super small forward

Chapter 28 28. Do your best to obey the destiny
Why say it again?
In fact, when Liu Ren first entered the NBA, he was 193 centimeters. At that time, he played as a point guard.

At the age of 18, he finished his first year in the NBA. When D'Antoni came in the second year, he found that he was about the same height as Kobe. He felt a little strange and found that he had grown 5 centimeters taller.

Liu Ren forgot about this matter. After a person grows taller, he will always remember his current height. He also grew taller during the season. In fact, he was already two meters tall at the end of the season.

In the past few months, he has been training in a balanced manner every day, and he eats high-protein foods. It happens to be the last crop, and he has grown another three centimeters all of a sudden, which is very good and strong.

Liu Ren is very happy about this. 1.9m[-] is not enough to play as a small forward. [-]m is just right, and he doesn't feel much loss in speed and flexibility. It seems that [-]m is the most suitable height for playing basketball There is still a basis.

Finally to BJ's!
When Liu Ren got off the plane, he ran into Kupchak. He seemed to feel that when the general manager looked at him and other team members, there seemed to be something wrong with his eyes. It didn't look like he wanted to trade someone, but rather... a little pitiful?
Ignoring the weird general manager, Liu Ren found Thackeray, who was still his best teammate in the team.

When he arrived at the hotel, Kobe was already waiting at the hotel. He was a busy man, and his popularity in China was terribly high. When the Lakers played the Nuggets in the last game, he came to BJ for interviews and endorsements. He was extremely busy.

Chen Hanni was also very busy when she came in. A while ago, she even went to Vancouver, Canada, to discuss the endorsement issue with the vice president of Nike North America. It was a big loss for them to miss Yao Ming back then. They don't want to lose Liu Ren this time.

In addition, Under Armor, Adidas, and several domestic sports brands that can afford the price all want to sign Liu Ren.

However, although these brands wanted to catch Liu Ren, the price they offered was actually not high, and the number of years was also a problem, so Liu Ren was not in a hurry, so he never signed it.

This also happened to make him not too busy after returning to China, except for the exclusive interview with the court station, and then he went back to his room.

Back home, there is one very important thing to do!
That is……

lick, lick...

Liu Ren, who had a hard time picking his feet, bought a laptop and played League of Legends in the room. He played a few ranked games, cheated himself, and cheated his teammates, and then sprayed each other.

This game has a very strong venting nature. When you are super god, you can kill your opponent to vent, and when you are in trouble, you can vent to each other with your teammates. In this era of great pressure, it is easy to play and become addicted.

When Liu Ren was playing "Blind man playing wild with blind man", the doorbell rang.

Depend on!Liu Ren really didn't want to open the door, like a college dog masturbating in the dormitory, and his girlfriend didn't want to answer the phone.

But the team in this hotel is fully booked, and he has already hung a Do Not Disturb sign on the door. It must not be the waiter who rings the doorbell, so only teammates, coaches, and management.

Opening the door impatiently, it was Kobe and Gasol.

Liu Ren invited the two of them to come in and sit down. Since the entire hotel was booked out, every room where players, coaches, and management personnel lived had a living room. The purchasing power of the US dollar was very strong. In Los Angeles, it was only enough to cover a five-star hotel. The price of one floor can cover the whole hotel here.

"Liu, this is our first private conversation. To be honest, I didn't expect you, a silent kid, to be able to play well and become the team's key training target." Kobe was not polite at all, no wonder his fans Many, but not many friends, most of them admire his golf skills, to be friends...it's better to be an opponent full of respect for each other.

This is why Kobe has always been known as the most difficult person to get along with, but he is also praised by players in the NBA.

Liu Ren also felt that Kobe's words were harsh, but it was really the truth.

However, Liu Ren is not a polite person. He said directly: "I have always believed that one day I will become the best player in the history of the Lakers and become the best player in history. What I said at the team party last month was not a drink , Now you are the best player in the history of the Lakers, in another ten or twenty years, it will be hard to say."

"Haha," Kobe was not angry when he heard Liu Ren's words, but said to Gasol with a smile on his face: "Paul, I won, and I said that this kid will never give up when he sees me. You know why I Are you sure?"

"I didn't expect that, this interesting kid," Gasol asked curiously, "How can you be so sure?"

"I went back to the locker room after rupturing my Achilles tendon last season, watching the game on TV, and I saw this kid and Curry match up, and I remember the expression of labor and management trying to kill each other. Paul, you know Is it? Anyone with such an expression is a ruthless character!" Kobe said proudly.

"Just like you? I think you want to-fuck-death any opponent you see."

"That's right, it was the same every time I saw you when you were in Grizzlies..."

Kobe chatted with Gasol in this way, and Liu Ren admired Gasol very much, and became a close friend with Kobe, who is straightforward and straightforward.

Finally, Kobe and Gasol finished joking, and said to Liu Ren: "Liu, I am here this time to hope that you will seize the opportunity before I come back and show your ability. I have been watching your physical talent and shooting touch. In my eyes, what is lacking is self-confidence. Now that you have such confidence, you don’t need anything! Don’t worry about not making shots, don’t worry about poor performance, don’t be afraid of anything, Paul will support you on the team until I'm back!"

Gasol nodded, backing Bryant's decision.

"Kobe, do you plan to wait until the doctor's approval of Achilles tendon recovery before returning?" Liu Ren asked.

"That's right, I will come back when I recover from my injury. Do you know that I can't help but want to play when I see you guys playing on the sidelines!" Kobe said excitedly.

"I can understand, but Kobe, I don't think you need to hurry to come back even if your Achilles tendon is healed." Liu Ren hesitated and said.

"Oh? Keep talking." Kobe recovered from his excitement and said expressionlessly.

"You are now using your right foot because your left foot is injured, right? I found that your left leg is much thinner than your right leg. I hope you can restore both legs to be as strong as possible before you come back... well, say it directly One thing, we can't bear the blow of your injury again." Liu Ren reminded that he didn't want to see Kobe make the same mistakes again until what happened in the future, the previous Achilles tendon rupture could not be prevented from happening in front of his eyes, and the next two injuries must be Gotta stop it.

"And your shoulder. From your past injuries, I have observed that you have old injuries in many positions. I hope you can check it carefully. Take a break now and take a good look at it."

After listening to Liu Ren's words, Kobe was silent for a few seconds, and said to Liu Ren: "Thank you, we will not disturb your rest, we will talk next time."

After finishing speaking, Kobe and Gasol left together.

Liu Ren heaved a sigh of relief and slumped on the sofa. He had done his best, and the rest was up to fate. Would Kobe listen to his nameless little... now little famous Xiaofei?

I don't know if he will offend Kobe, Liu Ren just wants to try his best to change Kobe's tragic experience in the last few years, and the tragic fate of the Lakers in the next few years.

The Lakers will definitely renew their contract with Kobe. There is no suspense. It is estimated that it will be around the opening game of the regular season. Then including this season and the next two seasons, as long as Kobe can play, then this team will let Kobe play.If he doesn't continue to be injured, then maybe the Lakers will rationally persuade him to make concessions for the Lakers' next team building. Detokunbo and others attracted a star-level backcourt and completed the reconstruction all at once.If he continues to be injured like the history in memory, it is estimated that the team management will think about it and let him play around with the ball to compete for the draft pick.

Everyone knows that as long as Kobe is on this team, it belongs to Kobe. If Kobe is injured many times and his strength is not enough, no one will definitely want to come.

Liu Ren persuaded Kobe to check his body carefully out of the idea of ​​doing his best, but he felt that this was one of the most important things. wedding dress.
