Chapter 184 One-on-one Kobe Bryant
Wang Shipeng actually met Yan Qingwu at Wang Zhizhi's home.
When he got out of the car and saw the beauties smiling sweetly, Wang Shipeng was almost taken aback.He remembered that Yan Qingwu told him the day before yesterday that he would leave Chicago for a few days to do something.Unexpectedly, I saw her at Wang Zhizhi's home in Los Angeles.
"Wang, is it a surprise or a surprise?" The lively Vanessa suddenly jumped out from the side.
To be honest, Vanessa is only 22 years old now, and it is the time when she is full of youthful vitality and has an innocent girlish heart.
It is completely different from Wang Shipeng's impression of the widow wearing black gauze and tears in his eyes 15 years later.
Song Yang was also accompanying Yan Qingwu and Vanessa, but Kobe was nowhere to be seen.But these are not important, Wang Shipeng now wants to know what kind of surprise the little girl gave him.
After Yan Qingwu left the University of Chicago, she joined the Peng team and was in charge of Wang Shipeng's personal affairs.Of course, as a top student at the University of Chicago, Yan Qingwu is also a lecturer at the university, often going to give lectures to those elementary school students.
Two days ago, Yan Qingwu told him that she was going to another place to participate in an academic exchange event.Wang Shipeng didn't ask any more questions, but was only worried about the recent security situation in the United States.Hao Ren was specially asked to go out with her.
Shan Liang and Hao Ren originally left during the offseason.Wang Shipeng knew that they came to the United States ostensibly as illegal immigrants. Otherwise, it would be difficult to escape the attention of the FBI and CIA.
So when they wanted to leave, Wang Shipeng knew it must be to carry out the mission.No, and I didn't dare to ask more.
Unexpectedly, before the start of the regular season, Hao Ren came back again.
It turned out that they completed the task perfectly.But Shan Liang was injured during the mission and returned home.
However, Hao Ren chose to stay.
Wang Shipeng also agreed, Hao Ren is worthy of his name, he is a rare kind person.With him by my side, I can rest assured.
Although he now has a bodyguard team beside him, he is still willing to hand over some confidential matters to Hao Ren.
"I went to Sacramento for an event, and I happened to run into the Lakers who were playing there yesterday, and Kobe invited me over to surprise you. Here I am."
Wang Shipeng nodded and looked at the villa where several people were.Wang Shipeng said to Wang Zhizhi with admiration: "Yes, generally speaking, your soft food is quite good."
With Wang Zhizhi's salary, there is really no way to buy such a villa in the No. [-] luxury villa area in Los Angeles, but there is no way. Wang Zhizhi's wife Song Yang is a successful businessman who is the second generation of the army. Jan had already bought it.
It's just that because Wang Zhizhi has always been a dispensable role for the Clippers, he is unwilling to live here to attract attention.
But it’s different now. Wang Zhizhi is already the main substitute of the Lakers. With a stable playing time and team role, even if Tang Shuai’s body can’t hold on, he will still have to change coaches next season. As long as Kobe is still there, Wang Zhizhi can play for the Lakers. stay.
So he's now moved into Beverly Hills, which is where Kobe lives after all.Living here is also convenient for practicing with Kobe.
Wang Zhizhi rolled his eyes: "Who doesn't know that your income is already in the top three in the league, including Michael."
Wang Shipeng curled his lips, I am a time traveler, anyone can compare with me there.
"Aren't you going to ask where Kobe is?"
Several people sat in Wang Zhizhi's living room and chatted for a while.Suddenly, Song Yang asked Wang Shipeng.
"Needless to say, he must be training."
Vanessa was amused when she heard it: "Do you want to go and see? He is now in Wang's underground court."
Vanessa is very clear about how optimistic her husband is about this young Chinese, and even his attitude towards Wang Zhizhi is to a large extent his love for Wang Shipeng.
Kobe has mentioned Wang Shipeng more than once in the conversation between the couple at night.He said that if it wasn't for Wang Shipeng's conflict with his position, and the Chicagoans would definitely not be willing to trade Wang.Otherwise, he must ask the team to trade Wang.
Wang Shipeng shook his head quickly after hearing Vanessa's words: "Forget it, I don't want to seek abuse, and I'm not a paranoid like him."
This is not the first time he has been in contact with Kobe. Wang Shipeng is very aware of Kobe's hobbies.When he comes to Los Angeles, he treats all the friends he likes, not young models in the clubhouse, but heads-up on the basketball court.
