Spraining the ankle is an injury that players are prone to, not necessarily the opponent's foot, and it may be twisted when you land on the ground when grabbing a rebound.

Kobe Bryant was depressed, and if he really did take two weeks off as the team doctor said, he would have to play eight games less. If the Lakers fail to break the regular season record for this reason, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

After thinking about it, Bryant called Phil Jackson and offered to play with an injury.

Jackson refused. "No, you have to take a break, it's just the regular season, it doesn't matter how many games you miss, it doesn't affect the final result. If you go out with an injury and the injury gets worse, we won't be able to defend the title without you in the playoffs. ”

"But ......"

"No, but we have already discussed the countermeasures, Derek [Fisher] will come back next game, the opponent is not very strong in this game, you don't have to worry about the record, you have to trust your teammates." Jackson said solemnly.

The coaching staff wanted to keep Fisher on the regular season and back in the playoffs, which would be safer. The plan is not as good as the change, now Kobe Bryant needs to rest more, and in the absence of people on the outside, Fisher was ordered to play in advance!

Guo Xu can complete the outside attack with the ball, which does not affect the team's triangular offensive tactics, but the power is slightly reduced, and there is one less powerful single attack point.

The biggest shining point of this arrangement is that no one needs to take the risk of a serious injury or season reimbursement, except for Fisher. (Fisher: I have a sentence that MMP doesn't know whether to say or not!) ）

Soon, Guo Xu also received a call from Kobe.

"Jason, you must do your best, try not to lose before I come back, preferably not to lose a game, if you lose more than three games I will play with you."

Guo Xu replied easily: "Don't worry, this wave of opponents is nothing big." You think too much, rest assured that you are recuperating at home, just take this opportunity to let your parents see Vanessa's feelings for you, don't worry about the game. We're going to win, because Shackle's girlfriend is pregnant, and he's in good shape. ”

“……”

The ascetic O'Neill is an absolute opponent's nightmare, and in Los Angeles O'Neal thinks about his image and hardly goes to nightclubs. As long as he is there, the Lakers have the backbone.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Kobe Bryant also missed 14 games because of an ankle injury, in order to fight for a better playoff position, Fisher returned early and played well, and finally the Lakers guaranteed the winning rate, only two games behind the Spurs in the second place in the West, beating the Kings in the same district and gaining the home advantage in the playoffs.

In fact, Kobe Bryant was absent, Guo Xu was still a little excited in his heart, and he was finally able to make a move.

After he improved his strength, the ball possession did not increase much, and he could only guarantee about 15 points per game, with occasional explosions. Kobe Bryant is injured, Jackson will definitely allow him to shoot more, and then he can use these two weeks to average 20+ per game.

There will be some sensory gap between the player's average of 19.9 points per game and the average of 20 points per game, and most fans like whole numbers, and Guo Xu is no exception.

Just like Yao Ming's 08-09 season, he averaged 19.7 points, 9.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.9 blocks per game, such data is no different from 20+10 players in terms of court role, but it is a kind of torture for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Studies have shown that Sagittarians are prone to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and there is more than one.

Guo Xu has a freewheeling obsessive-compulsive disorder that can't help but want to play games and take risks, thinking that freedom is above all else.

He also has obsessive-compulsive disorder to eat and drink, and he must eat well every day, preferably three dishes and one soup, and usually prepare a lot of snacks.

This kind of person will of course also pursue more beautiful statistics when playing, and now the opportunity to break out has come.

The next morning the Lakers practiced in the team, Fisher officially returned, Jackson also decided to let him be the starter, and Guo Xu continued to be responsible for bringing the bench. Everyone was happy with this arrangement, Fisher felt valued, and Guo Xu could also make a move.

The Lakers' opponent in the evening is the Celtics, who currently have a 27-36 record and are outside the playoffs. Jackson wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to play the underdogs to get Fisher to find his form. Guo Xu must come off the bench next, which is conducive to the second quarter, and he and O'Neal work together to ensure the team's offensive firepower, each with a bunch of role players.

The Green Army is a team led by "twin stars" Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker, with Jamal Crawford as the sixth man.

After starting ten games, Crawford is back on the bench. Green team coach Jim O'Brien wanted him to play as a point guard, but soon found that his style overlapped with Pierce's, requiring offense with the ball to play, and his playmaking skills were mediocre.

If Crawford plays the starting No. 2 position, he has no ball possession, and it is too wasteful to be a fixed-point pitcher, so it is better to use him like the Lakers reuse Guo Xu. This person really had 666 written on the door of his head as soon as he entered the alliance.

The game was broadcast live only on the Los Angeles local station.

Lakers starting five: Fisher, Bryan Shaw, Fox, Grant, O'Neal.

Celtics five: Randy Brown, Bryant Stich, Pierce, Walker, Mark Blunt.

In the first quarter, the two sides launched a dull defensive battle, the Green Army constantly wrapped O'Neal in the low post, and O'Neal selflessly distributed the ball for the role players to shoot, and the effect was mediocre. The Green Army relied on Walker and Pierce to go head-to-head, and the others pulled away to attract the defense, and there was no tactic at all.

Guo Xu was anxious for his teammates when he watched from the sidelines, especially the level of Brown in the No. 1 position of the Green Army was too poor, with a height of 188CM and a weight of 86 kg. Fisher didn't take a single step when he received the ball again, and continued to pass, which played a role as a remedial.

Fisher doesn't act like a point guard, he is a pure fixed-point shooter, he doesn't shoot when he doesn't have a good opportunity, Fisher is resting on the defensive end, and the main defender doesn't run at all.

Brown averaged 23 minutes per game, had only 4.1 points and three assists, shot 42.2 percent from the field, and didn't shoot three-pointers at all. This kind of person can only be a marginal person in other teams, and he is a starter in the Green Army.

Brown was able to get a job because of his fame. He joined the Bulls in '95 and participated in the second dynasty of the Bulls, although his stats during his three-game winning streak were not worth mentioning at all, and he was also known as the "championship puzzle". If you want to say which player he most resembles the most, it's Fisher. Fisher is all on the plus end because he can shoot threes.

Guo Xu thought he would play soon, but Jackson seemed to forget about him, allowing Fisher to play the whole quarter.

The Lakers led 23-22, O'Neal was trapped in the bag, did not take many shots, 2 of 5 shots, 1 of 4 free throws, got 5 points and 1 rebound, Fisher performed decently, 1 of 3 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, 4 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

Grant had 8 points, Fox had 6 points, the Lakers had more blossoms, and after O'Neal was trapped, they got good shots, and Fox moved the ball quickly and also handed out four assists.

Both sides made substitutions in the second quarter, with Green Walker continuing to play off the bench and the other four being Milt Perasio, Crawford, Eric Williams, and Vitaly Portapenco.

Lakers five: Guo Xu, Bowen, George, Horry, Madsen.

Jackson didn't arrange tactics, and only said to Guo Xu before the players came on the court: "The offense depends on you." ()
