Faced with Kobe's request to fight again, Yi Feng was stunned.

"I'll admit that I didn't win well enough to get away with it. When it comes to real strength, I'm really inferior to you, Kobe. ”

"No," Bryant shook his head, "there's no sneak attack on basketball court lessons, and trash talk is an offensive weapon." If I'm to blame, blame myself for my lack of concentration. ”

"Moreover, you don't have to be modest, your strength is no less than mine now. And you have such an excellent learning ability, it is not impossible for you to surpass me at my peak in strength over time. ”

"Don't get me wrong, I'm asking for another game, it's not that I want to play tricks and not admit my defeat. It's that I just want to fight you, you know, I really enjoy the confrontation with the strong! ”

Yi Feng suddenly said, "In that case, why are we just playing one more game?" I also like it very much against the strong! And I can learn so much more from the fight! ”

"Hahahaha-"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

The two-man bullfight begins again.

Yi Feng continued to learn from Kobe Bryant's experience and put it into practice on the spot. The feints are becoming more and more proficient, and the rhythm changes are getting better and better. But Bryant was better in this regard, and after the two sides exchanged the ball several times, Bryant won the second game of the bullfight 5:4.

Next, the third game of the bullfight began, and Yi Feng won 5:4.

Then there was the fourth and fifth innings......

In the end, it was not until the ninth game that the confrontation between the two finally came to an end.

Yi Feng won the bullfight with a total score of 5:4.

The number of bullfighting rounds between the two is very interesting, Yi Feng won one game first, and then Kobe Bryant immediately won one game with color. In the end, the cycle went on and on until the ninth inning, so that Yi Feng won the odd innings 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9, and Kobe Bryant won the even-numbered 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th innings.

In the last game, Kobe Bryant's shooting rate was greatly affected due to the decline in physical strength, and Yi Feng won easily 5:1 with the infinite vitality of young people.

Randall and Clarkson had stunned expressions on their faces until the end of the final bullfight.

After Yi Feng defeated Kobe Bryant by a slight margin, they looked at Yi Feng as if they were looking at an alien. The two of them, who are usually extremely active, were speechless at this time, and you can imagine the shock in their hearts.

Eventually, the silence was broken by Kobe, "Hey, guys! That's the end of the training time, and now it's time for happytime! Let's go, I'm in for a treat today! ”

The other five people in the training hall, along with Yi Feng and Zhou Mu, were all invited.

After a simple shower, Yi Feng got into Kobe's Lamborghini sports car. Zhou Mu got into Taylor's car, and Randall and Clarkson both had their own cars.

Perhaps because heroes cherish heroes, Yi Feng and Kobe Bryant unexpectedly fit well.

Neither of them is the kind of person who talks a lot in life, especially with strangers. But the two people who just met today have been chatting in the car, changing various topics.

Randall and Clarkson were excited, singing as they drove. Because they feel that the team boss will take him to a certain high-level club, and that level of clubhouse is a level that a rookie like them can't reach.

That's real high society!

It's already high when you think about it!

But unexpectedly, Kobe Bryant actually took them to a famous restaurant in Los Angeles, Mastro's Steakhouse.

Mastro's Steakhous is a steakhouse opened in Los Angeles by Mastro's Restaurant, an American high-end restaurant chain and consumer group. The restaurant is famous for its steaks and seafood dishes, and is one of the restaurants frequented by many Hollywood stars.

The restaurant has also been voted one of the top 10 steakhouses in the U.S. several times, and has been hailed locally as a model of classic steakhouses.

The two rookies were disappointed.

While the restaurant is indeed upscale, it's not the kind of happy clubhouse they imagined.

It's just to come over for a meal, boss, what are you talking about happytime? Are you playing with us?

When they saw Yi Feng and Kobe Bryant talking happily, their eyes were even more resentful......

After the meal, Yi Feng refused Kobe's invitation to come to his house as a guest, and also politely refused Kobe's proposal to send him on the plane, and rushed to the airport with Zhou Mu in a taxi, and he also rushed to the Orlando Magic team for a trial.

――――――

Just after Yi Feng and Zhou Mugang got into a taxi and left, Kobe Bryant immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed the general manager of the Lakers.

"Mitch, I'm Kobe. I have a piece of advice about this year's draft......"

Kobe Bryant is a veteran of the league, full of glory. And all his honors were won as a Lakers player. He has been fighting for many years, even if his strength is declining now, his status in the league is still very high, let alone in the Lakers.

He already has the right to advise on the team's draft. It's just that he cherishes his reputation too much and doesn't interfere with the team's decisions at will. Because Jordan misselected Kwame Brown, this lesson is in front of him.

