My Name is Kobe Bryant

"Guys, come over to have a meeting." Harris gathered the Lakers in the training hall, and nodded with satisfaction looking at Kobe who looked normal.

Del Harris knows that at Vanity Fair in Los Angeles, even if you are a saint, you will inevitably be consumed by the media. Kobe has just turned 18, and it's only now that the topic has exploded, and it's still a positive topic, which makes Harris very satisfied.

"The Detroit Pistons is a team owned by Grant Hill alone! To win this game, the only thing we have to do is strangle Hill!"

"Many teams tried to kill Hill's offense, and they all failed! Instead, Hill connected the team and played an unbelievable performance."

"Although the Blazers have worked wonders on Hill's Jordan Rule, we don't have time to practice this defensive tactic that requires high-speed rotation, and we don't need this tactic."

"Bruce! Do you have the confidence to defend Hill alone?"

"Uh, yes." Bowen was a little lacking in confidence, and he replied in response after being glared at by Kobe beside him.

"Others cut off the connection between the Pistons players and Hill." Harris wanted to form a cage, and Grant Hill was the bird in the cage, leaving Hill isolated and trapped in singles, and the Pistons' offensive system naturally broke.

"On the offensive end, Kobe, you need to pass the ball more." Although Harris spoils Kobe, he doesn't want Kobe to play individual heroic basketball. The team configuration is already considered very good, so there is no need to play like that. .

"Okay, coach, I know." Kobe replied, and he knew in his heart that this style of play recently is not a long-term solution. Although the statistics look scary, the team's offensive efficiency is not necessarily as high as before. Especially for the consumption of physical energy, it takes a long time of physical therapy to recover after the competition.

If you continue to fight like this, it is very likely that you will suffer an injury accidentally, which will have an impact on this young body that is difficult to recover.

After all, he is only 18 years old. Even if Kobe tries to avoid strong physical contact, high scores must have a large number of baskets. Just relying on jump shots, the touch is not sure.

Kobe decided to finish these few games, take it easy when he is a full-name star, and take more shots when he feels good.

"Okay, all disbanded! Everyone have a good rest! See you tomorrow!" Harris clapped his hands and ended the team training.

"Kobe, aren't you leaving?" Eddie Jones, who was about to go back to rest, couldn't help asking curiously when he saw that Kobe hadn't returned to the locker room.

"Throw a few more shots, Eddie, go back and rest first."

"OK~Kobe, don't take the shit in the media to heart."

Kobe smiled helplessly, why everyone felt that they would be driven crazy by the media.

Come on, you'll find out in a few days. It's the media that's going to drive me crazy.

On January 18, at the Great Western Forum Arena, after experiencing the championship declaration incident, today's Great Western Forum was noisier than usual. There are still two hours before the start of the game, and Kobe is doing shooting practice. At this time, a lot of spectators have already entered the stadium.

Bryant's old friend Jack Nelson also sat in the exclusive seat on the sidelines.

"Brother, you have been in the limelight recently." Jack Nelson also appeared in his seat.

"Small scene, the best show is yet to come."

"Oh, what do you say? Let's hear it?" Jack Nelson said gossip.

"I said it in the media, I plan to get 40+ in seven consecutive games."

"For real?"

"real."

Jack Nelson patted Kobe on the shoulder with admiration.

"Good job, if you get the 40+ in seven shows, I'll be your producer for free! By the way, the audition has been arranged, on the 21st, is there any problem?"

"No problem. That's a deal!" The two clapped their hands high. If Jack Nelson's name is used, then this movie must be easier to reap the box office.

At today's Lakers home court, not only Jack Nelson, Jerry West and Dr. Buss also came to the scene, waiting for the start of the game in the box.

"Is it possible for us to get Grant Hill?" Dr. Buss has always been determined to rebuild SHOW TIME. In his opinion, the Lakers are still short of a top small forward.

As long as they get a top small forward, the Lakers' lineup and SHOWTIME era must be no less inferior.

"The Pistons will not let people go." Jerry West patiently explained that this kind of cornerstone player, unless it is the Magic management, it is impossible for other teams to let go before they have a new cornerstone.

"Then do I have any hope of getting Pippen? It is said that he is very dissatisfied with his contract." There are indeed not many top small forwards in the league, and they are far from the prosperity of small forwards in later generations.

"That's right, he signed a seven-year, 18 million contract in 1992, and his current salary ranks 122nd in the NBA."

"Try to make a trade. You tell Pippen that I am willing to offer a maximum salary. You know what I mean. Even if it doesn't work, it's a good way to separate the Bulls."

Jerry West nodded slightly, and the two real old foxes smiled at each other, saying nothing.

Now that Kobe has issued a declaration of winning the championship, we old guys have to work hard!

The Los Angeles Lakers also have a name, that is, the Los Angeles Bidders.

This strong confrontation between No. 1 in the West and No. 2 in the East, coupled with Kobe's rhetoric before the game, unsurprisingly attracted the attention of a large number of fans and the media.

"President, I have a hunch that the ratings of this game will surprise us." Adam Silver is making statistics, and the ratings of this game when the pre-match news is broadcast has greatly exceeded other games in the same period up.

"Kobe, Grant. 8VS33, this confrontation can become a classic like Michael VS Isaiah."

"In addition, the deal between the Heat and the Mavericks has been negotiated. Pat Riley actually used Voshan Leonard, Sasha Danilovich, and Martin Moorsep. These three role players, let The Mavericks agreed to the Mashburn deal! Pat Riley must have used an outside move! How could he not even get a draft pick? Mashburn is a top ten small forward in the league."

"Pat Riley?" Stern thought for a while. The situation in the Eastern Conference is basically dominated by the Bulls. This will inevitably reduce the intensity and excitement of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

"Leave him alone."

"But..."

"Don't worry about him, it's time for another top team in the East."
