Why can't everyone understand it? That's because, Kobe Bryant speaks Spanish!

Don't think it's incredible, Kobe Bryant is actually a talented man with a good language talent, he is fluent in English, Italian, and Spanish. However, the language was not learned from Gasol, but with his wife, Vanessa, who is proficient in English and Spanish. Therefore, Gasol and Kobe Bryant can often be seen communicating tactics in Spanish on the court, so that the other party cannot understand and achieve the effect of timely command.

This is definitely not a lie! Gasol has repeatedly said that he and Kobe Bryant have tactical exchanges in Spanish, in order to make the opponent completely incomprehensible and confused. Secondly, after the retirement of the original space-time Kobe Bryant, he once participated in a game played by the tycoon Carlos. Slim's event in Mexico. Then he spoke directly in Spanish in front of an audience of more than 10,000 people. At the same time, he also answered a lot of questions from reporters in Spanish. This is enough to prove that the number 24 can speak fluent Spanish.

There are several reasons why Spanish is used here.

One is that for the sake of secrecy, he doesn't plan to release the news yet, he wants to be like the Bulls Jordan back then, and then make a statement after winning the championship. Primordial space-time? That's no way, the Lakers' record is a mess, but if they want to buy tickets, they can only make a gimmick, which is the so-called "farewell season".

The second is to show respect to Gasol and at the same time tell him, hey, only you can understand that.

It's definitely a great way to impress, and the power of a foreign country and a native language will be magical.

When Gasol heard this, he also asked in Spanish, "What did you say?" Bryant? What do you mean? ”

"I said." "This is my last season, and I'm going to retire after this season," Bryant said. ”

"So, I don't have another season to wait, just now."

"How, how is that possible?" Gasol seemed to be struggling to digest the news, saying: "You've been doing so well this season, your injuries are completely unaffected, why should you retire??? I don't understand??? ”

It's normal not to understand, but Kobe himself knows very well what is going on.

Rumors have it that he made a trade with the Devil and replaced it with a Devil's Achilles tendon, so he can rejuvenate and play a new career high this season. This speculation, in a sense, actually makes some sense.

Because Tang Qian made it clear to him that the price is to overdraft all the career life in the future in exchange for a season of peak.

And it's the pinnacle of all rounds.

Kobe Bryant didn't feel at a loss, because it wasn't his wish to play so long.

After a few years of half-dead breathing, it is better to do it vigorously! One last gamble!

But he couldn't say these things, so he could only reply, "Paul, you should treat me as if I really made a deal with the devil." So believe it or not, I'm only left with this last season, the last dozen games. ”

"There's no need for me to lie to you."

"Really, really?" Gasol knew that the No. 24 in front of him was not a person who liked to joke, but this news was too shocking. Playing so well, retire ??? Do you really want to learn Chicago 23?

"Really." Kobe nodded.

"That's why you didn't renew your contract for a long time? The management has drawn up the contract, and you haven't made a statement? Gasol asked, as if thinking of something. Bryant didn't answer, but the expression spoke for itself, and Gasol guessed correctly.

That's what he intended.

Since it is the last season, there is no need to pit the management's money anymore, and it is good to leave more salary space for the team in the future.

This, after all, is the team he has been in for half his life.

"You don't think about it anymore? Isn't that too wasteful? ”

"There's no need, it's already settled, so Paul." Kobe Bryant looked into Gasol's eyes and said, "If you want to win the O'Brien Cup with me again, if you want to stand on top of the world with me again, please do your best." ”

"I know, that's not your limit, is it?"

"I ...... I ......" Gasol smacked his mouth a few times, suddenly changed his expression, and said seriously, "I see." ”

"If this is really your last season, I'll do my best to help you."

"Okay, let's play, we need the real you." Bryant Road.

"Well, I will, Bryant." Gasol nodded.

What's going on??? What are both men talking about??? Well? Can Gasol understand? Spanish???

