Chapter 357: Future Teammates

Old Bass chatted to the end, and also gave Sun Hao a diamond membership card of the largest nightclub "playhouse" in Los Angeles.

This is not a test of Sun Hao or anything, but a typical Los Angeles characteristic.

In this drunken city of Sex and the City, it's unusual not to go to a nightclub.

This is also the reason why Kupchak previously felt that Sun Hao was so close to the fans would seem different.

Of course, this is one of the reasons why Bryant's "Los Angeles at 4 a.m." will be heavily promoted.

Sun Hao did not refuse Old Bass's kindness.

Whether to go or not is his own business, but whether to take it or not is a matter of whether it is polite or not.

After the meeting with Kupchak, the Lakers' first day of hospitality will be over.

After receiving this kind of standard, Sun Hao felt refreshed.

But Los Angeles doesn't just have the Lakers, it's also Scarlett.

After Sun Hao left the United States, he went to Athens to play in the Olympics, and returned to China to accompany his parents, even if he didn't see Scarlett for almost a month.

If Sun Hao was traded to the Lakers, Scarlett is the happiest, and he finally doesn't have to run to Dallas all day.

After a long absence, he was newlywed, and he was in high spirits, but after 30,000 words that the two people could not describe, they accidentally ...... I put the bed all over the place.

The two of them stood there laughing.

Sun Hao suddenly remembered a news he had heard before, saying that one of the most bizarre injuries in the NBA was that Perkins collapsed the bed when he was sleeping and injured his foot.

So they should be glad they weren't hurt now?

The bed was couched, and the two of them went to the sofa in the living room to rest, discussing how to buy a new bed.

"Tomorrow we'll go to Beverly Hills and look at the house."

Sun Hao suddenly spoke.

When he and Yi Jianlian went to Hollywood, the two had an agreement to buy a house in Beverly Hills.

It's one of the most extravagant and wealthy areas in Los Angeles, and certainly the safest.

And it's close to Hollywood, if Scarlett is filming in Hollywood, it's better to go out.

Here we have to mention how the NBA is paid.

The most common is the January two-tie-up, which has two fixed pay days per month, which is the same way that most corporate employees in the United States receive their salaries.

But it's not absolute.

The NBA has a rule that after a new contract is signed, players can advance up to 80% of the contract's salary until October 1 of the current year.

But to do that, you have to have a good relationship with the team.

Like the NBA's more well-known twice, one was when Kobe Bryant withdrew 80% of his salary at one time in the 13~14 season because he was worried about currency depreciation, and a total of 24.36 million US dollars was used for investment.

Another time, it was Anthony, after signing a five-year 124 million contract extension with the Knicks, he successfully advanced 50% of his salary at one time, that is, a full $62 million, setting a record for the highest salary advance of an NBA player.

Sun Hao has just signed a 4-year contract with the Lakers, although the total salary is not as exaggerated as Anthony's, but if you advance in advance, plus some of his previous endorsements and Google dividends, it is more than enough to buy a house in Beverly Hills.

Well, the moon in a foreign country is not more round, and buying a house is a very large expenditure in life in most countries.

Scarlett didn't say anything either.

Don't think that Americans prefer to rent, it's because there are a lot of taxes to buy and buy a house in the United States.

When you're rich enough to ignore that, it's a bit of a stretch to say that you still like to rent.

Who doesn't love living in a house they bought?

The two made up their minds, and the next day Sun Hao called Gu Yi, who found an intermediary, and then went to Beverly Hills to see the house.

There aren't many houses in Beverly Hills, but there are a lot of them hanging on the agency.

The prices of the houses here are ridiculously high, and most of them are bought by local celebrities or giant crocodiles for investment.

Sun Hao doesn't know much about choosing a house, but Gu Yi is really in place.

In addition to the intermediary, he also found someone who looked at feng shui.

And he also went out of his way to investigate, not the kind of abduction.

Sun Hao felt that he had to give this guy a salary increase later, which really freed his hands completely.

In the end, they chose a nice villa, the interior Scarlett liked, with a swimming pool in front of the outside, a lawn in the back, and a bulldozed basketball court.

