You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 866
Chapter 877 Before the Closing

The severe pain made it difficult for Wei Xia to maintain his touch. Although he could score some goals, the subsequent pain would quickly make him forget the feeling of scoring.

Therefore, even though he has played the best level possible and played the whole game, he still only scored 19 points.

With seven future Hall of Famers and Havlicek, who is missing an arm, the Knicks' giants are at a loss.

Wesha knew that Havlicek had always been a right-handed player, but in order to be an offensive threat, he had to score with his left hand, just like what his successor Larry Bird did on Valentine's Day in 1986 many years later.

The Celtics won that game.

When he woke up, Wei Xia felt like he had a nightmare.

He carefully moved the shoulder of his right hand, and he was relieved after confirming that he was not injured.

He wondered how Havlicek managed to play three games through that pain.

It was too difficult for him.

Especially after experiencing that pain, he felt more and more that it was torturing himself, and at the same time, he was overdrawing his future.

Although Havlicek's career did not end because of that injury, his approach still brought great risks to himself.

He stayed on the bed for a few minutes.

In April, with a few games left in the regular season, the 76ers still have work to do.

The first match was the New Orleans Pelicans. The 76ers went on a killing spree, leaving no chance for the opponent and winning by 20 points.

Wei Xia had a triple-double, Rondo was a quasi-triple-double, Cousins ​​scored single digits and had 20 rebounds.

Wecha, Rondo, and Cousins ​​alone have more rebounds than the Pelicans.

Then there is the old rival Heat.

In the past five years, the 76ers and the Heat have faced off in the playoffs four times, and they are in the throes of James leaving the team.

Wade is old, and Bosh has an indefinite truce due to weird injuries.

The Heat are still brave, and it is difficult to cause substantial damage and blows to the 76ers.

Cousins ​​​​scored 40 points to satisfy his hunger for scoring only single digits in the previous game.

At the same time, Hayward also scored 30 points.

The second master and the third master showed their prowess, Wei Xia had no time to paddle, and disappeared on the court after scoring 12 points.

Then came the Jazz.

The Jazz is not only one of the opponents of the 76ers in the closing stage, but also the opponent of Kobe's retirement battle.

It's not hard to see the league's intentions just from the schedule. Although Kobe played for a few months before announcing his retirement, the league has already been preparing.

Let the Lakers play the Jazz in the final game, which is proof of the league's "ulterior motives".

Wei Xia hit the Jazz hard.

On both offensive and defensive ends, you can do whatever you can to blow up your opponent.

He easily scored 45 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, and the Jazz couldn't fight back. After the game, he reminded: "I hope you can show a correct attitude towards the Lakers' game in a few days."

The 76ers defeated the Jazz in this regard, achieved the 60th win of the season, and secured the first place in the Eastern Conference.

They ensured they had home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, and don't count on the top two in the West.

The Spurs are basically certain to refresh the best record in team history.

The Warriors have become the second NBA team after the 96 Bulls to win 72 wins. There are two games left in the regular season, which means that they have enough chances to break the record, and they have more than one record to improve. If it goes well, they will increase the record by two games.

This is a fabulous record, and now it is about to be broken, it is really shocking.

In the penultimate game before the end of the 76ers season, the opponent was the Phoenix Suns, which had been rotten for several years.

The sun is like the king in the early years. Without the group of people under Adelman's command, they will fall into the abyss and have no hope of rising.

The Suns are similar. They once reached ninth in the Western Conference in order to return to the playoffs, and they were only one step away. Now they are constantly struggling to find a superstar who can lead the team to a revival.

Their approach is the most popular in the market, and the simplest. It is not difficult to operate badly, and select talents.

From the current point of view, they have the determination to play badly, but they have not chosen the eye of genius.

Seeing their hard work, the 76ers decided to make them feel better.

For some reason, all the 76ers are sleepwalking tonight.

The Suns played more and more smoothly, and defeated them in an upset.

At the end of the game, the whole team ran around the field in ecstasy. The head coach and former NBA player Earl Watson shed tears of joy: "I know we deserve this victory. These guys are really good!"