McGrady has complained about Kobe's unique hobby more than once.After all, he is probably the one who enjoys Kobe's hospitality the most.
"This is not possible, Wang, I have been waiting for this day for a long time. The media said that you are a robot that has been returned to the factory for an upgrade. I have been waiting to see it."
Kobe Bryant suddenly appeared, startling everyone who was chatting.
Seeing the fighting spirit in Kobe's eyes, Wang Shipeng smiled wryly and shook his head. Sure enough, the boss is still the same boss.
He had no choice but to stand up: "Generally, do you have a suitable jersey?" Wang Shipeng wanted to save it again, and he would play against the Clippers in the evening.
There was a special smile on Kobe's rather handsome face: "I knew you were going to do this, so I prepared it for you." After speaking, Kobe threw a Bulls jersey number 27 to Wang Shipeng.
Sighing helplessly, Wang Shipeng patted Yan Qingwu's little head beside him, stood up and put on his jersey.
Wang Zhizhi was very interested. One of the two was the boss of his professional team, and the other was a teammate of the national team.He really wanted to know who was stronger when the two were singled out.
If it was Wang Shipeng during the Olympic Games, Wang Zhizhi would never have such an idea.He knew very well that Wang Shipeng's offensive power at that time depended largely on his off-ball ability.The ability to hold the ball one-on-one is not too strong, let alone facing Kobe Bryant, who may be the strongest single-handed player in active service.
But just like what Kobe said, Wang Shipeng's progress in returning to the factory and upgrading in the past month or so is very eye-catching.The powerful attack power of 30+ per game is not just for fun.
So when he saw that Wang Shipeng had followed Kobe off the field, he stood up and said, "Would you like to go and see, beauties."
Yan Qingwu was the first to nod her head. Although she fell in love with a basketball player, her understanding of basketball is still in the accumulation stage, so she is very interested in everything.Not to mention the one-on-one fight between his own man and No. 1 in the league.
Seeing Wang Zhizhi bring the three girls down, the corners of Wang Shipeng's mouth twitched.He originally thought about letting Kobe win, so as to save energy for the night game.
It's not that Wang Shipeng is so arrogant that he feels that he is not yet 27 years old and is at the peak of his career. It is Kobe who is the shooting guard ceiling after Jordan.
But heads-up, Wang Shipeng is not without the ability to win a round.
He still clearly remembers that once in his rookie season, he and Kobe participated in a sponsor event together, and they both went to the casino city of Las Vegas.
Before the event, Kobe invited him to an event, that is, a heads-up game.
It happened that he was lucky that time, and he happened to win with 21 goals.
As a result, Kobe went crazy. He dragged him to singles for ten rounds in a row, and Kobe didn't spare him until he won three consecutive games.
That time made Wang Shipeng so tired that he almost collapsed on the basketball court and couldn't get up.
He has no doubt that if he wins Kobe this time, the consequences will be more serious.After all, no man wants to embarrass himself in front of his woman.
But looking at Yan Qingwu's pretty face, Wang Shipeng's gums hurt, and he instantly felt that Wang Zhizhi was disgusting.
"you first"
After doing warm-up exercises, Kobe threw the basketball to Wang Shipeng.
Wang Shipeng received the ball, pulled the ball behind him with one hand, and said to Kobe: "Let's talk about it first, I still have a game tonight. No matter whether I win or lose, I will only play three rounds."
Kobe was naturally unwilling, he had long wanted to have a hearty contest with Wang Shipeng.Where is three rounds enough?
But Wang Shipeng's attitude is also very firm, he is not a physical monster like Kobe.Whether it is before or now, his physical fitness is a shortcoming.Although it is not like Yao who can only maintain a stable output for 35 to 10 minutes, it is difficult to play more than [-] minutes.
Even in January after his physical fitness was upgraded, his average playing time was only 38 minutes per game.
At this time, Vanessa said: "Kobe, Wang still has a game tonight, don't mess around. Just have fun. If you are really energetic, come to me at night."
Kobe, who was originally aggressive, felt a chill when he heard Vanessa's words, and nodded quickly.
Wang Shipeng looked at Vanessa, who was full of flair on the sidelines, and Kobe in front of him.I feel very surprised, no way, Kobe, you are not yet 30 years old.
