be prone to injury
If you don't have enough strength, don't try to dunk. You should have seen many amateurs dunk and shoot videos on the ground online, which is very dangerous. Didn't Thompson get fouled by the green behind him when dunking in the finals, and then lost his balance and got injured? Like CBA, there are such risks.
Dunk consumes physical strength
Dunk requires more physical confrontation than layup. There are many ways of layup, such as low-handed layup, expert layup, licking the basket and so on. But they don't need to spend much effort. Dunk is different. Defenders, in particular, are short, so you need to do your best to ensure that the height you jump can make you dunk steadily.
Poor physical fitness
There is no doubt that foreigners are generally better physically than Asians. The advantage of Asians lies in their good brains. China people's muscle composition determines that China people are inferior to foreigners in bounce and explosive power, which are self-evident for dunk.
In the second year of his promotion to the first team, Abdul completed a one-stop dunk in the last 40 seconds of the away game in Xinjiang, which was his first dunk in the professional arena. In that game, Abdul came off the bench for 5 minutes and scored 2 points 1 rebounds 1 steals. He also completed a similar steal and counterattack dunk with both hands, which was the first dunk in his national team competition. Abdul started and scored 15 points and 3 rebounds. In just three years, Abu Dhabi has moved from the absolute substitute of the club to the starting of the national team, which is really a rocket-like growth rate. This summer, he also basically locked a place to participate in the Men's Basketball World Cup.
Abdul averaged 18.5 points per game last season, but his scoring was basically based on empty cutting, rhythm and skill. It is rare to see him use his physical strength to eat his opponent. Abdul does have high players, so this kind of play seems a bit "floor flow". Last season, in the semi-final against Liaoning, he tried to break through the dunk with both hands when his physical strength dropped. Unexpectedly, the ball not only didn't dunk, but also cramped its leg. At that time, some fans joked: "Abu Dhabi is still a good flooring technology. Learn from Wiggins and play healthy basketball. Maybe he can reach 40 years old. "
In fact, the problem that domestic players rarely dunk has become a cliche. On the one hand, the physical quality and core strength of domestic players are not excellent enough, and in the case of confrontation, the movements are easy to deform. For example, the Xinjiang team's Fan ended his attack by making a layup at the basket, obviously feeling that his waist and abdomen were insufficient; On the other hand, people in China are generally more introverted, not as expressive as European and American players, and dunks may also bring unexpected injuries (for example, Han Dejun broke his hand because of dunk mistakes last season, which led to season reimbursement), so in the competition, except for talented players like the United Arab League, qi zhou and Shen Zijie, it is rare to see domestic players dunk. However, a dunk can often improve the morale of the team and the appreciation of the game. Still need to encourage more players.
I don't know if Abdul is a little envious of seeing teenager Zhang Zhenlin abuse violent buckles frequently during training and warm-up.
