You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 241 Goodbye Brown
"Today's Kobe, even if Jesus comes to defend, there will be problems." George Karl publicly expressed his surprise to Kobe.

The only time Mark Cuban thinks that his Dirk is not as good as someone, "Who is the superstar in the NBA? I think as long as this person wants to score, he can score without any scruples. Dirk is good, but Kobe makes me smack."

In order to maintain the authority of the league, David Stern has been deliberately keeping a distance from the players, but he also joked about Kobe's 81 points: "If Kobe wants to transfer the Lakers to the East, we may agree, because as the representative of the NBA today, everything should start for him."

Kobe's 81-point night featured many great games.

The Rockets challenged the No. 43 Pistons in the league. Yao Ming was absent due to injury, McGrady returned from injury and scored 2 points. Unfortunately, the Rockets lost by 43 points. [-] points is also McGrady's highest score of the season.

The 76ers led by Allen Iverson and Andre Iguodala challenged Garnett's Timberwolves. After trailing by 19 points in the first half, with Iguodala's last key second attack, the lore beat the Timberwolves. Iverson scored 39 points and scored 26 points in the second half.

Ray Allen led the Sonics to challenge the Suns with Nash.The two sides fought fiercely for two overtimes. With Ray Allen's final lore, the Sonics defeated the Suns 152:149.Ray Allen scored 42 points, Marion scored 37 points.

Every game is very exciting, it can be said that it is the headlines, but Kobe's 81 points make all this a foil.

The influence of 81 points is becoming more far-reaching with the spread of the media.

Wei Xia woke up and went on with a new day.

The world is being shocked by Kobe's miracle, and some people have decided to look forward.

As the end of the month approaches, the All-Star weekend roster for mid-February has been released. Kobe was selected as the All-Star starter, and Wei Xia was selected for the Rookie Challenge.

The media in Los Angeles were very dissatisfied when they found that Wei Xia was not shortlisted for the slam dunk contest.

Although the regular season has just passed halfway, Wei Xia is undoubtedly the best dunker of the Lakers in terms of his performance on the court and the quality of dunks.

The increasingly boring slam dunk contest should allow a show-loving young man like him to show off his talent.

Wei Xia went to Golden State with the team with the resentment of all LA. There are still three games to play before the end of January.

Being in Golden State again feels different than last time.

The last time was just an ordinary away game, but this time it was Kobe's first game after scoring 81 points against the Raptors.

There are many media who want to know what Kobe's vision is for the Warriors game.

Bryant said confidently: "In terms of offense, I have nothing to prove."

"So, you've decided to take Charles Barkley's advice?"

A few days ago, Charles Barkley, one of the top 81 superstars in NBA history who worked for TNT, was one of the rare people who boasted Kobe's [-] points without thinking.Not only did he not brag about Kobe, but he also criticized: "The Raptors' defensive strategy is a bit stupid, and if Kobe passes a few more balls, the situation may be better. He has been a little bewildered recently, even Michael does not have such distrust of his teammates."

If there was one thing to distill from his words, it would be: pass the ball, Kobe!

Sharks will never get over this stalk, and now that Barkley has brought it up again, Kobe's head hurts hearing it.

"No, I didn't listen to anyone's advice." After finishing speaking, Kobe refused the rest of the interview with a proud face.

Wei Xia was asked why he was not selected for the dunk contest.

In fact, this is a mutual matter. If the league wants to invite him, but he doesn't want to participate, it will be very embarrassing.Wei Xia made it clear that he would not participate in the dunk contest.

"I'm a practical dunker." He said without humility at all.

In the game against the Raptors, Kobe's 81 points raised the expectations of countless people, so that even scoring 50 points against the Warriors would not cause any splashes.

He decided to restrain his desire to attack.

The Warriors tried to stop the Lakers, and All-Star guard Byron David's offense hammered Smush Parker.

No one blames Parker, whoever defends Davis in that state has the same result.

Wei Xia came off the bench and faced Derek Fisher, the hero of the OK Dynasty.

Meeting the old owner, Fisher wanted to show some performance on the stage to make the Lakers regret trading him.

After playing for a long time, he failed to make the Lakers regret it.

Because he was a substitute, he happened to meet Wei Xia, the Lakers' second strongest outside line.

In the end, Fisher scored 18 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. He looked gorgeous, but his data could not stand up to scrutiny.

The shooting rate of 15 out of 4 is ugly. If the referee hadn't blown too many body whistles for Wei Xia, he would have played even more embarrassingly.

Wei Xia also has special feelings for the Warriors.

He almost joined the team in the first place.

Every time he plays against the Warriors, he wants to show his best side to prove that they were right in wanting him.

