Staples tonight lacked a bit of a chilling atmosphere, because Lakers fans no longer care about whether the team can win or not this season.

Lakers fans are very satisfied to see Nao Nao play on the court.

What surprised Wayne the most was that when Wayne walked into the Staples Center, he actually received cheers from many fans.

There is no doubt that when people look back on Kobe's career, Wayne is a name that cannot be avoided.

From the summer of 2006 when Wayne joined the Trail Blazers until Yao Ming retired after playing in 2011.

For five years, the entire league belonged to the Trail Blazers and Lakers.

In the past five years, the Trail Blazers and the Lakers have been the two biggest contenders for the championship. It was an era that belonged to the Trail Blazers and the Lakers, to Wayne and Kobe.

Of course, that was also Kobe's true peak period.

Kobe, who won the first three consecutive championships, is naturally not weak, and can even be said to be very strong.

1999-00 season: 22.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, best second team + defensive first team.

00-01 season: 28.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists, best second team + defensive second team.

01-02 season: 25.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, best first team + defensive second team.

This kind of Kobe is definitely not at the level that we usually say when we joke, "My grandma can win championships with Shaq."

In fact, there was no other shooting guard besides Kobe who was selected to the All-NBA Team + Defense for three consecutive regular seasons during the Lakers' three consecutive championships.

O'Neal also admitted: Even if there are a lot of messy things happening between us, we all know that we need each other to win. Looking back at all my criticisms of Kobe, I never once said that he can't play. Our conflict has never been

About personal strength.

But no matter how strong Kobe is, in the previous three consecutive championships, Shaq was the core and the real boss of the team.

Kobe's mentality is far from reaching the maturity of his peak period.

Therefore, that was not Kobe's true peak period.

In the last two championships, although Chairman Yao was very strong, he was really there to assist Kobe.

The entire Lakers team is dominated by Kobe and supplemented by Yao Ming.

Therefore, even though Kobe's physical fitness has declined, his mentality and skills are still superb.

That was Kobe's true peak.

As Kobe's almost only opponent during his peak period, Wayne must be a very special existence to Los Angeles fans.

In the past, when Wayne visited Staples, he would only hear boos from the fans.

But during the special time of Kobe's last season, Wayne was also remembered by Lakers fans as part of Kobe's career.

When Kobe saw Wayne, he hugged him tightly.

This is not the first time Wayne has experienced Kobe's retirement season. He still remembers the day Kobe retired in his previous life. As Kobe, he skipped class all morning to watch that game.

After watching it, I also posted a message on a very non-mainstream QQ space: I finished watching the game, to my passing youth~

Then the counselor who forgot to block left a message below: Xiao Ge came to my office in the afternoon.

Looking back now, the reason why I was so impressed with that day may not be because Kobe retired, but because he was caught skipping classes and was punished by sweeping the office for two days.

Me and my teacher.avi.

Even though Kobe Bryant retired, the earth turned around and the sun still rose the next day.

But for some reason, Wayne still felt that day was a special day.

This is probably a way of expressing feelings for the black man.

"Wayne, you didn't play well in the preseason. Today we must have a real fight!" After the hug, Kobe patted Wayne on the back.

Wayne is ecstatic!

Kobe must play seriously, this game is stable!

Kobe wanted to play seriously, so he next blocked people and killed Buddha: ×.

Kobe wants to play seriously, so he will smash the basketball and knock the air out of the basket, and he can't pass the ball: √.

Nacha: It’s not that I don’t pass the ball, it’s that I don’t pass the ball if it’s not cool.

"By the way, your buckle challenge is still valid, right?"

When the two sides were about to return to their own half, Naochi suddenly whispered in Wayne's ear.

"Of course it works? You can't." Wayne looked at Kobe. As an old comrade, how could you have such immature thoughts?

It’s so embarrassing for me to support you all the time during your retirement tour at your home stadium.

"Hey, it's not me, but there is someone in our team who can dunk. What? Are you scared?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I made friends with you, but I didn't expect that you actually wanted to ask someone to expose me! Anyone around you is just a brat. If they can do it, just ask them to come."

Wayne shrugged and Kobe smiled evilly.

It seems that Wayne thought Nao Nao too well!

Although he was about to retire, he still thought about fucking Wayne.

If you can't do it yourself, ask your younger brother to do it.

Because of his hard work, people will say that his younger brother has Mamba mentality.

If he can't do it, it's not him who is embarrassed.

Guaranteed profit without loss!

Later, both parties also said hello to each other's families.

Gianna gave Wayne a big hug. This little cotton-padded jacket looks so close to her body~

Not to be outdone, Naochi held Wayne's son in his arms and wandered in front of reporters. While wandering, he asked the little boy: "Who are you going to learn to play ball from in the future?"

"Learn from you~"

"Why don't you learn from your dad?"

"He's not as good at playing as you."

"Hahahahahaha, you little brat, what are you talking about?"

Journalists:

After Naochi returned to the bench, he also looked at the young people seriously: "Did you feel uncomfortable being abused by the Trail Blazers in the preseason? Today, if you have the ability, you can fight back. Let me say it first, I am willing to give up today.

I'll give you some shots. If you have the guts, go dunk Wayne and show me.

When I was your age, I even challenged Jordan!"

Everyone is gearing up, hoping to perform well in front of the boss, and hoping to have some stories with a super giant like Wayne.

Young people are full of blood and do not know the stakes involved.

Besides, other seniors always advise young people: "If you can't control it, I will control it."

Naochi is the opposite of persuading: "I know you can't grasp it, but I still want you to grasp it."

Wayne also became vigilant after returning, because the Lakers really had two dunk experts.

One is Randall, this guy is very reckless, but he can run and jump. He is also very stubborn. If he fails once, he will do it twice, if he fails twice, he will do it three times, and if he fails three times, he will not give up.

The other one is Nance Jr. Needless to say, there is no need to talk about his dunk. The dunk on Lopez's goal almost made the Nets bench stand up and celebrate.

So today, you still have to be careful.

The game started soon, and amid the cheers of the fans, both sides took their positions.

Because the Lakers are out-and-out weaklings, they often defeat themselves in the first quarter of the game.

Therefore, everyone on the Trail Blazers is relatively relaxed.

The Lakers have Russell, Clarkson, Kobe, Randle and Gao Yuanyuan because Young Shaoxia is injured.

It's just a sparring team.

Clarkson's excitement level is average. After all, he is a person who was educated by Wayne in the pre-season.

But Russell and Randall, their eyes almost fell off Wayne.

Especially Russell, his outstanding performance in recent games has made him extremely confident.

Lakers fans, everyone knows this.

As long as you play well in a few games, the discussion of historical status has already begun.

Moreover, Shui La's recent outstanding performance has even brought him close to the two youngest daughters of the Bass family.

There is quite a feeling that after getting to know Bai Fumei, I have entered the upper class society.

Today, the two little girls from the Bass family are watching from the sidelines.

As a child, Russell naturally wanted to look cool in front of girls of his own age.

So his whole body was as if he had been injected with chicken blood. Seeing how excited he was, Wayne thought he was a leopard that had escaped from the zoo.
