Chapter 202: Offseason Training Camp (continued)

After a while, the door of the court opened again, and walked into a black strong man with dirty pigtails, many players of the Lakers know, that is, Kwame Brown, who was traded to the Grizzlies in February 08, that is, in the middle of the 07-08 season, but this kid did not get a contract extension from the Grizzlies, the Pistons who joined freely, not in order to get stable playing time in the Pistons, they also had to train hard in the offseason, and Kobe Bryant came to Los Angeles as soon as he called.

Although Kobe's death glare also made him tremble, at least it felt much better than when he was in the Wizards, at least the pressure was not so great!

"Xiangnon, I haven't congratulated you on signing a good contract!"

Farmar said in an envious tone to Shannon Brown, who had just signed a two-year 4.2 million contract.

He can't help but envy, the rookie in 06 is his last year with the Lakers, and the management has no intention of renewing the contract in advance, although his score in this game has declined, but the average performance of 7 points per game, Farmar feels that he should be rewarded with an early contract extension, don't the Lakers plan to keep themselves?

To be honest, the Lakers do think so, if Artest doesn't join, maybe the Lakers will directly use Famar's last year contract in exchange for a trade exception or something this year, Artest is coming, then the Lakers' second team needs a relatively stable point guard, but Famar's performance is not worth the Lakers to renew the contract, and the Lakers also have a little calculation, some guys' contracts are about to expire, and the Lakers are ready to compete.

As soon as Famar mentioned that it didn't matter if he signed a contract, the air suddenly became a little heavier, Powell looked at Huang Yu, who was still exercising, and glared at Famar! Although he is a 10,000-year substitute, he is not afraid of Famar, this year is also his contract year, with his data, the Lakers are destined not to keep him, and it is good to be able to mix a championship in the Lakers.

So he is very casual now! In addition to not daring to scare Kobe, Lao Yu and Gasol, even if Artest comes, he will also do it, in case the Lakers try to trade themselves, they can still brush up some data or something if they go to a bad team!

Shannon Brown and Famar also knew that the topic was a little wrong, because just a few days after the contract renewal of Shannon Brown, Artest and the Lakers came to a signing ceremony, according to Artest's agent Bowman, the contract was not the previous 3-year 18 million but 5-year 33 million.

In the following interview, Kupchak also spoke highly of Artest.

"I think if you see the way he's played over the last few years, you'll think the same way I do, we've all done the wrong things, but if you know what he's done and you can learn from it, I think that's enough."

It seems that Kupchak also feels that it is very worthwhile for Artest's free addition, and a defensive titan who is at his peak can make the Lakers' defense safer in the new season, so he also said some more good things.

And Artai also expressed his joy at the dominance of the Lakers' two interior long-term players (Gasol and Bynum).

"I'm still able to get in front of the attacking players, and I've got a couple of blockers behind me." Artest said. "When you've got two seven-foot guys behind you, and maybe Odom, they're all behind you, and I just have to defend myself."

The heroes of the Lakers' championship last season were basically mentioned, but there was no such thing as Huang Yu, so the media also thought that Artest joined the Lakers, which was the moment when Huang Yu left or was thrown into the cold palace.

At the end of the interview, Atai also expressed his desire for the championship.

"Kobe Bryant has 4 championships, I don't have one, I want to get one, I need 1 championship very badly."

After his words were misinterpreted by the media, he directly gave people the feeling that he could do anything for the championship, and the media was just making it up, and it didn't cost money anyway, so he had freedom of speech! In addition, Artest did not come out to deny it, so that now the Lakers' new season has not started, there are already signs of infighting.

----------

After the warm-up, they caught the right pair for training, Powell's arrival was actually similar to Kwame's sparring partner, but Powell was very happy! It's none of my business to go on vacation or anything, I don't have a commercial contract in the offseason, and I stay at home, so there's no harm in exercising more.

A moment later, a tall white man with a round shot walked in, and if it weren't for the number of appearances he played last season and the number of times he played with him, he would have almost forgotten him.

Adam Morrison, a man who has just recovered from injury, is also known as a man of luck by the media, he is not the same as Shannon and Mbenga, he has almost always guarded the water cooler to win the championship (I won't say who it really is, I know.... )

This guy shaved off his long hair after joining the Lakers and no longer wore high socks to finally fit the spirit of the times, and of course he was less careful with the Bobcats.

