Back in San Francisco, Addison rested for less than a day before he regained his personal trainer, Al Ay. Hossman, during the second tryout, the boy had a new idea, an idea to make the most of the vacation.

- You know the '666 Training Plan', right? Bryant. Bryant's '666 Training Plan'. Addison asked his trainer, startling Hossman.

“…… Of course I knew, and not only did I know, but I also studied. The trainer truthfully replied that KB24's masochistic training method is well-known throughout the league, but few people dare to try it, because this training mechanism is extremely testing the body's endurance and spirit, and even has the danger of pushing people to extremes.

But it is this training mechanism that allows Kobe Bryant to maintain his physical fitness and offensive and defensive ability close to his peak even at the age of 34. Durant, Stephen. Curry, a young and top scorer, is not far behind.

- I want to try. Addison said with a serious look that Kobe Bryant was only in his early 20s when he started trying the '666 training program', and the boy believes that he can now handle the intensity of training at this level.

"You'd better think it through before you decide, Add." Horsman was stunned and then quite professionally persuaded, "Do you know what Project '666' is? In a 24-hour day, you should devote at least 6 hours to training, excluding about 8 hours of sleep. In terms of shooting training alone, a jump shot from any position is not just 600 shots, but 600 shots! Do you understand the difference? ”

Addison certainly knew that he had prepared well before deciding to implement this training program, and he knew every detail of each of these training programs.

Since Bryant was able to take it and stick with it at the age of 20, why can't I? As I said before, as long as he gets involved in basketball, Addison will become extremely paranoid, and in the eyes of paranoia, what another paranoid person can do will definitely be able to do himself!

"I still have to advise you to think about it, Add, this training plan is not something that normal people can afford, only a madman would choose it on his own initiative." At the boy's insistence, Al had to compromise. Hossman shook his head helplessly, wanting to make one last effort.

However, Addison's words in his shorthand book made him choose silence.

- That's weird, Al?? When did you start thinking I was a normal person?

From May to June, the truly hot summer has officially arrived on the North American continent.

Addison began to endure the soreness in his limbs every day due to the intense training, and whenever he took a break from training, he would lie on the floor without hesitation, and let his whole body be covered with salty sweat as if he had been salvaged from the sea.

At the end of each day, he crawled back to his bedroom like a dog about to hang up, and when he lay down in bed, he didn't want to do anything more, and he didn't have any energy to do anything else.

Use the limit of consumption to make the body generate new kinetic energy, so as to gain progress and upward space, if you do not squeeze yourself to the limit, it is impossible to get substantial growth.

This is Kobe Bryant. Bryant's warning when he introduced his '666 training plan' was etched into his mind by Addison, who is also a basketball paranoid.

His erratic shooting is sure to be hampered in the top league, and the boys don't want to be in the NBA awkward situation of being defended by an opponent three steps from 10 feet away. It's like Charter. As Forde's scouting report says, Addison doesn't want his ceiling to be just a faster Ricky. Rubio, now Adidas' $100 million contract for the 'Spanish Golden Boy' is about to become the focus of ridicule......

The 'tradition' of traditional point guards is that their first task is to create space for their teammates and make the team's round scoring efficiency much better, rather than scoring themselves. Actually Mark. Jackson, John. Traditional point guards like Stockton have strong individual offensive ability, not to mention Gary. Peyton and Chauncey. Billups is an 'offensive master' at this level.

If you don't have excellent individual offensive and shooting ability, you will be constrained by the opponent when creating space for your teammates, how much defensive intensity can a point guard who can't shoot after a pick-and-roll can attract? Even the individual offense has been criticized for Jason. Kidd has made great strides in his breakaways, mid-range shots, and three-point shooting in the latter stages of his career, and even at the age of 35, he can still attract enough defense to create offensive space for his teammates.

This is the development template that Addison has customized for himself - a point guard who combines control of the court with individual offense, and a 'super metronome' that can get the team moving.

But thank God, the boy's explosive physiconess and recovery speed allowed him to resist the physical exertion of this masochistic training, and after basically a night of sleep and food, Addison would be alive and kicking up the training ground the next day.

With the arrival of June, the NBA playoffs have also come to an end.

The Miami Heat, led by the Big Three, and the San Antonio Spurs, who have become rivals in recent years, met again in the Finals, and the matchup between the strongest in the East and West attracted the attention of everyone on the North American continent for a while.

In the end, after five games, the Spurs, who are getting stronger and stronger, defeated the Heat with a total score of 4:1 to win the fifth championship in team history, and limited LeBron well in the finals. James explosively plays with Spurs small forward Coy. Leonard's Finals MVP (FMVP) also heralds the rise of the Spurs' younger generation.

Finals in Dwyan. Wade's form has dropped significantly due to a knee injury, while Chris. Bosh's weak performance on the inside has been the focus of media criticism after the game. Famous ball critic Bill. Simmons directly pointed out sternly: "The Heat team has only LBJ in the Finals, and the performance of Wade and Bosh is not even as good as that of veteran Rasade. Lewis. ”

The team's defeat in the championship seemed to be overshadowed, and the bigger events that followed made Miami once again the center of media coverage.

LeBron. James announced that he was jumping out of his contract and becoming a free agent. As for whether he will renew his contract with the Heat with a larger salary or switch to another team, he himself did not reveal even the slightest thing.

The Big Three's contracts this summer all have the option to jump out of becoming free agents, and LBJ's move undoubtedly put the Heat in a passive position immediately.

Immediately afterwards, the Heat's team spirit, Dwyane. Wade also announced that he would jump out of his contract, but he was renewing his contract for a salary cut to allow for the team's reinforcements.

In an interview with reporters, Wade expressed his hope that his friend LeBron . James' desire to stay in Miami is why he can choose to take a pay cut to renew his contract, all for the sake of the team's strength.

However, LBJ still did not show any reaction to the contract extension, and the indifference of the team's core also made Rashad . Lewis, Ray. Allen and other powerful veterans chose to wait and see, and for a while, the Heat's contract renewal work almost came to a standstill.

Amid the cacophony of media coverage, the 2014 NBA Draft was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York City.

***

June 26, New York time, outside the Barclays Center.

"The moment that will decide the fate of your career......" Sam. Bernie glanced around at the crowd around him, then smiled and teased, "Isn't that too serious?" ”

Addison didn't answer, but a young man next to him, who was strong enough to prop up a gray suit, waved his hand noncommittally: "It's serious, but it's true, Sam. ”

Jersey. Granger, Duke University — No, now a rookie cuttackle for the NFL Baltimore Ravens, he was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons with the sixth pick in the first round in this year's NFL Draft and was immediately recruited by the Baltimore Ravens in a trade.

Can become 'Thor' Thunder. Lewis's successor can be regarded as fulfilling the first wish of Granger's career. The Ravens are also confident in the 6-foot-4" big man and are ready to mold him into the team's new mid-lane leader. Overall, he's already a draft-through guy.

Addison exhaled softly, unaccustomed to arranging the collar of his slim-fitting suit. He shrugged his shoulders at his two friends and signaled that he was ready.

"Let's go, let's go face the cameras and the spotlight."
