Chapter 1 Under Kobe's Tutelage

Under Kobe's tutelage, Su Feng's repertoire of skills quickly expanded with two new god-like moves.

In the words of many Kobe-haters from his previous life, Su Feng was now a seasoned little blacksmith...

Of course, in Su Feng's opinion, the playing style that best suited him was that of Klay Thompson, later nicknamed "Buddha" by fans.

Klay's off-ball style, in this environment with hC (hereafter hAndCheCk will be referred to as hC) rules, was not only practical but also highly efficient.

Although he hadn't yet played in an American high school basketball league, Su Feng, who sparred with Kobe every day, believed that he was definitely an expert in defense in the American high school basketball scene...

Sure enough, the dog thief Xu Xu didn't deceive me.

Stacking armor; taking hits is an essential experience for every young warrior in their growth stage.

...

That day, looking at his attribute panel and the 140,000 missed-shot points he had accumulated in the past two days, Su Feng fell into contemplation.

"Host: Su Feng, Nationality: Chinese, Age: 16 years old, Height: 189 cm, Weight: 74.5 kg..."

"Host's current ability value (nBA second-round pick level), Close-range shooting: 38 [64], Mid-range shooting: 70 [79], Three-point shooting: 70 [80].

Passing: 10 [45], Vision: 15 [50], Ball control: 38 [50].

Lateral movement: 70 [88], One-on-one marking: 71 [91], Steals: 41 [81].

Jumping: 40 [71], Strength: 33 [45], Rebounding: 18 [30]."

After more than two months of exploration, Su Feng had completely figured out the system's routines.

First, after the system was upgraded to version 6.0, and Su Feng's potential value conversion was completed, Su Feng's current potential value was as displayed in the [ ].

Second, in addition to using missed-shot points to upgrade potential values, special attributes like strength required Su Feng to have a certain weight before they would increase accordingly after upgrading.

Previously, Su Feng's strength attribute had been stuck for a long time until Su Feng's weight increased by 3.5kg, and then it increased a little.

In addition, after the potential value displayed on the system was maxed out, Su Feng could also obtain extra upgrades through special events.

For example, Su Feng's painful defensive attributes.

"How great would it be if these attributes were added to offense?" Su Feng sighed.

Because of his daily one-on-ones with Kobe, Su Feng often heard the system say out of the blue, "Congratulations, host, your one-on-one marking potential has additionally increased by +1!"

"Sure enough, Klay's path is the one that suits me!" Su Feng thought.

As a keyboard data analyst and a 2k old player, in order to achieve his grand life goal of entering the nBA, becoming a basketball star, and marrying a rich and beautiful woman, Su Feng knew that he had to hold tight to all the resources he could use.

"Actually, thinking about it the other way, this system is quite scientific."

"Because even if I hadn't met Kobe, as long as I trained diligently and earnestly, I could also have my current ability value before my sophomore or junior year..."

"..."

Cough...

"The next system upgrade requires 15 million missed-shot points...

It sounds scary, but as long as I have Kobe as my cheat, I should be able to upgrade the system to 7.0 before graduating from high school."

I have to say, the feeling of upgrading with a bug is really unreal...

Cough... Let's get down to business.

Looking at the remaining 140,000 missed-shot points in his hand, Su Feng decided to wait until school started and then draw a wave first.

Because in version 6.0, his currently equipped special skills and currently equipped badges were still empty!

Su Feng didn't believe it. When the time came, he would wash his face properly and worship Senior Bai. Could he really fail?

...

Bang, clang, clang.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was August 23rd.

That day was Kobe's 16th birthday, and Su Feng had prepared a birthday gift for Kobe early in the morning.

An Anfernee Hardaway poster.

As Su Feng expected, Kobe liked the birthday gift he gave him very much.

Because Kobe's idol at this time was the famous Penny Hardaway.

"Haha, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely get Anfernee to sign this poster!" Kobe said excitedly to Su Feng.

Su Feng: "..."

Uh, no way?

If Su Feng remembered correctly, a tragedy had happened to young Kobe in his previous life...

That was when Kobe, who was still in high school at the time, went to Hardaway to ask for an autograph, and as a result...

He was rejected!

Cough...

It shouldn't be so coincidental...

Right?

...

After celebrating Kobe's 16th birthday, in addition to immersing himself in the joyful sounds of missed shots with Kobe these days, Su Feng also had an extra task every night of making international long-distance calls to his parents to report that he was safe.

Regarding his parents in this life, Su Feng was previously most worried about how to get along with them.

After all, he really couldn't immediately call "strangers" Dad and Mom.

Fortunately, from the memories of "Su Feng," Su Feng learned that this guy was a troublemaking rich second generation. If they hadn't had no other choice, his parents wouldn't have sent him to the United States...

