From sparring to superstar

Chapter 131 129. Thanksgiving gift?Just give me a baby!

After a night of rest, Schwartz came to the hospital early the next morning to help him complete the discharge procedures.

Leaving the hospital, the two first came to the Memorial Stadium.

After the Clippers received the penalty decision, they appealed according to the procedure and held a press conference today.

The NBA officially characterized it as a post-match brawl. Clippers general manager Wally Walker spent a few seconds at the press conference apologizing for the negative impact of Li Ao's fight with his opponent, and then spent 10 minutes following the official denunciation of Kurt Thomas for a malicious foul.

Finally, Wally Walker announced Li Ao's injuries. Concussions, ankle and wrist sprains, and elbow injuries were all fine, but they were all mentioned.

Li Ao did not go to the press conference, he came here to accept an exclusive interview with Yahoo Sports.

These days, the usage of Yahoo.com in the U.S. is about equal to that of Baidu in China at its peak. Its current market value exceeds US$1200 billion, and it is the top Internet company in the world.

Its subsidiary Yahoo Sports is currently the most trafficked online media on the Internet.

The Clippers accepted this interview and attached great importance to it.

The interview went smoothly. This time, the reporter's questions were not biased. They asked some routine questions normally, and Li Ao answered them seriously.

After the interview, Li Ao had nothing to do. His teammates left Los Angeles for Toronto yesterday.

What a coincidence, the Clippers have 7 guests and 6 home in the next 1 games, and there will be a wave of 6 consecutive away.

The opponents are the Raptors, Celtics, Knicks, Wizards, Hornets, Timberwolves, and then return to the home court to play the Lakers.

Li Ao is not particularly regretful that he can't play against the Knicks in the away game. Several opponent players are also suspended or hospitalized, but it is still quite painful not to be able to play against Carter, Pierce, Garnett and others.

Nothing to do, then train!

Li Ao came to the locker room to change his training clothes, opened the closet, and he was stunned.

There are a lot of things in it!All with names!

There are game consoles, sunglasses, baseball bats... and boxing gloves?Knuckles……

What the hell is a mace?

In the minds of his teammates, he is the image of carrying a mace?

Li Ao learned from Schwartz that his teammates were very moved.

The live TV broadcast and the subsequent news were all released. He watched his teammates walk away before going to Kurt Thomas to 'fight'.

People in the management also have a headache about his fighting, but they are also full of praise for him avoiding his teammates in fighting and not letting his teammates be implicated.

In fact, this matter is nothing special to him personally. Why did he drag his teammates to be 'buried' with his grievances?
If his teammates are bullied, he will stand out, that is his choice.

It is also his choice not to drag his teammates into trouble.

It has nothing to do with anything else.

But he was also touched by the positive emotional feedback from his teammates.

But, this mace, he just wanted to know who gave it to him!

...

Li Ao practiced the fadeaway jump shot all day, and the demand for strong shots in the game was more than expected when he entered the NBA.

Take advantage of the time being suspended now, practice more.

I don't know how the crotch strain on the Afro's side is recovering. It mainly depends on Mrs. Wa. The Afro's physical fitness is good, and the recovery is usually very fast.

He wants to go to Kobe to play more experience packs, and strive to practice the fadeaway jumper to the passing line as soon as possible.

The back jump shot is a good way to reduce the interference of the confrontation. If it is used well, the opponent above the waist cannot be touched when shooting. Even if the take-off is affected during the confrontation, it can guarantee the force to a large extent.

If the opponent presses up to interfere with the shot and touches the leg, it is a foul.

It's a pity that before 04, kicking shots would be called offensive fouls, otherwise you can try to develop the silver horn king's tricks first.

Now, let's practice Nash's back lie.

In the evening, after training, Li Ao found the middle-aged Sao Nan and gave him a ride home.

After the opening game, the next game of the pac10 league will have to wait until after Thanksgiving, and Henry Bibby has nothing to do these two days.

Henry Bibby looked reluctant but quickly helped Li Ao to pack a large cardboard box of presents into the car.

Different from Li Ao's self-awareness, Henry Bibby saw Li Ao's teammate giving him a mace, and thought it was too appropriate.

Carrying the gift upstairs, Li Ao saw that the house assistant's auntie's light was on, and walked over to open the door. There was really someone there!