Bryant also speaks Spanish??? Tang Qian hadn't heard much about this before, maybe he didn't pay much attention to things off the field. In fact, don't talk about him, who understands the Lakers bench area? This is simply a "friendship crit".

Gasol's heart was greatly satisfied.

See! I'm still the person Kobe Bryant trusts the most right now! The most relied on partner!

"Hot, we'll talk about it later, this season, go all out to win!" Gasol turned his head and said suddenly.

"Well, I can't ask for it." Although Tang Qian didn't know what Kobe Bryant said to Gasol, it was obvious that the Spaniard began to recover mentally and began to revive spiritually. This is really godly, amazing.

The bond of friendship on the basketball court made Gasol sober, because he also knew that his peak honors were all given by Kobe. There's no reason why a friend shouldn't step up when he needs help the most!

This reason is really appropriate.

Back on the court, Bryant began to pause his individual offense a little as he had to rest and recharge for the final few minutes.

And now on the field, it is obvious that the opponent's inner line is the weakest link, and if you don't play for nothing, you won't play.

Opponents always play with the Lakers' weaknesses, and the Lakers can take advantage of it tonight. The pattern of more than 60 games in the first half of the season needs to change a little. The Lakers don't have a reliable twin towers in front of them, and Don Submarine + Thackeray are just temporary tops. The latter's ability, whether offensive or defensive, is definitely inferior to Paul. Gasol's. Now that the Spaniard is back, as long as he can play his true strength, then the Lakers' interior line will suddenly be strengthened by several percent.

And it is a comprehensive reinforcement of both offensive and defensive ends.

Gasol took the initiative to hold the ball inside, and Tang Qian opened up the inside space on one side, so that the former could fully do low-post movements.

Gasol turns, small hook hand, brush ~, goal!

Steven. Adams defends hard and aggressively, but with this soft flow of technique, the limit is not very effective. Overcoming rigidity with softness also exists in the NBA. How did Big Dream shave O'Neal's head in the finals? That's the case.

Thunder offense, Reggie. Jackson broke through and shot and was interfered with by Tang Qian, and the basketball fell to Steven. Adams's neighborhood. The latter takes the ball and makes a second offensive shot under the basket.

Tang Qian didn't have time to move the ball, but the Spaniard didn't play soy sauce like before, resisted the opponent's impact, and then straightened his long arm and used his super arm to barely fan off the shot.

"Well done!!"

Kobe Bryant held the ball and attacked quickly, and chased it to a three-point shot, which was 15 points short of the opponent.

Durant soon shot out of Kobe Bryant with color, and there was no way to do this kind of ball, even if Jordan came, he could only interfere, and there was basically no possibility of a frontal block.

"17 points! Don't try to turn the tables! Durant said strongly after scoring that he would never allow the situation of No. 9, 2 times in a row. Otherwise, this will be greatly detrimental to his MVP selection.

The Lakers positional battle was still handed over to Gasol, who turned low and inserted his footsteps. Adams stubbornly blocked the former, and at the same time said in his mouth: "Don't think about going in again!" ”

Gasol's body has always been "soft" and "weak" for performance, but he is not without a male rise, such as this ball, he forcibly resists the opponent's body collision, and then hits the board into the net! The referee blows the whistle!! 2+1！！！

Yes！！！

Gasol yelled, and Tang Qian was surprised to find that he had actually entered "The.Zone".

It seems that Kobe Bryant's communication with him has worked wonders, and it has suddenly made the previously sluggish Spaniards look new. This situation, of course, is what the Lakers need most right now. After Tang Qian's scoring ability goes down, Gasol can make up for it in time and become the new main point of attack at the right time.

In this way, Kobe Bryant can form a situation that echoes inside and outside, and the Thunder team will not dare to be so unscrupulous to wrap up No. 24.

Durant dribbled the ball again, but the ball was defended by Kobe, and the Lakers' No. 24 steals the ball the moment he shoots. Lakers Fast Break !!

