"You haven't lost yet, what are you doing with your head down?"
There was no tenderness in the voice of the person who spoke.
Wei Xia looked up at the source of the voice, naturally it could only be him.
"Don't scold me?" Wei Xia seemed to be pleading, "I'm not ready yet."
"ridiculous!"
Kobe snorted coldly: "Does everyone who criticizes you have to wait for you to be mentally prepared? How old are you?"
"Second" Wei Xia immediately added, "I don't mean to be disrespectful to the lama, but many media say that I am the second child of the Lakers, so you, the boss, should give me a little face, and you are right, people who criticize me will always give me time to prepare mentally."
Kobe didn't ask who it was, he guessed it right away.
Phil Jackson's habit is not to point out the problem immediately on the night of the problem, but let the players go back to calm down and point it out the next day.
He suffered a lot back then, and Wei Xia became the successor.
Moreover, Jackson is even more perverted than he was back then.
Back then, Jackson would find trouble with him on weekdays, and he would still find other people's problems when he had nothing to do.Since the Lakers entered the palace for the second time, and Wei Xia joined the team, he seems to have found a fresh target and prey.Usually, it is almost to the point of not caring about other people.
Except Wei Xia and Kobe, no one knows what it feels like to be educated by a Zen master.
And the Zen master's enthusiasm for Wei Xia has become morbid, and Kobe guessed that this matter has something to do with Wei Xia.Wei Xia just has the level of improvement he had back then, but he is not too rebellious. Unless the reason for accountability is too outrageous, he will just sit there and listen to the respect and then play a better performance to make people shut up.
Zen master absolutely loves the process of showing each other color.
Look at Wei Xia's current appearance, if he is scolded by Jackson immediately, can he survive it?
Kobe originally wanted to comfort him, but found that he was so sad that he rarely saw him. For some reason, he wanted to sprinkle some salt on his wound and fulfill his duty as a leader.
If it was Michael Jordan, wouldn't he do it?
He sure will.
"Then you're going to be disappointed, I'm sure I'm going to scold you, you played so well in the regular season, how did you become so soft in the playoffs?" He really spoke.
Wei Xia thought of the answer: "I'm not used to being taken care of suddenly as a key person."
"I didn't expect that this could also be a reason for inaction." Kobe sneered and shook his head.
Wei Xia disagreed with the second half of his sentence: "Am I not doing anything?"
"The offensive end is almost useless, don't you think it's okay?"
"Although it did not fulfill people's expectations, it can't be said that it is useless, right? There is still an average of 10 points per game."
"You averaged 20 points per game in the fucking regular season!"
Kobe's precise strike made Wei Xia's face quickly turn gray, and he became depressed again.
If it hit him too hard. Bryant decided to leave the rest to Jackson.
"However, you did a good job defending." Kobe's comeback was faster than a chameleon, "I didn't play well when I was your age."
Wei Xia's eyes lit up: "You also lost half of your points per game like me?"
"That's not true. I averaged 30 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists in the playoffs that year, and my shooting percentage was 46%."
Fortunately, this guy became a player. If he were to become a negotiator, how many suicide victims would he chat with in a month?
Wei Xia said with a dry smile: "Thank you, I was encouraged."
※※※
After Kobe's encouragement, Wei Xia felt much better.
Kobe was indeed of the same age as him at the time, but the former was already in his fifth season at the time, so it cannot be generalized.
Wei Xia believes that he has improved in the past few years, but he has never met a real stubble in the playoffs.
In retrospect, in the four games, the Jazz gave him a lot of high-post shots. Except for the first game, he failed to grasp them for various reasons in the other three games.
When under heavy pressure, he tends to drive into the penalty area and make free throws.
If he was emptied, he didn't shoot the ball as calmly as usual, and the away game atmosphere in Salt Lake City was so strong that it was almost suffocating.
That's an atmosphere that Staples Center doesn't have.
The Jazz have all the cool colors, loud, energetic fans and defensive-oriented teams that the Devils should have in an away game.
They are not the same as last year's Suns.
Being hit in reality, Wei Xia went to the 60s to find confidence.
The Celtics in the 1963-64 season led the All-Star weekend strike movement. After their demands were met, the whole team focused on the championship.
Bob Cousy retired, they didn't even have a point guard, but they still achieved the league's first record: 59 wins.
In the first round of the playoffs, they faced the rival Cincinnati Royals in the East.
