Chapter 304 - Kobe Bryant's Preaching

On November 1, 2009, Li Yao, who got a day off, originally wanted to go to Kobe Bryant for a morning exercise, but it was Margot who woke up earlier than him to appease Xiao Li Hao. Robbie stopped because yesterday day Margot was stopped. While chatting with Vanessa, Robbie learned that Kobe Bryant will be at the Staples Center Arena today to face the visiting Atlanta Hawks.

After learning the news. Li Yao gave up this plan, and then from Margot. Robbie's arms brought little Li Hao over and began to tease.

And Xiao Li Hao, who was held in Li Yao's arms, stared at the man in front of him tightly with his big watery eyes.

Margot on the side. Robbie watched the two men closest to him in his life staring at each other, and suddenly felt a taste called happiness welling up in his heart.

At this moment, Li Yao's phone rang suddenly.

"Hey, Kobe, don't you have to play today?" Return Xiao Li Hao to Margot again. After Robbie, Li Yao picked up the phone and looked at it, oh, okay, but the caller ID showed that it was Kobe, so Li Yao suddenly picked up the phone and said speechlessly.

"Hurry up and get here, I'm not worried, what are you kid talking about?" In the face of Li Yao's inquiry, Kobe Bryant didn't say much, and after notifying Li Yao, he hung up the phone directly.

"Yes, this training maniac." Li Yao had no choice but to complain to the mobile phone that had fallen into a busy sound.

"Isn't there a game for Kobe Bryant today? Why do I still want you to go to the morning exercise? "Margot on the side. Robbie also heard from Li Yao's words at this time that the call was from Kobe, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"That kind of thing seems reasonable to that training maniac." Li Yao shrugged and kissed Margot. After Robbie and Xiao Li Hao took a bite, they went directly to Kobe's house.

When he arrived at the basketball court of Kobe's house, Li Yao found Kobe Bryant jogging at this time.

"Aren't you worried about training too much and not performing well at night?" Li Yao asked Kobe Bryant while doing warm-up activities.

"When am I going to behave badly?" In the face of Li Yao's inquiry, Kobe Bryant responded with an arrogant face.

"Shameless." Faced with Kobe's sassy answer, Li Yao could only whisper some of his unhappiness.

"By the way, you kid had a pretty big time at the Staples Center yesterday!" After Kobe Bryant picked up the basketball and threw in a three-pointer, he turned his head to Li Yao and said.

"Clams? What do you mean? Li Yao asked with some confusion.

"That thing did yesterday was handled well, but, Lee, do you know what mistakes you made yesterday?" Kobe first praised Li Yao, and then his words suddenly became stronger.

"What's wrong?" Kobe Bryant's compliment Li Yao can probably guess that he should be referring to his own avoidance and Jason. Terry's conflict, but for the mistake in Kobe's mouth, Li Yao was still a little confused, he thought back to yesterday's game, and didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

"What are you doing when your teammates are cold? Didn't you actually take the offensive power on the field, and you still tried to help your teammates get back their feelings? If it weren't for you, you wouldn't have been overtaken by the Mavericks, and you would have been suppressed by others for the rest of the game, and eventually lost the game, you still haven't understood how to be a leader! Kobe Bryant first pointed out the mistakes made by Li Yao in his eyes, and finally couldn't help but sigh.

Kobe actually came to Los Angeles and contacted Li Yao, he still agreed with Li Yao, a guy who wanted to challenge him as the king of Los Angeles, especially the Clippers, a new army in the reconstruction, actually started to kill three Western giants in a row under the leadership of Li Yao, which also made Kobe not only look different to Li Yao.

Kobe even joked to his wife Vanessa that after he retires, he will definitely ask the Lakers to bring Li Yao to their Lakers no matter what the price is, because if the Lakers can have Li Yao, then the impact of his retirement on the Lakers will be minimized, and even the Lakers can still maintain their status as a Western powerhouse.

However, after watching Li Yao's game last night, Kobe couldn't help but be a little angry, because he couldn't find what the team should do as a team leader in adversity from Li Yao, you must know that Kobe Bryant has actually put Li Yao and himself on the same level, so Kobe Bryant is so dissatisfied, and even a little sharp in his words about Li Yao.

This is also the reason why Kobe Bryant still called Li Yao out for morning exercise on game days, just to teach Li Yao a good lesson.

