Iverson can be said to be one of the peaks of basketball personal skills (there are many different types of basketball technical peaks in NBA, such as Jordan and Jabbar). The overall characteristics of this peak are mainly reflected in the word "fast". Quickly break through the first two steps; Shooting is fast; Fast break, layup, run-up and take-off. Coupled with the extraordinary running ability and jumping ability, Iverson has formed the basic technical characteristics.
Everyone can see Iverson's "fast", but why can he be so fast? Maybe everyone is not clear. basketball
Of course, technical speed must be based on a certain absolute speed, but this is not an absolute factor. 1 1 sec There are many people who can reach 1 1 sec (it is estimated that Iverson's 100m speed is about 1 1 sec), but only he can achieve Iverson's "fast" basketball skills! Moreover, basketball doesn't need a real speed of 100 meters, but a few meters to a dozen meters is enough. This paper analyzes several basic factors of his "fast" skills, hoping to help young people who are interested in becoming excellent basketball forwards.
First, the first two steps of the breakthrough should be fast: the breakthrough should be fast, and the preparation for the start before the breakthrough is extremely important. The main point of action is that the first one is "relax the waist and fully lean forward", which is similar to the start of sprint. "Waist relaxation" is very important and the key to getting started quickly! Did you notice what happened before Iverson broke through? He can do "the waist is very relaxed". Many players always hold all their strength before a breakthrough, but they don't know how to fully relax before a breakthrough! The second is the fake action before the breakthrough. The fake action before the breakthrough has two functions, one is to deceive the other side and create space for the breakthrough. Another more important role is to provide reaction force (or driving force) for rapid breakthrough. Only a fake action that gives full play to both functions can be successful. Often some players only know the first function of the fake action, but ignore the more important second function, so the breakthrough technology is greatly discounted (seriously think about it, does your fake action have a second function? )。 The completion of a high-quality rapid breakthrough must be based on a correct start and a high-quality fake action. There is a fake action, the essence of which is shooting preparation. Players with accurate peripheral shooting often don't need other fake moves. As long as they get ready for shooting immediately after receiving the ball, and his preparation for shooting can be combined with the preparation for starting before the breakthrough, high-quality passing can be achieved. Therefore, "throwing" and "jumping" are two important and interdependent techniques that protect each other in basketball personal skills. Players with only one skill are easy to defend. Domestic pitchers often can't "suddenly" and it is difficult to play in important games. Iverson's most troublesome thing is that he can "shoot" and "jump", which is very difficult to defend. Fortunately, his shooting is not very stable, otherwise it will be more difficult to prevent (similarly, Miller is also lucky that his breakthrough is not strong, otherwise it will be the same. This may be that the world is not perfect.
Second, the shot is fast: there are two kinds of jumps, one is to jump fast and the other is to jump high. Jumping fast is not the same as jumping high. Of course, from the point of view of physical mechanics, if the height of objects from the ground is the same and the initial velocity is the same, there is no difference between speed and speed. However, the "fast jump" in basketball technology is not the initial speed of the body off the ground, but the "short preparation time for completing the take-off". Everyone prepares to take off at the same time. Whoever "completes the preparation process of taking off in a short time" will "jump fast". From the perspective of biomechanics, people with good thigh strength can jump high and those with good calf strength can jump fast. Because the use of calf strength "completed the preparation process of take-off in a short time." Therefore, people who want to "jump fast" must pay attention to the strength of their calves, soles and arches. You know, "jumping high" is far less important to a small player than "jumping fast" because Iverson is only 180cm, and the big man who jumps higher than 2 meters has an advantage, but jumping fast is of great significance. Francis is off the ground 1.20cm, which may be better than Iverson, but he doesn't jump as fast as Iverson in the competition. So Iverson is more difficult to defend. Iverson's sudden take-off shot is completed very quickly, and often the defender has already shot before he can react. This is of course related to his light weight, but his excellent calf jumping ability is also an important factor.