Seeing Li Ao came back, Vivian immediately went up to help carry the things into the house.

"Why do you buy these things? Didn't you just buy this game console? This stick...for self-defense?"

"A gift from my teammates. I heard that they wanted to send it to the hospital, but the team didn't allow it, so I put it in the locker room. Do you have anything you want?"

"Let me see, I like these sunglasses..."

Vivienne picked two at random, and they exchanged gifts. This is normal in the United States. You may receive a gift that you sent out before any holiday.

Li Ao washed his hands before entering, and asked, "Aunt Vivian, didn't you go back to San Francisco for Thanksgiving on a long vacation?"

"This is my house! You drive me away? Which 18-year-old girl do you want to have sex with?"

Li Ao: (_)
"Hoohoo, I won't go back this year, I will spend Christmas Eve with you, how about it, are you touched?"

Li Ao nodded quickly, even if it was Thanksgiving, it was still a holiday, and it was quite lonely and cold to live alone.

Vivian put the things back into the box and pushed them aside, thinking of one thing: "By the way, Mary called me after she knew you were injured, and said that the consulate contacted her and your father to apply for visas for them, and they will come together next New Year's Eve."

"The people in the US consulate are really dogs..."

After complaining a bit, Li Ao was still very happy, thinking about buying a few sets of expensive clothes for his parents and some gifts to take home.

He sent a lot of money back, but based on his understanding of the two elders, they would never spend it on him.

But he has made money, and he has to let his relatives and friends in his hometown know, otherwise it is not for nothing.

...

After cooking and eating, after dinner, Li Ao read newspapers, watched TV, and went online to learn about the aftermath of the fight.

He heard some things from Liam and Schwartz in bits and pieces before, but he still didn't understand much.

He saw that the public opinion was not one-sided, some spoke for him, and some criticized him.

But generally speaking, most people speak for him.

And most of those who criticized him also sprayed the Knicks or specially sprayed Kurt Thomas.

Criminals, fighting and losing, seven against one and even losing, the 'Gangs of New York' was ridiculed miserably this time.

The most ruthless laugh at the Knicks is undoubtedly the New York media.

They even posted a photo of Spider-Man to Li AoP in the news, with the text——executing justice.

What makes Li Ao most interesting is that American cable TV sports are all talking about the Knicks.

Although the US cable system bought the Knicks from the Western Mining Company for US$1994 billion in 11, and then sold all the shares of the team to James Dolan for US$1997 million in 3000, legally speaking, the US cable system has nothing to do with the Knicks, and the bankruptcy and liquidation will not affect each other.

But both owners are James Dolan, the Knicks game, the US cable system broadcasts almost every game.

This belongs to the left foot stepping on the right foot.

But there's one person who's been ridiculed more than Kurt Thomas -- Madman.

He was so tough when he locked the head coach, and when he met a real ruthless person, he was too scared to move for a long time.

After learning about the public opinion situation in the past two days, Li Ao felt strange.

In this fight, he actually made a positive image!

In fact, he just wanted revenge...

...

On the next day, November 11th, two days had passed since the fight, and the news was about to cool down when it was brought up again.

James Dolan is doing it again!
The NBA's official punishment defined the matter as a 'court brawl', and the Ministry of Justice recognized this matter, and Li Ao was spared the trouble of being publicly investigated by the New York or Los Angeles Justice Bureau.

But James Dolan filed a civil lawsuit against Li Ao and the NBA in a New York court.

When Li Ao and Liam made an appointment to play games in the afternoon, he said puzzledly, "Is Dolan out of his mind? He has been ridiculed so badly, and he still thinks it's not enough?"

Liam shook his index finger and said, "NONONONONO, he's not stupid. I heard that the Knicks' home ticket price has increased again, and the ratings of the sports channel of the US cable system have also increased. The more people laugh at them, the more people will watch their games and news, and he can make more money."

Li Ao spit out a sentence, and asked: "Are capitalists so shameless?"

Liam: "I feel like you're calling me..."

James Dolan sued Li Ao in the name of the Knicks for the sake of popularity.

The impact of this on Li Ao...he also maintained his enthusiasm.

