NBA: Miracle Workers

Chapter 151 Stud is just for a better life (daily chapter)

Since Phil Jackson arrived in the City of Angels, the one who has been most affected has been Kobe Bryant.

Following in the footsteps of his idol, Kobe would ask Phil Jackson questions about Michael Jordan:
"How does McQueen handle the offense?"

"What is the daily training status of Maikou?"

"How does McNair handle relationships within the team?"

"How did McQueen lead the team to 72 wins?"

"Why did the Bulls lose to the Knicks in '98?"

"."

Almost turned into a hundred thousand whys, Kobe’s curiosity sometimes left Phil Jackson speechless:

"You win the game just by hanging up. There are so many reasons why."

In order to deal with Kobe and start work as soon as possible, Phil Jackson recruited Ron Harper to the Lakers.

This veteran knows best how to play the triangle offense, and he can also handle Kobe's curiosity.
The head coach has his own cronies, and veteran Harper naturally agreed wholeheartedly after receiving the call. He would not refuse Phil Jackson's call.

Ron Harper often plays against Li You. Unlike the Western Conference teams who only play the Knicks twice a season, the Bulls and Knicks are old rivals.

Kobe Bryant, who had invested in training early, started a new round of consultation after Harper came to the team:

"Why can Lee hit so many three-pointers under your guard?"

"."

After the two got familiar with each other a few times, Harper almost punched the upright little brother when he heard Kobe's question.

The trainer of the Lakers really likes Kobe's training attitude. It only took Kobe three years to go from a thin high school student to a core outside player last season.

Such talent and training attitude are seen by everyone.

While doing stretching exercises, Harper saw Kobe's curious eyes and finally said helplessly:

"Lee is better than he appears on tape. He can shoot, pass, break through, and dribble to reach his sweet spot to complete the offense."

"The most important thing is that he is calm and mature like a young man!"

"You can only see his offense from the video. Only when you play against him can you really feel Lee's pressure."

"He is not McDuck. Their playing styles are far different and their offensive skills are completely different. Maybe I can give you some advice. Go train with Tim Grover. Maybe you will meet Lee."

McQueen's trainer, Tim Grover?
Kobe's eyes immediately lit up after hearing the suggestion. He could continue to pursue the footsteps of his idol, and he could also take his girlfriend Vanessa to Chicago for a stroll:
"This is a really good idea. It is said that training courses are expensive, but I don't care about the cost!"

"."

Tim Grover's business has been very good recently. Since Li You won the scoring champion, MVP, and championship this season, he has become popular among NBA players.

"Want to complete the transformation like Li?"

"Want to know how MVP is trained?"

“Want to know the secret of why Li’s agility remains the same even after gaining muscle?”

"Better Call"

Tim Grover did not participate in these advertisements, but his staff started cutting leeks under the banner of Li You after getting permission.

On July 7, when Li You and Mark Bartelstein arrived in Chicago, they were blocked by the sports media.

Although the Bulls and Knicks are rivals, Chicago fans and media don't care.

Mike Dunk has retired, and fans hope that the Bulls can welcome another superstar. General Manager Krause has long known that Li You will not leave New York, and he has to show his thirst for talent at this time.

In the past few days, every team has produced recruitment advertisements. The Bulls did not make any move, so they were sprayed by some fans.

Looking at the smiling Klaus holding Li You in a cordial conversation, many sports media clicked their cameras, so there is no need to worry about tomorrow's news:

"Clay-Lee takes over Chicago!"

Li You walked around the Bulls and accompanied the management to visit the "great achievements" created by McNugget.

In the United Center, there are still elements of McDuck. Five O'Brien Cups, this is the honor that Michael Jordan brought to Chicago.

Neither party discussed the contract. In the end, Li You took photos and checked in. The two parties had a happy dinner, which was the end of the trip to the Bulls.

Early the next morning, Li You arrived at Tim Grover's training center in southwest Chicago.

As a VIP customer, Tim Grover naturally accompanied him throughout the entire process.

"You want to continue to improve your explosive power and bullet speed? Seriously, this is difficult to do!"

"This kind of training won't bring you much reward. It's more about testing your body's raw talent, rather than your core strength. I can continue to give you some advice."

