Chapter 133 New mission?Peak Kobe heads-up!

2017 5 Month 17 Day.

Everything was as expected by Zheng Long. The Warriors relied on the "Tsunami Three Brothers" to work together. The three scored 93 points and successfully won the last victory in the series against the Spurs.

In the series with the Spurs, the Warriors completed the final run-in and evolution.

Their current overall strength has far exceeded the regular season stage.

During the regular season, the Warriors were a sword in the stone, and now, the sword has been drawn.

Successfully eliminated the Spurs 4 to 2, advanced to the Western Conference Finals, and became the opponent of the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.

On the TV, the lonely Popovich cheered up and praised the performance of the Warriors for the camera.

"In the last game, when Curry and Thompson didn't play well, we couldn't win the game."

"Before the start of today's game, I knew that I couldn't stop Curry's performance today. No superstar will perform abnormally in two consecutive games."

"We missed the opportunity to lead in the last game, and finally swallowed the series in this game."

"The Warriors and the Lakers are both very strong. I can enjoy the Western Conference Finals this year with a glass of wine at home. If TD is willing, he should be with me."

At the end of the interview, Popovich, whether intentionally or not, cueed Tim Duncan. People are always like this. They are the most vulnerable when they fail, and it is easiest to miss what they used to rely on.

After the game, except for the game news about the Spurs and Warriors.

The topic of Hu Yong's Western Conference Finals also rushed to the hot search.

#西西湖少战 is here again, who can advance to the finals?
#Dubayo vs Kudu Tang, book the most exciting Western Conference Finals in history in advance!

#Yong [-], Hu [-], Qi [-], the winning odds are exposed, who will win in the West?

#The Spurs have already fallen, can the Lakers stop Universe Yong!

The Spurs' exit made the fans quickly focus on this year's Western Conference Finals.

The battle between the two teams in the regular season is very enjoyable, including the final battle at the end of the regular season.

Now, the two sides will meet directly in a full round of the series for fans to enjoy watching.

Of course, the situation in the East also affects the hearts of fans.

After all, James is in the East.

The day before the Warriors defeated the Spurs 4-2 to advance, that is, yesterday, the Cavaliers completed a sweep of the Raptors in the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Celtics also swept the Wizards 4-1 to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals and will compete with James. Meet in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The teams in the finals on both sides corresponded to the first and second places in the Eastern and Western regular seasons.

Some fans said that this year is the least suspenseful season. The Warriors with Durant will easily defeat the Lakers, win the Cavaliers again, and win this year's championship.

Fans are hotly discussing and have different opinions.

"Even if the Lakers double-kill the Warriors in the regular season, they still can't win the Warriors in 7 games. The Lakers only have Zheng Long, but Durant has already started the playoffs."

"Universal Yong proved his strength with a round of series. In the regular season, we are just playing for fun. In the playoffs, we will come for real."

"Don't forget that the Lakers easily swept the Rockets 4-0 to advance to the Western Conference Finals, while the Warriors spent 6 games in the Western Conference Semifinals."

"When did the Spurs and Rockets become teams of the same level? D'Antoni's magic ball can't win at all in the playoffs. This year's Spurs have the ability to win the championship in any year, but they were easily won by the Warriors. "

"Any year? The strength of the Spurs this year is not even as good as in previous years. The Spurs don't even have Duncan. How can they be considered a strong team?"

"Why are you all talking about the west, but no one pays attention to the east?"

"Eastern. Even if James breaks out of the Eastern Conference, he will still win the championship. I think the Cavaliers can't even meet the Celtics."

The attention of the 2016-17 season ushered in a big climax. You don’t have to watch the first and second rounds of the playoffs, but the conference finals and finals are games that most fans will not miss.

--------

Just when everything was in full swing.

The Lakers, who have determined their opponents, are also collectively involved in training.

On May 5th, the Lakers will usher in their first game against the Warriors at home. From that day, the Lakers still have two days to prepare.

It is difficult to train a new tactic or a new rotation in two days.

What's more, Walton is leading the players in training to maintain the feel and the state of the game. After all, it has been almost a week since the last game.

