Add One, I Don’t Know How To Fight
Chapter 146 145: Met a friend (Thanks to the leader of JackyGI!)
"Now, we invite Li Ang to come up and say a few words to everyone!"
As the host shouted, there was overwhelming applause.
"Oh, what did I say? I can't do it. I can't do it."
Li Ang kept waving his hands, but he was still pulled up by Yao Ming and Su Su.
There was no other way, everyone in the hall was staring at him, so Li Ang had no choice but to bite the bullet.
After returning from Sydney, Li Ang wanted to go directly to Toronto to report.
But the Basketball Association had to let Li Ang attend this year's celebration banquet.
Chinese basketball has achieved a historic breakthrough in international competitions, and this celebration banquet must not be missing.
Wang Zhizhi couldn't wait to go to Dallas to report, but he was asked to change his contract directly.
Thinking that the basketball association would not embarrass him about the matter of mummifying Hale, Li Ang reluctantly agreed to participate.
I originally thought that this celebration banquet would just be a few tables, the brothers would have a hearty meal, have a few drinks of Maotai, and be done with it.
Who knew the scale of this formation was beyond Li Ang's imagination.
The members of the men's basketball team are only a small number of people. At today's celebration banquet, various leaders from this game and that game were also invited.
The leaders spoke in turn, making Li Ang look at the big peach on the table and drool.
After finally finishing speaking, he was suddenly asked to speak again.
I just want to eat a big peach. What crime am I guilty of!
Li Ang stood on the podium, and the applause lasted for a long time.
Looking at the crowd below, Li Ang felt troubled.
What do you think I said? There’s really nothing to say.
Our old Li is stupid and only knows how to hit people!
If this was a celebration banquet for the Sanda team, then Li Ang would also be able to talk about his experience with the flying knee kill.
But all of us here are decent people, so I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to talk about this.
Seeing that Li Ang really didn't know what to say, the host tried to help Li Ang out, so he raised a topic: "Then, please tell the story of playing against the Australian team."
There was another burst of applause below. Although the game against Australia ended in an accident, it was an unavoidable game in the history of Chinese basketball.
Li Ang thought, what is the story of Australia? I remember it was just elbow, elbow, elbow, and there was nothing to talk about.
But everyone came up, and they started to grunt and talk.
So, Li Ang picked up the microphone:
"This time we play against Australia, it will be quite difficult.
However, we closely follow the leadership of the head coach, unite our teammates, persevere and never give up.
Finally won the game.
To be honest, there was a moment in that game when we really felt like we couldn’t hold on any longer.
Just because you have worked so hard, your physical fitness has reached its lowest point, you know.
But at that time, I looked down at the word "China" on my jersey, and I suddenly found my direction and knew what I was fighting for.
So, I just...”
After realizing something was wrong, Li Ang's voice stopped abruptly. Fortunately, no one interrupted him at the scene, so Li Ang quickly changed his words.
"So I was full of strength at that time and couldn't care about so much. I just thought about winning and I didn't feel tired at all."
After he finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out.
Li Ang also let out a sigh of relief, he finally got through it.
After that, Liu Yudong, as the team leader, also went up to give a speech.
Li Ang didn't remember anything else, but he remembered what he said: "I'm a party member, so I'll go first!"
Well, Li Ang testified that he didn't brag.
He goes deep into the masses, comes from the masses, and goes to the masses.
After the boring and long speech, the celebration party finally officially started.
After a few minutes of eating, Daba couldn't help it any longer. He filled the glass with wine and then raised his glass: "Come on, let's have a go, brothers!"
After drinking for three rounds, Li Ang turned around and saw that Xiao Yao was already holding his head on his hands, his eyes were blurred and his face was flushed.
"What's wrong with you? You've only had a few drinks and you're not feeling good anymore?"
"Who said I can't do it? Come on, let's drink!" Xiao Yao stood up again and raised his glass.
After a few more rounds, Xiao Yao started to get excited and put his arms around Li Ang's shoulders.
"Brother Li, let me tell you. From now on in Shanghai, if you come to Shanghai, I will burp. I don't care. No matter how many days or how long you stay. Just ask, your Brother Yao, I will arrange it, arrange it!"
"Yao, you drank too much. You drank too much."
