And by this time, Li Lei had returned to China.

Li Lei's family first returned to Lianyungang City, where their ancestral home was located, and then went to Suzhou City, where Li's father learned to cook when he was young.

Subsequently, we rushed to Shanghai nearby.

First, he participated in the filming event at the headquarters of Dapingyang Insurance Company, and then participated in the fan meeting in Shanghai.

Interestingly, Li Lei's fans are all three-point lovers.

The first activity of the meeting was the three-point shooting.

Because it is an entertainment activity, the difficulty is not high, Li Lei has a perfect score in almost every round, as accurate as a machine.

But the fans were excited and even called Li Lei the NBA's top scorer!

At the end of the trip to Shanghai, the team headed straight to the capital.

After the meeting in the capital, Li Lei had to report to the national team.

……

This Olympics is different.

Because of the successful bid for the Olympic Games, it has been determined that China will host the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

So the purpose of the men's basketball team this time is to practice.

The players are mainly young people, and foreign coaches have also been hired.

The chairman and deputy directors of the team committee are Li Yuanwei and Hu Jiashi.

Team Leader: Kuang Lubin.

Technical Advisor: Jiang Xingquan.

Coaches: Adijiang, Min Lulei.

Foreign Head Coach: Dale Harris.

Foreign coach: Younas Kaslauskas.

Players:

Center: Yao Ming (24 years old), Battle (29 years old).

Power forwards: Wang Zhizhi (27 years old), Du Feng (23 years old), Yi Jianlian (17 years old), Mo Ke (22 years old).

Small forwards: Li Lei (19 years old), Li Nan (30 years old), Zhu Fangyu (21 years old).

Defenders: Liu Wei (24 years old), Guo Shiqiang (29 years old), Zhang Yunsong (27 years old)

The Chinese team has four NBA players, which also gives the entire men's basketball team a lot of confidence.

Because of the good relationship with Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, Li Lei quickly integrated into the team.

As for foreign teachers, that's not a problem.

Harris is the assistant coach of the Mavericks, and he has known Li Lei for a long time, and Li Lei, who has been to the United States since he was a child, has no problem communicating with Harris.

Don't forget, Li Lei has always been loved by coaches, Xiao Fan, Big Fan, Carlisle, Spo, Riley......

"Conquest" Harris is no problem.

Li Lei's excellent tactical execution ability is also the coach's favorite, which made Harris quickly fall in love with him.

……

On this morning, Yi Jianlian and Zhu Fangyu, the youngest members of the team, came to the stadium together.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Yao Ming and Li Lei sitting on the sidelines chatting.

It's just that the clothes of the two are already soaked, and they have obviously practiced for a long time before.

The four of them greeted each other, and Zhu Fangyu and Yi Jianlian trained.

Yao Ming and Li Lei are still chatting.

"Brother Yao, if Francis doesn't play next season, you can be the boss."

Li Lei joked.

Yao Ming shook his head with a wry smile, with an embarrassed expression.

"The team is so unstable, where can I play with peace of mind? And Steve ......"

Yao Ming still has feelings for Boss Fu.

Although Boss Fu plays alone, he is very righteous towards his teammates and takes care of Yao Ming.

Yao Ming didn't want to say more about this, so he changed the topic: "Your Heat team shouldn't have changed much, this season has reached the Eastern Finals." As long as you, Wade, and Odom all grow up, you might be able to break out of the East. ”

Yao Ming's face was full of envy.

Li Lei played in the Eastern Finals in his rookie season, and some people have never touched the floor of the division finals for the rest of their lives.

And the Heat team has a very good lineup, with high-quality players one by one: Li Lei, Wade, Haslem, Odom, Jones, Cato, Grant, Butler, Alstom...... All are high-quality assets.

In addition, Li Lei, Wade, and Butler are all rookie contracts, and the team's salary has not reached the point where it has to be cut.

It's easy to keep this lineup going.

In everyone's eyes, the Heat are not going to seek a trade.

"Looks like I'm going to play on the South Coast until I retire, and I'll be able to take you on vacation every summer!"

Li Lei said proudly.

The two chatted, but Zhu Fangyu and Yi Jianlian on the side were so absent-minded that their ears were about to come over.

Eventually, the two walked over.

Zhu Fangyu asked: "Brother Yao, stone, do you say that I have hope of entering the NBA?" ”

The shy Yi Jianlian didn't speak, but apparently had the same problem.

Yao Ming didn't answer, and looked at Li Lei.

Li Lei did not evade, and replied: "It's too much!" Da Zhu, you and I are the same type of players, and we are very popular in the NBA. ”

Zhu Fangyu was overjoyed.

Li Lei looked at Yi Jianlian again.

17-year-old Yi Jianlian suddenly became nervous.

"What ...... you?"

Yi Jianlian's toes were padded, his hands were clenched, and he was so nervous that he couldn't do it.

"Better than my talent!"

"Really?"

Yi Jianlian exclaimed excitedly.

After shouting, my whole face turned red, and I was too shy to do it.

Li Lei patted Yi Jianlian's shoulder.

Speaking of which, Yi Jianlian is the only one in the team who is smaller than Li Lei.

