The Lakers' first away game in eight consecutive away games was the Detroit Pistons.

This can be said to be the beginning of a nightmare.

When the Lakers lost to the Pistons in 2004, who suffered the maximum firepower attack?

Everyone on earth knows it is Kobe. In the five finals, he averaged 22.6 shots with a shooting percentage of 38%, which is 2 percentage points lower than Allen Iverson in 2001. But in that situation at that time, the loss must be put on his head. Later, the Sharks ran away and did not mention it. Kobe took too much action, and the Sharks tirelessly hinted that his companions did not pass the ball.

Kobe's failure to pass the ball has become a popular meme.

Later, every time the Lakers played against the Pistons, Kobe pursued a team basketball strategy that was passed first.

He just wants people to see if he doesn't take the blame for a lot of shots, can he help the Lakers win?

The answer is no, at least today.

In the first away game, in the game against the Pistons, the Lakers' scoring was limited to below 80 points.

This is rare in the golden attack era.

Kobe scored 13 goals in the whole game, less than Wei Xia. Wei Xia made more shots, but his shooting percentage was low. He didn't know what happened. He was very excited and excited, had a strong desire to perform, and his explosive power was comparable to that of the team's No. 24. He contributed a representative ironwork of 5 of 22 shots in a single game.

With this battle, he successfully asked Kobe to carry a bag of rice, and learned how many floors his teammates were feeling and thinking about his infinite iron and his confidence soared. After three minutes of profound reflection, the answer was: Where did Wei Xia's face come from, dare to take action 22 times with such a bad touch?

After the game, Kobe asked Wei Xia why he had to shoot so many goals.

Wei Xia naturally refuted Kobe: "If you didn't insist on winning the game by passing, if you shot 33 times tonight instead of 13 times, do you think I have a chance to shoot 22 goals?"

He beat Kobe back politely.

Losing to the Pistons was the beginning of a nightmare for the Lakers.

A few days later, the Lakers went out of public office, located in Toronto, against the Raptors.

Seeing the Raptors' team logo, Kobe cheered up and made his opponent relive the 81-pointer.

81 points are not something Kobe can come just as he wants. Due to his poor touch, he led the Lakers to lose to his opponent 92-94 with his efficiency of 10 of 30 shots and claimed two consecutive losses.

"The most terrifying thing is that Kobe has become a fence-bearer. He suddenly doesn't know what is right or wrong. He reduces his shots, and the Lakers can't win the ball. He takes a lot of shots, but the Lakers still can't win the ball. Now they have fallen to sixth in the West. If they continue to lose, it is very likely to fall out of the top eight in the West."

The media's evaluation came to the forefront. Kobe, who was wearing No. 24, hoped that he would be different from the No. 8 period. He was already 28 and a half years old, eager to prove that he was mature.

Reducing actions and not being able to show off is his mature approach.

Before the Lakers suffered a large-scale injury in the inside, he was praised for reducing his attacks. Now, the inside can no longer support the team. Kobe, who has reduced his attacks, has made him unable to find the offensive state of encountering gods and killing gods. It is rare that a lot of attacks are not touching, and the media criticizes him again.

The media is really cheap, and the way to change the situation is disgusting.

But Kobe himself is responsible for the matter to this point.

If it weren't for his amazing offensive performance in the regular season last year, the outside world wouldn't have had huge expectations for his super god mode. It can be said that it was himself who brought the media and fans' expectations of the Lakers to a height that should not have.

Two days later, the Focus Game, the Lakers vs. the Cavaliers, and the league played the title of 23     VS       24 for the first time in history.

ESPN pre-match serial interview, TNT nationwide live broadcast, the media frantically searched for topics about Kobe and James.

On the night of the game, James played a game with the collaboration between Waisha and Kobe.

4 of 19 shots. If the home referee is not strong and he is allowed to stand on the free throw line 12 times, he will get single digit points.

While Wei Xia and Kobe locked up James, one scored 34 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, and the other scored 26 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists, and the shooting percentage exceeded 50%.

A perfect dance, but the result of the competition was not satisfactory.

99 to 90

When James was completely defeated, the Cavaliers beat the Lakers by 9 points.

James' personal offense was locked, but he did a good job in instigating the entire team, with 13 assists in a single game.

The Cavaliers' inside line completely dominated the game.

In contrast, only Wei Xia and Kobe scored in double digits.

The Cavaliers' winning point is undoubtedly the inside.

The Lithuanian scored 2213, Drew Gooden scored 15 points and 9 rebounds, and the most amazing one was Andre Valaijo, a Brazilian known for his softness, faced the Lakers' No. 4 position, and acted like Kevin Garnett at his peak. He appeared from the bench and robbed 17 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists like a bandit, making the Lakers' inside scalp numb.

