Chapter 102 JAVALE, YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TRAINING HARD RECENTLY!

"Javale, you haven't been training hard recently!"

Pamela couldn't help but stand up and shout at McGee.

Hearing his mother's shout, McGee started to play seriously against Boyeti.

No matter how good Boyeti's physical fitness was, she was still a girl, and she was completely ravaged by McGee one-sidedly.

"He has asthma and attention deficit disorder."

While they were still playing, Pamela said with emotion.

Tang Tian turned his head in confusion.

He had heard of asthma and could feel it a bit during training, but it wasn't that serious.

Attention deficit disorder, on the other hand, was the first time he had heard of it.

Seeing the curious look in Tang Tian's eyes, Pamela continued to talk to herself.

"I was 24 years old when I was pregnant with him. At that time, I was playing in Europe, at the peak of my career, but his father abandoned us."

Tang Tian frowned slightly when he heard this. Another case of abandoning his wife and children. The trend of unmarried pregnancies was really not good in the United States.

He had previously promised to propose to Olsen when he won the championship, and he had to work hard.

"I originally planned to abort him, but I couldn't bear to end a little life that was about to come into the world. In the end, I gave birth to him, raised him, and gave him my last name."

Pamela explained why McGee had the same last name as her.

In a single-parent family, the son basically carries all the hopes of a mother.

"He is so excellent. I knew from the moment he was born that he had my genes. He can definitely play in the NBA. He has been very tall since he was a child. He can quickly learn the basketball skills I taught him. He is really the best gift God has given me."

Pamela looked happy when she said this.

The NBA is the highest basketball hall. Being able to play even one game in the NBA means you are an absolutely top basketball player.

Although McGee has not reached the level of an All-Star, considering the background Pamela said, the effort he put in behind it is unimaginable to others.

"I get up at 5 o'clock every day to take him to training. He quickly became better than all his peers, but one day the doctor gave me a report. They said Javale has asthma and attention deficit disorder.

"Yes, it's that disease called ADD. It prevents Javale from staying focused on the court all the time. It makes Javale always do some uncontrollable things on the court, and Shaq makes fun of him for it."

Pamela's emotions fluctuated greatly when she said this. She was very sad in the first sentence, but very angry in the latter sentence.

This may be why she is so grateful to Tang Tian.

O'Neal is a basketball legend, one of the fifty greatest, and a top-three center in history, while McGee is now just a minimum-salary player who is not even an All-Star.

The support the two sides can get in public opinion is not on the same level at all.

If O'Neal says McGee is a clown, then McGee can only be a clown.

Moreover, O'Neal is a Tang-booster, and the two seem to have a good relationship, but Tang Tian chose to support McGee in this matter, which is really unusual.

Tang Tian was stunned after listening.

At that moment, he seemed to understand all the things McGee did in the "Shaqtin' a Fool" segments, and the reasons why McGee had high basketball IQ, high EQ, and worked hard but couldn't make it work before.

McGee doesn't have a problem with his brain, he really has a disease.

These are two completely different things.

Moreover, according to Pamela's introduction, this disease makes it impossible for people to stay focused, which is almost fatal in high-level basketball competition.

McGee can still do this step, and the sweat he put in behind it is even more unimaginable, and his talent is even more incredible.

"Don't worry, McGee will have a good time with the Pelicans."

Tang Tian said to Pamela with a smile.

He always likes hard-working people, like Leonard, Butler, and Jokic.

And to be honest, McGee's EQ is the highest among these people.

"Thank you, Tang, I don't know what to do, but thank you so much."

Pamela was full of gratitude.

For single-parent families, the bond between mother and child is much greater than that of ordinary families.

This is also why McGee always looks like a big boy.

But at least, it seems like this is a good thing for McGee now.

The one-on-one between McGee and Boyeti over there has ended.

After being blocked once, McGee gave his sister a hard lesson.

McGee walked off the court with a smug look on his face.

"Javale, tomorrow I'll teach you some defensive positioning skills in the paint."

Tang Tian looked at him with a smile and said.

Tang Tian can't possibly change McGee's attention deficit disorder, after all, he is not a doctor.

And according to Pamela, this disease is completely incurable.

But McGee's problem is not only that he has a disease, his defensive positioning is actually very problematic.

He gets a lot of blocks, but his rim protection ability is not good, which is what he needs to improve and can improve.

Tang Tian is a basketball coach, he knows this kind of thing at a glance, and he also knows how to improve it.

McGee nodded vigorously, the smug look on his face was gone, replaced by an expression of effort.

Pamela said that McGee could quickly master basketball skills when he was a child, and she really didn't lie.

McGee listened to everything Tang Tian taught him the next day, and he could already do it in training.

I have to say, McGee really has the talent.

And it seems that McGee is really a bit of a pity.

After entering the NBA, he didn't get enough training. Now he is 27 years old. Not to mention learning new things, it takes time to change the previous bad habits.

But this kind of thing has advantages and disadvantages.

Like Whiteside, he is young and strong, but he will think too much because of the competition with Jokic.

But McGee is at this age, his goal is to work hard to become a qualified rotation player for the Pelicans. In comparison, he won't think so much.

Tang Tian went to McGee's house for dinner, knew McGee's experience, and really wanted to help him.

In addition to teaching him these positioning skills, he also talked to coach Williams about the use of McGee.

McGee's excellent performance in the last game against the Rockets greatly changed Williams' impression of McGee, and he was willing to try to use McGee more.

After all, Biyombo's characteristics are there, and it is easy to be targeted by opponents.

Tang Tian and Williams were talking about the issue of playing time.

McGee has asthma and attention deficit disorder. These two combined will make his efficiency decline if he plays for too long.

On the contrary, his efficiency is very high in a short period of time. When the defensive positioning is solved, playing for 10 to 15 minutes will be of great help to the Pelicans' bench.
