Chapter 283 Peak Kobe Bryant
As soon as Kobe finished speaking, Tianyang immediately thought of Kuzma and Hart.
These two are the only two college players besides Ingram who are still fresh in his memory. Jordan Bell used to be one of them. After all, he was uncomfortable on defense at the beginning, but now his offensive level has been greatly improved. , as Kobe said, with all the skills, Jordan Bell's defense has become mediocre in his eyes.
"I do have two candidates, which may be available at the end of the first round or in the second round. However, the team does not have a first-round pick for 17. It may be more difficult and it is very easy to be intercepted." Tianyang said.
Kobe waved his hand, "That's not something you should worry about. You should be like a scout, report the players you like, and leave other matters to the general manager. Tell me, who do you like?"
"University of Utah's forward Kyle Kuzma and Villanova University's Josh Hart, both of them are relatively strong in combat. If you work a little bit, you should have a chance." Tianyang blurted out.
"Why do you think they fell to the end of the first round or the second round?" Bryant asked.
"I am old, and I am not an epic monster like Duncan. The scouts are generally not good-looking. Moreover, Kuzma's defense is relatively poor. Josh Hart is relatively ordinary among the guards and lacks highlights." Tianyang explained.
Kobe thought for a while after hearing the words, "How about this, I will hold a training camp with you, invite the two of them over to have a look, and by the way, look at the strength of other players, don't just put all your eggs in one basket."
Do training camp with Kobe?
It is indeed a good idea. It can not only further examine Kuzma and Hart, but also mix them with a group of rookies to avoid attracting the attention of other teams.
Tianyang nodded solemnly, "Okay, I'll take care of it, and you can just attend when the time comes."
Kobe patted his sagging stomach and sighed, "Since I'm going to attend the training camp, I have to lose the fat first, otherwise I'll be blown away by a rookie at that time, it would be too shameful. I have to find a place to practice." practice."
Tianyang shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, pointing to the floor, "Is there any more convenient place than here? Just after you retired, the Lakers opened this training base, and you can just enjoy it."
Kobe curled his lips and looked around, "It is indeed much more advanced than our original venue. Take me to the weight room. I want to do a group of aerobics first. How do you do physical training now?"
The two chatted while walking, and Kobe went from persuading Tianyang to practice less to joining in training together. If Kupchak was present to witness the whole process, he might be too depressed to speak.
……
After the day's training, Tianyang and Kobe had a light meal together, and it was already 8 o'clock when they got home.
After watching "Game of Thrones" on the sofa with Farage for a while, Tianyang decided to settle the matter at hand first.
With a phone call, he called Cui Ren and Plum, who lived next door, to their home, and explained the reason for the incident.
After listening to Tianyang's introduction, Cui Ren took over the topic and said: "The actual work of running a training camp is very simple, just renting venues and issuing notices. The difficulty lies in handling the relationship between the media, agents, and players, which requires a delicate balance. , Which player is not good enough, I hope the video tape will not be leaked, which player is very good, I hope the organizer will spread it more, how to respond to the media’s questions about fees, etc., it is not a public relations expert who can’t handle it at all.”
Cui Ren's worries made Tianyang hear a thing, that is, there were rumors in the circle that when LeBron held a training camp, a rookie dunked on LeBron's head. Afterwards, the staff of LeBron's training camp forcibly confiscated the scene Dozens of photographers' tapes.
This matter has always been one of LeBron's black spots, and it was gradually no one mentioned it after many years.
"Let Aaron handle it. Wasn't he in charge of your business contract negotiation before? He should have a lot of experience in this area. Speaking of which, where is he now?" Plum asked.
Tianyang shook his head slightly, "He has gone back to China, and he will arrive in the United States after a while."
"That's a little troublesome, why don't you ask the Lakers PR department to help you?" Cui Ren suggested.
The main purpose of holding the training camp is to help determine the strength of Kyle Kuzma and Hart. It is reasonable to ask John Black to come forward, and the Buss brothers and sisters will not object, but Black is the Lakers public relations director. , There is a little bit, the feeling of cannonballing mosquitoes.
Of course, the most serious problem is that other teams may see their intentions.
After thinking about the joints, Tianyang shook his head and said no.
When the three of them were frowning and crying, Farage, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly said, "Please ask the girl who introduced you to the Achilles tendon repair surgery, she is very good at dealing with this kind of thing."
"Who?" Tianyang asked subconsciously, and then realized, "You mean Jiang Rulan?"
"That's right, I've followed her on Instagram. She has planned many large-scale events and never had any problems. She just happened to be on vacation recently, so she said there was nothing wrong with her," Farage explained.
Tianyang thought for a while, and it seemed to be possible, but Plum and Cui Ren kept winking at him.
"You two's eyes are uncomfortable? Is the air humidifier off?" Tianyang asked doubtfully.
Cui Ren stopped blinking, and quickly wrote in the notebook: "Brother, this is a proposition! A woman's mind is very complicated, and I feel that she is testing your attitude!"
Seeing this sentence, Tianyang couldn't help laughing out loud. With Farage's character, he definitely wouldn't think that way.
Besides, judging a woman's attitude towards another woman can probably be distinguished from the pronouns.
Just now, Farage used the fresher 'that girl' instead of the greasy 'that woman'. Based on this alone, Tianyang can be sure that Farage did not deliberately try.
"It's really okay, your suggestion is very good." Tianyang immediately agreed.
Afterwards, the three of them successively determined the training camp fee standard, venue, who to invite, registration methods and other contents one by one, and finally compiled them together and compiled them into electronic documents.
After sorting out the documents, Tianyang called Jiang Rulan, who immediately agreed.
Of course, the asking price is not low, 10% of the entire training camp income, and it is said to be a friendly price.
……
Three days later, when the 2017 Finals kicked off, Tianyang and Kobe announced on Twitter at the same time.
"Tianyang & Kobe Bryant's 8000-day training camp is officially held. Players who plan to participate in the draft this year and next year will be accepted for registration. The total fee will be 4 US dollars. They will train for [-] hours a day. Registration will be accepted in installments. In order to demonstrate better training effects, the training camp will invite a team of The first batch of students participate for free. In the training camp, you not only receive the personal guidance of the quadruple-double player Tianyang, but also feel the singles threat of the peak Kobe. In addition, there are Hall of Fame players such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magician, and James Worthy. , don’t need to worry about location.”
As soon as the announcement was made, discussions continued on Twitter.
"On average, $800 a day is the same price as Jordan's training camp."
"I can tell, this is a blatant challenge to Jordan, Kobe doesn't want to lose!"
"I noticed that there is a paragraph saying that you can feel the singles threat of the peak Kobe, am I wrong?"
"No, you read that right. I went to Kobe's twitter to verify. He is training crazily. He promises to return to his playing figure on the day of the training camp."
The routine is arranged, can you see it?
