Staples Arena, Los Angeles

The last game

The Warriors won the final game by 10 points 121-111.

The Warriors swept the Lakers 4-0 in the first-round series to advance to the second round.

This is the end of Lei Lei's rookie season, and Kobe's last season has also come to a successful end.

In the last game, Kobe Bryant did not score 60 points like in his previous life, but scored 45 points to hand in a perfect answer for his career.

The free throw starts, the free throws end.

Bryant walked to the court with a smile at the end of the game.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause.

Kobe Bryant picked up the microphone and choked up, and said with a smile on his face: "Hey guys, I can't believe 20 years have passed so quickly, this feeling is really crazy, I'm standing in the middle of this arena today, with you guys and my teammates behind me." I'm so grateful for all of this, for the past we've been through together, for the victories and failures we've experienced, and I think the most important thing is that we've always been together. ”

"I've always been a die-hard, I mean — I've always been a big fan of the Lakers, and I'm familiar with every game I've played here, every thing that's happened here. I was selected and then came here to train, and I spent 20 years here, and I can't think of anything better than that. ”

Bryant's eyes were slightly red after saying this, and his voice trembled.

Lei Lei put a towel on his head and didn't dare to look at Kobe Bryant on the court, because Kobe Bryant was his teacher, idol, and his best friend in the United States.

The two are also teachers and friends, supporting each other this season, he does not dare to look at everything in front of him, he feels that he is not capable of leading the team further.

Bryant adjusted his mood and continued: "What makes me more proud is not about winning the championship, but about those difficult years, because we didn't run away, we were never prepared to run away, we went through those tough years together, and then we did the right thing and won the championship again. ”

"All I can do is to thank you for your support over the years, thank you for not giving up, thank you for your encouragement!"

After Kobe Bryant said this, the audience shouted:

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

He waved at the fans, wept with joy, wiped away his tears, and continued: "You know, what's really funny is that for the last 20 years, everybody has been shouting for my passes, but in the last game they all said to me: Don't pass you know, don't pass the ball! Pitching and pitching, especially Lei Lei shouted the most, the relationship between the two of us I believe the fans know, I think it's crazy, Lei, don't put a towel on your head, your trembling body has betrayed you, the strongest guy actually shed tears, haha. ”

Lei Lei didn't take Kobe Bryant, got up and hid behind his teammates, not wanting to face everyone in the stadium and the fans in front of the TV.

Kobe Bryant smiled and continued: "This is really the most beautiful thing, guys, I really can't believe that the moment of my retirement really came like this, you will always be in my heart, I cherish this emotion very, very much, there are no words to describe the weight of you in my heart, thank you, this is the most sincere thank you from the bottom of my heart!" I love you guys!"

"I would like to say about my family, my wife Vanessa, my daughter Natalie, Yagina. Thank you for all the sacrifices you have made to support me, and for having to work and train as my wife, Vanessa, has taken on the responsibility of caring for the family, and I can't find any other way to express my gratitude to you. ”

Bryant mentioned Vanessa choking up again.

Vanessa, who was on the sidelines, covered her face and left happy tears as well.

Kobe Bryant looked at Vanessa and said, "So, I can only say one word from the bottom of my heart, thank you!" ”

He looked at all the spectators on the sidelines and said, "What more can I say? mamba out！ ”

Bryant finished speaking, put the microphone on the floor, walked to the bench and hugged his wife.

At this time, the fans in the stadium told and shouted:

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

“kobe！

！ ”

Kobe coaxed Vanessa well, came to Lei Lei's side, hugged Lei Lei and said: "The Lakers will rely on you in the future, you know, you are welcome to come to me if you have any difficulties, come on!" Bring the Lakers back to the heights where he belongs! ”

Lei Lei buried his head in Kobe's shoulder and said, "Boss, promise me!" Take care of your body, sit less in the helicopter, especially when the weather is bad, and don't force yourself to return! ”

"What do you say again?" Kobe Bryant was confused when he heard Lei Lei's words, and he didn't know why Lei Lei said this, but seeing his resolute eyes, Kobe still nodded and said: "Okay, I promise you, although I don't know what you mean, but I will keep your words in my heart." ”

At this time, Jenny and Jim also took the stage to speak, and they all told about Kobe's contribution to the Lakers, and Kobe Bryant left his youth in the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Lakers will always be Kobe's home!

After all the high-level speeches were finished, Kobe Bryant's retirement ceremony ended completely.

The Warriors players all hugged Kobe Bryant, numbering one by one.

Curry came to Lei Lei's side, punched Lei Lei with a smile and said: "There are few people who have played like this in the first playoffs, you are the first, I envy you, it's a holiday." ”

"Get out! It's embarrassing to let me go home to fish, and I'm still envious, I also want to attack the championship, you wait for next season, watch me make a comeback and kill you! ”

"Wow, wow, wow, this is starting to fight against me, but I took it, I will go to the Olympics to cheer for you!"

"You're not participating?"

"I'm not going, Thompson and Green will."

"Okay, come on for the next games, so I can get by losing to the champion."

"Lend you good words."

The two of them left separately after renewing their old days.

Lei Lei knew that today's protagonist was the man, and he silently walked to the player's tunnel.

"Ray! You are awesome! ”

A voice attracted Lei Lei's attention, and he saw that it was a boy, a little fat man with glasses.

"Ray, my dad and I both believe that you will take the Lakers further in the future, and one failure is nothing! Come on! We all believe in you! ”

Lei Lei smiled and said to the little boy, "Thank you!" Bye! ”

After Lei Lei left, the little boy shouted to his father: "Dad, did you see it, Lei heard what I said!" He responded to me! ”

"Son, I saw it, you are the best, you will be like Thunder in the future, work hard and not give up!"

"Don't worry, Dad, I will."

Lei Lei took a shower, changed his clothes, followed Zhanna home, and fell asleep.
