"At least wait until you're a starter to think about it." Wang Cheng still didn't reply, and continued to train after a short rest.

In addition to eating a nutritious meal halfway, Wang Cheng spent almost the whole day in the training hall.

"Ding, in today's training, the host ran a total of 12w3000 meters and received $1,230, and hit 1,000 three-point shots and received $1,000...... Get a total of $1W. ”

"Hint, adding confrontation in training or getting guidance from a master can increase the exchange ratio."

After hearing the system prompt, Wang Cheng was a little depressed.

After a day of hard training and 1w dollars, the efficiency is really not high.

"It doesn't seem to be going to work behind closed doors."

After finishing the high-intensity training, after returning home, Wang Cheng, who was full of exhaustion, washed up early and went to sleep.

The next day's life was still the same, the only difference was that Wang Cheng went to a small Italian restaurant and determined the time and place with Kobe.

That's a big deal!

Maybe the question of self-training can be answered by Kobe.

······

Fast forward to a week later, and Wang Cheng had been training alone for eight days.

Today is the day of dinner with Kobe, and there is still an hour before the scheduled six o'clock in the evening to the restaurant.

Wang Cheng finished his training early, changed into a suit, and took a taxi to the restaurant.

At half past five, Wang Cheng arrived at the restaurant.

"Sir, how many?"

"Two of you, I have an appointment, table 13."

"Okay, this way, please."

Wang Cheng followed the waiter all the way forward, and halfway through, he suddenly found a familiar figure in front of him.

Bryant!

To be exact, a dagger.

This slightly blessed man is the legendary star who kept him in front of the TV in his previous life.

Seeing the arrival of Wang Cheng, Kobe stood up, smiled and stretched out his hand, and had a black greeting with Wang Cheng - "hitting his chest".

“hey b

O, it's early. Bryant laughed.

"Ah, am I mistimed, I remember it was six." Wang Cheng was a little messy for a while.

Didn't you arrive half an hour early? Why does it seem to make the big guy wait for a long time.

"Don't be nervous, it's about six o'clock, and I can't wait to come first when I'm hungry." Bryant laughed and joked.

Wang Cheng was speechless for a while, and he guessed that Kobe Bryant should have brought the habit of coming to the field early in the previous training to his life. Wang Cheng remembers that he watched an interview in his previous life, and Kobe's former teammate John once broke the news that Kobe Bryant would always be the first person to arrive at training camp.

The two quickly sat down and ordered some steak and pasta.

Wang Cheng was still a little restrained, but Kobe Bryant opened his mouth first.

"I checked your information before I came, what did you say when you were in college... The defense was good, but by no means at the current level. It's true that you didn't achieve much on the offensive end, but judging from the video, your fundamentals are pretty good, much better than your crappy dribbling and passing in the summer league. Kobe Bryant said with a puzzled expression.

"It's... It could be... Maybe it's because after losing the draft, I put all my energy into practicing defense, plus I was nervous about playing in a professional league for the first time. Wang Cheng replied hesitantly.

To be honest, Kobe Bryant deliberately did his homework before he saw him, which Wang Cheng didn't expect.

"It's you, Bi!" Wang Cheng silently nodded in his heart.

Kobe Bryant shook his head when he heard Wang Cheng's answer, this answer seemed to make some sense, but he always felt that something was wrong. Even if you only practice defending once a month and never touch the ball, it is impossible for the ball control level to drop so much!

Seeing that Kobe Bryant was still frowning, Wang Cheng hurriedly added: "But I have recently picked up my dribbling skills, and after special training, I am much stronger than before." ”

"Oh?" Kobe Bryant is still puzzled, after all, there is such a thing as ball sensation that accumulates over time.

He has been in the world for more than 20 years, and he has seen countless players, from entering the league to retiring. Maddie is the only one who can practice the ball from ordinary to superb.

"I'm telling the truth. If you have the chance, please correct me. Wang Cheng doesn't want to make unnecessary explanations, it's easier to use basketball to speak.

"That's fine, I hope you're not a big talker." Bryant said seriously, "Your defense did make my eyes shine, though. Even in the NBA, you can be ranked high. ”

"I've been honing my defense, and when I was a kid to see you already carrying the banner on the offensive end, but still working the defensive end, it touched me very much, and I wanted to be a ball player who can play both offense and defense.

Maybe I don't have that much talent, so I want to start out in defense and keep improving. ”

Wang Cheng's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he attributed the defensive ability given by the system to his "hard practice".

Hearing Wang Cheng say so sincerely, Kobe Bryant couldn't help but show appreciative eyes.

"It's still my fan, and it seems that this is the successor of my "Mamba spirit" again. Kobe Bryant thought to himself.

"I heard Pelinka say that she was going to sign you on a short-term contract." Bryant continued.

"It's my dream to wear the Lakers' purple and gold jersey. If I could, I'd love to do something big with the Lakers. Wang Cheng made no secret of his ambitions.

When Kobe Bryant heard this, his smile was even bigger.

His 22-year career has been at Staples from the beginning, and naturally hopes to have a back to bear his flag.

"But I seem to have hit a bottleneck lately."

Seeing that Kobe Bryant was in a good mood, Wang Cheng immediately saw the stitches and put forward the most important topic of the day.

"Oh? Listen, maybe I can help you. Kobe Bryant said cheerfully.

"I've been training on my own lately, practicing for about 10 hours a day, but after a few days, I don't feel like I've made much progress and it's not working." Wang Cheng said truthfully.

"Do you want me to train you, Huaxia boy, then you will become my disciple." Kobe Bryant looked directly into Wang Cheng's eyes and said seriously.

Wang Cheng didn't expect Kobe to offer to help him train, and he also wanted to accept himself as a disciple.

In his previous life, those who regarded themselves as Kobe's protégés were all first-class stars, such as Alphabet Song, Owen, George, etc.

"If there is such an honor, I will do my best." Wang Cheng said firmly.

"Very good, then we'll see you at the stadium at three o'clock the day after tomorrow." Kobe Bryant was resolute and immediately set a specific time.

"No problem, but is it three in the afternoon or three in the morning?" Wang Cheng asked a somewhat inexplicable question.
