Chapter 492 Inescapable Injuries

During this period of time, Xiang Chu has seen some talented teams take the wrong path, and some players may form wrong ideas, which is not good for their careers.

There are many young players in the team, and Xiang Chu does not want them to be affected.

Of course, the Nuggets didn't have such a thing. He felt something when he saw some situations.

They want to be the best team, not just record, but also let the players in the team move in the right direction.

Some players agree with his words, and some players don't feel deeply, but it doesn't matter. The team he wants will definitely pay attention to it. If someone disagrees, he will definitely have no future in the Nuggets.

What a strong core can bring to the team, the answer is everything, whether it is money or honor.

That's why Xiang Chu has a special status in the world, especially when he is in a small ball market, and the boss is not brain-dead.

Now is the information society, the boss is less and less mentally retarded, as long as he has enough strength, he will have enough status.

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

The Lakers are scumbags, so while giving Kobe Bryant a retiring performance, they can cultivate new players, and they can also compete for the next lottery. Losing the game has no effect on them.

But if the team can win, Kobe will definitely be more happy, there will always be some unlucky people who will be killed by them.

Maybe it's not unlucky, some teams are eager to lose now.

The Nuggets definitely don't want to lose, so they have to take it seriously even if they face underdogs.

Xiang Chu talked a lot with Kobe before the game, and Kobe also lamented that it would be perfect if he could always partner with Xiang Chu in the later stages of his career, but unfortunately there is no such thing.

Unlike the last game, this time Kobe came up with full firepower.

He doesn't have any idea of ​​helping to train young people now, so let's talk about it after doing it.

How Kobe wants to play depends entirely on his mood. He may have restrained his expectations for the season before, but now he understands that the Lakers have no hope this season, and he hopes to retire in a prosperous way.

Since he is on tour, it is definitely not acceptable to score a few points in each show, that is not his style.

The Nuggets didn't double-team Kobe, they just tried to disconnect Kobe from his teammates. Even if Kobe can still score now, his physical strength will not be able to keep up in the end, just consume him.

And the biggest problem for the Lakers now is defense. Now Lu Wei is playing the starter, and Russell is on the bench instead. It shows that the Lakers are now mainly playing with Kobe, and training rookies is ranked second.

Kobe showed the ability to score in double figures in a single quarter, but the Lakers did not play well overall, Kobe's efficiency was average, and the Nuggets always took the lead.

After Kobe took a break, the Lakers played chaotically, basically whoever had the ball would do it.

The Lakers really have a lot of players who can play with the ball. They also have a certain offensive power when they play this way.

"Discipline, execution. Remember, we can't mess with each other." Xiang Chu reminded his teammates.

Sometimes you will forget the tactics if you play smoothly, and it will not be so easy to get back if it gets messy.

In fact, the Lakers are not without tactics at all, but they can't play the desired effect. In the eyes of the fans, this group of people is just throwing around, and it feels like it is not as good as a wild field.

The Lakers' offensive power is not bad, but the scores of the two teams are gradually expanding.

The Nuggets are playing steadily under the leadership of Xiang Chu, which is much more stable than the Lakers relying on their personal touch.

By the end of the first half, the Nuggets had led by double digits.

The players were very happy, so during the intermission, Xiang Chu had to ring the alarm bell for them.

This is the case with many young players. He must shoulder the responsibility of the big brother, otherwise it will be easy to go wrong.

In the third quarter, Kobe not only took on the task of scoring, but also began to organize. It seems that he wanted to play this game seriously, and he was probably stimulated by Xiang Chu. Kobe still has a strong determination to win, but he covered up a lot before retiring.

Kobe was still very threatening to play seriously when he felt good, and the Nuggets encountered another trouble at this time, and Gallinari was injured.

Gallinari had no problems at all before, but he was injured again unexpectedly. This buddy is still a little fragile. Xiang Chu only hopes that he has no major problems.

What Xiang Chu has to do now is to lead the team to win the game.

After Gallinari left the field, the Nuggets were in a mess on the offensive end for a while, allowing the Lakers to chase the score to single digits.

At the critical moment, Xiang Chu stepped forward and caused Hibbert to foul twice in a row, causing him to commit five fouls. Only then did the other Nuggets players feel relieved.

Now the Lakers are too weak inside, and if Hibbert goes down, they can only use the fourth player to top them.

After Xiang Chu stabilized the situation, Middleton and Harris also stood up from the outside line. After entering the fourth quarter, they stabilized on the offensive end.

Gallinari is the second point of the Nuggets, but the defending champion still has a certain background. It is not realistic for the Lakers to kill them like this.

As soon as he is restrained, there will be opportunities on the outside, and Middleton can also play at a very strong level.

In the final quarter, after the Lakers lost Hibbert, the Nuggets Twin Towers completely controlled the game.

Kobe accepted the score again and scored in double figures in a single quarter.

But when Kobe scored, he couldn't do other things, and it was impossible to drive his teammates. He couldn't do it well at his peak.

Kobe Bryant, who organizes the offense, is actually not in full form. He is fully fired and only has the basket in his eyes.

So when the Lakers were strong, Kobe was actually the end point, but in the current situation, when Kobe is fully fired, his teammates don't have enough ability to cooperate.

Although the Nuggets lack one strong point, their overall strength is still stronger.

In the last 5 minutes, the Lakers narrowed the score to single digits twice, but they were beaten back by the Nuggets' inside attacks. It is meaningless for the Lakers to use a small lineup when Kobe takes over the game.

Perhaps the Lakers are playing badly and want to make Kobe happy, so the lineup is deliberately so.

Kobe scored 30+ at the end of this battle, but the Nuggets must have won the game.

Xiang Chu also said after the game: "Bryant can still see scoring opportunities that others can't find in his eyes. It's hard to imagine that he will retire."

Kobe did not accept an interview, and it is a bit sad that he still failed to win the game.

When leaving, he was always reluctant. It wasn't that he couldn't fight anymore, it was just because he couldn't win.

The Nuggets were not so happy to win the game, because Gallinari will be out for a while.

And they are about to set off to play back-to-back away games. It is hard to say whether the winning streak can continue.

"Injuries are also part of the game. What we have to do is to take his share to win the victory together." Xiang Chu encouraged his teammates.
