Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 49 Kobe's Anger
After Li Liang and Wei Dazhi left, Kobe began his training in the UCLA training hall.
For an NBA player, victory is their pursuit, and failure is the normal state in the process of pursuing victory.
A real NBA player must learn to accept and appreciate failure before learning to feel the joy of victory.
Just like every shot on the court, you know you can't always make it, but you have to make it with the belief that you will.
Kobe is deeply aware of this, so he will continue to shoot even if there is a lot of trouble.
Those reporters followed Kobe to the training facility, trying to get something out of his mouth.
Complaints after failure, dissatisfaction after losing, are fine.
In fact, they are all wrong.
Even though this man has won 5 championships and experienced countless criticisms, criticisms and failures, there are still many people in the league who don't understand him.
If he would easily bow his head and complain because of failure, he would have fallen down long ago.
Falling in the boundless pain of failure, and boundless ridicule and criticism-this is the inevitable result of many of his actions.
There are superstars in history who fell in this kind of failure and criticism, like Bill Walton in 1987.
The super center who was plagued by injuries and gained a new life in the Celtics, with the failure of the 1987 Finals, completely collapsed.
In Byrd's words, his house smelled of death, like a cemetery.
A physical injury can be overwhelming for a while, but a mental abandonment can be a complete breakdown.
Kobe didn't. At the age of 34, he felt that he could continue to play in the league.
He can still do his best, win a championship, and challenge "that man" in his heart.
So, journalists looking for scraps were wrong to begin with.
They got nothing but Kobe's cold eyes.
Only when Kobe has completely decided to give up his basketball career and quit the stage will he show his unknown side.
Now, he's old and still an old Black Mamba.
Ryan West went into the training hall and watched Kobe continue to train there, he didn't bother Kobe.
He knew that Kobe hated others interfering with him during training, and he would wait until the end of training to talk about anything.
It is already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and today is a practice of recovery and adjustment, and the time will not be too long.
But it was a bit tough for West.
For the first time, he had no interest in watching Kobe practice.
He thought of Bruce Lee's ugly expression when he left, and thought that this brat must have been taught a lesson by Kobe.
Humans can never learn from the experience of their predecessors.
Young and vigorous.
But can you be called a young man without being aggressive?
West is still very optimistic about Li Liang, he has potential.
Ryan, like his father, has a unique sense of people, but there is little room for him to play in the Lakers.
As a son who always lived in the shadow of a great father, he also wanted to prove his worth.
Of course, no matter how proven it is, Li Liang is just a second-round pick, a 3D instant fighter.
And who did his father choose?
With Divac, in exchange for the 13th pick from the Hornets, the person in front of him was selected!
After waiting on the sidelines for nearly an hour, Kobe's training was finally over.
He returned to the locker room to receive physical therapy and muscle relaxation from his trainer.
He tied ice packs to his ankles and knees, and then soaked in the large pool for twenty minutes.
West followed into the locker room, the locker room in the UCLA training facility, as advanced as the NBA.
Kobe is lying in the big water bath for body relaxation.
He closed his eyes and lay motionless against the pool wall.
"Hey, Kobe?" West called out tentatively.
The relationship between the two is very good on weekdays, but today West felt that Kobe was not in the right mood.
It may be related to the loss in the playoffs, or it may be related to Bruce Lee's rude heads-up invitation just now.
West understands Kobe's temper, and when he gets angry, he will definitely ignore it.
No matter who you are, even the closest people around you, Kobe will ignore your existence.
Kobe let out a "hmm", got up from the pool wall, and changed his position to make himself lie more comfortably.
West didn't want to go around, and said directly: "I want to ask your opinion about that young man, that Chinese, Bruce Lee. You fought with him for a few minutes, how do you feel? Do you have any suggestions?"
Kobe raised his hand from the sink, scratched his head, and said, "What advice do you want me to give? You trained him, not me."
Kobe's words made West feel a little strange.
In the past, Kobe had singled out all the young people in the team, and he would always make a big comment after the end.
If the young man was playing well, Kobe would say, "He got blown out of me, but overall he's not bad."
If the young man can't play well, Kobe will say, "I beat him up, this guy can't do it."
Anyway, both good and bad were blown up by Kobe.
After all, if Kobe doesn't blow you up in a one-on-one fight, he won't be reconciled.
