December 23, 2015, 23:00 sharp.

Staples Center, Los Angeles, Lakers locker room.

"You guys played like wimps tonight! Why weren't you a little aggressive?"

Team boss Kobe Bryant looked around the locker room and couldn't help but curse.

Many young players, including Russell and Randall, just lowered their heads and said nothing. They have long been accustomed to Kobe's temper.

Half an hour ago, they were beaten at home by the Thunder team led by Durant and Westbrook, and the score was 120-85.

They were beaten bloody for 35 minutes.

Kobe Bryant also performed poorly in this campaign, shooting 7 of 22 from the field, a rather low shooting percentage.

Of course, this has a lot to do with his age and injuries.

If nothing else, this is his last season as a professional player.

In an inconspicuous corner of the locker room, Lin Tian was sitting on a chair thinking about life.

He has traveled to this world for two full hours.

Two hours ago, he was just an ordinary coder, and now, he is a substitute player for the NBA's super-rich Lakers.

Through the memory of this body, he learned that he used to be a member of the South Bay Lakers.

Not long into the season, the team's forward Brandon Bass announced that he was out for the season due to a torn cruciate ligament.

The Lakers, who were short of major generals, could only recall Lin Tian from their affiliated team, the Nanwan Lakers, and signed a ten-day short contract with him.

In today's game, in the final garbage time, Lin Tian got a chance to play.

But he had never seen such a big battle before he had just traveled through time. Just the noise from the more than 10,000 spectators at the scene made him nervous.

So this scene happened just now. Lin Tian made two mistakes in a row. He played for less than 1 minute and was replaced by head coach Byron Scott under the boos of the audience.

The first NBA game in his life ended with 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists and 2 turnovers.

Logically speaking, my physical fitness is not bad.

Height of 2.05 meters, wingspan of 2.15 meters, and weight of 100kg.

Apart from being a little thinner, the other shortcomings are not obvious.

The reason for this problem is entirely because he didn't have time to adapt to his body.

Lin Tian sighed. He suddenly realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the locker room. When he raised his head, he saw Kobe's eagle-like eyes staring directly at him.

Facing this superstar with over 100 million fans around the world at close range, Lin Tian was under a lot of pressure.

"Hey! Rookie! Didn't you sleep last night? Why did you get the ball intercepted twice in a row within 1 minute!"

"Wake up! This is not the Development League! The team didn't sign you to give points to the opponent!" Kobe stood up and said, "Let's go! Practice with me for a while!"

Rookies generally do not have a high status in the team. Even if they are the No. 1 pick, they are often asked by veterans to carry bags or buy snacks.

Lin Tian looked at head coach Byron Scott, who nodded to him.

Randall, Russell and others cast sympathetic looks at Lin Tian.

Although the two of them are considered the cornerstones of the team's future, they are often educated by Kobe.

Fortunately, the team has a new member, and their lives may be a little easier in the future.

As for veterans like Hibbert, they just smiled and said nothing.

Went to the training hall with Kobe Bryant. When Lin Tian touched the ball, he felt as if his DNA was moving.

Playing basketball is like an innate ability of this body.

In the huge training hall, other Lakers players and Scott came.

The team boss took the initiative to practice extra time, and it was not easy for them to clock out.

There are four basketball stands in the training hall, and Kobe owns one of them, and there is a ball boy who is always responsible for helping him pick up the ball.

After shooting two three-pointers, Kobe said to Lin Tian: "Rookie! Come on! Let me teach you how to play in the NBA!"

He actually wanted to challenge Lin Tian to a duel.

Facing the gloating looks of his teammates, Lin Tian walked up to Kobe.

Nick Young walked to the sidelines with a smile and said to Russell next to him: "I guess Kobe will beat him 3:1."

Russell grinned: "You think too highly of that rookie. Every time Kobe loses, he will find someone to vent his anger on. This rookie is going to be in trouble."

Nick frowned: "Man! Aren't you a rookie too?"

The relationship between the two of them was still very friendly at this time.

Here, Kobe passed the ball to Lin Tian: "You serve first!"

The moment he took the basketball, a mechanical voice sounded in Lin Tian's mind: "Ding! The host has successfully bound to the [God-level Imitation] system. Just imitate any player's basketball moves, celebrations or quotes.

Get all the abilities of the player in his prime! Players currently unlocked: Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Tony Allen.

Sure enough! Where there is time travel, there is a system!

Before he could be happy, Lin Tian started playing basketball.

Kobe clapped his hands on the wooden floor and his face became serious. He wanted to vent the anger caused by today's defeat on this young man!

Although Kobe is over 37 years old, his defensive ability cannot be underestimated.

Lin Tian took a step back when dribbling, and then started dribbling.

Iverson is most famous for crossover. Although Lin Tian's body was rarely used before, it can still be used, but it is not so natural and skillful.

He crossed his hands and kept dribbling the ball under his crotch, with a wide range. As he dribbled, the system voice sounded: "Ding! Successfully imitated Iverson! The host obtains all the abilities of peak Iverson!"

The next moment, Lin Tian felt as if some kind of energy had been injected into his body!

All the moves that Iverson was good at, even every small detail, were deeply implanted in his mind, as if they had become his innate abilities.

Kobe noticed that Lin Tian was in a daze, his face turned cold, and he suddenly stretched out his long hand to cut the ball.

Seeing that the basketball was about to be cut off by Kobe, Lin Tian came to his senses, suddenly dribbled the ball with his hips, and skillfully dodged it.

Then he turned around, passed Kobe, rushed to the basket, and jumped high with the ball.

"boom!"

The basketball was smashed into the basket by Lin Tian with both hands, and Kobe was still stunned in place.

Other Lakers players who were watching the scene also gathered around.

Head coach Byron Scott also touched his beard and looked at Lin Tian in surprise.

Although Kobe's defense is not as good as before, he has made the All-Defensive First Team 9 times and his defensive experience is still there.

Last season, Kobe averaged 1.3 steals per game, and no one dared to ignore his defense.

But this rookie actually defeated Kobe so easily!

Nick Young said in surprise: "This rookie is so flexible? I seemed to see the shadow of Iverson in his breakthrough just now."
Chapter completed!
