Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant said today that, if nothing else, he will certainly appear in the opening game of the Lakers game against the Bulls. In talking about his wrist injury, Bryant said his right wrist injury will not cause much impact on him, his wrist is no problem.
Bryant before the Lakers in the first preseason game with the Clippers were injured, when the race to the third quarter, Bryant basket ball immediate concern, when he tried to dunk been DeAndre – Jordan’s cover, he fell to the When the hand stays on the ground a bit, also was injured wrist. Originally thought it was only an ordinary sprain, but after receiving an MRI, doctors told Bryant, on his right wrist triangular ligament tear, ligament tear, but fortunately this is not serious, do not need surgery, but will take some time to recover, Bryant and therefore missed the second preseason game.
Today, Bryant did not participate in team training, in an interview, Bryant said his wrist is still “swollen and very painful.” But Bryant also said: “I will make every effort to find solutions, play campaign has always been my nature.”
If Kobe played with the Bulls battle for Christmas, then he may use when splinting the wrist. On his wrist injury, Bryant broke the news, said: “This injury may not be able to recover, because ligament has not, and I am powerless, but I have experienced many times before a hand injury, I will get everything. ”
The past few seasons, Bryant often played with the injury. December 2009, Bryant right index finger fracture, Bryant was selected to bring plywood is played. Although each game a few minutes on the injury to be hurt, but Bryant persevered, and eventually led the Lakers won the season championship, Bryant himself crowned the Finals MVP.
Last season, regular season in mid-March in the battle with the Mavericks, Bryant had sprained his ankle when he even thought he had to the season, but in the end, Bryant ignored ankle injury, played in all 82 regular-season games. Lakers first round of the playoffs with the Hornets in the fourth game, the last time Paul Bryant on the defensive when he sprained his left ankle, but Bryant did not choose the truce.
This time, still no exception. Bryant’s old partner Fisher said yesterday: “If I in Las Vegas, I would bet, bet Bryant will play in the opener, he is the strongest guy I’ve ever seen one, he will find a solution , and his injuries do not use excuses. And I think he would cut his wrist injured bird, and then play games with the other hand opener. ”
After the latest round of labor negotiations broke down, which means there may be forced to cancel more games. Union seems to have done the race to prepare for further changes, they have to allow NBA Arena make alternative arrangements.
According to the original schedule, December 13, U.S. time, the Lakers will be at home against the Raptors. Although the game has not been canceled, but the Staples Center on race day has been used for other purposes. Lan Wang a small boss Jay-Z and hip-hop superstar Kanye West will be another organized tour here.
NBA in which the explanation is: “As the first two weeks of the regular season canceled, NBA schedule will be re-adjusted, including the December 13 Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center this game will make alternative arrangements.”
In addition, there is another game for Jay-Z and Kanye West’s tour to give way, it is time the United States November 30, Bulls and Spurs battle at home. In fact, the Knicks Madison Square Garden arena but also in the United States, Nov. 7 and 8, host two tours, but that has been included among the abolition of the regular season two weeks.
After the NBA lockout, the arena can not host the game, only by host major concerts and other ways to compensate for the loss. Some people believe that this is a dangerous signal, means that alliance has lost more games to do the preparation. ESPN expert Max Tann wrote on Twitter: “Now NBA will further cancel the game is still unknown, but likely to be more than two weeks to cancel the game, just as the same as the last stop.”
Two recent developments:
Houston Rockets: The Rockets still the same, Yao Ming is still the DL and Brooks is still among the battle yet to play tomorrow. The Rockets to record 5 wins and 12 losses in the first month of the end of the game, and how embarrassing it is enough just to twelfth place in the West, from the playoffs have to say that there is a great distance. Southwest of the region into war, are also the distal collapse of the situation in that country, Han Fu in the calf. The team environment is as strong, what we are debating who should assume this responsibility.
Los Angeles Lakers: After the battle today, the Lakers have to endure a lot of criticism from the media. After losing to the Grizzlies, this is their three-game losing streak of the season was. successive loss to weak teams, the Lakers are no longer in the field as a team to win, but also the beginning of the season losing streak, strong unstoppable. And they are no longer exposed fierce in this issue has begun to lose all of Los Angeles Andrew Bynum had.
core duel: Martin VS Kobe Bryant
The two are, like club’s top scorer. Martin scored this season, as always, consistent, averaging over 20 points can be, and under his thin body, lack of capacity is also top class, as against the Union. However, compared to Kobe Bryant, Martin was a vegetable. Although Martin some games down, it seems you can do in the performance of the teams that get high scores, but once a critical moment, was not trustworthy. regular habit of the ground lost in the lakes can not make more, but Bryant’s alley.
In mourning:
Originally from Los Angeles Lakers insider who has been a proud force. But the recent run of three defeats exposed to many problems, Gasol has always been good at playing power forward, and Odom on the tonnage of less than the power forward position. I often find each other in strong, it will become very poor. Also beginning Gasol offensive season MVP performance in general after the start of qualifying low rate, hit too low is also affected by several of their field. within the most serious problems the Rockets, Yao Ming not Luis Scola light of good defensive attack, while Hayes had a lot of defense technologies, and experience is not a good physique and in height.
Battle tomorrow, but the Lakers seem to have a run of three defeats, the recent fall. But the overall strength of the race, the Rockets have yet to cut a big difference between a good Lakers, the Lakers will be increasingly aware that not dump the ditch. So tomorrow, Battle of Houston, the Rockets are ominous.
