Chapter 307

Los Angeles Lakers stop the second round of the playoffs, Kobe Bryant 33 points unable to save! —Los Angeles Times.

The tiebreaker lost!Kobe's sixth ring is nowhere in sight! — the bleachers.

Big rout!The goddess of victory tonight, failed to favor Los Angeles again! 3-4, the Lakers were eliminated with 26 points! — Lakers Nation.

These reports are actually well written, but ESPN is not polite, and directly typed a big headline: Green Army breaks out!The Lakers lost!This is a reflection of history!
Afterwards, a large group of experts, reporters, and analysts jumped out, and a group of people represented by Henry Abbott said: "Kobe is the culprit! He took up too much of the Lakers' possession! Only the Lakers have One day, he will never make it in the West!"

"Bryant may have been a hero once, but now, he is just a cancer. If the Lakers want to recover and get back to health, they must get rid of him!" This is an article written by an ESPN expert named Royce Webber, literally The meaning of attack is not worse than that of Henry Abbott, or even worse.

"Just over 50% free throws? Haha~ Am I watching Howard make free throws?" Jay Williams also came out and said.

The entire ESPN blackmail Kobe Bryant trend is like a raging fire, suddenly unstoppable.

Only now did Tang Qian understand how difficult it is to be the boss of Los Angeles.

Well done Blow!Poorly done! Some people in ESPN are almost as good as domestic unscrupulous editors!
At this time, the Lakers also held a season-ending press conference. For a while, reporters from major sports websites, like flies who smelled the smell, poured into the designated place in large numbers.Because with their professional sense of smell, they can feel that there will definitely be "big news" in this press conference.Therefore, no one wants to be left behind, so as not to fail this big news.

There are four people sitting in the Lakers seats. On the far right is head coach Mike Brown, in the middle is Kobe Bryant, and on the right are Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum.The face of the Lakers, this press conference is all here.

The Lakers press officer took a look and announced the start of the press conference.

Since it was the last press conference of the season, the head coach Mike Brown said a lot of "scene words", such as "continue in the coming year", such as "we will be stronger next year", such as "Congratulations to the Thunder and so on".It seems to be a season summary, but in fact there is no actual content at all, it is all boring and boring clichés and nonsense, which made the reporters below almost doze off.But this is a necessary step, so they have to bear it if they don't want to.

After Mike Brown finished this "long talk", he began to enter the questioning session. All of a sudden, the reporters below suddenly became energetic.A reporter from a local media in Los Angeles first asked: "Bryant, it's a pity that the Lakers failed in the tiebreaker. We all watched the game and know that you have tried your best, but what do you think of some comments on the Internet?"

"What comments?" Kobe raised his head and asked in an inaudible tone.

"It's the opinions of ESPN Henry Abbott and Royce Webber." The man named them.

"What do they know? Can they play ball? It's just a broken mouth." Kobe said: "You say I'm a cancer? Can't I see the five rings on my hand? How many of them are there? A group of eye-catching clowns ! Next question!"

Even though Kobe's answer was not long, it was rich in content and had a lot to do in the ears of the following group of people.

"Why did the Lakers lose to the Thunder this time? Logically speaking, the Lakers and the Thunder should have mutual advantages?" This was a reporter from Yahoo Sports, and his question was relatively traditional. "I can't play with my own advantage, and the outside line is blasted by the opponent. It's a ghost if I don't lose." Kobe's mood tonight is actually extremely bad. Not to mention these bullshit comments on the Internet, it is mainly his sixth championship, the first Six rings, another year will be pushed back.This is the main reason for his bad mood.

I'm going to be 34 soon, how much peak state can I maintain next season? 80%? 75%?Or is it below 70%?Everything is possible, because of the erosion of time, it is the greatest enemy of a superstar.

And it is an impossible opponent.

Swipe, swipe, swipe~ As Kobe said, the people below quickly recorded the key words.

Why was Kobe's popularity not weaker than anyone's until he retired?His distinct personality is one of the reasons.

