Chapter 208 The fate of the first point guard is not shallow
Spending time with Kobe is relaxing and comfortable. Kobe is a very pure basketball player. When he and Fan Xi are together, they can always focus on discussing game experience and analyzing the current league's play style.
Although many people criticize him for playing alone and only focusing on his own shots. But in fact, how can a superstar who is a historical superstar and has entered the top ten in history have a low basketball IQ?
Kobe's offensive skills are essentially comparable to Jordan's, but his talent and physical condition are not as good as Jordan's.
Fanxi and Kobe focused on the post-up play. Fanxi's current post-up play is in the same vein as Jordan's. He has gained all of Jordan's skills and experience like a blood awakening. He just lacks some 'realization' and experience now. In this aspect,
Kobe could give him the best advice.
Although the two of them have not personally polished their skills, they can already play a thought-provoking role through words.
Fan Xi has benefited a lot. When his injury completely improves, what Kobe has shared and taught will definitely bring him new nourishment.
Fan Xi stayed at Kobe's house until 10:30 in the evening, when Chen Ye drove over to pick him up, and he left.
If it weren't for the housing prices in Beverly Hills, Fan Xi would really like to buy herself a house here.
"Jack."
Before Fan Xi got into the car, Kobe suddenly called him from behind.
Fan Xi turned around.
Kobe suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, you are here to say goodbye to me today, right?"
Um?
Fan Xi was stunned.
"Jack, I know Jenny better than you. She is far cleaner than Jim. Now that she has become the team president, you will definitely be traded. You have too much of Jim's character."
Kobe continued: "I really hope you stay in Los Angeles. You are my favorite teammate. You are the young man I admire most. You are diligent, studious, hard-working, talented, and you have a real strong heart."
."
"But that's how the NBA is, it's a business."
"Jack, at this time, I suggest you have a good talk with Jenny Buss. You can put pressure on her. You can ask her to trade you to the city and team you want to go to. She can't withstand the surging public opinion.
, you are the favorite player of Lakers fans, and you just won three consecutive championships for the Lakers."
"I guess it was Jim who revealed the news about your injury, right?"
Kobe said a long, long thing.
He is a smart man and sees things very clearly.
"The best team for you right now is the Oklahoma City Thunder. You have a good relationship with Kevin. He is not a tough leader. If you swap with Westbrook, you can become the leader of the Thunder. Durant's play
Fa is very suitable for you, he can help you deal with the flanks and double-teams, you can freely connect with other players, you can play singles on the weak side, and unleash your post-up skills to the maximum."
"The Chicago Bulls are also good. Maybe you and Derek will have a ball conflict, but I believe that with your wisdom, you can definitely solve it. Derek is very tenacious, he is a tough and taciturn player. You will sympathize with each other, you two
Can overturn Miami's dominance in the East."
"I know you are a tough player, you don't want to rely on anyone's light, you are the light. This is exactly the same as the young me, and the same as the young Jordan. Back then, Jordan was beaten back and forth, but he never wanted to
Join a strong team and play brotherly basketball."
"But, Jack, times have changed. LeBron has started, and in the future the league will definitely become a league of superstars. You should integrate into it. With your intelligence and wisdom, you should become the trend-setter of the times."
Kobe kept talking more and more.
He is like an elder whose relatives are about to leave for a long distance, holding a glass of wine and chattering about various instructions.
Fan Xi was so moved that he turned around, opened his arms and hugged Kobe.
"I thought you were going to say I was a psycho, but you hugged me and I was right, right? Jack, are you really leaving the Purple and Gold Army?" Kobe asked Fan Xi softly.
Fan Xi nodded.
"Where should you go? The Thunder? The Bulls, the Mavericks who have been chasing you, or the Warriors, your best brother's team?" Kobe asked.
"It's the Clippers." Fan Xi answered Kobe gently, he didn't want to hide anything.
"..."
Kobe was stunned for a moment.
This was an answer he didn't expect.
Only then did he remember what Fan Xi had said before.