The Warriors failed to get Weixia as they wished, so they chose Weixia's substitute Ike Diogu. He made 6 of 2 shots against the Lakers, scored 4 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. The potential on paper may never be converted into data.

Wei Xia was full of fouls. At the last moment, the Lakers were not the strongest. Fortunately, they performed steadily in the penalty shootout and defeated the Warriors by 1 point.

Kobe's performance was not bad, with 31 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in the game. His score was lower than the average data per game, and his rebounds and assists were equal to the average data per game.

For the Warriors, the bearded Davis scored 29 points and 10 assists and failed to win.

Warriors head coach Mike Montgomery (Mike Montgomery) praised Kobe after the game: "He is a real winner. We thought he would continue to move forward with the momentum of 81 points against the Raptors. As a result, he showed extraordinary calmness and confidence. The real strong should be as calm as him."

"I'm glad to see that Kobe has a real helper." Fisher boasted of Wecha, "That rookie will definitely become his strong helper."

Wei Xia, who was praised by others, couldn't be happy.

In the matchup with Fisher, in general, he was dominant, with 12 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and all 3 blocks belonging to Fisher.

But it is also true that 6 of his 4 fouls were played by Fisher.

He is still very young, there are too many places to improve.

Two days later, the Lakers headed to Detroit.

What awaits them in Dadi City is the real formidable enemy-the Pistons.

The OK Lakers ended with the Pistons. In June two years ago, F4 fell into the sand, OK fell apart, and the Motor City transformed smoothly, creating a grassroots legend that is one of the few in NBA history.

Now is the second year of OK's dispersal, and the Pistons are still strong.

They currently rank first in the league with a record of 36 wins and losses. Although the head coach has been replaced by Philip Sanders, the hard-line style has been retained.

Facing the muscle jungle of the Pistons, the Lakers can adapt to no one except Kobe.

Smash Parker, who had never been pinned on high expectations, instead used his stupid style of play to fight his way out, becoming the only Lakers player other than Kobe who could score in double figures against the Pistons.

The Pistons' inside advantage is too obvious.

Two Wallaces ate Mihm, Cook and others to death, and Antonio McDyess was still sitting on the bench.Billups and Hamilton's back line are equally eye-catching, coupled with Prince's main flank, they can get what they want, suppressing the Lakers in all directions.

科比全场28投13中，空砍40分6拉板3助攻。

Parker had 16 points and 5 assists, and Mihm had 14 rebounds but nothing.

Wei Xia had 6 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and another 6 fouls. The Pistons' mind-numbing confrontation forced him to entangle with the opponent in the same way, but the Pistons can be so confrontational does not mean that he can also.

As a rookie who doesn't know how to count, if he tries to find a confrontation, he will naturally be sanctioned by the referee.

The Lakers lost and the winning streak ended.

Apart from lamenting that "even the Pistons can't limit Kobe to less than 40 points", the media has nothing nutritious to say.

On January 1, the Lakers headed to their third away game on the road.

new York
The anger of losing to the Pistons was brought to the next away game by the Lakers.

Before the game against the Knicks, Phil Jackson banned the players from speaking to the media.

"I know the reporters here, they can't wait to dig out your hearts to see what's hidden inside!" Jackson's words can only scare children like Bynum.

Wei Xia rolled his eyes indifferently, aren't journalists all over the world like this?
Although he didn't agree with it in his heart, he had to accept Jackson's order. The Lakers were "silent on the radio" throughout the entire process, and the outside world couldn't see them.

Instead, their opponents, the Knicks, continued to speak harshly.

Like the Knicks general manager Isiah Thomas, he took over and issued a declaration of victory for Larry Brown: "I believe we can beat the Lakers on the last day of January. It will be a wonderful moment. Every New York fan will smile when he thinks of that picture."

The Knicks' confidence in the paint.

The combination of Eddie Curry and Antonio Davis is indeed stronger than the Lakers' inside line.

But it's not a day or two for the Lakers to see who gets blasted inside.

During the warm-up, Wesha deliberately walked towards Knicks coach Larry Brown.

"As a kid from Philadelphia, I have to salute you," Wesha said.At the same time, he who played a game as a substitute for Skywalker is equivalent to actually played a game for Brown, so he should come to say hello.

Brown habitually showed a defensive posture to the opponent's players: "Is there anything else?"

"We just lost to the Pistons a few days ago, so today we will fight for victory at all costs." Wei Xia said, "Victory is glory."

Brown was taken aback, and finally took a good look at Wei Xia.

Victory is glory?

These words brought him back to 28 years ago, that special April, that special game, that genius who made him regret countless times.
