This moment of loss of consciousness is accompanied by heartache.

Deng Hongfei's mind flashed back to the scene when he first got the pair of weights.

On the sickbed, her beloved grandmother trembled with her skinny hands with needles inserted into them, and with a smile she stuffed the hand-sewn weight into the hands of Deng Hongfei, who was only 13 years old at the time.

The love in those kind, cloudy eyes.

It is a memory that Deng Hongfei can never erase.

It is also his last memory of his grandmother before her death, and removing the word "before her death" is in the cold coffin, a group of people are in the Anle Hall, hanging their heads around her.

The past is so real.

Reggie Miller's unintentional kick was actually kicking Deng Hongfei's heart fiercely, kicking in the memory of this remembrance.

The old man's last gift to himself carries infinite hope and love.

"Nope."

Deng Hongfei's mood fluctuated violently, and he rushed over quickly, picked up the sandbag and cherished it in his arms.

He wanted to yell at Reggie Miller, but the latter didn't know anything, and he knew that the other party was unintentional.

"Oh, if that weight bearing means anything special to you, then I apologize to you."

But old Miller has lived for so many years, no one has seen him, and he has already developed a bunch of fiery eyes, and he can see Deng Hongfei's emotions that are involuntarily spreading outward at this moment.

He shrugged his shoulders, his voice still cold, "But I also want to remind you that the essence of a cold-blooded killer is that once he walks on the court, there will only be four words in his mind, and that is 'kill the other party', no matter what grief and blow his world has experienced before this, you have to learn and leave it behind!" Erase! Then focus on it and let the blood become cold and ruthless! ”

"Got it!"

"Just because of my action that makes you react so much, then in the future you will go on the NBA court and experience more blows! With more ups and downs, what kind of fluctuations will your mindset produce? ”

Reggie Miller took a deep breath and softened his tone slightly, "Tell me, what should you do now!" ”

Deng Hongfei seemed to be woken up by a basin of cold water, he slowly turned around, gently put the sandbag in his hand on the ground, and then stepped on the field again.

In the world of competitive sports, there are only winners and losers, cold and ruthless.

He understands very well that Reggie Miller is teaching him a mentality, a killer mentality!

——

In the following days, Deng Hongfei was in high-intensity off-ball training.

Running, lots of sprints became his major subjects.

Even said that Reggie Miller personally designed a lot of possible situations on the court for him at night, so that Brandon Roy could find someone to cooperate, and let Deng Hongfei run for various situations, and then shoot!

In the training king system, Deng Hongfei clearly saw that his strength value began to fluctuate.

This is because muscles break down during high-intensity aerobic exercise, and even supplements that prevent muscle breakdown are difficult to stop.

His body fat also began to decline.

And the ability values of the speed, medium and long-range throws, began to slowly increase.

It's just that the progress on the ballless end can be said to be changing with each passing day.

In the confrontation game, Deng Hongfei began to discover the beauty of running without the ball.

Different from the kind of ball-holding attack that holds the ball by yourself and solves the problem by yourself, without the ball requires more brains and analysis.

A good knee-jerk reaction is formed in a lot of training.

By watching the off-ball running instructional video provided by Reggie Miller after the game, Deng Hongfei also kept summarizing where he could better improve.

As for the daily diet, the coaching staff deliberately added butter, cheese and other foods to him to maintain the body fat percentage and avoid the body fat falling to the freezing point and the potential for injury.

A week later, Reggie Miller left the Alaska Aviation Arena.

When he left, he left Deng Hongfei with a piece of paper, which read, "The true nature of the killer." ”

In the power room, Deng Hongfei looked at this note, recalling Reggie Miller's cold eyes, and he began to feel that there seemed to be a special human touch behind this coldness.

Roy patted him on the shoulder, "Miller told me that your training attitude is very good, especially for strength training, more diligent than many players, continue to keep it up, find the best way to play for yourself, and I believe that you will definitely get a place in the league in the future." ”

"Well, Mr. Brandon, thank you."

Deng Hongfei nodded his head heavily.

"Thank you, I also came from you like this, I can't hide it, I can always see my own shadow in you, and I can kill you after being seriously injured, and I am willing to do my best to pull you." Roy waved his hand haughtily and asked, "How's it going, did you get an individual tryout invitation from the team?" ”

"Ha, it seems that there are only two teams at the moment: the Lakers and the Spurs."

Deng Hongfei touched his nose and said a little embarrassed.

"Well, it's good if someone sends you an invitation for a separate tryout, stabilize your mentality, don't mess around, even if you start low, as long as you have the strength, you can always seize the opportunity."

"Wait for your chance, train hard."

Roy clenched his fists and gave him some encouragement, then turned to leave......

A few days later.

On June 1, 2013, Deng Hongfei landed in Los Angeles.

Toyota Sports Center.

This is the training venue of the Los Angeles Lakers, and Deng Hongfei walked into it with a large shoulder bag on his back.

In the venue, there are many people.

"Hello, Chris Deng."

An old white man with a gray beard greeted him, "Arrived?" Let's go change and get ready to play. ”

He pointed to the players on the pitch who were scouting, "You're going to join them." ”

"Okay."

Deng Hongfei nodded and immediately came to the locker room.

For the Lakers, he has mixed feelings.

Growing up watching Kobe Bryant play, he has a longing for this place that has been rooted in his heart since he was a child.

It's just that the Los Angeles Lakers at this moment seem to be clouded with thick clouds.

On April 13, 2013, during a game against the Golden State Warriors, superstar Kobe Bryant ruptured his Achilles tendon.

This is like a bolt from the blue for all the honey in the lake.

It is also a heavy blow to the Los Angeles Lakers, a purple and gold division that has carried countless glory.

The Lakers, who had a luxurious F4 season in the 12-13 season, also fell apart after losing the first round of the playoffs.

Because of Kobe's injury, the giants began to decline!

So Deng Hongfei came here, and he also hoped to join here, just like Kobe Bryant did at the beginning, to write his own colorful movement in this legendary giant.

Change your clothes and walk out onto the pitch.

The Lakers' training team immediately beckoned him to an empty court where no one was training.

Before that, Deng Hongfei looked around, and sure enough, he saw Lakers head coach Mike D'Antoni in the stands on one side.

This old man, who has always been known for his mustache, is known for his bombardment tactics.

After being hired to the Lakers last season, he did not lead the luxury F4 to the expected results.

I believe that this season, he should make some changes.

Deng Hongfei didn't have too many ideas, he just wanted to play at the level he should have in the next tryout.
