On the morning of July 12, Li Liang woke up from his sleep.

He breathed a sigh of relief and the task last night was successfully completed.

He replaced Havrichek again in a Boston Celtics game against the Philadelphia 76ers in 1966, got three steals and helped the team defeat his opponent.

1966 was the year when Havrichek began to become an All-Star and the last year for the Celtics to win eight consecutive championships.

Li Liang is already familiar with the lineup and playing style of the Celtics in the 1960s.

His [stealing] ability value successfully reached 40 points, and his basic defensive ability on the outside reached 66 points.

Compared with the previous few match tasks, Li Liang no longer needs to use some opportunistic methods, but uses his performance on the field to achieve his goals.

First of all, the NBA level in the 1960s was not high, the speed was slow, and the confrontation was poor, and the team's technical and tactical level was not comparable to that of now.

If you play the mission matches in the 1990s and early 21st century, it won't be that easy.

Secondly, Li Liang's strength has really improved.

Not only has the value increased, but his confidence, experience, and mind are growing rapidly.

Although he had not lost training in Kentucky for several years, his practical experience was still relatively lacking.

Several tasks in the system have filled this gap well.

He still plays in a real NBA game. The feeling of being on the spot and experience of handling balls cannot be obtained through training.

Li Liang was in a good mood and got up and cleaned up.

As soon as I opened the door, I found that Zhu Shu had already prepared breakfast in the kitchen.

There were also luggage at the door. Today he was going to Las Vegas with Wei Dazhi to represent the Lakers in the summer league.

Zhu Shu has arranged everything well.

This agent is really perfect.

If it is another agent and other players under him, he will definitely not be able to control Li Liang now.

As for making breakfast, packing your luggage, arranging your itineraries, and booking air tickets, you can't even think about it.

Hiring an agent is equivalent to finding another living assistant!

Kill two birds with one stone!

Li Liang felt embarrassed to think about it, and he spent one portion of money to get two portions of work.

As a reward, he booked Zhu Shu a PS4 and an LCD TV with a large screen.

The goods have not arrived yet, so it is estimated that Zhu Shu will receive them when he is playing in Vegas.

Girls who love to play games are indeed good, after all, game consoles are cheaper than luxury goods.

Moreover, she can only use luxury goods by herself, and the game console can be played with two people together.

Halfway through breakfast, Wei Dazhi rushed out of the room and shouted: "Nash is here! Nash is here! Nash is here! Nash! Nash!"

Li Liang said: "What Nash is coming? What nerves are you getting?"

Wei Dazhi said: "Look at the news! Last night, Nash was traded to the Lakers! It was officially announced this morning!"

When Li Liang heard this, he quickly turned on his phone and saw that it was full of news about the Lakers and the Suns' transactions.

The Lakers exchanged four draft picks from the Suns for two-time MVP winner Steve Nash.

After missing Chris Paul, the Lakers finally welcomed a super point guard.

Although Nash is 38 years old, he led the Suns to the Western Conference Finals two years ago and fought with the Lakers for six games.

This deal has put NBA media in a storm, especially in the Los Angeles sports world.

In comparison, there is no relevant report on the news that the Lakers went to the Summer League today except for a text message.

Nash is a player Li Liang likes very much. When he thought of playing with him, he felt good.

Li Liang, who had breakfast, said goodbye to Zhu Shu and took a bus with Wei Dazhi to Los Angeles International Airport.

The Lakers Summer League team will gather here and fly to Vegas to start the Summer League.

There are 11 players in the whole team, including Robert Thackerey and Dalius Morris.

The others were some undrafted and marginal players who were recruited by the Lakers and were used as cannon fodder in the summer league.

This is the typical pyramid industry like professional sports. The most dazzling top is supported by many unknown eliminators.

After Li Liang arrived at the airport, he met with the team.

Looking at these strange faces and names, I thought to myself that everyone may be cannon fodder and would not have any status left in the long and glorious history of the NBA.

