Kobe Bryant – my youth
Despite all the preparations, my heart was touched when the words of farewell came out of your mouth.
I know you're probably not as great as Jordan, he's the god of basketball. But in my eyes, I don't need to compare with Jordan, you are Kobe, you are the god of basketball.
I've only heard Jordan's legends, but I've never seen Jordan play. But I have watched you play, from ignorance and ignorance, to youth and frivolity, and now you have become more and more mature. Your figure runs through my youth.
I've seen your breakouts; I've seen your thunderous buckle; I've seen your elegant step-back jumper; I've also seen your back when you were powerless to return to the sky and left gloomily......
Maybe I won't remember what I was doing in a certain year, but I remember the year you were in high spirits and the year you ended up hateful.
When I first watched the NBA, the number 8 behind you was like a sharp sword.
It was also that year that the Los Angeles Lakers lost miserably in the finals, Malone retired, the sharks swam east, and the F4 fell apart.
After that, you carried the Lakers alone for three years. The number behind you has also changed from 8 to 24.
At this moment, you have washed away the lead and faded away from your arrogance, for the only sake of the O'Brien Cup, which represents the highest honor.
In 2008, two old rivals who had been entangled in grievances for decades seemed to have made an appointment, and they recovered at the same time.
You've got your best partner in the world – Pau Gasol. The Green Shirts in the east also form a formidable triumvirate.
The two old rivals met again in the finals, and the drama of yellow and green was intoxicating.
But in the end, what is remembered for this year's finals is the return of Pierce, the Celtics' 24-point super comeback, and your lost back......
Fighting again next year, the 23 and 24 Finals matchup is exciting just to hear, but Zhan Huang missed the appointment, and his team stopped in the Eastern Conference Finals.
You've finally won the championship and the Finals MVP, and all the halos of glory are finally lit up on you.
The long-cherished wish has finally come true, and the next year to defend the title can also be expected.
In 2009, the Los Angeles Lakers started the new season with the aura of defending champions.
At this point, you and the Lakers are already showing fatigue, but in the end, in another yellow-green battle, you win.
The championship ring finally filled one hand, but you still didn't let go of chasing the "god", and you were expecting a sixth championship ring.
On the way to chase the sixth ring, the Purple Gold Building collapsed. You didn't get your second triple crown or your sixth ring. The Zen master did not complete the fourth triple crown in a row. This year, the Los Angeles Lakers were swept out of the Western Conference semifinals by the Mavericks......
I didn't believe you would fall that year, I didn't believe that the Purple Mansion would be destroyed like this, and I still look forward to your sixth championship ring.
However, after this. First, the league halted the CP3 transfer, and then the "brother is awesome" combination failed, until your "fatal" Achilles tendon rupture......
When you insist on the free throw and limp off the field. I really realized that the Flying Heroes ...... Old. You're no longer the one who can score nine threes in a row and 12 threes in a single game; You can't score 62 points in the third quarter, even 1 more than the opposing team scored; You can't score 81 points in a single game anymore; You can't take over the game and blow everything up anymore......
But as long as you haven't served old age, there may still be hope.
However, this time. From your mouth, the words of the old man are finally spoken.
Great, like Jordan, can't beat time; A strong shark can't break free from the shackles of time after all; You, at last, have fallen under the magic of the wheel of time.
After 20 years of wind and rain, you have left too much for this alliance, and too much for me.
Your ups and downs have run through my youth. In other words, you are my youth.
When I heard that you, Kobe Bryant had retired, I didn't know what kind of feelings were brewing in my heart. I want to cry, but I can't shed tears. I want to laugh, but I can't laugh.
When was the last time you felt this way?
It seems to be a time to fall out of love.
When the Lakers were swept by the Mavericks in '11, I was looking forward to the next reincarnation. I also look forward to you to keep playing, and play for a year, and win the championship for a year.
But, it's a dream, and it's just a dream. You can't win all the time, you can't keep fighting, and now it's time to say goodbye.
When you talk about retirement, every game the Lakers have left this season is a farewell show.
You've got 40+ stats on every team in the league. Now you can enjoy cheers and applause in every city......
There is no eternal dynasty, and there is no eternal king. All this, together with our youth, will pass quietly and then be quietly ...... Bury......
PS: Regarding Kobe's retirement, I have feelings. I'm done writing it, and I'll send it to everyone to see!
