Chapter 13: Shaq Is Done!
"I'm Michael Jordan of the Lakers! All the things that Phil has given Jordan, should be given to me! Whether it's the championship ring, the leader's status, or that damn Song of Solomon! ”
Kobe Bryant was very angry, he didn't like to read these books at all, he was so angry that Phil didn't treat him like Jordan.
"Song of Solomon" is about black people, Sun Zhuo is also very strange why Phil Jackson sent himself this book, saw Kobe Bryant angry and realized that he actually enjoyed the treatment of the god of basketball, or in the eyes of the Zen master, in the NBA circle, the yellow-skinned Chinese Sun Zhuo is the object of discrimination, maybe the Zen master wants Sun Zhuo to fly in this place that does not belong to the Chinese!
……
On November 1, 2003, the Lakers visited Phoenix City to challenge the Phoenix Suns, since the Suns traded Kidd for Marbury, the team lost the soul of winning, last season, the Suns got rookie Stoudemire, a guy who defeated Yao Ming and won the best rookie, this season, the Suns will also struggle very much.
The visit of the giant team is also a kind of enjoyment for the fans of the Suns, in addition to O'Neal and Kobe, some people even mentioned Sun Zhuo.
"It's a pity that the Lakers' No. 24 didn't play today, and he was injured in training? I was expecting him to do something amazing in the second game. ”
"Yes, his performance in the first game was really amazing, if he can continue to play like this, I think the Lakers can lock the championship in advance, who can compare with them, there are O'Neal, Kobe, Karl Malone, Payton, and the best rookie, it's simply impeccable!"
"Not necessarily, the Lakers are indeed strong on the surface now, but the internal contradictions are not small, Kobe Bryant was competing with O'Neal for the boss, and now this rookie has come out again, hehe, Kobe will be very uncomfortable."
Kobe's Eagle County incident caused a lot of uproar, and when Kobe Bryant appeared, there were a lot of boos at the scene.
However, this just stimulated Bryant.
Kobe Bryant entered the offensive state at the beginning, scoring 30 points in the game, and O'Neal also handed over 25+15 data, and the OK combination easily defeated the Suns and won two consecutive victories.
"Congratulations on winning this game, you have gained 100 experience points, the level has been upgraded from level 2 to level 3, and speed, power, long shot, mid shot, passing, ball control, rebounding, blocking, and dunking have each increased by 1 statistic."
The Lakers won, even if Sun Zhuo didn't play, he also gained experience points and rose to another level, it seems that the level in the early stage is still very good, and all the data have also been slightly improved, however, because Sun Zhuo did not participate, and he did not get the single achievements of scoring king and assist king, he did not get potential points.
Potential points can quickly make a certain ability reach the maximum value, if Sun Zhuo has enough potential points now, he can instantly make a dunk or other stats reach the maximum value set by the game, and there is no need to wait until he reaches the full level.
After the game, Bryant was interviewed by reporters.
The reporter asked: "Congratulations, Kobe, you look very scrappy today, you scored 30 points, in the last opener you were absent, your teammate, Sun Zhuo also scored 30 points, but today he missed the game, when can I see you play together?" If he plays well, will it affect the number of shots you make? ”
Kobe Bryant has always been steady in the face of the media, and said with a smile: "You should have seen Sun's performance, he has a strong sense of rebounding, and he can see through the opponent's defense and intercept passes, but he doesn't have too strong individual scoring ability, isn't it a perfect combination for such a player to partner with me?" He's in charge of rebounding and stealing, and then he gives me the ball and I'm going to score, hey, listen, we're going to be a perfect match, he's not badly injured, he'll be on the court tomorrow in back-to-back games, you look forward to it! ”
Sun Zhuo was stunned when he heard it, he didn't expect Kobe to be the same as O'Neal, and he also wanted to partner with him, O'Neal regarded Sun Zhuo as a substitute for Kobe, and Kobe also wanted to use Sun Zhuo as his biggest helper in the future.
"The two of them are blatantly robbing me!" Sun Zhuo was secretly shocked, he thought that Kobe Bryant was hostile to him.
Back in the locker room, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant were both asking if Sun Zhuo would come back next.
Kobe Bryant pointed to Sun Zhuo's feet and said, "I think you should be fine now, you can play the game, come back from the game." ”
O'Neal also said: "That's right, brother, you are a contender for this year's rookie of the year, we will help you, play the Warriors tomorrow, and then let the opponents see your superb prediction." ”
Sun Zhuo has only been promoted to level 3 now, and he will not rashly use the game to repeat the challenge card, but he does not dare to come back easily, the most important thing is that now the Lakers have won two in a row, according to the game setting, the team has won three in a row, Sun Zhuo will get a level 10 experience card, five consecutive wins, will get a level 20 experience card, ten consecutive wins, will get a level 30 experience card!
Now that the OK combination is so strong, Sun Zhuo can continue to truce and win another game, and it is not too late to come back when the team wins three consecutive games and gets a level 10 experience card!
Sun Zhuo hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I think my comeback should be cautious, I still don't want to participate in tomorrow's game, let's play the next one." ”
Phil Jackson saw that the OK group wanted to pull Sun Zhuo to play together, and also helped him speak: "Well, it's not a big deal to come back late, or I'm completely ready to come back again." ”
As soon as the coach spoke, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant didn't say anything more.
The next day, the Lakers will return to Los Angeles to face the Golden State Warriors.
In 2017, the Golden State Warriors were thrilled, loved or hated by countless fans, and you can't deny that the Warriors have become the most talked-about team in the NBA.
But in 2003, the Warriors were far from having such an influence, and the one who could make a little impression on the team was the dunk king Jason Richardson, who happened to have not played today, and the others were naturally not the opponents of the Lakers' Big Four, and the Lakers easily defeated the Warriors and won three in a row.
After being promoted to level three, the amount of experience required seems to have increased, and it is not possible to upgrade to one level by winning a game, after this game, Sun Zhuo is still level 3, but he got a level 10 experience card.
"Congratulations on winning three in a row, rewarding a level 10 experience card, which can have level 10 attributes within 24 hours after use, and is valid for 30 days."
With level 10 attributes, it can be said that Sun Zhuo's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, and now with this experience card, Sun Zhuo can finally come back to play!
It just so happens that LeBron James has continued to slump in the last two games, scoring only 8 points on 2-of-13 shooting in a game and only 7 points on 3-of-11 shooting, and both of them played more than 40 minutes.
Although Sun Zhuo said that level 10 is not particularly powerful, it shouldn't be too difficult to score 10 points in a game, right? In addition, O'Neal promised to pass the ball to Sun Zhuo, but with Kobe Bryant, it is impossible for Sun Zhuo to imagine that he scored 30 points in the last game, and he will not have so many balls, so that he will not get the potential points.
However, at this critical moment, there was an uproar within the Lakers!
A conversation when Bryant was arrested and interrogated in Eagle County three months ago suddenly came out!
……
Policeman: "We're going to do our best to respect your image, we're not going to ruin your basketball career, but for now we have to work hard." You arranged a knee surgery with a specialist in Weir City without notifying anyone, including Lakers management, and the night before the surgery, you invited a 19-year-old woman named Caitlin Fibel to your hotel room near Edwards and had a reluctant relationship with her. ”
Bryant: "No, I don't, I mean, is there anything I can do about it?" (e.g. money). ”
Bryant: "Well, I did have sex with her, but it was on her own terms. ”
Policeman: "Even if you volunteer, you have a wife, and you're such a celebrity." ”
Kobe: "What's wrong with that?" Shaq did it too! ”
