Kwame Brown's Freshman

Chapter 17 Death Parker
Kwame thought that after all, he had just met Hillary, so he should not risk being caught by reporters to find a woman.So, Kwame called Chris, woke up Chris who was already asleep, and drove to pick him up.So, that night, Kwame spent it lonely again. . .Oh, and of course, there's Chris to keep him company. . .

The conflict between Kwame and Tim really aroused heated discussions in the media.The team held a press conference for this.Announced an internal three-match ban on Kwame.and layoffs of Tim Brown.He also announced the signing of Smush Parker, who had just been waived by the Suns.He also revealed the process of this conflict through the media inclined to his own team.

Intra-team conflicts happen from time to time in the nba. After the madman chokes the head coach, this kind of small news can no longer attract the attention of fans.Coupled with what was revealed, Kwame was lucky not to be criticized by the media.

Kwame glanced at the news hastily and found that there was nothing to pay attention to.

Hillary is still busy with her work, but after not seeing her for a month, Kwame feels very uncomfortable.It wasn't like this before. When I didn't have a girlfriend, I just went to the hotel and asked for a woman.How can I be so unhappy now.I really envy that guy Kobe, his wife is willing to give up being a model for him and become a full-time wife.

It's really painful, forget it, let's go to the arena.

After coming to the team, Kwame found that only the staff were there.Kwame remembered that the three-game suspension was a three-game losing streak.But they are all super weak teams. Even without Kwame, the Lakers should be able to easily win the game.After all, the opponents are the Knicks, Raptors, and Jazz.

Kwame didn't care about these games. He has been doing shooting and strength training these days.Strength training is simple and simple.Just follow the training form given by the trainer.That's easy for Kwame.

But shot drills are a different story.Kwame, who has been stronger than others since he was a child, has always played with his body and has never had similar shooting training.He rarely practiced shooting when he was in the Wizards, because no one cared about him at all.

Kwame is very depressed now. At the first practice of free throws, I don’t know if I don’t practice, but I’m startled when I practice.Hit straight to chase Rajon Rondo! ! !A hit rate in the twenties... But who is Rondo, strange, why do you think of this name when you think of free throws?really weird?Never mind, keep practicing,

Anyone who has played basketball knows that when he first played, he obviously felt that he was aiming very well, but his shots were too far.Slowly adjust your posture. When you aim the ball accurately and practice well, you find that you have finally aimed to shoot, but you don’t have the strength to shoot as far as the basket? !His own strength is obviously great.How could he not even have the strength to throw a ball? ?
In fact, it's not that your strength has become smaller, but that your posture when aiming is too far from your usual power posture.You need to slowly practice the new force posture to hit the ball.

Ever since, Kwame spent this week between free throws and strength training.Strength training is a gradual process.Free throw drills, take your time. .However, Kwame found that his inside jumper has been quite reliable since he started training in the offseason, at least not three-way.The chances of hitting the rebound are pretty good, as long as the ball is thrown, at least it won't miss the rebound.

Before the Lakers set off for three consecutive away games, everyone believed that Kobe could lead the team to easily win three consecutive away games and return to Los Angeles.However, the Lakers suffered a two-game losing streak beyond people's expectations. After Kobe Bryant scored 55 points in Madison's regular outburst to beat the Knicks, the Lakers lost to the Raptors and Jazz in a row. Something that none of the team's fans expected.

Kobe completely changed his style of play in these two games, and began to use more low-post singles, and no longer kept chug-chug as before.When Kobe played in the low post, if the opponent didn't double-team, Kobe could almost score.As soon as they double-teamed Kobe, Kobe immediately passed to the open guy.This should be a great tactic, simple and straightforward.Olajuwon in the past and Tim Duncan now use this method to win games.However, that's all based on the fact that the team has a very important group of people: three-point shooters.That's right, it's someone the Lakers almost don't have, a three-point shooter.

Strictly speaking, the current three-point shooter of the Lakers is only Vujacic, but Vujacic played in Serbia before, and the three-point line there is much shorter than in the NBA, so he is very uncomfortable, and often catches the ball and dribbles one step to three. Shooting is done inside the line, which gives the defender time to come back and defend.But if he catches the ball inside the three-point line, he can't effectively open up space for Kobe.And the Lakers are only a pure pitcher, do they still count on power forwards like Wharton or Cook?Although he has the same reputation as Nowitzki's outside power forward, his height, weight, and even shooting posture are very similar, but his shooting accuracy is far behind.Therefore, the more the Lakers' pitchers can't make shots, the more the opponents double-team Kobe, and the more they double-team Kobe, the more chances the Lakers have outside the line, which exposes the fact that the Lakers don't have three-pointers.