Media reporters, in fact, like to interview people like Kobe the most. They are both attention-grabbing and topical, and the parties will throw out a few wild stories from time to time. Who do you interview if you don’t interview this kind of person?Now Kobe's strength is no longer No. 1 in the league, but his topicality is still higher than that of the little emperor James. This is the charm of his super-giant personality.

And he is also one of the few remaining super giants in this league.

After asking a few more innocuous questions, someone stood up and said, "Bryant, evaluate your opponents. What do you think of their future potential?" Kobe thought for a while. He is still willing to support the powerful juniors, of course, the premise is that you have the strength. "Very good, Durant's shooting, I think it is at the historical level of the 3rd position in the league, and no one can match the 3rd position in the league." Speaking of this, someone interjected and said: "It is better than LeBron. Do you want to be strong?"

Kobe glanced at this man, and said impatiently: "I'm talking about shooting ability, ok? Simply referring to shooting ability, I think Durant is 10 times better than James. How about it? Are you satisfied with this answer? "

The man was not angry when he was attacked by Kobe like this, because his goal had already been achieved, and he "wrapped" what he wanted from Kobe's mouth.For a professional journalist, that's enough.

"Westbrook is also very strong. I like and appreciate his character very much. I think he is the most impactful No. 1 in the league right now. He suits my appetite!" Just after Kobe finished speaking, the man asked again: "You mean, he's stronger than Derrick Rose? Right?"

Kobe looked at this person's ID card, and suddenly his attitude became slightly disdainful: "Sure enough, he is a reporter trained by ESPN. He really knows how to catch problems. Okay, then I might as well tell you that I think Westbrook's future achievements will be great." No less than Derrick Rose, and purely speaking of impact, he is stronger than Rose in the No. 1 position! My words are enough for you to earn a good salary, right?"

Reporters from ESPN are not usually thick-skinned. After hearing what Kobe said, they just smiled, and then sat down and continued to listen to the press conference.

"Then I think the Thunder's No. 13 is also good. As a sixth man, his contribution is no less than that of Lamar, and his future potential is inestimable. The bench is not his world."

Suddenly, the ESPN reporter stood up again, but this time his "spearheads" were Gasol and Bynum.

"Mr. Gasol, what do you think of your performance in this round of the series? Have you been affected by some other aspects? For example, the possession of the ball, the status of the team, etc.." This guy asked very experienced , It doesn't match the face at all, it seems to be an ordinary question, but in fact there are many traps in it.In this round of the series, Gasol played very frustratingly, so when he spoke, he didn't think too much: "It is indeed affected. Compared with the regular season, the contribution I can make is really too little. This is not my real strength and level now."

Gasol's answer made the ESPN reporter's eyes light up. He lowered his head and wrote in the shorthand notebook, and then continued to ask: "Then Bynum, what do you think of your performance in this round of the series? The playoff average 14+8, which is very different from the regular season data!"

When the master heard this, he was a little sullen and said: "That's because my playing time has been drastically reduced in the next few games! You are only given such a small amount of playing time, and O'Neal's statistics will be ugly when O'Neill comes. It won't be much better!" The master said That sentence is a bit of nonsense, the sixth game does have this factor, but what about the seventh game?How little playing time is close to 40+?His shooting percentage has become a dog, can he blame other people?Even in the first few games, it was he who got into foul trouble himself, which gave Tang Qian a chance, but in the head of An Zhu, there seemed to be no concept of "reviewing himself", so his grievances were vented to other players in the Lakers team. on people.

From players to coaches, there is no one who does not "get angry".

"Oh? Why is that? Can you tell me the details?" The reporter from ESPN became interested when he saw the anger in the words of the nunnery master, and deliberately induced the nunnery master to say. "Because some people deliberately suppressed me! But he never criticizes himself! In this environment, it is difficult for me to give full play to my strength!" Anzhu was also stupid enough, and immediately followed the other party's words with "righteous indignation".

As soon as these words came out, the Lakers' face changed.

