Reborn My Name Is Kobe

Jessica and I spent a sweet night, but our bedtime was relatively early because I wanted to better recover from the recent fatigue.

After having a crazy time with Jessica, I quickly fell asleep. The night passed quickly, and there was no particularly bad nightmare or anything like that. It was as if the previous things had never happened at all.

Completely leaving everything behind.

I woke up at around eight o'clock in the morning, but Jessica was still asleep at this time. I didn't wake her up, but just sent her a text message on my mobile phone, telling her that I had to go early today.

I went to the court to practice at 1 o'clock. I hope to see her in Staples Arena tonight.

Then I drove directly to Staples Arena. Maybe it was because I arrived a little too early. When the security guard saw me, he was full of surprise. In fact, it was not yet Los Angeles at this time.

Nine o'clock local time.

Of course the security guard knows me, but he still feels a little weird seeing me at this time. In his words, he has never seen or even heard of a player coming before nine in the morning.

Go to the gym to practice.

"I'm sorry, I'm the kind of guy who can practice from morning to night. If you didn't want to ask me for an autograph, then I would have gone in."

After hearing this, the security guard quickly opened the door of the training hall, and I slowly walked towards the gym.

Although I haven’t seen the court in Staples Center for a few days, I feel like I have been away for a long time. When my feet set foot on the wooden floor of the court again, I felt a very special feeling.

A familiar feeling rushed towards me. I know what this feeling is and I know what home court means to me.

Speaking of which, I haven't done any running training for a long time, so today's training will start with running.

After performing the necessary body stretching exercises, I began to slowly jog around the basketball court. My speed was very slow, just a little faster than walking. This process lasted about twenty minutes.

I didn't take a break during this process. Although the speed was not fast, the distance I ran in twenty minutes was not short.

Next, I performed simple stretching exercises on my body again to ensure that all joints in my body were in a warm-up state after jogging.

Next, I sat down and rested for about ten minutes, and then started dribbling and running training. The dribbling and running training with one hand holding the ball lasted for about ten minutes. Then I started to increase the difficulty, using both hands at the same time.

We conducted dribbling exercises separately. At the beginning, I was not completely in the state, so I might make a dribbling error every time I passed a certain distance.

However, after I conducted about 20 minutes of two-handed dribbling training, both my dribbling speed and the control of dribbling rhythm have improved a lot. Before, I had relatively little training on my dribbling.

It is still relatively small, probably because the basic dribbling skills that Kobe has developed before are already very high.

However, at this time, I hope to further improve my dribbling ability, especially the uninterrupted dribbling ability of the left and right hands, and to maintain a stable dribbling state when the body is out of balance and faced with double teams by many players, and to minimize the risk of dribbling.

A dribbling error in one's own game.

This seems to be very easy on the surface, isn't it just dribbling, but many people can only put high-quality dribbling on the training field, and once they encounter extremely high intensity in a real game,

After double-teaming and close defense, their dribbling stability will be greatly affected. There are not many players who can truly maintain stable dribbling in high-intensity competition.

Since this season, as my performance on the court has become more stable and efficient, I will probably become the starting player for the Lakers at some point in the next schedule.

The current player configuration of the Lakers is very lacking in a player who can organize and handle the ball better. Although I may not be that good at organizing and distributing the ball, I still hope that I can develop myself as balanced as possible.

of football skills.

When it comes to dribbling skills, I have to mention one person, and that is my current NBA No. 1 pick, Allen Iverson. The last time I had a one-on-one duel with him, I was completely beaten.

Defeated, his dribbling speed and dribbling rhythm still often come to my mind to this day.

I think even if I can't simply rely on training to achieve his terrifying man-ball combination ability, I can at least improve on my original dribbling skills. After all, Kobe's body is only just over 18 years old at this time.

He is only 2 years old, and he still has huge potential that can be explored both physically and in terms of skills.

In fact, dribbling is a very physical thing. Many players who have little game experience especially like to show off their skills through dribbling during games. However, in fact, the most important purpose of dribbling is not to look good or to be good.

It’s just about being cool. Of course, I actually like to be cool, but the most important purpose of dribbling is to keep the initiative in the game in my own hands.

Dribbling can help players find the rhythm of the game, which includes both the rhythm of shooting and the rhythm of the entire game. For example, when should you choose to attack yourself, and when should you pass the ball to someone with a better opportunity?

