Chapter 99 Los Angeles Lakers
From Kobe, Jiangbei understood that no matter which team he chooses, as long as he stays true to his original intention, it doesn't mean that he can go to whichever team is good. In Kobe's heart, even if he joins a weak team, he will lead him into a dynasty.As long as the team doesn't betray me, I will never betray the team first.

The next morning, Jiang Bei got up early. After breakfast, Jiang Bei was ready to go to the Staples Center to participate in the trial training. Before leaving, Jiang Bei called the contact person left on the invitation letter to confirm the time, and then officially set off for the Staples Center.

Because the Central Interstate Hotel is only about 1 kilometer away from the Staples Center, Jiang Bei chose to walk there, and enjoy the street culture of Los Angeles by the way.

Los Angeles can be regarded as the cradle of street culture and a paradise for street culture lovers.As long as you are in Los Angeles, you can find the shadow of street culture in the streets and alleys!Whether you like hip-hop, graffiti, or rap, this city is worth exploring.

Today, there are still a large number of graffiti portraits of Kobe on the streets of Los Angeles. Kobe has a special meaning for the city of Los Angeles. In Los Angeles, Kobe is regarded as a god by many people.People say: "Kobe is the prince of Los Angeles and a part of Los Angeles forever." As a star, people in a city can remember and miss him.

Jiang Bei strolled on the streets of Los Angeles, feeling the strong basketball atmosphere here. Maybe Kobe once walked this road and went to the arena to train. All of this gave Jiang Bei a special feeling.

Jiang Bei walked very slowly. It took about 10 minutes for Jiang Bei to reach the gate of the Staples Center.There are a total of 12 entrances to the Staples Center. A huge "Let's go, Lakers!" banner is hung at each entrance of the arena. The electronic display boards are constantly flipping the history of the Lakers winning championships and entering the finals. The glorious history, as well as the introduction of current Lakers stars.There are five statues about the Los Angeles Lakers outside the arena, namely Magic Johnson, Jerry West, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, legendary commentator Zeke Hearn and Shaquille O'Neal.

Jiang Bei slowly walked into the arena. The Lakers didn't have a game today, and the players were training. The current record of the Lakers is No.1. The Lakers have maintained a good lineup this season, and they hope to compete for the championship again.

At this time, someone from the Lakers players who was training spotted Jiang Bei and shouted, "Hey! Boy, there is no game here today, you should come back another day!"

Jiang Bei walked slowly to the edge of the court and said, "I was invited to participate in the trial training?"

“试训？你打什么位置啊？1号位吗？看看你的身体能不能顶住我的冲击啊！”说话的是塔伦-霍顿-塔克，毕业于爱荷华州立大学，2018-19赛季NCAA作为爱荷华州大球员出场35次，场均出战27.2分钟，能够贡献11.8分4.9篮板2.3助攻1.3抢断0.7盖帽。在2019年NBA选秀中，塔伦·霍顿-塔克于次轮第46位被洛杉矶湖人队选中。

Taron Horton-Tucker, who had just entered the NBA, followed the Lakers to the conference finals, setting a new historical record. At the age of 19, he became the youngest player in NBA history to reach the conference finals.Immediately afterwards, the Lakers won the championship this season, and Taron Horton Tucker became the second youngest NBA player in history to win the championship.

Talen Horton-Tucker, who won the championship, feels very good recently, especially as a starter in the preseason and scored very good results, so he is a little bit flustered.

But according to Jiangbei's understanding, Talen Horton-Tucker has a comprehensive offense, and the catch and jump shot is his main offensive weapon, averaging 1.111 points per time.Breaking through the basket is also handy, but the finishing scoring ability is average.In terms of defense, he has a good height and wingspan, and the anti-pass prediction is good, but the basic defensive skills are not solid, and the defensive performance is not stable enough.

Jiangbei really doesn't care about him. A player who can't defend well is useless in front of Jiangbei. If he only fights offensively, Jiangbei is not afraid of any substitute in the NBA. It's hard to say that he will start. After all, there are so many stars.

Jiang Bei shrugged his shoulders without gaining anything, looking indifferent, and made Talen Horton Tucker very angry. He wanted to rush up to fight Jiang Bei, but he was stopped by James, because after all, he didn't know whether Jiang Bei was here for a trial training. In case of a fight, it would easily turn into a diplomatic dispute, so James whispered in Talen Horton Tucker's ear: "Fighting is an unwise choice. What if he knows Chinese Kung Fu! You may not be able to beat it!"

Taron Horton-Tucker calmed down after hearing what James said, but unwilling to lose face, he emphasized: "I'm not afraid of him. Seeing how weak he is, I'm afraid that he will break it. If the coach really came for a trial training, it will be troublesome!"

On the other side, Quinn Cook did not think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and he made up his sword and said: "I think you are just scared, you must know that the most powerful Chinese kung fu is the kind of thin-looking people, like Bruce Lee!"

Talen Horton Tucker over there heard what Quinn Cook said, and immediately became anxious. James quickly stopped him and signaled Quinn Cook to stop talking nonsense. Quinn Cook wanted to say something to stimulate Talen Horton Tucker. The two of them usually love to compete with each other, but at this time the head coach of the Lakers came.

The current head coach of the Lakers is Frank Vogel. Frank Vogel has worked as an assistant coach for many teams. He went from an unknown college student to an NBA assistant coach, and then became a "substitute coach" that even other teams wanted to poach. It can be said that he has paid a lot.

Frank Vogel started as director of video coordination for Boston Celtics head coach Rick Pitino before being promoted to assistant coach five years later.He even worked as a scout for the Lakers for a while, and then became the acting head coach of the Pacers. At the end of the regular season, he scored 20 wins and 18 losses, leading the Pacers back to the playoffs.

In 14, he was elected as the head coach of the Eastern All-Star team. He won the honor of the best coach of the month in the Eastern Conference twice in the 15-16 season. After leaving the Pacers, he coached the Orlando Magic. In 19, he officially signed a contract with the Lakers.