Openly bombarding your teammates is not impossible in the NBA, but generally speaking, this is the privilege of the boss. Repulsion from top to bottom.

The EQ of the nunnery was once again fully exposed.

"Oh, so that's the case. I understand. The Lakers do have this kind of ball dominance. What happened to you in the Lakers will definitely win the sympathy of the fans." The ESPN reporter smiled inwardly, and said Bynum said. "Yes! So I urgently need space to fully display it! Otherwise, no matter how potential I have, I can't use it!" Bynum continued.

Seeing that the nunnery master wanted to "talk big", Mike Brown immediately took the lead and said: "Please ask another person to ask the question, please ask another person to ask the question!"

And this storm spread across the Internet in an instant.

ESPN's official website column published several articles:

Lakers infighting!Who is the cause?Bynum press conference directed at the Black Mamba!
Real ball master!Bynum blasted that he could no longer stand some people!

Gasol claims the state of the game is affected!The reason for this implies that the head star occupies too much possession of the ball!
There are some other Lakers "black materials" presented one by one on ESPN's official website column, but the most important ones are the above ones.Under ESPN's thoughtful operation, the "source of contradictions" all point to No. 24 of the Lakers, Kobe Bryant.

That night, the NBA announced the MVP winner for the 2011-2012 season. LeBron James won 34.16% of the votes and won the regular season Most Valuable Player trophy for the third time in his career.However, in Los Angeles, few people paid attention to it, because a grand "soap opera" began to be staged.

"Excuse me, how do you comment on Bynum's remarks?" A reporter from TNT TV interviewed Tang Qian in private. In fact, not only Tang Qian, but almost every Los Angeles Lakers player was interviewed by him. "That's completely nonsense." Tang Qian replied succinctly: "Bryant's performance in the regular season and playoffs is obvious to all. The super reversal of G6 was completed under his leadership. On the other hand, some people , The overall weakness is really not worthy of the title of the No. [-] center in the Western Conference."

A few hours later, the TNT official website published the interview. The reporter wrote: "Tang supports Kobe, bluntly saying that Bynum is a softie, not worthy of the title of the first center in the Western Conference! Gasol also claimed that ESPN misinterpreted Meaning, he thinks Kobe is still the best player in the league!"

Immediately, the battle started.

Almost every half day, news about the Lakers leaked from the Internet, and now even fools can see that the Lakers are starting to break apart.This matter exists in Tang Qian's memory, but it is far from the "massive momentum" it is now. It seems that the "butterfly effect" has gradually begun to work.

ESPN publicly stood on Bynum's side, cheered for him, and complained wildly; TNT, Lakers Nation, Bleaches, and the Los Angeles Times stood on Kobe's side and fought back against opponents.Major stars also came out to stand in line, for example Charles Barkley directly claimed that Andrew Bynum was "shameless"!I beat myself like a dog. Shit, but I have the nerve to criticize others!If he were Bynum, he would just sew up his mouth now, and then find a quiet place to train crazily for a "summer vacation"!
Famous figures on ESPN were also moved by the news, such as Henry Abbott, who swiped his pen and ink and said: "This is a competition between the righteous weak and the evil strong. It is obvious that most of the Lakers are facing Kobe. I dare not speak out. It’s no wonder, after all, Kobe is the boss of Los Angeles and has played here for more than ten years. If you fight against him, you will definitely be in trouble.”

Seeing this kind of news, Tang Qian accepted an interview with FOX sports reporter Abby Hornacek and said: "Don't dare to speak up? That's what ESPN experts think! They always like to impose the fantasy in their minds on reality! I Think it's a stupid remark!"

Tang Qian's toughness is surprising, because on this "infighting issue", even Paul Gasol is a little hesitant, unwilling to name names and publicly express attacks.It's true that he supports Kobe, but he doesn't want to offend Bynum, let alone the "great" ESPN.

