Deafening sounds echoed in his ears, and such a scene reminded Lin Mu of the prosperous picture of Kobe Bryant's trip to China.

At that time, Lin Mu stood in an inconspicuous corner, cheering Kobe Bryant and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "If there is a basketball player who belongs to China, and his achievements can reach such heights, what a happy thing it would be." ”

I envy those fans who were born in the Yao Ming era, at their age, they experienced the true joy of chasing stars together.

When he arrived at the hotel, Lin Mu met his old acquaintance at the door: Kobe Bryant!

"Oh, you're everywhere!"

"Big Red, Lin Mu!"

The two hugged and gestured, looking at Kobe Bryant's dress, obviously going to some business event.

It's going to be a game the day after tomorrow, how much do you look down on our Oklahoma City Thunder?

From the perspective of the lineup, the Los Angeles Lakers are indeed much stronger than the Thunder.

The interior twin Tagasol and Bynum, the point guard Lao Yu, the split Kobe, and the all-round basketball player on the No. 3 position, Ramar Odom, in addition, Ariza on the bench, Famar, Vujasic, Wharton, Shannon Brown, all have strong fighting ability.

Of course, the two sides will not play too seriously in the preseason, but the Thunder, who have just changed coaches, must be mentally adequate, and head coach Scott hopes that the players will show their best form to make the list of appearances during the regular season.

"The game the day after tomorrow, I won't show mercy!" Kobe said with a smile, his face inadvertently revealing a little war.

During the Olympics, Lin Mu was the number one opponent of the American team on the court, and even Spain's big and small combination failed to bring too much trouble to the American team.

With Lin Mu's continuous improvement, Kobe Bryant certainly wants to have a good competition with such an outstanding young man on the court.

"We'll see."

After a simple greeting, Lin Mu took the basketball to a private training place after sorting out his luggage.

Beside him, there is also a somewhat unhappy Kevin Durant.

"You've just gotten off the plane, so you can't let me rest for a while?"

"Look, my eyes are still red!"

As he spoke, Durant grumbled and pointed to his eyes.

"It's either or peeing, you have a lot of every day!"

"Hurry, training, urgently!" Lin Mu pushed Durant to the court, and the hundredth heads-up between the two was about to blow the horn of the charge!

If there is no use in resisting, it is better to close your eyes, silently perceive, and enjoy.

That's the case with Durant today.

As time passed, Durant's physical strength began to bottom out, and Lin Mu would do his best every time he defended, which caused Durant to spend more energy trying to attack.

At the beginning, the two played back and forth, and Durant was even able to use his height advantage to overtake Lin Mu.

But when his physical fitness gradually declined, Durant's biggest shortcoming was exposed.

The sharp drop in the shooting percentage, the thin body is unable to complete an effective breakthrough in the face of strong defenders, when the arrow figure is strangled by the opposite side, the team's defense will inevitably bear more pressure, once the score is chased back, the team will inevitably fall into a disadvantage, and it is very easy to lose the victory of the game.

"With your physical condition, you still want to kill all sides on the court?"

After speaking, Lin Mu strode into the interior line and easily hit the board and layup, without any difficulty at all.

"You think everyone is like you? Like a pervert! Durant glanced at Lin Mu angrily.

"Why does this sound so familiar?" Lin Mu scratched his head, always feeling that such a scene was familiar.

"Two more rounds, go back to dinner!"

"Coming back? It's really not good, can you rest for a while? I'm going to throw up, and I'm going to eat a hammer meal! Durant tried to resist, but he didn't expect to be slapped on the ground by Lin Mu.

"Little Cub, this is Huaxia!"

"Lao Tzu's territory, Lao Tzu is in charge!"

"Say two more rounds, two more rounds, there is no negotiation at all!"

Under Lin Mu's obscenity, Durant was abused for two hours in tears, and the moment he walked out of the training hall, his sky and stars were bright.

....

In the city of Guangzhou in October, the temperature is as hot as ever, and children can be seen playing everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The old man carrying the rock sugar gourd shouted to do business, and the candy man's pancake stall from time to time came out of the delicious taste of his childhood.

The leisurely evening life, China in 2008, is far from being as fast-paced as it will be in the future.

The Guangzhou Gymnasium is now brightly lit, and countless fans from all over the world have poured into this modern stadium that can accommodate 9,000 people.

Of course, there are still many fans who did not make it to the stadium, gathered in the square with a big screen live broadcast, just waiting for the upcoming basketball game.

In the player tunnel, men's basketball teammates Lin Mu and Sun Yue met again after nearly two months.

To Lin Mu's surprise, Sun Dasheng actually became stronger, and the muscles full of his body, he knew at a glance that he had not practiced less.

Compared with the cynical and arrogant Sun Yue in his previous life, this is a bit like two people.

"I heard from the UAE that he has received a big improvement from you, and if I can, I would like to train with you as well." Sun Yue said with a smile, not at all.

"Of course, you can come to me at any time if you need to."

"Of course, remember to prepare a few more bottles of fast-acting heart pills, I didn't have the kung fu to save you."

Between the jokes, the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, in the shouts of the live MC, began!

When Lin Mu finally entered the stadium as the host, the 9,000 fans in the stadium burst into an amazing shout.

"Lin Mu!"

"Lin Mu!

