You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 307 Winning the World

Jackson took off his glasses, his vision blurred, for the best, he didn't want to see anyone walking into his office again.

Perhaps, the victor will come in and show off right away.

He has won the support of the whole world, why not come to him and say something?
Jackson now has no excuse to let Weixia play the sixth man.

He waited, taking off his glasses, even if he saw someone coming in, it was a blurry figure.

However, he waited for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes. He just didn't come.

Does he still want to wait for me to find him?Tell him personally that he is now the starter for the Lakers?
Jackson, who is experienced in infighting, just can't think of people in the best way.

He stood up, walked out of the office, and looked at the field.

Wei Xia is easy to recognize.Although he's worth close to $2000 million, he only has three workout outfits, and they're all black.

Black sports shorts, signed sneakers from Kobe—because his own signature sneakers haven’t been released—other than that, there are no other decorations.

Jackson found him immediately.

Jackson saw him working on the top three.

Accompanied by his training is his trainer.A month ago, in order to improve the quality of training, he came to the office and asked if he could bring his own trainer in.Wei Xia at that time was full of respect for him.

Now, he probably has no respect for the head coach in his heart.

Who screwed it up?Jackson thought.

Initially, Jackson thought Wesha was someone for Jim Buss, and he was.Can Bass' vision pick any good players?He doesn't believe it.After a few games, he had to believe.He hoped that Wei Xia would cut off contact with little Bass, but he said that it was his private matter.

Well, he is determined to work hand in hand with little Bass, so naturally he should be given some color.

Wei Xia resisted a little at first, but later, he focused on training and competition, and showed a resigned attitude towards his "ravages".

After that, Wei Xia's value as the sixth man became more and more obvious. Countless reporters asked him why he didn't mention this promising young man as the starter.

He only thought that Wei Xia was putting pressure on him through Bass Jr.

But the longer he coached him, the more Jackson knew about Wei Xia's personality and his nature.He's not the type to play tricks behind his back.He's pure, like Tim Duncan.

Jackson's arrogance would blind him if the players weren't against him.

Now that the whole world is against him, he has no reason to self-righteously think that everything is a conspiracy by Wei Xia and little Bass.

If it was really the fault of Bass Jr., Kobe would never talk to him, and the reaction from the outside world would not be so strong.

Watching Wei Xia focus on shooting training, Jackson found that he had taken the initiative to push a young man who could have created a lot of value to his opposite.

Words are too pale.

Jackson turned and went back to the office.

Half an hour later, he called the team and briefly talked about the preparations for the game that night.

"About the Suns, their characteristics, dead spots, and our chances of winning have been analyzed countless times. I believe you have all kept them in mind. The series has reached the sixth game, and the true strength of both sides has been clearly demonstrated. They have no secrets for us. We are not for them."

"We still have options and changes."

"After serious consideration, I decided to change the original game plan and adjust our starting lineup."

coming soon.

The Kobes looked at Wei Xia excitedly.

"Tonight's game——" Jackson's eyes fell on Wei Xia, "Wish, you will replace Smash in the starting game!"

Waiting for 87 games until today, Wei Xia has won the recognition of fans, media, opponents, teammates, and coaching staff in various senses.

He made a compromise from an elderly man who was getting into an office fight.

No matter where the Lakers go next, for Wei Xia, his rookie season was extremely successful!What a success!
"I will do my best!" Wei Xia responded calmly.

After Jackson announced his decision, he reminded the players not to push themselves too hard and walk away.

As soon as he turned around, Wei Xia's teammates burst into cheers and screams that resounded through the stadium.

Through the applause of those people, Jackson once again confirmed that Wish has indeed won the support of everyone.

While everyone was happy for Wei Xia, some people poured cold water on him.

The most suitable person to do this is Kobe: "Starting, you got it! But if you screw up the game, Phil still has a reason to let you go back to the bench, don't be too happy too soon."

"That's right, it's mine, and I'll definitely take it back!"

Smush Parker's rhetoric jazzed up the otherwise serious atmosphere.

Originally, what Kobe said, everyone was still worried that Wei Xia's starting lineup would be unstable.But when he thought about it, his competitor was Parker, so he was so worried! Wish can't play worse than him even if he plays with one hand.