Third, fast break layup: Iverson's layup includes fast run-up and fast take-off. In fact, what I personally appreciate most is Iverson's layup technique. Height 180cm, it is really amazing to make such a chic layup in an NBA game with a mountain of strength and a forest of height. When I was young, I was also good at fast break layups, and I was also famous among the surrounding "hillbilly" fans, so I was no stranger to layups. When I watch the game, I consciously estimate that there are few accidents when players make layups. However, when watching Iverson's layup, I often find that he can complete the layup process in an unexpected way, and it is really rare that he can do it beautifully without affectation (I don't appreciate those over-affected layups and dunks that are purely for show). So I pay great attention to the analysis of Iverson's layup technique and compare it with my own experience. The average person's layup is always a run-up like the high jump: a big step is followed by a small step before the layup. The body has obvious run-up fluctuation and deceleration, which creates the basic conditions for the defender to block the cover reasonably. A calm defender can easily judge his flight time and route, and also has time to block his last step. If height and bounce have certain advantages, a "hot pot" will be formed. Therefore, a small fast layup master must first break this layup rule, so that the defender can't judge his layup time and route, and never leave the defender with time to block. The layup was completed before the tall guard could react. Iverson did a beautiful job. Careful observation of Iverson's layup process will reveal that his run-up has no "run-up fluctuation and deceleration" (similar to long jump), and the quick run-up immediately vacated the layup. Almost all the defenders are still trying their best to follow his fast movement, and he has already made a layup in the air. In addition, this kind of layup is similar to the long jump. The sky is not necessarily high, but it must be far enough. Tall players have absolute height, but not necessarily far, so there is nothing they can do about Iverson's layup. One thing to pay full attention to here is the advantage of "far" layup. The short man's quick layup should not be far from the weight! I once talked to a fast layup player who is only 177cm tall. His 100-meter speed is about 1 1.3 seconds, and he once joined the provincial professional team in the 1970s. His main technical feature is that he can make a high-speed layup under the defense of players much taller than him, and his movements are generous and unobtrusive, "spreading his wings like a proud swallow" (commented by a senior coach). Once, he told me that his layup point was that his flying point was at the top of the arc of the free throw! So far? I didn't believe it at first, but it is true after careful observation (don't think that Jordan's dunk flying point is only on the free throw line to deny the introduction here. The difference between dunk and layup is that the height is at least 50cm and the distance is at least 80cm. My physical condition is not as good as his, and the speed of 100 meters is only about 12 second. Under his instructions, I tried my best to adjust my flying point and be able to fly near the service line to make a layup. And the effect is very good, which is why I have layup skills. My experience in teaching students has never been conservative, but few people can understand it, probably because of poor material. If a good young scholar has mastered it, it is also my wish to publish it online.
Fast, high and far are difficult to achieve in the layup. Players must have comprehensive jumping ability, speed and sufficient technical awareness at the same time (comprehensive jumping ability refers to "jumping fast" and "jumping high" as analyzed above). Observing Iverson's layup, it is not difficult to find that although he can dunk easily with one hand, he seldom uses it (I have only seen it once). You can't see the height when you make a layup. The most rare thing is that you never show off. Simple layup, safe score. Obviously, Iverson's playing style is much simpler than his 1 1 tattoo. This is also the most valuable place.
Of course, Iverson's personal skills tend to be perfect, but it is difficult to play without his excellent running ability. As for the way he handled the ball on the court, I don't really appreciate it. But this is another issue, and I don't want to discuss it.
Methods and misunderstandings of practicing bouncing
Jumping high depends mainly on the explosive force and strength of calf muscles. So that is to say, the underdeveloped calf is the key to bounce.
Myth: There are many ways to increase bounce, such as leapfrog, standing posture and so on. You can practice by yourself. You can jump 20 frog jumps or stand 10 minutes. The next day, you can see whether the thigh is sour or not, and the calf is sour or not. I tried it myself, and I didn't feel anything in my calf the next day. So, these exercises are just to exercise my thigh muscles.
Methods: I think these methods are very effective.
Toe on the stairs (thick book, threshold, etc. ), the heel is suspended, and then the toes exert force to make the body move up and down. Do it about 50 times, and you'll feel your calf jump tight. Then do 10. Take a break for a few hours before you do it. This method is not tiring, it can be used anywhere. Very good!
Additional methods of practicing calf explosive force: take off from 1 m and land, and jump up quickly after landing.
Breakthrough is an offensive technique in which the ball-holding players use footwork and dribbling skills to surpass their opponents. In the game, grasping the breakthrough opportunity and using breakthrough technology reasonably can not only directly cut into the basket to score points, but also disrupt the opponent's defensive deployment, create more offensive opportunities and increase the opponent's fouls.
If the breakthrough can be combined with CIC and ball distribution, the attack will be more flexible and the effect will be more obvious.
1 crosswalk breakthrough
[Action method] Take the right foot as an example. Open your feet left and right, bend your knees slightly, and lower your center of gravity, between holding the ball and your chest and abdomen. When breaking through, the left foot quickly hits the ground on the inside of the forefoot, the body slightly turns right, the left shoulder presses forward, the center of gravity moves forward to the right, the left foot steps forward to the right to lead the ball to the right, then dribbles the ball, and the central pedal steps forward to quickly surpass the defense.
【 Action Points 】 Push the stride actively and turn the shoulder pad ball.
2 Step by step breakthrough
[Action method] The preparation posture and action before the breakthrough require the same step. When breaking through, take a step forward to the right with your right foot, turn to the right shoulder, move your center of gravity forward, dribble with your right hand, quickly push your left forefoot to the ground, and take a step forward to the right to break through the defense.
【 Action Points 】 Take the initiative to kick the ground, turn to the shoulder pad ball, and take the initiative to kick the ground with the second foot quickly.