So Li Lei can joke with other people, but he must also maintain some respect.

Only for Yi Jianlian, Li Lei can be treated as a little brother and play wantonly.

"It's too early to say that. After the Olympics, I'll call a bunch of NBA friends to train in Miami, and you can come with me and see for yourself. ”

Last summer, Li Lei played with the Heat rookies, anti-NCAA unified league rookies, White Chocolate, Alstom, Crawford and others.

This summer, these hard-working guys won't be absent either.

"Da Zhu, if you have time, let's go with you."

Zhu Fangyu nodded excitedly.

Yao Ming suddenly said, "Add me one!" ”

Li Lei didn't even want to think about it: "Get out!" ”

"If you go, who will guard you? Do you want me to go and ask O'Neill? ”

Li Lei asked.

Yao Ming smiled bitterly, too tall, but also a kind of helplessness.

This is, of course, just a joke.

Li Lei's real intention was to let Yao Ming rest more.

This year's offseason is going to play the Olympics, and then go to training, for a big center like Yao Ming, it's like death.

In the playoffs, Li Lei talked to Yao Ming about it, and Yao Ming needed enough rest.

……

Li Lei devoted himself to the training of the national team.

But a few days later, an incident inevitably affected Li Lei.

On this day, Bill Duffy rushed directly into the arena and shouted at Li Lei: "Stone, you're going to play in Los Angeles!" ”

What？

Li Lei was stunned.

Subsequently, Duffy told Li Lei: O'Neal submitted a trade request, Pat Riley was the first to express his intention to get O'Neal, and the Lakers were also willing to trade with the Heat, naming Li Lei.

Li Lei: "Kobe's forced palace worked?" ”

Not only Li Lei, but everyone present thought so.

But Duffy smiled mysteriously before saying, "No, no, no! Things are not what you think. ”

After Kobe Bryant forced the palace, the Lakers management immediately began to coordinate the relationship between Kobe and O'Neal, and it made good progress.

But two days ago, O'Neal negotiated a contract extension with the Lakers, and he wanted to get a big contract with an annual salary of $30 million.

O'Neal is still the first man in the league, having just helped the Lakers build a dynasty and hopefully continue to win championships for the Lakers.

So, O'Neill feels like he's worthy of such a big contract.

However, Lakers management told O'Neal: "Sharks, wake up, no one is going to give a 33-year-old fat man $30 million a year." ”

In addition to this, Lakers management also hinted that O'Neal took the initiative to leave.

O'Neal felt insulted, but in order to save face, he offered to trade him instead of letting the Lakers trade him.

Duffy really has some abilities, and he can know these insiders.

If you don't know these insider stories, you will definitely think that Kobe Bryant squeezed O'Neal out.

But now it seems that it was the Lakers who gave up on O'Neal.

They felt that O'Neill was too old to deserve a contract with a maximum salary.

That's a business.

It's the same as the Mosaics sending away the elderly Olajuwon and the Knicks sending away the elderly Ewing, there is no difference.

"So this has nothing to do with Kobe?"

Li Lei asked.

Duffy shook his head: "The Lakers must have negotiated with Kobe." ”

"If Kobe Bryant is not willing to stay, how dare the Lakers offer to trade O'Neal?"

Therefore, Kobe Bryant knew about this and agreed with the Lakers to send O'Neal away.

He really wants to be the boss of the team!

The contradiction between Kobe and O'Neal is also real.

It's just that this reason is not the decisive factor.

The decisive factor was that the Lakers didn't want to give O'Neal a super big contract.

As for the Lakers wanting Li Lei, there is nothing to say about this.

All-Star Weekend, three-point contest, old Bass and Li Lei talked about this topic.

Old Bass seemed to like Li Lei very much at the time.

Duffy looked at Li Lei in deep thought, and asked puzzledly, "Stone, aren't you happy?" You'll be playing in the second largest city in the U.S. and you'll be able to reunite with your parents. ”

Li Lei shook his head, of course he was happy.

But there are also shocks.

Pat Riley is so bold.

Just reached the Eastern Finals, the lineup with unlimited potential, he said that he would dismantle it without the slightest hesitation.

Of course, trading is a long-term thing, and it's not like you say a deal and you have to trade it, but you have to talk about it round by round.

And it's not just the Heat who are willing to get O'Neal.

The Mavericks' Cuban threw an olive branch second.

With O'Neal, and a fart Dampier?

But the Lakers immediately rejected the Mavericks' application.

The unspoken rule of the league is that to trade a superstar, it's best to send him to the opposite side.

The Mavericks are one of the Lakers' main competitors in the West.

Isn't giving O'Neal to the Mavericks a rival?

So the Lakers' chosen trade partner is definitely the team in the East.

Over the course of a few days, the Lakers have been offered trade requests from a number of teams.

But it was the Heat who satisfied them the most.

No way, the Heat team has a lot of high-quality chips!

Wade and Li Lei are the twin stars, Odom is this year's All-Star, Butler is the best sixth man, Haslem is a high-quality blue-collar worker, Cato is a rare meat shield center, Grant still has oil, Jones is a former All-Star, and Alston is also a good rotation player.

The Lakers picked the eyes.
