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

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 1 random attribute point. Do you want to strengthen it? ]

The system's voice sounded again.

The muscles at the corners of Zhou Ze's mouth twitched subconsciously.

Random attributes?

Is the Gou system so careless?

Make sense.

At present, what Zhou Ze hopes most is to increase his arm span. After all, his arm span is really short now, and his standing reach is not as good as some top-level guards with static talents.

[Ding, bullet speed +1, increased to 71 (115)]

"not bad."

"Although the improvement in this one point of bullet speed is not obvious, for many NBA players, it is the result of half a season of hard training."

Zhou Ze was quite satisfied with this.

...

...

After the game, players from both sides hugged each other as usual, with the attitude of "friendship first, competition second".

Looking at Kenyon Martin with a bitter face walking towards him.

Zhou Ze smiled and opened his arms.

Kenyon Martin scored 8 points and 4 rebounds tonight, and because he was pulled out to the three-point line by Zhou Ze during the game, his presence was very weak.

"Hey, man, why do you look so unhappy?" Zhou Ze asked knowingly.

Kenyon Martin rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Brother, I suggest you shoot more three-pointers and stop focusing on the basket. Look at me, I barely broke a sweat and scored 20+ points easily."

"Being a wimp is very promising." Zhou Ze said with a smile on his face.

Of course, Zhou Ze's words were not sincere.

First, although Zhou Ze played the soft side most of the time on offense, he was very hard-working on defense. Therefore, when Kobe saw Zhou Ze miss a mismatched shot under the basket, he only gritted his teeth but didn't yell at him.

Secondly, Zhou Ze feels that as one of the few softies in the current league, he is somewhat different. He hopes that through his own efforts, more and more inside players will join the ranks of softies.

After they become softies, and you grow up completely and become invincible, wouldn’t that be a “double happiness”?

Finally, not every player can develop a three-point shot. Most NBA players who are not good at shooting in the early stages of their careers will find it difficult to develop a stable three-point shot throughout their entire careers.

Of course, Kenyon Martin didn't take Zhou Ze's words to heart.

"Rookie, I hope you can have such good luck as tonight next time we meet." In Kenyon Martin's opinion, Zhou Ze may have a good three-pointer, but the reason he was able to put up good numbers tonight was largely because the team did not pay attention to him or target him from the beginning, which allowed his touch to warm up and he had enough confidence in shooting.

"Don't worry, next time we meet, I will be 10,800 times more accurate than I am now." Zhou Ze said confidently and firmly.

...

...

on the other hand.

As a rookie and a Chinese citizen, Zhou Ze scored 23 points, 2 assists and 3 rebounds in his debut game. After the game, he was surrounded by more than a dozen media outlets.

When it comes to media popularity, no one on the Lakers can compete with him except Kobe.

However, the questions asked by American media reporters were very tricky and sharp.

"Zhou, as a rookie you took 10 three-pointers tonight. Aren't you worried that your teammates will have opinions?"

"Zhou, as a barefoot center who stands 206cm tall and weighs 113kg, your offensive output in the paint is limited. Do you have a mysophobia?"

"Zhou, you played 30 minutes tonight, but only had 3 rebounds, which ranks 6th on the Lakers, even worse than guard Kobe. Don't you like fighting for offensive rebounds?"

"Zhou, has your relationship with Kobe really improved? Are you still willing to play with Kobe?"

...

...

And so on!

The questions from the media reporters were very unfriendly.

[Ding, the Basketball Peak System issues a daily player mission: Angry at reporters!]

[Mission Reward: 300 Peak Value Points.]

Before accepting media interviews, the team's coaching staff and public relations team hoped that Zhou Ze's answers would be humble and gentle, so as to create a good image in front of the media.

But the rewards of this system are really tempting.

Sorry!

The Gou system won’t let me keep a low profile!

"Yes, I took 10 three-pointers, but I made 5 of them. Is my three-point shooting percentage low?"

"As a rookie on the team, I took a lot of shots, but that was arranged by the coaching staff. You should ask Mr. Phil Jackson about this question."

"Why do I take so few shots in the paint? This is also arranged by the coaching staff!!!"

"For the team to win, I'm willing to do anything, even if it means being called a wimp in your eyes!"

"As for rebounding, I didn't protect it well. I will strengthen the relevant training."

"Kobe and I don't have too many conflicts, and I believe he doesn't hate playing on the court with me."

...

...

In response to the reporter's tricky questions, Zhou Ze remained neither humble nor arrogant and responded one by one.

Faced with his own shortcomings and weaknesses, such as rebounding and defense, Zhou Ze did not shy away and admitted them generously.

Seeing the strong and domineering Zhou Ze looking straight at them, the reporters who wanted to make things difficult for him felt inexplicably guilty.

The reporters who supported Zhou Ze applauded.

Meanwhile, Kobe Bryant, who was being interviewed by the media, was asked by reporters about his experience playing with Zhou Ze. He said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "When I wanted to hit him, he always managed to change my mind through his performance on the court and bring him a good breakfast."

When Kobe mentioned Zhou Ze, he did have an expression of jealousy, but it was more of admiration.

Reporters also saw that Kobe had a love-hate relationship with Zhou Ze.

...

...

[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the daily task - angrily scolding the reporter.]

[Ding, congratulations on receiving the reward—300 peak points.]

Peak Value: 416/816

Zhou Ze got two chances to draw a random lottery.

This made Zhou Ze, who had argued with the media reporters, happy. He really hoped that there would be such tasks in the future.

But at the same time, the Lakers' public relations manager quickly pulled Zhou Ze out, fearing that he would fall out with the media.

You know, these unscrupulous media love to "take things out of context".

"Zhou, these media outlets are not easy to deal with. If you confront them like this, you will get into a lot of trouble."

"You should learn from your compatriot, Dayao."

The Lakers' media relations manager tried to persuade Zhou Ze earnestly.

Although Zhou Ze's character is a bit reckless, he is not ungrateful. He knows that the other party has good intentions.

Zhou Ze, who was afraid of being nagged, actively admitted his mistake.

The public relations manager breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

What the PR manager didn’t know was that Zhou Ze’s principle was “actively admit mistakes and never repent.”

...

...

"lottery!"

"lottery!"

Zhou Ze continues to draw lots!

Two consecutive draws.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a random attribute +1, do you want to strengthen it? ]

【Yes. 】

[Ding, bullet speed +1, increased to 72 (115).]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the new badge - Sharpshooter (Bronze)]

P.S.: The previous two books all involved training to become stronger, but the pace was quite slow, and they weren't very popular on the current platform, so I had to reluctantly let them go. However, the system point allocation will be strictly planned, which will also give you a sense of substantial strength growth. I will update this book steadily, so I hope you won't wait for it. I will continue to write seriously.
