Chapter 119 Lakers Championship!
"Rob, what is your urgent need for me?"

When Pelinka broke into the locker room and approached Kobe, Kobe was still meditating with a Zen master.

However, seeing Pelinka hurried in and pulling him out, Kobe could only follow him out.

"Jim just talked to me about something. I hope you can pass the ball to Shaq in the second half and help him win the Finals MVP."

As soon as Pelinka finished speaking, Kobe said angrily: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Don't be angry yet, Jim promised me that he will support you as the team leader next season!

Moreover, the management will trade Shaq away during the offseason, and the Los Angeles Lakers will be your team from now on!
By the way, the team will renew our contract with us in advance in the summer, using the Bird clause! "

Pelinka quickly told Kobe what he had communicated with Buss, but Kobe still didn't want to agree.

"I will not give up competing for the Finals MVP. This is the closest I have ever been to it! It belongs to me!"

Kobe loves basketball as much as he loves his life!
As the world's top basketball player and NBA superstar, no one would dislike the honor of Finals MVP.

Not to mention, Kobe wants to become the boss of the Lakers and overtake O'Neal!

He wanted to prove to the world that he didn't wear O'Neal's thigh to wear three championship rings.

Therefore, since there is no finals MVP yet, Kobe hopes to win his FMVP trophy!

"There will be, but not now.

Kobe, you should know that even tonight, you want to beat Shaq.

Winning the FMVP trophy is also a very difficult thing.

We just hope that we can win the finals more smoothly!
No one likes surprises, and no one doesn’t like money!
You haven't solved the problem yet, so staying in Los Angeles is the most correct choice! "

As an agent and a friend of Kobe's, Pelinka persuaded him earnestly.

Of course, as a vested interest, Pelinka naturally hopes that Kobe can renew his contract with the Lakers and continue to stay in Los Angeles.

On the one hand, Pelinka's agent resources are all in Los Angeles. Once he leaves Los Angeles with Kobe, he will need to take the risk of starting a new business from scratch.

On the other hand, Kobe's decision to jump out of his player contract also harmed Pelinka's interests.

When a star renews his contract, the biggest contract is naturally to renew with the parent team for six years with a maximum salary through bird rights!
In the summer, Kobe's situation is an early contract extension. Counting the previous contract, Kobe and the Lakers will suddenly have a seven-year contract.

In the next seven years, Pelinka, as an agent, was worry-free, ensuring profits regardless of drought or flood.

If Kobe jumps out of the player contract and becomes the boss of another team, the contract Kobe can get is only 5 years at most, and the annual increase is only 8%, instead of 10.5% for bird rights.

The difference between the two maximum salary contracts is almost 4000 million for Kobe and 100 million less for Pelinka.

It is for this reason that sometimes agents can be kidnapped by the team.

Of course, Pelinka's advice to Kobe is not unreasonable.

Also in order to compete for the championship, staying in Los Angeles is undoubtedly the most correct choice.

Whether it’s for money, fame, or family, it’s always right to stay in Los Angeles.

In addition, Kobe also recalled what his lawyer told him before about the solution to the Eagle County incident.

Because of being entangled by the female boxing organization, what needs to be solved now is not only the "female fans" who set up a fairy dance for him, but also the sharks who smell blood and come around.

In short, if it were settled with money, it would cost more than 1000 million at least.

Because of liquidated damages for endorsements, daily family expenses, legal team fees and other expenses, plus tax deductions from the player contract itself, he needs to pay at least two and a half years of player salary.

If you leave the Lakers, you may have to waste another half a year.

When I think of this, Kobe's head gets big!I just want to find a punching bag and punch him.

There is no way, if you do something wrong, you will be punished.As a man, Kobe still has the responsibilities he should have.

Faced with the problem of real money, Kobe still chose to compromise with reality.

"Don't worry, Kobe, we all support you.

As long as Jim can fulfill his promise, trade Shaq and set you right.

