NBA bench saves national team

Kobe nodded in agreement.

Qin Feng also breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, first avoid Kobe from taking a private jet, and then he will remind Kobe.

No matter how.

We must do our best to avoid Kobe's untimely death.

......

the next day.

Kobe published his retirement letter "Dear Basketball" on the "Player Forum", clearly stating that he will choose to retire after finishing this season.

Once the letter was released, it immediately sparked heated discussions around the world.

Kobe is leaving.

Countless fans feel sad, but know that things will eventually develop like this.

After all, Kobe is also a human being, not a god.

But all fans did not expect Kobe to retire so early. Judging from his current competitive state, it will not be a problem to play for another two or three years!

And most importantly.

The current lineup of the Lakers is a proper championship lineup.

As long as Kobe continues to play, he can continue to win championships. In this case, it is very possible to surpass Bill Russell and become the player with the most championships in NBA history.

But even under such a huge temptation, Kobe chose to retire.

In his words, if he does not win the championship as a core player, then this championship is meaningless to him.

The fans couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

As expected of Kobe, his self-esteem is really very strong, and he is completely unwilling to be defeated by young players on the court.

In the case of heated discussions around the world.

The Lakers game has also attracted the attention of a larger number of fans. After all, Kobe has played in this league for 20 years.

Whether it is Komi, Kohei, or other basketball fans, they are all used to the presence of Kobe in the NBA.

Now that Kobe suddenly chooses to retire, this makes many fans feel empty in their hearts.

If I want to watch Kobe play again, only the last half of the season is left!

So we must seize this last opportunity to appreciate Kobe's last performance in the NBA arena.

With this in mind, all the Lakers' game tickets also began to skyrocket.

Regardless of whether it is a home game or an away game, as long as there is a Lakers game, the tickets have at least doubled.

And some weak teams have less than 50% attendance at home games, but because they have to play against the Lakers, tickets are also hard to find.

The atmosphere became sad.

For the entire basketball world, Kobe's announcement of his retirement is undoubtedly a sad thing.

under such a circumstance.

The regular season continues.

And Kobe also started his final retirement tour.

After Kobe announced his retirement, the Lakers faced the Pacers at home in their first game.

The star of this team, Paul George, is a die-hard Kobe fan.

before the game starts.

Paul George specifically ran to the Lakers locker room to chat with Kobe for a while.

When the main game started, Paul George tried his best to perform well and let his idol see his growth.

He wants to bid farewell to the idol by defeating the idol.

In such a mood, Paul George played extra hard.

And his state is also very good. In less than 4 minutes at the beginning of the game, he made 5 of 4 shots from the field and 3 of 2 three-pointers, scoring 10 points in a row.

Such a bursting performance also gave the Pacers a lead.

The entire Lakers team seemed to be affected by Kobe's retirement. All players became slow and couldn't find an offensive state at all.

Even Qin Feng, who is as stable as an old dog, is rarely inaccurate.

See here.

Kobe stood up with firm eyes.

He's been chasing victory his entire career, no matter what kind of game he's chasing.

This is Kobe, almost paranoid about the desire to win.

Corvo first made a three-pointer from the outside, then broke into the penalty area and caused a foul, completed two free throws, and then made another mid-range shot.

Individuals scored 7 points in a row.

The audience chanted "mvp"!

Many fans were in tears.

Kobe's performance is still so amazing!

But this kind of game is less than one game!

soon.

The first quarter is over.

34: 29.

Under the explosion of Kobe at the last moment, the Lakers were only 5 points behind.

A short inter-session break passed.

Enter the second quarter of the game.

Both sides are entering the rotation stage.

The Lakers' backup champions began to work hard and scored consecutive shots.

The score was caught up in the blink of an eye.

beep.

The Pacers head coach called a timeout and then replaced Paul George.

Today's Pacers are not the team that dominated the Eastern Conference two or three years ago.

After a short period of brilliance, the Pacers traded away all the starting five tigers for reconstruction, leaving only the head star Paul George.

So this season's Pacers are just a weak team hovering on the edge of the playoffs.

When the Lakers slightly increased the intensity of both offense and defense, the Pacers were a little bit overwhelmed.

Simply they also have Paul George.

After returning from the timeout, George continued to maintain a fiery state and succeeded in consecutive offenses.

Under his outstanding performance, the Pacers also once narrowed the score to 3 points.

See here.

Lakers coach Cole also replaced Qin Feng, but continued to let Kobe rest off the court.

Because he has communicated with the team management.

In addition to continuing to chase the championship this season, it is also necessary to ensure that Kobe's retirement tour can end perfectly.

Therefore, Kobe's health must be guaranteed.

If Bryant were injured in the middle, then the retirement tour would be completely pointless.

in this way.

Cole began to control Kobe's playing time to minimize the risk of Kobe's injury.

But the fans at the scene were a little unhappy.

They just came to see Kobe, is it okay if Kobe doesn't play now?

I don't know which fan was the first to shout the slogan, and then the audience followed suit, shouting loudly: "We want Kobe".

The sound was loud and deafening.

resignedly.

Cole can only change Kobe to the court.

When Kobe took off his training uniform and walked towards the statistics stand, the audience burst into cheers.

Kobe's status at the Staples Center is evident.

Even though Qin Feng has now become the boss of this team and the best player in NBA history, compared with Kobe's status in Los Angeles, it is still a bit worse.

After Kobe came back, the morale of the Lakers was also boosted.

The players were full of fighting spirit and played wonderful offenses consecutively, opening the score easily.

Halftime is over.

55: 69.

The Lakers took a 13-point lead.

After a long intermission.

The second half of the game begins.

The Lakers offensive round.

After Kobe received a pass from Qin Feng at the top of the arc, he raised his hand and threw an open three-pointer.

The basketball arced high.

Swish.

Hollow into the network!

The audience cheered like thunder.

Kobe also had a happy smile on his face.

The entire audience was amazed.

But they rarely see Kobe showing such a smile in the game.

That is a relieved smile! !
