Kwame Brown's Freshman

Chapter 178 5. Future Planning
If Kwame was asked to choose the person he least wanted to see right now, it would undoubtedly be Hilton.Kwame originally told Hilary to go to their hotel in Little Bath, but Hilary had already negotiated with Hilton to live together at night. Now Kwame not only has to spend the lonely night alone, but also has to worry about it If Hilton says something is missing, it's over.

"What's the matter? Didn't you say you can't look down on my friend!" Hilary was a little unhappy, "Whitney is really a good person, but she is a bit silly, just like before I met you, old It was cheated. Whitney is actually very pitiful, and she was tricked into taking videos, and it turned out that the man was doing it for her family’s money, and those videos showed that Whitney is also very pitiful.”

"No, no, I didn't look down on her. I didn't mean that. It's just that I'm a big man living in a room where a woman usually lives. It's really awkward." Kwame saw Hilary looking a little hurt, and said with inspiration.

"Ah, it turned out that my little Kwame was shy! It doesn't matter! You can just sleep in the guest room. Selena, Whitney and I sleep in the master bedroom. Whitney usually sleeps in the master bedroom. The guest room There are so many, you and Chris can just choose two." Seeing that Kwame really didn't look down on Hilton, Hilary felt better all of a sudden.

"Ah! Selena wants to be with you too? Don't! Selena must live with me tonight!" Chris urged sadly again, and quickly protested.

"Oh? Chris, ask Selena if she would like to sleep with you or with me and Whitney?" Hilary looked at Chris with a smug expression. They just met each other not long ago, but Hilary has completely made Hilary Grab it in your own hands.

"Of course I'm with Sister Hillary!" Chris, who was still holding out a glimmer of hope, completely collapsed on the seat, and the three of them laughed loudly when they saw this.

Three days passed quickly, and what Kwame was worried about did not happen, and Hilton did not specifically look for Kwame, and nothing happened between the two of them.Kwame was a little lucky, but also a little regretful.

On July [-]st, the four of them returned to Los Angeles. Kwame had been in Los Angeles for so long and hadn’t gone to Hollywood to take a good look. Hillary was already an “old man” there, and she took the initiative to act as a tour guide, leading the three of them to Hollywood. over and over.

July [-]th, Los Angeles Airport.

"Little Kwame, you have to take good care of yourself, do you know that, Selena is going to trouble you to make Kwame breakfast every day, I will finish the announcement as soon as possible and come back." Hilary dragged her small travel bag, looking like To travel far.

"You should also take good care of your body, don't work too hard, take more rest, and don't rush to finish the work together." Kwame is very supportive of Hillary's career.

"Ha, it seems that you really don't want me to come back soon! I'm in a hurry to finish my work and I don't know who it is for! Could it be that you don't want me anymore!" Seeing that Kwame was a little unhappy, Hilary acted coquettishly .

"No, no, it's not that I don't want you to come back, I think you are by my side every day, but if I hurt your body because of this, then I will feel very guilty." Kwame hastily explained.

"I'm sorry you don't dare to..."

"Chris, it's so sour." Selena couldn't bear it when she heard the two people saying goodbye.

"Fortunately, Selena, although you are so beautiful, you are not from the entertainment industry. It's great, we are together every day." Chris held Selena's face.

"Ahhh, you are more sour than your brother!" Although Selena said this, she enjoyed Chris's words very much.

After sending off Hillary, Kwame's life returned to the life of three points and one line in the arena, home, and park.

Kwame’s main practice skills are dribbling and shooting. At the beginning, Chris was with him. When Chris and Selena received their college admission letters, they drove together to celebrate by car. Later, Only Kwame was left to train alone.

It is said that successful professional players are lonely, and Kwame understands this now.For the next month, Kwame arrived at the arena every day at [-] am and left at [-] pm. The summer training meal was even more unpalatable than usual. At noon, he ate unappetizing boiled meat and steak with only salt.Facing five chairs every day, I dribbled the ball between the five chairs like a human being. I practice dribbling all by myself. Although it is boring, the effect is obvious.
Kwame has never really thought about how to play outside. Although he has been developing towards all-round development, he has only practiced COSCO shooting and dribbling. Although there are many support balls, they are all inside support. Passing and cutting the ball after reaching the high post.

Although he had the experience of playing small forward at the end of the season, Kwame has never used Thirty's true style of play as a perimeter player.

With such a long offseason, it's time for Kwame to consider this matter.

Now it’s time to make a decision. Kwame is a center forward, and his dominance lies there. If the tonnage is increased and the inside skills are fully honed, as long as there is no injury to affect him, he will definitely become a historical center in a few years, and Kwame Among other things, grass resistance is definitely one of the best in the league.It stands to reason that Kwame should work hard to hone his inside skills, the talent is there.

But now there is a very serious problem, Kobe is a Jordan-type player!