"Wow! There were so many people here, I thought it was just the locker room! ”

His words immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Adam, is it another big name?"

Famar couldn't help but ask.

"Tracy McGrady, Artest, Caron Butler, Gasol, Bynum, and even Fisher are here!"

It's better not to listen, Famar decisively rolled out to do his own shooting training, it was too hurtful, from Kwame Brown to Adam Morrison, who just came in, there was at least half an hour in between, they would rather chat than train, it seems that this is the privilege of the big guy!!

Huang Yu didn't have much reaction after listening to it, it seems that today is not only the first day of the training camp organized by Kobe, but also the first distribution of the ball under the Lakers players.

It didn't take long for the door to open at the training ground, and Bryant led a group of people to the sidelines.

"Everyone, focus your attention!"

Lao Yu clapped his hands and shouted, Kobe rarely does this kind of thing, it is all done by Lao Yu, who is the political commissar, of course, he is better at this!

"The one-week training camp has officially started today, everyone's training is different, so the focus is different, but don't worry, see these familiar faces next to me, they will train with you in these 7 days, if you don't understand something, you can ask for advice, but please pick key questions instead of chatting, because everyone's time is very valuable."

Lao Yu is very shameless, he is included, but he can barely be counted, after all, he has a lot of experience in this vacancy.

“HO! ~”

The players present yelled, and Huang Yu also shouted with the crowd, otherwise he would look unsociable, Kobe Bryant's face suddenly looked much better, so he took over the topic of Lao Yu.

"Ron! Lakers' teammates should know that Ron has joined the Lakers, and next season they will be teammates who fight side by side rather than enemies, I hope everyone can accept him faster and help him integrate into the Lakers, so let's train separately! ”

Huang Yu didn't want to figure out if there was anything else in Kobe's words, in case he didn't have himself, he would soon become a villain, so Huang Yu decided to ignore it, Artest didn't provoke himself, and he wouldn't take the initiative to provoke him, but ..... Hey, hey, hey....

----------

After Huang Yu's physical fitness has improved, what he lacks now is defensive experience, for this kind of experience, Kobe's method is very simple and rude, that is, he keeps going one-on-one with Huang Yu, although Huang Yu has a height advantage, but once Kobe's arsenal is opened, Huang Yu can't parry at all, and can only watch Kobe Bryant pass himself as a puppet again and again.

Every time he goes heads-up with a group of balls, Kobe will give Huang Yu a certain amount of time to reflect, and then abuse others, and when Huang Yu thinks about it, continue to go heads-up, if he improves again, then Kobe Bryant will change his attack and abuse Huang Yu again, when Huang Yu can successfully defend him 3 times (heads-up 10 balls in a group), he will teach Huang Yu some of his defensive experience.

The oppressive close defense is very powerful, don't be afraid of fouls if you stick to it, but Huang Yu won't listen to him all, you are a superstar and I'm just a 2-year-old rookie, just your kind of oppressive defense, if ordinary people suffer this kind of defense, they will break through or jump on the spot to make a defensive foul.

"I just know to tell you some experience, and I need you to summarize more! Let's continue heads-up! ”

Kobe Bryant looked at Huang Yu as if he was wandering out of the world, and suddenly felt that he should hone him in heads-up!

In this way, on the first day of training, in addition to warm-up and fixed shooting training, Huang Yu almost went head-to-head with Kobe Bryant from beginning to end!

----------

The next day, Kobe Bryant changed his training method, he attacked Huang Yu 5 times first, to see if Huang Yu's defense improved again, 5 attacks Kobe Bryant played 3 times, and once Huang Yu used a small movement amplitude too much, it doesn't count! This kind of defense has long been blown on the court, and the other time is a clean defense, which was successfully sealed in front of Kobe Bryant's eyes before he shot, but the basketball is still thrown, it is so unreasonable, but Kobe admitted that the luck of the ball just now was good, and Huang Yu successfully defended it once.

So it was Huang Yu's turn to attack, dribbling directly with his back to Kobe, Huang Yu had also fought with Kobe Bryant in the past, but this time he felt a little creepy, and suddenly Huang Yu found that when Kobe Bryant was in the opposite position with himself before, the defense was all joking.

