Chapter 8, Determining Starting Lineups and Shirt Numbers
The progress of each training game allowed Steve LaVine to finally determine the starting lineup. Li Lei was selected as expected. Apart from him, the other four players were Kapono, Barnes, Billy Knight, and Gadzuric.

Ryan Molins was the most upset, but Steve LaVine told him that unless his passing improved a lot, he would still be a substitute, no matter who the starting point guard was.
Li Lei won the starting position, and at the same time began to choose his own numbers. Among them, the numbers 11, 25, 31, 32, 33, 35, 42, and 54 are all UCLA's legendary retired numbers. They cannot be selected. Apart from these numbers, other numbers that no one uses can be selected.

"Choose number 0, it's a cool number." Barnes made comments beside him.

"No, number 0 won't work, let's choose number 23, that's the number of the basketball god."

Kapono put forward a different view on the side, and his view resonated with most people. These post-80s basically grew up watching old hooligans.

Li Lei shook his head, looked at a number, and then handed it to the staff next to him, "This is the number, choose it." Li Lei didn't choose number 0 or 23, but chose number 34.

The teammates were very puzzled by Li Lei's approach, but this was Li Lei's freedom. As for why Li Lei didn't choose No. 23, they also wanted to ask. This number is known as the core number in the team. Judging from the care of Li Lei in the current training session, the opponent seems to be the core figure of the current Bruins team, so Kapono and other freshmen deliberately did not choose No. 23.

"I'm not a fan of Michael, so I don't like number 23 very much." Li Lei's explanation made Kapono and others understand.

In the end, the No. 23 jersey returned to Kapono. Although the freshman Lei Yang also likes No. 23, he is the one with the weakest sense of presence among the freshmen. If there is no accident, he will sit on the bench for a whole year. In this year, all he can do is wave a towel and pass water.

On November 11st, the Bruins went away to challenge the Georgetown Hoyas, because November 1th was the start of the regular season of the P-11 league. As for why they went to faraway Washington to play the preseason, it was because other teams in the P-10 league were not so friendly to the Bruins, especially Arenas of the Arizona Wildcats, who hated the Bruins the most. They all threw an olive branch at themselves, and only UCLA did not move because they were interested in an existence as famous as Arenas, but that guy died suddenly in a woman's bed in less than half a season. This incident made UCLA the laughing stock of the p-10 league.

Speaking of these are all tears, the guy who is as famous as Arenas was recommended by Michael Horton, and because of this, he was firm in the idea of ​​​​LaVine and Michael Horton. He must agree with the things he objected to. Anyway, he is the head coach, especially when it comes to Li Lei. When there is no way to get better players, LaVine began to deliberately train Li Lei. Judging from the performance of Li Lei in the training game, he is also constantly hitting Horton in the face. Thinking of this makes LaVine feel refreshed.

The Bruins drove a bus to play this preseason game. The Horns coach Craig Esherick and Steve LaVine have a good personal relationship. Otherwise, the Bruins might not even be able to find an opponent for training.

Hey, this bus is too slow. It would be great if we could get a special plane. Li Lei saw that it would be a while before he arrived in Washington, and he was slandering in his heart.

"By the way, Bruce, we went to find you that day, and there was a Toyota Prius parked outside your door. Whose is that?" Ryan Bailey finally asked what he had been holding in his heart for almost two weeks.

Toyota Prius, Li Lei rolled his eyes, and began to think of some reason to prevaricate the other party. Although he was a scumbag, Li Lei really didn't want the scumbag's name to be engraved on his forehead, or else he would play fart in the future.

"What Prius, you must have read it wrong, man, do you think I am the owner who can afford the car?"

Ryan Bailey looked at Li Lei with a pure face, and then looked at the two bastards Kapono and Barnes whispering to each other, and didn't care about Ryan Bailey's eyes at all.

In such a strange atmosphere, Li Lei and his teammates finally came outside the MCI center. Although this was only a preseason game, there were still many people watching.

The duo of Li Lei and Barnes got off the bus, and no one came up to sign them. This disappointed the two naives. Li Lei didn't have any psychological fluctuations.

Li Lei looked at a woman not far away from him, and he was silently lustful in his heart, and Kapono and Barnes couldn't help but comment on the opposite sex who came and went.

"Wow, look, I have never seen such a majestic one. The ones in the playhouse are completely incomparable."

"That's right, this is the center of the United States, but that guy's legs are so long, hey, if only I had this pair of legs, it would be great."

……

Damn, these two beasts, Li Lei no longer hangs shoulders with those two people, these two guys are too shameful, and it's easy to be degraded by being with them.

"Look, that beauty is looking at me, and she is walking towards me." Kapono saw a woman walking towards him, and his adrenaline surged to a peak. If he was on the court now, he would definitely be Larry Bird second.

Li Lei also saw this woman's appearance, and he almost fell to the ground. Damn it, why is it this woman? Li Lei walked towards the MCI Center without even thinking.