Bryant drew the defense and passed to Wesley, who was keeping up. Johnson, who made a layup, but within a second of his shot, a blue figure flew out of thin air from behind and gave it to Wesley. Johnson a big hot pot.

Kevin. Durant!!! Nice closure!! We contained this fast-break break from the Lakers!! ”

Before the words fell, the basketball was picked up by another Lakers player who followed him, and then attacked the basket and hit it against the Thunder's basket. Beep~, the ball goes in!! opportunities!!

Tang Qian stood on the free throw line, brewed for a while before making a move, brushed ~, and the basketball was actually "lucky" to get into the net.

With Gasol's 2+1 just now, he is now only 11 points behind the Thunder!!

During this time, the Lakers' offensive and defensive rounds were extremely good, destroying the Thunder's previous offensive momentum in one go.

Fisher missed a three-point shot, and the defensive rebound was not to be said, Tang Qian grabbed it, and then lost it to Farmar to dribble through the court.

Kobe Bryant passed the ball inside, Gasol pushed it in the low post, and then turned and cut into the breakthrough!

At this time, Gasol's ability was revealed, why could he, as a big man, burst into near-perfect ability in a triangle attack? The ball intelligence and strategy ability are simply the peak level of the No. 4 position, and there are few No. 4 positions in the league that are stronger than him. The basketball went straight from the inside basket to the bottom corner three-point line. Farmar makes a three-pointer.

Brush~

Go !! again

It's only 8 points!! In less than 3 minutes, the Lakers recovered an 11-point deficit in one go!!

The Thunder didn't even score anything other than Durant's 2-pointer.

In this case, Thunder head coach Scott. Brooks naturally called a timeout, and after the timeout, he did send an all-starting lineup. It can be seen that he also has lingering feelings about the last game.

The twins began to enter a tug-of-war, both sides were not giving in to each other, and until now, no one wants to lose.

In fact, the Thunder team still has some advantages, after all, the Lakers still have outside holes, Wei Shao and Durant, they can't fully take care of it. If Kobe Bryant defends Durant, he will inevitably let go of Westbrook, and if he defends Westbrook, he will definitely let go of Durant. This is a largely unsolvable game. And apart from the Heat, no one has an offensive and defensive perimeter star, which is one of the Thunder's biggest strengths.

The score difference has been maintained between 7~8 points, the shooting rate of both sides has been significantly reduced, and the rhythm has gradually slowed down.

And this is obviously the rhythm that the Lakers are more accustomed to.

Because they not only have Kobe, a super master of attacking, but also the inside line of the twin towers, and even the latter is the key to defeating the Thunder team.

Why? Because of the positional battle, it was originally a more favorable rhythm for the big man.

Gasol continued after entering "The.Zone" and didn't fall out, so he was extremely strong on the inside. Coupled with Tang Qian's strong rebounds and two hard offenses, the Lakers' interior completely overwhelmed the Thunder's interior. Ibaka began to defend the Spaniards alone, so the situation of the Thunder team tended to be passive. But fortunately, the Lakers' outside line can't prevent their outside line, so the two sides are inseparable, and the scene is very intense.

This is the result of joining Gasol.

Not to mention the increase in stable attack points, the interior defensive hole has also been reduced by one, how to say that Gasol is also a master of basket protection. 1.7 times in his career! That's pretty good already! And his single defense and co-defense ability are also incomparable to Thackeray.

With Gasol, the Lakers can be regarded as a real bucket formation on the inside, and Tang Qian can increase his range as much as possible, without worrying that once he is transferred out, he will be blown up by the opponent's basket. Gasol's defense has always been good, and it may not be up to the level of interior defense, but it is definitely above average.

So the strength of the Lakers has improved a lot all of a sudden.

The number of holes has also been reduced from 3 to 2, and the inner line has become a seamless existence.

The Thunder team fought a lot harder than before.