”

"Lin Mu!

！ ”

The sound resounded throughout the audience over and over again, and it was even more terrifying than Kobe Bryant's welcome ceremony!

If so, who wants to cheer for outsiders?

In addition to those extreme black fans with abnormal brains, every Chinese fan has the most sincere enthusiasm for their own players in their hearts.

"It seems that you in Huaxia are more popular than me."

"Of course, I have the same blood as them."

The basketball was thrown into the air, and Pau Gasol helped the Lakers win the first wave of possession!

The Lakers started five Tigers: Fisher, Kobe, Odom, Pau Gasol and Bynum.

The Thunder's starting five: Earl Watson, Sephorosa, Lin Mu, Durant and Nenad Kostic.

Because of the overlapping positions, Jeff Green could only be on the bench and sat on the bench.

Starting point guard Watson, the oldest of the Thunder's starting five, is also a player who has been on the team since the SuperSonics.

A mediocre offense, a mediocre defense, but the only starting point guard on the Thunder's lineup who took a shot.

Seforrosa in the division is more like a defensive engineer, his height of 2.01 meters allows him to limit the opponent's scoring when defending, and today he is also the Thunder player who mainly defends Kobe.

Center forward Kostic, who is 2.13 meters tall, has some independent offensive ability, but not much.

The card position is very skillful in grabbing the board, and the typical European meat shield type is slow inside.

It is not difficult to see from the starting lineup that the Thunder have a big problem with their current staffing.

There is an extreme shortage of players on the back line, a lack of athletic rim-protecting centers on the inside, and a lack of good personnel options for the power forward position.

Of course, there is no worry about Lin Mu on the inside, and when Yin Bacca returns to the team, Jordan Jr. gradually grows, plus the original Kostic, the Thunder's frame protection ability can definitely reach the forefront of the league.

The only headache is the configuration of the duo at the back.

If you want to solve this problem completely, I am afraid that you will have to wait until after the 2009 draft.

If it works properly, I'm afraid it's not far from the moment when the Thunder really rises!

The Lakers took the lead in attacking, and under the cheers of the audience, Kobe Bryant singled with the ball, and came with a dashing turn and backwards at the beginning.

The posture is very handsome, but the crosshair is a little worse, the basketball pops out of the frame, and Lin Mu jumps high and takes the basketball into his pocket.

Handing the ball to Watson, Lin Mu crossed the run with Durant, creating a short opportunity for Durant to shoot.

"Brush!"

The signature shooting action, receiving an assist from Lin Mu, Durant completed the first athletic battle score after the opening.

The skillful cooperation made the new Thunder coach Coster nod.

Although Lin Mu's shooting ability is a little lacking, it doesn't matter, projection is Durant's forte.

On the contrary, the defense and overall view that Durant is not good at are exactly what Lin Mu is very good at.

Throughout his career, Durant has never been on the All-Defensive Team, which is a serious drawback for a superstar.

And if you want to become a superstar, shooting is an extremely important basketball skill.

The two complement each other, and in Scott's eyes, it's a very good situation.

Of course, if you want to lead the Thunder further, Lin Mu's shooting level must be improved in the future.

Fortunately, this kid worked hard enough, and I believe that it won't be long before Lin Mu will have more options for shooting in his arsenal.

Looking back, Kobe Bryant did not continue to choose to attack, and handed the ball to Lamar Odom, the all-round warrior who was selected by the Clippers in the first round in 1999 and belonged to the No. 4 show with Lin Mu.

Before James, if there was one of the most well-rounded forwards in the league, Odom was the undisputed number one.

Before LeBron James came along, he was the youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double.

Because he is left-handed and has too many shadows of Magic Johnson - more than 2 meters tall, can control the ball, can score inside and out, and can play 5 positions on the court, he was called "left-handed magic" when he first entered the NBA.

The only pity is that Odom himself admits that he doesn't have too much desire to attack when he plays.

So because of his personality, Odom can be a good second-in-command, but he can't be the leader of the team, but his ability is beyond doubt.

Facing the rookie who is in full swing, Odom naturally wants to give Lin Mu some color to see.

All the players pulled away, and Odom launched a strong attack in the bottom left corner, trying to complete a breakthrough layup against Lin Mu.

Obviously, Odom underestimated Lin Mu's defensive intensity, although Zen master Jackson specially told Lin Mu's excellent defense before the game, Odom was a little underestimated when facing rookie players.

"Is this man sick?" Looking at Odom scurrying left and right in his arms, Lin Mu wanted to tell him that he was not the "convex and backward" Khloe Kardashian.

I have the impression that Odom will marry Kohler next year, and if he can, Lin Mu still hopes to make Odom a friend.

As for now...

"Bring it to you!" With both hands like vices, Lin Mu snatched the basketball from Odom's hands.

"Hey! Brother, here, here! ”

Looking up, Durant is already waiting to be fed in front of him!

Walk you!

A long pass found Durant with some difficulty, and the latter, with his exaggerated long legs, ignored Bynum's defense, and completed a one-handed cracker!

“Mua~~”

After landing, Durant kissed Lin Mu directly, and winked mischievously.

“Yue~~~”

Lin Mu beckoned to coach Scott, he needed to rest, and he was vomited by Durant!

However, Adu's excesses are far from over.
