At the beginning of the death entanglement, Curry followed me to slam dunk

Chapter 234 Kobe?He has to thank Du Zhe for not killing him!

"Du Zhe, height 2 meters, weight... 05 kilograms?!"

The assistant teacher on the side stammered out the number.

130 kilograms, which is more than 286 pounds. Not to mention outside players, there are probably not many insiders in the NBA who can reach this weight.

If this weight is placed on an average outside player, it will be a matter of time before he is reimbursed if he does not lose weight.

Only Du Zhe can control such a physique after continuously improving his basic qualifications.

In fact, Du Zhe can also increase his weight to a heavier weight, but doing so will break the existing balance and greatly reduce his speed and agility, which is not worth the gain.

130 kilograms, this is also the maximum weight Du Zhe can achieve while maintaining his current speed.

"Du... um... ahem... are you a little heavy..."

Old Nelson hesitated, seeming to be trying hard to organize his words.

There is nothing wrong with Du Zhe, but this weight is indeed a bit exaggerated. Anyone who knows something about basketball will inevitably worry about whether his knees and ankles can bear this burden.

It can be said that Du Zhe indulges himself. After gaining weight, his figure has not become bloated, and his muscle separation has further improved. It is obvious that he has worked hard.

"286 pounds! Good guy, he's 20 pounds heavier than me. Can he still run and jump?"

Although O'Neal Jr. is also called O'Neal, he obviously does not have the terrifying tonnage of the big shark.

After hearing about Du Zhe's exaggerated weight, he was also shocked and speechless.

"Haha, why can't you run and jump? Didn't you just say that you failed in the World Championships with Du Zhe?" David Lee teased O'Neal in a low voice.

But the volume was controlled very well, so only the two of them could hear it.

"Cough, cough..." Little O'Neal coughed twice awkwardly.

On the other side, James looked at Du Zhe with a bit of confusion.

Du Zhe's physique is already strong enough, so why should he gain weight?

You must know that substantial weight gain has a great impact on speed and jumping, and may even lead to an increase in injuries.

He really couldn't understand why Du Zhe did this.

"Did this kid gain weight specifically to play in the post because I'm here?"

James thought for a moment and came to a reliable conclusion.

"It seems that this kid is quite sensible. If he helps me well, I can let him be Pippen in the future."

Thinking of this, his mood instantly improved a lot.

James, who is immersed in his own world, feels that the prospects for this Warriors trip are simply great.

And his own road to becoming a god seemed to be smooth.

…………

After measuring the height and weight, the next step is the bench press event.

The NBA physical test uses a barbell with a total weight of 185 pounds, about 84 kilograms. The recording standard is how many times you can do in a single set.

Basically, most NBA players can press this level of bench press. The difference is nothing more than how many times they can press it.

Stephen Curry led the way and was the first to test.

“1、2、3……14、15！”

"Steph Curry bench presses 15 pounds 185 times!"

After setting up the barbell, Curry showed off his muscles excitedly, saying that he still had energy left, and was obviously very satisfied with his performance.

Several players on the sidelines who had just joined the Warriors were slightly surprised to see Curry easily complete 15 bench presses.

The average bench press data for NBA rookies in the physical test is generally around 7 or 8 times. Curry's bench press times in a single set are far above the average.

What's more, the current Currie looks immature, is not tall, and his arms are not very developed. He looks like an ordinary short guard. This contrast makes him even more hidden.

But Du Zhe had long been accustomed to this.

He knew that Curry's upper body strength was pretty good, and he could complete a single set of 10 bench presses during the rookie physical test.

After this season, Curry has continued to gain muscle and strengthen under his influence. It is completely normal for it to have improved to this level now.

Then each player began to take turns after warming up for testing.

Except for a few strong men, most players can't even bench press more times than Curry.

James, on the other hand, easily pushed more than 20 times, which attracted everyone's admiration.

When it was Du Zhe's turn, everyone held their breath, wanting to see if the strength of this 130-kilogram monster was as amazing as its weight.

