The 2016 NBA All-Star Weekend was held in Toronto.

Since Kobe has long been famous for his last season, he has received many votes, and for the first time in several years, Wei Xia has not entered the All-Star as the vote leader.

Wei Xia never cared about such a false reputation, let alone a legend about retirement.

What's more, the name of this legend is Kobe.

When he first heard the name Kobe, the other party led Raul Merion to win the Pennsylvania championship at High School.

At that time, everyone knew that Kobe would become the next superstar to go out of Philadelphia.

At that time, Wei Xia could only watch Kobe log in directly with the NBA in a way that looked up to him. He never dreamed that he would become teammates with Kobe, and he would never have thought that they would win the championship together.

Before heading to Toronto for the All-Star, the 76ers fought an overtime offensive battle with the Clippers.

As a result, the 76ers narrowly defeated the Clippers 140-136.

In this game, Wei Xia's quasi-triple double-double with 50 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists, while Paul's performance of 36 points and 13 assists also reminds people of who was the person who shared the rookie of the year with Wei Xia.

Although the honors Wei Xia have received have been higher than Paul's level, when it comes to the 2005 players, people are still accustomed to combining them into double-girls.

At the end of the game, Weisha and Paul shook hands and hugged.

"Our best goodbye is to see you in the finals," Paul said poetically.

Wei Xia's talent was triggered passively: "The premise is that you have to lead the team to the division final."

His words undoubtedly hurt Paul's heart.

Although Wei Xia did not mean it.

But Paul still has to look dismissive: "No one will work hard for the division final!"

His words are very handsome, but for a superstar who has not touched the floor of the division finals so far, he is relatively less handsome.

The 76ers and the Clippers game ends here.

This is the second time the two teams have played this season, and if nothing unexpected happens, it will be the last time.

The victory over the Clippers brought the 76ers into the holiday with a record of 36 wins and 16 losses.

Hayward was unfortunately out of the All-Star Weekend, but three of the 76ers were still going to Toronto, namely Weisha and Cousins ​​who were selected for the main tournament, and Oubre who was selected for the rookie challenge.

Moreover, for the needs of business activities, Wei Xia had to go to Toronto a day in advance.

Elaine wanted to prepare for him half a day in advance based on that basis.

"What do you think of Kobe's last All-Star?"

"Why are you like a reporter?"

"You answer me first, and you won't be embarrassed if you are asked this question in the next few days."

Elaine said something very much, and Wei Xia thought a little bit before saying: "If you think about it, you are not that old. He is here and has played for 20 years. How many players can play for 20 years? It is precisely because he has played for so long and I know very well how much he loves the game. I have not been able to fully accept the fact that he is going to retire."

"In my heart, I always feel that he will fight for another two or three years."

Elaine can only say: "The injury has really had a great impact on him."

"Um..."

If there were no injuries, Kobe should still be at the All-Star level now;

If there are no injuries...

Wei Xia's thoughts echoed into the past. When he foresaw the future through the old times for the first time, he saw four things.

Jaden Odom's death, his departure, Kobe's Achilles tendon injury, and the crashed plane.

At present, he has failed.

He only prevented the first thing from happening, and the next two things still happened.

Can he avoid it?

Wei Xia often wonders, if he does it again, how can he avoid leaving the Lakers? And how can he stop Kobe from being injured?

It seems that these are two coherent things.

Only when he stays in the Lakers can Kobe not overwork and cause serious injuries. So, if he cannot stay in the Lakers, Kobe will inevitably be injured. So what about the last thing? How should he stop this matter that concerns Kobe's life?

If Kobe cannot be brought to Philadelphia, how can he affect this stubborn guy to treat private jets more cautiously?

A storm was rolling in Wei Xia's mind. No matter how he thought, he could not think of the answer.

He knew that he had not had much time. After Kobe retired, he would travel on his own private jet wherever he could reach.

This means that the risk is greatly increased and he may crash on any day.

"Are you worried?" Elaine saw it.

"Have you discussed Kobe's retirement with Vanessa?" Wei Xia still wanted to struggle.

Elaine smiled and said, "No, I think Kobe's letter has already said everything he should say, and he really doesn't seem to be able to continue."

Wei Xia felt even more depressed when she heard it.

It seems that he can only accept this result.

The next day, he flew to Toronto alone.

Cousins ​​and Oubre will not set off tomorrow, after all, they do not have endless business activities to participate in forever.

Wei Xia spent a few years making herself a superstar whose business value was second only to James and Kobe.

He lived their lives, endless social engagements and activities, was observed in detail, and he made headlines as long as he did something small, so he had to consider the influence no matter what he did.

Wei Xia often misses the past, but as long as he thinks about why Jerry Bass chose to give up on him, he has enough motivation to stick to his current life.

Kobe may be a busier person than Wei Xia.

He may not even have a real holiday, and he has been running around since the day he entered the holiday.

Players of his level are never careless in retirement season. This is not only his own business, but also the face of the entire team. The league also hopes that the previous generation of storefront players will leave in the most decent way.

In addition to participating in commercial activities, Wei Xia was also invited by the alliance to record a short video.

In the video, he wants to blessing Kobe and talk about Kobe's influence on him.

There is no doubt that this video will be included in the short tribute to Kobe on the night of the All-Star Game.

Wei Xia faced the camera and didn't know where to start for a moment.

"Wish. If you need text..." The crew had already expected this problem, so they prepared the lines for Wei Xia in advance.

Wei Xia politely declined the crew's good intentions.

He asked himself that his relationship with Kobe has not been so indifferent that he needed a text from the film crew to bring to him to congratulate Kobe.

Wei Xia thought carefully before saying, "In 1999, I was still an unknown little brat. For me, Kobe is a goal that needs to be chased with all his strength. Even today, I am still following his footprints. The road is very long, and I hope I can catch up with him in the end."

"Wish, do you have anything to say about Kobe?"

"Nothing to say, his departure means another bastard is missing from the league, which is gratifying."

However, this passage cannot be put into the main film.

The film crew needs Wei Xia to adjust his condition, and don’t regard this as a response to interviews, but be careful.

This was difficult for Wei Xia. He thought for a long time and didn't know what to say to wish Kobe better.

"No, let's do it." Wei Xia said.

He ultimately did not wish Kobe Bryant because he felt that Kobe shouldn't have retired like this.

Since Wei Xia did not bless Kobe, in the short film of Kobe's tribute, Wei Xia went from the original finale to the prelude to the entire video.

A good tribute short film requires not only the highlights of the protagonist, but also the rainbow farts of the legendary legend, and finally the tributes and blessings of the active players.

Wei Xia had no choice but to pay tribute, so his clip was placed in front of the tribute short film.

After recording, Wei Xia left the studio and he had other things to do.

For example, shooting advertisements, signing commercial contracts, and squeezing out half an hour from their busy schedules to have dinner with Kobe.

Having a meal with Kobe is probably the most leisurely moment of the day.

"Aren't you tired?" Wei Xia asked in confusion.

Kobe ordered the dish and said complacently: "This is where you are still inferior to me. I have unlimited energy when dealing with business activities, and you just need to write 'I fucking hate all this' on your face."

"Sau Rui, I have to correct you - I can't say 'Fuck' for a year - ps: This sentence doesn't count."

They would chat with rough content for ten minutes, just like the floppy people always try to fill the novel with water and find another opportunity to get to the point.

"When did you decide not to fight?" Wei Xia suddenly asked.

Kobe didn't keep it a secret and didn't avoid talking. He surprised Wei Xia directly: "Start from the time I discovered that I was no longer the same as I was."