"Tsk, Brother Li, you are looking down on your brother when you say that.
This is who I am, if you are good to me, I will be good to you! You came all the way over there to get me that little European and American video. Do you think I can forget this thing? "
Good guy, as soon as Yao Ming said these words, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Li Ang was really afraid that someone else would suddenly say: "Brother Li, I have a friend."
Li Ang was speechless. He really wanted to shout: "Yao, go and sit at the table with the children!"
Yao Ming was almost done, and Battelle and Liu Yudong immediately started to toast one by one with bottles in hand.
One table of people couldn't satisfy them at all.
Li Ang looked at Hu Weidong again at this time, and saw that Lao Hu was wearing glasses and holding vegetables gracefully.
Li Ang thought that this old Hu might not like drinking.
After taking a few bites, Lao Hu wiped his mouth gracefully, took off his glasses, then opened the first button of his shirt, and drank three drinks in a row.
"Phew~ Warm-up is over!"
Li Ang:.
Every one of them is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
Li Ang swallowed, forget it, Xiao Yao and I should go to the children's table, this table is too bloody.
On the afternoon of the second day after the celebration banquet, Li Ang and Wang Zhizhi went to the airport together, said goodbye to each other, and began their journey to pursue each other's dreams.
Speaking of which, Wang Zhizhi's time is tighter than Li Ang's.
After all, Li Ang's position with the Raptors is stable, but it's generally different. This is his first serious trip to the NBA, but there's not even a month until the start of the regular season.
During this period, he must adapt to the rhythm of the NBA and strive to find his place in the team.
Li Ang thought that when he arrived in Toronto, he could have a good night's rest.
After getting off the plane, a stretched limousine was waiting for Li Ang.
A few days ago, Oakley said that he would come to pick up Li Ang and give his disciple a cleansing. As expected of Lao Jianghu, he is just on time.
As a result, everyone was stunned the moment Li Ang opened the door and sat in.
This is not a ride to kindergarten!
"Li, welcome back hahahaha! Did you know? Now you are an Olympic legend! Girls, what are you waiting for? Enjoy the peaches and wine!"
The stretch limousine was filled with alcohol and loud music.
The most important thing is that besides Oakley, there are also girls!
Is this the smell of decadent capitalism? ?
Li Ang really admires him. The master is really strong and capable, and he is worthy of being a VIP player of the Gold Club.
As soon as Li Ang got in the car, several girls clamped Li Ang's arms with balls and toasted him.
Oakley proposed to take Leon to a nightclub to have a night of fun, as a welcome home.
But Li Ang still declined on the grounds that he was too tired, and when he got home, he pulled his arms away from the two pairs of balls.
"You take your time and play with it. I'm old enough and I can't bear it."
Watching Oakley's men leave in the car, Li Ang let out a big sigh of relief.
Those fake balls pinched Li Ang's arms!
Forget about match-fixing, the main reason is that these girls have a strong nightclub flavor, and Li Ang is really not interested in this kind of nightclub coffee.
Those who are capable should work harder. Master, since you are so capable, you will have to suffer alone tonight.
Early the next morning, Li Ang couldn't wait to go to the training camp.
In fact, Li Ang didn't need to go so early.
Because the Olympics were just over, the Raptors deliberately gave Carter and Leon a few extra days off.
But because time was tight, Li Ang decided to report to the training camp as early as possible.
This year, most of the people on the training field are familiar faces, except for the sleepy guy.
The Raptors had almost no reinforcements, except to introduce Maurice Peterson through the draft, and then signed Mark Jackson from the free agent market.
Peterson is an excellent 3D small forward. In the original history, when Bosh led the Raptors, he was once Bosh's most effective assistant. At his peak, he averaged 16.8 points per game and a 39.5% three-point shooting percentage.
It is indeed a good addition to the team's immediate combat capabilities.
Not to mention Mark Jackson, another weird defender who is more stable in post-up play than shooting.
This summer, the league still introduced the five-second rule as it did in history.
In many people's minds, this rule is used to restrict Barkley.
But actually not quite.
Because this rule was passed, Mark Jackson also contributed a lot.
In last season's finals, the Pacers had a tactic, which was to open up the space for Mark Jackson to play from the midfield line!
It's absolutely heartbreaking.
