Chapter 134

Well, Portland is on the old west coast of America. In fact, there is no sun at four o'clock

But Zhang Weiping and Kobe Bryant appeared in the training ground at 4 or 5 a.m., which is absolutely true.

Even Richard knew it

……

Although the relationship between Kobe and his parents hasn't turned over yet, his mother Pam's strong desire for control is terrible

Previously, because Kobe Bryant was under 18 years old, his parents were required to sign a contract with the Blazers. Richard met Kobe's parents once.

Although Kobe has an agent, Kobe's signing process and Kobe's parents participate in the whole process. Not only that, they also specially discussed many trivial matters with the pioneer Management

For example, Kobe's residence, such as Kobe's daily food and so on.

The feeling for Richard is that he has a strong desire to control everything. Of course, a strong desire to control his parents is not a bad thing, at least for Bryant, a minor at present.

But when Bryant grew up, this kind of strong and terrible desire for control actually laid a hidden danger for their relationship with Kobe.

The real turning point should be when Kobe is determined to take Vanessa.

Kobe's wedding was miserable. His parents and sister didn't attend. Even Phil Jackson didn't approve of the wedding. None of the Lakers players went to the wedding

……

Now suffering from his mother Pam's desire to control, Kobe Bryant met with easygoing and funny, and also very supportive of Zhang Weiping. Soon, he was "captured" by Zhang Weiping

At six o'clock in the morning, old Wei Ping and little Kobe are sweating and sitting on the floor of the training ground.

It's obvious that the two men have just experienced intense training

"Zhang, in fact, you don't have to come to train with me so early. You should sleep more!" Bryant said to Zhang Weiping with a smile.

Zhang Weiping didn't care about Kobe calling himself Zhang. At first, he also called coach Zhang Weiping, but Zhang felt unfriendly.

"It's OK. I'm in my forties. It's good to train more!"

"It's you, boy, but you really need to take it easy. You don't have to work that hard. You have a great future!"

"If I practice myself out, it's not worth it!"

"I still say that, you are definitely a superstar in the future!"

Zhang Weiping gasped, smiled and said to Kobe

It's not the first time for Kobe to hear that he will become a super star in the future!

But only in Zhang Weiping's eyes saw sincerity and firmness!

Zhang Weiping is absolutely certain that Kobe Bryant will become a superstar, which he is more determined than Jerry West!

Even Jerry West is not sure Kobe will become a superstar in the future

But Zhang Weiping is 100% sure!

And not only Zhang Weiping's firm and sincere eyes, but also Zhang Weiping's ability to train with himself is enough to move Kobe Bryant!

"Zhang, I have to work hard!"

"Only hard training can shorten my growth time. I don't want to have only 12 mobile phone meetings per game next year!" Bryant clenched his fist and said firmly.

Zhang Weiping patted the 18-year-old on the shoulder, "kid, I know you may be dissatisfied with Richard..."

"I've heard about it. In fact, it's not Richard's fault!"

"If you think about his identity, NCAA's most successful young talent coach, who coaches nine talented young people, if you are him, you can hear that the selected young people don't want to play for themselves!"

"What would you do?"

Zhang asked slowly with a smile.

"Zhang, I may not even give him a chance, and just give him up!"

Zhang Weiping was stunned: "you are so extreme. Look, you also said that if you were you, you would just kill that kid..."

Kobe Bryant nodded, this paranoid temperament is innate, he thought carefully, if he was really in Richard's position, the young people he chose refused to play for him

Then he is most likely to let that young life be inferior to death!

Even if we waste our precious draft rights, we will never give that kid any chance!

"But what he said at that time was too much..."

"You don't know the look on his face, God, it's definitely the devil's smile!"

Kobe Bryant now thinks about Richard's expression in that moment, and he can't help fighting a cold war

Zhang Weiping smiled bitterly. During his contact with Richard, he also found this problem!

When Richard laughed normally, he looked very sunny. After all, he was not very old. He was not yet thirty.But at some moments when Richard shouldn't smile, if he smiles, the smile is full of evil, even Zhang Weiping looks scared

For example, in the game where they played warriors in the first game of pre-season, Richard laughed from time to time off the court. Zhang Weiping saw it clearly. He was very clear about what kind of Richard Bryant was facing at that time.

"Richard is a man of ability, Kobe, you remember, there must be something different from ordinary people who have ability..." Zhang Weiping can only explain that.

"By the way, Zhang, I heard that you and Richard have a good relationship and have common friends in China..."

"I'm more curious about why you are all Chinese, but the personality gap is so large. I thought that Chinese people are as easygoing as you, but obviously not..."

Zhang Weiping hesitated for a moment and didn't know how to answer

"Cough, maybe he has not received the education of socialist core values. We are not the same as him..."

……

"Kobe, be smart when shooting on the court. You only have 12 mobile phone meetings. You must cherish them!"

"Zhang, I already treasure enough!"

"No, you don't treasure it enough. In fact, the rule Richard set for you is not without loopholes. Think about it. You don't count the number of shots when you go to the free throw line in the attack round..."

"Boy, you know what I mean..."

"If you want to score more, you have to fight for the chance to get on the free throw line!"

"Next, I'll defend, you attack, let's practice how to make fouls more efficiently!"

Zhang Weiping is almost rested. He stands up with full energy.

Kobe is also full of energy, even if he is only 18 years old now, but he has a special paranoia on scoring. Now he is looking for a way to get more points, and it doesn't violate Richard's shackles. Naturally, Kobe is full of joy.

If Richard knew the rules he had set for Kobe Bryant and Zhang Weiping figured out the loopholes, he would be speechless

However, even if he knew it, Richard must have one eye open and one eye closed!

The purpose of Gasol is not to limit Bryant's score, but to let him cherish the right to release.

Now, under the leadership of Zhang Weiping, Kobe Bryant has a new way. Without increasing the number of shots, he can score more points and improve his foul making ability earlier, which is undoubtedly a good thing.

Richard really has no reason to stop it.
