kentucky, Hood's future was also bright.

The blonde and blue-eyed white lad is a graduate of North Hopkins High School in Madisonville, Kentucky.

In his senior year, he won the honor of Mr. Kentucky Basketball with an outstanding performance of 29.4 points and 12.1 rebounds per game.

Calipari recruited Joe Hood on his first summer at the University of Kentucky.

Hood agreed to Kenda’s scholarship invitation without hesitation.

After all, being able to play for the hometown team is the dream of every basketball player.

What's more, he can play under a famous coach like Calipari, and the University of Kentucky is also a wealthy family in NCAA.

Unfortunately, after entering Kenda, Hood's football skills began to stagnate.

His physical development has entered a delayed period, and his technical and tactical level and confrontational ability have improved very slowly.

In his first season at Kenda, his average playing time was more than 2 minutes in 38 games, which was only a little higher than Li Liang.

Li Liang is 0.

In the later stage, he basically evolved into the water dispenser No. 2, plus the tactical messenger on the field.

In his sophomore year, he played for more than 30 minutes in total, and was only higher than Li Liang.

During the game, Li Liang was responsible for cheering and watching the game.

Hu De is a little stronger than Li Liang. He knows more tactics and can assist Kalipari in tactical explanations.

After graduation, this kid will most likely embark on the path of coaching.

Of course, he had not given up playing basketball at this time.

After missing a championship season due to injury, he stood on the court again.

His persistence in basketball is undoubtedly worthy of admiration, and therefore Li Liang has a good relationship with him.

After all, people with iron heads are attractive to each other.

At the beginning of the training, Hood stood at the bottom line with the ball and looked at Li Liang.

He found that Li Liang seemed to be a little different from the past?

When I went to see the president last time, Hood felt that Li Liang had changed.

This time I changed my jersey and saw where the change was.

The calves and arms became stronger, and the whole person became stronger and tightened.

It's like a loose spring, which suddenly becomes compact and full of power.

Hood had only been training for more than a week, and when he saw Li Liang like this, he felt a little nervous.

This is unscientific. In the past, Li Liang has always been the leader of the entire team.

In defensive training, Li Liang's main function is to make players find confidence.

Why do I feel that I have no confidence in facing Li Liang this time?

"Beep!"

Calipari blew the whistle to start the exercise, the first group.

Hood dribbled towards the center line, Li Liang lowered his center of gravity, kept a certain distance from Hood, and began to defend against others.

Hu De wanted to speed up and throw Li Liang away, and Li Liang followed him with an acceleration and pressed tightly.

From the bottom line to the middle line, in just a distance of more than ten meters, Li Liang's follow-up defense can be called four words: inseparable!

The scale is very good, not far or near, making Hood feel that he can't get rid of him at all.

When it arrived at the center line, Hood passed the ball back to Alex Perisrez, and Li Liang ran back to the baseline to continue the defense just now.

Perisreth is a strong black guy, dribbling is not his strength.

During the dribbling process, Li Liang added a little bit of confrontation, and Perisreus' dribble was a little stumbled.

He barely reached the center line and then passed it back to Hood. Li Liang then returned to the bottom line and started the third round.

Round after round, a total of ten rounds, Li Liang performed quite well.

The horizontal crossing steps are very smooth, the side moves quickly, and the distance is properly controlled.

This defensive feeling, if you understand the ball, you will know it at a glance. It is the material for a defensive player.

Kalipari saw it all the time and thought to himself, how could this kid Bruce Li make such rapid progress?

In the past, Li Liang was controlled by his reaction speed and was prone to slow down when defending. This slowness was the rhythm of being cleaned.

Today, Li Liang's performance in the training ground was completely gone.

On the contrary, he can not only keep up with the ball holder's speed, but also occasionally make some predictions.

In fact, this is normal. Li Liang's basic defensive ability on the outside has reached 60 points, and the same is true for horizontal movement, so there is no problem with speed and skills.

Yesterday, it was subjected to conditioning reflex by Fraser's cloak.

Now he always feels that he is wearing a cloak while defending, and if he doesn't keep up or bumps into his opponent, he will be powered.

It seems that this electricity is effective.

After ten rounds passed, Kalipari said: "Okay, let's strengthen the confrontation and protect against each other, and require physical contact!"

It's time to start to increase intensity.

Li Liang just finished the warm-up, and he wiped the sweat beads from his forehead, preparing to strengthen the confrontation.

Hu De immediately felt something was wrong, and the momentum of Li Liang standing in front of him made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Those defensive strong men in NBA will have strong momentum when one-on-one to deter and overwhelm the opponent.

The typical one is Kevin Garnett. His fierce eyes and superb defense skills often make the ball holder at a loss.

Of course, Li Liang could not reach the level of the Wolf King, but he already had some charm.

Hood dribbled from the bottom line, and he unconsciously slowed down. The dribbler pulled back, fearing that Li Liang would intercept the ball.

Actually, Li Liang hasn't posted it yet.

When Li Liang stepped forward to guard the situation, Hu De immediately felt a sense of oppression coming to his face.

This kind of oppression will only occur when you match the starting players on the team before.

No, the Wildcats' starting lineup may not be as good as Li Liang and have such good defense.

Hood found that it was difficult for him to dribble and advance. Li Liang kept exerting confrontation, and at the same time he moved and predicted it well, resolving Hood's acceleration one by one.

If it is placed in the official game, if 8 seconds does not pass the half, Hood will violate the rules.

"shi-t!" Hood finally squeezed all the way to the center line, and he pushed his butt all the way.

"Are you okay?" Li Liang saw that Hu De was so rough that he realized that he had just become a little stronger.

After all, Hood has just recovered from injury and has a major injury like an anterior cruciate ligament torn, so he should be more at ease in the fight.

"It's okay, continue later." As Hood said, he threw the ball to Perisris who was waiting at the bottom line.

Perisris got the ball, and relied on his strength, regardless of the slightest, he first took the ball and rushed towards Li Liang.

The two collided with each other with a "bang", and Perisrius wanted to knock Li Liang away and then speed up to get rid of it.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong you are, Perisreus, can you be as strong as Artest?

Can you beat the jeep of Atai?

Young man, you are too naive! You know Chong Chong?

Li Liang tightened his torso and did not take the initiative to exert force. He was hit by Perisris a few times.

The other person just fell back a little, and his feet were not moving at all. How to prevent them?

This young man, Perisreus, is still too young.

Seeing that he had not broken open the space, he wanted to change the ball.

Li Liang would not give him such a chance. He turned around and took off the ball in his hand.

The ball rolled back to the bottom line, and Perisreth had to run back to pick up the ball in a panic and start from scratch.

Perisrez is also a well-known player in high school, ranking 17th among the top 100 high school students listed in ESPN this year.

He is strong in physique and has a very popular potential on the front line.

But obviously he became strong and his dribbling skills were not very good, and Kalipari saw this.

He didn't originally take a fancy to Perisris's holding of the ball, but he couldn't beat Bruce Lee, and he really didn't expect it.

Also, what magic pill did Bruce Li take? Could it be that the second development?

Kalipari observed for a while and concluded that Li Liang's defense did reach the level of the NBA.
Chapter completed!
