Wei Xia's second playoff journey ended in disappointment.

In the 2006-07 season, the Lakers made a step further than last season. They reached the division finals without anyone's favorability and lost to the Spurs, which are obviously stronger.

In all 16 playoff games, Wei Xia played, and averaged 45 minutes per game.

If it is only counted as a series against the Spurs, his average playing time has reached an appalling 46 minutes and 34 seconds.

Just looking at the big score, the Lakers lost 1-4, lost simply, without any suspense, the Spurs swept them like a gentleman.

But the score is honest, and it sincerely reflects that the process of the series is not as suspenseless as the score.

"The Lakers have brought enough challenges to be able to play a series with such an opponent before the Finals, which means a lot to us," Tim Duncan said in an ESPN live interview.

Popovich abandoned his prejudice and said bluntly: "They are undoubtedly respectable opponents, and defeating them is one of the most difficult things."

The Spurs' praise is not a scene.

In the five games of the series, the score difference between the Spurs won was in single digits, and none of them exceeded 7 points.

The third and fourth games that the Lakers lost were both a slight difference.

The Spurs have never been able to relax from beginning to end, but if you look at the Lakers carefully, you can see that they are a team with extremely high ceilings.

Kobe, who is under 30, is already the first of all the defenders in the league. No one can tell what appearance Wei Xia will return next year, as he has improved year by year.

The biggest question before the Lakers is whether their management is confident of forming a championship team, just like what they did after being swept by the Spurs in 1999.

"You played well, and I enjoyed the fight against you."

Bruce Bowen stretched out his hand to Wei Xia on the dark side of the Silver Black Legion.

Wei Xia smiled faintly: "I don't enjoy it at all."

Bowen laughed in a scathing laugh: "That's what I am most proud of."

They shook hands, and the Spurs ran through the Lakers and went straight to the final pass.

The data left by Wei Xia is just like this: 16 games, averaging 46 minutes and 34 seconds per game, scoring 19.4 points, 8.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.4 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 42%, 85%, and 36% in the three events.

His offensive data is a bit down compared to the regular season, but considering his playing time, defensive performance, and the opponents between him and Kobe, they often make the decision to "we don't care how many points Kobe wants to score, in short, it's right for us to not let Wish score", thus imposing a superstar-level blockade on him.

Except for the semi-finals against the Warriors, Wei Xia has no easy round of series.

But from the first round of the Jazz to the Spurs against the Spurs, Wei Xia's performance has a clear upward trend, and he is getting better and better as the series progresses.

“What does failure mean to you?”

"Pain." Wei Xia simply replied, "Only pain."

"How will you adjust in the future?"

"I'm just a player, I don't care about the operation of the management, but I hope our inside line can get better," Wei Xia said tactfully.

For two consecutive years, they all fell on the inside.

Kobe is not as free and easy as he is.

"Our management is too poor, so there are so many trash who shouldn't play in the NBA and play in our team, and there is still a lot of playing time! It's our fault. We didn't let the team earn more money, so they don't have the money to strengthen!" In addition to scolding some of their teammates, Kobe also turned his finger on the management.

Moreover, it was at the press conference where the series ended after the game.

To be sure, Jerry Bass will hear Kobe's sarcasm at him tomorrow.

The Lakers' future has also become unclear.

However, the Lakers who were eliminated tonight cannot occupy tomorrow's media pages, because the fifth game of the Eastern Conference Finals, known as the Cockfighting Field, broke out, and a world-shaking bloody battle and a history-story battle. The founder is LeBron James, the son of the God-Chancelling.

The bloody battle between the Knight and the Pistons lasted for two overtimes.

James won 30 points in the last 32 points of the Cavaliers team, almost using the power of one person to kill the Iron Blood Pistons' courage, leading the Cavaliers to win the Tianwang Mountain, and changing their fate against the will of heaven. It was only one step away from the finals.

This battle is called "48    Special".

Every reporter, every commentator, every fan is saying that James has played the greatest playoff performance ever.

For example, the famous Golden-Sound Groom Albert (Marv     Albert), who witnessed Michael Jordan's career, but watched James's battle of history, commented: "Michael is great, but he has never had such a dominant game!"

