NBA: Sharks cry, can't stand this center

Chapter 280 Kobe's One-Man Team

The game was over, Wei Guo and James shook hands and hugged.

This situation...

Seemingly needing to say a few words of encouragement, Wei Guo patted James on the back, "Come on! The future is yours..."

This is not a false statement.

James participated in the draft as a high school student. He has not yet reached his prime, and Wei Guo is preparing to retire in the summer of 08.

After Wei Guo retired, if there were no new monsters born in the league, the future must belong to James.

"Brother, I will work hard." James was encouraged.

Post-match interviews are also important.

The reporter asked James with a microphone, "The Cavaliers almost won the game. You scored 39 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists today. You are only one assist away from getting a triple-double. It's really a pity."

"If you lose a game, any statistics are beyond doubt."

"Wei Guo played in the third quarter, did he put pressure on the Cavaliers?"

"Yes..."

There is nothing to deny, James said: "He is the strongest player in the league, and we are all catching up with him. All we can do is to narrow the gap with him."

Interview with the Suns after the game.

The reporter also asked why Wei Guo came off the bench. Gentry told the truth that Wei Guo lacked company for his parents because of his playing. He will give his parents more company this season. Accidental defenders will always come off the bench.

The media reporters sighed for a while.

League No.1 Weiguo is still a dutiful son, and the media reporters also expressed their understanding of his approach.

certainly...

When asked about Wei Guo's career plan, Wei Guo said that he will not retire prematurely, nor will he play until he is 40 years old, and he will not retire until his old arms and legs can't move.

This approach is similar to Jordan.

Jordan once chose to retire to play baseball after three consecutive championships. However, Jordan's basketball talent is top-notch, and he can only be regarded as a second-rate player in baseball. Later, due to various reasons and team calls, Jordan returned to the league after two years of absence. .

Media reporters are not worried about Wei Guo...Take Jordan as an example, Wei Guo retired at his peak, who knows if he will return to the league?

and...

Wei Guozhen retired to give other players a chance.

If Jordan hadn't retired back then, the Bulls might have achieved the miracle of eight consecutive championships, which would not have given other players a chance at all.

......

The news that Wei Guo will play as a substitute this season spread like wildfire.

The reason is to give parents more company...

This is a reason that can be accepted by everyone, especially the stars of the league have praised Wei Guo.

The most praised players are the players who have been suppressed by Wei Guo in the past three years, such as Garnett, Duncan, Big Ben, McGrady... the existence of Wei Guo, these three years made them miss the most valuable players in the regular season, The best defensive player, the leader in scoring, rebounding, and blocks...even some players missed a round of defense because of defending the country.

Wei Guo played as a substitute, which also gave them a chance.

can imagine...

After all, this is an extremely competitive season.

Every player will fight for honor, and everyone wants to have a few honorable honors after retiring, otherwise they won't even be able to enter the Hall of Fame.

Jordan is strong...

However, Jordan still gave the players of the same period a lot of life.

Even in the 90s when Jordan was the strongest, he didn't win all the honors like Wei Guo, but he just kept his opponents from getting the championship.

......

The Suns won two games in a row.

Gentry is worried. He can see that the Suns' offense is very smooth, which will definitely create a small ball storm in the league!

The Suns can even get the league's first record.

But...

In the past two years, whether in the Rockets or the Nets, which of the teams coached by Gentry has a regular record that is not the first in the league?

Gentry is no longer satisfied with the regular season. His goal is the championship, but one of the characteristics of the championship team is both offense and defense. The Suns' defense is really not good.

Physical talent determines Nash's defense. When encountering some offensive guards, it is difficult for Nash to limit them.

As for the other players...

The defense is barely qualified.

However, D'Antoni does not have a very mature defensive system, and the 7-second offensive bombardment tactics often have two players running to the frontcourt after the opponent shoots, even in the game against the Cavaliers. The situation where the players are not more than half of the field when defending.

The protection for rebounds is not in place.

The connection between Nash and his teammates is extremely exciting. Whether it is Stoudemire, Marion, Richardson, Johnson, Nash always has a way to help them score easily.

but...

The connection between Nash and Wei Guo is the most efficient.

Because of this, when the Suns attack, Wei Guo often rushes to the front, which makes Wei Guo unable to distract and protect rebounds.

In this game against the Cavaliers, Wei Guo grabbed 7 rebounds, but he had 3 offensive rebounds. Only Marion had the number of rebounds in double figures in the Suns, and Marion grabbed 13 rebounds.

......

Two days later, the Suns ushered in a challenge from the Lakers at home.

The OK combination disintegrated, O'Neal went to the East to join the Heat, Malone retired, Payton also transferred, and even Phil Jackson, the backbone of the Lakers, also dismissed get out of class. Now the Lakers only have Kobe as a superstar.

so...

The Lakers have suffered a two-game losing streak in the regular season.

The two-game losing streak of the Lakers against the two-game winning streak of the Suns, Kobe Bryant can prove himself?

Starting lineup for this game:

Lakers: Outkins, Kobe, Butler, Odom, Mihm

Suns: Nash, Richardson, Johnson, Marion, Stoudemire

Knowing that Wei Guo's parents came back to the game, Kobe also brought gifts for the two elders. He gave Wei Dafa a bottle of red wine and Wei Guo's mother a limited bag.

The total value is tens of thousands of dollars.

The gift is not expensive, but it was carefully selected by Kobe.

This little incident caused a wave of gift-giving in the league. Until the end of the regular season, as long as the Suns played at home, Wei Dafa and his wife would receive gifts from many players. When the two left country m, Wei Dafabet specially arranges a private plane to bring the gifts back to China.

The main players are ready to play.

Gentry exhorted: "Defend Kobe and you can win the game!"

Not just the Suns, any team that meets the Lakers this season, Kobe is their key defensive target, except for the year when they were teammates with Wei Guo... Iverson also received the same treatment.