Soon, University of Southern California Board of Trustees Pete, authorized by the school board, made a public statement on behalf of USC, and USC will represent Li Ao to accept the lawsuit against the Knicks.

Li Ao doesn't need to worry about this.

Moreover, according to the Yingjiang family's regulations on minors and sports laws, if it really comes to the point of going to court, Li Ao can even choose not to attend.

In this regard, Li Ao complained about another hot topic, which was the university he was studying at.

Very shit!
The longer the time, the more interested parties involved in it, and the controversy over Li Ao's fight became more and more serious.

His evaluation of "revenge after the event" began to tilt in a bad direction.

He kicked Jeff Van Gundy and was also criticized.

The Knicks also took this to make a fuss, saying that he hit their head coach.

But after the video of Li Ao's interview with Yahoo Sports was broadcast on TV, the sympathy that the Knicks and Jeff Van Gundy had just received was torn to pieces...

"I'm a big-hearted person, but I will never forgive someone who has disrespect, disrespect for sportsmanship.

He fouled me like that, and if he apologized, I wouldn't hit him.

But did he apologize?

It’s been a long time since I’ve been back on the court, but he still hasn’t apologized, and he still looks at me with smug eyes, as if he’s done something great, oh, I understand, his kind of small role, being able to get in the news by viciously fouling me is indeed the greatest and most proud thing he can do in his life.

His teammates are not good things either. I waited until the game was over to give them enough respect on the court, but I wanted to teach a court violent person a lesson, and they wanted to beat me up. I had no choice but to defend myself. "

"Is Van Gundy protecting the players? I don't think he is just helping his players fight. Imagine if a Knicks player hit me and my feet were hugged by him and I couldn't escape, what would I do?
His behavior doesn't make me respect, it just makes me sick.

If I get hugged by him and I get hit, he's just an accomplice.

He's just trying to help his team beat me up. "

...

Li Ao's clear, logical, and well-founded answers in the interview put all the pressure on the Knicks and Jeff Van Gundy.

Rao Dolan is thick-skinned, and he couldn't hold back this time.

On November 11, the afternoon when the Clippers came to New York, the Knicks fired Jeff Van Gundy on the grounds that he mismanaged internally, and withdrew the application for prosecution, bringing the 'Spiderman One-on-Seven' incident to an end.

But the Knicks have had enough of this wave of enthusiasm, and if they continue to entangle, it will really become a soap opera.

On Li Ao's side, he put this matter aside a long time ago and hurried to train.

He called Kobe for two days, and finally shook Kobe out this afternoon to train together.

Kobe's crotch ligament strain has actually almost recovered, but Zen Master was too cautious in this regard and let him rest until after Thanksgiving before returning.

The first time he received a call from Li Ao, he refused, and the second time he also refused, but it was only three things. He was worried that Li Ao would not call him if he refused again, so he replied "see you at 4 o'clock" when he received the call.

With Li Ao's exaggerated static physical condition, online dynamic physical condition, solid defensive basic skills, good defensive attitude and talent as a partner, Kobe practiced a few more times, and he was reluctant to lose.

Is there a better training partner for singles than this?
Li Ao regards Kobe as an "experienced baby", and at the same time exercises one-on-one defense at medium and long distances.

Both get what they need.

After practicing for two days, Li Ao 'hit' to 4 points of fadeaway jumper experience and 1 point of emergency stop jumper experience.

On the 23rd, Kobe was going to accompany Vanessa today and did not come to training. Li Ao practiced fadeaway jumpers and pull-up jumpers for a day by himself, and quickly digested these experiences.

The fallback has not yet been improved to pass, the basic skills of emergency stop have been improved to 74, and the emergency stop jump shot has also been improved to 73.

Li Ao finished his training at 4:[-] p.m. and returned to the apartment early to prepare dinner.

Prepare meals with the hospital assistant aunt, although the other party can only pass things, but still makes Li Ao feel that this is his happiest meal preparation time.

It feels much better when people like Liam and Joshua who are really good at helping out help.

Li Ao was happy to cook the meal. He was also very happy to see the auntie eating very deliciously. It was the turkey that only had two bites on the dining table... It was a bit of a waste of food, but neither of them could eat it.

After the meal, Li Ao played games on the big TV at the courtyard's aunt's house, and it was late at night before he knew it.

