1997-98 season, the Lakers reached the western conference finals, and this series lost to its old rival Jazz in the first three games. 1On May 24th, 998, the fourth game was still held in Los Angeles. Although the Lakers resisted stubbornly, the Jazz controlled the game from beginning to end. Four minutes before the end of the game, the Jazz led by eight points, and Kobe came on again. A beautiful dribble behind him glided easily past Hornacek, stopping the jumper near the free throw line. The arc of the ball is good, but it is a hollow ball. Kobe sighed, Jazz launched a successful fast break, and Lakers 10 fell behind. After serving at the baseline, Kobe Bryant caught the ball and dribbled it twice. O 'Neal had already run out of the basket and asked him for the ball, but Kobe didn't seem to see it at all. A dazzling group of dribbles flashed past the defenders and threw the ball to the basket. Beautiful posture, but still a hollow ball. Only this time, the teammate grabbed the rebound and the ball returned to Kobe. After Kobe got the ball, he didn't think about it. He rose from the ground about 2 meters away from the three-point line, and his movements were very stretching. Under the watchful eyes of 50,000 spectators, the ball fell directly into the hands of jazz center Foster under the basket. Three air balloons, three mysterious air balloons. In this way, the Lakers' final counterattack, all the struggles, were in the hands of Kobe Bryant. 92-96, the Lakers lost the fourth game and went out in a mess with a total score of 0-4. The day after losing 4-0 to Jazz, Kobe Bryant came to the arena early and practiced for three hours in three shooting positions last night. Failure is painful, but the young and stubborn Kobe did not bow his head. After training, he walked into the Lakers' gym again. He doesn't want to waste a minute. Kobe stubbornly builds himself according to his own training plan, and his training strategy is far more cruel than most players, even reaching unimaginable levels. ESPN first revealed Kobe's training methods on June 28th, 2002, and its training intensity caused an uproar in the sports world. You know, Kobe has persisted in this devil's road for eight years. Kobe has long used a "cruel" devil training method, that is, "6-6-6" training method. Only "hell" can describe the training intensity of this method. What is the "6-6-6" training method? If interpreted in different categories, it can be decomposed into "6 hours a day, 6 stages at a time, 6 days a week". During the game, Kobe Bryant and his teammates participated in the team training of the Lakers. During the summer vacation, when other players were engaged in various leisure activities, Kobe embarked on the "6-6-6" course rain or shine. Kobe's training theory is very simple: according to the plan, shape the individual's body, strength, technology and other aspects, and exchange the perseverance beyond ordinary people for dominance on the court. Kobe's hard training is very rare among active players, and his personal trainer Joe Capone has the most say in it. He arrives at Kobe's private training ground at 7: 00 every morning and starts working for two hours. During this period, the training courses include: box jumping and jumping (the height of each box is different), 30-yard sprint, accelerated running, lifting barbells with maximum exercise, etc. This is only the first step, and then Kobe needs to squat 400 times and lie down 300 times before it is over. Such high-intensity continuous training, even for professional players, is a level that challenges the limit of physical strength, but all this has achieved remarkable results in the summer vacation of 2002. During that holiday, Kobe used this training method to strengthen the muscle thickness of his arms and shoulders. At the beginning of the official NBA training camp, the media released photos of Kobe Bryant, and many fans questioned the photographer's shooting level because Kobe's head looked much smaller in the photos. Later, it was found that it was just the muscle lines caused by the strength of Kobe's shoulders and upper limbs, and his head seemed a little small.
