Chapter 812 He reminds me of Wilkins
76 people ate the door opening in February.
They have to play four more games before the All-Star Weekend arrives.
One of them was against the Lakers.
The Lakers have been trading Marc Gasol recently.
As one of the old men of the Lakers' Second Dynasty, he is still young and has the strength of the best lineup. Although he has some light on the withering of giants, those who can be selected into the best lineup are not mortals.
The Lakers peddled Gasol Jr. means a lot.
As we all know, the Lakers are already Jim Buss' team. Gasol Jr. is also the most proud talent in Langli Taosha's draft department.
After Kobe's Achilles tendon exploded, the Lakers declined and completely lost their competitiveness in the 1910s.
After his comeback, Kobe lost even the first half of his injury. For market reasons, the Lakers renewed his contract until the summer of 2016.
Kobe is no longer able to do, what should the Lakers do? Of course, it is reconstruction.
But how big a sign is the Lakers? They can't be as over-the-top as some teams. To make a bad move, they have to act like "doing their best, but they can't beat it."
How to do it specifically?
Depriving Gasol Jr. of the ball's dominance, allowing Jabarri Parker to let go, and "out of respect for Kobe", gave Kobe unlimited fire.
If it is the peak Kobe, he will take whatever he wants.
But Kobe is even in trouble with starting now, and he still has the power to fire unlimitedly. Isn’t that waiting to lose?
At least, Kobe maintained the glory on the books.
He and Parker, both averaged 20 per game.
But one hit 40% from the field and the other 42%. Gasol's average assists per game fell to a new low since his rookie season, while rebounding and offensive rebounding set a new career high.
The Lakers have tried their best to play the deformed lineup and deformed style of play, and they still play very hard on the surface.
When playing against the Lakers again, Wei Xia started a bit hard.
You can't blame him, you have to blame the Spurs if you want to blame.
The Spurs won them, but they didn't want to lose in a row, so they naturally focused on the Lakers. First of all, they must ensure that they win. As long as the Lakers' head coach Mike D'Anthony is more aware of their relationship and surrender in formalism early, they will not play too badly.
Unfortunately, old coaches like D'Antoni often have some pride that is difficult to explain.
Facing his former old club, Wei Xia scored 40 points in three quarters, 49 points and 10 rebounds in the game, and his shooting percentage exceeded 60%.
Michael Thompson said in a complicated mood: "This is Kobe in 2006."
"Obviously, Kobe was the case in this era in 2006. The better Wish is, the sadder we are because we missed the best Kobe successor."
Lakers fans have absolutely some reason to cry, after all, not everyone has the opportunity to miss the next generation of cornerstones.
That night, Buss was also on the scene.
He deliberately accepted an off-site interview with reporters, congratulated Wei Xia on his performance, and said implicitly: "We have known for a long time that it was a mistake, but our system does not pursue all the faults of our ex, just like the president has administrative immunity."
Little Bus only made it clear: "It has nothing to do with me. If you want to scold me, just scold my sister and my father."
After the game, Wei Xia also accepted Kobe's invitation to have a midnight snack.
When they met off the scene, they each lamented their own experiences.
Wei Xia can see the feeling of powerlessness in Kobe's face. It is normal for aging. Everyone is getting older, and no one can stay young forever.
Kobe is no longer young.
At the age of 37, any athlete considers the age of retirement.
"If you knew that there would be today, would you still be so hard at that time?" Wei Xia asked Kobe.
Kobe knew what he was asking.
In the first round of the 2013 playoffs, the Lakers played against the Thunder, and Kobe broke his Achilles tendon.
Many people think that it is an unnecessary game.
Because the Lakers are no match for the Thunder no matter how they look at it, and Kobe had already had hidden dangers before the Achilles tendon exploded.
He was injured twice, although both were minor injuries, but they were undoubtedly warnings from his body.
All people with problems with Achilles tendon, without exception, ignore the alarm from the body.
"Although you know every skill of me, unfortunately, you don't understand me as much as you imagined." Kobe said arrogantly.
