Chapter 216 Become the sixth man of the year
Chapter 216 Becoming the Sixth Person of the Year
Because Phil Jackson asked Wei Xia to continue playing in the fourth quarter, the Lakers always retained a strong combat power on the court.
Although Wei Xia's offense is not as hot as Kobe, his touch is as hot as Kobe.
Although the fanatical Los Angeles fans shouted "We want Kobe!" throughout the fourth quarter, the Zen master still pressed Kobe on the bench. So Kobe's score was frozen at 62 points.
The Lakers players on the scene listened to the audience's demands, but Jackson didn't want to satisfy them from beginning to end.
Michael Thompson fired at Jackson: "All sportsmanship is bullshit. Kobe has the chance to score 70 points or even more today. It is a shameful waste to make Kobe give up the best game in his career for the so-called sportsmanship!"
"62 points in the third quarter, one more point than the Mavericks, this is Kobe tonight."
Kobe has always been recognized as a super offensive player, but his 62 points against the Mavericks are the only 60 points in his career so far.
It was achieved in such an amazing way, and failing to continue to improve the score will naturally arouse dissatisfaction among fans and protests from the commentators.
The game ended with the fans' unhappy booing.
In this game, the Mavericks lost to the Lakers 48 points and experienced a series of shameful records.
Only three players in the Lakers team scored in double digits.
One is Kobe, who has 5 rebounds and 7 assists in addition to 62 points in 3 quarters. Interestingly, his assist overlap rate with Wei Xia is very high.
Kobe's 7 assists were obtained by Wei Xia.
As for Wei Xia, he scored 30 in his third career game with an extremely high shooting percentage.
He played for 46 minutes against the Mavericks.
One minute off in the first half and one minute off in the second half, scoring 32 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists, making an infinitely close triple-double.
He is like Jamal Wilkes, who was in the Magic's rookie season. In the future, people only know that Kobe's three-quarter game is more than the Mavericks' team, and few people will remember his performance.
Even so, Kobe was able to share the highest score in a single game with McGrady, but Kobe's score was obtained in three quarters. From this perspective, it is definitely a wonderful way to end everything from the 4 seconds before the end of the third quarter, because it leaves people with more room for imagination.
Wei Xia's average data has thus risen to 16.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 4 assists.
He is second in the team per game, fourth in the team per game, second in the team per game, second in the team as the sixth man, which is a very good result.
45 minutes of playing time is also his career high.
Jackson's usage of him is really hard to understand. Sometimes he wants to suppress him so hard that he won't give him up. Suddenly he gives time. It seems that when playing 2k, he sets "automatic rotation" to "manual rotation", and every time he changes manually, he forgets to replace Wei Xia.
The first and second half were each rested for one minute, which was surprisingly neat.
Kobe's 62 points got him attention from the media. The reporters on the scene surrounded him, and Wei Xia slipped into the player channel directly, without being stopped by anyone.
He took a bath and changed his clothes with neat hands and feet, and his teammates congratulated him.
"I think you played no worse than Kobe today." Weaver whispered.
"Thank you, I dare not take it." Wei Xia was still sober.
Lamar Odom seems to have a good ear: "High humble young man, Kobe sets a record, you keep the record, and we are all proud of you!"
"What record?" Wei Xia didn't expect that he still had a record.
"The record of at least one person who was annoyed the opponent per game. Today it was Jason Terry, who was angry, and it was worthy of you, Visa." Odom laughed.
Wei Xia was very embarrassed. He didn't understand why he would become hysterical and angry when chatting with others. He clearly had no malice.
Later, Jackson took Kobe and Weisha to the press conference.
Kobe was still shot by the media, and everyone wanted to know what kind of mood he scored 62 points and what kind of mood he sat on the bench in the fourth quarter.
"The state came very suddenly. I didn't realize that I was setting a record at that time, so it happened naturally." Koru explained the origin of his record.
As for why he stopped playing after scoring 62 points, Kobe's explanation was that he wanted to rest.
In fact, Jackson needed him to sit down and rest. The game lost suspense. The Mavericks were out of the way. It was the time to let the team practice tactics. Kobe continued to play, and at most he had a few duo games with Wei Xia. In order not to become a sinner who prevented Kobe from winning 7080 or even 90, the teammates on the court would probably pass the ball to him at all costs, and expressed their determination and attitude from the bottom of their hearts, "Boss, we are all wastes, please take care of all the actions by yourself."
Jackson didn't want this to come true, so he replaced Kobe.
Kobe didn't want Jackson to get more criticism. He could have said "I have no objection to everything" such as "I have to follow the coach's arrangements." But he didn't say it.
