The rest is just noise

For the rest, only Noise Volume Chapter 1,233 Gao Jian could clearly feel Kobe's dissatisfaction. He felt that he was being targeted, so the Yellow Team lost.

This is such a huge amount of self-confidence. Why does he think that if the ball is given to him, the yellow team will win?

Could it be that he thought he was strong enough to compete with Benj?

The questions in Louis's heart were not really questions.

He is really worried about Kobe's current situation on the team.

For newcomers, integrating into a new team is a big deal.

If you don't integrate well, you may be as helpless and incompetent as Liu Yuqing in her rookie season.

After the match, the players regrouped.

"What you need to know is that the outcome of the match is not important to the coaching staff, so when you lose the game, don't be discouraged. What we focus on is your performance in the process, not the final result.

.”

"Overall, I am very satisfied with this game. You all showed your characteristics. Keep up the hard work."

"Next, Coach Nelson will take you to your first training session."

After Louis finished his training, he told Nelson a few words: "Don't let them run the 'Meteor' on the first day, run some simple tactics, and if possible, give Kobe a few pointers."

"Does that kid still need my guidance? His face is thrown to the sky, and all he sees is Benjamin!" Nelson said angrily.

Later, Louis returned to the office with Bird, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Stevens.

The Lakers' coaching staff is very luxurious. In addition to full-time inside coaches like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, there are also development coaches like Bird and Stevens.

Louis needs to ask for their opinion on player development.

"What do you think of those rookies?"

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the first to speak. He said harshly: "Tell Ben Wallace that he will never learn the Sky Hook. His only way out is to study hard with Charles. He will never develop into an offensive inside man."

, because his talent is too poor."

"Where's Malik Rose?" Louis asked.

"It's just okay." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar thought for a long time before he could say a good word, "He's quite positive."

"Okay, Karim, you can go."

Louis has no intention of developing Ben and Rose's offense.

Because of his lack of talent, in order to stay in the paint, he must develop a body of steel in the weight room.

If you expect such a person to have offensive capabilities, you are living in a science fiction world. It is impossible. He can just eat the cake.

Rose's words are true to what Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said. As a power forward with no talent advantage, he plays hard, has good athletic ability, and is full of energy on the court.

The word "positive" can sum up his performance.

Such a player is destined to be a puzzle piece on the bench, able to bring positive energy to the team, and there is no need to expect anything beyond his abilities and talents.

"Alex, tell me what you think."

Bird was present, and Stevens was embarrassed to share his views, "How about letting Larry speak first?"

"What are you making a fuss about?" Bird asked.

"Okay, let the country bumpkin speak first."

Louis' "love" for Stevens is evident.

Bird rolled his eyes at this partial bastard, and then said: "Steve Nash is very good, or in other words, he is better than expected."

"Oh?" Louis asked, "Is it that good?"

When Bird talked about Nash, he was like You Tanzhi kneeling down to Azi, "I won't talk about his shortcomings, you all know them. I think he is the player with the best point guard instincts on this team.

In the match just now, when he came on the court, the Yellow Team's offense was very smooth. He was able to find fleeting opportunities and pass the ball. Moreover, his shooting touch was very smooth. He was a natural shooter. Although his explosive power was not good, his shooting ability was very smooth.

He has a great change of direction and a good sense of rhythm. It's a pity that his playing time was too short, otherwise he should have seen more advantages."

Louis joked to himself: "Sounds like we can pretend we drafted Steve with the seventh pick?"

Bird nodded with a smile: "If Kobe is unable to fulfill his talent due to being ostracized by his teammates in a few years, and eventually fades out of the league and becomes a bust, you can comfort yourself like this."

"Do you think so little of Kobe?"

Louis didn't expect Bird to dislike Kobe.

In his impression, after Bird retired, he accepted an exclusive interview with Jimmy Simmons and said that Kobe was the active player he most wanted to partner with.

"It's not that I don't think highly of him." Bird said in a different way, "I don't believe in him. I don't believe that a player with this kind of character can survive in the NBA. High school is his paradise, and the NBA is a primitive jungle. Here

The rules of competition are cruel, and no one will treat him like a high school student. If he still sets his sights high and treats teammates other than Benjamin as decoration, his ambition is destined to be a fantasy."

Character?

Did Kobe have a bad character? He was just paranoid.

This is also the reason why Louis is confident in transforming Kobe.

A Kobe who longs to be a hero and often isolates the team and stands out can drive a Zen master crazy.

This is bad paranoia, he only believes in himself.

However, if Louis could change his mind and make him believe in another philosophy, would his paranoia still be a shortcoming?

He will defend his playing philosophy to the death.

"You talked a lot about Kobe's character, but what about his skills?" Louis asked, "Don't you have anything to teach me?"

"There's nothing to say about his technique, it's great."

Bird said emphatically: "He only has three problems. A bad character, a desire to be taller than the sky and deeper than the ocean, and a tendency to compete on his own."

"Larry, his character is not bad." Louis said lightly, "Having desires is not a bad thing. If he does nothing all day long like Glenn Robinson's shameful salted fish, then I will have a headache. His only

The problem is this tendency of the game."

Bird said: "I think it is his character and desire that create his tendency to play."

"No, this has nothing to do with character and desire. The tendency to play is a style, which is the way he has been accustomed to playing since he played. You can't say that this is an add-on to character and desire, just like you are a stingy country bumpkin, but you

His performance on the field was not stingy.”

"QNMD!"

After Bird broke through the defense, Louis looked at Stevens: "Alex, it's your turn."

Alex didn't expect that Louis would not follow the routine and asked: "Coach, won't you let Larry quit?"

"Why should I step back? Why are you shy?" Bird snorted, "Speak directly if you have something to say!"

It was really stressful for Stevens to express his crude opinions in front of two GOATs.

"I think Big Ben will become a very good defender. His defensive performance in the match was impeccable. There was not a single wrong judgment or bad defense in the game. He even did a good job in blocking the basket.

.”

"Malik has more than enough hard work, but not enough agility. He needs to learn to read the opponent's offense and position."

"Kobe is a typical high school player. The only defense he is good at is one-on-one defense. However, his physical confrontation and experience, as well as his defensive skills limited to the high school level, make it difficult for him to become a good one-on-one defender at the NBA level in the short term.

At the same time, he is extremely lacking in teamwork experience. He has no idea how to use his teammates to improve his defensive power, and he does not participate in all necessary matters such as assisting defense, rotation, and supplementary defense. He only has Benj in his eyes, but his defense against Benj

It’s also a disaster.”

Stevens criticized Kobe's defense for 10 minutes, and Louis wanted to pour him a glass of water.

"What about Steve?"

It took 10 minutes to criticize Kobe's defense. If he didn't spend an hour criticizing Nash, Louis wouldn't really agree with it.

"Steve? He's hopeless. Give up. He can't even become a qualified defender."

After Stevens finished speaking, he looked at Louis and Bird nervously.

He wondered if his statement had gone too far.

Unexpectedly, Louis and Bird looked at each other and both laughed.

"Alex, asking you to join the coaching staff is really the best decision I made this summer." Louis said with emotion.

Bird recognized Stevens in another way, "You are worthy of being from New York. When I played against the Knicks, the last person I wanted to play against was you."

If Benj were there, would he protest excitedly?

Louis thought to himself.

⑴Buck Williams' "Buck" is actually a nickname. His full name is Charles Linwood Williams. Many talented young players will be called Buck when they first enter the league, but only a few of them are called Buck.

I kept this nickname.