84 kg, this level of bench press is not even a warm-up for Du Zhe.

After pushing 30 times in one breath like playing, Du Zhe felt a little boring and stopped.

This relaxed and happy look made everyone onlookers speechless.

You must know that for players with a relatively long wingspan like Du Zhe, the bench press is more strenuous than ordinary people.

A long-arm monster like Durant couldn't even push a 185-pound barbell during the rookie physical test. In addition to his own weak strength, his long arms also hindered him a lot.

On the contrary, players like Griffin use much less effort when bench pressing.

Of course this is not a good thing.

To be honest, the fact that Curry can bench press so many times is partly due to the fact that his wingspan is not long enough.

But Du Zhe's wingspan is also quite terrifying. Under such circumstances, he can still complete so many bench presses in a single group. You can imagine how terrible his overall strength is.

"Du, the maximum weight you can push is 400 pounds!"

Players who did something good on the sidelines couldn't help but boo.

James sneered a little when he heard this.

400 pounds, which is 180 kilograms, he can push it with all his strength.

"Is pushing 400 pounds too little? Can I give you 500 pounds?" Du Zhe asked with a smile.

"Hahahaha!" The stadium was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Most of the people in the court were veterans who had played professional basketball for many years. Knowing that Du Zhe, as the boss, might just be a casual joke, they were ready to just laugh and let the matter go.

But after they finished laughing, everyone discovered that Du Zhe was seriously asking the staff to lay out the barbell plates one by one.

"This guy won't come for real!"

"500 pounds, that's almost 230 kilograms. Even among professional fitness people, being able to push this weight is very impressive!"

The smiles on the faces of the players who were still making noise just now have long since disappeared, leaving only dubious surprise.

"By the way, are there any players in the NBA who have pushed 500 pounds?"

Some people want to find one or two examples from familiar players to convince themselves.

"I don't know. I've only heard that Ben seems to be able to push more than 200 kilograms. Among retired players, Malone should also have this possibility..."

"If we count further... maybe the ancient beast Chamberlain can do it too!"

"Chamberlain..." Mentioning this thunderous name, all the players present were eclipsed.

Although decades have passed, this ancient legend is still very popular among players.This legend has left one unsurpassed record after another for the NBA, as well as one legendary story after another.

20000 women, 600 pounds of bench press... these amazing numbers all come from Chamberlain.

Years later, although many people thought this was just a joke when Chamberlain was bragging.

But when they thought of his incredible records, everyone couldn't help but murmur in their hearts: "What if the bullshit he boasted about is as true as those outrageous records?"

But to be fair, be it Ben, Malone, or Chamberlain, their glorious history only exists in rumors.

Today, Du Zhe wanted to let them see with their own eyes the limits of NBA players' strength.

Everyone's excitement was mixed with a hint of nervousness.

"Du, stop making trouble, we have to continue the physical test." As a coach, Nelson stepped forward to smooth things over.

Although Du Zhe's body does look strong, he is not afraid of anything but the worst. He doesn't want his top general to be injured for such a nonsensical reason during the physical test before the start of the season.

"Don't worry, coach, it won't take too much time."

"Add, add, add two more slices!"

Du Zhe was full of confidence while still asking the staff to continue adding weight plates.

Although his performance in the playoffs shocked the entire league last season, the new teammates who just joined this season did not have the opportunity to experience Du Zhe's terror in the playoffs.

As the boss, Du Zhe must show his hands and give them a little shock.

Of course, his main purpose of doing this is actually to give James a beating, so that the other party will give up and stop causing trouble with the Warriors.

All the barbell plates were added, and Du Zhe also lay down.

Old Nelson quickly signaled with his eyes and asked the two trainers on the side to go over and protect him.

"Get up!" Du Zhe shouted loudly.

Then, in front of everyone's eyes, he lifted the 500-pound barbell forcefully.

"Hiss!" Everyone present took a breath.