The Royals, like the Lakers in the West, face the Celtics, the biggest headache is the inside.In the past, their inside line was always dominated by Russell, and this year they got supernova Jerry Lucas. It's time to turn over the history of being humiliated by Green Kai.
However, the reality is skinny.
Can they be sure that Lucas is the hero who stepped on the seven-color cloud to save the world?
Lucas is a short center, and he has no advantage when he meets Russell, and the matchup between the two is almost blown out.
The Royals were counting on him to come back a game, and he couldn't even do it.
The confident Royal team suffered heavy losses in turn, but their combat power was not as good as last year.
Oscar Robertson didn't know what kind of witchcraft, his presence on the offensive end was greatly reduced, he was superstitious about shooting, and the paint area was completely given to Lucas.
Later Weixia learned that it was the Cincinnati fans who assisted them.
Whenever Robertson got the ball, he would hear the fans yell, "Nigger, pass the ball to Jerry and get the hell out of here!"
Regardless of what the fans thought, he did anyway.
With the full confidence of the league's top five superstars, Lucas paid homage to Bob Cousy, who retired last year, by shooting 39 percent from the field, down just 11 percent from his regular-season levels, and averaging 12 points and 12 rebounds per game.
With a center playing at this level in front of Russell, Lucas' disappointing performance eventually knocked the Royals out in five games.
At the moment when the series ended, Robertson's expression was cold, and he was not surprised by the result.
He wasn't even angry about losing the series.
As far as he's concerned, those stupid white guys asked him to pass the ball to Lucas, and he did.
He believed that he must have satisfied the white ghosts, and he didn't care if Lucas satisfied them!
Wei Xia privately thinks that this is the biggest gap between Robertson and Russell. In terms of talent alone, no defender of his generation can match him.He is like Chamberlain among guards, with an epoch-making body and style of play, he can completely dominate all guards for 10 years.
But after thinking about it, Russell has an equally great team and a head coach who supports him to the end, and the only big O is himself.
What if Big O and Russell switch positions?
After the night of the All-Star weekend strike, Wei Xia believed that Big O had the same strong mental strength as Russell, but he was not as suitable for his team as Russell.
The Big O and the Royals went far.
Wei Xia remembered how Lucas' performance knocked the Royals out.Lucas degenerated in the playoffs just as he did against the Jazz.
Is he going to follow Lucas' script?
Endless panic woke Wei Xia up.
He opened his eyes 15 minutes before the alarm went off.
Those thoughts, those possibilities, those things that worried him were not impossible.
If he can't clean up his mood and improve his mental strength, what is the difference between him and Jerry Lucas who is easy to sway in front of pressure?
In order to reflect on himself, Wei Xia came to the Toyota Center early in the morning.
He doesn't go to Jim Buss territory because the hoop at Toyota Center is closer to the texture of Staples Center.
Little Buss cares about the luxury and advanced training facilities, as long as the expensive ones are not suitable, it is not suitable for Wei Xia at this moment.
From 12:30 in the morning to [-]:[-] in the morning, Wei Xia kept shooting, picking up, shooting, and picking up the ball, as if to overdraw his anger.
"If you go on like this, you will get hurt," Gary Vitti reminded.
Wei Xia grabbed the ball with one hand, showing off the big paws that Kobe envied, "That's better than losing the series because of my poor performance and leaving psychological trauma from then on."
He practiced for another half an hour, and didn't go to eat until one o'clock.
What surprised Wei Xia the most was Jackson's reaction to his poor performance.
According to the past rhythm, a half-hour meeting is certain.
Today, he actually said: "Wish gave his best on the defensive end, but you didn't provide him with strong support on the offensive end. I hope you can make it clear that this is his second season. If you expect him like Kobe, we will definitely fail!"
Wei Xia was about to burst into tears, he almost cried.
"Of course, Wish, your offense is still a piece of shit, I hope you review it." Jackson is still the same Jackson.
You thought he had changed his gender, but in fact he just suddenly realized his conscience.
Wei Xia took a deep breath, "Well~~~"
Compared with the level of meetings in the past, the intensity of Jackson's meetings for Wei Xia today is almost nonexistent.
After the review meeting, a group of teammates surrounded Wei Xia.
"You sold your ass to Phil?"
"You knelt before him?"
"Did you lick his feet?"
How can this group of souls who don't believe that there is true love in the world understand the bond between him and Phil Jackson?
Although, he didn't know what medicine Zen Master took wrongly today.
