Los Angeles, although this is not Link's home stadium, Link is not a stranger to it.

After all, he's been sweating it out in Los Angeles for two summers in a row.

At this time, Link was having dinner in the restaurant with the Kobe family. Link was very excited after training today, and he talked a lot. Not only with Kobe, but also with Vanessa and Kobe's two daughters, they also had a cheerful chat.

It can be seen that Link is in a very good mood. Although the reason for his happiness seemed to others to be fascinating, Link did not suppress his happiness at all.

"Link, have you been training like this all summer?" While eating, Kobe Bryant turned the topic to basketball again.

In this regard, sister-in-law Vanessa has become accustomed to it. Kobe Bryant is such a person, his mind is on the basketball court all the time. Maybe only on the day he retires will he put down the basketball.

"Hmm......" Link thought seriously, except for the month after the season, Link did seem to be training like crazy...... It was training camp first, and Link didn't relax after the training camp ended. Wherever you go, you'll be holding a basketball.

Until now, the pre-season training camp for the new season is about to start, and Link has no intention of stopping.

"Well, if you only train for a month in pre-season training camp, I don't think it's enough." Link spread his hands, training was not painful for him, because his training progress could be quantified by the little white bar.

For most people, no, I should say for everyone other than Link, it's all unknown whether or not their training will work, and how effective it will be.

Every summer, there are countless stars who spend a lot of money to train at Olajuwon's training camp, but only a handful of them can actually learn. James once shot tens of thousands of shots in one summer, but his shooting ability was still not consistent.

Even so, people are still happy to participate in various training camps just to make a chance to improve.

Link doesn't have such a risk, he can clearly see the changes in the progress bar, and as long as he trains, he can make 100% progress.

Ordinary people can't get timely feedback on their training, or even no feedback at all. So for them, training is a painful thing.

But Link gets intuitive feedback after every training session. In such a situation, Link is naturally more obsessed with training than others.

"Sure enough, it didn't stop all summer......" Kobe smiled, he did the same when he was younger.

"But the wear and tear on your body when you train like this is huge. I know you want to be stronger, but you still have to be careful with your body, which is the foundation of everything. "This Achilles tendon rupture is still a very huge blow to Kobe.

At the same time, it also made him cherish his body more. The human body is fragile, and after an injury, no matter how bad you were before, you have to lie down.

Link has just won the championship and is gaining momentum. Kobe didn't want Link to fall off the altar because of an unexpected injury.

As a friend, he didn't want to see Link like that.

"Link, I'll give you a phone number. This is a call from my former physical therapist who has been working for the Lakers since the '90s. However, she left the team last year due to family reasons, and I don't know if she would like to return to the NBA now. If your body is under this high load all the time, you need a high-level physiotherapist there to help you recover. ”

Bryant said, sending the phone number to Link's phone. Link was a little flattered, and he never knew that Kobe Bryant was paranoid, ruthless, and hardworking. But for the first time, Link saw Kobe's warm side.

"If I had to rate her, she's the best physiotherapist in the world, hahaha! You know, I have a lot of business activities every summer. Asia, Europe, Americas...... Almost all over the world runs. But wherever I go, I'll take her with me. So when the new season starts, I'm full of energy. By the way, I almost forgot to mention it. She, like you, is also of Chinese descent. ”

"Oh?" At first, Link didn't feel much about the physiotherapist. But I heard that he is also Chinese? Link was instantly interested.

In the NBA, there are few Chinese players, and Chinese staff are also scarce.

A top Chinese physiotherapist? The more Link listened, the more mysterious he felt.

Beautiful Chinese physiotherapist? A Chinese doctor hidden in the crowd? No, how is it possible, how can this kind of third-rate scenario happen in real life.

"What's her name?" Link then cautiously asked, realizing that he didn't know anything about the physiotherapist.

"Her name is Judy. Seto, I'll tell her in advance later, and tell him how you're doing. If it weren't for the Lakers' new physiotherapist candidates, I wouldn't have casually recommended her to others. Bryant winked at Link, as if he had given Link a secret weapon.

※※※

When Link returned to his dorm, he immediately searched for Judy. The name Seto.

To Link's surprise, there was a lot of information about her on the search engine. Being so famous as a physiotherapist is a testament to her level.

Judy. Seto is indeed not a beautiful Chinese physiotherapist, she is middle-aged, and her appearance is not good. To put it more bluntly, it is no different from ordinary aunts on the streets of China.

But Seto's resume is the opposite of her ordinary appearance.

Earlier in her career, she studied human physics and sports psychology at UCLA, and later went on to earn a master's degree in physical therapy at Stanford University and a doctorate in physical therapy from Temple University. In addition to this, Judy. Seto is also licensed in sports clinical medicine, surgical plastic medicine and strength fitness medicine.

There is no doubt that Judy is definitely a top student in sports medicine. Not to mention anything else, in terms of her basic theoretical knowledge, she must have overshadowed many people.

Of course, Seto's ability and results in practice are no less bad.

As Bryant said, Seto was already a physical therapist for the Lakers in the 90s. Since 2000, he has been in charge of Kobe's physical therapy and has been promoted to the Lakers' chief physical therapist.

In many of Kobe's photos, even the photos smiling at the championship, there will be a seemingly inconspicuous middle-aged Chinese woman. It turned out that it wasn't a fan, it was Judy. Seto! She was by Kobe's side almost all the time, in Kobe's illustrious history. She was dubbed "the secret weapon of the Lakers dynasty" by the media. Some fans also joked that she was the woman behind the successful man. Because she has been with Kobe Bryant for more time than Vanessa.

After reading all the news about Seto on the Internet, Link can't wait to work with Seto. Although the other party is not a beautiful Chinese, nor is he a master of seclusion. But when it comes to sports medicine, she is indeed the most specialty.

Physiotherapy is a very important recuperation and injury prevention measure for a player's body. It's certainly not 100 per cent away from injury, but it's definitely better than nothing.

Link saw that it was not too early, and was afraid of disturbing people's rest, so he decided to call again the next day. But Link didn't expect that he would be the first to receive the call.

"Hey, is it Mr. Lin? It's Kobe. Mr. Bryant gave me this call. ”

As soon as the phone was connected, Link heard the friendly Chinese.

The protective shield behind Link's hard work next season seems to have been woven in advance.

Two days later, less than two weeks before the start of training camp for the new NBA season, the Grizzlies officially released a piece of news that seemed unappealing to outsiders, but meant a lot to Link.

"The Memphis Grizzlies have officially hired former Lakers physiotherapist Judy. Seto is the chief physical therapist, and after Kobe, she will escort Link's health. ”

Everything is ready for the new season to begin!
