Reborn My Name Is Kobe

Chapter 36: The Witch's Notebook

The Clippers' morale soon suffered a huge blow, because they found that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't limit Shaq and I at the same time, and they couldn't separate the center of the defense to defend both of us at the same time.

In fact, after entering the second half, Shaq's competitive state was already quite terrifying. As long as he starts to be filled with bloodthirsty desire, he will still be the invincible shark.

As for me, I don’t have to worry about the opposing defensive players at all, because as long as Shaq stands inside, he will definitely be their main defensive target, and no matter how hot my touch is, they won’t do it when Shaq and I are on the court at the same time.

There was a situation where more than three people were double-teamed at once. In the first half, they actually used the sudden double-team tactic, but this tactic can only be used occasionally. When I was prepared, I

It will no longer be effective.

Therefore, the timeout called by the Clippers coach had no effect at all. When there were 4 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score between the two sides had reached 96, and the 30-point difference at halftime seemed like this.

He disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the Clippers players on the court also looked dejected. After all, the duck flew away just before they saw it, and the victory was gone just before they saw it. Anyone else would have lost it.

This is unacceptable.

I gave Shaq a hard high-five. This guy didn't know how to control his power. After high-fiving him, my palms trembled for several seconds. I was afraid that this guy just wanted to numb my hands.

This affects the feel, and I will only be able to pass the ball to him.

Hahaha, dream on, how could I pass the ball to Shaq, unless three or four people on the other side came to double-team me like crazy.

I was just thinking a little proudly when the opponent really started to double-team me with three people. Obviously my previous thoughts were too naive, or maybe the opponent saw that I didn't like passing the ball to Shaq today, so

At the last moment, I simply gave it a try.

What's annoying is that I still can't deal with three desperate opponents by myself. No matter how cool my dribbling is, I'm faced with a 360-degree siege from my opponents. Once their crazy double-teaming takes shape, I

His field of vision will also be greatly affected, and it will become very difficult to pass the ball.

The final result was that I was forced by the opponent to make a mistake, which led to a direct counterattack by the Clippers. Then the head coach Silver Fox Harris called a timeout. After all, we were behind for the entire game. We just recovered after one round and fell behind again.

.

During the timeout, Silver Fox Harris told me very seriously that I must pass the ball more, especially to Shaq, and repeatedly emphasized that he is the boss and core of the team, and I am just a rookie, so don’t think too much about it.

When trying to express yourself, you should put the interests of the entire team first. Although I am quite unconvinced, I have no way to show it. I can only watch Shaq smiling proudly on the side but there is nothing I can do.

.

Sure enough, when I came back from the game, I had much less possession of the ball, because I was moved to the shooting guard position again, and the ball-handling position became that old boy Byron Scott, so what happened next

I hardly got the ball in a few minutes. Almost every offense of the Lakers had to pass through Shaq's hands, and I could only stand outside the three-point line and helplessly OB the whole time. But for this

I could only shake my head and spread my hands to express my frustration. After all, Shaq's performance was worthy of so much offensive possession.

In fact, in less than 3 minutes in the last 3 minutes, Shaq dunked 5 baskets in a row, and every one of them was forced to dunk through the opponent's defensive players. I guess if this was not a formal game, if Shaq was playing on the field

If Chang is so arrogant, his opponent will probably want to kill him, but what can he do? If you don't have the strength, you will be bullied like this.

At the end of the game time, the Lakers still won the game with a near miss of 105 to 100. It is rare to see a game like this where they lost by 30 points in the first half and won by 35 points in the second half. If compared to many

In the Xiao Hua era, it is estimated that countless people will go crazy because of this game. There is only one reason, and that is the betting!

I didn’t stay in the locker room for too long. After hurriedly changing my clothes, I went out to look for Jessica. During the post-game press interview, I casually found an excuse and said a few words before leaving. When I came to the entrance of the arena

When I was there, I saw Jessica looking at me blankly, her eyes filled with a strange feeling that I couldn't describe. It seemed like there was nothing in her eyes, but it seemed like there was everything.

I walked over and put my arm around Jessica's shoulders and walked out, but a lot of reporters suddenly appeared around me. I was not very surprised about this, because even though I am just a rookie of the Lakers, but for

The Lakers are a super-rich team, and my performance this season is actually quite good, so reporters are paying a lot of attention to me, and they are probably more interested in my private life than my performance on the court.

More concerned about.

