Chapter 523 I need to work harder

"Kobe, did you watch yesterday's game? Aren't you most concerned about Meng Xu's score in each game?" On the night of January 1th, in the training facility of the Los Angeles Lakers, Lamar Odo was late for the training game Tom was holding a newspaper and bluffing and waving at Kobe.

Since the Lakers have not played for three consecutive days, and the team's current record and state are very bad, Kobe, as the team boss, brought these Lakers players to the training hall for additional training, but not Every player is as dedicated as Kobe, not to mention extra training, even in the usual training sessions, there are many cheaters and tricksters, and Lamar Odom is one of them. The big man who entered the league with the title of division successor is indeed very talented, but like most black players, he is lazy and addicted to sex, which has always been an obstacle to Lamar Odom's progress. Today's extra training , Lamar Odom didn't want to come at all, but the assistant coach kept calling. If the assistant coach hadn't told Odom that Kobe was angry, Lamar Odom would definitely not come.

"Lamar, if you are late for the next training game, do [-] push-ups for me before you talk." The Lakers' current record is not good, so Kobe is a little irritable whether he is on or off the court. For a guy like Lamar Odom who is always lazy in training games, Kobe has never had a good face. You must know that when Odom first came to the Lakers, Kobe valued this big man very much. After observing and getting along with him for nearly half a season, Kobe has been completely disappointed with Odom. This guy is simply muddy and can't support the wall. No wonder he has been holding the title of magician's successor, but he is getting farther and farther away from the magician: " Also, don't mention Meng Xu to me, I don't care about him at all now."

At the beginning of this season, when O'Neal left the Lakers, Kobe took Meng Xu and the Pacers as his only opponents after Kobe took control of the Lakers. To beat Meng Xu in the game and join the Pacers in the finals, the only thought in Kobe's mind is to get rid of the shame.But what is unexpected is that after the start of this season, Meng Xu has changed his style of play in the previous two seasons. From the beginning of the new season, he has fallen behind in the competition for the scoring champion. Now he only ranks fifth in the scoring list. There is already a gap of nearly 5 points between him and Kobe, so in the competition for the scoring champion, Meng Xu will basically not pose any threat to Kobe.In terms of the team's record, after the Pacers beat the Nets in an away game, the Pacers have already won 32 consecutive victories. Such a record makes the Lakers, who are currently only 13 wins and 19 losses, feel ashamed, so now Kobe has already subconsciously. Go pay attention to Meng Xu. After all, for a player like Kobe with strong confidence, the better the Pacers' record, the more uncomfortable Kobe will feel.

"This guy scored 57 points at home against the Nets yesterday, averaging 31.5 points per game, and is now ranked third in the scoring list!" According to the current record of the Lakers, there is basically no hope for the playoffs , and helping Kobe to win this season's scoring champion is the only task of the Lakers this season. will pay extra attention.

"Really?" After hearing that Meng Xu had surpassed O'Neal and Iverson in the scoring list, Kobe immediately became interested, walked to Lamar Odom's side, and took the newspaper in his hand .

"The fastest 50+ in history!" This is the headline of the Los Angeles Times today. In the game against the Nets yesterday, Meng Xu only played 27 minutes and made 31 of 18 shots, 15 of 8 three-pointers, and 18 of 13 free throws. , scored an astonishing 57 points, and the scoring efficiency is jaw-dropping.If it weren't for the Nets inhumanely double-teaming and fouling Meng Xu in the middle of the second quarter and the end of the third quarter, and Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle was afraid The next time he was injured by a Nets player who was already red-eyed, Meng Xu was replaced in advance. Meng Xushi is likely to score 60+ at the Nets' home court.

"That's right!" After browsing the reports about Meng Xu, Kobe said to himself. In the scoring list this season, Kobe ranked first with an average of 35.4 points per game. , behind Kobe, McGrady only has 32 points. It can be said that Kobe is basically the existence of alone seeking defeat. After scoring 57 points in a single game, the average scoring per game has directly increased by 0.8 points. Although there is still a gap of 3.9 points between Meng Xu and Kobe, Kobe will not have the slightest doubt about Meng Xu's scoring ability. The whole season is less than halfway now, as long as Meng Xu is willing to enter the scoring mode in the next game, the gap between the two will definitely be further narrowed.

"Kobe, it's getting late. We still have a game tomorrow, so let's stop here today." After an intra-team match, the head coach of the Lakers, Frank Hamblen, looked at the time. Just signal Kobe, or ask for Kobe's advice, to end today's extra training.

"Okay, let's practice here today." Before he knew it, it was already 12 o'clock in the evening. After hearing the words of the head coach, Kobe clapped his hands towards his teammates who were almost tired and lay down behind him, signaling They can go home now.

"Today's game of the Pacers is still broadcast live in the United States!" After dragging his tired body back to the locker room, the rookie Luke Walton, who didn't want to take a shower for the time being, turned on the TV in the locker room. Pacers vs Celtics game.

"That's right. Right now, the entire United States is paying attention to when the Pacers will lose, and it's still a game against the Celtics. It's impossible for such a game to be broadcast live across the United States." Chucky, who was undressing aside -Atkins, following Luke Walton's words, he said with envy that the attention of the current Lakers is far different from the previous seasons, and the number of live broadcasts in the United States is directly less than last season played 15 games.

"Let's see if the Pacers lost?" The other Lakers players who were changing their clothes also stopped, and all their eyes were on the game on TV.

"I*, when will the Pacers win? They won't really break our record, will they?" The Lakers players, who were expecting the Pacers to lose, were excited when they saw the video on the TV. After the game, I started to sigh. Although the game between the Pacers and the Celtics will end in 4 minutes, but looking at the score of 103 to 88, and both teams have replaced the main players, they You know, the Pacers are going to win again today, and after the Pacers won this game, they officially tied the 33-game winning streak created by the Lakers.

"This guy scored 55 points again today!" Lamar Odom's attention is different from that of the teammates around him. What he cares about now is how many points Meng Xu scored in this game. After scoring Meng Xu's score in this game, Lamar Odom felt that the surrounding temperature seemed to drop by more than ten degrees in an instant. He made 29 of 17 shots, 13 of 7 three-pointers, and 18 of 14 free throws. 55 points in a single game, and scored 50+ points in two consecutive games in back-to-back games. This kind of data instantly made Lamar Odom feel that his brain was not enough.

"It seems that I also need to work harder!" Kobe, who had already taken a shower and came out of the bathroom, just happened to see the data displayed on the TV.
