The Lakers' Dallas Mavericks' game was still away on December 15.

The Lakers team conducted targeted pre-match training on December 13.

The Dallas Mavericks were last year's runner-up, and their strength this season is still not to be underestimated because they have only lost two games so far.

But the Lakers also beat the New Orleans Hornets, and their morale is in high spirits. Moreover, Kobe will make a comeback in the next game.

So in this strong conversation, they still want to win this game.

Of course, the focus of the Zen master's arrangement was on Nowitzki, the big man from Germany, who was their absolute tactical core.

Only by limiting Nowitzki can the Dallas Mavericks be truly limited.

"Lu, the next game will be a test for you," the Zen master told Lu Yusheng. "First of all, they must have carefully studied our last game against the New Orleans Hornets and will definitely have targeted defense against you. Moreover, their point guard Devin Harris is not only fast, but also has a long wingspan. I think you should understand what I mean."

Lu Yusheng nodded. Of course, he understood that the Zen master was referring to Devin Harris, who would form a natural defense against his low post back-to-body tactics.

After all, Devin Harris not only has speed, but also has an exaggerated wingspan.

This will definitely have a great limitation on Lu Yusheng's low-post back-body tactics.

"It doesn't matter, don't worry." Kobe said indifferently, "I'm afraid they won't target Lu. As long as their tactical focus is directed at Lu, everything will be fine."

Lu Yusheng smiled. This guy was so confident. Of course, Kobe was not blindly confident. For him, this is indeed the case.

In the past games, he was the one who was strictly guarded by the opponent, and all the tactics would be directed against him.

Even in this case, Kobe can still score high scores continuously.

If the Dallas Mavericks' defensive focus and attention are really focused on Lu Yusheng, then for Kobe, it would be spring that is coming.

"I will make them pay a heavy price." Kobe said confidently.

The Zen master shook his head helplessly, "Please, they were the teams that reached the finals last season, and Coach Avery Johnson is not the kind of idiot coach. He will definitely have various ways to limit you."

But Kobe didn't care about this, "We just need to play our defense well. There is no need to worry about the offense."

Lu Yusheng admires Kobe's confidence very much. Of course, for him, he also has this confidence.

After all, in the last game, Lu Yusheng was also targeted against the New Orleans Hornets, who had significantly stronger defense, but he did not resolve them all in the end.

Besides, in this game, Kobe was present to share the firepower for him. No matter how Dallas people are, they will never let Kobe go. If they really target Lu Yusheng, Kobe will definitely pay a heavy price.

And if their defensive focus is directed at Kobe, then Lu Yusheng can be like a fish in water, display his organizational ability and revitalize the team.

In other words, the Dallas Mavericks must choose one to drink the two bottles of poison Lu Yusheng and Kobe.

They absolutely cannot have both!

For the Lakers, they just need to find a way to defend Nowitzki.

After the targeted training, Lu Yusheng pulled Kobe to conduct special training on his back-to-body singles as usual.

If another star had been trained by a rookie like this, he would have been impatient for a long time.

But Kobe is different, he seems to enjoy this kind of special training.

Anyway, even if Lu Yusheng doesn't pull him to train in special training, he will definitely have to keep practicing more.

Among them, Lu Yusheng discovered a terrible characteristic of Kobe.

physical strength.

This guy is really invincible. He trains with Lu Yusheng and does the same routine training. When Lu Yusheng feels exhausted, the guy can't see any fatigue.

Lu Yusheng thought to himself that he didn't admit that he was talented. Just kidding, how many people in the league can have the physical strength like him.

Lu Yusheng speculated that physical strength is probably an important factor in why a superstar can become a superstar.

But in order to achieve results as soon as possible and grow up as soon as possible, Lu Yusheng could only grit his teeth and persevere and waste time with Kobe.

I don't believe it anymore. Do you really have no idea how tired you are?

Lu Yusheng decided to fight until Kobe was tired and stopped.

But the more persisted, the more desperate Lu Yusheng felt.

After a group of training, this guy only saw sweat flowing continuously, but he could not see any fatigue at all.

But Lu Yusheng can no longer hold on. Every step he runs and shoots a basket, he basically feels like his physical strength reaches its limit.

Finally, Kobe took the initiative to stop.

"I think it's all today." Kobe said, "Yes, I think your physical strength and condition today seem to be much better than before. It seems that the recent extra training is very effective, and we must continue to persevere in the future."

Lu Yusheng:...

You don't know, I'm persisting with my life.

Fortunately, Kobe finally stopped calling, Lu Yusheng sat on the ground, feeling dizzy and had no strength to stand up again.

Kobe cleaned up, sent out the two trainers, and said to Lu Yusheng, "It's very late. Go back and eat something, have a good sleep, and continue tomorrow morning."