Maybe some of them saw that I was a little absent-minded during the reporter's interview just now, so they quietly followed me out. I have to admire the keen sense of smell of these reporters, but now I really don't have the extra mood to pay attention to them.

Regardless of whether they were filming openly or secretly, I simply let them go. I didn't care about these things at all.

In fact, I still had to make some appropriate disguises in my personal life, because both my agent and Lakers general manager Jerry West reminded me explicitly or implicitly that I was already a quasi-star.

, so I must work hard to protect my personal privacy and try not to let things off the court affect my game state.

I am also very helpless about this, and I also understand that as a star and a public figure, you cannot be so willful. Of course, I cannot compare with Shaq. Willfulness is almost his character label, and everyone

I don’t care about Shaq’s willfulness and will only regard it as a cute expression. Although he is a 300-pound fat man, the public’s attitude towards him is more tolerant than towards me, and I myself sometimes

My attitude towards myself is quite strict, so I don't really care about this.

I drive Jessica's car, and I don't actually have a car of my own yet. The cars I drove before were all borrowed from my father. Thinking of this, I am also seriously considering choosing a car.

A better car.

Of course, this matter is not too urgent now. I still have to choose a car that can match my future level. I can’t just buy a car casually. A future star player like me

You must also pay attention to your taste in choosing a car.

The next game will start the day after tomorrow, when the Lakers will go to the home court of the Phoenix Suns to play. It will also be our second time against the Suns this season.

After today's game against the Clippers, the Lakers' overall record has reached 7 wins and 2 losses, and they have returned to the first position in the Western Conference. I looked at our next opponents and they are not particularly strong. We are very hopeful to further improve our winning rate.

I didn't send Jessica home directly, but took her to a very atmospheric Western restaurant. The reason why I chose this place was not because of how upscale it looked, but because I felt that the surrounding environment here was It's better, and there are fewer people inside. I hope Jessica and I can have a quieter environment to dine and enjoy the happiness brought by delicious food.

Sure enough, I have a good eye. The interior decoration of this restaurant is very user-friendly. It is completely different from those restaurants that only pursue high-end luxury. However, the interior design of the restaurant is very carefully decorated. I even feel that this restaurant The designer of the restaurant must have a very good understanding of human nature and know what kind of environment can make people feel truly comfortable when eating.

I am very satisfied with the service in this restaurant, and Jessica's eyes began to change a bit as soon as she arrived here. Her eyes that were already dull became much brighter at this moment.

I felt that her soul, which had been taken away by something unknown, returned to her body at this moment.

"I feel like my brain hurts so much!"

Jessica finally spoke, which was a good start!

"Can you remember anything? You've been out of your body for several hours."

I don’t know how to specifically describe Jessica’s previous state. It’s the kind of situation where you know something is wrong, but you can’t find a very accurate word to describe it, and there are many usages of words in English. It is completely different from Chinese. There are some things that I might be able to express very clearly in Chinese in my previous life, but I can’t find such a word in English. After all, Kobe spent most of his energy from childhood to In basketball, the study of cultural courses is insufficient. In fact, although there are not many commonly used words in English, the actual vocabulary size is extremely terrifying.

This also leads to me sometimes not knowing how to express my true meaning to Jessica correctly. This is also a place where the memory of my past life and the memory of Kobe in this life conflict with each other, but I am also working hard. To change this, when I am alone at home and have nothing to do, in addition to physical training and watching Jordan game videos, I will also take time to learn cultural knowledge. At least let me be able to convert the knowledge from my previous life into English. The corresponding part of it.

Another thing that makes me very interesting is that the grammar of different languages ​​can really change a person's way of thinking. When you use English as your first mother tongue, it has a completely different feeling than when you use Chinese as your first mother tongue. The way of thinking will be very different. It is difficult for me to express this in accurate words. In short, now I can really do two things at certain times. It is like a kind of schizophrenia. The state is just that I may be able to control myself a little better and prevent my spirit from completely losing control.

"I can't remember. I only know that I went to Staples to watch one of your games before, but everything was so unreal. It was like there was another soul in my body controlling me to do that.

Everything, but the real me is trapped in my body but unable to give any instructions to my body."

"It's really scary. If this is not your illusion, then the problem may have become more and more serious."

"Maybe I know a way to help me now. Do you remember the psychic witch I told you before?"

"You still remember some, don't you? Do you want to see that witch again?"

