Li Forest followed everyone back to the locker room.

On the way back to the locker room, looking at the familiar scenes, Li Linlin's mind finally turned.

"Staples Center"!

It is home to the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers in the NBA, the Los Angeles Kings in the NHL, the Los Angeles Sparks in the WNBA, and the Los Angeles Avengers in the former AFL.

No wonder it looks so familiar, no, CCTV often broadcasts live game scenes.

Staples' player locker room is on the lowest level of the basement.

It's both a place for player reporters and a showcase for Lakers history.

In the short aisle of the Lakers' locker room, there are pictures that record historical moments.

When Li Forest passed by, he was shocked by the historical scenes of the real photos of the hanger.

This TM is really the NBA.

Li Forest is very difficult to admit the current situation, he has really changed from an ordinary white-collar worker on the other side of the ocean to an NBA player.

Li Linlin carefully recalled the memories in his mind.

Li Linlin in this world, family background, hometown location has not changed, but this Li Linsen came to the United States after the college entrance examination, played three years in the NCAA, and participated in the draft as a 22-year-old college student this year, and was selected by the SuperSonics with the 56th pick in the second round, which is now the Ohlahoma City Thunder, his height is 1.94 meters, and he serves as a two-way guard.

On the morning of September 3 this year, with Oklahoma's original supersonic team holding a press conference, they announced their new team name, the Thunder.

This is the first year that the Thunder team has been established, and of course, the players are basically the original superSonics.

But it's a pity that Li Linsen, who was drafted by the SuperSonics, didn't get a contract with the Thunder in the summer.

It wasn't until mid-season that several of the Thunder's backup guards were plagued by injuries, and the general manager looked at the roster of scouts to find out that his team still had a second-round pick to sign.

In line with the idea of not wasting draft pick resources, although the Thunder don't have much of anything, they just draft picks, and there are many rookies. The general manager gave Li Forest a 10-day contract in case the team had too many injuries and there was no substitute defender.

Lee Forest was forgotten at the time, and it was also related to the SuperSonics' move to Ohrahomma, when management changes were frequent, and the Thunder were notoriously rookies, and the management hurriedly signed first-round pick Russell Westbrook to the contract, and then stopped signing other rookies.

The members of the management were too busy to take care of themselves because of the change of owners, the team's work was close to stopping, and the NBA did not agree to a contract guarantee system for second-round picks, so Li Forest was forgotten.

When a player is selected in the first round of the draft, the team that drafted him must sign him to a contract of at least four (3+1 or 2+2) years.

The player selected in the second round will be on the player's team for three years, but the team does not have to sign with them.

Many American NCAA players, if they can't be drafted in the first round, would rather continue to stay in the NCAA, because the players who are drafted in the second round are very unfavorable to the players, in addition to the fact that they may not get the team's contract, once they are selected by the unsuitable team, the road of the NBA will be difficult to walk in the future, so in this context, Li Forest has been completely shelved.

When the first 10-day contract ended, it happened that Westbrook, a first-round pick, suffered a small injury, so the coaching staff, worried that no one was available, gave Lee Forest a second 10-day short contract.

A 10-day contract is a contract that is usually signed when the team is short of personnel, or to see if a player is suitable for their team system. It is commonly known as "temporary worker".

To be honest, Li Linlin was also a particularly miserable one in the second round of the show.

Seeing that the second 10-day contract is coming to an end today.

Westbrook's injury has improved again, after all, he is an iron man, so he will basically not be absent due to injury, plus the original Thunder's backcourt is very crowded, and there are many players with guaranteed contracts, so after today, either Li Forest signed a guaranteed contract with the Thunder, or was cut.

Judging from the performance of Li Linsen during the two 10-day short contract matches and training in memory, there is a high probability that Li Linsen will be cut.

Lee's performances in training and previous matches were exemplary in failure.

Coach Scott Brooks has already rated Lee Forest as a guard who does not have excellent shooting ability, is inconsistent in shooting, and has okay ball control ability, but has a bad view of the big picture and is a guard with poor physical confrontation ability.

These are already close to a kind of evaluation of the decision to cut him.

Thinking about these things in his head, with the mixing of the two memories, now Li Linlin can't figure out whether he is playing a 2k game in 2018 and Li Linsen who traveled over inexplicably, or whether this Li Linlin traveled to the future and experienced those scenes.

Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies? There is simply no logic? Worn through? Still talk to me about science? Therefore, Li Linlin is ready to accept the current status quo.

This time, it was Li Linsen's memory that came to the future to take the initiative, so the pictures from the future in the memory are definitely real, definitely not dreams.