The matter of advancing to the Western Conference Finals still has some dreams for every player on the Lakers today. People like Ingram, Jokic and others have not yet digested it, and they will soon play in the Western Conference Finals.

On May 2017, 5, the day before G19 of the Western Conference Finals officially started.

A familiar guest came to the Lakers training arena.

When Kobe Bryant appeared at the entrance of the arena wearing a Lakers practice uniform, the entire arena erupted in cheers from the players.

Kobe showed a gentle smile, high-fived and bumped shoulders with every Lakers player.

When greeting Zheng Long, Kobe even leaned into Zheng Long's ear and joked: "If I knew that the Lakers still have the Western Conference Finals to play this year, I would definitely not have retired last season."

"You gave Lakers around the world a big surprise."

"Magic boy." (Wonder Boy)

Zheng Long blushed a little rarely, even though he was proud, he was a little embarrassed to face Kobe's unscrupulous praise.

But before Zheng Long said anything, Kobe stood up again and looked at the Lakers generals who were looking forward.

This shows that Kobe is not here just for himself today.

What Wharton said next also confirmed Zheng Long's thoughts.

"Gentlemen, this is the surprise I have prepared for you today."

"It can be regarded as the super foreign aid I called for our team."

"Kobe will lead everyone to train together today, and will teach you how to deal with the Western Conference Finals."

"If any of you are still hesitant and nervous at this moment, you can go to Kobe for psychological consultation. However, I can't guarantee whether he will be able to give you good advice. After all, every time I went to him before a game to tell him that I was nervous, I would win. A scolding."

"Maybe. This is Kobe's way of consolation?"

Walton's words made the Lakers players laugh. Kobe was indeed consistent in the media. He was very strict with himself and his teammates.

Kobe raised his eyebrows and smiled at Wharton's teasing: "Your coach is right. Psychological counseling is indeed not my specialty, but I believe there are no cowards in this team. Cowards have long been eliminated."

Under Wharton's organization, the players started warm-up training. The players practiced freely, shooting long shots, controlling the ball, and making free throws.

"I didn't prepare a training match for everyone today, keep fit and wake up my muscle memory. From today to tomorrow's game, I have to make myself nervous."

After Walton's mother nagged a few words, he and Kobe "patrolled" in the arena together.

It's like a teacher talking to students one by one.

The two kept finding players and went to an exclusive room in the arena together to have a conversation.

Seeing Butler being taken away by the two, Jokic couldn't help dragging the basketball to Zheng Long and Ingram who were training together.

"Brother Long, what do you think Kobe would say when he asked us to go over there?"

Zheng Long was very helpless: "How do I know this? Don't be lazy, go to train by yourself."

Jokic curled his lips: "Brother Long, you are too cowardly. What are you afraid of? The Western Conference finals will be played tomorrow. The most important thing is to relax your mind today. If you are too nervous to sleep tonight, you will be finished tomorrow."

"So it is more necessary to consume energy in training, you are too excited."

For Jokic, Zheng Long has never been aggressive. This white and fat Serbian fat man is always smiling.

after awhile.

Butler came back alone.

Jokic leaned over to ask Butler what he was talking about, but was turned away.

From a distance, Zheng Long saw Butler raised a middle finger to Jokic, as if to say, don't disturb my training, fat man.

But Jokic didn't make trouble for too long, because after Butler, Kobe and Wharton came out together and took the little fat man away.

Ingram gasped and said, "Brother Long, is Kobe feeding us chicken soup?"

Zheng Long pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Probably not. According to Kobe's character, he can beat his teammates hard in the Olympics and inspire his teammates' fighting spirit. It is estimated that it will be an oppressive incentive."

"Oppressive incentives?"

"Well. It's to put pressure on you and make you want to win."

".Isn't it scary?"

"."

One by one, the players were called to talk, Zheng Long was the last one.

Ingram, who just came back from the office, winked at Zheng Long.

It seems that just as I guessed, I went in and directly approved?Knock knock?
Zheng Long followed Kobe and Wharton into the office with a flat expression.

The two sat at the other end of the table and motioned Zheng Long to sit down.

