Chapter 135: Homecoming
Two months have passed, and Lei Lei was recommended by Kobe and Jordan during this period to hire Tim Grover as his trainer.
It was on the front page of sports.
Tim Grover said in an interview: "Lei Lei and Mike, Kobe Bryant are not the same kind of person at all, he is not the same kind of person, he is not paranoid, the desire to win and lose is not as strong as Jordan, he is always at ease, he knows where his weaknesses are, as if he can predict the result in advance, and he also knows when to rest and when to train." ”
"He doesn't train every day, whenever he knows that there is no result in training today, he will rest, summarize what he has learned today, after training he will review with me, he will not go outside to spend all day's drinking, he also learns things very quickly, whenever I teach him a new thing, he will quickly become his own, not a simple imitation, he will draw inferences."
"His talent is really good, I can't describe it in words, you know what, Jordan is one big and you can't believe what you're seeing, he told me that he's a spoiler in the league right now, he wants to change the current pattern, he can't always be alone, and he also told me that he will never leave the Lakers to find a strong teammate because he firmly believes he is the strongest!"
······
The Cavaliers made history by reversing the Warriors to win the championship after falling behind 3-1.
LeBron James, who also brought a championship to Cleveland, didn't break his promise.
June 24, 2016.
The scene of the NBA draft.
When the joke came on stage, the court was full of boos, and the NBA draft officially began!
Lei Lei and Lakers executives sat in the box.
"Ray, do you have any good advice for the No. 3 pick from Russell?"
Kupchak looked at Lei Lei expectantly.
The latter looked at the list and asked, "Are the Celts so talkative?" ”
"You don't have to worry about this, we can't suffer, the team is built around you, it's not Russell, except for you, the rest of the players in the team have been put on the shelf."
Lei Lei shrugged his shoulders, when he knew that Russell had changed the lottery alone, he felt that the Lakers had lost money, at least they had to do something more, so it was a pity.
While Lei Lei was still thinking, the 76ers drafted Ben Simmons with the top pick, and the Phoenix Suns selected Ingram.
The staff prompted the Lakers to make a choice.
Kupchak urged, "Ray, it's our turn, Jim and Jenny both said that you would listen to you in this draft, you should hurry up." ”
"Jaylen Brown!"
Kupchak didn't question Lei Lei, anyway, it was Lei Lei's choice, and the management took Lei Lei if there was a problem.
Immediately handed over the name.
The joke was read with a smile in the front court: "The third pick in the NBA draft, the Lakers choose Jaylen Brown from the University of California, Berkeley!" ”
The Lakers fans in the stadium were very puzzled, why didn't they choose a big man, but chose Jaylen Brown, who is similar to Lei Lei?
Lakers fans are puzzled, but Jaylen Brown is happy, because he knows that he is about to play with Lei Lei, when he was in training camp, Kobe and Maddie have been using Lei Lei to motivate young players, and he played an epic performance in his rookie season, there is no rookie who doesn't want to play with Lei Lei, doesn't want to play with the Lakers!
Jaylen Brown happily took the Lakers' hat and walked onto the stage.
In the box, Kupchak was answering the phone all the time, and a bunch of people were asking if Jaylen Brown would make a trade, and the players on the team let the Lakers pick and choose.
Kupchak rejected them all, and he could let others rob them of what he chose.
"Ray, do you have any suggestions for the 15th pick?"
"Russell was traded, someone has to add it, I remember the Spurs didn't want Dejounte Murray? Then choose him! You know the eye of the Spurs! ”
Soon it was time for the 15th pick, and Kupchak immediately submitted Dejounte Murray's name.
After Popovich heard that Dejounte Murray was drafted away by the Lakers at the draft meeting, he yelled at the scene: "Lakers, Lakers, Lakers!"
!
, it must be that stinky boy of Ray, it must be his idea! The Lakers' management simply couldn't have thought of Murray! ”
······
"You don't need me in the second round, do you?"
"We all know who to pick in the second round."
"Then it's okay, I'll go first, tomorrow's plane, I have to rush back to China."
"Okay, see you at the training camp, and when the free market opens, the team will try to sign as many people as you mentioned!"
Lei Lei nodded and left the scene of the draft meeting, and he had not returned to China on the plane early tomorrow morning.
······
"Dear passengers, welcome to China, returning travelers, welcome home!"
Lei Lei was asleep, heard the voice of the flight attendant, rubbed his eyes, and couldn't wait to open the visor, wanting to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland immediately.
Lei Lei was fully armed, no one found him, and no one knew that he would return to China at this point in time.
When he came to the underground parking lot, he saw a plump woman waving to him, walked over quickly, and shouted, "Sister Innocence! ”
"Long time no see, get in the car first."
"It's okay, no one found me."
"Are you sure? You look behind you. ”
Lei Lei turned his head and found that many people were taking pictures with their mobile phones, and someone shouted: "Lei Lei, welcome back to China!" ”
"Damn, how do they know it's me?"
"Then I don't know, get in the car first, or you won't be able to leave when there are more people."
Lei Lei heard Yang Tianzhen's words and immediately got into the car, wanting to escape the scene quickly for the first time.
In the car.
"I haven't scheduled it lately, have I?"
"There are a lot of them."
"Huh? I'm going to report to the national team, and there's an advertisement? ”
"Yes, didn't you report to the national team in July, you still have 5 days to go, and these days may be hard."
"Okay, the money is given anyway, and we can't break the contract."
"They got the news that you have recently returned to China and are ready, do you want to take a break or?"
"Go straight ahead, I don't need to get jet lag, my earliest plane during the day, and now it's also daytime, so I just slept a little."
"You're this."
Yang Tianzhen gave a thumbs up directly when he heard Lei Lei's words, and he had to say that Lei Lei had a lot of ghost ideas.
When Lei Lei returned to China, the Basketball Association also announced the list of men's basketball teams for the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Lei Lei, Ding Yanyuhang, Yi Jianlian, Li Gen, Li Muhao, Zhou Peng, Wang Zhelin, Zhai Xiaochuan, Guo Allen, Zhao Jiwei, Zhou Qi, Zou Yuchen, who were selected in the second round.
Yao Ming has made an appointment with Lei Lei to meet in the evening, and the raised hand of this Olympic trip is still the representative of the men's basketball team, but the honor of the flag bearer belongs to Lei Lei's head.