After sorting out his thoughts as he walked, Li Shulin also walked back to the locker room, found a stool and sat down, sat on the stool and continued to sort out his memories.

Coach Scott Brooks ignored Lee Forest, who was in a daze, and directly picked up the tactics board and told several starters about the tactics of the second half.

Today is November 27, 2008, and the newcomers Thunder are away to take on this year's championship contenders, the Los Angeles Lakers.

Thinking about his current situation, combined with the performance just now, it doesn't seem good, today is the last day of the contract, do you have to be laid off after today?

Looking at the coach's attitude towards himself now, he is already in a state of not wanting to deal with him at all, if there is no change in the next game, then he should be out of work tomorrow.

It's so cool, my heart is congested.

Li Linlin is now worried about his future life, he thinks about how he will live after he travels over and doesn't play? I hesitated whether to go home at night.,Hurry up and make a resume and go out to find a job interview.。。

I have to say that Li Linlin can't help but want to bring the experience of looking for a job in his previous life to try it here, this mentality.

I don't know if I, a person who didn't graduate from the draft in my junior year, will find a job, will my college diploma be recognized?

Brooks is still giving lectures to a group of players, and now that the Thunder are trailing by 11 points at halftime, and Li Forest is still wandering in the world, Brooks' eyes have shifted to Li Linsen's side, and he already has a plan in his heart.

After the training, there was still some time at halftime, and the white assistant coach Jack came over and said to Li Linlin: "Lee, do you know what you did in the last attack of the first half?" Why not follow the previous tactical arrangement? Now it's okay, let's pack up and leave. ”

Jack said angrily to Li Linlin, this opportunity was won by him with the head coach, and it was wasted, Jack said that he was very distressed.

Li Forest looked at the white man who pushed himself on the field and got angry at himself, this was the first time Li Forest was noticed in the locker room, although he was sprayed, he still felt a trace of warmth, he suffered a series of blows, at least someone came to spray.

What Li Forest didn't know was that there was no one in the locker room to bird him,

Live broadcast in the Celestial Empire, Tiger Pounce, Sina watched all kinds of text live broadcasts and video live broadcasts on Sina and sprayed him miserably, and the anchor of the text live broadcast also made a GIF of his series of actions that Kobe Bryant singled out for netizens to vent, and netizens stepped on Li Forest and held Kobe Bryant.

Looking at this familiar face, the memory remembered that this assistant coach was his head coach in the NCAA, a 35-year-old young coach who had taught himself for three years and had just joined the Thunder coaching staff this offseason.

After a series of sprays of Li Linlin, Jack sat down next to him, looked left and right, made sure that there was no one around, and he whispered to Li Linlin: "Li, if you have a chance in the second half, I will fight with the head coach for your last chance to play." If you go up again, you can't mess it up. ”

In the face of this Jack who did his best to be good for him, Li Linlin only replied in a low voice.

“OK！” ，

This can be regarded as a backdoor, in the world, not only in the Celestial Empire, there are relationships that are advanced help, however, these are all based on the fact that you yourself also have a certain amount of strength and resources, and now Li Forest is in such an embarrassing stage, there are people above, there are relationships, but his own strength is too poor, which is difficult to do.

Then Jack said a lot to Li Linlin, saying how he should play when he played, and Li Linlin had no choice but to be.

After a while, Jack also got up and walked away, he still had work to do, he had already explained everything he should have said to Li Linlin, and then it was up to him. He has done his best, and if he can't take advantage of the opportunity, then he doesn't belong to this alliance.

Li Linlin promised to be very happy, but now it's difficult to ride a tiger, at first I thought this was a wild ball game, who knew that this TM was the NBA...

NBA with wild ball? Is it comparable? Even if it is a CBA, it is still professional, and the gap is all-round.

At this time, Li Forest suddenly thought of the funny behavior just now.

Kobe Bryant, the peak of single defense, his teammates wanted to come to the pinch, but he was stopped by himself, and he was delusional about breaking the ball.

This deserves to be shaken into a pen, thinking of this, Li Forest is so ashamed that he wants to hit the wall, whether he wears it or not, it's too embarrassing.

When Li Forest was hesitating whether to hit the wall, the break time for the halftime was also coming, the coach organized everyone to play, and Li Forest also stood up and went out with everyone.

Good guys, looking at the familiar figures walking around, Wei Shao, Durant, Green... Denggo has not been selected yet. Li Linlin had a feeling of dreaming again, although none of these people spoke to him.
