Superstar Tyreke

Chapter 24 Kobe's Advice

Master Xu has worked in Los Angeles for many years and has developed feelings for Los Angeles. He was overjoyed to see Kobe Bryant, the favorite of Los Angeles.Under Tyreke's greeting, he shook hands with Kobe and took a photo and asked for his autograph. After Tyreke told Kobe that Master Xu was the master chef of the restaurant, Kobe also agreed to give Master Xu a pair of his signature sneakers. I heard that Master Xu often Going to the Staples to watch the game, and promised to give Master Xu a set of season tickets for the front position, all this made Master Xu feel dizzy, happiness came too suddenly!Master Xu, who was immersed in joy, personally cooked a table of special dishes. When he was about to leave for Tyreke and Kobe to enjoy, he was stopped by Kobe to eat together.

"Well, Master Xu, you are good at cooking, and this tastes really good!" Kobe couldn't help admiring after taking a bite of the honey sauce in front of him.

"It's okay, it's okay." Master Xu touched his head with a silly smile.

"What is this pot, my God, it's so fresh!"

"It's okay. It's Buddha Jumping Over the Wall."

"This is sea cucumber, right? The sauce tastes really good!"

"Abalone juice with Liao ginseng, it's okay."

Master Xu cooked all the dishes he was good at. The various cooking methods and exquisite dishes greatly refreshed Kobe’s taste buds. This dinner made Kobe extremely happy. It was mostly the appreciation and encouragement from the seniors to the juniors. Later, after drinking some Moutai wine brought by Terek, the two gradually lost a little strangeness and talked like friends.

"Tyreke, I didn't expect the taste of your restaurant to be really good. I haven't eaten Chinese food before, but now it seems that the taste is really rich, and it's really enjoyable to eat!" Kobe was a little drunk at this time, and his tone was a little confused.

"It's all master Xu's craftsmanship!"

"Yes, Master Xu's craftsmanship is really good!" Kobe gave Master Xu a thumbs up.

"It's okay..." Master Xu and superstars like Kobe were in a state of sluggishness after eating.

Kobe turned his head and put his arms around Tyreke and said: "Brother, I have made friends with you, I have always liked you very much, and now the taste of the dishes in your restaurant is to my liking, there is no reason not to make friends with you! "

"I will open a branch in Los Angeles in the future. I knew that Master Xu's craftsmanship is so good, and he is still working in Los Angeles. I also opened a Chinese restaurant and scooped him up."

"Brother, you didn't know much about Chinese food before, why open a Chinese restaurant?" Tyreke teased.

"That's right, I really haven't seen any NBA player with your preferences. But then again, this can only be eaten occasionally. After all, our diet must be strictly controlled, especially during the season. Speaking of basketball , then I’ll talk to you a few more words.” Kobe’s expression became serious, and Tyreke listened carefully.

"Through the match against you last season and this game, I found that you still have a lot of room for improvement. The most important thing is shooting. Without a basket, your strength will inevitably be limited, but you are still young. As long as you are willing to practice Your talented shooting can definitely be developed. In the early stages of my career, I still had two seasons in which my three-point shooting percentage was lower than 30.00%! Another point, your ball-handling skills are nothing to say. Anyone with a discerning eye can see your physical condition, but I think your breakthrough habit can be changed. With your physical fitness, you can seek more confrontation and fouls, and you don’t have to create space through dribbling. In the case of no interference or less interference To make a shot, it is necessary to increase the variability of the breakthrough.”

After listening to Kobe's words, Tyreke was thoughtful, he knew the problem of shooting, he used to be a player without a basket in his memory, now he has everything that Tyreke Evans has The ball skills and the characteristics of not shooting are also preserved.It didn't feel so obvious in the training before, but in actual combat, I found that my shooting was really not very accurate.However, Tyreke has always been proud of his breakthrough. All kinds of cool moves that Tyreke never dared to think about, but now they are all done at will, especially his big turn is always invincible. I never felt that there was anything wrong with my breakthrough.Listening to what Kobe said now, recalling the few games I played, it seems that there is a grain of truth. I rarely call opponents for fouls when I break through. Thinking about how to improve yourself
Seeing Tyreke's pensive look, Kobe smiled and patted him, "Okay bro, don't rush, you are only 21 years old, you have played less than 100 games in your career, grow up slowly, your conditions Put it here, you can do it!"

Tyreke pouted and thought, this is actually his fifth NBA regular season game, but he still has to continue to strengthen training!
"It's almost enough to eat, Tyreke, is it okay for me to bring some dishes from your restaurant to my teammates to try?"

"Of course it's okay, Master Xu. There should be fewer customers in the store now. Let the chef who is free make a few more signature dishes and send them to the hotel where the Lakers are staying later."

"Okay, good boss!" Master Xu hurriedly went to the kitchen to greet everyone to get ready.Afterwards, Tyreke personally drove Kobe back to the hotel, while Master Xu followed behind in a van with the exquisite delivery from Penglai Pavilion.

"Come, come, Master Xu, bring the dishes up."

"Brother, you are so polite, next time I come to Los Angeles to play a game, I will treat you well!"

After sending Kobe away, Tyreke returned to his home, dragged his body tired, took a hot bath, made a cup of hot tea and leaned comfortably on the sofa. Today's loss made Tyreke feel a lot. Four consecutive victories did make Tyreke overestimate his own strength and the strength of the team.Today, after talking with a superstar like Kobe who has been fighting in the league for more than ten years, I found that my shortcomings are not obvious when dealing with ordinary opponents, and I am not so invincible in front of top teams. Just a rookie.Similarly, the Sacramento Kings were only the second-to-last team in the Western Conference last season. Now they still have to put their minds on it. The team is not a strong team. It must face the game as a challenger. Win and forget about it.Today's failure should have poured cold water on the rest of the team. I have to admit that there is a gap in strength, but not only myself, but the entire team is still young and the season is still long. Let's take it one step at a time.

"What I have to do is to continue to improve my strength and truly become a qualified team leader!" Tyreke's eyes are firm. To lead the team well, he must become stronger and have the ability to take charge of the game in adversity. strength!