Tim Grover frowned in response, but Li You didn't care and said seriously:

"I just want to add some training in this area, even if it's physical strength training."

"The shortened season did not improve me much. The schedule is intensive and there are repeated opponents. Most of the daily training focuses on recovery and tactical training."

"I need to work out a detailed training plan for next season in advance, and I may have to adjust my diet."

What Li You said was true. He could see the talent progress through the panel:

[Michael Jordan's extraordinary core strength] and [Michael Jordan's extraordinary coordination] still haven't turned purple.

The talent of Anfernee Hardaway obtained this season is only bronze, and there is huge room for improvement.

Tim Grover pondered for a while and then nodded. He did not discourage Li You's enthusiasm.

Players are usually very confident. All he has to do is arrange the training plan reasonably and then make further adjustments based on body feedback.

"Come on, Li! A Lakers player came today. He seems to be very interested in your training plan. Please remember to cooperate with me later!"

Tim Grover patted his shoulder and motioned to act with his eyes. Of course, Li You would not refuse such a request, and responded with a smile:
"No problem, it seems this is an important customer!"

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Kobe Bryant, who had a small afro, visited this huge training base accompanied by the staff.

Through communication with the staff, Kobe knew that the training base was only officially completed last year. After a year of improvement, it has now officially begun operations.

"Cool! There are two basketball gyms and a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. The training facilities here are better than the team's!"

Kobe was excitedly communicating with the staff around him, and he was already looking forward to the meeting later.When they came to the yoga room, Tim Grover and Li You had already started stretching and they were communicating in low voices.

Seeing Kobe's figure, Tim Grover made a gesture, and then motioned for Kobe to move too.

Trying to remain serious, Tim Grover and Li You showed themselves to be fully engaged.

The affected Kobe lost his smile at this time and hurriedly moved his body along with him.

When the warm-up was halfway through, Tim Grover winked at Li You, and then pretended to teach him secrets.

"Very good, Kobe. Today, you will experience a completely different training than in the past!"

"Before the training session officially starts, I need to correct your mentality. You have to become a ruler, not only to dominate the court, but also to dominate your own body!"

"Only through high-intensity training can you fully activate your talents. Mike and Li have done the best. They have become real rulers."

"I hope you have the same mentality as a true ruler!"

Li You, who was still stretching on the side, felt that these words were somewhat familiar, and then suddenly realized that this was what Tim Grover said to him last year.
Kobe Bryant's eyes widened slightly and he nodded, seemingly believing Tim Grover's words.

"Always believe in your shooting, and always believe that your next shot will hit!"

"Don't care about other people's opinions. All you need to do is keep taking shots. When you enter the "white hot space", no one can stop you, not your opponents, nor your teammates."

Tim Grover introduced his "white hot space" theory in a slightly bewildering tone, and Kobe was already listening intently.

Especially when it was introduced that both McNaughton and Li You had experienced this state, Kobe showed an expression that was indeed the case.
Li You on the side was speechless. Tim Grover had simply become a magic stick. He had never experienced a "white-hot space".

In order to make Kobe believe his theory, Tim Grover winked at Li You, and then asked seriously:

"Lee, you can also share your feelings. I believe it will be of great help to Kobe."

Kobe was almost crippled by the deception at this time. For the sake of half of this year's training fee, Li You immediately followed the opponent's words and said:

"Yes, Tim's training helps me understand my body better, and the 'white hot space' is real."

"When I am completely focused on the game, sometimes I will enter a special state. You will feel that the opponent's movements slow down, the basket becomes larger, and you can hit the shot if you shoot at will."

"Well, it was like bullet time in the Matrix movie not long ago, that was a wonderful feeling!"

Kobe finally became lame after being fooled by the two of them. At this time, he excitedly asked Li You:

"I watched the video of your game with the Bulls carefully, and I heard Harper mention this. It's incredible. How did you do it?"

Tim Grover coughed lightly, and then said confidently:
"Believe me, it only takes less than a year for you to truly understand your body and fully realize your talents!"

"cool!!"

Kobe moved his body and sighed again. Tim Grover and Li You looked at each other and it was done.
Li You came to Chicago this time not to train. The main purpose was to collect physical data and then formulate a new training plan.