His relationship with Jackson has indeed been resolved, and it is no longer as tense as it was in the ok period.
Hearing Kobe's explanation, the media were very dissatisfied. He could have created a larger record, but because he "wanted to rest"? This is the reason? This is a reason? Maybe 70 opportunities in his career are placed in front of you, and you can take them to rest in the field that Michael Jordan has not touched? What is it!
Journalists and media were disappointed with Kobe.
Finally someone pointed the microphone at Wei Xia.
They had no hope for Wei Xia, just as they were full of expectations for Kobe in the fourth quarter. Kobe could have created the possibility of appearing in the fourth quarter, but he gave up.
Wei Xia also had the opportunity to become Kobe in the Ok period, which made the entire Angel City fans like his darling, and he gave up.
Because he is so simple that people can't pick out any style and way of speaking, he has not received the exposure and influence he deserves.
There are still many fans walking on the street and unable to recognize him.
Because he has made it to the news too few times.
The last time he scored the highest score in his career against the Rockets, the reporter asked him what he thought.
Wei Xia replied expressionlessly: I am very excited.
So the news title of the next day was as follows: "The Lakers star won the highest score in his career, and he admitted that he was very excited."
Does anyone want to watch this kind of news?
Not to mention fans, the reporters who make this kind of news probably don’t even feel like finding a decent picture for Wei Xia.
Although Wei Xia has given up treatment and hopelessly weakened her media influence, some reporters who still do not hit the wall and do not look back with hope of 0.01 points.
They didn't believe that Wei Xia could remain calm forever.
"32 points, 8 rebounds, 12 assists, this is your two consecutive games to score 30 points, how do you feel?"
"not bad."
"12 assists in a single game are the highest stats in your career so far. How did you do it?"
"Thanks to Kobe, he ignored tactics and made many goals that shouldn't have been scored."
Oh, the reporter suddenly found out that this girl was not in trouble. Look, how spiritual the answers to the questions that are related to Kobe are!
Upon hearing this, a bitter smile squeezed out on Kobe's face.
The reporters vaguely felt that they had found a way, and each wrote down the tricks to ask Wei Xia: Be sure to ask a question related to Kobe!
"You only had one minute off in the first and second half. Will the intensity of 46 minutes of playing in the game make you feel too hard?"
"Just get used to it."
"Just get used to it?"
The reporters stared at me, what is the right thing to do?
Wei Xia was too lazy to explain, so she nodded and said, "Yes, just get used to it."
The reporter didn't want to ask where Wei Xia's habit came from. They still had a few thunder-like questions, hoping to get good feedback.
"This is your second time on the starting lineup. How is the difference between starting and substitute feeling?"
His answer was still very annoying, "I don't think it's any different."
The reporter finally couldn't stand Wei Xia's hesitant answer anymore, and they asked the most powerful question: "Although you are the sixth man, your average score, rebounds, and assists are among the top in the team. There are many fans and commentators who think you should be on the starting list. How do you view this?"
"I want to block their mouths."
Wei Xia's answer shocked the reporter.
Wei Xia's answer was not over. He continued: "I am still very young and will definitely have the opportunity to be on the starting list in the future. As for now, I have a more practical goal: to become the sixth man of the year."
He rarely says so much in front of reporters, and rarely leaves a message to reporters.
But today, he left two talks.
I like to criticize Kobe's attributes and to become the sixth best person of the year.
Wei Xia's words made Kobe look at him sideways.
In the Rushi cartoon, Phil Jackson's glasses should be sliding across a flash lens at this time, and then highlighting the depth of his eyes and the wisdom of the characters.
No one expected Wei Xia to say that.
Wei Xia expressed her intention to become the sixth best person of the year, which indirectly blocked the reporter's mouth.
From today on, no matter how good Wei Xia plays, it is hard for the reporter to ask Jackson when he will let Wei Xia play the starting lineup. People are going to be the best sixth player of the year. Isn’t it okay to ask about this again?
Jackson still had doubts about Weisha and Buss Jr.'s relationship was too close, but he was glad that the young man finally calmed down and did what he should have done.
When it was Jackson's turn to answer the question, the reporter did not ask when Wei Xia would start.
Before, Wei Xia played so well, they would not stop until they struggled for a few minutes.
Today they only asked Parker about his situation.
"Smash may have made a mistake, he will pay the price," Jackson replied.
As for Parker's starter during the suspension.
Jackson said in front of the media: "Before Smart returns, Wish will temporarily take over his position. You all saw it. He played well."