Lu Yusheng was stunned, "But, aren't you going to fly to Dallas tomorrow afternoon?"

Kobe: "Yes, isn't that afternoon? Is there any impact?"

He got up and left.

"Where are you going?" Lu Yusheng asked when he saw that he didn't seem to be heading towards the locker room.

"I'll go and practice a few sets of strength," Kobe said without looking back. "I haven't played a game for a long time. I have to practice more strength, otherwise I'll be easily injured after returning."

Lu Yusheng:...

He really wanted to know whether this guy's body was flesh and blood.

This is too perverted.

...

The next morning, Lu Yusheng rushed out one morning. After he went there, he found that Kobe was indeed earlier than him and was already sweating profusely.

Lu Yusheng doubted whether this guy didn't leave the training hall last night.

It was another morning of sweating.

However, this time Kobe took the initiative to stop, "Okay, we go to Dallas in the afternoon and need the whole team to train. I think we can practice it this morning."

Lu Yusheng thought to himself, okay, it’s been more than three hours, is this called a simple practice?

In the afternoon, Lu Yusheng flew to Dallas with the whole team, but the team's training was placed on the next morning.

After training the next morning, the Zen master asked everyone to go back to the hotel and have a good sleep.

Lu Yusheng has been training with Kobe in the past two days and is really tiring.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when I woke up.

But it was still early to go to the American Route Center gymnasium, so he lay on the bed and browsed his cell phone for a while.

There are news about Lu Yusheng everywhere.

And unlike the previous news that he was questioned, the current news is basically praising Lu Yusheng.

It seems that the record can indeed break any doubts.

Because you can never question a person who leads the team to win.

At first, Lu Yusheng would be excited to see the news that flattered him. After all, he had never felt this feeling of being sought after by thousands of people.

But now, for Lu Yusheng, these things are basically numb.

Moreover, he also discovered that American sports media and journalists basically rarely have their own independent views. Most of them follow the trend and have no brains. When a person leads a team to win in a row, everything he does is right, and it is also delicious to fart.

But this is not a good thing. Lu Yusheng knew very well that once he was no longer magical, he would immediately be bombarded by all kinds of followers.

Among these news, Lu Yusheng finally saw a news with different opinions.

That was an interview with Dallas Mavericks owner Cuban.

And the interview time was this morning.

When asked by reporters about Lu Yusheng, who is in full swing in the league recently, Cuban said, "I think you media are really a bit too exaggerated. How many years have you been in the NBA league? Who hasn't had a highlight moment? Last year's Kobe's performance that shocked the past and the present has never seen you brag like this. A rookie, as for? You are so exaggerating."

When the reporter saw that Cuban's words were exactly what they needed, he hurriedly asked, "So, do you think Lu Yusheng is a bit too much touted, right? Do you think his strength is far from enough to be famous now, right?"

"Of course," Cuban said without any concealment, "In fact, I've seen his games and I don't deny that he played well, but I think his strength is far from as strong as you are now. To be honest, we have too many players that can match him, but you haven't reported them.

I think it's just because he's in the Lakers and in the spotlight, if he gets a little result, you'll be yelled at it, but I think you really should look at him objectively."

The reporter also said, "But he did lead the Lakers to achieve a very good record at the beginning of this season, especially in several games, where Kobe was not there. They are now the number one in the West. Doesn't this tell his strength?"

"Please, I admit the role of stars in the team, but the record of a team is far from saying how strong a person is. Was Kobe not strong enough last season? Didn't the Lakers go too far in the playoffs, so don't exaggerate their personal energy too much,

I think the reason why the Lakers can achieve such results this season is mainly because their players are in good overall condition this season, especially their inside line, Kwame Brown, Bynum and Odom have grown very quickly. This is a very important reason. It is definitely not how powerful that kid is, it is definitely not as you said, it is that kid who brought magical magic to the Lakers, absolutely not."

"So, Mr. Cuban, since you said that, let's give an example. If the Dallas Mavericks were not the 28th pick, but the 26th pick, would you choose Lu Yusheng?" the reporter asked again.

"Oh, please," Cuban smiled, "The difference between the 26th pick and the 28th pick is not big. In fact, I don't think our rookie this year, Morris Egg is much worse than Lu Yusheng. Everyone needs opportunities, especially the rookie. It just happens that the Lakers' No. 1 position is not very good, so I gave Lu Yusheng a chance. I don't think so. Although there are many geniuses who play low, in most cases, players with low picks are indeed not very good. Think about it, how many players with 26th picks in NBA history have played?"

"So, what you mean is that Lu Yusheng's performance is just a flash in the pan, and he will eventually return to the level he should have at the No. 26 show, right?"
