After playing the Thunder team, to the day of the Rockets, the Los Angeles Lakers really rested for a full 8 days.

So much so that Kupchak had to arrange for the team to come to Houston three days early to get used to the atmosphere of the venue while avoiding the fatigue of traveling.

In fact, there is no such thing as an NBA team adapting to the venue, and it is not a football game.

In each of these away games, which year will not come two or three times, or even three or five times?

It's been familiar for a long time.

It's just that if you stay in Los Angeles, the players have to go home every night, and a lot of the players have to sneak out to have fun, which is not so good for concentrating on preparing for the game.

So Kupchak and Byron Scott discussed and flew to Houston on April 28.

The state of Texas, where Houston is located, is located in the southern part of the country.

Above it is Dallas, where there are the Mavericks.

Above Dallas is Oklahoma City, where the Thunder are located.

Houston is the largest city in the Gulf of Mexico and the fourth largest city in the country.

The first nature is New York, then Los Angeles, third is Chicago, and fourth is Houston.

Houston is also the second largest port in the United States after New York, and it has great advantages in oil, aviation, medical, industrial and financial aspects.

The whole thing can be described in one sentence.

Houston is the most prosperous city in the southern part of the country.

But there's one bad thing.

Legend has it that Houston is located in Texas, where the people of Texas are fierce, and at least 5 of the ten people who go on the street are with guys, and it is common to pick up guys if they don't agree with each other.

Thinking about the seven or eight years that Da Yao has been in this city, it is really hard for him.

But the thought that there are still two Huaguo Cities in Houston - that is, Chinatown, makes Shen Huan doubt this rumor.

If it were that dangerous, would the Chinese be willing to gather here in large numbers?

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Shen Huan.

When Shen Huan and the Lakers arrived in Texas, thousands of fans came to the airport to pick them up.

There are more than 2,000 Chinese here, and they are specially here to welcome Shen Huan.

Since Da Yao returned to China, their status in Houston has decreased a lot, and it was not until Shen Huan was born and became the pride of the Chinese people that they raised their eyebrows again.

Among the remaining fans, there are half black buddies and half Mexicans.

Many of them are also Shen Huan's fans, and the rest are die-hard fans of the Lakers' three elders.

Toyota Center has a total of 18,500 seats, but for this year's playoff Final Four, they have temporarily expanded to 28,000 seats, which is even crazier than the Thunder.

Among so many seats, in fact, only one-third of them are Houston Rockets fans, and the rest have been snapped up by Shen Huan fans and Lakers fans all over the world.

And these fans in front of them must not be able to fill these seats.

More fans, or rich stars, will have to wait until the day of the game.

I finally got on the bus under the cover of hundreds of security personnel, but it was only more than 30 kilometers away from the hotel where I stayed, but it took me 3 hours to get there.

Wang Zhen's team, Ji Yinmei's team, and the Lakers' entourage had already finished moving in at this time and came out for a walk.

No way.

There were so many fan cars that they couldn't move for a long time.

Houston police officers arrived very late, stuck in traffic for an hour and arriving late, much to Kupchak's great luck.

Fortunately, it came three days early, and if it had arrived a day earlier, would the players have had to rest after such a toss?

However, the "nightmare" belonging to the Lakers has just begun.

Although it was only 4 o'clock in the afternoon when the Lakers arrived at the hotel, two platforms had already been set up before and after the hotel, and two groups of rock singers had already begun to sing loudly.

The metal-style singing style can clearly reach the room even if it is more than 100 meters apart.

What kind of trick this is, the Lakers know it.

If you want to harass your opponent, this is relatively light.

They immediately filed a complaint, demanding that the hotel immediately remove the singers and not disturb the Lakers' rest.

The hotel is a Hilton Hotel, and the eldest lady of Hilton is a loyal fan of Shen Huan, and of course they will do their best.

But they can only call the police to deal with it, and can't take other methods, what the result is, then you can imagine.

In the past half of the "consultations", these rock singers have died down obediently, but they have not even come down from the stage.

As soon as the police had left, the car had not even driven 100 meters before the music roared again.

Shen Huan was sitting in the café, and when he heard such a voice, he didn't feel funny, "They thought they could disturb us like this?"

"And that's not all!" Kobe Bryant leaned lazily on the sofa to rest, "At night, either fireworks or gongs and drums will always make you sleep badly." ”

"Fortunately, there are no other residents in our hotel, otherwise the police would have come and search for any criminals. Iverson added slowly, sipping his water.

"Why didn't we encounter such a situation last year?" said Shen Huan in surprise.

"That was last year when you didn't come to Houston. Howard laughs, "They've always been so 'hospitable.'" ”

"I see. ”

Shen Huan nodded slightly, but smiled again: "It seems that I have to 'thank' the Houston people for their 'enthusiasm'!"

Hearing Shen Huan's words, Byron Scott, who was not speaking next to him, suddenly relaxed.

If others don't know, doesn't he know?

Shen Huan is not a good-tempered person at all on the court.

A good-natured person can directly knock people into the air, pick them up, and then dismantle the chair and want to fight?

No kidding!

The reason why Shen Huan didn't go crazy later was because there was no second person who wanted to be Ed Davis and Plumlee.

No matter how unruly it is, unless you dare to bring a guy on the field, otherwise one will be counted as one, and you can only be knocked out by Shen Huan with one punch.

Now that Shen Huan is angered by the conspiracy of the Houston Rockets, then he will definitely exert more strength on the court, beat them to the ground, and beat them to the point that they can't be defeated!

In such a situation, even other Lakers players, especially young players, will be disturbed by these small means, and there is no problem.

Shen Huan alone can lead the Lakers to the desired victory!