Tim Grover introduced Li You's training program, and Kobe kept nodding aside.

Seeing the photos of Li You before he gained weight, Kobe subconsciously took another look at his current body shape, and couldn't help but secretly make up his mind to train here. The money was well spent!
There are a lot of resistance bands in Li You's training, and as his physical fitness increases, the amount of training also increases.

Kobe Bryant also tried it under the guidance of Tim Grover.
After Li You completed the detailed physical examination, he saw that Kobe, who had been poisoned by the "white hot space" theory, was already lying down.

The follow-up shooting training hadn't even started yet. Kobe, who was panting heavily, couldn't help but consult Li You:

"What time do you train every day? How many sets do you do in a day's training session?"

At this time, Li You showed an expression as if he was recalling the past. He did not answer the question directly, but sighed and said:

"Have you ever seen Manhattan at 4 a.m.? I push my body to its limit twice in one day."

Tim Grover coughed again, signaling to Li You that he didn't need to fool around anymore.

After hearing Li You's answer, Kobe also showed an expression of disbelief.

Recalling the original Rookie Challenge in his mind, and thinking about Li You's achievements in the past two years, Kobe secretly said:
"A woman will only affect the intensity of my training. I must not lose to my opponent!"

Kobe was immersed in training, but Vanessa, who had been shopping in Chicago, didn't see her boyfriend until she returned to the hotel in the afternoon.
On July 7th, when Li You saw his friend Aiwen, he noticed the dark circles under his eyes and couldn't help but joke:

"Have stocks gone up again?"

In Mark Bartelstein's office, Ivan became energetic again after hearing about the stocks, and said in an unbelievable tone:
"It's unbelievable, or it should be said that it has gone crazy, investors are crazy, everyone is crazy!"

According to traditional investment thinking, in the past, when Ivan bought technology stocks, he would go to Silicon Valley to investigate, but the market was crazier than he imagined.

Internet companies that burn money only think about expanding their scale, and no one seems to consider profitability, and investors also recognize this model.

We just advertise, go public and raise funds, and then watch the market value skyrocket!
Some companies even hold parties more than 10 times a week, with all kinds of tricks. Alvin was injured at work last year.
Mark Bartelstein also bought a lot of stocks, but after the party at the beginning of the month, he completely calmed down:

“I think this situation is affected by the long-term capital gains tax, and as a reminder, some founders have already started to cash out.”

Li You also learned something about the situation from the party at the beginning of the month, but the memory in his mind told him that this feast should last until 2000, but he did not know in which month the decline started.

The 1997 bill modified the long-term tax rate, which was reduced from 28% to 20%. After two years of fermentation, American aunts also know that stocks can make money.
"We also have to prepare to sell some stocks at the end of the year!"

Li You was also a little uneasy. He had almost squandered his own funds. He had basically not wasted money in the past two years, just to reap the dividends of the Internet.

"Qualcomm's stock is still rising! The stocks of communication companies and network companies that serve Internet companies are also rising like crazy!"

"To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to part with it. There are several stocks that have grown nearly 10 times. This is simply a dream scene!"

As soon as Ai Wen heard that Li You wanted to settle down, he was a little reluctant. He also followed suit, and he emptied half of the family's money.

Watching his friend walking around, seemingly wanting to continue throwing money, Li You, who was leaning on the sofa, said helplessly:

"When I sign the contract in August, I will advance this year's salary. This is our last money!"

"When everyone is going crazy, it's time for us to retreat. Think about it, why are we buying stocks?"

"The beautiful knife back in Kari can bring us a better life, but now, that is just a number, we have to leave!"

Thinking that his bank card was completely empty, Alvin finally came to his senses, then pumped his fist and shouted excitedly:

"Shet! After the knife is back in my pocket, I'm going to have a champagne bath in a New York nightclub!"

“We’re going to fly to St. Barts to party, go to St. Tropez and Ibiza and have a blast!”

Li You touched his chin and added:
"Miami is also a good place. We can find the most beautiful girls and have fun until dawn!"

Manhattan at 4 o'clock in the morning can no longer meet the needs of the two of them. As long as they stay up for another half a year, Li You can have a better life:
“It’s time to go back to Albuquerque!”
