NBA: James wants to team up with me

Chapter 52 One-on-one with Kobe? What kind of novel plot is this?

On the morning of the second day of the training day, Wang Chong arrived at the arena very early.

As a first-year rookie, Wang Chong had to pretend to be diligent and serious in training to show the coaching staff, even if he was just pretending. After all, no coach would dislike players who train hard.

But when Wang Chong arrived at the arena early, he heard the sound of basketball hitting the ground.

"Did someone actually get to the arena before me?"

Wang Chong glanced at his watch. At this time, the hand watch clearly showed the time, 6:03 in the morning.

Has anyone come to practice so early?

Wang Chong's mind immediately thought of that figure at four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles.

Wang Chong went to the locker room to change his clothes and came to the arena. Sure enough, he saw a picturesque jump shot.

Kobe shot a mid-range behind-the-back jumper with graceful posture and stretched movements. The basketball drew a perfect parabola in the air and then hit the net.

"Shh."

At this time, Kobe still looked very young, and he was obviously much younger than the No. 24 Black Mamba during the Lakers' two consecutive championships.

When Wang Chong walked into the court, Kobe was already covered in sweat, and he didn't know how long he had been practicing.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Kobe paused slightly and turned to look at Wang Chong. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but Wang Chong's iconic black hair and yellow skin made him quickly understand Wang Chong's identity.

Seeing Kobe looking at him, Wang Chong thought for a moment and raised his hand to say hello.

Although Kobe is now at the forefront, as an NBA fan, especially a fan born in the 90s, stars such as Kobe, Iverson, and McGrady have been around for almost his entire youth.

However, he had just raised his hand with a smile and was about to speak, but Kobe had already turned his head and continued shooting, completely ignoring Wang Chong.

Wang Chong: "..."

Okay, it's really cool.

Kobe was like this when he was young... No, to be precise, even Kobe in the twilight years of his career was not much better.

Wang Chong didn't know at this time that last night, Kobe and Fisher talked on the phone and learned about O'Neal taking Wang Chong as his younger brother.

At this time, in Kobe's eyes, Wang Chong has been labeled as O'Neal, so how can he treat him with a smile?

Wang Chong is not someone who asks for trouble. Since Kobe directly ignored him, he will not take the initiative to show his warm face and cold butt.

Picking up a basketball from the basketball stand on the side, Wang Chong went to the other side of the court to warm up by shooting.

Although Kobe just chose to ignore Wang Chong, he did not really ignore the opponent. When Wang Chong was shooting, he was also silently observing the opponent.

Kobe had never seen Wang Chong play, but he had seen Anthony play in the NCAA, so he knew very well that Anthony was very good. If Wang Chong could beat Anthony in the summer league, there must be something special about him.

Then he saw Wang Chong's uncanny mid-range shot.

Kobe's main offensive methods are breakthroughs and mid-range shots. The lethality of Wang Chong's mid-range shot can be seen at a glance, especially the almost undefeable shot brought by the exaggerated height. It will be a killer even in the NBA. .

"I see. No wonder Cameron suffers from this guy."

Although because of O'Neal, Kobe was already hostile to Wang Chong before he met him.

<divclass="contentadv">But when he saw Wang Chong's ability, Kobe couldn't help but feel happy.

The stronger the Lakers are, the more likely they are to win the championship. This is more important to both Kobe and O'Neal than the conflicts between them.

Therefore, Kobe naturally hopes that Wang Chong will be as strong as possible.

Wang Chong was still shooting by himself, and at this moment - "Hey!".

Wang Chong turned his head when he heard the sound, but what he saw was a basketball flying towards him.

Subconsciously catching the basketball, he looked at Kobe with some confusion as he threw the basketball to him.

"Rookie, come and hit two balls with me."

Kobe was concise and to the point.

Wang Chong's heart jumped suddenly.

One-on-one with Kobe?

That's Kobe, who is recognized as one of the stars with the strongest jumping ability. Even if it's just one-on-one, even Jordan may not necessarily win the opponent.

According to Jordan's original words in the interview, "Only Kobe can beat me in a one-on-one duel, and he is qualified to be included in the best team in history"!

Of course, there are also a lot of controversies about Kobe's one-on-one duel. For example, Kobe's good friend Tracy McGrady once shouted from the air about who would win the one-on-one with Kobe. Both sides said that they defeated the other in a one-on-one duel. In the end, there was no real difference. result.

Wang Chong really didn't expect that on the first day he met Kobe, he would actually challenge him to a duel. Isn't this too much like a bloody plot in a novel?

But since Kobe took the initiative to invite him, how could Wang Chong give in?

He really wants to know how far he is from a superstar like Kobe, who averaged 30+7+6 per game last season and was selected for the All-NBA First Team.

After all, Anthony is just a rookie who has not yet landed in the NBA. His skills and experience are far from professional standards. He is completely different from Kobe!

-

"You serve."

Out of strong confidence in his own strength, Kobe directly gave the right to serve to Wang Chong.

In a 1-on-1 duel, the right to go first is very important. In many cases, this directly determines who will score 21 points first to end the game.

Wang Chong stood at the top of the three-point line with the ball, looking directly at Kobe.

The opponent stood relatively back and did not press forward to defend. It seemed that he wanted to test his own abilities first.

Wang Chong did not dare to neglect.

His current overall ability rating is 83, which is already very high, but the overall rating of Kobe opposite him will only be higher.

Referring to Kobe’s ability value in the 2-03 season in the 04K game, it should be 96!

This value is not an exaggeration at all, because starting from the 98-99 season, Kobe started the era of being selected for the best team for 15 consecutive years, especially starting from the 01-02 season, except for O'Neal's departure from the team in 04, the Lakers missed the playoffs. -05 season, the rest of the seasons until the 10-11 season, without exception, Kobe played in double teams. Even in the following two years, although he failed to be selected for the All-Defensive Team, he was still firmly in the All-Defensive Team. .

With such strength, it is not surprising at all to receive an overall ability score of 03 in the 04-96 season.

During this period of Kobe's life, there were only a few players in the league with higher abilities than him, such as O'Neal on the same team, Duncan of the Spurs, Garnett of the Timberwolves, and the rookie of the same year as him, the 76ers' answer, Allen Ayer. Ferson.