The fingers on his waist are not idle, and the huge force constantly pushes himself from the free throw line to near the three-point line, as long as Huang Yu dribbles, twists, pulls, and pinchs, his rhythm will be destroyed, and most of the strength gathered by his body will disappear.

And when Huang Yu turned around to jump, he was just about to jump up when he felt that Kobe's hand was exerting force again, and he jumped directly and the rhythm was chaotic at the same time.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Although Huang Yu's mid-range shot is not to say that he has 100 shots, but with the skill bonus, he has never seen 3 consecutive balls hit iron.

"Bang!"

The fourth goal was still iron.

"You were lucky last season that you didn't meet a few guys who were very good defensively, otherwise your stats wouldn't be so good! At least the shooting percentage won't look good. ”

Kobe Bryant's words made Huang Yu speechless, his performance on the offensive end last season made a lot of mistakes on the defensive end have been covered up, and he has not encountered a star with strong breakthrough ability, otherwise his defense is easy to be beaten into a sieve.

----------

was beaten by Kobe for a week, although he could only prevent 2 or even 1 of 5 balls when defending Kobe, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Kobe's offense was getting more and more serious.

Huang Yu also asked Kobe Bryant why he didn't use those obscure small moves to defend himself during the original tryout.

Kobe's words suddenly made Huang Yu obediently depressed on the side for a long time.

In his words, "A rookie still expects me to use all my strength? I'm only using five layers of work now! ”

So after the training, Huang Yu decisively found Kobe's defensive video, starting from his rookie video, Kobe Bryant in his rookie period relied on stickiness enough, constantly putting pressure on the offensive side, and according to some forums, the Lakers were more optimistic about Eddie Jones and Kobe Bryant at the beginning, but finally chose Kobe Bryant because his defense was better than Eddie Jones.

Everyone was not okay for the whole offseason, and soon the training team was disbanded, but Huang Yu found a training gym to prepare to continue training by himself, he didn't need to find a trainer, he just needed some good quality players to assist in training.

So Kwame Brown and Powell and Xiangnong Brown, who didn't leave, were left behind by Huang Yu, and Adam Morrison didn't come because he felt unwell on the second day of the training camp! Although there are only three people, Huang Yu is not discouraged, it is enough!

With the help of the system, after starting training every day, the three of them quickly entered the state, and the system affected their brain waves, of course, there would be no harm, it just made their reactions more suitable for training, otherwise with their state Huang Yu didn't want to refine the breakthrough.

----------

That's right, Huang Yu is practicing breakthroughs, and he is likely to be targeted in the new season, and if he can't break through with the ball, it will inevitably reduce the scoring efficiency, and although the position of the new season has not been decided, Huang Yu is likely to move to the No. 2 position to Kobe as a substitute, so the ability to break through with the ball must be improved, otherwise he is not even a 3D player, and it is easy to be traded by the Lakers in the middle of the season.

Can't prevent the opponent from scoring points, their offense is frozen, the Lakers have no reason to keep themselves, if they want to not leave Los Angeles, they have to work hard to develop themselves, although the defense has improved, but it can only be said to be qualified, and the offensive shooting is even if it is giving Huang Yu a chance, the potential for temporary improvement will not be too great, so it is necessary to be surprised.

With the help of the three of them, although Huang Yu stumbled when catching the ball and breaking through, at least he would not make low-level mistakes, such as dribbling the ball on his feet, or the ball would get out of his hands when he made movements.

Although the three of them have been cooperating with Huang Yu, they have also improved, just like Kwamei, Huang Yu's object of every breakthrough is him, with the system in his reflection faster, coupled with his excellent physical fitness and defensive experience, it is a very good sparring partner for beginners to break through, continuous training has made his reaction speed gradually faster, at least Huang Yu to the later stage, although the breakthrough ability has improved, but sometimes he is still successfully blocked or forced to walk.

And Powell is making rapid progress, he constantly blocks Huang Yu in training, Huang Yu sometimes can't break through, he will play a small cooperation with him, and even the tacit understanding of the individual has increased significantly, and sometimes he will attract Kwamei's defensive magic pass to Huang Yu.
