Chapter 207 [Kobe's wedding, preparations before the war]

On the 18th, Kobe was the most glorious person in the NBA and stole the limelight from the regular season. It was not that he locked in any award, but that he married today.

The reporters had not had enough interviews with the press conference yesterday. Today they were all paying attention to Kobe's wedding and continued to interview the players.

The Lakers coaching staff and players attended the wedding collectively, and several people came to the uniform team, including team doctors Gary Witty, Jenny Buss, Jim Buss, etc. Everyone was wearing formal clothes, giving Kobe a lot of face.

The wedding became very lively. So many people supported Kobe's decision, so Kobe's parents, relatives and friends would naturally not be absent. The atmosphere was completely different from the low-key wedding of 12 people in Guo Xu's previous life, and it was a joyful one.

Megan Fox was also invited to attend the wedding and became one of Vanessa's five bridesmaids because Guo Xu took Megan to Kobe's house twice and said a lot of good things for them, which completely gave up Kobe's parents to break up the couple.

Kobe's parents knew that they could not stop the wedding, so they said a few nice words from Vanessa in an interview, approving the daughter-in-law, and the media could no longer speculate and question.

The style, main color, etc. of the wedding were decided by Vanessa. On the afternoon of the 16th, they performed rehearsals for the wedding. The bride, groom, hostess, all the bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower boys, ring boys, pianists, assistants leading guests, and their families attended the rehearsals.

Guo Xu was the first American wedding in two lives. As the basketball master, he felt very accomplished.

The wedding began on time, and in the music, the best man, bridesmaid, flower boy, bride and groom and their parents entered one after another.

Kobe was a little nervous. He didn't blink so frequently when shooting key balls and was restless.

Looking at the five bridesmaids, Guo Xu couldn't help but want to complain that they were actually wearing black skirts, which was impossible in China.

The bridesmaid dressed up as Wu Qianlian's version of Xiaolongnu seems to be there for the wedding? Because other versions of Xiaolongnu are the colors of the bride, female guests should try to avoid wearing white, which is a tradition.

Under the auspices of the priest, the newlyweds read their marriage vows and then exchanged rings. The priest declared them to be legal couples. As a bystander, Guo Xu could truly feel the deep love between the two, and she cried and laughed when reading.

After the ceremony, there was a dinner party, which was very formal. The bride and groom's parents, best and bridesmaids, and the bride and groom took their seats one after another. Kobe and Vanessa also had their own special seats.

Guo Xu delivered a speech as the best man on behalf of everyone: "Let us raise our glasses to wish Kobe and Vanessa happiness, to grow old together, and to have a long love life."

Vanessa's best friend bridesmaid also gave a simple speech, and then the music started and the couple danced the first dance of the wedding.

Then Vanessa's father Stephen sent a message to the bride and danced with her.

What Guo Xu didn't expect was that Kobe's mother would dance with Kobe, which was really strange. Their dance steps were relatively simple, Kobe kept smiling, and he was really happy.

Seeing Guo Xu in a daze, Meghan touched his arm and asked, "Hey, what are you thinking?"

Guo Xu replied casually because he was wandering around the world: "I was thinking about what the dance scene would be when Shakira and Pique got married."

They might have had fun with their guests, and the music was also exciting, and Guo Xu thought it must be very interesting.

"Who are they? Do I know them?" Megan asked.

Shakira released her first English album "laundryservie" in November 2001, and since then she became popular outside of the Latin country. It is normal for Meghan not to know her now.

Guo Xu realized that he had spoiled. Pike, who was born in 1987, is still a middle school student. He raised his eyebrows. "Uh... you don't know me, I was a friend from middle school."

The food was high-end Western food. After eating, the table was removed. The DJ on the scene started playing music again. The audience started dancing and everyone was excited.

During this period, two actors from the Lakers crew stood up to liven up the atmosphere. O'Neal squeezed away Guo Xu in a rebounding position and grabbed the embroidery thrown by the bride, which made the audience laugh.

Today, the relationship between O'Neal and Kobe is like returning to the fourth game of the 2000 Finals. O'Pang is willing to carry Kobe back to the locker room.

The love at the scene was strong, not only the two newlyweds, but also the parents of both sides danced in the music and couldn't help but kissed. Many people, regardless of their young or not, were intimate with their female companions in the sweet atmosphere of the wedding.

Guo Xu and Meghan are the most eye-catching. The two partner danced a Latin dance. The men are professional and the women are hot. Everyone stopped and gave up space for them. The cameraman also recorded a video for them, which is very memorable.

After the song was finished, the audience applauded. O'Neal's drums were the most vigorous. He could only dance mechanical dance. He liked Latin very much but couldn't play it. If he shook, he would shake fat.

Of course, they just danced vigorously and didn't kiss. Although the atmosphere on the scene was great, Guo Xu was a rational person and could not commit a crime in such an occasion. There were too many witnesses.

The Lakers players did not leave early, chatted, drank and danced, and played until midnight. A reporter posted a news sigh that the Lakers players were already crazy, as if they were celebrating the championship in advance. The wedding atmosphere was very happy and pleasant.

Lakers players all relaxed and welcomed the playoffs at their best, which was more meaningful than a simple dinner party.

The next day, the Lakers' 13-man roster was confirmed.

Center: Shackle O'Neal, Greg Foster.

Power forwards: Mark Madson, Horez Grant, Robert Hory.

Small forwards: Rick Fox, Devin George, and Ryan Bowen.

Scoring guards: Kobe Bryant, Brian Shaw, Mike Panpesy.

Point guard: Guo Xu, Derek Fisher.

Harper and Medvedek are not on the playoffs roster.

Although Harper recovered from injury, his competitive condition is very bad and there is no need to come back. Even if he plays, he can't play for a few minutes. Guo Xu and Fisher are enough at the No. 1 position, and Pan Pessi and Brian Shaw can still play guest-game as No. 1 position.

Medvedenko only played 28 games throughout the season, averaging 5 minutes per game, and he was training for garbage time. He had stable mid-range shots, but his movement speed was too slow and his performance on the defensive end was unqualified, so he could only be a marginal person.

The playoff defense is very important. The "Zen Master" prefers to bring experienced Foster with him and can also shoot in the mid-range shots. Madson can use defense to help the team. The Lakers need him to play on the court at some point.

Basketball experts collectively expressed optimism about the Lakers' defending title, and espn listed their three major advantages.

First, the Lakers play many people, veterans have experience, young players are energetic, and they can arrange their lineups based on their opponent's playing style.

Second, the Lakers' attack power is stronger than last season, and there are super scorers on both sides and outside. When O'Neal comes off the court and plays a quick counterattack, the substitutes can also score efficiently.

Third, the Lakers strengthened the No. 1 position of the biggest short-term last season, and instead became a strong point. Guo Xu made a sharp breakthrough, and Fisher, who was a substitute, could also open up space and receive and shoot three-pointers. Meeting a strong point guard on the defensive end can allow Fisher to make him, and his opponent is a short guard, and Guo Xu can almost certainly suppress his opponent.

Experts have come to a conclusion that the Timberwolves are going to be in trouble in the first round, not only are they swept the series, but they may be massacred every game!
