I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 137 Streetball vs. Professionals
The director team found a bunch of streetball masters from nowhere. Most of them are black, with cropped hair or dreadlocks, but without exception, they all have tattoos, which have a sense of street culture.

If you look carefully, you can find many Chinese characters in these tattoo patterns, such as brother, bad boy, devil, respect, etc., all kinds, and the most ironic thing is that some people have tattoos with "slut" "pig" " "Bull" and other words, people can't help but wonder if they understand the meaning of these words?

Before the filming started, Chu Xiao took the initiative to greet them. She didn't have the nerve to point out the meaning of "slut", so she held back her smile and talked to them about how to perform the game later, and warmed up by the way.

Of course these guys knew who Chu Xiao was.In the past, they would definitely have dismissed this rookie in the NBA. Now that times have changed, only admiration and admiration remain, so they all took the initiative to show off their skills in front of him, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Whether in the American basketball circle or in the Chinese basketball circle, streetball players have always been a relatively mysterious group. Most of them have no experience as professional players, and they rarely have the opportunity to perform in front of the big camera. The understanding is through seeing all kinds of fancy tricks and various bantering opponents in those edited videos...

So there are many rumors in the market, saying that in the United States, the singles level of some top streetball players can match that of NBA players, and some streetball stars even have more fans than NBA stars. So are their actual combat levels really that high?
In order to prove the actual combat level of streetball players, it is advisable to find one person in the American streetball circle and one in the Chinese streetball circle as a reference.Here in the United States is the famous streetball king "Bone Collector" Lavon Williams. Anyone who is familiar with streetball knows his name. In the summer of 2001, Larry Williams put on his sneakers and went to Rock Park in New York. He was known as the "Bone Collector" because he changed too much and often broke the defender's ankle.

There are many legends about him in the market, the most famous one is that he once beat Marbury and Baron Davis, the two top point guards in the NBA, on the street court. Unfortunately, these things are only legends Without the support of video data, most of the videos are "passerbys" who were played by him.

And the one who really has a video record of his deflation is that the NBA player James Harden defeated the "Bone Collector" with one move.

Since scoring is more important than everything else in the NBA, players don't like to play fancy moves and pay more attention to actual combat.But when it comes time for them to play, even the best streetball players will be beaten!One of Harden's tricks in the face of the "Bone Collector" was to pass through the crotch from behind, making the latter unresponsive.

If you really want to single out, I believe that NBA players can lock every street player most of the time.

The other one is Wu You. He is not the best streetball player in China, but he should be the most famous. Many NBA stars can see him when they come to China to participate in activities.Ross came to China to fight him one-on-one, and Ross played calmly, while Wu You played very fancy, but was easily blocked in the end; Wu You did not take advantage of the one-on-one fight with Paul, he In front of the NBA steals king, he is directly stealed.

It is undeniable that streetball is another form of basketball, but most of these people still cannot be compared with professional players. Between streetball players and professional players, the gap in shooting, confrontation, and technical stability is obvious. However, such a gap is not surprising, after all, the difference in the training and competition environment between street players and professional players is worlds apart.

You can play basketball very well, but it also depends on who is in front of it.

Kobe made streetball players understand this truth when he was young. In 2002, he had just finished his three-peat tour, and he visited the American streetball mecca - Rock Park, where there are the best streetball players in the United States. , So there was an actual battle between Kobe and them.

That confrontation can still be seen on the Internet, and the result is that Kobe can not only play them with fancy moves, but also completely crush them with physical talent.

Even Lin Shuhao once let go of his bold words, "I dare to bet $1000 against street players, and I must win!"

Lin Shuhao once trained with a famous streetball player professor. He dared to say such a thing, so he was not just talking big.In fact, the reason is very simple. Many streetball players initially aimed for the NBA, but they gave up the NBA due to their strength and switched to streetball.

Of course, there are many successful cases among them. For example, Yao Ming’s former teammate of the Rockets, Ralph Alston, was known as the "streetball master".

Because of his excellent strength, he finally entered the NBA. Although his ball-handling skills are outstanding and his offense has a strong streetball style, he did not play well. He has wandered in the Bucks, Warriors, Heat, and Raptors in his career Dragons and Rockets, etc. After retiring, he served as a scout for the Timberwolves.

Looking at the current NBA now, Crawford is Jordan in streetball.

Therefore, those who want to enter the NBA still need to train in a down-to-earth manner. The key is to hone their skills and pay attention to actual combat. No matter how good-looking things are, in front of real strength, they can only look up.