What's more, with his offensive and defensive skills, none of the young players will be his opponent.
But this time, Kobe seems to be avoiding the question.
This is the first time I have encountered it. Could it be that Bruce Lee defeated Kobe?
Impossible, judging from his offensive ability with the ball in the trial training, it is difficult to score in front of Kobe.
The most he can do is to shoot cold arrows outside, and with luck, he can score one or two points.
Bruce Lee's defense is really good, reaching the NBA level.
But that's also a good defense against NCAA-level rookies and fringe players like Darius Morris.
Like Kobe, even if you are the best defensive player in the league, it is impossible to completely guard against him one-on-one.
With a hint of doubt in his heart, Ryan West asked: "Kobe, when he was one-on-one with you...you two..."
Before West finished asking, Kobe interrupted him roughly, saying: "I think this kid is not bad, his defense is not bad, his footwork is good, and his movements are clean. He has potential. If you fancy him , can be won. Which pick are we?"
"Well, the 60th pick, but Jim prefers to pick an insider..."
"No, no, we don't need anything inside, what do we need inside? Isn't our outside defense bad enough?"
West felt that there was something wrong with Kobe, why did he complain about the team's perimeter defense?
Although this is true, in the early years of the Lakers, in the OK era, the perimeter defense mainly relied on Kobe.
Then at the point guard position, assisted by strong and experienced guards like Fisher and Harper, there is basically no problem in perimeter defense.
After 2008, Kobe's defensive energy gradually became insufficient, and the Lakers successively had Ariza and Artest help on the front line.
At the point guard position, it is still no problem to use young and energetic guards like Farmar and Vujacic as biters.
In the past two years, Kobe has gotten older, Artest has been slower, and the biters on the back line have all been traded away.
That's why Ryan set his sights on small guards like Morris and Johnson-Odom.
In fact, he wanted 3D more, but unfortunately he was too low to get it.
For Bruce Lee, it really feels like he picked up a bargain.
Hearing Kobe's rare complaints, West nodded quickly and said, "OK, then I will take Bruce Lee as the first target, and I will make suggestions to Jim."
"No!" Kobe said suddenly, he sat up from the pool, and said: "Don't suggest, but must choose him, definitely!"
West didn't know what happened, but at least he got what he wanted.
If Kobe Bryant specifies Bruce Lee, then Jim Buss needs to think about it.
After all, it is still old Buss who controls the Lakers now.
Kobe was like a son to Buss Sr.
West left the spa and Bryant got up from the pool.
He frowned and his mouth turned up, which was his expression of displeasure.
Even at the age of 34, many times, he still does not hide his emotions.
"F-uck."
A foul word came out of Kobe's mouth.
As the saying goes, the more you think about it for a while, the more angry you become, and the more you think about it when you take a step back, the more you lose.
Kobe remembered the one-on-one with Li Liang, his body was knocked away, and then he faced the slash dunk on the head.
He can tolerate being scored, no one can guard an opponent forever, but he can't stand it this way.
He felt that he was crushed, and at the moment of physical contact, he seemed to have returned to his rookie period.
No, he beat Eddie Jones one-on-one as a rookie.
He should have turned into a child, a child who was powerless to resist adults.
The resentment of falling to the semi-finals for two consecutive years, the distress caused by physical injuries, and the confusion and worries about the future were all suppressed by his resolute personality.
In the end, Li Liang's buckle dug up all of this.
Kobe sat by the pool, held his head, closed his eyes, and calmed down for a while.
Except for that goal, the offense behind this kid is a mess.
With high defensive intensity, it is difficult for him to dribble and attack except for dry pulls.
However, his defense is good, his foundation is very good, and he can not lose his position when he does his best.
It's just that the intensity is not enough and the aggression is not enough. This is a lack of experience and training.
And he has an extremely confident demeanor, no matter how many balls are poured, the fighting spirit in his eyes never disappears.
This, like yourself.
Thinking of this, Kobe stood up and let out a long sigh of relief.
His expression returned to indifference, as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile, in Li Liang's hotel room, Li Liang is sleeping on the bed.
A day of trial training made him a little tired, and he needed a good night's sleep.
In the exchange center, a line of words appeared: [anger value +100, from Kobe Bryant]
Then, the anger points in the exchange center suddenly increased by 2000.