Turn around and break through after 3
[Action method] Take the left foot as an example. Stand with your back to the basket, your feet open in parallel, your legs bent, your center of gravity lowered, and your hands holding the ball in front of your abdomen. When breaking through, turn around with your left foot as the axis, move your right foot to the rear, turn your upper body to the right, point your toes to the rear, and put the ball in front of your right foot with your right hand. The inside of the left forefoot quickly landed in the direction of the basket and dribbled through the defense.
【 Action Points 】 Keep the center of gravity stable. When the right foot steps to the right, the toe direction should be correct, and the inside of the forefoot of the left foot should be actively and forcefully pedaled.
4 Turn around and break through
[Action method] Take the left foot as an example. The preparation before the breakthrough is the same as that after the turn. When breaking through, the center of gravity shifts to the left foot, the inside of the forefoot of the right foot touches the ground, the left foot is the axis, the right foot steps out in the direction of the basket with the forward turn, the left shoulder presses in the direction of the basket, the right hand dribbles the ball, and then the left foot steps out to break through the opponent.
[Action Points] Move the center of gravity and push the ground to dribble coherently.
Finally, we should pay attention to the fake action before the breakthrough to create a better breakthrough opportunity.
Dribble is very important in basketball training or competition. It allows players to:
When you can't pass the ball to your teammates, you can attack with the ball yourself; Move the ball to a more favorable position and pass it to teammates; Or wait for teammates to control the ball and receive the pass; Dribble to the basket and finish shooting or layup. However, it is also important not to dribble too much. If you dribble too much in the game, the other four teammates can only stand there and watch you, thus losing the team spirit advocated by basketball and dribbling slowly (passing the ball to the basket faster). You should learn how to dribble and when to dribble (when to pass the ball).
You should dribble the ball with your fingers, not with your palms. It is best not to dribble above the waist (it is easier to control the ball). When dribbling, relax your wrist and slap the ball with a downward squeeze, not a whipping action. Train hands to dribble skillfully. Learn to dribble in place first, and then you can walk while dribbling. Don't think too much about your moving speed when dribbling, but master the dribbling technique first. After mastering the dribbling skills in walking, we will gradually increase the moving speed until we move at full speed. What speed to take is based on whether you can dribble comfortably.
Dribble is to look up and observe the situation on the court at any time. If you just look down at the ball when dribbling, you will be easily caught by your opponent steals the ball. You can't see your teammates in a favorable position, and you don't even know where to shoot easily.
Control dribbling
When dribbling, when you feel that it is difficult to pass the ball quickly, or when you are observing the situation on the court and preparing to pass or shoot, you should use the control dribble. Dribble from knee to waist. Bend your knees slightly and lean forward, so that you can control the ball and shift gears quickly. The arm that does not take part in dribbling should bend its elbow and extend outward to keep balance and prevent the other side from approaching.
Quick dribble
Of course, if you want to bring the ball to the frontcourt quickly, you have to dribble it quickly. At this time, the body should also lean forward and shoot the ball slightly forward, slightly higher, between the chest and waist. Face the moving direction and observe the whole audience with your eyes.
Variable speed dribble
The dribbler can use variable speed dribbling to break through the opponent's defense (of course, he can also use sudden change of direction or other fake actions). Variable speed dribbling not only changes the dribbling speed, but also changes the dribbling height. Close to the opponent in a small stride, then suddenly accelerate (the stride is also increased), and the dribble height is reduced to the knee position to break through quickly. Variable speed dribbling needs a lot of practice to be used effectively.
Simple method of dribbling+cross dribbling
Step one: lower the center of gravity. Don't watch the ball, practice dribbling with your right hand first, and then practice dribbling with your left hand.
Step 2: Pull the wrist hard and dribble the ball with one hand to move left and right in front of your body. Similarly, dribble the ball back and forth on one side of the body. It should be noted that the lower the center of gravity when dribbling, the better, because the external force with the ball is completely from the wrist. Only by controlling the landing direction of the ball can we control the ball well. Practice with one hand when you are familiar with it.
Step 3: The left and right hands cross dribble in front of the body, and then practice cross dribbling in the back of the body.
Step 4: Practice dribbling in stride. First, the left foot takes a step forward, and the right hand bounces the ball back to the left hand from the stride, and then the left hand bounces the ball back to the right hand. The movements are the same after changing feet and hands. Then connect these dribbling steps and practice them repeatedly in the same place.
Step 5: Practice dribbling across the road. First practice a straight line along the border, then practice a curve, and then there is a defensive scene in The Imitation Game. As for how your body reacts naturally with your opponent's movements, you can only explore it repeatedly in practice.
But as long as you practice repeatedly according to the training steps mentioned above, you can play with confidence. When you see your favorite NBA star's wonderful cross dribbling and passing, you can actually do it. What is lacking is speed and explosiveness, and other wonderful things can be done.