Seeing that the hospital assistant had come out of the shower, Li Ao turned off the game console and TV, said hello, and was about to go back to his small apartment to wash and sleep...but was stopped.

After drinking some wine and taking a bath again, Vivienne blushed, and she was still stalwart even though she was half wrapped in a bath towel... Li Ao's heart beat faster.

Vivien pushed Li Ao back to the sofa and sat down, and said, "Leo, today is Thanksgiving, and you didn't even give me a gift!"

"Uh..." Li Ao looked away and said, "I forgot, what gift do you want, I will buy it! Don't worry, I have money now!"

"My family has always said that I am not married and have no children. I want a child!"

"I want a child, I think about where I can buy it..."

Li Ao's mind was in a mess, and he replied subconsciously, and suddenly realized: "What? Want a child?"

At this time, Vivienne's bath towel fell off...

"hiss……"

Li Ao gasped.

Auntie pink!

Thirty thousand words are omitted here.

Early the next morning, Li Ao woke up and looked at the strange ceiling. After all, he rolled the sheets on this bed.

Looking at the auntie who was drooling at the corner of her mouth, he couldn't hold back the quilt.

Tsk tsk, it's still so pink.

He stretched out his hand... was grabbed by Vivienne, and then hugged... I couldn't bear it anymore!
Soon, Vivienne's coquettish cry sounded: "I'm still sleeping, what are you doing...wait a minute...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Thirty thousand words are omitted here.

In the evening, Li Ao returned to the apartment after training.

While eating dinner, he used the physiotherapy function of the body and regained his strength.

After clearing the dining table, Li Ao asked the auntie assistant: "Has the child been delivered?"

Vivian blushed, but put on a serious face: "I don't think it should be that easy. There is no rush for this kind of thing, take your time."

"I also think that we need to study this matter slowly... Then Vivienne, you are my girlfriend now, right?"

"Auntie, I don't want to be your girlfriend. I just want a child of yours. I don't like others, but I like you, Leo, so I choose you."

Li Ao: (⊙_⊙)?
Vivienne loosened her belt and said, "I'm 31 years old, and you're only 19 years old. If I'm your girlfriend, how shameless am I?"

Li Ao: (O_o)??
Wouldn't it be much better not to be a girlfriend and have a child?

What kind of eagle sauce logic is this?

Just when Li Ao was asking questions, Vivienne rode on his lap again and said, "Let's continue to create life! I plan to have three children. I'm 31 years old. I can't afford it if I don't hurry up."

Li Ao's attention shifted, but he caught a strange point and asked, "Why three?"

"I want both a son and a daughter, but one daughter may not be able to beat my son in a fight, so I plan to have two daughters..."

"Uh... Auntie, wait a minute, it's not advisable to exercise right after a meal!"

"Then let's take a shower..."

……

……

In a flash, the time came to the end of November.

Li Ao trained for a few more days, and his relationship with the hospital assistant was still the same, but when no one was around, the two would 'create life' together.

At first, he thought it was just the auntie assistant who was embarrassed because of the age gap, but one day, the auntie assistant who couldn't bear it after working hard for several days invited Jessica to the apartment for dinner, and handed him some saliva pockets after the meal...

Regarding the hospital assistant's aunt who only shoots and is not responsible for the operation, Li Ao felt ashamed at first, but then...he thought it was pretty good, anyway, they have been living together all the time, and they are not afraid of people running away.

On the evening of the 30th, Li Ao watched the live broadcast of the local TV station at home, their game against the Lakers.

83 to 96 lost.

7场比赛，2胜5负，战绩从6胜3负变成了8胜8负，惨得一哔！
Lost against the Raptors, Celtics, Hornets, and Timberwolves, and only won the Knicks with multiple main suspensions, and the second-to-last Wizards in the East.

This record was not beyond Li Ao's expectations.

The most important tactics of the team's tactics are all built around him.

Although he also has his tactics during the break, once the opponent's defensive strength comes up, it is easy to fall into chaos.

No, playing the Lakers tonight is just 55 points in three quarters.

However, in the miserable defeat, he saw a bright spot!
Their defense is tight! In 7 games, only 1 time allowed the opponent to score more than 3 points, and only 95 times the opponent scored more than [-] points!
