As a Kobe hater, he was actually teammates with Kobe!

Los Angeles Lakers.

Inside general manager Mitch Kupchak's office.

Team management angrily surrounded Mitch Kupchak.

"I've said it before, finding gold with a low draft pick is inherently difficult."

"Zhou, he's just a guy with strong limbs and a simple mind."

"That's right, Mr. Mitch. We in Los Angeles are not Houston. There's no need to be stingy and sign players who can play right away to fully support Kobe."

"Zhou, he's a ticking time bomb. We need to get him on the shelf as soon as possible."

"Zhou, his toxic nature has been exposed. This bastard actually dared to elbow Kobe."

"That guy's iron elbow actually caused Kobe to get 8 stitches in the corner of his eye, but fortunately it won't affect the regular season opener."

"Zhou Ze was already a repeat offender during his college days, and New Orleans rookie Chris Paul knows this all too well."

...

...

The management put pressure on Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak and Lakers coach Phil Jackson to DNP "Zhou Ze", who was selected by the team with the seventh pick in the second round this year, and trade him as soon as possible.

This gave them a headache.

Just yesterday, in the Lakers' internal open game, Zhou Ze faced Kobe who was trying to dunk over him while breaking through the basket, and he hit him with a hard elbow.

Kobe was immediately covered in blood.

The Los Angeles rookie elbowed Kobe Bryant, and the incident quickly fermented on the Internet.

Breaking News!!! Lakers rookie elbows Kobe!

In the training match, Kobe and Zhou Ze elbowed each other!

"Locker Room Bomb! The Rookie!"

Who dares to elbow Kobe? Only Chef Zhou!

"Lakers second-round pick Zhou Ze, his best skill isn't dunking or cooking, but elbowing."

...

...

Phil Jackson, the Zen Master who returned to the Lakers as head coach again this year, faced fierce "protests" from the team management and once again reviewed Zhou Ze's player file.

Player: Zhou Ze

Nationality: Chinese

生日：1986年6月6日（19岁零4个月+）

Height: 206cm barefoot, 208cm with shoes (bones are not fully closed, there is still room for growth.)

Arm span: 211cm

Shoulder width: 66cm

Standing reach: 267cm

Weight: XNUM X kg

In terms of static talent and physique, NBA scouts gave him a score of 7.

The difference in arm span and height is 5cm, which is actually not particularly bad, and is still at a lower-average level.

You should know that Paul George, who has the same arm span as Zhou Ze, can give people a slender and enchanting feeling because of his broad shoulders.

However, Zhou Ze has a shoulder width of 66cm, comparable to many centers over 7 feet tall, which results in Zhou Ze's standing reach being only 267cm.

His standing reach of 267cm is extremely poor among inside players.

Michael Jordan, who is 198cm tall, has a standing reach of 269cm.

And Sun Wukong’s standing reach is 267cm.

A defender with excellent static talent, his standing reach is no worse than Zhou Ze.

For this reason, Zhou Ze was nicknamed "Tyrannosaurus Rex" by scouts.

...

...

Dynamic talents:

In-situ jumping: 81cm

Running jump: 90cm

84kg bench press: 22 times (first in 05)

3/4-court sprint (22.86 meters): 3.28 seconds.

Four-point movement in the three-second zone: 10.95 seconds.

His standing jump of 81cm is the same as Walker, Paul, McCollum and Butler, but Zhou Ze is a serious inside player at 206cm and 113kg.

His 90cm running jump is comparable to that of violent dunkers like JR Smith, Howard and Stephen Curry.

84kg bench press, 22 reps, not only ranked first in the 05 draft, crushing the top draft pick Andrew Bogot, but even in the short history of the NBA, it is quite explosive.

3/4 court sprints are the same as Curry, Beal and Booker.

Move four points in the three-second zone, just like Bill.

Zhou Ze's speed, jumping ability and agility are all at the guard level.

For this reason, NBA scouts gave Zhou Ze a dynamic talent score of 9 points.

The full score is 10 points.

The point deducted is for "speed of bullet" and "explosive power".

Zhou Ze's speed and explosive power are very mediocre.

Although the jump is high, the charging time is long, giving the opponent enough time to defend.

Although he runs fast, his acceleration ability is poor and he has difficulty getting past the defense with his first step.

...

...

Player technical aspects:

Limited by static talent, and with sparse explosiveness and jumping speed, his one-on-one defense is okay, but his help defense and rim protection are poor. Although his defensive enthusiasm is far ahead of ordinary players, he is easily fooled and easily falls into foul trouble too early.

Overall defensive ability has not reached the NBA average.

Similarly, in terms of rebounding, although he has a strong body and excellent strength, his rebounding sense is average and he is not a rebounder that the team can trust.

Offensively, his low-post offense relies on his size and strength, with only a right-sided turnaround jumper and crude footwork. NCAA players are relatively undersized and lack strength, so Zhou Ze can often put up decent numbers, but in the NBA, his limited offensive tools will be fully exposed.

Mid-range shots, almost none.

Three point shooting, with good efficiency and output during his NCAA career, he is one of the best big shooters in the 05 class!!!

There is almost no control over transportation capabilities.

As the leader of the North Carolina Big Five and the key player in their championship victory, Zhou Ze possesses formidable passing vision, solid passing fundamentals, and a captivating imagination. However, he risks passing too many times, which could lead to errors in high-level competition.

NBA scouts gave Zhou Ze a technical rating of "6 points".

...

...

Personality and others.

In addition to the player's static talent, dynamic talent, and skills, the player's file also includes judgments on "character", "mental strength" and "injury risks".

Zhou Ze has a strong competitive spirit, just like Jordan and Kobe.

Even when the team is in adversity, there will not be any thought of giving up. The more adverse the situation is, the more courageous they are to take action and take responsibility.

With good communication skills, he secured a starting position in his freshman year and also served as a "leader" on the court. In addition to his personal strength, his communication skills are also evident.

He has a fiery temper and can get easily provoked. When provoked by opponents, he can occasionally get enraged and resort to physical violence. Chris Paul of Wixom University has experienced this firsthand.

When Zhou Ze first arrived at North Carolina, he had many conflicts with the four young players in their third year. However, with his superb cooking skills and unique personal charm, he was able to integrate well into the team and quickly establish a chemical reaction with his teammates.

His knees have certain injury risks, and he had to recuperate for two months before the March Madness campaign.

...

...

Zhou Ze, who has average static talent and rough techniques, but excellent running and jumping talents, a solid physique, outstanding strength, and a good three-point shot, fell to the second round.

A hot temper and potential injuries are very important reasons.

You know, the other four of the North Carolina Five:

Marvin Williams, this year's second pick.

Raymond Felton, fifth pick in the first round.

Sean May, 13th pick in the first round.

Rashard McCants, 14th pick in the first round.

The lowest pick, Rashard McCants, was the 19th overall pick in the first round, and they are still juniors. In terms of potential, they are no match for Zhou Ze, who just turned .

For this reason, when the Los Angeles Lakers selected Zhou Ze with the second pick in the second round, Lakers fans felt like they had found a treasure.

With such an explosive body, he can definitely become a piece of the team's rebuilding puzzle and assist Kobe's general.

But what I didn’t expect was...

Zhou Ze unexpectedly elbowed Kobe mercilessly during yesterday's team open game.

Although Kobe elbowed Zhou Ze in the last round, your revenge was not only quick but also fierce.

After sending O'Neal away and the Lakers F4 disbanded, Kobe was the absolute core of the team.

As a country of etiquette, you Chinese should be very knowledgeable about human nature and the world.
