NBA: Becoming stronger starts with hard work and mastery

The whole thing was a mess.

Otella Harrington went crazy!

Han Yi hurriedly left:

"This is what Fan Jin looked like when he passed the imperial examination, right!"

"I'd better go to training!"

"Do 1,000 squats to warm up first!"

Jumping proficiency +1! Jumping proficiency +1! Jumping proficiency +1!

However, after a short practice, Otella Harrington came up to him again with tears in her eyes:

"Han, I think you contributed a lot to my selection this time, because you said in the interview that I coached you in basketball. Maybe they chose me because they valued my ability in this area!"

"But the reason why you can become so strong is that you train hard enough and have great talent. You can improve so fast in such a short time. What does it have to do with me?"

"Okay, okay!" Han Yi comforted, "How could it be because of this? If they are short of trainers, why not just hire you? This is much cheaper than a second-round pick!"

"If you really feel bad, just give me all the time before you enter the NBA, train with me, I want to continue to get stronger!"

"Okay!" Otella Harrington grabbed Han Yi's hand: "Then it's a deal!"

This scene really shows the true brotherhood, but if Otella Harrington knew that he was selected as the first pick in the second round in the timeline without meeting Han Yi, I don't know what he would think.

Fortunately, Han Yi didn't know about this in his previous life, and Otella Harrington was even less likely to know!

...

In preparation for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, the Chinese men's basketball team participated in the California Summer League.

The golden generation built by Wang Zhizhi, Battelle, Liu Yudong, Sun Jun, Li Nan, Hu Weidong, and Zheng Wu aims to create history and advance to the quarterfinals of the Olympics!

In the game against the Los Angeles Lakers, Hu Weidong and the 18-year-old Kobe scored all the time, and the game was so close!

But after the second half, the Huaxia team gradually ran out of energy, missed shots from inside and outside, and the Lakers gradually pulled away.

But in the fourth quarter, Hu Weidong hit three-pointers in a row, directly chasing the score to 74:80, but then Kobe scored ten points in a row to end the game!

In the end, the Huaxia men's basketball team lost to the Lakers 85 to 105.

Hu Weidong scored a game-high 30 points, and the young Kobe also scored 22 points.

The Lakers' summer league head coach praised Hu Weidong and believed that he had NBA-level scoring ability.

The young Kobe looked at the entire Chinese team from beginning to end, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and had only one question:

"Where is Han Yi? Didn't he join your Chinese men's basketball team?"

Although Kobe had never met Han Yi face to face, Han Yi's photo had been engraved in his mind.

From the joint tryout to Kobe's tryouts for many popular teams, especially when he tried out for the Celtics, the old monster Auerbach kept muttering:

"Damn, I should have been trying out Han Yi now, how great it would be if I was trying out Han Yi now!"

Kobe thought he had performed very well in the tryout for the Celtics, but what was the result?

They are still missing a guy who didn't participate in this year's draft at all!

If only the Celtics were like this, it would be fine. When Kobe tried out for the Raptors, the Raptors also said so. When Kobe tried out for the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies also said so!

"Damn it!"

Kobe gritted his teeth and said, "I've never hated a guy so much, even though I've never met him. He's just a little taller and has longer arms. What's so great about that?"

But when Kobe asked this question, the entire Chinese men's basketball team was confused:

"Han Yi? Who is he?"

"Han Yi? I've never heard of him!"

"Han Yi? This name sounds like a Chinese, but what does he do?"

The Lakers' summer league coach thought Kobe's words were too simple, so the Chinese team didn't understand, and further explained:

"Kobe is talking about your Chinese genius player Han Yi, who is 2.08 meters tall and is studying at Georgetown University."

He thought he was very accurate and the Chinese team couldn't have been unaware.

But they still looked confused!

The leader of the Chinese men's basketball team scratched his head and thought to himself:

"2.08 meters? We Chinese still have

Are there any basketball players who are studying in college in the United States? Which region sent them? We haven't received any news! "

But how could such words be said to outsiders like Kobe and the Lakers?

The leader of the Chinese men's basketball team acted as if he knew everything and said:

"The Chinese men's basketball team is composed of three generations of old, middle-aged and young people. Han Yi is still too young. We need more experienced players to participate in the Olympics."

"Oh, that makes sense, that makes sense!"

The Lakers summer league coach smiled and said yes.

But Kobe was confused. Could these people brought by the Chinese men's basketball team really be stronger than Han Yi?

Kobe had never played against Han Yi, nor had he been to college, but as a basketball fanatic, he watched every NCAA game. No matter how he looked at it, Han Yi was better than the inside players brought by the Chinese men's basketball team today!

So, Kobe couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question:

"But we think your inside players are very average. Is Han Yi worse than the ones you brought? That's strange..."

Wang Zhizhi, who had been praised by waves of scouts, asked the translator what Kobe meant. When he understood, his face suddenly turned black:

"What's going on? He means that I am not as good as this guy who came from nowhere?"

Kobe wanted to say more, but was directly pulled away.

The coach smiled and said: "The child is ignorant, don't bother with him!"

"It's okay, it's okay!"

The Chinese men's basketball team also followed him with a wave of perfunctory courtesy and left.

As soon as the leader of the Chinese team left the Lakers' field of vision, he took out his mobile phone and made a call:

"Check which region Han Yi was selected from? I want all his information!"

A week later, the news the leader of the Chinese team received was:

I have checked all over China and asked all the basketball teams in all places, but there is no guy who looks like this playing in the NCAA.

"Does this person really exist? ”

This was the first question of the Chinese team leader. The second question was:

"Even if there is such a person, what does it have to do with us?"

"Is Han Yi a wild basketball genius outside our system?"

"Forget it, don't think too much, let's talk about it after the Atlanta Olympics!"
