Chapter 73 The King of Cars(1/2)

Los Angeles in summer is a paradise for travel, vacation and sportsmen.

If starting from the 1930s, the focus of basketball was in New York, Philadelphia, and Massachusetts in the northeast.

By the 1980s, more and more NBA players began to like to go to the West Coast to spend the hot offseason.

The Lakers Magic brought a headline for all this, this charismatic league superstar has attracted many players to ULCA for training games in the summer to keep fit until the start of the new season.

Gradually this became a routine. Players were unwilling to stay in the cold and narrow northeastern region, and were more willing to come to the Pacific coast with sunshine, beaches, blue skies and white clouds.

When the NBA was suspended in the summer of 2011, top league superstars like LeBron James and Kobe Bryant all came to Los Angeles to participate in the Drew League here, making this amateur league famous.

Every summer, almost 50% of the league's players come to Los Angeles to spend a fulfilling holiday.

Angel City is a sports city with various gymnasiums and fitness centers all over the city.

The gymnasiums of each middle school and university are open to the public during holidays. As long as you make an appointment and pay a rent, you can play here happily.

Players come to Los Angeles to train and never have to worry about the venue.

ulca used to be the favorite place for stars, not only because it is the alma mater of many superstars, but also because their venue facilities are top-notch.

To the north of UCL, crossing Sunset Avenue and Bessa Bay Country Club is a valley area - Bell Air.

The Rock Canyon Reservoir in Los Angeles is located here, surrounded by Los Angeles’ premium residential community.

And in this valley, there is a very special basketball training hall.

The owner of the basketball training hall is an avid Lakers fan who built the venue according to the configuration of Stamps Stadium.

It is decorated with the Los Angeles Lakers floors, logos, and even a fake Lakers Honor Showroom.

It can be said to be a high-quality imitation Stamps Center.

If there are Lakers players or other NBA stars who want to come here to play, the stadium owner will generously use it.

Of course, there is another very special place in this stadium.

That is, it is located on a hill where the phone has no signal.

After coming to the stadium, the players could only concentrate on playing basketball and wanted to make phone calls and play with their mobile phones, but it was not possible.

On July 3, several luxury cars were parked in the square at the entrance of the stadium, and players came here to train.

A white Land Rover parked at the entrance of the square and two black men got out of the car.

One of them is the Washington Wizards' main defender John Wall, and the other is forward Terence Jones, who was just selected by the Houston Rockets this year.

The two were good friends when they were in college. Today they came to Los Angeles to attend a small-scale training camp.

"Bruce, this guy, didn't know if he had arrived. There was no signal on the mountain, so he couldn't make a phone call." Wall complained.

The day before yesterday, Li Liang contacted him on InS and said he wanted to invite him to Los Angeles to attend training camp, along with those alumni from Kentucky.

Wall was already thinking about coming to Los Angeles, and Li Liang's invitation was exactly what he wanted.

But he didn't know where Li Liang got the money to hold the training camp?

When they entered the stadium, the two found that this was a little Stamps.

Wall went to Stamps to play, and he knew the structure, floor, and seats of Stamps Arena.

Although this stadium is much smaller, the details are perfectly restored, and the seats on the sidelines are of the same model.

The cost of renting such a stadium is definitely not small for one day.

Terence Jones said: "I heard that Bruce's family is very rich, and his family seems to sell tanks in China."

Wall said: "Selling tanks? Then his family is an arms dealer? No wonder, then he doesn't need to enter the NBA."

Li Liang's family clearly sells agricultural machinery, but he hides it. Except for a few people, everyone else doesn't know what's going on.

Terence Jones, who doesn't have a lot of brains, listened to rumors that Li Liang's family sells tanks.

He didn't know that China did not have private arms dealers. Even if there were smuggling, they wouldn't smuggle tanks!

There are already several players in the stadium warming up.

Wall stepped forward and greeted: "Hey, boogie!"

Wall was calling out his former partner DeMarcus Cousins.

Others include Brandon Knight, Lamb, Davis, Maikegee and others.

They all wore Kentucky uniforms, which was an absolute Kentucky small gathering.

After receiving Li Liang's invitation, they suspended their vacations and ran to Los Angeles.

Taking such an opportunity to train hard is indeed a good choice.

Like Anthony Davis, Li Liang made this kid come in just a few words.

I said that when I train in Los Angeles, I can see many Hollywood stars, and I can sign and take photos together.

I only found out when I arrived at the training ground that there was a Hollywood star with a hammer here, and there was no signal.

Everyone waited for about half an hour, and almost everyone came at 10 o'clock in the morning.

Since Calipari came to Kentucky in 2009, a group of star players he trained gathered on this nameless hill in Los Angeles.

And the person who summoned them, the water dispenser in Kentucky, has not yet appeared.

Because the phone has no signal, Wall and others cannot contact him.

Just as everyone was cursing Li Liang behind his back, a fat man appeared in the stadium and said that Li Liang was coming soon.

It was Wei Dazhi. He followed Li Liang today and said, "Everyone, wait a moment, Bruce Li was pulled together to train together in the morning. It's over soon. They will come together."

Everyone looked at each other.

Why, Kobe is coming too?

Is this boy Bruce Lee a soccer?

Will you get involved with the Lakers' star so soon?

The two of them train together in the morning and have to come together?

Everyone became excited when they thought Kobe was coming to participate in training.

You should know that many superstar training methods are unique and can be seen in secret.

When Kobe, James, Wade and others are training in the summer, they keep it confidential and irrelevant people cannot watch and shoot.

Earlier, the God of Basketball Michael Jordan, the "breakfast plan" he implemented during the two consecutive championships in the first and last days. The specific training methods and contents are still a secret.

It will definitely be rewarding to be able to train with a superstar like Kobe and get a glimpse of everyone's skills.

Everyone was even more looking forward to this small training camp.

Five minutes later, Li Liang ran in from the door panting.

Seeing the familiar faces on the court, Li Liang waved to everyone and ran into the locker room behind.

Kobe followed closely behind, wearing a black T-shirt and purple Lakers sweatpants.

He was steaming on his face. It seemed that he had just finished exercising. When he saw the Kentucky generals, he stepped forward to say hello.

Kobe rarely chatted with young people on the court.

As he grew older, his sharp side gradually decreased.

Leng Li stayed on the field, but there were many approachable people off the field.

He began to guide the young people in the alliance as his predecessors.

"Is Bruce Lee your classmate? This kid is good, my friend. He told me the day before yesterday that he wanted to set up a training camp for Kentucky players and ask me for help. I chose this place, which is not bad."

Kobe said, picking up the ball and completing a mid-range shot, the ball was hollowed into the net.

Everyone was a little surprised. Why did Bruce Lee become Kobe's friend?

It turns out that he still has this relationship, and this kid is indeed a socialite.

In fact, this is the role of the scented aroma.

During the trial, Kobe had just lost the playoffs and was in a dull mood.

Even if his father comes, Kobe won't give him a good face, let alone Li Liang.

When time slowly erases the frustration caused by failure, the self-cooked fragrance will work.

In order to revenge Li Liang's revenge for dunking on his head, Kobe told West to let him take some time and arrange for Li Liang to train with him.

Of course, Kobe cannot tell Li Liang directly about this kind of thing, otherwise he will lose more.

West understood Kobe's thoughts, and Li Liang came to the door and said he wanted to have a training camp.

Well, add Kobe, the one who doesn't know how to play.

Kobe asked Li Liang out early today and went to the training hall for aerobic training.

Li Liang did not refuse and followed Kobe to run around the Stone Canyon Reservoir.

As a result, I ran for almost two hours!