Wei Xia and Kobe scored 60 points together, reaching 2/3 of the team's score, with a shooting percentage of over 50%. Then, because the inside was blown up, the team did not have a third person except them to score in double digits. Odom's outrageous state and 7 mistakes in a single game helped the Cavaliers win the game like a god.

Three consecutive losses!

Kobe was extremely angry. Even Odom was his friend since he was a child and could not stand it: "When Lamar was on the court, we played five and four in both offense and defense. Once the ball fell into his hands, he acted like a Cavaliers player!"

Wei Xia also said tactfully: "Some of our players are in poor condition."

The Zen master who is used to the strong winds and waves pretended to be profound: "This is the 'process' of the Lakers becoming the championship team again."

I hope Kobe won't be driven crazy until the "process" is over.

Two more days later, the Lakers have two games left before the All-Star Weekend arrives.

This game was played by the New York Knicks.

Madison Garden is a big stage, Kobe likes the big stage the most. He has lost three consecutive times. He can't even lose even the Knicks, right? They are from the bottom team.

In the past few years, Knicks Isaiah Thomas has been a series of funny jokes and surreal reality shows.

The Smiling Assassin has superhuman imagination and an unusual big heart, dares to make decisions, has the courage to swallow big contracts, the ambition to form a super team, and recreates the vision of "showing him" the Lakers and the almost crazy gambler style.

As the general manager of a wealthy family that takes some effort to rebuild, it is not a good thing to have these things at the same time.

The same goes for the result. The smiling assassin achieved everything impossible, making the real story so ridiculous, and making the silent love die of death 13 years, and he still talked about it with so much relish.

The game that night was a bit dramatic.

The Lakers and the Knicks played a stalemate that had not been seen for a long time.

The smiling assassin, who fired four coaches in a row, picked up the coaching stick again under the boss's order, and he brought out a ridiculous and fearful team.

What's ridiculous is that this team is targeting the championship at the beginning of the season, but judging from the record, it seems to be full of hunger for Greg Oden or Kevin Durant. Let's look at their draft pick reserves. Well, this team's record is so bad that it has long since replaced its first round in 2007.

Just looking at the lineup, Jamal Crawford, Stephen Marbury, Quentin Richardson, David Lee, Steve Frances, Nate Robinson... They are all heroes, the lineup reserve and personnel depth are not bad, but when the whole building is picked up, it is a shoddy project, and there is no doubt that it is an outstanding representative of "a gathering is a piece of shit, and a scattered is a star" in the 2000s.

Even a piece of shit that gets together has the determination to disgust the Lakers.

The Knicks made full use of their inside advantage and took turns to attack. At the last minute of the game, the Knicks led the Lakers by 1 point.

At the critical moment, Kobe defeated the throat with one sword and helped the Lakers take the lead again by 1 point.

The smiling assassin shouted a pause.

At the end of the timeout, Crawford played against Wei Xia, and made an amazing continuous dribbling behind the scenes.

What kind of team, what kind of people are there?

When is it still showing here?

Teams that dare to show up at critical moments are either too strong to find excitement, or they are at the bottom of the record without pressure. The Knicks are a weirdo with two traits and are capable, but the head coach cannot use it for the best of their own. They are at the bottom of the ranking and feel that they are a strong team, and they have played the slogans for the championship.

Such a team that is capable, ranks at the bottom, and wants to win the championship, and the ball holder is willing to show off, so the viewing ability is naturally unspeakable.

Crawford showed off Wei Xia, crossed the defense, and passed Curry behind.

Curry picked up the ball, waved his 230 cm arm and scored a dunk, and the Knicks took the lead again.

The Lakers called for a timeout back, but Kobe didn't receive the ball, and Weisha was inconvenient in the bottom corner. The resourceful Smash Parker handed the ball to Odom, who was as weird as a roller coaster.

Odom used the unpredictable "Gan Lin Mother Who knows what this is" dance step, and Curry flew away and threw it.

Then, David Lee, who was the least likely to serve as a defense block, jumped up with all his strength, caught up with the ball that took off, and the cap was out of bounds, and time just reached 0.

Beep!

The Knicks narrowly won, giving the Lakers four consecutive losses.

The most bizarre thing happened.

Wei Xia and Kobe are doubting life. The Knicks who won the game were shouted at everyone: "We are-"

"Champion!!!" Eddie Curry spoke like a mentally retarded person.

Then, they surrounded each other: "We are—"

"champion!"

Everyone shouted together.

Kobe was stunned, and Wei Xia felt a twitching in her lower abdomen. The pain of losing was not as good as the joke at this time.

He laughed quickly.

Kobe is even more suspicious of life: "%!￥!~￥%!@"

After a swearing Italian swearing, Kobe sighed: "What kind of evil did we do to lose to such a team?"
Chapter completed!