Kobe is such a smart person, you can tell what Wang Shipeng is thinking just by looking at Wang Shipeng's expression.Immediately became angry from embarrassment.
Wang Shipeng saw that Kobe was pushing hard, so he quickly leaned on Kobe with his shoulder, then turned around Kobe and rushed to the basket.
Seeing that he was broken through, Kobe gritted his teeth and stopped the forward momentum, turned around and rushed to Wang Shipeng who was about to layup.
Of course Wang Shipeng knew that Kobe was chasing after him, but he did not rush.After feeling that Kobe had jumped up, he pulled the ball back before Kobe blocked the block.
"It's amazing!" Song Yang on the sidelines exclaimed when he saw that Wang Shipeng had tricked Kobe.
Song Yang has lived in Los Angeles for many years and has always been a basketball fan.After Wang Zhizhi went to the Lakers, as a member of the Lakers wives, he has a better understanding of the strength of the Lakers' boss Kobe.
But the matter is not over yet, Kobe is Kobe after all, and he saw that he was played by Wang Shipeng.Not flustered, taking advantage of Wang Shipeng's gap to adjust the rhythm, he jumped again and just nailed the ball Wang Shipeng shot to the backboard.
"Wonderful!" Wang Zhizhi applauded from the sidelines, not only for Kobe's defense, but also for Wang Shipeng's offense.
That is to say, Kobe, for another person, Wang Shipeng must have scored this goal.
Wang Shipeng also shook his head helplessly: "Kobe, you have improved again." Wang Shipeng really admires the boss, and the extent of this improvement is really surprising.
The average person's basketball skills are almost at their peak within three years of entering the league, and then it is when they eat their money or even decline.A few people can delay the time of decline, such people are star players.This is why rookie contracts are generally a 3+1 model.
But Kobe is already 27 years old this year, it's really unreasonable to be able to increase the ball like this.And Wang Shipeng clearly remembers that after two years, Kobe also went to apprentice Olajuwon to learn fantasy footsteps in order to improve his post-up singles ability.Then by the way, he became one of Olajuwon's most proud disciples.
Kobe curled his lips. Once he stood on the court, he was a black mamba spitting out a message: "Boy, I just accidentally lost my mind. You won't have such a good chance soon."
Wang Shipeng's expression also became serious. He knew that if he didn't want to lose too badly, he must not relax in the slightest when facing Kobe.
Kobe started it. At this time, Kobe has not yet evolved from version 8 on the 1.0th to version 24 on the 2.0th.The style of play relies more on the body, but it does not mean good defense.
I saw Kobe did two Sam Golds in a row, taking advantage of Wang Shipeng's center of gravity and rushing into the inside line quickly.
It is widely rumored in the league that McGrady has the fastest first step in the league.Bryant, on the other hand, has the fastest first three steps in the league.
Once he is allowed to charge, within three steps, most of the defenders will be thrown away by him, and Wang Shipeng is no exception.
But Wang Shipeng had long been prepared for this situation.Immediately turned around and chased after him, he knew that Kobe must not be allowed to dunk casually.
Wang Shipeng's current speed is also very good, so he quickly caught up with Kobe near the three-second zone.
At this time, Kobe had already jumped up and felt that Wang Shipeng was chasing him.Kobe quickly twisted his waist in the air, and then used the strength of his waist and abdomen to pull the bar suddenly, avoiding Wang Shipeng's block.
Watching Kobe do a future Ross-esque extreme pull-up.Wang Zhizhi smacked his lips enviously, and secretly said to Song Yang: "Look at Kobe's waist, Vanessa is really blessed."
Originally, this was just a whisper between Wang Zhizhi and his wife, but he forgot the truth that walls have ears.
Vanessa originally wanted to run over to talk to Song Yang, and she had a good impression of this intellectual Chinese woman.Unfortunately, when she heard Wang Zhizhi's words, Vanessa, who was young but had been here for several years, blushed at that time.
However, foreign women are still very open. If this is put in China, I am afraid that Wang Zhizhi will already be scolded as a hooligan.
Next, Wang Shipeng and Kobe were on the right track.It was a bit difficult for Kobe to break through, but he scored four goals in a row by relying on a fadeaway jumper.
However, Wang Shipeng's defense is still good, and he finally defended the fifth ball.
Wang Shipeng, who was in good shape, suddenly became excited. He threw all the messy ideas of saving energy that he had planned at the beginning, and he just wanted to have a good fight.
