Reborn My Name Is Kobe

I sat on the bench for most of the second half and watched my teammates play. In fact, the main players didn't have much playing time in the second half. I was replaced with 4 minutes left in the third quarter.

At this time, the score difference between the two sides was 33 points.

When the third quarter ended, the score difference between the two sides had widened to 45 points. I felt that I was a little too cruel, but there was nothing I could do about it. My state today was ridiculously good, but this did not win me more.

The amount of playing time left me unable to get a chance to play during the garbage time.

The last quarter belonged to the Lakers' substitutes. They lost to the Suns by 20 points in the fourth quarter, so that the point difference between the two sides stayed at 25 points at the end of the game. This

The gap may not seem particularly big, but anyone who has actually watched this game will understand that this point difference really cannot explain anything.

When the game entered the second half, the home fans began to leave one after another. At the beginning, their boos would slightly inject some vitality into this boring game. However, as time went by,

As more and more people left the venue, even the boos began to become fainter.

The entire fourth quarter felt like a long afternoon, which made me doze off while sitting on the bench. For a while, I really felt like I was falling asleep, but soon I was sitting next to me.

Shaq woke up from his sleep. His energy was so abundant, and today's game did not allow him to fully release his excess energy, so he began to use his natural talent for comedy to start a cold conversation on the bench.

joke.

Anyway, I think his cold jokes are too cold. I don’t know what those teammates think. Maybe they are just deliberately acting funny to take care of Shaq’s self-esteem.

After the game, I quickly finished changing my clothes, and the reporter's question-and-answer session after the game was even more boring. After all, such a game with no NBA content really made people feel a little uncomfortable.

And some reporters like to linger on off-topic topics. For example, when they can't find a nutritious topic during the game, they will involuntarily lead the topic to places outside the game, such as players or coaches.

Personal gossip and all that, and of course what I'm curious about is why these reporters with a keen sense of smell didn't ask Shaq about his party.

I think if these reporters really asked, given Shaq's character, he might really answer them seriously. Of course, God knows what seriousness looks like in Shaq's eyes.

And when the reporter asked some questions about my personal love life, I became a little alert. I seemed to detect some clues from the reporter's questions. Are there paparazzi secretly observing my private life?

I feel like I'm not a big star now. Why don't they care more about Shaq if they have extra energy?

It's just that I don't seem to be very talented at lying and acting on the spot, so many times when reporters ask me some personal questions that I don't feel comfortable answering, I only choose to remain silent and spread my hands.

I really don't know how to deal with it.

Of course, these reporters are not entertainment reporters after all, so in the end they will focus on issues such as the relationship between players within the team.

A reporter specifically asked me what it was like to work with super insider Shaq. I thought about it and told them that Shaq is a historical superstar, and I am just a rookie, so I can learn from him.

I have learned a lot from him, and I am very happy that I can be in a great team and fight for the championship with a group of great teammates in my first year of NBA career.

Generally speaking, I can still speak some mandarin clichés. This is also the method he taught me when I met my unreliable agent before to deal with reporters' questions.

Last time I asked him to get me another mobile phone so that I could give it to Jessica so that I could keep in touch with Jessica at any time.

Shortly after the reporter's question ended, my agent appeared in front of me, holding the same mobile phone as mine. I just wanted to take the phone from his hand, but he suddenly

Withdrew his hand.

"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

I scratched my head speechlessly, stretched out my hand again and finally took the phone over.

"Let's talk about the bad news first. Anyway, I don't think you have any serious good news."

"As you wish, the bad news is that the car brand that wanted you to endorse last time temporarily regretted it. They decided to choose another rising football star as their new spokesperson because they felt that football has an impact around the world.

Even bigger, and the NBA's influence is mainly aimed at the United States, so they believe that choosing new football stars can better help them promote their car brands to the world."

"This is not bad news. At least I didn't feel any fluctuation in my heart when I heard this. Okay, now you can tell me the good news."

"The good news is that I have helped you find a car brand endorsement opportunity that is bigger than that car brand, and in their opinion, the current overseas market is not that easy to explore. Their brand positioning is mainly focused on the US market.