Kobe was very keenly aware of the seriousness of the matter. He had seen how ferocious Fan Xi was. Fan Xi staying with the Clippers meant one thing. He wanted to make the Lakers completely regret it. He wanted to fight the Purple and Gold Army to the death. He wanted to
Let Jeanie Buss stay on the Lakers' pillar of shame forever.
If Fanci chooses the Bulls or Thunder, it means he has no hatred in his heart. Staying in Los Angeles and joining the Clippers is undoubtedly the most difficult path.
On this road, Fanci entered a dead end with no way to retreat. In the end, he, Jeanie Buss, and the Lakers only had one winner standing with their head held high. Just like Fanci single-handedly faced the majestic Big Three in the finals with a disdainful look.
sneer.
Glory is Fan Xi's life.
"Hiss..." Kobe took a breath and murmured in his mind: Jenny Buss, Jenny Buss, why do you want to mess with Jack Fan? This is a vicious wolf that won't let go after being bitten to death.
Clippers, Clippers….
Kobe silently recited the name and fell into a long silence.
…
When Fan Xi walked into Dr. Lace's office, Dr. Lace was stunned. The nationally renowned kinesiology surgeon looked at Fan Xi in great surprise.
She had called Fan Xi repeatedly before, and she persuaded Fan Xi to complete the operation. She promised that she would do her best.
However, she failed to convince Fan Xi.
Instead, she waited until Fan Xi walked into her office.
Yes, Fan Xi took off his protective gear and walked into Dr. Lace's office on June 23.
In the past few days, Fan Xi has been very leisurely. He doesn't pay attention to anything at all, and he doesn't care about what's going on with the Lakers.
He only met with Mike Dunleavy once, and then on June 19, the old Dunleavy, who had originally retired, was rehired by the Clippers and became the acting general manager of the Clippers club.
At this time, many news sources in the league leaked out, saying that the Lakers were planning to trade Fanci.
On the one hand, the release of these news was criticized by Lakers fans and the Los Angeles media as nonsense, but on the other hand, Jenny Buss also felt tremendous pressure. If Fan Xi was really traded, she would definitely be attacked by the crowd. She underestimated Fan Xi.
Hope's influence in Los Angeles.
After all, he was the Finals MVP who fought his way out of a desperate situation. The Son of Miracle has already become the next generation successor to the Purple and Gold in the eyes of the Los Angeles people.
The undercurrent of turbulent public opinion has made Jenny Bass sleepy recently. She even thought about leaving Fan Xi. However, she was worried about Fan Xi's injury risk and worried that Fan Xi was not injured. If Fan Xi was not injured,
With the risk of injury, he will inevitably continue to rise. After this, it is even more impossible for Jenny and Fan Xi to repair their relationship.
In this situation, Jenny Bass could only make up her mind to find ways to send Fan Xi away.
"Jack, what's going on with you? Why did you take off all the protective gear?" Dr. Lace asked Fan Xi in surprise.
Fan Xi smiled and said: "Dr. Lace, I feel great now, as if I have never been injured. A doctor said before that I might have two ligaments, and it doesn't matter even if one is broken. I don't trust him very much, so come here
Please check it again for me."
The art of speaking.
Doctor Lace frowned. She thought this judgment was strange.
Soon, she tested Fan Xi again, and the final results showed that Fan Xi did not have two ligaments, but his torn ligaments were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his broken ligaments seemed to be healing.
On...
Could it be that my previous films were not done well?
Dr. Leith carefully took out two pictures and compared them. The more he looked at them, the more he felt that it might be a problem with his previous judgment.
This is actually a kind of psychological projection of "suspicious neighbors stealing axes".
Fan Xi flexibly showed his ankle to Lace.
Dr. Lace finally felt relieved and said, "Jack, you still have to wear the protective gear. Although your recovery is very good, we still need to conduct further observations. We can't be too optimistic yet."
Fan Xi nodded quickly.
At this time, Dr. Lace said to Fan Xi again: "Jack, can you introduce me to the doctor who diagnosed you? I would like to know how he judged that you do not need surgery. You know, we
Colleagues need to communicate..."
"Forehead…"
This stumped Fan Xi, and he had to say: "My doctor is not a Western medicine doctor, he is a Chinese medicine doctor, and he used to practice martial arts..."
