Chapter 285 [I climbed up, I can't fall down again]

When I came to Los Angeles last time against the Clippers, the Lakers went out to play away. Guo Xu failed to meet his former brothers. This time, Guo Xu felt that he should get together.

As a result, after Guo Xu called, O'Neal was only willing to have dinner alone with him, and made it clear: "Don't call Kobe, I'm really anxious if you call him."

The two met at the familiar steak restaurant. O'Neal frowned and was in a bad mood at first sight. He really couldn't laugh, and many people were discussing whether the Lakers could make the playoffs this year.

The Lakers have just established a dynasty. If they don't make the playoffs this year, O'Neal thinks it's better to jump into the sea and commit suicide and feed the fish.

The two of them exchanged a few words and after ordering the meal, Guo Xu smiled bitterly and said, "I have only been gone for three months, why are you making such a fuss?"

"Can I not be angry? When you were there, we only lost 15 games in two years. Now the Lakers have lost 18 games in two months of the game. It's useless for me to come back. Pick-and-roll offense is no longer possible. If you don't have tactics, you're singles." O'Neal said angrily: "Derek (Fisher) is a waste. Why don't they change point guards?"

Fisher is very unpopular in the team now. He is not a point guard at all. He averages 34 minutes per game, 10.5 points, 3 rebounds and 3.4 assists, shooting percentage of 43.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 40%, basically no breakthrough, and averages 1.5 free throws per game.

It’s not that Kupchek doesn’t want to trade Fisher, but he just doesn’t have a suitable trading goal. The annual salary of 3 million is not high. I’m afraid the person who exchanges it is not as good as him. Moreover, the contract expires in 2004.

O'Neal's contract this season is as high as 23.57 million, and the Lakers' overall salary is as high as 63.15 million. It is impossible to find a star point guard. Kupchek is still very clear that even if he is replaced by a star point guard, it is impossible to satisfy fans, because people will compare him with Guo Xu, who is the most popular this year.

Guo Xu advised: "Even if the Lakers did not renew my contract with me and their strength has declined, I don't think you need to be so angry. You are different from those veterans who work hard to win the first championship ring in their career."

O'Neal understood what Guo Xu meant. He had no shortage of personal honors. He had made a lot of money. He was a winner in life in all aspects, but he just couldn't calm down because he was not old yet and was only 31 years old in March next year.

Not old, O'Neal naturally wants to maintain his dominant position. Now that the Lakers not only lose, but also Kobe wants to challenge his position in the team, he will of course be angry.

"I don't like Kobe. If we play like before, I will definitely win more as a core Lakers than now, but Kobe obviously wants to be the boss. Once you leave, his ambition will be revealed."

This is not considered unfair to Kobe. Guo Xu was obviously in the same group as O'Pang when he was in the middle of his life. Kobe had to endure it if he was dissatisfied with the ball. If he had a 2-1 fuss, he would probably be traded out of the team. Last season, Kobe was in a good mood and couldn't make a fuss because the team kept winning the ball, and no one would come out to make trouble under that situation.

It's different now. O'Neal is on the verge at the start of the game. Kobe has already obtained the ball rights, so how could he give it up easily?

Guo Xu felt that the relationship between the ok group had become worse, which was very similar to a plot in the Hong Kong movie "Beast Detective".

Zhang Yaoyang said: "If you hadn't called me boss just now, I would have killed you with one knife."

Tan Yaowen killed Zhang Yaoyang with a knife, and then said, "Boss, you will be the boss in the future. What does it matter who is the boss? You are the boss, and I am also the boss. I can't fall down again after I climbed up."

Of course, Kobe doesn't want to kill O'Neal. Although he dislikes O'Neal's laziness, he also knows that he can't win the championship without a fat man. Kobe is a person who has very strict requirements on himself, and at the same time he also makes extremely strict requirements for his teammates around him. This is what makes O'Neal the most annoying.

Four consecutive championships are really the goal that Kobe is eager to achieve. Only the Celtics have done this in history, but it was too early that era, and it was not difficult to achieve this goal. There were only eight teams in total, six of which were not competitive...

Guo Xu said lightly: "I advise you not to be angry with Kobe. His starting point is to lead the team to win. He wants to win four consecutive championships like you. You should work hard together. There is no benefit in a stumble, and it will only make the media laugh."

O'Neal rubbed his fat face with his hands and sighed: "We are the opponents in the end. The conflicts in the Lakers' locker room need to be persuaded to reconcile. If it is spread, it's a big joke."

Guo Xu smiled and said, "You should think more about happy things. Don't you have many hobbies? Sing, dancing, acting in movies, and being a policeman."

Being a policeman is also O'Neal's dream. Last season, he applied to become an alternate police officer at the Los Angeles Police Department, but team doctor Gary Witty became O'Neal's training target.

Every time they meet, O'Neal will "search" Viti, and from time to time you press Viti on the wall of the treatment room, and then ask Viti to hand over the painkiller syringe. As a counterattack, Viti bit O'Neal's hand with his mouth. The two of them often play and fight like this, which has become a major landscape in the Lakers' locker room.

O'Neal finally had a smile on his face. "If I were the songwriter of "seeyouagain", you might be happy. Next year you will definitely be invited to the Grammy Awards, and it is certain to be nominated."

"seeyouagain" has reached the top for a total of 12 weeks on the Billboard, and 6 of which were won again and again. This is a very terrifying result. A basketball player crushed many male and female singers with his singles. Last summer, singers asked Guo Xu to make an appointment with him, both men and women.

Guo Xu was also very proud of this and smiled and said, "It depends on the situation. If I have time, I will definitely attend."

"Will you still write songs in the future?" O'Neal asked.

"Write this, if you need inspiration and someone to sing, I will definitely find you. Let's sweep the billboard together."

"I just like to listen to this." O'Neal smiled, and then said seriously: "I'll warn you first, you'll make the two rookies in your team honest in the Christmas game. My toes are not neat and my knees are a little uncomfortable, but if they want to dunk in front of me, don't blame me if they are shot away."

"They aren't that stupid to challenge you at the basket. Amare is your hardcore fan. You signed him when you were 13."

"real?"

"Really, do you want me to call him and call him to talk to you? He must have a lot of things to say to you."

"No, let's talk."

During the school holiday, Megan Fox returned to Port St. Lucie for the festival, and Jason Statham also returned to the UK for the festival. Tonight is the two-person world of two gay friends.

In addition to talking about music, they also talked about movies. O'Neal always wanted to ask Guo Xu to shoot movies together during the holidays. Guo Xu agreed, but he must have a good script. He would never shoot bad scripts that would win the Golden Plum Award.

I don’t know when I will wait. There are too few roles suitable for O’Neal. No matter how he plays O’Neal, he will be a play because he is too big and the audience will get lost after watching it.

When he returned to the hotel in the evening, Guo Xu contacted Kobe online and chatted for a while. He had been a teammate for two years and a wedding best man. He knew that if the two had a conflict, they would be too unfriendly.