So they are more willing to choose a rising basketball star. They are extremely satisfied with your recent performance and value your development potential, so they are willing to pay 30% more than the previous car brand to sign a contract with you."

After hearing this, I was a little confused. I thought that although this agent sometimes seems unreliable, he still seems to be quite good at professional level. However, I am not too excited about the new endorsement opportunity.

I'm happy, maybe because I really can't understand what a huge amount of money it is now.

Anyway, I had no concept of money in my previous life. Now I am about to become a billionaire, but my concept of money is even more vague. I am not specialized in dealing with money. In my life, I only have money.

Basketball is the most important, and money takes a back seat to many, many other things.

But no matter what, I verbally praised the agent's outstanding performance and told him that I would consider giving him a salary increase. However, this guy said that he wanted a higher commission ratio.

I didn't agree immediately, but told him that I would give due consideration to his proposal. If he could keep up his efforts in the future, I am not the kind of stingy boss.

On the plane flying back to Los Angeles, I didn't feel sleepy at all. I looked at the pitch black outside the plane window, and I didn't know what I was thinking in my mind. Since I was reborn as Kobe, I have become accustomed to not having intelligence.

Cell phone life.

It would have been very painful for me in my previous life to be away from my computer or smartphone for such a long time. However, when I lost my computer and smartphone now, I discovered that there are many other things in life that are more important.

Things are worth my energy.

It is precisely because I have experienced such a change that I feel more and more that in the information age, while mobile phones and smartphones have brought convenience to people, they also seem to have deprived us humans of some very important things.

Because I was not sleepy at all, I asked for some magazines from the beautiful flight attendant. There was also a basketball magazine about the NBA. I opened the magazine out of curiosity.

When I saw a column report specifically describing our Lakers team, I couldn't help but burst out with a wry smile. In fact, when you read the analysis of those columnists on you and your life in a magazine, you will

You will understand how magical and incredible everything that seems ordinary and simple to you seems to outsiders.

Come to think of it, playing in the NBA may be a job, a hobby, and a life for us, but for those star-chasing teenagers, it is like a mysterious existence. People will always give us some possibilities for ourselves.

Characteristics that no one knows about. Of course, this is part of entertainment. No matter how they describe Kobe in the magazine, how they describe the conflict between me and Shaq and the tacit understanding between us in the alley-oop, in short, this is their job and part of our lives.

.

It's just that I think it's really interesting to have the opportunity to see us from their perspective.

Just looking at it made me feel a little hungry, but I couldn't open my belly to eat and drink as much as I wanted. Not long ago, my agent hired a nutritional consultant for me, and he formulated a very strict diet for me.

According to the dietary guidelines, I only have the opportunity to indulge in one meal a week. The rest of the time, I must strictly abide by the food limits specified in the dietary guidelines.

Strictly speaking, I am a relatively self-disciplined person, so I am not very opposed to such a dietary guide that helps me maintain good self-discipline habits. Of course, it does not mean that I completely agree with this guide.

The so-called nutrition consultant formulated the recipe for me. You must know that in my previous life, I was also someone who dabbled in catering, so I actually didn’t know anything about nutritional matching.

There are still some subtle differences between the nutritional understanding of this era and the mainstream nutritional understanding many years later. However, it is hard for me to say which theory on nutrition is more scientific. In fact, when you are superstitious about science, it is different from superstitious theology.

There is no essential difference, because most science is in the process of continuous improvement and progress, so don’t be easily deceived by those who pretend to be scientific. You must learn to distinguish what kind of science you have.

is truly reasonable.

When I returned home to Los Angeles, it was already past 3 o'clock in the morning, but I still didn't have much sleepiness at this time. I don't know why since this afternoon's training, I feel like I have too much energy in my body.

It seems to be overflowing, which also makes me feel a little excited now for no reason.

In order to relieve this state of mind I decided to take a cold bath. I have a huge private bathtub, which is actually custom-made and suitable for anyone under 2 meters 1 in height.

The cold liquid took away the excess energy from my body surface, but made the inside of my body even hotter. It was like the cold water stimulated my inner energy supply system. In order to prevent me from freezing to death,

Metabolism becomes faster.