Poor Smush Parker was so despised by his teammates.

Afterwards, everyone practiced at a low intensity for another half an hour.

In a blink of an eye, the time came to 17:00 in the afternoon.

Training time was over, but the players didn't leave.

At first, Odom, Cook, and Dwayne Jones sat under the basket and chatted.

Wei Xia joined in later.

Every time someone on the team wants to engage in multiplayer sports, Kobe wants to get involved to prove that he is very close to the people and has no airs.

As soon as Kobe came, the others thought that there was something important going on here, so they all came closer and sat down.

All of a sudden, the 12 players who entered the active list of the night sat together.

"Suddenly there are so many people here, I'm really not used to it." Odom was surrounded by people, and he was under a lot of pressure.

"It's rare to get together, we have to do something." Kobe aimed at the ball in the corner, "How about a paid heads-up match?"

Have you ever seen O'Neal propose to a teammate to play a one-on-one game with a paid low post?

If you want money, just say it straight, why bother with such twists and turns.

Everyone refused, but Kobe failed.

Wei Xia made a suggestion. He asked the 12 people present to tell a short story about themselves, so as to enhance mutual understanding.

Things like this fresh and refined without spending money were unanimously approved by everyone, so the story will begin.

Kobe rushed to say it first, because he is the TO1 of the Lakers.

Bryant shared one of the reasons why he chose No. 8.

As we all know, Kobe Bryant often had to move in his childhood because his father Bryant became a homeless man. Later, his father went to Milan, Italy to play.He took this opportunity to get to know Mike D'Antoni, the Milan team's all-time scoring champion.Yes, it is the current head coach of the Suns.

D'Antoni was a second-round pick in 1973.

The NBA is frustrated, but Europe is proud. He has been in the European basketball world for many years and is known for his gorgeous game style. He created the European version of "Show Moment" with Kobe's father "Jelly Bean" Joe Bryant.Childhood Kobe was attracted by D'Antoni wearing No. 8.After joining the NBA, he originally wanted to wear No. 33 in high school, but the No. 33 of the Lakers belonged to the great skyhook, so he chose No. 8.

When Kobe finished his story.

Everyone was surprised, with a look of "Oh, there is such an allusion".

The madman was talking about the story that he almost strangled Carlesimo, was unilaterally declared invalid by the team, and finally let the light of justice shine on the earth again through a lawsuit.

To everyone's disappointment, he gave few details about his plans to strangle Carlesimo.

Brian Russell even hid the story at the bottom of the box.He didn't say whether Jordan pushed him before taking the final shot in 1998.

He said a funny thing about his name.

For a long time, people in Salt Lake City couldn't figure out whether his name was Bryon or Byron, and one day he got mad and told everyone to call him "B. ROSS."

Luke Wharton is also hilarious.

His story is about his name and why his father, the legendary Bill Wharton, took it.

The story needs to go back to 29 years ago.

In the 1977 Finals, Wharton teammate Maurice Lucas (Maurice Lucas PF/C) stood up for teammate Bob Gross (Bob Gross SF) and started an imperial city PK with 76ers center "Chocolate Bomb" Dawkins (Chocolate Thunder C).Although the 76ers won that game, none of the 76ers' teammates stood up to help Dawkins like Lucas.So he destroyed the 76ers' locker room, and the team's chemical reaction fell apart. The Blazers won four consecutive games and won the championship.

Lucas thus earned the nickname "The Law Enforcer".Lucas, one of Walton's favorite teammates, always referred to him as "Luke."Probably because he liked this teammate so much, so he decided to use this nickname as the name of little Walton.

It makes me take you like a brother and you take me like a son,
Although there are not many interesting stories, telling each other about themselves can undoubtedly deepen the cohesion of the team.

When it was time to end, Russell played the role of veteran: "Let me say a few more words."

"I hope that in tonight's game, we don't have the idea of ​​​​the next game. Yes, we do have the next game, but if the Suns chase two games in a row, and the seventh game goes to their home court, they will have a lot of advantages. Moreover, they will not have any burden. We are an old team, and I can definitely say that we cannot bear the pressure of the seventh game. The series must end in six games!"
