Basketball K God

Chapter 73

In addition, not to mention that the two teams also share a home court. The Lakers are currently the top team in the league, and the Clippers are one of the biggest teams.

The Kings will play back-to-back away games in this game. Fortunately, Los Angeles is not far from Sacramento. Everyone is located in California. The drive of less than 1000 kilometers will not affect the state of the game due to the fatigue of the players.

Los Angeles has a special meaning to Xie Kai.In the United States, his home is in Los Angeles, because his parents are there.He read junior high school and high school there, and he already has some fetters on the city.

Because it was back to back, Xie Kai didn't have time to go home to reunite with his parents.After they arrived in Los Angeles, they simply conducted a training session, took a break, and prepared for the evening game.

Knowing that Xie Kai was going to play in Los Angeles, his mother, Chen Guixiang, contacted him the day before and told him to have dinner at the restaurant owned by his aunt in Chinatown.

Now Xie Kai is already a real NBA player.Chen Guixiang is proud of being in the Chinese circle in Chinatown, and it also drives the business of Xie Meiya's restaurant by the way.Since the previous NCAA games, many Chinese people will gather in this restaurant to watch Xie Kai’s games together, and of course eating and spending here is indispensable.

Xie Meiya didn't expect that her nephew had already brought traffic to his restaurant before he was famous in the NBA.If Xie Kai becomes an NBA All-Star player in the future, won't the business of the restaurant explode?

Excited to think about it, Xie Meiya lamented that if there is no effort, there will be no return.Thinking back, she really spent a lot of energy and money to help her elder brother's family immigrate to the United States. Now thinking about it, all of this seems to be worth it.

Chen Guixiang asked Xie Kai to come to Chinatown for dinner, firstly because she wanted to meet her son, and secondly because she wanted to make herself more face in Chinatown.Look, my Chen Guixiang's son is playing in the NBA, I'm not bragging!
Xie Kai didn't agree to go to Chinatown for dinner. Firstly, he didn't have time, and secondly, he didn't like being asked questions like they were commodities.

Chen Guixiang was somewhat disappointed that she couldn't get her son to come to Chinatown for dinner. She was very quick-witted, and immediately said that she was going to watch the game at Staples and asked her son to get some tickets.Her logical thinking is very clear: since you can't come to see me, we can also go to see you!Anyway, as long as we can meet each other, as for the location, it doesn't seem to be that important.

Xie Kai could not refuse this request no matter what.It's not that he doesn't want to see his parents, it's just that he doesn't have time.He specifically discussed with the team whether he could get some tickets. He originally planned to pay for the tickets himself, after all, it was an away game.

After getting the team's permission, Xie Kai got a few tickets, and he bought 10 extra tickets at his own expense, so that his parents could bring a few friends over.He knows that his mother cares about saving face, and doing this can make her happy.As long as it can make mother happy, spending a little money is nothing at all.

Neither the Clippers nor the Kings are strong teams. The Clippers have been in the league for many years. Even in Los Angeles, their home game attendance is simply incomparable to that of the Lakers.So their home tickets are much cheaper than the Lakers.

After learning that Xie Kai had prepared more than a dozen tickets, Chen Guixiang was very happy, and discussed with her husband Xie Chongyang who to invite to the Staples.

Chen Guixiang doesn't know much about basketball, although she often watches games.She only watched Xie Kai's game, and only her son was in her eyes. If anyone fouled and knocked down her son, she would curse the player for a long time.She has never been to the Staples Arena, but she has never eaten pork, and she has seen pigs walk. Being able to go to such a high-end arena represents a kind of status, and it is a matter of face in Chinatown.

Last season, the Clippers ranked fourth from the bottom in the Western Conference with a record of 23 wins and 59 losses, and ranked fifth from the bottom in the entire league.

Meeting this opponent, even if it is an away game, the Kings hope to end their away losing streak on them.Really, with this kind of opponent, he would be really embarrassed if he didn't win.

The Clippers are currently 1 win and 6 losses, ranking first in the West. With such a record, it is no wonder that Los Angeles fans have gone to the Lakers.No, most Los Angeles fans have never been to the Clippers.

——After all, if they want records, they have records, and they want superstars, Kobe, what do you have?
On the evening of November 11th, the Kings' away game against the Clippers was held at the Staples Arena in downtown Los Angeles.

In this game, a lot of East Asian faces came to the Staples Arena. Obviously, these people came here for Xie Kai.

In the Staples Arena, even the Clippers game, there will be some entertainment stars on the scene.Los Angeles sits on Hollywood, and there are so many stars here, some of them will go to Staples to watch the game from time to time.

During shooting practice before the game, Xie Kai accidentally saw a few familiar people sitting in the front row, but he couldn’t name them. He guessed that they might be the stars of some movie.

Chen Guixiang and the others came to Staples for the first time, and the place was too big, so they got lost. Fortunately, they finally found their seats under the instructions of the arena staff.

Staples is very big, and Chen Guixiang and the others finally found a place. At this time, the pre-match practice of both sides has come to an end.

"Akai, it's us! We're here!" Chen Guixiang finally saw his son practicing 3-pointers on the court, and shouted hello excitedly.

The scene was quite noisy, and Xie Kai didn't hear his mother calling him.

"Sister-in-law, there are so many people here, Akai can't hear it!" Although Xie Meiya was here for the first time, she had seen the world after all, so she seemed much calmer.

"Meiya, I'm so excited. This place is so big. I'm so happy that my son can play in such a place!" Chen Guixiang almost shed tears.

The game is about to start soon, and ESPN chief commentator Mike Breen and partner Jeff Van Gundy are the ones to explain the game.

Jeff Van Gundy has been a full-time NBA commentator since he was fired by the Rockets last year.

In this game, the starting lineup of the Clippers at home is: center - Chris Kaman, power forward - Marcus Camby, small forward - Al Thornton, shooting guard - Katinomo Bree, point guard -- Baron Davis.

The starting lineup of the Kings in the away game is: center - Brad Miller, power forward - Jason Thompson, small forward - Mitch Moore, shooting guard - John Salmons, point guard - Ben Nou delhi.