What is a Jordan-type player?It is a player who is not compatible with a big center!
Maybe you will say, Kobe won three consecutive championships with O'Neal, so what is incompatible with a big center?
The Jordan-type player I'm talking about is Jordan in the next three consecutive championships!
Everyone knows that Kobe's skills, attitude, ability and Jordan are almost printed out of the same mold.Both of them started to transform into inside players almost in their tenth season. Look at Jordan's performance in the next three consecutive championships. The strongest trick is low-post singles!Who was Jordan's inside partner at that time?Dennis Rodman and Luke Longley!They are all the kind of players who have almost no independent offensive ability!
As a white player, Luke Longley has a good mid-range shot, so that his defenders dare not let him go to double-team Jordan.Rodman is even more ruthless. No one dares to let him go and let him grab the board freely. He always needs someone to keep an eye on him.In this way, the entire inside offense is played by Jordan again. This is also the reason why the Bulls won three consecutive championships without a big center in the second dynasty. Although there is no big center, they have inside scoring points!
Jordan's previous three consecutive championships are exactly the same as the Lakers' three consecutive championships. Jordan is a flying player. On the defensive end, there is Horace Grant, a super defensive insider who averaged double-doubles and nearly [-] blocks per game. On the offensive end, there is Pippen. assistant.During Kobe's three consecutive championships, he was also a flying player, but on the defensive end Kobe was the strongest defender, and the inside became the first offensive point. In terms of organization, Brian Shaw was a loyal fan of the triangle offense.

Jordan rested for more than a year after the end of the first three consecutive championships. After returning to the court, he found that his athletic ability was not as good as before. In the first playoffs when he came back, he was called his successor Penny Anfernee-Hardaway It exploded to death.However, the rest of the past two years was not for nothing. No one believed that Jordan did not touch basketball in those two years. In the third year after retiring for the first time, he knew that his athletic ability was not enough to dominate the world. Jordan immediately became the leading scorer inside. , Hao took [-] wins plus the championship.

And when it comes time to pursue the second dynasty now, Kobe, like Jordan, began to shift to the inside, and the mid-range is getting better and better. In general, Kobe has now gone to Jordan's old road and become an inside player.That is to say, Kwame will gradually lose the inside space, so it is necessary to develop outside. The team also hinted that he will do this, because his physical talent is there. If he can do it, why not do it? ?If both of them are playing in the paint, but there is a conflict, the team is unwilling to send either of them away. Anyway, there is a solution, why not use it?So the team also wants Kwame to play outside.

Well, in fact, the team hinted that Kwame was already developing outside. The main reason for this is that he himself wants to play outside. Otherwise, who can force him?But there is a problem, Kwame can't find someone to learn from.Like Magic Johnson, Odom, James, and the French magician Dior who just came to the NBA. Although they can all play from the first to the fifth position, they all started as point guards and later grew up. After being high, it comes with the attributes of a center forward.There has never been anyone who has played a center for many years like myself. He has been a center for a long time and then developed outside. Although Wilt Chamberlain has also been the assist leader and the role of a center point guard, he is not the so-called As a point guard, he relies on his wide vision and excellent passing ability, so Kwame is really at a loss as to how to train.

A month has passed, and Kwame's training has reached a bottleneck. He has practiced good ball control, even better than many small forwards.But that's it. Let him compare with those players who are [-] feet [-] inches. After all, the center of gravity is too high. Looking for abuse.Magic Johnson dribbles most of the time with feints and a strong body.

The time soon came to August [-]th, and Kwame was still training. Today, his training subjects are shooting and strength training. After training, he will also practice ball control.This was arranged by the trainer Gary. Although Gary doesn't know how to practice from the inside to the outside, he knows what training is most suitable for Kwame. From the three points that Kwame wants to increase his strength, improve his shooting and strengthen his dribbling, Gary Made the best plan for his training.

The first thing to practice is strength training, then practice shooting, and finally practice dribbling for half an hour before the end. The purpose is to improve the strength while maintaining the touch and feel of the ball. Many players have increased their shooting level due to the increase in weight and strength in the summer. The big drop is because you didn't pay attention to this.

The alarm clock rang at the end of half an hour of dribbling, and Kwame collapsed to the ground. He was too tired to move every day, but he still had to practice every day.

"Where is the little bastard Chris happy? Bill and the three rookies were also sent to Las Vegas by Shore to participate in the upcoming summer league. I was the only one, and Kobe didn't know where he was. Go to China, I also want to travel!" Kwame complained lying on the floor.

Kobe was terminated by adidas at the beginning of last year and became a laughing stock, but with the explosion this year, that is, since he scored [-] points, adidas regretted it and wanted to re-sign with Kobe. Kobe refused decisively, even if adidas continued to increase prices, Kobe He didn't agree either.Just after Kobe won the championship mvp, Nike matched the offer from adidas and sent a [-]-year [-] million contract, and also agreed to build Kobe's own brand K. o. B． E, after some bargaining between the Pekarin team and Nike's public relations team, the contract was finally fixed at [-] million in seven years plus Kobe's own brand, conditions, Nike's sub-brand, and bonuses. Official awards, such as being selected to the best team, best defensive team, mvp and other awards, there are some additional bonuses.

Just when Kwame was envious and jealous, Kwame's mobile phone next to the drinking fountain rang.Kwame had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​lying down for a while, and got up to answer the phone.

Pecarine?Kwame saw his agent on the caller ID.Is there something wrong?This guy wouldn't even call if he had nothing to do.