After taking a cold shower, I felt so comfortable all over my body, and finally fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

I woke up around ten o'clock in the morning the next day. Although I didn't sleep for a long time, I felt that I had completely restored all my energy and my brain seemed unusually awake, at least better than it had been in this period of time.

Be more alert every day.

This state really makes people feel very comfortable. When the brain is blank, it reacts fastest and has the strongest learning ability. However, I have no plans to stay at home and continue to watch Jordan’s videos, nor do I plan to

I'm doing some strength and stretching exercises in the gym at home. Now I just want to go to Jessica's house earlier. Just because I haven't seen her for more than a day makes me miss her a little.

As if knowing that I was going to find her, Jessica was very considerate and cooked a delicious meal for me. Although I have to say that her cooking skills still have a lot of room for improvement, but my face

The smiles that appear are absolutely genuine.

Jessica looked different this time than before. First of all, I felt that her mental state was much better than before. It seemed that she had left behind all the troubles she had encountered before. Seeing her bright and sunny face

I am also very happy with your smile.

In this joyful atmosphere, we both drank a little too much, and even told each other a lot of dirty jokes under the influence of wine. My head came close to Jessica's lips, and then we kissed her deeply involuntarily.

After dinner, Jessica took me to the cinema to watch a movie, but I asked her that she obviously had a quite advanced projector at home, so why not use it to show some good movies.

Jessica's expression was slightly stiff for a moment at first, but returned to normal after a while.

When I turned on Jessica's projector, the picture projected on the screen told me why Jessica's face suddenly changed.

It turns out that there are many realistic black and white photos placed in this projector. The content of the photos covers almost many aspects, but one thing is very clear. These photos must have been taken quite a long time ago.

The so-called age means that it was at least half a century ago.

In the photos, there are many people wearing clothes that belong to that era that has passed. This may be because the resolution of the photos is insufficient or the photos are not well preserved. The details in many photos appear blurry after being magnified by a projector.

It's unclear, like a bunch of dark stuff stuck together.

"Can you tell me what the people in these photos are doing?"

I asked quietly.

"If you really want to know, these photos will actually have to be shown to you sooner or later, but I originally planned to postpone this time a little later. But now that you have seen it anyway, it's okay to tell you everything.

No problem."

"Well, you can just say it. I have seen a lot of interesting things with you during this time. Even if you say something very weird and bizarre, I will be mentally prepared."

"Haha, it's actually not as strange as you think, but they are indeed not content that ordinary people can access. You may also be able to tell that these photos are of an older age, but I can guarantee their authenticity.

.”

"Black and white photos of this quality were produced at least half a century ago, and that was the era."

I paused for a moment as I thought about everything that people from that era might have experienced, and I couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

"As you can imagine, these photos must also come from my family. Many people in my ancestors have the habit of recording what they have experienced with cameras, and in the photos they took

There are some unknown secrets hidden in it, secrets that even the descendants of the family are not very aware of."

"Cameras must have been quite rare in their time, so it was not easy to preserve so many precious photos. And could the secret you said they hidden in the photos be your own?

You are so worried. If there really are those secrets, why didn't your parents discover them before? Presumably these photos were left by your parents as a souvenir before they left."

"Of course they discovered the secret, but they couldn't tell it to me personally. I had to discover it myself."

"Why? This is not logical at all!"

"There are not so many reasons. Everything in this world can be understood with normal logical thinking. I just hope you can continue to trust me like you did several times before."

"Well, of course I believe you, but maybe you don't know what you should believe."

"Maybe, then let's go find the truth behind all this together, okay?"

"Is the truth really that important? If these so-called secrets are really solved, how much help can it bring to our lives. I will soon be an NBA superstar, and I will have many, many possessions by then.

With money, I am willing to buy you whatever you want."

"What you don't understand is that some things cannot be measured by money. I just want you to be by my side. As for money and wealth, it is not that important to me. If I want money

I only need to auction off a few cultural relics hidden at home to become a multi-millionaire, but that is not what I want."
