Coach Lee

Chapter 9

Bang bang bang!
When he came to the training ground, Li Nan saw Kobe training alone at a glance.

Kobe, whose T-shirt was soaked, was practicing three-pointers, but his shooting percentage was a bit horrible.Bang bang bang sound of hammering iron, can be heard endlessly.

At a certain moment, Kobe suddenly saw Li Nan.For some reason, the two of them just met eyes.It was as if an electric spark had been sparked in the distance.

The sudden burst of sparks made the follower Tina extremely excited.

Click!

The inferior spotlight almost blinded people's eyes.

As if the posing was over, the two "models" turned their heads away.

Then one person occupied half of the court, and they played separately.

Interestingly enough, the two guys were doing pretty much the same thing in their respective halves.

Li Nan is shooting three-pointers, and Kobe is also shooting three-pointers.

Li Nan's three-pointer is really accurate, no matter how he shoots, he will score.The key is that his shooting is really beautiful, his movements are more standard than textbooks, and the balls he throws are all with strong backhand and beautiful arcs. Even if the ball misses, it is still a good shot.

And Kobe's movements were a little weak before, but now he suddenly cheered up.I used to be various blacksmiths, but now I have entered several in a row.

Tina looked at this side and that side for a while, and felt that the two guys were very powerful.

After shooting a three-pointer for a while, it may be that he took the initiative to admit defeat, and Kobe also switched to continuous dribbling under the crotch, which was very skillful.

Li Nan followed closely behind, and also made continuous crotch dribbles in a decent manner. It was a bit worse, but it was not bad.

Boom boom boom````
Although there were only these two guys on the field, the fierce voice sounded like dozens of people.

Glancing at the opposite side, Kobe also twitched the corners of his mouth.

After that, Kobe made another elegant tomahawk dunk, and Li Nan also made a self-throw and dunk not to be outdone.

"Wow! Kobe! Nice buckle!"

"Wow! Lee! You are amazing!"

"Come on, guys!"

Tina, who was the only audience, was also extremely happy.She clicked the shutter on this side, and flashed the spotlight on that side.

She is really thankful that she woke up early this morning.

As a trainee reporter for NBC TV, the news of these two guys will definitely make me finish my internship soon, right?

Three-pointers, dribbles, free throws, dunks.
The two guys didn't say a word, but they were fighting secretly, and neither of them had any intention of stopping.

Although there is no face-to-face collision to determine the winner, such a scene has already excited Tina.

Slowly, there were more people on the sidelines of the court.

But these two guys are still persisting, as if whoever stops first will lose.

If the arena administrator hadn't come up to persuade them to have a game later, these two guys might have stayed here for a day and a night.

Tina knew that Kobe and Li Nan had matches in the afternoon.But these two guys were wasting their energy regardless.Tina really couldn't figure out why.

Seeing the two leave without saying a word, Tina also shook her head,
"Oh, man~"

. . . . . .

The NBA Summer League is spread all over the United States, large and small, with several different locations hosting their respective leagues.

The Rocky Mountain Summer League is the oldest league, started in 1984.Later, there was the Southern California Summer League, which featured California teams, and so on.These two leagues are the most authoritative, and they are very popular games during the NBA offseason.

The main purpose of the NBA Summer League is to train players and examine the status of some rookies.

Generally, the main players and important substitutes of NBA teams will not participate in this league.Everyone's goal in the off-season is mainly to rest and recuperate. The participating players are the team's fringe players, free agents, trial players, international players, and subordinate Development League players, etc., as well as a large number of rookies and "sophomores".

The idea of ​​these people is very simple, that is, try their best to express themselves and win the trust of the team management and coaching staff as much as possible.

At the same time, there are some promising high school or college players who will also participate in the summer league. If they perform well, they can win extra points for the future NBA draft.

Not only did the participating players tend to be on the fringe, but it was not the head coaches of the NBA teams who led the team to participate in the summer league, but generally assistant coaches.

A total of 96 teams participated in the Rocky Mountain Summer League in 16.

Utah Jazz, Phoenix Suns, Dallas Mavericks, Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Lakers, Denver Nuggets, San Antonio Spurs, New York Knicks, Indiana Pacers, Philadelphia 76ers, a total of 10 NBA teams.

There is also a team from a university, the University of Utah; there are also 5 national teams from other countries, including an Asian team from the East, the Chinese Men's Basketball Team.

The summer league has its role for professional teams, and it also has special training value for the national team.

After all, this year is the Olympic Games in Atlanta.For some national teams, the summer league is the best place to prepare for the game.

The Chinese men's basketball team did not have very good luck in grouping in this game. They were assigned to the same group as the Lakers, Jazz, Mavericks, Suns, Trail Blazers, University of Utah, and 76ers.

Before the game against the Lakers, the Chinese team had a record of 1 win and 5 losses, and the only team that won was the University of Utah team.In winning the game against the University of Utah, the Chinese team was only 70-68, with a 2-point advantage.

In contrast, the record of the Lakers is much better. 5 wins and 1 loss, just lost to the host Jazz.

However, the Lakers, who had won consecutive battles like this, unexpectedly lost to the Chinese team.

After the news media reported it, it naturally attracted the attention of many people.

In the ongoing Rocky Mountain League scene, the upcoming game between the Lakers and the Mavericks, many fans in the stands are chatting with gusto.

"Did you watch yesterday's game? Kobe cried because he was guarded by an Asian player. Really, young people nowadays still have a bad mentality."

"Hey? Didn't Kobe get stepped on by treacherous Asians? It seems to be serious, and the two sides almost fought."

"How did I hear that there was a conflict between the two, and then Kobe was crippled by that Asian man using Chinese kung fu?"

"Don't make blind comparisons if you haven't watched the game. It was Kobe who almost crippled him. What I didn't expect was that the Asian guy suddenly went crazy and defended Kobe so hard that he couldn't find him. The Asian guy only played for 1 minute. Just scored 14 points, scored 4 unreasonable three-pointers, and one of them was 3+2, tsk tsk tsk, you didn’t see it, that guy is like a ghost, he can throw it in no matter what. If I Kobe, I cry too."

"It's a lie, right? How can Asians be so powerful?"