In the next few years, we still have a chance to win the championship and help you win the Finals MVP, right?
No team has more championship experience than the Los Angeles Lakers!
Maybe Shaq will only have these four championships in his life, and you will surpass Michael Jordan! "

In order to dispel Kobe's concerns, and also to prevent Kobe's mentality from exploding and affecting the subsequent finals, Pelinka persuaded Kobe in some way.

"I'm fine! Michael only won his sixth championship when he was 35 years old, and I'm only 26 now!
I know what I'm going to do, Robert, so don't worry.

The intermission was almost over, so I went back first. "After bidding farewell to Pelinka, Kobe went back to the locker room to wash his face, then took the time to show off a bottle of glucose, basically overcoming this obstacle.

In other words, without the obsession to compete with O'Neal for the Finals MVP, Kobe's ideas have become clearer.

After the start of the third quarter, Duan also passed more balls to Kobe as agreed before.

Instead, Kobe became a "traitor" and began to break through inside passes, leaving O'Neal stunned.

O'Neal ate several cakes made by Kobe, and it wasn't until the Roaring God caused an offensive foul that he suddenly realized what he was doing.

"Farke, Kobe is too insidious, isn't he? He just wants me to foul out, right?"

O'Neal, who had accumulated 4 fouls and 1 technical foul early in the two and a half quarters, had to sit on the bench again.

However, O'Neal had already scored 16 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks before leaving the game.

If this continues, the possibility of getting a double-double in this game is not high, but it is still very easy to score more than 20 points.

Having said that, after O'Neal came off the court, the Lakers played fast breaks under the leadership of Du En.

Many times, Kobe also stepped forward to take the blame and relied on his personal strength to break the deadlock.

Kobe's scoring performance in the second half was not as explosive as the first half, but after the third quarter, he had already scored 23 points and was currently the highest scorer in the game.

At the end of the third quarter, 81 to 74, the Lakers led the Pistons by 7 points and were basically guaranteed to win.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers' starting five appeared together again. Tonight, the Lakers won the championship and there was no suspense at all.

Half of the fourth quarter was played, and the point difference had widened to more than 10 points.

Pistons fans were leaving the field one after another, but there were still a large number of fans who left the field, staring at the big screen outside, hoping for a miracle to happen.

No miracles, however.

Even if the Pistons specifically targeted O'Neal, O'Neal quickly received the fifth foul.

However, it is not that easy to cause O'Neal to commit his sixth foul.

After all, the situation for the Lakers to win the championship tonight has been determined.

The league has also informed the referees in advance that it can do something for the sake of ratings, but if the situation is big enough, it is best not to intervene.

Everyone knows that the NBA's six fouls are going to leave the game.

As the leader of the Lakers, O'Neal left the game early on the night of the Finals championship due to six fouls, including the referee's intervention in the first half...

If this situation really happens, O'Neal will not be embarrassed, but the league's top brass will be ashamed for a while.

Of course, the Zen master knows how to measure.

More than 6 minutes into the fourth quarter, with the Lakers leading by 12 points, Jackson pulled O'Neal first.

It wasn't until the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter that Jackson put O'Neal back on the court.

At this time, the Lakers still maintained an 11-point lead.

Although Larry Brown also tried to use the shark-cutting tactic, this allowed O'Neal to score more points.

靠着最后3分钟8投5中的罚球，奥尼尔原先22分7篮板，等比赛打完也变成了27分8篮板。

"The Lakers Championship!"

"The Lakers Championship!"

"The Lakers Championship!"

When there were only a few seconds left in the game, the basketball was passed to Kobe by Dunn.

Thousands of Lakers fans who came from afar were at the scene, shouting slogans that they repeated again and again, year after year.

In addition, there were others shouting "MVP", "Shaq", "Kobe", and "Dunn".

At this time, the Lakers bench players on the sidelines had all stood up from the bench and were ready to go.

Prepare to sprint onto the court with the speed of an Olympic sprinter and celebrate the honor of winning the championship with the Lakers' Big Five.

104 to 96, the Lakers once again won G8 of the Finals with an 4-point advantage!

With the end of the 03-04 NBA Finals in the Palace of Auburn Hills, a new championship flag will be raised at the Staples Center soon!