He knew that he was not a professional scout after all, and he would definitely not be able to compete as a scout when it came to watching the draft.

However, this time is different.

With the full recommendation of top scout Giles Taylor as a friend, coupled with his own personal test, Kobe Bryant has a deep understanding of Yi Feng's instant combat power and talent.

He deeply understood how terrifying Yi Feng's potential was.

In addition, in the short time they got along, Kobe Bryant had a very good impression of Yi Feng.

So, no matter what, he didn't want to miss Yi Feng.

"So, you mean that Chinese rookie is our first choice, right? No matter what sign we draw, even if it's the champion lot? ”

Kupchak's voice came from the phonephone's microphone.

"Yes," Kobe Bryant was adamant about his thoughts, "even if we are lucky enough to draw the No. 1 pick, I would suggest that the team choose Yi instead of choosing a big man like Towns or Okafor." ”

Kupchak was curious, "What is it that makes you so confident in that Chinese rookie?" At the beginning, we also selected a Chinese defender, and as you know, he didn't contribute anything, and he took a championship ring from us for nothing. ”

"Even with such a lesson, do you still insist on choosing him?"

Bryant was silent.

He knows that it is impossible for Kupchak not to pay attention to Yi Feng, the hottest Yi Feng in basketball recently, who is just a rookie Yi Feng, who has stolen the limelight from so many All-Stars who are still passionate in the playoffs.

Since he knows some news about Yi Feng, but still compares him with the Chinese guard selected by the Lakers before, then Kupchak's meaning is obvious: he doesn't agree with Kobe's idea and doesn't want to use Yi Feng as the Lakers' first choice.

If the Lakers are lucky enough to draw the top pick, it is even less likely that they will choose Yi Feng. The talented Karl Anthony Towns has already proven himself in the NCAA, and the well-rounded Jahill Okafor is also a very good potential stock and can bring a strong instant force.

If the Lakers have a first-round pick, they are the right and natural choice.

Obviously, this time the proposal was not successful. But Kobe Bryant won't give up, and he doesn't give up in the dictionary. Although it is now conceivable, it will not be easy to get Lakers management to accept his proposal.

Giles Taylor was right next to Kobe Bryant, and he heard Kupchak's conversation with Kobe very clear.

This was what he expected.

Because he had already submitted a report to the Lakers before, suggesting that Yi Feng be the team's first choice. However, this report is like a mud cow entering the sea, and there is no news from it.

Obviously, Lakers management had their own ideas and didn't listen to Taylor's advice.

It is the responsibility of the team's scouts to recommend the most suitable players and the most talented players for the team. As a dedicated scout, Giles Taylor doesn't set out to give up.

So he found Kobe, the man with a special status with the Lakers.

However, what Taylor didn't expect was that even Kobe Bryant couldn't get the management to change his original intentions.

"Alas, I didn't expect Mickey to be so insistent this time, and they didn't listen to our advice at all. Even Kobe Bryant, you couldn't move them. ”

Taylor sighed and shook his head.

"It's impossible for Mickey not to know that Yi has real strength. And this strength, among the rookies of this year, is the top. But knowing that he knows, he doesn't believe that Yi can maintain this strength for a long time. At the end of the day, it's still biased. ”

Bryant was both helpless and angry.

Taylor sighed again and didn't speak again.

"I'm not going to give up just like that, Mickey, I'm going to go myself. If you can't convince him, look for Jim Buss (Lakers owner and executive vice president). As a team owner, he can always speak accurately, right? ”

Kobe Bryant's personality is the most paranoid, even paranoid to the point of madness. In order to win, he developed a non-human "666" training method - 6 days a week, 6 hours a day, 6 stages of "devil training" each time. Ordinary people practice like him, and they have long since abolished their training. But Kobe Bryant was exceptionally talented in this area and persevered. A large amount of training has also made Kobe Bryant the first person in the league for a long time.

Paranoia, that is, attachment that is too one-sided.

Kobe Bryant decided on one thing, and he didn't care about right or wrong, and he was paranoid about doing it. Now that he is determined to bring Yi Feng to the Lakers, he must convince the Lakers' management.

No matter what the cost, it will not be spared.

"Isn't that good, Kobe? If he had just skipped Mitch and gone to Mr. Buss, what would Mitch think as the team's general manager? And you are just a player of the team, but you directly give advice to the president, what will the president think? ”

Taylor looked a little worried.

Bryant said, "Giles, you don't have to worry about that. I'm an old man of the Lakers, even Jerry Buss (the former president and owner of the Lakers, who brought the Lakers to glory) would consider my advice, let alone Jerry Buss's son. ”

"And there are a lot of great managers in the league, but how many Kobe Bryants have?"
