The free confrontation lasted for an hour and the atmosphere in the stadium was always lively.

Players like O'Quinn and Crowder who are a little famous have been interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.

It's all arranged by their agents, and the right amount of exposure can add to the rookie's fame and make the team pay more attention to them.

Like Li Liang, who doesn't even have an agent, is a little transparent, and no reporter will interview him.

As soon as the free competition ended, Li Liang shook hands and hugged the temporary partners of Fournier and Odom, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then went back to the locker room.

Wei Dazhi left the viewing seat, ran to Li Liang, held the recorder and said, "Hey, hey, may I ask Mr. Gan Liliang, how do you feel about this half-day training camp experience?" ”

Li Liang glanced at Wei Dazhi and said, "Why are you interviewing me again?" You're an unlicensed interview, I'll ask the staff to take you out. ”

Wei Dazhi said: "Just say a few words!" I'll post the interview with you on my page, I have a lot of followers now, and they're all real fans. ”

Li Liang had no choice but to say: "I've convinced you, so I'll say a few words." It feels good, the physical test is very good, and it played at a normal level. It's okay to play free, and overall I think I have what it takes to get into the NBA. ”

Wei Dazhi nodded with satisfaction and said, "I agree with your opinion, although you haven't scored a few goals, your defense is really good." Awesome, awesome. ”

As a senior ball blind, Li Liang's excellent defense can still be seen by Wei Dazhi.

He immediately edited the relevant content and posted it on the homepage of various social networking sites, and posted a post on a domestic forum.

Li Liang's remarks were quickly ridiculed by some netizens, who thought that Li Liang was bragging.

This is very normal, no one will think that Li Liang has the level to enter the NBA.

After the last NCAA finals, Li Liang's remarks caused a small controversy.

However, this time, there are obviously more people who support Li Liang, and they think that Li Liang's attempt is worth encouraging.

Even if it doesn't work, it's another effort by the Chinese players.

After arguing for a while, it quickly sank.

Li Liang returned to the locker room, took a shower and changed his clothes, and prepared to go out for lunch.

"What a broken training camp, I don't even care about a meal."

Li Liang complained in his heart, thinking that if he is not familiar with life, where should he go to eat?

The point is that without a car, it is not convenient to go anywhere.

Just thinking about it, someone patted him behind him, Li Liang thought it was Wei Dazhi, and said, "What do you eat at noon?" You're in for a treat, huh? ”

Looking back, it wasn't Wei Dazhi, it was a middle-aged white man in a white shirt and about 40.

Li Liang looked at him and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, I'm a scout for the Los Angeles Lakers, Ryan West." ”

After watching Li Liang's free confrontation training, Ryan West decided to strike first.

He wants to get in touch with Li Liang before other scouts contact him.

If even Wei Dazhi's hemisphere blindness can see that Li Liang's defense is excellent, other scouts can see it more clearly.

West must be the first to let Li Liang know himself and find a way to keep him out of reach for other scouts.

West thought that Li Liang would be pleasantly surprised to hear his name, but he didn't expect Li Liang to say nothing after hearing the words "Lakers, scouts".

He just shook West's hand lightly and said, "Hello, I'm Bruce Lee, what's the matter?" ”

What else can a scout do with coming to a rookie?

This kid, isn't his brain very good?

In fact, Li Liang is not unclear, he knew that his performance would impress some scouts, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

At the same time, this kid is mobilizing the [Ball Blind Detector] in the system to detect this Ryan West's ball blindness index.

"With a ball blindness index of 33 percent, I have a deep understanding of the excavation and development of players, as well as basketball, but the theory is stronger than the practice...... It turned out to be a senior ball blind, and sure enough, it was a scout. ”

Ryan West wants to know that the evaluation he gets from Li Liang is high-level ball blindness, and I'm afraid I'm going to be speechless.

Seeing that Li Liang didn't react, he said, "I am very impressed by your performance today, maybe we can talk." ”

Li Liang nodded and said, "Of course you can, but... But I'm a little hungry right now and want to eat. ”

Dine? West saw that this kid wanted to take the opportunity to eat.

But there is no way, if you want to recruit players, you have to pay a price.

West said generously: "No problem, I know a good restaurant, I'm in for a treat." ”

Li Liang said: "Hey, wait a minute, there are also my friends, together." ”

Wei Dazhi only came out after taking the photo at this time, and found that Li Liang had already found the meal ticket, and when he asked, it turned out to be a Lakers scout!

Wei Dazhi was so shocked that his chin was about to fall off.

Talking again, he is also the son of a famous legend, Jerry West!

Wei Dazhi almost hugged Ryan West's thigh and called Dad, so that he could recognize Jerry West as his grandfather.

Jerry West is the league's management he admires the most, and an old-school player like him that "old" fans admire the most.

From Wei Dazhi, Ryan West has regained a little celebrity confidence, and it seems that there are more normal people in this world.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Li Liangzhi didn't eat and drink, he ordered fish, chicken, some vegetables, juice, and told him to put less oil, salt, and seasonings.

At the dinner table, Ryan West got straight to the point, saying that he was optimistic about Li Liang's performance and that the Lakers could give him a tryout.

The team's tryout opportunity is a pie in the sky for any average rookie.

How many powerful rookies don't even have the opportunity to go to a professional team for a morning of tryouts.

Li Liang was not in a hurry, carefully eating the fish in front of him with an expressionless face, and said, "Tell me your conditions." ”

"Conditions? What conditions? This is an opportunity for you, this is your opportunity, how could I put conditions on you. ”

Ryan West found that this kid wasn't like your average hairy kid.