"Kobe, I know what you mean, but the two of us are in different situations." Of course, Li Yao also understood the meaning of Kobe's words, that is, he was not decisive enough and his desire to score was not strong enough.

"What's the difference? Are you satisfied after three wins in a row? Kobe Bryant couldn't help frowning when he heard Li Yao say that the situation was different between the two, and he felt that Li Yao was sarcastically mocking himself.

"Kobe, you should understand that I didn't mean that." After Li Yao saw Kobe's frowning brows, he knew that Kobe Bryant must have wanted to be crooked, so he hurriedly explained.

"And what do you mean?" After Kobe Bryant heard Li Yao's explanation, his face also eased slightly.

"Kobe, what I'm saying is that as a shooting guard, it's natural for you to lead the team with scoring, and that's your duty, but Kobe Bryant, please don't forget that I'm a playmaker, and my job is to connect teammates to win games." Li Yao said in a somewhat heavy tone.

He has no problem letting Li Yao score, he has so many offensive skills, Li Yao really doesn't believe that with so many of his offensive skills, there is anyone in the league who can completely limit his offense.

However, he is a point guard, and organizing offense is his job, and his first task is to use basketball to connect his teammates, so as to win the game by relying on team strength, which is what a qualified point guard should do in Li Yao's mind, just like Steve. Nash and Jason. Kidd like that.

And like Aaron. Iverson and later Russell. Crazy scorers like Westbrook, in Lee's view, they are just scoring guards in the name of point guards, and they are not a good point guard, although their assists are not bad, but this does not mean that they are a qualified point guard.

"Poof, Lee, I think you're on the wrong foot." Kobe Bryant couldn't help but chuckle after hearing Li Yao's explanation, and he realized that Li Yao still has such a cute side.

"Clams?" Li Yao looked at Kobe Bryant with a confused expression, he couldn't understand why Kobe Bryant said that.

"Lee, you're not wrong at all, the point guard should be to organize the offense and connect teammates to win the game, and that's understandable, just like we scoring guards use scoring to win games, that's our responsibility." Kobe Bryant nodded first and admitted Li Yao's statement.

"Clams?" After Kobe Bryant said this, Li Yao was even more confused, since I am right, you said that I drilled the horns of the bull for Mao again?

"But, Lee, one thing you forget when you remember that you're a point guard is that you're still the leader of a team, the soul of this team." Just when Li Yao wanted to speak, Kobe Bryant changed his words and said to Li Yao with a serious face.

At this time, Li Yao was shocked by Kobe's words, and he seemed to have noticed that something was wrong.

"Lee, under normal circumstances, you are really not wrong to do this, but when the team is in trouble and your teammates can't score, you as the leader of the team should step up, no matter what position you are, winning the game is the most important thing you need to do, although you did it yesterday, but it was a little late, if you can wake up a little earlier, last night's victory may not belong to anyone."

"Lee, you have to remember that you are the leader of the Clippers now, a leader should carry the victory and defeat on his shoulder, win the game, this is what you should do, lose the game, it is your responsibility, don't be afraid of failure, this is the path you have to take to become a qualified leader." Kobe Bryant enlightened Li Yao with a serious face.

Kobe's words made Li Yao fall into deep thought, and he couldn't help but think of last spring, when he was still representing Stanford University in the NCAA crazy March, and coach Trent Johnson used a free fire against West Virginia University to tell himself what to do as a good leader if the team is in a stalemate.

But I don't know if it's because when he was on the Heat team last year, he was always taken care of by his side, Wade, but Li Yao gradually forgot the careful teaching of coach Trent Johnson.

You must know that the NCAA Championship was a single-elimination knockout game, and if there was a slight mistake, the team might go home directly, but Coach Trent Johnson directly used such a game to hone how to be a good leader, and this intention was actually forgotten by Li Yao.

"I'm so ashamed of Coach Trent Johnson, Kobe Bryant, you're right, the leader should be responsible for the team's victory and defeat, it has nothing to do with what position I hold on the court, only leading the team to victory is what I should do." Li Yao finally came to his senses at this time and sincerely apologized to Kobe.

"You can figure it out, okay, the warm-up is almost over, it's time to train." After Kobe Bryant saw Li Yao come to his senses, a smile also appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he hurriedly tightened his expression and said to Li Yao seriously.

Li Yao didn't say much, and ran directly to the basketball court, took the basketball thrown by Kobe, and made a stop-and-go jump shot.