Then, they can't help it.

One of them cried more happily than the other, which made people feel sour.

"I suddenly felt that we should lose a few more games. You see, their reaction let me know that there are many teams eager to beat us." Cousins ​​said naively.

That being said, but for the 76ers to lose, their opponents must show strength.

Tonight, rather than saying that the Suns showed their strength, it is better to say that the 76ers did not show their due strength.

They lose or lose, but they have no impact on the pattern of the East.

Back home with 60 wins.

Their opponent is the Lakers from Los Angeles.

The penultimate regular season game was also the last time Kobe visited the Wells Fargo Center as a Lakers player. The significance of this is unusual.

On April 2016, 4, the game day between the 11ers and the Lakers.

On this day, Wei Xia specially visited Kobe's hometown and gave Old Joe a few tickets for the game that night.

At first, when Old Joe got the tickets, he resolutely refused: "I can't go to watch that brat's game live! Unless he apologizes to me, otherwise I don't have this son!"

"If you think so, then you should come to watch the game." Wei Xia knew how intense the internal conflicts of the Bryant family were, so he wanted to prescribe the right medicine.

"How to say?"

"I don't intend to show mercy. If you want to see Kobe being taught a lesson before retiring, you should come to watch the game live. You and your aunt had better wear 76ers cheering T-shirts, which can give Kobe even more stimulation." Wei Xia was full of bad water.

Old Joe asked inexplicably: "Aren't you and Kobe good friends?"

"Because I'm a good friend, so I don't plan to release water." Wei Xia said.

Old Qiao held the ticket in his hand, he was already moved, but he didn't agree on the spot: "I think about it?"

"Don't force it. Even if you and your aunt don't come to the scene, I will give Kobe a good look. If you can come, I guarantee that you will see a great performance."

"Don't talk too soon!" Old Joe was also a contradictory body, "Kobe is not a vegetarian!"

Both he and Pamela have the habit of defending Kobe subconsciously. Now when Wei Xia said that he wanted to teach Kobe a lesson, he immediately forgot that Wei Xia was here to deliver tickets, and even said a few words for Kobe, which made Wei Xia quite helpless.

But this ticket was sent out anyway.

If you are willing to accept the ticket, you can look forward to their two elders appearing at the Fuguo Center tonight.

Kobe has officially announced that he will retire after the end of the season. Therefore, for his arrival, the 76ers also prepared an exquisite short film to pay tribute to him.

The Fuguo Center that night was full of people, and fans who came for Kobe filled all the seats, big and small.

When Wesha came to Philadelphia with Kobe as a rookie 11 years ago, no one welcomed Kobe.

At times, they acted like they hated Kobe more than the Denver fans did, which hurt Kobe deeply.

Time can repair many things. The conflicts and grievances between Kobe and his hometown have been blown away with time.

After the video was played, Wei Xia happened to find Kobe's parents in the VIP area.

They all came to the scene.

The camera turned on them from time to time, and even the narrator wondered if their arrival meant that the ice at Kobe and his family had melted.

Seeing the faces of the old Joe and his wife who wanted to cry but could not cry in the short video of Kobe's tribute, Wei Xia found it interesting.

Wouldn't it have been funnier if they had seen Kobe blown up by him live?That's called a mix of sorrow and joy.

Wei Xia was thinking about it, Kobe walked to the midfield and took the microphone to speak.

"Every time I come here, I worry and look forward to it."

"I am worried about you booing me, but I expect you to cheer me. I am very happy that there are no more booing here today."

There were more and more cheers and applause, all of which belonged to Kobe.

"If there is any regret in my career, it is that apart from the insignificant championship I won in high school, I have not made other contributions to Philadelphia as a basketball player. This is my failure, and it is an irreparable regret. I am sorry."

The whole audience cheered him on.

"My career is coming to a close, and if this is the last time I play on this course, I hope...all of you, including me, enjoy yourself!"

Speaking of this, the cheers of Fuguo Center have swept the audience.