What Chu Xiao didn't expect was that there was an action guide for filming such an episode. An old black man who was half a head shorter than himself walked over, wearing black sweatpants and a gray hoodie, but he looked younger than him. He is young, wears reading glasses, has white hair and beard, and even walks tremblingly, which makes people worry about his state.

The street player with dreadlocks is called KAY, and he couldn't help laughing, "Old man, can you do it? You come out to guide basketball at such an old age."

Another street player Corden also echoed, "That's right, is this crew so poor that they can only invite such old guys? I can't help but worry about whether I can still receive the money after the filming is over."

"Yeah, yeah, we have NBA players here, so we don't need guidance." The guy with the "bitch" tattooed on his body said.

Hearing that there are NBA players, the old man adjusted his glasses and looked up at Chu Xiao. Although he is not young, his eyes are piercing.

Chu Xiao suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure from it, and looked up instantly.

The old man didn't meet his eyes, but continued to walk forward slowly, making an extremely hoarse voice as he walked, "Young man, don't look down on the old man so much, maybe I can dunk on your head."

The old man's words immediately made everyone burst into laughter.But no one has the same knowledge as him. This old guy must be 70 to [-] years old, and he looks like he is about to fall down when he walks. Who would believe that he can dunk. It would be great if he could lift a basketball.

Chu Xiao didn't have any feelings about the appearance of this old man. It was the first time he was filming in his life, and there were all kinds of weird people in the crew, so he bowed his head to familiarize himself with the lines, and then began to warm up again.

The line is only one sentence, "Beauty, are you looking at me?"

The old man finally walked in front of everyone, his hoarse voice reappeared, "Listen up, children, you will fight for real when the shooting starts later, show your true skills and stage a fierce competition, like this The pictures taken are wonderful, and can also show the excellence of the protagonist. And the machine will follow the protagonist, so you don’t have to worry that you won’t be able to capture him.”

"That's it?" said the guy with the "Bitch" tattooed on his body.

"It wasn't arranged like this before. I just need to pretend to fight. The protagonist poses for the camera at several key angles. We cooperate from the side to highlight the handsome and chic of the protagonist." KAY also raised objections.

The old man said unmoved, "The previous one has been overthrown and restarted. If you don't believe me, ask the director."

Chu Xiao followed everyone to look at the director, and sure enough, he saw the director nodded.In addition, the staff on site seemed to have increased a lot, as if a bunch of men and women had suddenly appeared.

He even found a lot of familiar faces among them, including Matt Damon, "Little Plum" Leonardo, Robert Downey Jr. and other Hollywood superstars, who were probably filming in the nearby studio. It is said that the Lakers players are here to play guest roles, and after the film and television debut, let's take advantage of free time to come and join in the fun.

Their appearance caused even greater commotion at the scene. Many people kept their eyes on them, but didn't notice that filming had already started in the stadium.

Since it was a real fight, it was divided into a 5v5 lineup. Chu Xiao led 4 street players to challenge the five-member team composed of KAY, Corden and "Bitch".

Chu Xiao has the right to the ball. After catching the ball, he encountered KAY's one-on-one defense at a 45° angle on the right outside the three-point line. He dribbled the ball with his left and right hands crossed, and KAY, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, spread his hands and feet block his way.

Chu Xiao made a fake move to break through to the left. KAY did not fall into the wrong position, but leaned forward even more, bending down to find physical contact to test the direction of his breakthrough.

As a result, KAY's height appeared too short in front of Chu Xiao, and after leaning forward and bending over, it only reached his waist.

Chu Xiao played "cheap", raised his wrist and threw the ball from the top of KAY's head to behind him. When KAY realized and was about to turn around to grab the ball, Chu Xiao used his strength to break through his block. He left him behind, then reached out to pick up the ball and rushed towards the basket. Facing the tall but thin Corden, he stood up forcefully and "hanged" him to dunk the ball backhand into the basket.

This ball is completely crushed in strength.

Turning around, the opponent failed to make a shot. Chu Xiao dribbled the ball forward, but no one from the opponent could keep up. Facing the empty basket, he got up and made a tomahawk dunk.

This time it's all about speed.

In the next round, Chu Xiao dribbled the ball with his left and right hands crossed. As soon as he made a fake shot, he tricked the opponent into taking off. Easy layup.

"Crack! Kick! Kick!"

Just when Chu Xiao was in full swing, the director yelled "click" three times in succession, and the director shouted with the microphone, "Chu Xiao, you really think this is a competition, Penny is already in place!" , why don't you come forward to strike up a conversation?"

Chu Xiao turned around and saw that Penny was really standing behind the baseline, showing herself a nympho.

"Sorry, stop it." Chu Xiao hurriedly ran over and said, "Beauty, are you looking at me?"