However, being with cannon fodder does not affect Li Liang's mood. On the contrary, because everyone is transparent and gets along very naturally.

Robert Thackeray was as cheerful as ever, and he would respond positively no matter what others said.

A player named Christian Ironga, who was the first round pick in 2009 and was selected by the Cavaliers.

This guy is pretty lucky. He has never played in the NCAA and played in the Spanish League Two in his early years.

Later, the Cleveland Cavaliers somehow discovered him from the Spanish Second Division and chose him in the first round!

He stayed in Spain for a year. After the United States played the summer league for 10 years, the Cavaliers gave him a four-year, five million contract.

LeBron James just decided to go to the Miami Heat that summer, which may have been a remedy made by the crazy Cavaliers management.

Their talent mining ability is truly unpredictable.

Anyway, the lucky Ainga went to Spain from Congo and inexplicably went to the United States, getting a million-dollar contract.

After the Cavaliers traded Iron to the Lakers last summer, and replaced Luke Walton.

And Ironga's level is not available at the Lakers.

The contract expired this summer and I signed a short contract to play the summer league for the Lakers.

In short, this guy is a lucky boy. He loves to laugh very much. After all, those who love to laugh will not have too bad luck.

Think about it, you are an African, who played well in the Spanish League Two, but suddenly you were selected by the NBA in the first round and got a contract of 5 million. You don’t have to play on the court, so how can you not be happy every day?

Li Liang was very good at chatting with this African. Ainga said that he had a younger brother who used to study in Guangzhou, China and loved playing basketball.

Li Liang didn't expect that he would have a lot of relationship with China, and the two had more common topics.

Everyone was very happy to talk along the way, and in the afternoon they arrived in the legendary Las Vegas.

Casinos in the United States, entertainment paradise in the desert.

This time, Mike Brown led the team in the Lakers Summer League, and Brown was very relaxed to the players.

After arriving at the hotel, he announced his respective activities, and went to COX Stadium to practice football tomorrow morning and started the game in the afternoon.

Anyway, they are all a group of marginal people, and the summer league is more like a vacation and a party opportunity for the coach.

The players left happily when they heard the news and went out to play in groups of three or three.

Where is Las Vegas?

In addition to the casino, there are all kinds of entertainment facilities.

Anyway, if you want to fall here, you will provide you with eighteen levels of hell.

As a young man, Li Liang certainly loves to play, but this time he held back.

Faced with the invitation from Thackeray, Ainga and others, Li Liang refused and decided to practice football.

Seeing that Li Liang did not go out, Mike Brown asked him what was going on. Li Liang asked him if there was any place to play basketball.

Brown looked at Li Liang. Of course, he had a deep impression of Li Liang. The call at the press conference showed that this young man was not simple.

However, Brown, a young man who is not simple, has seen many people, and everything depends on his performance on the field.

Everyone else went to play, and he actually wanted to play basketball training?

Well... he must be a fool.

That's what Brown thought in his heart.

He thinks that if you, a second-round pick, don’t take this opportunity to have fun, can you become a star when practicing football?

But he still said: "You can go to COX Stadium, which is open today. You can get the Lakers player's identity card and you can go in."

So Li Liang put his luggage and set off for COX Stadium.

Mike Brown shook his head, thinking that no matter how hard you practice, it will be difficult to stand out because this is the Lakers.

Thinking of this, Brown sighed to himself. How long can he stay in Los Angeles?

Don't want to go out and play. Brown decided to relax and don't think about that troublesome thing.

No wonder Mike Brown could understand Li Liang's heart at this moment. Basketball is the greatest fun for him.

Because he is growing rapidly, he is growing happily every day.

And Mike Brown's growth has stagnated with the departure of that man.

Apart from changing glasses, his life has not yet found a new growth point.

Now the Lakers have another Nash, and people's expectations for the Lakers have been further increased.

Can Mike Brown still do his job well and meet people's expectations?
Chapter completed!
