There was a strange atmosphere on the Lakers plane flying to Los Angeles.
An inexplicably relaxing yet depressing atmosphere.
For many players, Kobe Bryant was injured and the loss to Miami was a relief. Perhaps they could go on vacation earlier.
But at the same time, almost everyone is thinking: Is this how we lose? We are all here, and we are only one step away from the three consecutive championships.
Part of the reason for this situation was that the team leader played Kobe's last three minutes of the game on the TV in the cabin.
Kobe Bryant has always been the spiritual symbol of the Lakers. Whether you believe in him or resist him, you will inevitably be influenced by him.
In fact, his sportsmanship not only affects his teammates, but also fans all over the world. When it comes to James, people will think of the chosen son, omnipotence, and wisdom. When it comes to Kobe, most people will think of "strengthening" and "independence".
, of course, there is also the 'paranoia spirit' that cannot be ignored.
Go ahead to dangers.
Fan Xi actually hopes that his teammates will be inspired by this. Only by spontaneously boosting their spirits can they have a chance to fight the Heat in the third game.
In the second game that just passed, the Lakers had no fighting spirit at all. In fact, if the Lakers played more aggressively and with more confidence, at least they would not be thrown into garbage time.
The Lakers have the power to fight the Miami Heat. The Big Three are by no means invincible. As long as the Lakers unite as one and rediscover their chemistry, they will at least have a chance to make the Heat's 4:1 dream come true.
"Jack."
When Fan Xi looked towards the dark sky outside, Dunleavy leaned over: "Can you tell me, are we really completely hopeless?"
Dunleavy is in a contract year, and this year's finals are of great significance to him. He wants to get the next contract with a starting salary of tens of millions, and to do this, outstanding performance in the finals is necessary.
Now that Kobe Bryant is injured, Miami is so strong, and the media is looking down on the Lakers. In this case, Fanshie has become Dunleavy's last straw. He knows that the answer to this question can only be found in Fanshie.
Fanshi looked at Dunleavy's eyes that said he was "disappointed but unable to hide his hope", and then he smiled and said to Dunleavy: "We are now 1:1, and we even have a home court advantage. Why do we feel there is no hope?"
Dunleavy was stunned. This was an answer he had not expected.
"Just because we didn't play well in the last game? Just because the whole world is saying that the Miami Heat must win? Come on, Mike, we can become the NBA. Who hasn't come through thousands of competitors?
Have we ever received too many cold looks?"
"We didn't believe it when we were kids, but now that we've made a lot of money, do we doubt ourselves?"
Fan Xi said to Dunleavy in an optimistic tone.
Dunleavy's "frustration" was gradually diluted by Fan Xi's words, and a strong determination formed in his heart.
"No matter what, as long as you run out of space, I will pass the ball to you. If you want to be the best shooter in the finals, run faster."
Fan Xi finally patted Dunleavy on the shoulder and gave Dunleavy his assurance.
Dunleavy felt reassured instantly.
Not long after Dunleavy returned to his seat, Lamar Odom came up again. He said to Fan Xi: "Jack, my wife said to invite you to my house for dinner tomorrow..."
Fan Xi thought Odom was going to say something.
As a result, he came to invite me to the Kardashian home, which is totally out of the ordinary.
"Will Jenna go?" Fan Xi asked implicitly.
"Of course." Odom winked and made an expression that every man would understand: "Kendall asked her sister to invite you over. Hey, I really want to be our brother-in-law."
Fanshi put his hand on Odom's shoulder: "Lamar, did you find another woman in Miami? Why did you play so badly in the second game? I heard that you can't handle Khloe recently.
Check, you said if you let him know you are in Miami..."
"No! No! No!" Odom shook his head like a rattle and said, "We are in a group, Jack. I have been telling Kohler recently to concentrate on preparing for the game and not hand in homework.
You know that the women in the Kardashian family have very strong desires. They can sit on you and suck you dry..."
When Odom said this, he couldn't help but shuddered. "You will know later."
It seems that Kohler has indeed brought a lot of psychological pressure to Odom.
"Then you have to be more focused on the court. How many defenses did you miss today? If you play well on the court, I can help you cover in the future. If you play like the second game, the Kardashian family
Not an idiot."
Fan Xi's words immediately made Odom pat his chest and promise: "Jack, don't worry, I will definitely pay full attention to the next game. I have long been unhappy with the Miami guys. They treated me like garbage back then. I hate them."
"By the way, Jack, when you enter the Kardashian family, we need to be on the same page and help each other."
Odom said that the Kardashian family was like a den of wolves, tigers and leopards. Fan Xi smiled faintly. He was never afraid of wolves, tigers and leopards. When illness comes, it will be covered up by water and earth. Although the American media are talking about the Kardashians
The women in the family are powerful, but he doesn't believe in this evil.
He has full confidence in his own energy.
After Lamar Odom left.
Pau Gasol actually joined in.
Fan Xi felt a little strange. It was like the leaders were having a meeting alone. Why did they come to talk to me one by one, scrambling to be the first?
Phil Jackson and Old Winter in front also noticed and they were both curious. The two old men pricked up their ears and wanted to hear how Fan Xi solved the matter.
The cabin is not big, and Phil Jackson and Old Winter are not far away from each other. With their ears pressed against the seats, it is easy to hear the conversation.
Fanshie's conversations with Dunleavy and Odom were in completely different ways and directions. When he talked with Dunleavy, he talked about "interests" and used data to motivate him. When he talked with Odom, a free and lazy person who became famous after being successful, he talked about him.
family, using his wife to intimidate and build a common front.
Fan Xi's completely different way of handling things made both Zen Master and Old Winter realize that although Fan Xi had never shown any leadership skills in the past.
And they were all very curious about how Fanci would chat with Pau Gasol.
And, what will Pau Gasol and Jack talk about?
"Jack, next game, you can give me more basketball. I just watched the game video. If I provide support in the high post, you will save a lot of physical energy. Moreover, Chris Bosh's basketball IQ is not enough to keep up with me."
rhythm."
Pau Gasol came over and actually said this.
Fan Xi was slightly surprised.
"I figured it out, I want to win." Pau Gasol clenched his fists, his face as if he would never grit his teeth was filled with perseverance, and he said to Fanci: "I have to do something for Kobe. Since he
If I choose you, then I will do my best to help you as well as I helped him. Before getting on the plane, I received his text message."