I have to say, being able to come to the United States to study in high school in the 90s, "Su Feng" really had a family environment that was the envy of ordinary people.

However, what made Su Feng speechless was that this guy's heart was so big that he didn't even know what his parents did for a living...

From his memories, Su Feng only collected the keywords "selling shoes," "sports products," and "Wenzhou."

"Well, after all, it's a karma, and avoiding it is unavoidable. If I have the opportunity in the future, I'll help them earn money they can't spend in several lifetimes..."

In fact, after transmigrating, Su Feng recorded every penny that "Su Feng" spent in the United States.

For no other reason than to live in this world with a clear conscience.

Your parents, I will take care of them.

Because of the personality of "Su Feng," the rich second generation, Su Feng was much more relaxed in his international long-distance calls with his parents, and Su Feng's parents' instructions to Su Feng were also very simple...

That was: Live well!

"Ah, the hearts of parents all over the world." Unconsciously, Su Feng also thought of his parents in his previous life.

For a time, Su Feng felt a little sad.

...

"By the way, Su, you said before that the school you're attending is Nefaria, right?" Fortunately, after seeing Kobe, Su Feng's mood immediately improved.

After all, this was a living missed-shot points machine... cough, a living idol!

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Su Feng asked as he handed Kobe a sandwich.

"Nothing, I was just asking."

Unfortunately, Kobe's smiling face had already exposed his inner world, but Su Feng didn't realize for a moment why Kobe would ask himself this question.

"Good luck, salute to senior year!" Seeing that Su Feng was suspicious, Kobe immediately changed the subject.

"Salute to senior year..." However, Kobe's action of changing the subject made Su Feng even more confused.

After all, in the United States, there's nothing to salute about senior year...

Because there's still senior year five...

...

On September 5th, after a nearly 3-month vacation, Su Feng's senior year began.

And Su Feng quickly learned why Kobe would suddenly ask about the school he was in a few days ago...

Because with the end of the vacation, the American high school basketball league, namely the nsAA, was about to begin.

The nsAA competition is different from the nCAA. The nsAA is conducted on a state-by-state basis, with the leagues in Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky being the most brutal.

Su Feng's Nefaria High School belongs to the state of Pennsylvania, and before the start of each Pennsylvania season, high schools in the same city organize friendly matches.

The nature of this friendly match is the same as the nBA preseason, which is to remind everyone to be prepared to welcome the cruel new season.

And unfortunately, Su Feng's Nefaria High School's opponent in the friendly match this year is Kobe's Lower Merion High School...

After treating Su Feng as a good friend, Kobe is very concerned about this friendly match, because after more than three months of getting along, Kobe believes that Su Feng can definitely serve as the starter for Nefaria High School.

After all, Nefaria High School was slaughtered by Lower Merion High School by a full 58 points in the state-level competition last year...

Therefore, Kobe also regards this friendly match as the first contest between himself and Su Feng in a formal game.

Although Su Feng has not yet won Kobe in one-on-one matches, Kobe has been cautious in the recent one-on-one matches, and it's hard to say that Su Feng might have a chance to beat him.

You must know that since entering August, Kobe has canceled the rule that he cannot block Su Feng in one-on-one matches.

emmmmmm, no matter how good the relationship is, Kobe will never forget the verbal abuse that Su Feng, this little bitch, gave him before.

Don't ask, that's just how a Virgo holds grudges.

"It's just... it seems that this friendly match has nothing to do with me." Su Feng thought with a wry smile.

Uh... wait.

It seems there is a little connection.

Because Su Feng is really a member of the Nefaria High School basketball team.

Um...

Um.

Although the Nefaria High School basketball team is not strong, in order to encourage students to actively participate in clubs and sports activities, it also has a first team, a second team, a third team, and...

A reserve team.

And Su Feng happens to be a member of this reserve team.

Obviously, "Su Feng" is also a basketball enthusiast, but this guy's level is just so-so, so when he confidently thought that he could make a name for himself in the United States, enter the nBA, become a basketball star, and marry a rich and beautiful woman, God directly gave him a bolt from the blue.

From his memories, Su Feng learned that although the reserve team can also be regarded as a member of the school basketball team, the actual treatment is very different from that of the first team, which can play games.

For no other reason than that, in addition to being able to use the equipment in the school's gymnasium for free, the members of this reserve team are not much different in nature from the cheerleaders.

They are usually responsible for handing towels, handing water glasses, and shouting compliments to the first team players...

In short...

There is no chance to play in the game.

"Forget it, let's go take a look first... After all, apart from Kobe, I can say that I know nothing about American high school basketball."

Su Feng felt that Kobe was probably going to waste his time.

Because when Nefaria plays a friendly match with Lower Merion, he will be at most a cheerleader...
