Chapter 383 The goal is the champion
The Lakers players were very relaxed, and they were talking and laughing after returning to the locker room.They felt extraordinarily excited about finally wrapping up their road trip.
Kobe and Vanessa spoke on the phone and said they could go home the next morning.
Vanessa seemed very excited, and called her eldest and second daughters aside, and asked them to talk to Kobe on the phone to express their miss for him.
There are not many NBA players who are good husbands, but most players are good fathers, which is related to their generally unhappy childhood.Road trips require being away from the kids, which can be a struggle for them.
After Xu Tian answered the interview with the reporters on the sidelines, he walked through the player tunnel and went to the visiting team's locker room.When he passed the Eagles locker room, he heard the angry roar of Lloyd Pierce from inside, but he didn't stop any longer and continued to walk forward.
The players have all changed their clothes, and they can take the team bus back to the hotel just waiting for Xu Tian to return to the locker room.There are things that can be lingering, which makes Nick Yang miss him very much.
The style of black players in private is not good. Many of them will have sex with the girls posted on the road. Nick Young is not exempt from this.Xu Tian is not a life guide, but just gave advice, seeing that it didn't work, he didn't ask any more.
Under the gorgeous star-studded night sky in Atlanta, the team bus of the Lakers drove slowly.
Nick Young suddenly became interested and suggested: "Hey, guys! How about we go to a nightclub to celebrate? To celebrate the end of this long road trip."
If it was George during the Pacers period, he would definitely agree to Nick Young’s proposal, but now he has Kobe and Xu Tian, two training freaks, who have brought him the panic of being left behind, making him start to stay away from these things, and said in a deep voice : "Uh! I have no objection if you want to go, but I can't."
Nick Young said: "Come on, man! What a joy, isn't it worth going for a glass of wine to celebrate?"
Xu Tian said, "It's not worth celebrating at all."
Seeing Xu Tian speak, Nick Yang lowered his voice and asked, "Then what is worth celebrating? If you can get the MVP, can you celebrate as a group?"
Xu Tian shook his head and said: "No! The regular season MVP is just the goal of the regular season. Even if you don't get it, you don't necessarily fail this season. But the championship is different. As long as you don't get the O'Brien Cup, you won't be able to win the O'Brien Cup for the entire year. I don’t want that to happen. If you want to celebrate, wait until June. After winning the championship, the whole of Los Angeles will celebrate together.”
Bryant recalled the period of two consecutive championships, his eyes were fixed on a black spot behind the seat in front of him, and he whispered: "The feeling of winning the championship is unparalleled. As long as you experience it once, you will always want to be the last winner. That is O'Brien The charm of the cup."
Tyson Chandler also won the championship and said: "Although I have only experienced a championship parade, the feeling of celebrating with the whole city will never be forgotten in this life. The trip to the White House is also the same. Something worth remembering."
George has never been to the finals in his career, and after listening to the descriptions of Kobe and Tyson Chandler, his Adam's apple couldn't help but move up and down.He has no other thoughts in his mind, he just wants to win this year's O'Brien Cup.
Nick Young also stopped talking about going to the nightclub, and the scene of himself wearing a championship commemorative T-shirt, standing on the parade bus, and being cheered by hundreds of thousands of people appeared in front of his eyes.Thinking of this picture, I couldn't help but be elated.
Scott, who won several championships as a player, knew that what Kobe and Tyson Chandler said was true, but he didn't bother to let the players feel it for themselves.If you really want to win the championship, after all, you have to rely on these players.
The team bus was unusually quiet, and just as everyone was immersed in fantasy, Scott's cell phone rang.He saw that it was Pelinka's call and connected immediately.
"Byron, TJ's agent called me and said that his sprain is not serious, and he can return to the game after two to three weeks of rest." Pelinka's voice came from the other end of the phone.
When Xu Tian heard that TJ Warren was fine, a stone in his heart dropped.
TJ Warren is in a stage of rapid improvement. Resting too long will delay his growth. Now he only needs two to three weeks of rest, and he can start non-confrontation shooting training soon. The impact is not very big.
Nick Young waited until the call between Scott and Pelinka was over, and asked: "Who is on our team who hasn't won a championship?"
George said: "I have never won a championship."
Clarkson was thinking about this question just now, and said: "It seems that except for Kobe and Tyson, the rest of the players have not won the championship."
Josh Smith said: "This is exactly the reason why I agreed to sign with the Lakers. Most of the players here have the same goal, which is to hit the first championship in their career. It is with this in mind that I put on Zijin Tabard."
Tyson Chandler said: "Los Angeles is my hometown team, and I am happy to do everything for this city and this team. If I can bring back the O'Brien Cup for this team, I swear, I will never forget it."
Kobe said: "I will retire after the end of this season. This playoff is my last chance. If I fail to win the championship, I will not have the opportunity to hit the O'Brien Cup in the future."
"Kobe, I think you can play for another year." George didn't think Kobe had the slightest decline.
Kobe smiled at first, and then said calmly: "Paul, when I wake up every morning, my joints will hurt. If I didn't love basketball, I might have already left the game. Just like what I published on "Star Stand" As the article says, it's really time to leave."
It was very quiet in the team bus, save for the occasional coughing of the bus driver and the roar of the engine.
After a while, Xu Tian broke the silence and said, "So, now our goal is very simple, which is the final championship. If you agree to this, we will work hard in the next training."
Nick Young asked: "Is there an easier shortcut?"
"Basketball doesn't lie!" Xu Tian said with a serious expression on his face, "How much you practice will be reflected in the game every night. You can lie to yourself, but basketball doesn't, that's why we love it, and The reason we give everything for it every day!"
Kobe agreed: "The championship is not accidental. Only the strongest team can win this highest honor. If you want to achieve it, you must give everything."
Scott waited for a while, saw that no one spoke, and said: "Tomorrow afternoon, Toyota Center will practice together, and participation is not compulsory."
Xu Tian couldn't help laughing when he heard Scott's words.
