Before the 1999-2000 season, the Lakers' roster made minor adjustments: 32-year-old Glenn Rice was still the third ace. With no money to recruit big forward Charles Okari, they had to put the 36-year-old Lakers' championship-winning veteran A .C. Green asked out. The Zen master also recruited the bulls' old guard Ron Harper, who won three consecutive titles. Although he is 35 years old, the "Zen master" likes high defenders. Harper at 198 cm, Bryant at 198 cm, Rick Fox at 201 cm — well, it's vaguely similar to the periphery of Bulls Harper, Jordan, and Pippen. Because the "Zen Master" wants to replicate the Bulls' perimeter defense:
"Defensively, we have to focus on putting pressure on the ball. We have to make mistakes for our opponents. ”
Finally, there is the old acquaintance of "Sharks" and Kobe Bryant: Brian Shaw, who wore a magic jersey and played in the Finals together. It had been a decade since Bryant had first met him and insisted on playing one-on-one with him.
The first training session after the arrival of the "Zen Master". He walked to the center of the stadium and waved his hand to gather the players. Everyone looked at him and was silent. The "Zen Master" says:
"Do you know your own problem?"
silent.
"You're driving at 65 miles (1 mile = 1.609344 km/h), listening to music, your phone ringing, you're eating McDonald's burgers, you're cleaning up ketchup on your shirt. You look up and you see a red light in front of you, and you break through. That's it: there are too many things in your life to be too complicated. ”
This is the opening statement of "Zen Master".
