I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 6 The Devil's Special Training
Tracy moved very quickly, and in a short while brought the contract that Pelinka had arranged in advance. The number of years is 3+1, which means that the player in the first 3 years is a restricted player. If the team has no intention of exchanging him, he must After staying in the team for 3 years, and the last year is a restricted free agent, the team has the priority to renew his contract.

The salary of the rookie contract is directly linked to the ranking. The top ten players belong to the lottery players, and the highest salary is 500 million. Generally, the number one pick has this kind of treatment.As for the other first-round and second-round rookies, the wages are reduced in turn.

Chu Xiao is the 21st pick in the draft, and his first-year salary can be 120 million US dollars.

"There seems to be no problem." Chu Xiao was about to find a pen to sign.

"Don't sign yet, you have to sign in front of the media later." Tracy stopped.

"Oh, okay." Chu Xiao smiled at her.

Trish replied with a smile, "You can think about your jersey number, and you can tell the media reporters later."

"I've figured it out, how about the 21st?" Chu Xiao looked at Cuixi, then at Mr. Ku.

"No. 21, neither retired nor active players, should be fine." Mr. Ku took the lead in agreeing.

"Then the 21st." Chu Xiao said.

Thackeray also chose his own number after hearing the words, "Although I was selected with the 60th overall pick, my favorite number is 50, is that okay?"

"Of course!" Mr. Ku agreed.

Thus, Chu Xiao and Thackeray got their wish respectively.Chu Xiao is No. 21, and Thackeray is No. 50.

The subsequent things were relatively simple. Kubchak showed up at the media conference with coach Brown, Chu Xiao and Thackeray, introduced the two rookies to the reporters and signed the contract, and explained by the way: Although the Lakers did not start this year Round lottery, but I have been paying attention to the performance of the rookies. The player from China, Chu Xiao, is young, energetic, and has a good passing vision. It is a win-win transaction and signing, which is good for the respective teams and players.

Subsequently, Kubchak announced the arrangements for the two rookies this summer. Thackeray will play in the summer league for the Lakers. Chu Xiao still has a lot to improve, so he will follow Capone for closed training.

In the next three months, the Lakers did not arrange for Chu Xiao to participate in any activities, so he followed Capone to experience Kobe's 666 devil training method without hearing anything from the window.

……

It's not for nothing that Kobe is considered the hardest-working player in NBA history.The training plan he made for himself was longer than anyone else, and he trained harder than anyone else.When people see him leaving the arena at 11 o'clock in the evening and seeing him appearing in the training ground at 4 o'clock the next morning, people will understand that the talent in the original draft was not considered outstanding, so that the 13th overall pick was not considered outstanding. How Kobe, who was selected, became the second shooting guard in history after Jordan step by step.

The Kobe in front of us is not just simple strength and shooting training, but ten years of polishing and unremitting hard training, so that he has the ability and status he has today.

In the eyes of coach Phil Jackson, Kobe was the most diligent player on the Lakers 10 years ago. Ten years later, no one can train harder than Kobe.Back then, Jordan had the experience of shooting 2000 shots a day in order to practice his touch, but in terms of overall strength, that was only Kobe's average level.It's a close match, but it must be a life-and-death game. Once the battle reaches the last 3 minutes, Kobe's performance at critical moments is unmatched.

His training form is always densely written: "Every morning, I start with weight lifting. I rely on it to improve my strength and muscle power. Usually, I will keep practicing until my arms shake and I can't lift it anymore. 7 o'clock Between 11:[-] and [-]:[-], I would go to practice shooting. Other times, I would sometimes hit the sandbags, which is also to increase strength and explosiveness."

Maybe that may seem boring, but Kobe tells you: "Basic physical training, very helpful. No matter what your plan is, but the master key to breaking through yourself is to push yourself to your limit. If you can't do it This is hard to get results. You have to be prepared to bear some physical pain, prepare your lungs to explode, and even, you think you may vomit blood. Haha, if you have something like this reaction, then you will naturally become stronger and stronger."

