Chapter 107: Kobe Bryant VS Wade
In the afternoon, Sun Zhuo took Wade to the Los Angeles Lakers' training hall, for which Wade also wore a Lakers No. 8 Kobe Bryant jersey, and he joked that he was afraid of being blasted out by Kobe.
Wade feels weird wearing the Lakers' golden yellow jersey, Sun Zhuo has never seen him wear a jersey of this color, the jersey during the Heat period is basically white, red and black, and the Bulls jersey is also white and red, the jersey at Marquette University is a bit similar to the current Pacers' jersey, and there is no yellow, Wade doesn't look like a Lakers player no matter how he looks at it.
After entering the court, Sun Zhuo took Wade to greet everyone: "I brought a friend over, Dwyane Wade of the Heat, you should know him." ”
Wade shyly faced the Lakers, feeling that everyone in front of him, not only O'Neal, Kobe, Karl Malone, Payton and other veterans, but even the rookie Wharton looked very majestic, Wade smiled shyly: "Hello everyone, I'm here to visit and learn, if there is any inconvenience, Coach Phil, I can leave at any time." ”
Phil Jackson also paid attention to the young man in front of him, and admired Wade's skills very much, not to mention that he was also a friend of Sun Zhuo, Phil smiled: "We don't have any tactical secrets to talk about, we will meditate together later, you can do anything here at will, but I guess Pat Riley must not know that you are here." ”
Everyone else laughed, they all knew that Pat Riley was a very strict and old-school guy, he always didn't like his players to have too close contact with opponents in private, once when Riley was coaching the New York Knicks, the Knicks had a friend who had a very good relationship with Jordan, called Oakley, Jordan wanted to ask Oakley to have dinner with him, but Riley didn't allow it, Ewing of the Knicks was about the same age as Jordan, and Jordan wanted to be friends with him, but it was because of Riley's relationship, Jordan couldn't meet or eat with Ewing in private.
"Hey, the kid in my jersey, come and go head-to-head with me." As soon as Kobe Bryant saw Wade wearing his jersey, he immediately hooked his hand at Wade.
Kobe Bryant has always wanted to find Sun Zhuo to fight alone, but Sun Zhuo refused, at first Kobe Bryant thought that Sun Zhuo was afraid of him, and later learned that Sun Zhuo had been hiding his strength, if he wanted to win Kobe, he would inevitably expose these hidden abilities, Sun Zhuo naturally didn't want to, but he didn't want to lose to Kobe, so Kobe thought that Sun Zhuo would not agree to his challenge in a short time.
However, Wade is different.
Kobe Bryant also played against Wade, in Kobe's heart, in terms of the current strength of Wade and Sun Zhuo, Wade is stronger than Sun Zhuo, and much stronger.
"Oh, no, I'm just here to see how you guys prepare for the finals." Wade shirked it, although he also wanted to go head-to-head with Kobe, Wade likes to watch Kobe play, and can be counted as a fan of Kobe, but his idol is still the absolute Michael Jordan, but Kobe has been provoking Jordan's authority, which no Joe fan can see.
Kobe's first sentence when he saw Jordan was that I will blow you up one-on-one, which is extremely disrespectful in Wade's opinion.
"Hey, maybe you're already the boss in Miami, but in this arena, I'm in charge." Bryant immediately threw the ball to Wade, who couldn't wait because he knew Wade was definitely a good opponent.
"Okay." Wade is not a coward, this is a good guy who once broke the bridge of Kobe's nose......
So, as soon as Sun Zhuogang came to the training ground, he saw Kobe Bryant VS Wade, who was looking forward to two lives.
Kobe Bryant's offensive skills are now perfect, and Wade is still a little immature, and his self-confidence is a little worse, but one-on-one, Wade's explosiveness, speed, and defense are really not weaker than Kobe.
Kobe Bryant just started to face Wade, using all kinds of dazzling skills to score, a bit of bullying young Wade, but Wade quickly became serious, his defense was very good, Kobe broke through, Wade directly reached out and cut off, Kobe made a layup, Wade could even cap Kobe's ball!
"Wow, D-WADE, this kid can, one-on-one can play like Kobe Bryant, there are few people in this world." Seeing this, O'Neill couldn't help but look at Wade with admiration.
Karl Malone even whispered: "You say, in a few years, will this kid replace Kobe Bryant as the league's No. 1 quarterback?" ”
O'Neal kept nodding in approval, and even Phil Jackson couldn't help but sigh: "Riley, you really picked up a treasure, there is such a character, in two years, the Heat will become a team competing for the championship, when the time comes, will you come back to coaching?" Will you want to fight me again? I'm looking forward to it. ”
On the half, Kobe and Wade fought more and more, and after the real one-on-one battle, Kobe knew that Wade was far stronger than he imagined, and he had fought several times in the game before, but it was not a real competition, and Wade did not play his strongest side in the game.
"This guy is indeed very strong, no wonder Sun admires him so much, Sun's vision is really okay." Kobe Bryant also found out that Wade's toughness and strength were different from other players after he played against Wade, but Sun Zhuo had already seen it.
After fighting for a while, Phil stepped forward and stopped: "Okay, Kobe, Dwyane is a guest, don't keep embarrassing him, let's meditate together, Dwyan, if you are interested, you can also join." ”
"What? Meditation? All right. Wade wiped his sweat, one-on-one with Kobe Bryant is really a huge physical and mental drain, but it is a kind of growth for him.
Hearing what Phil Jackson said about meditation, Wade felt quite fresh, because he had never experienced this in the Heat, and he didn't expect that at the beginning of the Finals, the Zen master would not let the whole team train, but did these strange things.
Sun Zhuo saw Wade's curiosity and explained to Wade: "Phil often makes these things, and this is what makes him different. ”
In fact, there is a reason why Phil Jackson chose to take everyone to meditate at this time, and now that the Lakers have just won the Western Conference championship, they can easily take revenge on their old rival Spurs and sweep the first Timberwolves in the West.
The most important point is that Kobe and O'Neal both want to take this FMVP, so Phil wants everyone, especially Kobe and O'Neal, to be quiet.
Phil first sat down in a zazen position, facing everyone, and said: "When I was a child, my mother used to tell me the Bible, and she used to say that the empty brain is the devil's playground, but I think the opposite view of her is correct, I am not interested in filling the brain with useless things, I want to give the brain a break, let it be what it should be." Later, in the third year after my daughter was born, I built a house by Lake Flathead in Montana, and after building the framework, we hired a construction worker to help with the follow-up work, this worker impressed me because of his calm and focused demeanor, and he was not distracted when he worked, and later I learned that he was learning Zen in the monastery of Mount Shasta in Northern California, so I read the classic book "The Beginning of the Zen Master" by Toshitaka Suzuki, I've finally found something that can help me control my active brain, and that's meditation, and I hope it will help you in the coming years. ”