"I have no other better way. I can only treat a dead horse like a living horse. Can you accompany me again tomorrow?"

"Depending on what you say, of course I will stay with you, yes

Don’t worry about anything while I’m here. If the sky falls, won’t there be someone tall to hold it up? Do you still think I’m not tall enough?”

I deliberately pouted my lips and looked a little angry. Jessica was also completely amused by my appearance and tone. I felt so good and comfortable watching her smile.

I didn't expect that I also have a talent for comedy. It's just that Kobe's eyes look a little serious and a little fierce. If such a person concentrates on being funny, he will be very funny. This contrast is better than Shaq's.

This guy who makes everything funny is more interesting.

When a person's mood gets better, his appetite becomes better unknowingly. Jessica's eyes become so gentle, and in all the time I've known her, I didn't know she could eat as much as she wanted.

She eats so much, but fortunately my salary is high enough, so I should be able to support her!

I tried to talk to Jessica about relatively relaxed topics, at least not to ruin this beautiful feeling at this moment.

Now I feel more and more that Western food is actually about the atmosphere and feeling. No matter how delicious it is, it is definitely not as good as Chinese food. At least now I can still vaguely recall some feelings about Chinese food in my previous life.

Those memories are very vague, but whenever I think of those episodes, my saliva will naturally accelerate secretion. It's really interesting.

"That witch has a strange notebook there. Although she didn't show it too obviously, I know that there must be many secrets hidden in that notebook. Can you help me get that notebook?"

"But the things recorded in a witch's notebook like this should be beyond the scope of our knowledge. Even if we get this notebook, what can we do? We probably can't understand the records above."

"You must believe me. This is a woman's intuition. That notebook is her life. I can feel it."

Jessica's eyes suddenly became very serious, which made me even start to feel a little bit of fear, because her feeling was so real, and when she looked into my eyes, it was like

Being able to convey directly to me what she saw.

Is this an illusion? How come I seem to be able to see some vague and beating scenes in her eyes, and those scenes are the scenes she saw at the witch's place that time.

I held Jessica's hand tightly, asked her to relax, and told her that no matter what happens, I will be by her side, and I hope she can believe me, if she thinks that notebook is really that important.

If so, then I will definitely do my best to help her get that notebook.

Then I chatted with Jessica for a long time, but I could no longer find the feeling I had at the beginning. I always felt that Jessica’s eyes were trying to escape my eyes, as if deep in her heart

There are still some secrets that I don’t want to tell me. I didn’t continue to ask so many questions. Everyone has their own secrets, and everyone also has things they don’t want to face. I should respect Jessica’s secrets.

At least that's what I tell myself, God knows if it's self-deception or something.

Just when we were about to walk out of the restaurant after dinner, my agent called me. I heard this guy on the other end of the phone yelling with joy as if he had won a lottery jackpot.

You have some good news for me.

I wondered for a long time what good news this guy could tell me, but in the end he just told me that a well-known car company wanted to cooperate with me, and if I could meet some of their requirements, they could give me a car worth hundreds of dollars.

Thousand dollar supercar.

When I was about to ask further details, this guy said that he had something urgent to deal with and that he would talk to me in detail after the specific matters were finalized in a few days.

It turned out that he was so excited even though he didn’t even have a single word in his horoscope. I was a little convinced of this agent, but this agent should have been signed by Kobe before he entered the NBA. It seems that Kobe is so excited

Sometimes I still have a bad eye for judging people. This agent is one of those guys who is very flamboyant and has no real ability. Hey, if there is a better candidate in the future, I will definitely fire him as soon as possible.

Of course, in fact, no one can tell what happened later, and this agent seemed to have been with me for a long time. Of course, that is all for another day, so I won’t mention it here for now.

On the way to send Jessica back, I saw another side of Los Angeles, which is the endless troubles of traffic jams. It seems that we were lucky not to encounter traffic jams in the past few times. Once Los Angeles really gets jammed, what will happen?

It's not something that can be solved in a few dozen minutes.

Originally it was only less than 40 minutes away and it took me a full 2 ​​hours to arrive. At this time, the time was close to midnight, and the traffic jam outside didn't seem to have improved at all. It seemed that I could only get there in Jesse.

Staying at Ka's house for one more night.

But this is pretty good, I had no plans to leave in the first place!

Of course, don't get it wrong, I just want to protect Jessica, because her current mental state is really too unstable, and I don't know how she spent her time alone in the past.