Until now, even if he is already an MVP and has a championship ring, he insists on shooting 700 to 1000 times a day, but he is still unshakable.

Kobe said: "Now I can only say that I have become more efficient. Instead of practicing every item and doing it. When you first entered this league, what did you care about your body? The best form, what hurts and burdens your body, and what is the best way to recover. I have been playing golf for more than ten years, so I know my body well. You have to have a plan and set yourself a plan. Create a schedule and stick to it."

Through Capone, Chu Xiao learned more about Kobe's unknown side, and his admiration for the idol is also increasing day by day.

Everyone in the world knows how strong Kobe is, but they haven't seen the process of Kobe becoming stronger, and naturally they can't appreciate the sweat and hard work he put in.

Chu Xiao was lucky. He trained according to Kobe's training method. No matter how hard the training was, he would shed a lot of sweat and painstaking efforts. Naturally, he understood Kobe's greatness better.He is like you and me, he is also flesh and blood, but he has obtained everything he has through hard work, and he can become the strongest in people's eyes.

Therefore, during the three months of long, boring training, whenever Chu Xiao thought about being lazy and giving up, when he thought of Kobe working so hard and desperately, why would he be lazy? !So he gritted his teeth and kept going.

Since he has never been exposed to such high-intensity training in China, he started step by step. He first practiced box jumping, jumped on the box and then jumped off. The height of each box is different. After jumping, he ran 30 yards quickly. 3 Accelerated running, 4 barbell lifting with the maximum amount of exercise, etc., this is just the first stage of training.

After a week, start to increase squats for 400 reps and 6 bench presses for 300 reps.

A month later, 6000 mid-range shots and three-pointers were added!Continued training at such an intensity lasted for another month.

In addition to being deeply influenced by Kobe, Chu Xiao also knows that the NBA is a very cruel league. Opportunity to become a rotation player on the court, and only when the physical fitness is top-notch, and the technology and golf quotient are top-notch, can he stand firm as the main force.

This is also the reason why some superstars already have superb basketball skills, but they are still very strict with their training.Because they know very well that the competition in the NBA is too cruel, and if they want to become a strong player in the league, they have to be tough on themselves. The movements of NBA stars are gorgeous and beautiful, and their physical fitness is also top-notch in the world. Many fans are envious of them. In fact, they have put in too much sweat behind their backs. They have endured physical and psychological pain that ordinary people cannot bear.

So, another month later, Chu Xiao's training entered a more intensive stage. In addition to completing the previous training tasks, he also needed to shoot 3000 jump shots every day and perform 5 sets of sit-ups, 200 times each! 3 sets of barbell curls, 15 reps each! 2 sets of barbell bench press, 15 reps each!Then run back and forth 20 times, 20 meters...

Especially in the week before the official training camp started, Capone added another 300 board jumpers for him, and four sets of triceps presses, 10 reps each! 2 times of 800 meters, 5 times of 400 meters after fatigue...

Chu Xiao didn't complain, and did everything.

But all of this has achieved the most obvious effect during this summer vacation.

Because Chu Xiao has strengthened the muscle thickness of his arms and shoulders through this training method, when the official NBA training camp officially started, after some media published his photos, many fans questioned the photographer's shooting level, because Chu Xiao seemed to have a much smaller head.

Later, Han Suixuan exclusively reported that Chu Xiao followed Capone for the "6-6-6" devil special training throughout the summer vacation, and disclosed the details of the training, which was exactly the same as Kobe's training back then.

This also proves from a certain angle that Chu Xiao's shoulders and upper limbs were strengthened to make his muscles thicker, and his head seemed a little smaller in contrast.

And Han casually revealed that Chu Xiao and Kobe's training methods are exactly the same, which also caused an uproar in the sports world.You know, for so many years, only Kobe has persisted in this devil's way for more than ten years.

Chu Xiao is now the second player in the NBA to practice this kind of training. This No. 21 rookie has the help of a mentor and excellent talent. Will his achievements stand out among the rookies? Following in Kobe's footsteps?
Some media and fans can't wait for the new season.