The barbell is raised high and then gently lowered.

"Okay!" I don't know who it was, but couldn't help shouting "ok".

But it wasn't over yet. The barbell that had just been put down was lifted again.

Repeat this four times.

"hiss!!!"

This time no one stood up to cheer, and there was only the sound of gasps in the venue.

Being able to bench press 500 pounds is barely within the understanding of these NBA players.

But Du Zhe can bench press 500 pounds four times in one breath, which means that his single maximum bench press weight must be higher than 500 pounds.

There are also people who regularly exercise among the players at the scene. A rough conversion shows an astonishing number - 550 pounds. Du Zhe's single maximum bench press weight is at least 550 pounds, which is 250 kilograms!

"Even if you are a professional strongman, I'm afraid it's nothing more than this!"

"Is it true that Du Zhe participated in the World Championships in the summer, not a weightlifting competition?"

"I finally understand why Du Zhe dares to be so aggressive on the court..."

"Yeah, I really don't understand where Kobe got the courage last season to dare to challenge such a monster..."

"Haha, if Kobe sees this scene, he will probably thank Du Zhe for not killing him."

"Indeed, if Brother Zhe's elbow had used a lot of force, Kobe's nose would probably not be broken, but his brain would be easily removed by the elbow!"

After Du Zhe sat up with a calm look on his face, everyone came back to their senses and started talking in low voices.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Du Zhe clapped his hands and interrupted everyone's whispering.

Then he glanced at Nelson: "Coach, I've wasted a lot of time. Do you think we should continue?"

"Ah! Oh... let's keep going! Keep going!"

Still immersed in shock, Old Nelson woke up from a dream.

He has been a player and coach in the NBA for decades, and this is the first time he has seen an unparalleled monster like Du Zhe.

The physical test continued, but the aftermath of Du Zhe's small show of skill had obviously not dissipated yet.

Players still discuss with each other from time to time about the crushing power Du Zhe showed just now.

"I think Du Zhe just pushed a 500-pound horse four times in a row with ease. Maybe he was hiding his strength."

"I think so too. I guess 550 pounds is not his limit weight. He might really be able to bench press 600 pounds like Chamberlain said!"

"Oh my god! Is this still a basketball player..."

Several players who were waiting in line for physical tests gathered together and whispered.

James on the side snorted lightly, and his heart became a little sour.

Du Zhe's behavior just now showed off his boss look, which made James very unhappy.

Especially the scene where Du Zhe just slapped his hands and asked all the players to quiet down, it stung James' fragile heart even more.

When he was with the Cavaliers, he was always the boss and always got the upper hand.

Now that the Warriors are living under someone else's roof, it feels really uncomfortable.

This also makes his desire to regain his position as the team leader more intense, but for James, this matter still needs to be considered in the long term.

James felt aggrieved and felt like he was holding a fire in his chest. In the next physical test, he changed his carelessness and began to compete with Du Zhe overtly and covertly.

Naturally, such small actions could not escape the eyes of head coach Nelson, but he did not interfere too much.

As a professional player, it is normal to be competitive. Appropriate competition can also promote the progress of players, which is also a good thing in Nelson's opinion.

Next, run up and touch the height event.

Curry was still the first to rush forward, accelerating, sprinting, and leaping with all his might.

"3 meters 38!"

Curry shook his head, obviously not meeting his expectations.

Seeing that his disciple was a little downcast, Old Nelson encouraged him: "Not bad Stephen, there is improvement compared to last season!"

…………

The remaining players completed their run-ups one after another, leaving only Du Zhe and James.

James took a deep breath and glanced at Du Zhe from the corner of his eye.

"This time I will let you see what top physical talent is!" James secretly said in his heart.

In the strength competition just now, he fell behind.

However, he firmly believes that Du Zhe's strange strength comes largely from his weight of 130 kilograms.

Now he was trying to jump. He didn't believe that Du Zhe, who was more than ten kilograms heavier than him, could still crush him!