This posture.

It kind of smells like an interrogation room.

The two didn't speak, Zheng Long didn't speak, and Wharton was smiling. Obviously, he was only playing an auxiliary role in today's conversation.

Kobe, on the other hand, looked at Zheng Long with his deep black eyes.

In Kobe's eyes, Zheng Long can still see a strong desire to compete, even if it's just a look in the eyes, there is a feeling of hope that the other party will surrender.

This is a pair of eyes belonging to competitors.

Zheng Long didn't deliberately reveal any emotion in his eyes.

"I'll get straight to the point Zheng Long, do you think you can lead the team to win the Warriors and advance to the finals? Do you think you can win the finals and win the championship?"

"Yes Yes."

Zheng Long answered Kobe's question with two consecutive affirmations, targeting the first and second questions respectively.

Kobe was a little surprised by Zheng Long's concise answer.

Compared with Wharton and the Lakers players, Kobe doesn't know much about Zheng Long's usual personality. Basically, it comes from the media and some interviews.

The Zheng Long he portrayed from those interviews is indeed unruly, special, and full of arrogance.

But it's completely different from what I imagined.

He is more confident than he imagined. Either conceited or self-confident.

His determined tone was as if the fact that he could lead the team to the championship was an imminent fact.

The atmosphere froze again.

Unlike the gentleness when we first met, Kobe at this time also gave Zheng Long a completely different feeling.

After all, meeting and talking at this time have completely different meanings and purposes.

He seemed to be looking for a "breakthrough", but Zheng Long's "impeccability" made him "unable to start."

Wharton saw that the atmosphere didn't seem right, and it was time for him to appear on the stage: "Dragon, Kobe came here today to cheer everyone up. You can ask some questions about your experience in the Western Conference Finals."

Zheng Long also wanted to cooperate, but after thinking hard for a while, he could only shake his head: "I have no problem."

I really don't have any questions for Kobe.

I have a lot of respect for him in my heart.

But what is there to ask?
Throwing the ball into the basket is what I need to do in the Western Conference Finals.

Wharton froze for a moment, showing a wry smile. He called Kobe over today because he wanted Kobe to motivate the players. After all, every time he nagged, he became an "old woman" to the players.

Perhaps some fresh forms can have better results.

Kobe smiled.

He no longer pretended to be serious: "Boy, you remind me of when I was wearing the No. 8 jersey. At that time, I was exactly the same as you. Even if O'Neal was on the team at that time, I would never Before big games, go to him and ask about any experience."

"At that time, I only believed in myself, and I felt that I could deal with all difficulties and problems encountered."

"Since everyone can solve problems by themselves when they encounter problems for the first time, then I can too."

Zheng Long nodded, Kobe's statement was indeed consistent with his inner thoughts at this time.

Kobe was ready to stand up: "That's it, I will go to watch every game in the Western Conference Finals. I will be on the sidelines of the court and watch you win the Warriors game after game. I believe you can do it. .”

Kobe said so.

Zheng Long also felt that he needed to be polite.

But the long-lost sound from the system sounded in my mind.

"Congratulations to the host for activating the mission - peak Kobe Bryant duel."

"Mission Objective: Win the peak Kobe single-handedly."

"Mission reward: a god-level badge."

Ok?
Zheng Long didn't expect the system to cheat the corpse suddenly, and a blockbuster popped up, single-handedly challenged the peak Kobe to win the god-level badge?

The question is not how to win the best Kobe.

Instead.

At this time, all the Kobe Bryants in front of me have retired. Where can I find the peak Kobe Bryant?
The system quickly responded to Zheng Long in his mind.

"When the host initiates a one-on-one challenge to Kobe, Kobe's physical fitness and functions in the one-on-one challenge will return to the most perfect state."

such.

understood.

Zheng Long bit the bullet and stood up: "Mr. Kobe, I do ask you to do me a favor."

Kobe couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, and said, "No problem, just ask and talk!"

Wharton's expression was surprised, Zheng Long would actually use Please with someone?

Zheng Long: "I want to challenge you."

Kobe:? ? ?
Wharton:? ? ? ? ? ?