Wei Xia didn't think it was so happy to understand Kobe's behavior.
Because Kobe himself is not a normal person.
Isn’t it normal for a normal person like him to not understand?
"I remember you said you would meet me in the finals, but unfortunately, we didn't reach the finals of that year." Wei Xia still remembered it very clearly.
Kobe snorted: "You're not stupid enough to take that matter seriously, right? I'm just talking and playing around. Do you think I think you could beat Miami that year? How is that possible?"
Truth hurts people, but it is better than using lies to make excuses.
Moreover, Wei Xia was not completely powerless to fight back: "You are right, just as if I never had expectations for you."
The debate between Wei Xia and Kobe started from the beginning when they were dissatisfied with each other, and then it was a reward of distrust of each other.
They didn't decide the winner, and all Wei Xia could know was that Kobe had other ideas at that time.
What is the specific idea? Why is it even ignored your own health?
Moreover, from his tone, it seems that he does not regret the peak period that ends early.
Wei Xia believes that without the Achilles tendon injury, Kobe will be in the top 20 in the league until today.
Instead of being like now, in Ke Hei's eyes, he lost even the strength of the top 200 in the league.
But this year's All-Stars will definitely make many Ke Hei scream injustice.
Kobe, who is so virtuous, is still selected for the All-Star Weekend.
Someone lamented: "Average 21 points per game and shooting percentage is 40%. Kobe is undoubtedly the worst All-Star starter in history, right?"
Wei Xia did not pay attention to these trivial matters.
There are two games left to take off, and he and his teammates are eager to win both games.
When he faced the Timberwolves, Wiggins broke out.
Wei Xia knew that Wiggins could fly and walk well, but his upper limbs were thin and his shooting range was not up to the NBA's three-point line. His dribbling center of gravity was too high. Scouts from various schools would also say that he was not proactive in his off-ball movements, and liked to shoot long shots that he was not good at, but was unwilling to use his physical talent and beast-like athletic ability to attack the basket.
All his faults can be summed up in one sentence: they are so talented.
The talent is so good, so I am used to solving problems in the simplest way.
It is a bit similar to the air conditioner disease and the NBA version of Shui Buying. The former is a wealthy disease developed by excellent living conditions, while the latter is praised by countless movie fans due to her amazing physical talent. Although she has no acting skills and can still be too lazy to say something like a dead fish when fighting with a hard-working opponent, as long as she is willing to sacrifice herself for art, she will not lose her job for a day.
Therefore, Wiggins is undoubtedly the NBA version of Shui Buying. He cannot be the open hand without shooting range, and generally cannot be the chief ball holder with the ball. The draft template says that he is Rudy Gayvins Carter, but it is known to everyone in the world that in the NBA, Spider-Man who is similar to the physique and can fly and walk well may eventually become a 3D player - he can shoot three-pointers to fight for defense, and occasionally use fast breaks to steal some points.
Moreover, weak teams usually do not have an offensive system, and this thing is thankless. If you don’t, you will be in a mess. Winning is all about personal ability, and losing is all about natural. If you want to play badly, you have to do this.
Therefore, potential rookies often need to grow and eat by themselves to make a breakthrough. Therefore, rookies with poor ball holding skills have to wait for the second and third grades and slowly make a breakthrough. For example, Paul George, McGrady, Starkhouse, Glenn Robinson and Klay Thompson have all had such processes.
This is the situation at the beginning of the season. Then in December, in order for Wiggins to grow up healthily, the football bosses gave away, left, and injured, and Wiggins was "forced" to lead the company.
Today, Wiggins scored 30 points against Weisha and Hayward.
There are basically three routines.
He made an open three-pointer that he usually didn't make. During the counterattack, he made full use of his body to score points, and jumped on the side baskets on both left and right wings.
With these three tricks, I got 30 points and scored a masterpiece, but the Timberwolves were slaughtered by 76ers for 22 points.
After the game, the Timberwolves media insisted that Weisha praise Wiggins for a few words.
Wei Xia was forced to do nothing and praised her for a few words: "He reminded me of Dominic Wilkins."
