I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 79 Sports and Entertainment Center (Part [-])
After the Clippers players played against the Jazz yesterday, they flew back to Los Angeles overnight.

Then I went home to rest, everyone slept until noon, and went to the training center to practice for an hour in the afternoon.

The game will continue in the evening, and the opponent is the visiting Dallas Mavericks.

Mike Dunleavy was speechless about the league's schedule for the new season.

Four matches in five days, with only one day of rest between two consecutive back-to-backs.

In order to arrange the schedule, I really don't treat the Clippers players as human beings.

Fortunately, the season has just started, and the health status of the team is acceptable.

And because they just took away a victory in Salt Lake City yesterday, the morale of the team is very strong.

At 07:30 in the evening, the Staples Center has already changed the floor of the Clippers to welcome the Mavericks.

At the beginning of the Clippers season, these opponents are relatively strong. In addition to the defending champion Lakers, the Suns, Jazz, and Mavericks are all Western Conference powerhouses in recent years and regular visitors to the playoffs.

But the good news is that these teams are in a period of decline, and there are injuries in the team.

The Clippers' two victories more or less took advantage of the opponent's injury problems.

In this game against the Mavericks, the opponent also has an important player absent due to injury, that is, their small forward Josh Howard.

After the Mavericks were overturned in the 2006 Finals, in 2007 when they swept everything in the regular season, they encountered the most painful black eight in history and were eliminated by the Warriors.

It's been a bit of a letdown ever since.

In the 08 Cuban trade, Harris was traded for Jason Kidd from the Nets.

As a result, he was beaten by Chris Paul in the first round of the playoffs and was easily killed 1:4.

In 09, the Mavericks made a comeback in the first round, killing their old rival, the Spurs, who were also in decline.

As a result, in the second round, they were beaten again by the Nuggets led by Anthony and Billups. It was another 1:4, and they were beaten without any ability to resist.

The cattle and horse days that once ran wild in the West seem to have declined overnight. Old guys like Duncan, Nowitzki, and Nash are about to be swept into the trash by the young forces.

But regardless of whether they are going to be swept into the garbage dump, the Clippers should first find a way to get out of the garbage dump.

After the meeting in the morning, Min Congda decided to open a restaurant. In the evening, he came to the Staples Center to inspect the food and beverage situation in the center.

For Americans, coming to the arena to watch football is not just about watching sports games, it is more of a social activity.

In the evening after a working day, you can drive to the sports center with family, friends and enjoy hours of entertainment and relaxation.

Many fans came at five or six o'clock, because the sports center not only has a competition venue, but also many entertainment facilities.

Shooting machines, star handprints, peripheral stores, game arcades, and of course, restaurants and restaurants.

If you don't want to cook at home, or find it troublesome to go to other places to eat, you can go directly to the sports center to eat.

After eating and playing enough, watch a game with family and friends. The result of the game is not so important, but the process is important.

There will be many interactive activities in more than two hours, including halftime show, cheerleading, mascot performance and so on.

If you feel hungry while watching the game, you can order a hamburger, a side of French fries, or a box of fried chicken at any time. You can happily eat while watching the game, and relax with your family and friends. When the game ends and it gets dark, you can leave the field and go home to rest , had a very good night.

Construction of the Staples Center began in 1998 and was put into use in 1999. The Lakers won their first championship in the 21st century here.

Then, the Lakers created three consecutive championships here, and opened the glorious curtain of the first decade of the Zijin Army in the 21st century.

In addition to the Lakers and Clippers games, it is also the home of the WNBA Los Angeles Sparks and the NHL Los Angeles Kings. It also hosts concerts and boxing matches.

Klitschko, the Ukrainian iron fist doctor, once fought against the British boxing champion Lewis here, and the fight was extremely tragic.

The memorial service for Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, was also held at the Staples Center.

In short, this is the center of sports and entertainment in Los Angeles. It is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of land is expensive. The rent of opening a restaurant here will definitely not be low, and the competition must be very fierce.

There are more than 20 flavors of popcorn sold here alone. Of course, Min Congda doesn’t know if it’s delicious or not.

I wandered around the restaurant, mainly American-style hamburgers, fried chicken, and cola. These fast foods have very strong viability.

Not only in the United States, but also in China on the other side of the ocean, the foreign fast food based on the three-piece set of fried chicken, French fries, and Coke has already taken root, and chain stores have been opened all over the country, and some large towns have their presence.

"Competing with these fried chicken burger fast food in the United States, you must die a miserable death."

"After all, the biggest advantage of these fried chicken burger restaurants is not the taste, but the high-quality quality control, good sanitary conditions, fast food delivery speed, and the advantage of large quantities."

"Most people come to the center to watch the game and have a light meal. If they want to eat specifically, they will not eat in Staples. So setting up a high-end restaurant here will definitely not have a future, but will soon Losing money. Take a look, look around, and come down in a big circle, they are all fried chicken and burger restaurants, there must be a reason!"

After a brief investigation, Min Congda bought popcorn, hamburgers, and French fries at a store. Like many fat Americans, he went to watch the game while drinking Coke and nibbling on hamburgers.

"It's not very tasty, damn it, it's a bit expensive, it's just like domestic deception..."

……

The evening game started on time, and there was a lengthy opening ceremony before the game. Both sides played, and then someone was asked to sing the national anthem.

Every time the national anthem is sung, the pattern is different. There are different styles for different people. There are tens of thousands of sports events held in the United States every year. The song "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls" will be ruined many times.

It's not because Americans want to spoil the national anthem because they are unrestrained and free, but because this song is too fucking difficult to sing. It would be a god if you can finish it without dropping the key. There are many car accidents on the scene, and it is often on the entertainment news.

The starting lineup of the two sides, Maverick Nowitzki, "second center" Dampier, Marion, Kidd plus Quentin Rose.

For the Clippers, there are still Baron Davis, Curry, Randolph, Kaman and Thornton. At the same time, Ricky Davis did not enter the team roster due to injuries.

What puzzled Min Congda was that the arena's attendance seemed to be good tonight. What was the reason?
Rosser had wanted to tell him about the overselling of team tickets in the morning, but he forgot about it because he was talking about the restaurant project.

Ada did not accompany Min Congda to watch the game tonight. Without this little spy, Min Congda would be confused about many things.

"Hey, as many as you can, there are still a lot of vacancies. Let's watch the game and see if we can get 2000 yuan tonight."
