Live Bar, June 25 -prior to this, Guangzhou men’s basketball player Cui Yongxi received an exclusive interview with Li Qun, a CBA celebrity, before going to the US for special training.
Li Qun: how do you think training in America will affect you?
Cui Yongxi: from self-confidence and foreign basketball skills, I will change my rhythm on the court.
Li Qun: your shooting has improved a lot this season. Why did you shoot so accurately in the third stage?
Cui Yongxi: On the one hand, it is self-confidence; On the other hand, it is Guo Shiqiang’s guidance. When he was in the national team, Joe Shuai adjusted the range of holding the ball on my palm, saying that my hand was big and my hand was too big, I couldn’t control the shaking of my palm when I exerted my strength, so I turned my thumb back. After the adjustment, the area is small, so the ball is more complete.
Li Qun: I think the attacks you break through on the left will be relatively few. Sometimes you break in from the left to end with your right hand. You think your weak hand needs more training, or is it used less?
Cui Yongxi: it is used less and requires more technical training. Now I am used to using my right hand, but actually my left hand can also be used, but the natural reaction on the court is to use my strong side hand, maybe it hasn’t changed yet.
Li Qun: Do you think it will be better to play the No. 1 position or give consideration to the No. 1 and No. 2 position?
Cui Yongxi: sure, but first of all, I have to have the habit of holding the ball. In fact, I don’t need to hold the ball on the court many times now. I can’t say that I will take it all at once if I want to practice holding the ball, maybe both sides can’t stand it. It is possible to take over the important task of holding the ball only by running in the training slowly during the off-season.
