Chapter 176 [No hatred, who am I]
Phil Jackson was also incredible when he heard that Kobe announced the wedding time and invited everyone to attend.
After the competition, I also told the people in the coaching staff. "Phil, I hope you can be there. Although you didn't support me in getting married before, I know you are considering me. I really like my fiancée. I hope you can understand me. I will definitely not regret this decision."
Jackson was stunned for a moment and asked with a smile: "Did Jason teach you these words?"
Kobe nodded embarrassedly.
Jackson patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "We will definitely go there. I'm glad you can open your heart. Jason is more mature than you and is a good friend. If you communicate more with him in the future, you will definitely not suffer any loss."
Jackson had opposed it before because he heard that Kobe had a bad relationship with his parents and had no family to support him in early marriage. Kobe was not a high school student, and Jackson was not the director of the teaching department who stopped young people from having sex. After all, he was an outsider. If he had advised him not to listen, there was no need to care anymore.
Jackson couldn't understand how Guo Xu changed Kobe's stubborn idea. Since last season, facing people like Kobe who have three days of narcissism and two days of inferiority, he didn't know how to make him obedient and consult a psychologist.
The Lakers who are united in the locker room are invincible. In Guo Xu's previous life, the Lakers, who have a gap between the core, only lost to the 76ers in the finals in the playoffs, and now they are stronger.
On February 4, the Lakers beat the Kings, ranked second in the West 114 to 94 at home, with 4 players in the team 20+.
Veteran Ron Harper made a comeback, Guo Xu returned to the substitute lineup, and opened the score with Horry 15-3 in the second quarter.
Horry played for 25 minutes in the game, making 7 of 13 shots, 3 of 7 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, easily scoring 20 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. The Lakers' role players have such performances, and their opponents can't play at all.
On February 7, the Lakers beat the Suns 107 to 83 at home.
Guo Xu started, and his teammates were interested in creating opportunities for him. O'Neal pulled out to play pick-and-roll in the middle, causing him to misplace the position and blunder Chakalidis, and scored 15 points and 4 assists in a single quarter. This led to the subsequent games, the Suns coaches didn't dare to let Chakalidis play against O'Neal.
Because the team led too much, Guo Xu only played 26 minutes in the game, scoring 28 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists, and Jason Kidd, who had 14 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists. Unfortunately, the star vote has ended, otherwise he could still threaten Kidd.
The Lakers ushered in the All-Star Weekend held in Washington, the US capital, with a 15-game winning streak.
The NBA officials are working hard to make the All-Star Weekend more global and make it a festival for fans all over the world. A large number of stars interact with fans close to each other and participate in friendships to relax themselves, which is also a festival for them.
The Lakers Trident and Phil Jackson flew to Washington together, with Vanessa and Jenny Buss of the Lakers' management.
Kobe took Vanessa to attend the celebrity weekend with him and Guo Xu's advice. Let Vanessa sit in the front row, and the two show their love generously. If there is an interview with a reporter, the wedding will be announced, so that his parents will feel more at ease.
If a girl is trying to cheat money, she will not show up in such a high-profile manner. She will not be pointed out by too many people. It will be different if she shows her love. After the divorce, she will be scolded to death.
This is also a practical application of sociology. The two must be tied tightly on a boat. It is very simple to say. If Guo Xu is not a reborn person, he knows that they cannot disperse, and he really dare not come up with such an idea. There is no benefit for him, and he will still be responsible if something happens.
Jackson and Jenny Bass also went to show their love, and this older couple spent the weekend together without being bored.
Guo Xu didn't dare to call Meghan to go to the celebrity weekend. It was revealed by the media that it was not good for both of them. O'Neal didn't call Xiang Ni, who was pregnant at home, and set off alone. The two sat in first class, a little far from the two pairs showing their love.
O'Neal whispered: "I'm really puzzled, have you hypnotized Kobe? This kid doesn't look so annoying lately."
"Because he has no intention of competing with you, his attention is all about love, and you have been mocking him less recently." Guo Xu said with a smile.
"I can't stand that kid's narcissistic personality and always think I can challenge my position." O'Neal snorted.
"Shakel, your mentality must also change, otherwise you will definitely suffer in the future." Guo Xu decided to give his friend a vaccination first, and analyzed: "In fact, Kobe will definitely challenge your status one day, and I am the same. It's not that we are better than you, but because you are six years older than him and nine years older than me."
O'Neal was silent. He knew what Guo Xu meant. Players all age one day, and he was no exception. Moreover, players with larger weights were more likely to decline and could not run any day.
Guo Xu continued: "Phil never cares about your dispute with Kobe, because the reason why Kobe doesn't like you is that you are lazy and don't train hard, because he wants to prove that he is not worse than you. The coach probably hopes that there is some competition in the Lakers. If Kobe can stimulate you to lose weight to about 125 kilograms, your peak period will be longer."
O'Neal's body shape when he first entered the league was similar to that of the future "Warcraft" Dwight Howard, with stronger strength and able to dunk rebounds. Although this is related to the poor rebound quality back then, he is the only person who can do this in the NBA, and his explosive power is too strong.
He often had one-stop fast break dunks, which were not as fast as the defender, and no one dared to make an offensive foul when he rushed forward. His back attack was even sharper, and he turned and slashed with one hand. His power and speed were top-notch, so defensive players could only let him slaughter.
If you look closely at O'Neal's calves, you will find that they are very thin, but his upper limbs are more developed, even thinner than white and yellow people. This is why he looks fat but has an amazing speed. On the contrary, the "Big White Bear" Ostertag can't jump up.
Now O'Neal has become a big shot, with a clear strength advantage, but his explosive power is far inferior to that of the Magic period, and his speed has slowed down a lot. Even so, he performed a fast break in the star game last season and performed a 360-degree turn and dunk, which shocked his chin.
O'Neal sighed: "You are right. I will definitely decline one day, but the trainer said that I practice less and will help prolong my career. In fact, I pay great attention to my diet and I dare not eat donuts."
"I know, so I always support you. Let training or something go to hell. Just try to lose weight. Whoever asks you to practice more will harm you. Weight loss is necessary, otherwise you will be under too much pressure when you are young. You may be injured when you are 35 years old. I don't want to see you retire too early."
O'Neal nodded. He would focus more on basketball because Guo Xu was a peacemaker, and the OK group could not make a fuss. In fact, the two had no hatred, so they could only be considered disagreement, and their work relationship was relatively tense.
In Guo Xu's previous life, the OK group joined forces to reach the finals 4 times and won 3 championships. Is this what the enemy can do together? What really makes them break up is the sentence "Shakel did it too." As long as Kobe doesn't say this stupid word, the two of them occasionally quarrel will only motivate each other.
Guo Xu thought about it carefully, the relationship between the OK combination is quite similar to Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede.
