May Kobe be okay! —Speaking on the Warriors official website.

Because of Kobe's injury, the final performances of Tang Qian and the Lakers were all ignored.There is no way around this. No. 24 has stayed in Los Angeles for too long. Since 1996, he has not left the team. The sudden appearance of this kind of injury caused all Lakers fans to grab their hearts.

A torn Achilles tendon, everyone knows what it means to athletes.

Let’s not talk about it outside the basketball circle. Let’s just talk about the history of the NBA. There are definitely not a few stars whose status has plummeted or even retired because of a torn Achilles tendon.For example, O'Neal, Isiah Thomas, Charles Barkley, and Billups all bid farewell to the NBA because of this injury.As for those who have recovered and continued to play, there are also some, such as Dominique Wilkins, James Donaldson, Dick Barnett and so on.Among them, Dominique Wilkins recovered the best. After being injured on January 92, 1, on November 28, 10 months later, he made a strong comeback. He made 11 of 6 shots in 39 minutes and scored 26 points. , It surprised all the experts and reporters who were pessimistic before, and even called this a miracle in the history of sports.That season Wilkins was even more terrifying than before, averaging 13 points per game, second only to the great basketball god Michael Jordan on the scoring list.

But apart from him, there is no other person who can make such a legendary comeback.

In fact, Wilkins was only 31 years old that year, and Kobe was about to be 35 years old, and the difference was nearly 4 years old, which had a great impact on the body's recovery function.Therefore, Lakers fans are extremely concerned about Kobe's injury.

In the Lakers locker room, although Kobe forced a smile and congratulated the team on winning and kept the possibility of entering the playoffs, he already knew deeply that no matter what, it was all with him, and with No. 24. Not much anymore.A torn Achilles tendon is enough to wipe out a professional athlete.

The Lakers players are also deliberately avoiding certain topics. After all, those bottles of sports drinks that exploded on the ground are a reflection of it.

No one doesn't care about this kind of thing, this kind of injury, this kind of emotion, just hold on.

Regular interviews, but this time, none of the reporters ran to other Lakers players. They all swarmed like wasps, and instantly drowned No. 24 sitting on the stool.

No. 24's eyes were slightly red, not sure if he cried when he was alone just now, because of sadness and anger, red eyes can also be filled.In this way, a tormenting "torture session" began.

"Bryant, how do you feel? Did you fail to do that move?" First, a Los Angeles local reporter spoke, and Kobe heard the words: "No, it's not, that's just a result of the 100 million moves I've done. It was just one time, but this time it was bad luck, God made a big joke with me."

"Bryant, will you stand up in the next game as usual and lead the Lakers again?"

"I don't know, buddy, but that kind of pain is different from before." Kobe said: "I can bear the pain, but the physical damage cannot be filled by the spirit."

"But I haven't had an MRI yet, so there might be hope." This is a new female reporter in Los Angeles.

Kobe slowly shook his head and said, "No, I'm a professional athlete. Some injuries, I know exactly what they are. I tried many methods on the court, hoping that I can continue to play, and I hope it can pass quickly. I lost it, but it was too unlucky...I also thought the situation wouldn't be so bad, but this time...maybe not so lucky."

"Bryant, is this the heaviest injury in your career?" someone asked again.

Kobe replied: "Yes, this kind of injury made me feel bad at the first time. The big thing is not good. The psychological horror even exceeds the physical fear. I admit that I am a little at a loss. This is something that has never happened to me in my entire career."

"Is it because of too much playing time recently?"

Kobe said: "I don't know, but I can achieve this intensity in training days before, and I pay great attention to the maintenance before and after the game. I don't know why this time. I really don't understand. .”

"Do you think the Lakers can still win? Can they still enter the playoffs? You must know that the Lakers are the most expensive team in the league this season." A reporter from Yahoo Sports asked.

"Thinking and reality, sometimes it is difficult to form a direct ratio. Looking at our current situation, I can't stop working hard, I can't stop working harder, but in the end it's like this... Shit. The result! I feel very angry , Very frustrated, I don’t want to be like this, I also want to continue to play, but the fact is, I have to wear a suit and tie and sit on the bench for the rest of the game.”

As the interview progressed, Kobe's emotions were obviously gradually activated. It was very rare for No. 24 to show so many negative emotions and...not confident.But the reporters don't care about this, their task is to "bomb indiscriminately", and then obtain first-hand information and first-hand news, then get promoted and raise their salary, and reach the pinnacle of life.

"Is this related to the defender Barnes?"

"No, it wasn't, I asked him after I fell down, and he said he didn't touch me the whole time."

Just as Kobe's answers became more and more mechanical and dull, an ESPN reporter suddenly said something surprising, saying: "Bryant, we all know how serious a torn Achilles tendon is. Will it be your last game?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the entire crowd was silent for a few seconds, because the ESPN reporter not only directly pointed out the word "torn Achilles tendon", but also asked the question that upset Kobe the most.

"Will this be your last game?"

Kobe looked at the reporter, then looked at his press card, was silent for 3 seconds, and then said: "Are you sure you really want to do this? Are you sure you really want to do this?" Kobe said in a strange tone, It was completely different from the low and dull one just now.

"Of course, Bryant, maybe I'm being rude, but for the sake of readers and people who want to know the situation first-hand, someone will always ask this." The ESPN reporter expressed apology on the surface, but in his mouth It is still unforgiving.

It seems that Kobe will not give up if he does not force Kobe to give the answer.

This is what makes these journalists "soft knives" so powerful. They use civilized and polite language, but it may hurt people more than actually stabbing you.

And disgusting.

"Haha~" Kobe suddenly laughed strangely: "Ask this question at this moment, it's really ESPN's 'truth-seeking' style, it's really great, it's so appropriate!" After laughing, he followed up with a sentence Said: "But I will not do as you wish."

"Really, trust me."

……

What is the ruthlessness of professional sports? Now it is another aspect. Even what the 24th needs most now is to rest and be alone, but he still has to smile, clean up his mood, and face the "wolves like tigers" outside. " and "Long guns, short guns".

In the Lakers locker room, people come and go, but no one has a smile on their face.

The meaning of winning tonight has been completely washed away by a certain man's injury.

Sitting next to his locker, Tang Qian was also a little dazed, completely different from the violence and bravery before.

Could it be... there is really nothing to show?
Is this the so-called great inertia of history?

I……