After all, most short point guards can't withstand the punch of Mark Jackson's big butt.
It was the Trail Blazers who played the Finals with the Pacers last season, but in the original history it was the Lakers.
At that time, Kobe was so excited by Mark Jackson's big ass.
There is actually nothing wrong with this way of playing, but one thing is that it is not conducive to viewing.
Who the hell wants to watch two defenders rub each other for more than ten seconds in one round?
And if everyone imitates Mark Jackson in the future, why don’t they watch this game?
Therefore, Boss Si immediately decided to establish a five-second rule for back-hitting.
A month ago, after learning that Mark Jackson had actually transferred to the Raptors, Stern just felt lucky.
Fortunately, I had the foresight and introduced this rule in time!
Otherwise, if Mark Jackson handed over those crooked butt secrets to Li Ang, what would be the point?
Can we still watch the Raptors games in the future?
I'm afraid the Raptors only have two tactics: Li Ang plays from the back from the three-point line and Mark Jackson plays from the back from the three-point line.
I'm afraid I spent half the game watching them piggyback.
It's also a pity for Li Ang. As a blue-collar player last season, he didn't have many opportunities to play in post-ups throughout the season.
This season, the status has finally been improved, and the league has been playing back-to-back for five seconds.
It is estimated that in five years' time, people will say that the behind-the-back rule is used to restrict Li Ang.
Although Mark Jackson is a bit weird, his business ability is still strong.
At least he can organize properly. The Raptors finally have a point guard instead of a dribbling guard.
Li Ang greeted everyone, and everyone came up to ask Li Ang about various things about the Olympics.
"Li, tell the truth, how many Australian girls did you get during the Olympics? Did you go crazy during those days when your girlfriend was not around?"
"I heard that the Olympic Village provides unlimited sports protective equipment. Is this true?"
Li Ang is convinced. In your eyes, am I that kind of person?
Finally, the team's new coach Lenny Wilkens walked up to Li Ang with a smile and shook hands with him.
"Li, the team needs you very much in the new season. I know that you young people have a good relationship with Butch.
But what I want to say is that work is work and life is life. I also respect your Uncle Butch, but everything has to move forward.
Believe me, you will also have a stable position and playing time under me.
After all, I also want to see how you fly over other people's heads and dunk hahahaha. "
As expected of a veteran, he first stabilizes the players' emotions, draws closer to them, and gains their trust.
Li Ang looked at the fat and short old man and nodded.
In the new season, these are probably the changes for the Raptors. Not to say that it hasn’t changed at all, but it has definitely changed very little.
Without McGrady, Leon and Carter want to do better than last season. To put it bluntly, they have to rely on themselves.
Because the Olympic Games are over, all major sports media have turned their attention to the NBA again.
The latest strength ranking list for the new season has also been officially released.
Last season's champion Trail Blazers ranked first, the Los Angeles Lakers second, the Spurs third, and the Magic fourth.
And Li Ang didn't find the Raptors until the 10th place.
Even the 76ers are ranked higher than the Raptors.
“Although last season they were a surprise and made it to the Eastern Conference semifinals and caused a lot of trouble for the Miamians.
But Tracy's departure will definitely greatly reduce the strength of the Raptors.
Li Ang's progress is worth looking forward to, but no matter how great the progress is, he cannot be allowed to fill the vacancy left by Tracy. "
In the end, ESPN predicted the Raptors to be in the first round of the playoffs.
There is the second round but not the first round, which sounds quite similar.
Carter has stopped doing music recently and is too lazy to talk about love.
I sweat every day with Li Ang in the training ground.
Carter rookie: First round exit? Is this looking down on my offense or looking down on Li Ang's ass?
Speaking of which, Li Ang also felt that this prediction was quite outrageous.
Although Carter only has one second team and one third team, when it comes to the playoffs, Maizi is the first-round madman.
Of course, Li Ang was not interested in the prediction at all.
Ever since he got acquainted with Mark Jackson, Li Ang was obsessed with studying the usage of big butt every day and couldn't extricate himself.
Li Ang never imagined that he actually learned low-post moves from a point guard.
Today I have two updates of 10,700 words. It has been almost 10 days this month. Lao Ge insists on updating 10,700 words every day, which makes his conscience explode. Coding is not easy, please vote!
