Chapter 763 Chose Kobe Over O'neal! !

"Although his eye injury is not serious, he still needs to rest if he can take a good rest. With the current record of the Rockets, there is no rush to let him play." Kenny Smith said.

Kobe was holding back his energy, and today he will have a good fight with Yang Shan. But I didn't expect Yang Shan to sit on the bench, which made Kobe feel a little uncomfortable.

Since you don't go out first, I'll fight hard to force you out!

The outcome of today's game between the two sides, in fact, everyone has already reached a conclusion, and the Lakers have little chance of winning.

Pau Gasol was injured, Ariza was injured, Bynum was also injured. Three of the team's five starters were injured. How easy is it to win against the hot Rockets?

In fact, in today's game, Zen master Phil Jackson has already decided to give up. Of course, he can't say that, because not only Kobe's friend and opponent McGrady, but also Kobe's former boss, there is no one who hates the most now. Shaquille O'Neill.

In 1996, Kobe was selected by the Hornets with the 13th overall pick, and was then traded to the Lakers by West for Vlade Divac.

You must know that at that time, Vlade Divac was a starting center who could average 13 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. The team used him to trade a rookie who was only 17 years old with the 13th pick, and it still took a lot of risk. From this we can also see how optimistic West is about Kobe.

Immediately afterwards, the Lakers Xia Tian signed Shaquille O'Neal, and the two worked together for several years, as Kobe grew up. In the 1999-2000 season, the Lakers won their first championship, followed by three consecutive championships to establish a dynasty.

After the three consecutive championships, with the continuous improvement of Kobe's state, O'Neal also began to slack off after winning the three championships, and he was unwilling to put in more effort in training, and the contradiction between the two became more and more prominent.

Kobe is a training madman, O'Neill is muddling along, it's no wonder that these two people have no conflicts together!

From 2002 to 2003, the Lakers lost to the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals. But at this time, although the two disagreed privately, they still cooperated very well on the field.

It's a pity that Kobe later caused the Eagle County incident, which not only caused his reputation to plummet, Kobe, a guy with low EQ, even told the media that he should have spent money to settle this matter like O'Neal, that is, the fans As said, O'Neill also did it.

This made O'Neal very angry. He told the media that Kobe never played with them and didn't know about his affairs. He was shirking responsibility.

Kobe also couldn't understand O'Neal's laziness during training more and more, and the two fell out completely. But that Xia Tian, ​​the Lakers signed Carl Malone and Gary Payton with a basic salary, two All-Star veterans, formed a luxurious F4 lineup, and the fans joked that my grandma can lead such a Rocket to win a championship.

Unfortunately, during the finals, Carl Malone was injured. O'Neal was also unscrupulously restricted by Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace, (Li's good) two Wallace brothers. Kobe's performance was not good, and he eventually lost to the Pistons.

O'Neal wants to renew his contract in the offseason. He wants a big contract and wants the Lakers to trade Kobe, threatening that Kobe and him can only choose one. Phil Jackson also wanted to let O'Neal stay, but it's a pity that the old Bass chose Kobe instead of the aging O'Neal.