When Fan Xi said this, Lu Yuan walked in with Chen Ye.
Chen Ye is now Fan Xi, Chen Ye's driver, bodyguard, Chinese chef and special assistant.
"Jack, we have a preliminary plan. It's a three-party deal." Lu Yuan said to Fan Xi, who signaled him not to continue.
Then he said to Dr. Lace: "This is the doctor I was talking about. You can communicate with him."
Fan Xi pushed Chen Ye out.
As expected, Dr. Lace didn't think about the meaning of Lu Yuan's words. She came over and held Chen Ye's hand firmly: "Doctor, you are so young. I am Lace. I graduated from Harvard Medical School and have
15 years of medical career. What do you call me?"
Chen Ye frowned and replied: "My name is Chen Ye, you can call me Jet, Jet Chen."
"Jet Chen? What a good name. My favorite Chinese movie actor is Jet Lee." Dr. Lace said enthusiastically.
Doctor Lace mentioned Jet Li, and Chen Ye looked a little embarrassed: Is it possible that Chen Ye was Jet Li's stand-in in the past? By the way, he named himself after Jet Li's English name. Anyway, he was uneducated.
Dr. Leisi began to question Chen Ye, asking him how to judge that Fan Xi's ligament was not broken.
Chen Ye said honestly: "I just pressed his ankles, based on the technique."
This sentence frightened Dr. Lace. Dr. Lace is a Western medicine doctor, and Western medicine uses instruments to diagnose conditions.
They had never heard of a disease being diagnosed by hand.
"How did you press it out according to the technique?" Lace asked curiously.
Chen Ye was so stupid that he didn't know how to explain it. He simply squatted down and grabbed Dr. Lace's ankle: That's how I pushed it out.
Dr. Lace was shocked at first when Chen Ye pressed her, and then she felt a little bit enjoying it, because Chen Ye's technique was very professional and comfortable.
After all, Chen Ye has been giving massage to his senior brothers since he was a child.
Fan Xi and Lu Yuan saw that Chen Ye and Dr. Lei Lei were having a good conversation, so they stopped disturbing them and turned around to walk outside.
Fan Xi asked Lu Yuan: "What three-party transaction?"
"The three-way deal between the Lakers, Hornets, and Clippers has been initially negotiated. Now it depends on which year the Clippers and Lakers are willing to give up the draft picks," Lu Yuan said simply.
"Where's the Magic? Where's Howard?" Fan Xi asked incredulously. The main body of the Lakers' trade has always been Howard. Why did it involve the Hornets? Do you want to trade Paul?
Fan Xi didn't expect that one day he would be on opposite ends of a deal with Paul, the first point guard.
The bond is quite deep.
"The talks have collapsed. The Magic don't want you. The Magic think you can't change anything. They have Nelson and Turkoglu can organize. These are their original words." Lu Yuan said speechlessly.
Fan Xi spread his palms, he had nothing to say: After trying it all, Magic didn't even take a fancy to him.
"By the way, Mr. Jack Yao just called me and said that there is someone who wants to talk to you." Lu Yuan said another thing.
"Which Mr. Yao?" Fan Xi asked.
"Who else is Mr. Yao?" Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and gestured to the highest point.
Fan Xi understood immediately. He quickly reached out and asked Lu Yuan for his cell phone, and then dialed.
After a while, the call was connected.
The voice that came over the phone was actually not Yao Ming's voice, but a strange yet familiar voice: "hello."
"Hello, this is Fan Xi." Fan Xi replied in English.
"I'm Stephen. Yao and I are playing a charity match in China. I don't have your phone number, but I have something very important that I want to talk to you about. Do you have time?" A gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Of course." Fan Xi was actually a little flattered.
Because the person on the other end of the phone is Stephen Nash.
Fan Xi was wondering just now that he was on opposite ends of a deal with the current number one point guard in the league, but now he was on opposite ends of an overseas phone call with the former number one point guard in the league.
If you add Magic Johnson, the number one point guard in history who made the call last night.
Fan Xi and the first point guard really have a close relationship.
