Sure enough, Lin Hao's next sentence made Garnett spit out blood.

"It's just a shame that my idol didn't even make the playoffs this season."

At this time, a careful reporter asked Kobe:

"Kobe, I've noticed that in the crucial moments of the last few games, you've handed the ball to Lin Hao without reservation."

"Does this mean that you give up your position as the team's leader?"

Upon hearing this sensitive question, everyone present fell silent.

Even the Phil Jackson stared at Kobe intently.

He has always wondered why Kobe gave a lot of the ball to Lin Hao. This is not in line with his character!

"You're right, I did give up my position as the boss!"

Kobe said in a deep voice.

His words exploded among the crowd like a bombshell.

The whole place was in an uproar.

Reporters began to whisper and talk among themselves, and the scene instantly fell into chaos.

At this time, there was no joy on Lin Hao's face, but he was in a very low mood.

Because the price Kobe pays for giving up his top position is that he will have to request a trade next season.

After the scene quieted down, Kobe continued:

"In the sport of basketball, strength is the key to everything."

"At this point, Lin's abilities have surpassed mine."

"Whether it's personal scoring ability or the ability to finish the game, I'm not as good as him."

"I am a person who longs for the championship. For this supreme honor, I am willing to give way."

These words caused the scene to fall into silence.

A senior sports reporter in the front row had a look of shock and disbelief in his eyes, and the recorder in his hand almost slipped because of this sudden news.

The young female reporter next to her covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes flashing with excitement, as if she had already seen the hot sales of newspapers tomorrow.

"Really, you all don't understand how terrifying Lin Hao is."

Kobe smiled bitterly to himself.

When it comes to how much Lin Hao has contributed to the Lakers, Kobe knows it best.

Almost all top outside scorers failed to score high points or their shooting percentages dropped sharply against the Lakers.

This is Lin Hao's credit.

Even without a top point guard, the Lakers' offense remains smooth and fluid.

It’s all thanks to Lin Hao.

When his teammates were demoralized and lost their spirit, he and the Zen Master were helpless.

Lin Hao always has a way to inspire people.

Sometimes, when the Lakers were in desperate situations, even he himself wanted to give up the game.

But Lin Hao always finds a way to reverse the score and win.

Early the next morning, NBA post-game reports were compressed into small chunks across all sports media.

The news of Kobe's retirement dominated the headlines:

"Chris! Chris! Wake up!"

James kept pushing and shoving Bosh who was sleeping soundly.

"LeBron, what happened?"

Bosh climbed up reluctantly.

After watching the game last night, he and James flew back to Cleveland overnight.

They plan to use this offseason to work hard on their skills so that they can compete against the Colin combination next season.

"Look at the newspaper! Kobe has handed over the Lakers leadership position to Lin Hao!"

James said excitedly.

"It's really shocking! But there's no need to make such a fuss!"

Bosh rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Don't you understand what this means?"

"What does it mean?"

James waved his hands excitedly:

"From what I know, Kobe is a person who never gives up. He doesn't even give in to O'Neal."
