Chapter 289: Legendary Retirement!
The NBA stars, celebrities from all walks of life and countless fans at the scene applauded excitedly and were moved.
Lin Tian patted Kobe on the shoulder lightly, and said, "Judging from your state this season, you can actually fight for another year."
Before he joined the Lakers, Kobe's shooting percentage was less than 35%, and his offensive efficiency was very low.
And when he joined the Lakers, Kobe reduced his possession of the ball, and played very well without the ball. His shooting percentage, during the second half of the season, abruptly pulled back a lot, so much so that he played the entire regular season. His shooting percentage was actually pulled to more than 40%.
With Lin Tian and Howard, Kobe averaged 14 points per game.
In such a state, it may not be impossible to play another season.
Kobe's eyes lit up first, then he shook his head and smiled wryly, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I also want to play for another year, but the atmosphere is already here..."
He is an extremely strong person. He said in the middle of the season that this is his last season.
After finishing this season with vigor and vigor, and realizing my dream of sixth championship, I am already very satisfied.
Lin Tian also knew exactly what Kobe was thinking, he nodded silently.
More than a dozen players of the Lakers walked towards the player channel under the witness of countless guns and short guns.
At the door of the locker room, dozens of bottles of champagne and some goggles have been placed.
Howard, who had been suppressed for a long time, rushed over and picked up two bottles of champagne, and began to celebrate.
Nick Young also excitedly took out his mobile phone from the locker room to start the live broadcast.
Kobe did not open the champagne. He held his little daughter in one hand, and took the cigar handed by the staff with the other, and shouted: "Guys! Let's not get drunk tonight!"
Kobe's words were naturally a joke.
The Lakers' locker room turned into a sea of joy.
The players happily sprinkled champagne and hummed as they celebrated their top honor of the season.
The head coach of the Lakers, Scott, also celebrated with the players in tears.
Scott's player career is not impressive, and his coaching career has also been questioned.
Tonight's champion completely silenced those who doubted him, and also added a touch of brilliance to his resume.
At least he will be discussed by people for a long time to come.
This is a season full of magic. They have jumped from the bottom team to the championship, stepped over the 73-win Warriors, and also stepped over the Cavaliers...
The players celebrated in the locker room for more than two hours, and Howard and Nick Young drank a lot of champagne.
The two of them were born optimists, and when they drank too much champagne, they talked a lot.
Howard, who used to giggle when he lost a game, wiped his tears several times tonight.
When talking with Lin Tian, Howard kept repeating: "I like Los Angeles so much! Lin! I will definitely stay here and fight for the next championship with you! We will soon get the second championship trophy, and the third championship! I can't wait to renew my contract!"
Howard's salary this season is as high as more than 2200 million, but this is also the last year of his contract.
After tonight's game is over, Howard will basically be a free agent.
这个赛季常规赛他的数据是场均15分12篮板0.7抢断1.8盖帽2失误和3犯规。
However, in the playoffs, Howard's data has evolved, his scoring average has increased by 2 points, and his defensive efficiency has also improved.
Although it is the small ball era, a powerful center is an indispensable puzzle for the championship.
Lin Tian also patted Howard on the shoulder heavily: "Dwight, I know, we can't do without you."
He roughly calculated that Kobe has retired, and his contract is not big. This summer, they can sign too many players!
And with Lin Tian here, they can avoid a lot of detours and avoid the rubbish contracts like Mozgov and Luer Deng.
All in all, in one sentence, the Lakers have grasped the present, and the future can be expected!
When the players were almost celebrating, Bass Jr. also came to the locker room.
For Bass Jr., this season can also be regarded as his redemption season.
The Lakers' showy operations in recent years have caused him to be criticized verbally and in writing, and he will even be forced to step down soon.
And this season, Lin Tian's sudden birth made his reputation as the boss all the way from the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain.
Little Buss waved his hand, and decided to treat his guests to dinner again tonight.
This is obviously a good thing that cannot be refused for all the players of the Lakers, and everyone readily agrees.
As a result, a Michelin restaurant near the Lakers was directly booked by Bass Jr., and the players and their families began to celebrate in the second half.
When Lin Tian walked out of the restaurant, it was almost dawn.
He returned to his apartment with the FMVP trophy in his hand, charged the phone that had been turned off, then turned off the alarm clock next to the bed, and fell asleep.
This time, Lin Tian slept until twelve o'clock in the noon. This was the most peaceful and comfortable sleep he had this season.
He yawned, took out his phone and turned it on, only to realize that he had received countless messages.
These news are all news that wish him the championship.
Lin Tian turned his head and glanced at his FMVP trophy, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
After replying to those friends who sent messages one by one, he opened the news forum.
Today's news is undoubtedly the news of the Lakers' championship and Kobe's retirement.
The news filled his phone screen.
Although he has already won the championship, Lin Tian still couldn't help scrolling through the news one by one:

Looking at these overwhelmed news, Lin Tianchang sighed, this holiday, he still has too many things to do, but fortunately they have plenty of time.
