The world's best combo guard

Chapter 43 [Two months later]

"Finally there is news about Li Hao again...

As the new season approaches, players from various teams in the league have begun to return and assemble one after another, especially for those teams that want to make a difference in the new season, their player assembly date should be earlier, such as in This past summer, the Los Angeles Lakers, who gambled against the sky and created the world-renowned "Big Four", have completed their assembly with 20 days before the start of the preseason, but we did not watch them in the training hall. In the OK group, Karl Malone was not seen. Only Gary Payton showed up in the training hall of the Big Four. Of course, for us, seeing Li Hao in the training hall may be the most exciting thing.

Li Hao’s last public appearance was in BJ in early July, when he was just drafted by the Lakers. At one of BJ’s commercial activities, we chatted for a while. To be honest, if it wasn’t for the fact that I knew Li Hao very well For a long time, maybe when I saw him in the Lakers training hall this morning, I would not recognize him. Compared with more than two months ago, Li Hao has changed a lot now. I mean his size, he Li Hao's figure looks very strong, his arms are much thicker, and his body muscles are obvious. Facing my surprised expression, Li Hao told me heartily that this is the result of his hard training for more than two months. I was so shocked... ...

According to official news from the Lakers, this afternoon the team will hold a press conference for players like Li Hao who joined the team during the offseason. Li Hao will bring his jersey number to meet you at the press conference this afternoon, reported by Duan Feng, special correspondent of CCTV Sports in Los Angeles News Center”

Los Angeles, USA, the Toyota Center, the Lakers training facility, is crowded with people and bustling today, because the training facility, which has been relatively quiet for a long time, has gradually welcomed back all the staff and the arena since today One of them, a Lakers player.

…………

As early as more than two months ago, Li Hao came to the Lakers training hall for training. The Lakers physical coach Jesse Memory and nutritionist Kyle Landerson helped him, especially Jesse Memory. , specially formulated a set of physical training plan for Li Hao, mainly aimed at Li Hao's two aspects: the first is to increase muscle, and the second is to strengthen the core strength.

Today is the last day of Li Hao's special physical training in Memori. Compared with the beginning two months ago, Li Hao's training volume is now greater. He stays in the training room all morning and performs every training movement. Go through it again.

Afterwards, sweating profusely, he saw Duan Feng, the CCTV sports correspondent whom he had made an appointment with earlier. He offered Duan Feng a glass of milk, and then had a brief chat. Duan Feng said that after the press conference in the afternoon, he would Conducting a special interview for himself, a live interview with many domestic basketball fans, Li Hao nodded in agreement.

After that, he saw Brian Cook in the training hall, hugged Derek Fisher, and recognized him, as well as Devin George, Rick Fox and others, all of whom also greeted each other.

What's more interesting is that the way Li Hao and Gary Payton greet each other seems a little special.

Li Hao arrived at the parking lot at 400 o'clock in the morning. To his surprise, he just parked the car, and the parking space next to him quickly drove into a newest Mercedes-Benz S[-] that was exactly the same as the one he drove.

This surprised Li Hao. When he got out of the car and looked at the car beside him in surprise, the owner of the car also got out of the car at this time. Like Li Hao, he also looked very surprised.

Li Hao felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Dude, you like S400 too?"

"Of course, I feel that this car is very good to drive, especially its interior space, which is very comfortable"

""Yes!You're right""

When the two of them finally walked into the Toyota Center at the same time, Li Hao realized that the person in front of him was Gary Payton, and he had watched this guy's game.

"You mean you are the Chinese guard that the Lakers selected in the draft?"

"Damn, seeing your color and height. Maybe I should have thought of that"

The two looked at each other and laughed loudly.

After one morning, Li Hao had a lot of feelings for Gary Payton. Maybe now he can finally understand why this guy in front of him can cause so much trouble for Michael Jordan, and finally understand why this guy is the only one in NBA history so far. From point guard to best defensive player.

Because this guy is so crazy, the 35-year-old came to the training hall to train early in the morning the day after he decided to join the Lakers, and the intensity was unbelievable.

Li Hao realized that compared with these famous superstars, he might still have a long way to go.

Li Hao didn't see Kobe in the training hall. I heard that the guy is still in trouble with the rape lawsuit. Every day, the family-court seems to be two points and one line. It is estimated that the preseason may not be able to solve this problem. Trouble, as for Shaquille O'Neal and Karl Malone, for some reason, they are also missing.

In addition, Li Hao also met the team's head coach, Phil Jackson, who decided his fate in the new season to a certain extent.

Phil Jackson seemed to be in a good mood. As the head coach, he took the initiative to find Li Hao. He affirmed Memori's efforts for such a long time, and he also affirmed the results of Li Hao's physical training.

From this, Li Hao realized that Jesse Memorie and Kyle Landerson had received orders from Phil Jackson to help him.

It's just that Li Hao is a little strange. Before that, he had never met Phil Jackson. Why does this guy value him so much.

"Li, you will be the first Chinese player I coach. To be honest, I like this challenge and look forward to our cooperation." Phil Jackson patted Li Hao on the back, turned and left, which made Li Hao a little confused mind.

Of course, he doesn't feel that Phil Jackson has trusted him just like that, maybe this is his usual style of dealing with rookies.

At noon today, Li Hao didn't stay in the training hall. He planned to go back and get ready, at least change into a more handsome outfit. After all, he is also one of the protagonists in the press conference that will be held this afternoon.

Forget it, don't wear formal clothes, or wear casual clothes to attend the press conference, or the shoes won't match well, Li Hao thought about it, he wants to be a spokesman for his conscience, from now on, he has to shine for Li-Ning Sports fever.

Thinking about Li-Ning Sports, he has spent a lot of money on him, 5 million U.S. dollars in 5000 years, an average of 1000 million U.S. dollars a year, plus a series of bonus clauses. According to Yao Zhijun, the sneaker contract that Li-Ning Sports gave him , Even in the NBA where big contracts are flying all over the sky, it is enough to rank high, so Li Hao signed this contract extension with Li Ning in great pain some time ago.