In fact, this is a common phenomenon.

Everyone hopes that the legend they witness is the best one.

When people calm down, rational people will reflect, has Jordan really not had a similar game?

Can they force themselves to forget how Jordan in 1992 proved that "the glider is strong, but being tied with him is an offense to me", how to conquer the 2.0 New York Knicks in the 1990s in a way that makes the opponent say the most, and how to use layup - steal Malone - a century-old shooting to put a perfect end to his undisputed career as the best basketball player in history?

Sooner or later, people will wake up from the fanaticism of relegating the old and crowning the new.

But this does involve a problem, greatness has a shelf life.

James' greatness has nothing to do with the Lakers, and has nothing to do with Kobe and Wei Xia.

They were eliminated on James' night of becoming a god, becoming outsiders of the game, and were on the guest.

In the locker room after losing, Phil Jackson made a plain speech: "This year, we have come to an end, but we can look forward to the coming year and hope you will be better, Goodjob!"

Everyone's hands folded together, and they shouted slogans softly, and they wanted to pack up and go their separate ways.

The offseason is coming again, veterans need to rest, newcomers want to make progress, and the Middle Ages need to find ways to make up for their shortcomings in special training.

Last year, Wei Xia played badly and Kobe invited him to drink.

"Do you want another drink?" Wei Xia asked.

"I'm not in the mood." The free and easy on the court was pretending. Even though he was very open at the time, he walked to the locker room and found that he had been buried for a year. His anger and depression were visible to the naked eye.

Judging from his appearance, Wei Xia didn't want to say anything to stimulate him anymore.

Moreover, he happened to have something else to do and didn't have time to drink with Kobe.

Wei Xia packed up her things and prepared to leave.

"Don't be lazy during the offseason," Kobe said.

Wei Xia glanced at him and snorted: "I am different from you, I don't have to play the national team."

"If you can even be selected for the US team, I will consider quitting because the level is too low and it is not suitable for me." He was in a quarrel, which means that the situation was not at its worst.

Wei Xia snorted coldly: "Even if Team USA calls me, I won't go."

"Invite you?" Kobe sneered, "Unless Coach K or Colangelo are crazy!"

Wei Xia flashed, and the locker room kept reminding him of the fact that the season was over.

The preparations for losing have been made long ago. Since they were 3-0 by the Spurs, their chances of winning the series are infinitely close to 0.

Winning the fourth game and ensuring that it is not swept is a satisfactory result.

Wei Xia went straight back to the hotel room.

Odom and others asked him out to go to a nightclub, but he was in a bad mood.

At the hotel, Weisha received a text message from Elaine Trovis.

The text message is very short.

Just one word.

"Congratulations."

Wei Xia also replied with a very short text message.

"Congratulations???"

"Even if you win the fifth game, it will be difficult to win the sixth game. Even if you win the sixth game, you will definitely lose the seventh game."

Trovis' second text message arrived soon.

Wei Xia still felt unwilling to accept it after seeing it: "Since we can win three games in a row, why can't we win the fourth game?"

“Because there is no precedent.”

A woman with a standing character, even if she just sends a text message and cannot hear the voice, Wei Xia can still simulate her voice and the tone and expression of her words in her mind.

Trovis did it.

"You are really good at comforting others."

Trovis replied proudly: "Yes, I'm really good at it."

"Uh...what I'm saying is good at, maybe it needs to add an asterisk to prepare to show what I really think."

They sent text messages back and forth like this, and no one took the initiative to call, as if chatting like this was more romantic.

At the end of the conversation, Trovis sent a kissing expression: "Good night."

"If I showed up at your doorstep, would you give me a comforting kiss?"

"You try it? Stick your tongue#"

At this time, Wei Xia could only be upset, why his special ability was to travel through time and space while sleeping, rather than freely shuttle through the city in reality.

But if you think about it carefully, his special ability to travel through time and space in his dream changed his life.

Without this ability, he may not grow 1.7 meters in his entire life. Not to mention playing in the NBA, he has to pick up the ball in Raulmerion's reserve team for four years in high school, right?

From another perspective, he is much better.

"Good night." He finally replied to Trovis.