Greening or something, it's also very good.

Of course, according to the feng shui master, this house is prosperous, and it is human.

Sun Hao doesn't believe in this, but this house sits in the north and faces south, and the lighting and ventilation are very good, which is very suitable for people to live in.

After looking at the house, the group walked out of the gate when the sound of a car horn attracted their attention.

They turned their heads in confusion, and then found that when the window was lowered, it was a super big face.

"Shaq?"

Isn't it a big shark with a big head and a grin!

Sun Hao didn't expect to meet O'Neill here.

O'Neill got out of the car and greeted Sun Hao. And I was also very excited to say hello to Scarlett.

Without waiting for Sun Hao to ask, he pointed to the manor not far away and motioned to go to his house to sit down.

It was at this time that Sun Hao found out that the direction that O'Neill was pointing in was the one to the right of the house they had selected.

O'Neill also has a estate in Beverly Hills, and it's right next door to them?!

When Sun Hao realized this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the feng shui master invited by Gu Yi.

It's really human.

But this guy can't have brought them here after asking in advance, right?!

It's not impossible, many feng shui masters in movies rely on this way to cheat money and reputation.

But even that was worth it.

At least at this moment, Sun Hao's mood is quite good.

became teammates with O'Neal, and also became neighbors with O'Neal, so there was no need for a run-in period, and he went directly to the honeymoon!

O'Neill was married two years ago, and although he was affected by the Eagle County incident before, he and his wife Shannie had a good relationship.

When she arrived at his house, Shannie was also very enthusiastic, making them coffee and fruit.

And after sitting down and chatting, Sun Hao also knew the reason why O'Neill would be so excited to see Scarlett.

It turns out that this guy has been very close to Wen Ziren this summer, and has even finalized a cameo appearance in "Saw 2".

Scarlett is the heroine of "Chainsaw", and O'Neal's reaction is normal.

Speaking of which, this guy is really a big idler in the offseason, and he didn't leave his acting career behind at all.

But O'Neill's choice was completely fine.

He has participated in similar "Screaming 4" movies in his history, although it is funny, but with his talent as an actor, it is not difficult to make a cameo.

It was also in the chat that O'Neill learned about the relationship between Sun Hao and Wen Ziren, and that the investor of "Chainsaw" was Sun Hao's company.

Sun Hao could clearly feel that the eyes of this guy looking at him, well, there was the feeling of that classic Shaq teasing the cat's ass .jpg.

It seems that O'Neill's "ambition" is not just to make a cameo, he wants to participate in the series for a long time.

Sun Hao suddenly wanted to laugh, it was only a few short contacts, but he could feel that O'Neal was really interesting.

God knows how Kobe Bryant managed to get into trouble with such a guy.

But that's not what he cares about, he gets along with O'Neill, that's the most important thing.

Sun Hao's personality is the kind of person who cuts through the mess quickly, after the house is settled, he prepares the money the next day, and then completes the transfer or everything.

On the third day, driving his Lamborghini, Sun Hao and Scarlett moved into their new home in Beverly Hills.

This time, the quality of the bed was better.

……

The next day, Scarlett went to Hollywood to film, and Sun Hao also resumed his Evolution House training.

However, at the beginning, Durant made an opinion.

They have been practicing on their own, and although the effect is good, it is less fun.

He's been to the Los Angeles Street Court yesterday and they can consider going out and playing with the streetball guys.

Sun Hao thought this proposal was very good.

Los Angeles is not Dallas, and although the streetball culture here is not as strong as that of New York, it is second only to New York in the United States.

And there's a tournament that doesn't exist anywhere else in the country: the Drew League.

Most fans will not be unfamiliar with this name, and so is Sun Hao.

The hottest in the history of this league was in 2011, when the NBA went into a shutdown and most players were faced with the dilemma of not playing the ball.

Many players choose to play in overseas leagues, including JR Smith, Wells Chandler and others who played in the CBA at that time.

But because many overseas leagues won't allow players to bring options like "NBA start out of contract", most players remain home.

It's hard to maintain form just by training, you have to have games.