In the hands of teammates, during the process of dribbling,

A game between you and the defender.

The purpose of your dribbling is also to jump the defender's defensive center of gravity and find loopholes in his defense. Therefore, real dribbling masters never dribble just for the sake of dribbling. They can always find a more reasonable time to use it.

The dribbling skills they have mastered can either successfully get rid of the opponent's defense, or successfully attract the opponent's defense and create better offensive opportunities for other teammates.

However, although the improvement of dribbling skills is relatively fast in the early stage, once you reach a certain level of dribbling, it will be difficult to improve further. This is actually quite similar to shooting. Unless your basketball talent is particularly outstanding, otherwise it is generally difficult to improve.

Intensive training will only slightly improve top players, but consistent training can still allow top players to maintain their original high level and avoid declining.

For me at this time, it is necessary to carry out high-intensity training. On the one hand, my body is relatively young, which is the best time to improve my potential. On the other hand, the opponents our Lakers have to face are really very difficult.

Strong, just like the strong rival Utah Jazz we faced in the last game, this group of experienced and powerful court bosses will really show their strength in the playoffs. If I don't have enough strength by then

If this is the case, it will be difficult for our Lakers to pass their level, and if we cannot even pass their level, let alone challenge the Chicago Bulls' supremacy.

Speaking of Jordan, I don’t know when there will be a game against the Chicago Bulls. I am indeed looking forward to my first head-to-head matchup with Michael Jordan on the court. Of course, so is Iverson, who lost to the Chicago Bulls last time.

After him, I have been training hard in order to compete with him in a formal competition one day.

After finishing the dribbling training, I performed several sets of fast full-court back-and-forth running. This kind of training was mainly to improve the explosive power and short-distance acceleration ability of the legs.

High-intensity short-distance acceleration training consumes physical energy very quickly. In addition, I have been training continuously for several hours before, so after finishing the short-distance acceleration running, I prepared to end this morning's training temporarily and take a shower.

Then find a place to eat well and replenish your energy.

Just as I was about to leave the dressing room after taking a shower and changing clothes, the cell phone in my pants pocket rang. It turned out to be Jessica calling me.

"Are you done training now?"

Jessica's gentle voice came from the phone, and I couldn't help but reveal a slight smile on my lips.

"Well, I just finished my training in the morning and am going to find a place to replenish some energy."

"I'm at the entrance of Staples Arena now. Come out quickly."

"Okay, okay!"

"What?"

Ten minutes later, I put my arm around Jessica's waist and walked into a high-end restaurant near Staples Arena. I had often heard Shaq mention how delicious the food in this restaurant was before, but I never had the chance.

Come here for a meal. Fortunately, I finally got such an opportunity today.

After looking at the dishes, I realized that the main dishes here are basically big fish, meat and high-calorie foods. Although they are rich in nutrients, they are inevitably a bit too rich.

Jessica saw me staring blankly at the menu, so she couldn't help but start ordering herself.

When Jessica had already ordered the food, I recovered from my daze.

"What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the products sold here are basically wild animals. I was wondering if I might eat some nationally protected animals that I shouldn't eat."

"Haha, so you are worried about this. In fact, the so-called wild animals here are all semi-artificially bred. Although the species are still wild animals, they are basically kept in captivity by humans. Moreover, all kinds of animals in this restaurant are

All quarantine procedures are very complete, so you should be able to eat with confidence. The most important point is that you usually train and compete so hard, how can you replenish yourself if you don't eat more nutritious food."

After listening to Jessica's words, I smiled happily. Having a woman who is so considerate and knows how to love her boyfriend is really a blessing from my previous life.

So when the delicious dishes came, I opened my belly and started to eat them. When Jessica saw how delicious I was eating, she couldn't help but eat the delicious food in front of me with me.

.

"Sure enough, the meat of these animals that are usually free-range will be chewier."

I couldn't help but sigh while eating.

"That's for sure. What's the point of eating the meat of animals that are completely raised in captivity? By the way, do you know how to hunt?"

"Are you talking about hunting with a shotgun? To be honest, I have never used a gun. Is it possible that you can even hunt?"

I looked at Jessica in surprise, trying to see the answer to this question from her face.

"I actually don't know much about hunting, but actually a shotgun isn't that difficult to use. If we have the opportunity to find a hunter master to practice our marksmanship, we won't be afraid of those ferocious beasts when we go out on adventures in the future."

