NBA: Golden State guard

On January 2020, 1, Los Angeles, heavy fog.

Originally at nine o'clock, Kobe wanted to take his second daughter Gigi to participate in basketball training. She was also the daughter Kobe thought most resembled him.

But at this moment, Kobe was in his private training gym, and with him was Linley in the training uniform of the Warriors.

All this was because today was the class time that he and Linley had agreed to.

Not only is Linley's body similar to Kobe's when he was a player, but more importantly, Linley's jumper is really similar to Jordan.

So Kobe has always admired Linley.Every time the media asked him who is the player most like him in the current league, he always answered Linley firmly!
So when Linley asked him to come here early today to learn back-up footsteps from him, he reserved this time for the player he admired the most.

He even chose to send a driver to drive her daughter to training under Linley's suggestion.

Looking at Kobe, who was a little fatter after retiring, Linley also sighed.

Back then, I was about to take the college entrance examination. In April, I had mock exams every week. On the day of Kobe's retirement, the sports news was the only time in history that the broadcast was suspended, just to not interrupt the audience watching his retirement game.

Even Linley's mock exam that day usually started at two o'clock in the afternoon, but it was changed to three o'clock that day because too many of the invigilators were secretive. This also allowed Linley to witness Kobe's performance in the 60-point retirement game . (my personal experience)

Although many people questioned the Jazz's release of water and Kobe's high shot.

But to Linley, this is not important anymore. The most important thing is Kobe's bloodthirsty eyes when the Lakers fell behind at the last moment. Go ahead!

Even Huaxia's commentator was yelling: That's the look!Black Mamba eyes!

No one expected, even including his old partner O'Neill, that everyone was surprised by Kobe's final performance.

And such a pure basketball player died in an air crash.

Fortunately, with the presence of Linley, all this will not happen.

Although Kobe's figure is a little fat, but he has only retired for four years, and his skills have not degraded much.

He still showed Linley the step of backing up.

This was Kobe's unrivaled skill back then. Kobe demonstrated countless back-and-back moves, which made Linley amazed.

When it was Linley's turn to experiment, he first tried a feint and turned around to catch a fadeaway jumper.

The combination of strength and stretch is like Jordan coming!
With this shot, Kobe's eyes changed from sloppy to focused.

He seems to have returned to his childhood when he followed his father to Italy.

At that time, he was withdrawn and had no playmates, only his favorite basketball.

He always learns from the Jordan video tapes sent by the beautiful country, and learns Jordan's skills, especially Jordan's jump shot that combines beauty and lethality!
Learn and learn.

The teenager learned to become the overlord of the Italian Junior League.

He became the scoring record holder in high school in Pennsylvania, and he became a genius who entered the NBA after graduating from high school.

Until he entered the NBA, when he finally met his idol, the number 23 of the Red Bull.

He showed the trick in front of himself, feint, turn, jump shot!
So it is!It turned out to be like this!

This is how Kobe felt when he saw Jordan shoot for the first time!

Kobe now is as if he saw that ball back then!

Linley suddenly felt that Kobe in front of him had changed.

He is no longer the retired Kobe who is a bit blessed, with a kind and gentle smile on his face.

He appears to be wearing the No. 24 jersey in purple and gold again.

The desire to win and lose came back to his face!
"Come on! Let's play a bullfight!" Kobe couldn't help but walk beyond the three-point line, and launched the ball towards Linley!

Linley also smiled brightly, he still likes Kobe like this.

He passed the ball back to Bryant to signal the start of the game.

Kobe started with his signature continuous change of direction. Although his speed is not so fast as he gets older, his sense of the ball is still so good. The basketball seems to be a toy in his hand, changing according to his mind.

Soon Kobe saw a flaw in the process of Linley's center of gravity change, and he pulled it up directly to make a signature jump shot.

Although the height is not as good as before, the combination of coordination and stretch makes this jumper look so picturesque.

The basketball obediently got into the net.

Kobe was still spraying trash talk at Linley: "It's so easy to shoot in front of you, you look like an old man my age."

Still this taste!

Linley also tried his best to defend Kobe's next ball out of respect for Kobe.

Kobe chose to use his own weight to hit Linley with his back. Linley, who was defending him, felt that Kobe in front of him was like an expert in a martial arts novel, with all his skills integrated into his body.

You will feel that every part of his body is doing fake movements, his shoulders, his waist, are full of delusion.

You don't know if he's going to take a jumper on the next ball or turn around.

Kobe beat back and used trash talk to disturb Linley's mind: "I'm going to lean back, little rookie, why can't you still jump?"

I saw Kobe turning around decisively, and his signature fadeaway jumper has been used!

Linley only felt that the height of this shot even had the strength he had back then!
Perhaps Kobe felt a lot when he saw Linley's jumper tonight.Maybe it was Linley who aroused his competitive spirit!
Tonight he really seems to have returned to his player days!
But Kobe didn't make the next goal. After all, he has retired for four years.

Finally it was Linley's turn to attack, he did not choose his other weapons.

He just wanted to pay tribute to Kobe with his Jordan jumper.

Whether it's a dry pull, turn around and lean back, change direction and retreat step jumper.

It tastes exactly the same!

Kobe felt like he was fighting a bullfight with a young Jordan, which was what he wanted to do most when he was young.

Although the young Linley still won the bullfight in the end, the performance of the 42-year-old Kobe was far beyond Linley's expectations.

After Linley followed Kobe to learn the back-up technique for a while, he also left contentedly.

Before leaving the arena, Linley turned around and looked back at Kobe, who was still shooting. Although he retired, there was no need to maintain his high-intensity training, but Kobe really loved basketball, and he would play whenever he had the chance. a joy.

Linley looked at Kobe, who was concentrating on enjoying basketball, and said silently before leaving: "The Mamba is not out."

[Thank you Belle for loving Kobe's flowers]
