NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 1216 Kobe, are you worried about being traded?

At three o'clock this afternoon, the Suns arrived in Los Angeles.

On May 5, the G11 battle started.

The Lakers fought back and fought back frantically.

Based on defense, Li Ba tried his best to lead his team to counterattack, but finally lost the G5 game.

The Suns missed the outside line, and the veterans declined due to physical reasons.

Li Ba scored a 5*5+ quadruple-double in this battle, only assists but no double-doubles.

On the other hand, Kobe had a big explosion. He made 12 of 6 three-pointers and scored 53 points. He led the team to win the G5 game and regained a match point.

Three to two, the two teams left Los Angeles one after another on the second day, and on the 13th, the G6 game started in Phoenix.

In the frenzied atmosphere of the home court, Li Ba made the first move. After jumping the ball, he immediately rushed to the basket. At this time, Nash passed the ball in, and he caught the ball violently. With a bang, facing Duncan was an extremely strong barrier buckle.

Duncan was knocked over by Li Ba on the spot, injured his knee and couldn't get up.

The Lakers lost the inside line at the beginning of the game, and their momentum was frustrated. The offense could only be played from the outside.

But Kobe has a high momentum. He won the game with a three-pointer from the outside in the last game. He also firmly believes that he can do it this time.

But at this time, Li Ba changed positions, because the Lakers did not have Duncan, and the United Arab Emirates could deal with Gasol, and he stood in front of Kobe.

In just one quarter, Li Ba blocked Kobe three times and stole Kobe three times, preventing Kobe from making 4 of 1 shots, and finally missed the ball.

And Li Ba played terrifying fast breaks one after another on the outside, crushing fast breaks, and the Lakers couldn't stand it.

After one quarter, 14:34, the Suns led by 20 points.

In the second quarter, the Lakers still fought with their backs, and all the main players continued to play.

With Li Ba locking up Kobe, the Lakers' offense turned to Gasol and Parker, causing two consecutive fouls by the UAE.

As a point guard, Li Ba began to attack Gasol crazily on the offensive end. In just 5 minutes, he used his powerful impact to repeatedly penetrate the Lakers' outside and inside defenses, causing Gasol to make two fouls. Mu made a foul, plus the foul in the first quarter, Gasol has committed three fouls.

But the Lakers have no one to change inside, and Gasol can only continue to play.

Li Ba continued to attack the Lakers inside, so the Lakers had to let Parker defend Li Ba, and then let Tony Allen help defend in the back, blocking the guns for Gasol and Odom.

In just four rounds, Parker was knocked down once, and Tony Allen was even worse, being knocked into the air by Li Ba who rushed up twice.

Li Ba didn't hold back at all. Tony Allen was injured after being hit by Li Ba for the third time, and Artest stepped up again.

Artest was demoralized by Li Ba's buckle in G4. His mentality has not recovered until now. After facing Li Ba, he shrank, distracted, and didn't react in time. He couldn't stop Li Ba at all. Impact the paint area.

At the end of the third quarter, Gasole made five fouls and Odom made four.

Li Ba blasted the Lakers' inside and outside lines on the offensive end, and also continued to lock Kobe on the defensive end.

Under Li Ba's extraordinary performance, the Lakers lost Duncan again, and Gasol and Odom were limited by fouls, so they were completely blown up on both offense and defense.

At the end of the third quarter, Li Ba was only three assists away from the five-double.

At this time, the Lakers were already trailing by 37 points. In the fourth quarter, Li Ba sat on the bench and didn't even bother to make a five-double. But without Li Ba in front of him, Kobe started chasing points crazily.

But in the end, with Li Ba sitting on the bench, the Lakers still failed to chase points, 86:112, losing by 26 points.

So far, after six games, 4:2, the Lakers were eliminated in the second round, and the Suns made great strides into the Western Conference Finals.

"Iron Hammer, why didn't you play in the fourth quarter? Don't you like to check the data?" After the game, a reporter asked.

"I never use stats on Kobe." Li Ba said.

"Why?" the reporter asked suspiciously.

"Because Kobe is a more pure basketball player than me and Michael Jordan. For such a person, since he has been defeated, there is no need to use statistics on him. I will not humiliate him with a five-double." Lee dam road.

"Why do you say that Kobe is more pure than you and Michael?" a reporter asked.

"It's very simple. Apart from the game, Kobe is training. And Michael Jordan and I, one went to play professional baseball, the other played tennis and boxing. We both have other interests."

When Li Ba said this, he finally complained about Jordan: "Oh, by the way, Michael also likes to gamble a few times. He gambles everywhere. He even likes to gamble more than basketball, haha!"

"Is this a compliment to Kobe?" a reporter asked.

"Of course." Li Ba nodded.

In the postgame press conference, before the media asked questions, Phil Jackson suddenly announced that he would resign as the head coach of the Lakers.

Kobe did not attend the press conference at all. Duncan injured his knee and had already gone to the hospital. Only Gasol and Parker were there. The two of them were also surprised and looked a little disturbed.

"Phil, will the Lakers rebuild?" Some media reporters immediately asked loudly below, regardless of being flopped.

"It's not my problem, sorry." Phil Jackson refused to answer.

"Mr. Kupchak, will the Lakers rebuild?" Another reporter asked Kupchak.

Kupchak was standing next to him. He didn't seem surprised by Phil Jackson's resignation. He didn't have much expression on his face. When the reporter asked this question, he had no choice but to stand in front of him and said, "I'm very surprised. I need to communicate with Phil, this question cannot be answered for the time being."

"Hammer, do you think the Lakers will go into reconstruction?" A reporter asked Li Batou.

Li Ba thought for a while and said, "I think we can wait a little longer. It's hard to say what will happen next season."

He also said this sentence, but it triggered a lot of speculation in the media.

The Lakers are likely to fall into reconstruction, and the press conference hastily ended.

"Kobe, I'll treat you tomorrow, don't rush to leave Phoenix." After the press conference, Li Ba called Kobe.

"I won't watch you play in the Western Conference finals." Kobe said angrily.

"Have you returned to the hotel?" Li Ba asked.

"The locker room," Kobe said.

Li Ba found the visiting team's locker room, but he didn't see Phil Jackson.

At this time, Gasol and Parker who participated in the press conference had already returned, and the news of Phil Jackson's resignation also spread to the locker room, and the atmosphere was very dull.

"What do you want to say?" Kobe asked, leaning against the closet without standing up.

"It's nothing, Xianbei restaurant will expand in the second half of the year, and the capital increase plan has been prepared, I want to find an opportunity to talk to you." Li Ba said.

Kobe was eliminated, and the news didn't seem to arouse his interest, he was taken aback for a moment and said, "I know, I will continue to increase capital proportionally."

"Are you worried about being traded?" Li Ba asked.

Kobe jumped up, jumped up from his seat, stared at Li Ba and said, "Hammer, I have the right to veto transactions, don't you know?"

Li Ba laughed and said, "So what? If the Lakers don't want to keep you, there's no point in staying with the Lakers."

"You want to go to the Lakers?" Kobe said angrily.

"I'm not that interested. I just want to remind you that you may become a bargaining chip during the offseason." Li Ba laughed.

"I see. I will stay tomorrow." Kobe said lazily in a rare sight.

Li Ba shook his head, greeted Gasol and the others, turned and left.
