Almighty Athlete Chapter 21: Don’t let the Lakers make the playoffs

Kobe said he would return in the playoffs

"According to the Los Angeles Observer, Kobe said in an interview that the body has recovered 100% and is expected to return in the playoffs."

"Kobe Bryant was reimbursed last season for a ruptured Achilles tendon, and many people are not optimistic about his prospects for a comeback, but he is Kobe, basketball is his life. On December 9, Kobe returned to the stadium successfully, although His level has not yet recovered, but people still expect him to gradually recover his status and lead the Lakers to recover. However, Kobe's comeback may be a bit too hasty. In the battle with the Grizzlies on December 18th, his knee was Tony- Allen pushed it a bit. Although Kobe insisted to finish the battle and led the Lakers to win, this ball became his swan song this season. Because of a knee injury, Kobe announced a truce for eight weeks, and then because of slow recovery The truce continued, and he only played 6 games throughout the season."

"Kobe's return is obviously good news for the Lakers. Lakers President Bass also said that this is an encouraging thing. Kobe's return can allow the Lakers to go further in the playoffs. !"

......

"But first, we're going to the playoffs!" D'Antoni pointed to the content in the newspaper and then said: "Which idiot published this report at this time? Why didn't he wait one day, wait until Let's enter the playoffs and publish the news! They are now disclosing the news, isn't it forcing the Spurs and us to die! Are you sure this is our Los Angeles reporter, not another team sent to commit crimes? ?"

"This reporter probably wants to help us boost our morale." Kupchak said tangledly.

"What happened to Kobe? Is he really going to come back?" D'Antoni continued.

“I’m afraid yes. You also know that the doctor’s conclusion was that if the recovery is good, Kobe can resume training in eight weeks, and no later than three months. The current Kobe should have been completely Restore it," Kupchak said in a pause, and then said: "Actually, I did not expect Kobe to choose to come back in the playoffs. When we had a bad record a few days ago, he also went to Europe for a holiday and put it on. It’s clear that I’m not going to play this season, but I didn’t expect him to change his mind temporarily...”

D'Antoni understands the meaning of Kupchak’s words. If the Lakers record is still so bad, Kobe will definitely not come back, maybe he will continue to find a place for vacation, but now the Lakers are about to enter the playoffs, Kobe can Just couldn't bear it.

This is also human nature. When the team has a poor record, the players are not motivated to play, and when the team wins, the players will play harder. When the Lakers had a bad record, like Gasol, Nash, and Kaman performed very well, there was nothing to win at all, and they often even expressed uncomfortable truce; and now look at Gasol and Card. Man, playing the ball is really desperate, Nash has always been asked to play.

The same is true for Kobe. Before the team had to mess up, Kobe couldn’t go back and try his best. Instead, he continued to cultivate. Anyway, he signed a two-year contract with the team at the beginning of the season, and Kobe didn’t need to be next year’s contract. And worried.

But as the Lakers' record is getting better and better, and gradually approaching the playoff threshold, Kobe is finally unable to sit still, especially after entering April, Kobe, who was still on vacation, regained his heart. Starting recovery training, he is really preparing for the playoffs.

For Kobe, if you really have a chance to play in the playoffs, you must not miss it.

It was just this time that a reporter came to interview and asked about Kobe's playoffs. Kobe definitely can't say "I'm going to counsel, don't play in the playoffs", he can only show a confident look, even if his leg injury has not recovered 100%, but he has to pretend to have fully recovered Looks like you can play at any time.

Just because he is Kobe!

......

San Antonio, the training ground for the Spurs.

Vicky coach is on the phone with a reporter who has a good relationship with the Spurs on weekdays.

"Is this news true? Kobe's injury is all right?" Vickey asked with a frown.

"Even if you don’t have 100% recovery, you should be able to play! Wasn’t it captured by European media last month, did Kobe take a vacation in Europe? It looks like the action is no longer a problem. And I asked about Colleagues, Bryant returned to Los Angeles at the end of last month, and then Clark has been doing rehabilitation training."

"Clark? Is that famous rehabilitation trainer in Los Angeles?" Vicky nodded and then asked; "How is Nash's situation, is there any news on your side? It's been more than a month now, Nash hasn't Appeared on the field, is the season reimbursed?"

"Should not be. The Lakers gave news that Nash was in a state of injury, but in the last month, Nash has been participating in the Lakers' training. There are several away games, and Nash is also on the team, you should do this It’s already noticed. I think Nash’s current state, maybe he can play for more than ten minutes.” The reporter continued.

"That's it!" Vickey's brow furrowed tighter.

"Kobe Bryant came back, Nash returned, plus Gasol and Zhang Guan, how to make the Lakers come up with a new f4! Thinking back then, Kobe and Gasol were enough headaches, and now There are two more difficult guys. The Lakers in the regular season are a bit rotten, but God knows what they will look like in the playoffs, maybe a Kobe can beat an entire team, if in the season When we meet the Lakers in the playoffs, we may not necessarily win. No, the Lakers must not be allowed to enter the playoffs, they are too troublesome!" Vickey's eyes flashed hot.

......

On the evening of April 16, the last day of the nba regular season began.

The game between the Mavericks and Grizzlies was held in Memphis. Memphis is located in Tennessee, and is actually located in the southeast of the United States. If you want to divide it from the geographical location, the Grizzlies should be counted as the Southeast Division. The Oklahoma State, where the Thunder is located, is an authentic capital of the southwestern United States.

The game between the Lakers and Spurs will be held in San Antonio. San Antonio and Memphis are more than a thousand kilometers apart. If it is placed in normal times, the Memphis game may start San Antonio's game earlier, but today is the last day of the regular season. For fairness, the two games are scheduled to start at the same time.

The Grizzlies want to get promoted, and the Mavericks don’t want to meet the Spurs in the round. The two teams will definitely try to play.

The Spurs have secured the first place in the West, and the gdp combination began a phased rotation as early as a month ago, so many people think that the Spurs will definitely not be the main force in this game.

However, when the Spurs announced the order ~ IndoMTL.com ~ many people were surprised.

The five first players of Duncan, Parker, Leonard, Green and Split are all on the stage, and on the bench, Ginobili, Bellinelli, Mills, Dior, Jeff Ai Wes, Corey Joseph, Bonner, Baines and others also appeared in the list of players, such as Austin Daye, Damai James and others who did not appear on weekdays were released In the list of unactivated players, you should know that these players who don't usually appear in the game have the opportunity to play when the gdp is on holiday.

"The Spurs are not willing to let the Lakers go, they will die with the Lakers!"

"All gdp are on the court. Are the Spurs preparing to play in the playoffs early?"

"The Lakers are in trouble now, maybe they will miss the playoffs!"