However, Kobe tried to change his style of play in order to better cooperate with Kwame, so he kept practicing low-post singles in the game.Rudy didn't stop him either, because he didn't care about these two insignificant games, and the tactics were executed very well, but he couldn't make shots from outside. Can Kobe be blamed for this?Therefore, the word pitcher was added to Bath's signing list.

However, the Lakers' new point guard, Smush Parker, seems to be playing pretty well, averaging 10 points and 5 assists per game.It looks wonderful.But if you take a closer look, you will find that almost all of these assists were passed to Kobe after dribbling half court, and Kobe scored directly.However, the Lakers now need a player with such a strong breakthrough ability, because Kobe's transformation has made the Lakers' outside breakthrough, which was originally at the forefront of the league, directly enter the bottom of the league. is quite happy.So Kupchak decided to swap his [-]-day contract for a guaranteed contract.Stay until the end of the season.

Everyone back at Staples looked at Kwame who was training crazily for a while, and ignored this guy. After announcing the disbandment, they each formed a team and went to the dungeons with beautiful bosses in Los Angeles.Only newcomers Parker and Bryant stayed.Kobe was in a bad mood and went straight to strength training.Parker chatted with Kwame and got to know his new teammates.After a while, after Parker's agent came, Parker went to the general manager's office.After a while, Parker's new contract was signed.Seeing that he was in a good mood, Kwame pulled Kobe and called Parker to celebrate his new contract.

Of course eating is expensive.Parker was a little flattered by this.Because what he knew before coming to the Lakers was that Kwame didn't like street players (the news came out decisively from Tim), so he drove away his predecessor.After returning to Los Angeles, I also saw that my teammates were at odds with Kwame (this baby thinks too much, it’s just that they are a little speechless to Kwame, and they think about the Lakers training anytime, anywhere, is that Kobe? You alone What is the Lakers center doing for this fun?), he should be as difficult to get along with as Kobe, Kobe has been here for so long except shouting: "Give me the ball!" He didn't say anything else to himself.So Parker was very worried that he would offend Kwame, which would affect his future in the team. He didn't want to lose his job and have to go to Europe to play again.But beyond Parker's expectation, Kwame was so enthusiastic.

This made Parker a little overwhelmed, so Parker went to have a meal with Kwame and Kobe nervously.In the process, Parker's startled performance surprised Kobe.But thinking that the other party is new to Los Angeles, it may also be nervous.I didn't care.Kwame didn't even pay attention, and tried to eat a lot of money. Kwame, who was gaining weight, ate several steaks made of Kobe meat.Because Chris eats three meals at school, Kwame usually eats alone.So Kwame always has a good appetite every time he goes out to eat with others. As the saying goes, a good appetite is a good mood, so he started joking with Kobe.

Kobe used free throws to stimulate Kwame, and Kwame used Kobe's consecutive losses to fight back.Kobe said that Kwame only knew to hide under Hillary's skirt, and Kwame only knew to cry next to Vanessa after laughing at Kobe Eagle County.A look of tension.

Listening to the ridicule and blows of the two, Parker didn't dare to intervene, and finished his meal in fear.He hurriedly said sorry, and left in a hurry as if fleeing for his life after saying goodbye.

"Kobe, why do you think Parker is walking so fast? I still want to show him around to get to know the places. Los Angeles is much bigger than small cities in Europe. I'm afraid he will get lost."

"I don't know. I guess I'm not used to the food here. After all, I just came back from Europe. Forget it, go back to the arena to rest and practice shooting after digesting."

"Yes. Boss. Let's go." After speaking, the two went back to the arena. (Hey, hey, I'm afraid of you two, okay? I don't know it at all. Also, I played 5 preseason games in the Suns this season. I just came back from Europe. Adapting to food? That’s Kobe you...)
Ever since, after a happy meal.Kwame and Kobe started the long training road again.As for Parker, let him be.