There is no problem with the Spaniard's concerns, because no athlete does not know what ESPN represents in the United States.The market value of this brand is as high as 400-500 billion US dollars, and it is the most authoritative and largest sports commentary organization in the United States.Although the market value is not scary, its annual income is as high as more than 100 billion U.S. dollars.What is this concept?Comparing some domestic websites, a certain Le website has a market value of around 200 billion RMB, but what is his annual income?Only about 4.1 million yuan.Compared with ESPN, the market value and annual income are not at the same level at all.

The ratio is too different, one is 5:1, and the other is 49:1. This is the distance between Ultraman and the dwarf.

It can be seen that the strength and influence of this ESPN, the entire Americas, and even the entire world, are leveraged.

Therefore, in the United States, no one wants to provoke this behemoth, including Pau Gasol.

Perhaps it is because people are used to the awe and fear of it, so ESPN always adopts a suppression policy when encountering people who do not cooperate or obey. For example, Kobe in basketball and Ronaldo in football are typical of them.But the United States is a football desert, so its influence on football is limited, and Europeans don't value the American ESPN very much, so no matter what it says, people don't bother to listen.But for basketball, that's a different story. ESPN's self-domination and self-domination can be seen at a glance. Any basketball player who goes against it will have "serious consequences."

Even many fans don't know it, but it was black over Michael Jordan in [-], but because Jordan's stubble is too hard, especially after winning the championship, he has no defeat in the finals, two three consecutive championships, and various honor statistics. The hands are soft, and the so-called high-level data is ridiculously high. After this, ESPN has admitted that it has failed, and has no general complaints about God Qiao.

So in ESPN's heart, they have always had an idea, that is to hold out another historical No. 1, kill Jordan, and let Jordan also have the opportunity to be stepped on and slapped in the face.Based on this face, they chose LeBron. In Tang Qian's memory, LeBron will be promoted to the third man in history in the future.

LeBron is very strong, there is no problem in the top ten in history, but the top three in history? ESPN are you sure you're not joking?

In Tang Qian's personal opinion, even if LeBron has won 6 O'Brien Cups, he is not Jordan's opponent. Not to mention anything else, they don't engage in peak teamwork, they have a 100% winning rate in the finals, and they don't engage in brother basketball , this kind of legend will never be comparable to LeBron.Zhan Huang is very strong, but to say that he can match Jordan in the future, it just means that ESPN is crazy.

But Tang Qian also understood that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. He was slapped and swollen by Jordan in the past. If he doesn't get back in the future, how can he do it? Tang Qian couldn't understand ESPN's urine.

LeBron is ESPN's good son, but Kobe is not. He has basically never had a good time with ESPN. In addition, Kobe's honor and strength are not as good as Jordan, so it is natural for them to attack Kobe and discredit Kobe.Because in the heart of ESPN, there will never be another superstar who is out of control!
Kobe is the last one!
It is also the worst one!
They want to scare chickens and monkeys, and let future "children" understand what will happen if they go against ESPN! ! !

Therefore, as soon as Tang Qian's remarks came out, ESPN immediately became indignant, and immediately blacklisted the No. 29 of the Lakers on the S-level.

Represented by Henry Abbott, he published articles and columns frantically, slandered Tang Qian, and all kinds of big data, which made Tang Qian stunned.

Sure enough, it's a good method, but in the professional sports circle, everything depends on performance!

When my strength hardens, I will swell your face!
Tang Qian thought to himself.

On May 5, US time, this battle escalated even more.

The reason was that Andrew Bynum was on an ESPN talk show called The Michelle Beard Interview. On the show, the nunnery master vomited bitterness, and at the same time broke out a lot of "insider stories" that he imagined.Forget it, he also invented a new word on the show called "Kobe-dar" to satirize the Black Mamba of the Lakers.

Immediately, the word became a hot word on the Internet, and people spread it by word of mouth.

Naturally, it eventually reached Kobe's ears.

PS: Add more updates tomorrow, please vote more~
This "Kobe-dar" was indeed invented by Andrew Bynum. I have to say that this guy is still a bit talented~~~ But it is not used in the right place. He specializes in idiot behavior on the basketball court~~~