“Jessica’s problem is that the NBA seems to have

According to special regulations, NBA players are not allowed to engage in activities that may cause danger during the offseason or in normal times. It seems that hunting with a shotgun is also prohibited."

"Yeah, I almost forgot if you didn't say anything. It seems that we can only go to the safari park to satisfy our eyes from now on."

"Here, you can eat more, you look so thin."

"I don't dare to get too fat. Don't you know how terrible it is for girls to be out of shape?"

I shook my head slightly, thinking that with Jessica's current height and figure, even if she gains about 20 pounds, she will not look fat, and she is already the type with low fat content and relatively high muscle content.

physique, so the whole person looks thinner.

After dinner, Jessica and I went to Staples Arena together. Today's game between the Lakers and Spurs will start around 7:30 in the evening. Jessica agreed to practice with me.

I remembered that Jessica also practiced with me at the home court of the Utah Jazz last time. After having her practice with me, I will feel more motivated to practice.

However, it was not suitable to go to practice just after dinner, so I took Jessica to the Lakers' tactical analysis room. There was a projector here that could play game videos of the Lakers and other teams.

I found the video of the last game between the Lakers and Jazz, and then showed it on the projector. Jessica and I sat next to each other.

Although the first half of the game was quite ugly, with our Lakers being beaten by the Jazz, I still had the patience to watch the video carefully, especially the Jazz's offensive round. I basically

I would watch it over and over again, and then try hard to find out what the Jazz's tactical movement looked like during this offensive round.

Jessica looked at me very seriously from the side, with a faint smile appearing on her lips from time to time.

"It feels like the feeling of watching the game live is completely different from watching the tapes afterwards. No wonder you have to watch the game tapes so seriously. Even I, a person who is not particularly proficient in basketball, can tell from these tapes.

What's going on, not to mention that you have watched many rounds over and over again. It is simply unreasonable for a player as talented and hard-working as you not to become a superstar."

"I also want to be an epoch-making superstar like Michael Jordan, but at least in my opinion I am not as talented as Michael. What's more, Michael is also a very inspirational player. It seems that when he was a freshman in high school, he was

The coach of the small team was expelled from the team, and he was able to create the basketball legend he is today by relying on his own efforts that are many times greater than ordinary people."

"I believe you can do it too."

"Are you so sure?"

"Well, your eyes are very different from others. There is a magical power that can see through everything, and there is a super strong willpower in it. This is why I like you."

"Don't you like me because I'm handsome and I'm good at playing basketball?"

I joked while holding Jessica in my arms.

When I watched the key shots in the last game between our Lakers and Jazz over and over again, I gradually discovered some very serious problems. In fact, these problems should have been solved by the coaching staff in their usual work.

It should be solved.

In the final analysis, it is caused by the lack of tactical execution of our Lakers players. In fact, whether it is the first half with extremely poor performance or the second half when the momentum is completely reversed, no matter how much our Lakers invest in offense and defense

Whether there is more energy or less energy, these tactical flaws will always exist.

It would be difficult to discover these problems on the court without watching the video afterwards. In fact, because everyone in the Lakers team was too tired after the last game, the team training originally scheduled for this afternoon was cancelled.

The video analysis session that was supposed to be conducted was also temporarily canceled, so now the only people sitting in the Lakers tactical analysis room are Jessica and me.

But even if I discovered the tactical flaw of our Lakers team, it would be useless, because it can be seen from the performance of the Lakers players in the first and second half that this flaw of our Lakers team is not based on the players' enthusiasm and subjective effort.

Regardless of whether we are careless or trying our best, this problem will always be with us as the Lakers, and as the opponents we face become more powerful, this problem will cause us more trouble.

After all, the player configuration of our Lakers team determines that this flaw is difficult to be solved simply through the coach's tactical adjustments. What's more, although our Lakers head coach Silver Fox Harris's tactical arrangement ability is very good,

However, there is a certain degree of leadership shortcomings. It is difficult to fully bring the Lakers' stars together to exert their full power, and it is also difficult to fully implement their originally good tactics.

It is not enough for a coach to simply have excellent tactical planning capabilities. After all, NBA players are all millionaires, and many superstars are often very individual. If the coach does not have sufficient qualifications,

If you have excellent leadership skills, you will naturally not be fully qualified for the position of a good coach.