Even if they can blow up an outside position for the Lakers, whether it's Durant or Westbrook, they are not the type of super scoring explosion. In other words, give them unlimited firing rights, and under normal circumstances, it is difficult to cut a particularly high score. Wei Shao is still in the growth stage, not to mention the 50+ behind, he has not scored 48 points now.

The Lakers have the advantage on the inside, and the Thunder have the advantage on the outside, and they are not playing well.

Seeing Gasol score another inside hook, the head coach of the Thunder shouted loudly on the sidelines: "Defend him, keep an eye on him, and the Lakers can only rely on Kobe!" Stare him to death! Sergi !! "It's not that easy to say, but it's not that easy to do, because Gasol is now the same as the first three quarters. The competitive state is also in "The.Zone". Ibaka wanted to contain it alone, and it was a bit difficult.

And his strength is to assist in defense, not single defense, after all, his height and tonnage are there.

Gasol's single killing ability is very strong, after all, he is the first killer of the FIBA inside, even if he can't fully play in the NBA, he wants to single Ibaka after the state breaks out, and the success rate is not low. Ibaka's one-on-one defense is actually not as good as his stats seem.

Until the last two and a half minutes, the Lakers were still 6 points behind their opponents, and at this time, the Lakers' No. 24, who had rested for most of the quarter, began to stand up. He first forced a one-on-one one-on-one Westbrook to score, then defended Durant on the defensive end, turned around and leaned back again. All of a sudden, the difference in score was only 2 points.

Fortunately, the Thunder still had Durant come out to continue his life, hitting a three-point shot, and re-widening the score gap to 5 points.

Kobe missed the shot, Tang Qian flew the rebound, and then let Gasol get it, and the height advantage of the twin towers was directly displayed from here. Gasol is not Thackeray, he is also a perennial existence with 10+ rebounds. Even in the next few years, when I am over 35 years old, I will still be 16+11+4+2, and the data will be all-powerful. He and Tang Qian from last season can make any interior combination in the league uncomfortable, let alone this season???

Tang Qian, who has 21+ rebounds, plus Gasol, who still has 10+~11+ rebounding ability, suppressed the rebounds of the Thunder, which is a matter of course and reasonable. Otherwise, you think Ibaka is close to 9+ rebounds Steven. Adams has a 4+ rebound, what threat can he pose to Tang Qian + Gasol's rebounding???

With the guarantee of rebounding at critical moments, Kobe Bryant played more relaxed and confident, his key ball this season was a pervert, and now because of the strong guarantee of rebounding, he is more decisive and decisive.

In contrast, the Thunder team has panicked a lot, and besides, they have not had a good time playing key shots.

Even if there is a Durant, it is a drop in the bucket and cannot save the overall situation.

And he has to compete with Kobe Bryant this season for the balloon key ball, which is really too far away.

It was almost the same finishing mode as the previous game, Durant shot 1 of 4 at the last moment, Kobe Bryant shot 3 of 4, and Mr. Key went head-to-head and came to an end. Mr. Key for the Lakers, crushed Mr. Key for the Thunder. No. 24 finally made a back-to-back jumper and used a gorgeous and beautiful shot to kill the Thunder.

The Thunder missed the attack in the last 7 seconds, Durant was entangled by Kobe, and the basketball could only be played by Russell. Westbrook makes a move.

And when he compares with Durant, he is much less threatening, and his projection skills are not of an order of magnitude.

About 31% of three-point shots, which is Wei Shao's approximate three-point shooting rate this season, not to mention particularly ugly, but definitely not very good-looking. Basketball broke the basket, and the Lakers narrowly defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder by 2 points.

He continued to improve his win to 18 consecutive wins.

After the game, Durant was so angry that he didn't attend the press conference, but Kobe Bryant was in a good mood and said:

Congratulations to my brother Gasol on his official return! Becoming second in the West is not the end, this is just the beginning.

It's just the beginning.

The rest of the alliance, you just have to wait and see.

The Lakers are now in second place in the West, with a 3.5-game gap left behind the Spurs, who are first in the West.