When they heard that the Lakers were giving them a tryout, they were probably going crazy with joy, but he didn't move.

This reminded West of Yao Ming, who just smiled lightly after being selected in the draft.

Perhaps, the Chinese are so reserved and good at restraining their emotions.

But Ryan West also remembered another person, and that was his father, Jerry West.

He is always moody.

"Why don't you think about asking Anthony Davis to come to you for a tryout?" Li Liang asked as if he was joking.

"Davis? Oh, no kidding, he's the top pick of the year, we don't have a chance, we only..."

Speaking of which, Ryan West suddenly got stuck.

He wanted to say: "We only have the number 60 signing. ”

Li Liangdao: "That's right, you only have the No. 60 sign, which is almost the lowest position. Almost all the rookies you particularly like will not be selected. And I don't think I'm going to fall into that position. ”

Wei Dazhi, who was sitting on the side, heard what Li Liang said, and his heart was about to jump out.

What does he mean by that? Meaning the Lakers aren't eligible to try him?

You're an NCAA water cooler by yourself, and it's a blessing to be able to participate in training camp, and having a team tryout is pie in the sky.

Are you still picky? Where does the confidence come from?

Wei Dazhi really wanted to remind Li Liang: Senior brother, you are from it! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

However, the second senior brother still held back, he shut up and listened, because he believed in Li Liang.

Sure enough, after staring at Li Liang for ten seconds, Ryan West shrugged his shoulders, sighed, and said, "Okay, okay, I do have the conditions." Our rank is really too low, and we have no chance of winning if there is a competition. But to be honest, it may be a little ugly, you are really a bit unknown, and I took a big risk by letting you try out. So, my condition is that you get out of this rookie camp and go straight to our tryout. If the trial is satisfying, we can most likely take you out in 60th place. If you are not satisfied, you can move on to another camp. ”

This condition is undoubtedly a bit harsh.

If Li Liang is not allowed to continue to participate in the training camp, he will have no chance to show himself to other teams.

At the same time, the Lakers can't guarantee that the tryout will definitely select him, and West used a "high probability".

If he is not satisfied, Li Liang will continue to participate in the training camp.

The training camp in the future may not have such a good environment.

Because of this, West didn't mention this condition at first.

He wanted to wait for Li Liang to agree, and then make up a reason, telling him to go to the trial training immediately in the afternoon, otherwise it would be difficult to arrange the time when it was too late.

Many young people can't resist the temptation of trying out on their own and give up on training camp without thinking about it.

Especially since this is still a tryout for the Lakers, which is the dream of many basketball teenagers?

Unexpectedly, Ryan's trick was seen through by Li Liang, because Li Liang can accurately recognize his own value.

Now that he knows his own value, Li Liang can't just let the Lakers tie him up with a solo tryout and a 60th pick.

Li Liang finished eating the fish on the plate, wiped his mouth, and said, "Mr. West, I can agree to your conditions, withdraw from the afternoon training camp, and then only participate in the Lakers' trial." ”

Hearing Li Liang say this, Ryan's heart was relieved, but he thought that Li Liang must have something else to say.

Li Liang continued: "I also have a few conditions, I hope you can agree, and you will not break your word." ”

"Yes, let's talk about it."

"One, my tryouts are going to be in Los Angeles, not just two people at a random venue here in New York."

West did think so at first, first inspect and investigate by himself, but Li Liang saw through it, so he had to agree.

"Okay, no problem." West nodded, anyway, the tryout team didn't have a lot of work this summer, just looking for something.

"Second, if you are not satisfied with the results of my tryout, please send me a referral letter to let me participate in another training camp or, preferably, a tryout with another team."

Li Liang has confidence in himself, but he has to prepare for everything, and besides, if the Lakers look at him, he may not be able to look at the Lakers.

"OK, no problem." For a well-connected giant like the Lakers, a letter of introduction is a piece of cake.

"Thirdly, this friend of mine, Chris Wei, I'll take him with me to the tryout. I hope to get him a press seat. ”

Li Liang didn't forget Wei Dazhi.

Wei Dazhi's gaze at Li Liang at this time was full of admiration and affection, and he was almost about to make a promise.

West still nodded, and it was still not difficult to achieve.

After saying the three conditions, West was a little surprised.

He thought that Li Liang would make some financial requests, give some living expenses, travel expenses, nutrition subsidies or something.

Unexpectedly, two conditions were for the sake of ensuring the smooth draft, and one condition was for my friends.

He is a penniless water dispenser and has no agent, but he is very able to use his own value to negotiate conditions.

This kid is really not simple.

Changed to other scouts, an unknown person dared to talk about the conditions like this after a morning of tryout, and left without looking back.

But Ryan West is different, he has a risk-taking and decisive vein in him.

After eating, West was ready to settle the bill, but Li Liang insisted on AA.

He said he just wanted West to take him to find a place to eat, not to treat him.

West had no choice but to agree, and Li Liang added another point to his heart.

He felt more and more that his adventure might be the right one.

Finally, West asked Li Liang how to notify and contact him for a tryout.

Li Liang took a post-it note from the front desk, wrote a phone number and handed it to West, and said, "Call this, this is my agent's number." ”

West put away the post-it notes and left, he was going back to report the matter to Bass.

Wei Dazhi said strangely: "Agent, when did you have an agent?" ”

"Just now, I had an agent and a journalist friend."

"That's... Damn, that can't be Zhu Shu's phone number, right? ”

"You guessed it."

"She... She's a girl and works as an agent...... Also, she hasn't promised you yet, has she? ”

"Don't worry, I'll give her a condition she can't refuse."