The Drew League, which is well-known in Los Angeles, has become the first choice of many NBA players.

The successive additions of James, Kobe, Durant, Cousins, Paul and others have made the Drew League popular.

Of course, those are things of the future, and the current Drew League is just a league with a small reputation in Los Angeles.

Sun Hao also thought a lot about how to participate in this competition, and finally he thought of something very interesting.

Uncle Drew.

The owner of this nickname in history is Kyrie Irving.

It was a special program that Nike did for him in order to promote him.

Since it's for fun, this one is going to be great.

Sun Hao brought Gu Yi over, and Gu Yi turned his head and contacted Adi's people.

This kind of thing, now that Sun Hao is already the top brand of Adi's basketball shoes, they are definitely willing to contribute money and efforts.

So, on a breezy night, a team called the "Old Man" raided the Drew League scene.

Every member of this team, with the wrinkles on their faces and the white beards on their chins, looked at least sixty or seventy years old.

The arenas in the Drew League are not large, and there are only a few hundred people at most.

But when it comes to basketball atmosphere, it's definitely no worse than the NBA.

The biggest reason for this is because the big players in this league are all local residents.

Well, people who watch village-level games in Guangdong should have a deep understanding that the atmosphere is completely explosive in the professional league.

It's actually a similar league, and like those leagues called "village BAs", these games will also have foreign players.

For example, the MHP team sitting at home tonight has Damon Jones, a shooter who has just joined the Lakers.

Of course, those fans at the scene were more curious about the raiding "old man team".

The people in this team are not only old, but also of uneven height, the tallest is two meters, but the shortest is only one meter and six, and the skeleton looks very thin.

Such an opponent...... There won't be any suspense in tonight's game.

Although the Drew League is small, there are a lot of links that should be there.

Before the game, the community reporter interviewed Damon Jones, the biggest player on the scene.

"What do you think are the chances of the MHP team winning tonight?"

"I have to say that MHP has always been a very good team, and they have an 80% chance of winning without me, but with me, the best scorer in the universe, the chance of winning is 100 percent."

After Jones's words were finished, there was a burst of laughter at the scene.

Sun Hao couldn't help but smile and shake his head after hearing this, his future teammate was a little flamboyant, but also a little humorous.

After the interview, Jones turned around and kissed Tina Thompson, who was sitting in the front row of the audience.

These two people are really showing their affection.

The game started quickly, and the MHP team easily got the opportunity to attack first.

Jones came up with a wobbly three-point shot.

The cheers at the scene also exploded at once.

The G-spot of these audience sentiments is much lower than that of NBA fans.

And in the next round, Jones directly steals the hand and staged a fast-break two-handed dunk, igniting the scene again.

Many people have some misconceptions about NBA players, such as thinking that Jordan Jr. can only dunk, Nash can only shoot, Nick Young can only play singles, and so on.

But in fact, it was very much because their respective teams needed them to perform like that.

It's really time for the amateur competition, Jordan Jr.'s crotch show is flying, and Nick Young is even more versatile, Nash...... Well, Nash really won't dunk.

But what is certain is that there are so many more NBA players than many people think.

On the old man's side, "Old Curry" lost the ball after another confrontation, and Jones assisted his teammate to make a layup.

The MHP team opened the game with a 7-0 win over the old man.

The scene could not stop the boos.

I don't know where the organizers found such a team composed of old men this time, this game is too low to watch.

At this moment, the old man No. 1 Sun Hao and the old man No. 2 Durant made eye contact.

According to the direction of the script, after the opening deflated, the old man team is going to rise up!

Jones didn't know that it was Sun Hao who he was guarding against.

Looking at the gray-bearded old man in front of him, he couldn't bear to do it again.

But at this time, Sun Hao dribbled with one hand and made a gesture to him with the other hand to come over to defend me.

Jones was stunned for a moment, and the audience at the scene were also stunned.

But soon, there was a commotion at the scene.

This old man is a little underwhelmed.

ps: It's a bit of a Kavin, I've been sitting for a day, let me update a chapter today and sort out my thoughts.
