"Why are you here?" Li Hao asked when Kobe came to his home.
"I'm here to take you on your last journey," Li Hao said.
"Asshole, I'm just retiring," Kobe said, pretending to be angry.
"I have been waiting for this moment for too long," Li Hao said.
"I know that the person in the world who wants me to retire the most is you," Kobe said.
"Okay, let's go." On April 13, the NBA15-16 regular season ushered in the last game. This was also the last game of Kobe's career.
On this day, there is only one name in the United States and even the world, Kobe Bryant.
On this day, Los Angeles was flooded with media from all over the world.
On this day, Los Angeles gathered attention from all over the world.
There is no way, Staples is so big, only 20,000 people can actually enter the stadium, and tickets have long been hard to get, and even if you spend money, you may not be able to buy them, or even afford them.
You know, there are rumors that the seats on the sidelines have been sold for 50,000 US dollars, and even if you pay 50,000 US dollars, the family may not be willing to give them up.
You know, today's Staples can no longer be described as star-studded, but a sky full of stars, because Kobe's old teammates alone have more than 20, not counting retired Lakers and even Kobe's other friends.
Even Russell, the King of the Rings, has come to Los Angeles. In terms of football, retired Beckham also arrived in Los Angeles with his son.
But today, no matter how many celebrities and celebrities come, they can't steal Kobe's limelight.
………………………………………….
The last time I came to Toyota Sports Center as a player, the last time I stood on the training field of Toyota Sports Center as a player.
Kobe is still focused, but as teammates, Li Hao and others cannot be as focused as Kobe. Some people are already thinking about where to go on vacation, some are thinking about where to go to hunt for women, and some are thinking about how to let them go. He becomes stronger in the summer.
Some people are reluctant to give up, while others hope that Kobe will retire soon. Everything in this world has two sides.
The passage of time is not slower than usual, what is supposed to come still comes.
Tens of thousands of fans had gathered outside Staples, and Lakers players arrived at Staples Center.
…………………………………………..
In fact, today's process has not changed because it is Kobe's retirement battle. The pre-game press conference and warm-up are all the same as usual. It's just that compared to usual, there are more media today and more celebrities come to watch. Then there is the fact that everyone’s eyes are focused on Kobe.
Normally, Li Hao would be the focus of everyone's attention, but today, Li Hao was rarely ignored. Li Hao didn't even care about it. He even sneaked out to meet his childhood goddess when no one was paying attention. One side.
Lin Xilei, who immigrated to Los Angeles with her family since she was a child, is an out-and-out Lakers fan, and she even interacted with Li Hao on Weibo.
This time Sina invited Lin Xilei to Los Angeles to film a documentary about Kobe Bryant's retirement battle.
Li Hao was not interested in Sina's Kobe Bryant retirement battle documentary. The reason he agreed was because he wanted to meet his childhood goddess.
Hong Kong in the 1990s can be said to be full of goddesses. Unfortunately, most of these goddesses were already married when Li Hao grew up, but even if he was not married, he would not have the opportunity to meet them.
So this time Li Hao can be regarded as realizing his dream and making up for his past regrets.
In addition to meeting the goddess, Li Hao will also accept an exclusive interview with the National Sports Channel today. There is no way, it would be nice to have an exclusive interview with Li Hao instead of Kobe Bryant.
Needless to say, Kobe's traffic is nothing but after today, Kobe is the past tense, and Li Hao is the future of the Lakers.
…………………………………………….
The competition will start soon. Li Hao has really fulfilled his childhood dream and met the goddess for a year. Although the goddess who is over 40 years old cannot compare with her youth, she is already well-maintained.
After a brief chat, Li Hao returned to the locker room. Not long after Li Hao returned, Scott arranged his last tactics for the Lakers this season.
"Pass the ball to Kobe" simple and clear.
In fact, looking at the Lakers' games this season, the so-called tactic is to give the ball to Li Hao, otherwise it will be Kobe.
Soon the players from both sides returned to the court, and the moment Kobe appeared, everyone at the Staples Center stood up and gave a huge cheer.
mvp—mvp—mvp.
And Kobe will enjoy this kind of treatment for the whole game. After the game starts, there are such cheers almost every time Kobe touches the ball.
Every time Kobe touched the ball and every goal he scored, the fans cheered.
However, today's Lakers' first goal came a bit late. It was not until three minutes into the game that Kobe broke the deadlock with a long two-pointer near the bottom corner and a signature fadeaway.
Today, Li Hao has been completely a dribbling point guard for a while. No, Li Hao is now playing the third position as a dribbling forward. He and Russell share this responsibility together with Li Hao.
The fact that the Lakers didn't score in the opening three minutes had something to do with Li Hao, because once again Kobe attracted a double-team and passed the ball to Li Hao. As a result, the guy didn't shoot directly, but waited until Kobe was not double-teamed and then passed the ball to Li Hao. The ball was passed back.
Then Kobe showed his death glare on the court for the last time, but Li Hao was not afraid of Kobe's death glare at all. Li Hao's behavior even gained support from the fans in the audience.
Facing the "betrayal" of the fans, Kobe looked helpless, but soon Kobe found a way to let Li Hao shoot.
"Damn it, do you want the last game of my career to end in defeat?" Kobe said. What else could Li Hao do?
Well, Li Hao still has a way. In the next time, Li Hao will only take action when there is a real big gap. As long as there is someone within one meter around him, Li Hao will resolutely return the ball.
Although Li Hao struggled offensively, he was very desperate defensively and directly locked up the Jazz's e-sports warrior Hayward.
It was also with the help of Li Hao that the Jazz did not open the point difference to 15 points at the end of the first half as they did in the first half. At the same time, Kobe was also in good shape with the bonus of Li Hao's badge and the support of his teammates. skyrocketing.
At the end of the first half, Kobe scored 30 points alone, while the Lakers only had 22 points. The Jazz's Hayward, who was guarded by Li Hao, only scored 4 points in the entire first half, which accounted for a fraction of the team's score. .
At 54:52, the Jazz only led the Lakers by 2 points in the first half.
In the original timeline without Li Hao, the Lakers fell behind by 15 points in the first half, but in the second half, Kobe began to catch up, and finally completed the lead in the score at the end of the fourth quarter, which was even more dramatic than the movie.
But this is the charm of basketball, but according to the current score, this Hollywood movie-style plot should not be staged.
"Will this make Taiping miserable?" Li Hao couldn't help but think during the intermission.
