"Thank you. Hello, everyone. I'm Chen Xi—Chris Chen."
"Okay, Chris. As an active player and a four-time MVP winner, your understanding of the game must surpass that of at least 95% of professionals worldwide. So I wanted to ask: have you watched my show before?"
"Of course. With basketball videos this professional, I think the vast majority of people in the industry, as well as fans, would watch them. They can learn a great deal from them."
"Professional—that was your first impression of Detail?"
"Of course. The advice you gave in those videos can be quite enlightening even for many active players. But why haven't you made an episode specifically analyzing my footage? I've been looking forward to that."
"Hahaha, I will, but you'll have to wait for a later episode. Please look forward to it. Now then, back to the point. It's time to get down to business."
As Kobe finished speaking, the footage switched from the two men chatting on the couch to the interface of video software on a computer.
The court shown on screen was clearly the Brooklyn Nets' home arena.
At the same time, the upper-right corner thoughtfully displayed the source of the footage: "2022–2023 Season, NBA Finals, Golden State Warriors vs. Brooklyn Nets, Game 5."
"The Finals Game 5 from last season? Why not use Game 7 directly?"
"Don't worry about that. We'll talk about Game 7 when we get the chance next time."
"Fine~~ It's your show, so you make the call."
Chen shrugged, then turned his attention back to the video.
It was worth noting that Kobe did not simply play regular game footage and give a brief chronological analysis. Instead, he had already edited together individual possessions that best illustrated his points, then gave more targeted explanations before adding post-production edits
