After training, Wang Lang said goodbye to his teammates, left the training ground, and returned to his hotel room.

Lillian was there watching news about the Lakers on TV.

Wang Lang's eyes widened and asked, "What did you see?"

Lilian replied: "The Lakers have had a good atmosphere recently, there is no pressure on the record, and Kobe's retirement season has also made the Lakers very united."

Wang Lang nodded: "Then there is no difficulty for us to win."

Lillian said slowly: "When I was a child, I used to watch Lakers games, and Kobe Bryant was very good at that time, and his shots were all difficult shots, which was really admirable.

"It's a pity that he's retiring now, and he'll be a legend for the Lakers from now on."

Wang Lang asked: "Then do you want me to help you ask for a Kobe Bryant's autograph?"

Lilian was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course you can, I still have a poster of Kobe Bryant back then, and I hope he can sign it."

Wang Lang was a little surprised

: "You still have such posters, do you have collected a lot of posters?" Lilian looked happy: "That's true, I have a lot of good-looking posters, including Kobe, Wade, Maddy, Curry, etc., by the way, I still have your posters."

Wang Lang nodded confidently: "It's great." He

also had a good night's rest and was ready to return to Golden State tomorrow.

The next day, Wang Lang got on a plane and returned to Golden State with his teammates.

On the plane, he saw Thompson looking at a photo on his phone of what he looked like when he was watching the Lakers.

Wang Lang was a little surprised: "You are also a Kobe fan?"

Thompson nodded: "Yes, I like Kobe very much."

Wang Lang smiled: "Then when you see Kobe Bryant this time, your feelings must be complicated, right?"

Thompson sighed: "He may be supposed to play another season, but it's a pity that his body may not be able to hold up, and it's better to retire."

Wang Lang asked: "Then if you defend Kobe, will you do your best?"

Thompson shook his head: "Not 100 percent, but 80 percent, I don't want Kobe to think that I deliberately let him."

Wang Lang didn't ask anymore, knowing that the next game would be interesting.

After returning to Golden State's home court, Wang Lang also met the Warriors fans who had been waiting for a long time.

Many of them shouted Wang Lang's name, and many of them wore Wang Lang's jersey.

Wang Lang interacted enthusiastically with these fans.

He also enjoyed the moment.

In pre-game training, Wang Lang saw Kobe.

At this time, Kobe Bryant was talking and laughing, very relaxed.

And after seeing Curry, Kobe Bryant took the initiative to come over to say hello.

Curry and Thompson are also happy.

Wang Lang also shook hands with Kobe.

But at this moment, Kobe Bryant suddenly said: "Young man, let me see your strength, I heard that you are now the best shooting center in the league."

Kobe's eyes became sharp, reminding Wang Lang of Kobe Bryant in the championship season.

Wang Lang was also stunned for a moment and replied: "You will see!" At

the same time, the host of the live broadcast room changed, and it became Barkley and O'Neal again.

Barkley had a smile on his face: "This is a game where we won't have an argument, and the Lakers are certainly not the opponent of the Warriors."

O'Neill laughed: "You kid is really too much, my old friend is about to retire, and you still have the heart to think about this." Barkley

nodded: "For you, Kobe's retirement is really special. It's fun that you were teammates, then rivals, and then friends.

O'Neal had a look of regret on his face: "I shouldn't have left in the first place, otherwise, I would have had a few more championships now." Barkley

asked rhetorically: "Friend, can you make mistakes if you're so smart?"

O'Neill put one hand on his cheek: "Everyone makes mistakes, the point is that I recognize my mistakes, and I have lost too much because of them." Barkley

was still taunting: "Okay, you might as well put on your jersey now and play another game with Kobe."

O'Neill glared at Barkley: "You guy, it's all bad ideas."

Immediately afterwards, Barkley changed his words: "Let's talk about these young people of the Lakers, who do you think will be an All-Star, especially the Lakers' power forward Randle and guard Russell."

O'Neal shook his head: "I think both of these guys have a chance, it's just that they won't be superstars, or rather, All-Star is their ceiling."

Barkley asked rhetorically: "What about this game? Can Wang Lang beat Randle?"

O'Neal waved his hand: "There is no suspense, let's see what kind of wonderful performance Wang Lang will have in this game." "

The game started and the starting line-ups for both sides came in.

The Warriors are center Wang Lang, power forward Green, small forward Barnes, scoring guard Thompson, and point guard Curry.

The Lakers are center Hibbert, power forward Randle, small forward Clarkson, scoring guard Kobe, and point guard Russell.

Wang Lang also knew the player he was going to match, Hibbert.

At this time, Hibbert is no longer at his peak, and his interior defense is far less powerful than before.

However, Hibbert's defensive experience is still there, and it will still cause some minor problems for Wang Lang.

The game began, and to the cheers of the Warriors fans, both sides jumped the ball in the midfield.

After the referee threw the ball into the air, Wang Lang deliberately jumped a little slower, allowing Hibbert to touch the basketball and dial it to Kobe.

The Lakers attacked, and Bryant dribbled to the frontcourt.

In the face of Thompson's defense, Bryant dribbled with his back and watched around.

The action also kept Thompson from breaking the ball.

Thompson didn't choose to fight closely, he just kept his distance and didn't go too far.

Bryant also made a turnaround and passed move, pretending to break through under Thompson's defense.

Thompson didn't judge it and subconsciously stepped back to defend.

But Bryant suddenly made a jumper.

It's not as fast as Curry, but it's beautiful with a backswing.

The ball went in, and Bryant started the game well.

He smiled, too.

Thompson laughed as well.

The Warriors are 0-2 and trailing in the opening game.

The Warriors attacked, and Wang Lang dribbled the ball to the outside.

It wasn't Hibbert who defended him, it was Randall.

Wang Lang also knew that this was a preparation that the Lakers had prepared for a long time.

Randall spread his arms and lowered his center of gravity to prevent Wang Lang from breaking through at any time.

When Wang Lang saw the other party's movements, the corners of his mouth also rose, and he made a hand-to-hand block for Curry.

The pick-and-roll completely blocked Russell's footsteps and allowed Randle to make up for it.

Curry also took advantage of the situation to dribble behind and break through past Randle.

Hibbert came on guard.

But Wang Lang also took the opportunity to accelerate and rushed to the left side of the penalty area.

Randle's speed couldn't catch up with him, and Wang Lang also got a great opportunity.

Curry passes the ball directly.

Wang Lang received the ball and shot at great speed, hitting it directly.

The Warriors were 2-2 and the score was tied quickly.

Kobe Bryant smiled: "Playing the board and shooting, you actually learned Duncan's technique."

Wang Lang also nodded, turned around and returned to defense.
