NBA: One S-level skill per game

Chapter 142 Join the National Team ([-]-in-[-])

On the way back, Li Chen was obviously deep in thought. He didn't expect other teams to poach him so quickly.

But this situation is also normal. After all, in the finals without himself, the Clippers player can win a victory, which proves his strength.

At this moment, Li Chen's phone rang. He parked the Range Rover to the side of the road, then picked up the phone and saw that it was Odom.

Seeing this, Li Chen's heart skipped a beat, thinking, wouldn't this guy also be poached?

After a while, Li Chen pressed the answer button heavily.

After the call was answered, Li Chen did not make a sound, and neither did Odom on the opposite side.

After a while, Odom said: "I..."

Hearing Odom hesitate and hesitate for a long time, he knew what was going on. He felt complicated and sighed slightly: "Are you leaving too?"

After hesitating for a moment, he made up his mind and said, "Chen, as long as you say a word, I will stay."

Li Chen was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "You boy, that's enough for a buddy."

However, he has just felt Odom's hesitation, and he knows that the opposing team may offer a high price.

Thinking of this, Li Chen felt that he couldn't waste his brother's money for the sake of the championship and his own selfishness.

So he asked: "Which team wants to poach you, and how much annual salary will they pay?"

Hearing Li Chen's question, Odom sighed, "Chen, you also know that my rookie period this year has just ended, and then Riley, the coach and manager of the Heat, approached my agent. At that time, I didn't want to Leaving the Clippers..."

Li Chen rolled his eyes, "Then..."

"Then...then I opened my mouth to the lion, saying that I would not leave the Clippers without 1200 million, Falk, I never thought that the old guy Riley would agree."

Li Chen was a little surprised when he heard that the Heat offered Odom an annual salary of 1200 million. He thought, how could this guy be so popular.

However, Li Chen turned around and thought about it. Odom averaged more than 15 points per game in the playoffs, and he was also an all-around offensive and defensive warrior. In this way, players who can withstand the intensity of the playoffs can be favored by Riley. Nor is he exaggerated.

While his thoughts were wandering, Li Chen said angrily: "Forget it, you'd better get out!"

Odom was slightly stunned, and was a little moved in his heart. He knew that Li Chen didn't want to delay himself from making a lot of money.

But he still complained: "Fake, what do you mean, do you dislike me?"

Li Chen nodded, and said, "Yes! It's not easy for you to meet someone like Riley who has been taken advantage of by you! I mean, do you understand?"

Odom "..."

"Fuck, bastard, your mouth...really...Fuck." Odom didn't know how to describe it for a while.

Ignoring Odom's chatter, he asked himself: "By the way, Lamar, how many years is your contract?"

"Three years, what happened?"

"Tch, Lamar, you are too sloppy, Andre, but you got a six-year contract with an annual salary of tens of millions."

Hearing this, Odom was a little surprised, and then asked in surprise: "Andre is leaving too?"

"Hmm!" Li Chen said in a low voice.

Seeing that his teammates who had been sitting for a season were about to leave, he felt really uncomfortable.

Damn Donald Sterling is so stingy, if he could be more generous, his teammates wouldn't leave one after another.

At this moment, it was decided that the Clippers could not remain a team and let Alvin Gentry regain the championship position...

Li Chen thought of another thing while his thoughts were wandering, "By the way, Lamar, your bet against the Spurs was still fulfilled. Let me tell you, don't even think about escaping."

"No problem." Odom said grandly.

Now he is also a person who makes a lot of money, and he doesn't feel bad about treats or anything.

Afterwards, Li Chen called all the Clippers players, which was considered a farewell ceremony.

Los Angeles is world-famous for its vibrant and rich nightlife.

The city not only has breathtaking natural landscapes, but also has bred countless creative and diverse nightclub venues, elites and socialites provide excellent places to go.

When night falls and neon signs light up the city, Los Angeles nightclubs reveal an unrivaled buzz around every corner.

From trendy bars to upscale dance clubs, whether you're looking for a place to relax or unwind, there's always a nightclub that suits you best.

When he stepped into the nightclub, Li Chen was surrounded by a rush of beautiful music that made his heart beat faster.

The intoxicating aroma fills the air, and the bartenders are using their skill and creativity to mix intoxicating cocktails one after another.

People are dancing tight rhythmic steps under the charming lights, communicating and sharing happiness with each other.

Los Angeles nightclubs are known for their diverse styles, catering to a variety of musical tastes and aesthetic preferences.

Whether your leanings are pop, techno or rock, there's a music venue that's right for you.

In addition, the nightclub also hosts various themed parties and special events, such as themed dance parties, star DJ performances and fashion shows, further adding to the charm of the nightclub culture.

LA nightclubs are more than just places of entertainment, they are also important platforms for social and cultural exchange.

Here you can meet, communicate and form new friendships with people from all over the world.

These nightclubs attract people from all walks of life, including artists, musicians, creatives and socialites with unique tastes, resulting in a vibrant and creative social circle.

Li Chen frowned. It was his first time coming to a nightclub and he was a little uncomfortable with the noisy atmosphere.

"Chen, how do you feel? It's not bad here! Once you come here, you will fall in love with him." Odom yelled loudly with a smirk on Li Chen's ear.

"It's too noisy here." Li Chen responded loudly to Odom.

Odom "..."

He doesn't even know what to say about Li Chen, if the nightclub is not noisy, is it still called a nightclub?

Later, more than ten of them found a place to sit around, and each ordered a cocktail.

After a while, this group of teammates couldn't wait, "Chen, let's go to the dance floor to dance, maybe we can meet a female star!" Odom invited.

Li Chen waved his hand and said: "I can't dance, you can play!"

Seeing that Li Chen didn't want to dance, his teammates didn't force it. Odom, Corey Maggette, Elton Brand and others all merged into the dance floor. In the blink of an eye, only Li Chen and Li Chen were left in the seats. Wang Zhizhi.

"Brother Big Zhi, don't you want to play?" Li Chen turned his head and shouted at Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi shook his head and said, "No, actually I don't know how to dance either."

Li Chen picked up the cocktail in front of him, raised it at Wang Zhizhi, and then took a sip himself.

Wang Zhizhi also raised the wine glass in his hand, and the two drank each other.

Li Chen asked: "Brother Da Zhi, is there any team poaching you?"

Wang Zhizhi thought for a while and said: "The Heat asked my agent if he had any intention of leaving the Clippers, but I refused."

At this moment, Wang Zhizhi asked, "Li Chen, when are you going back to China?"

"Soon, Skechers has a 10-day event, and then, I have to go home and have a look."

"What about you? Brother Big Zhi." Li Chen asked back.

"I... I won't go back if I don't. I have to train hard this summer and strive for the starting position next season."

Li Chen thought about it, and was about to speak.

But Wang Zhizhi refused without waiting for him to speak out: "Li Chen, I think with my own strength, I appreciate your kindness."

Li Chen thought for a moment and then nodded, "Come on."

Wang Zhizhi nodded with a smile.

Odom and others came back after playing for an hour.

After a while, Li Chen probably understood the situation of the Clippers, that is, Odom and Andre Miller decided to leave.

Li Chen stood up, and the other players also stood up.

Li Chen and other players raised their cocktails and said, "I wish Lamar, Andre, the best of luck."

Then... everyone cheers together.

On July 7th, Li Chen returned to China. He first went to Shenzhen, then to Shanghai, and finally to the capital.

Li Chen had just returned to the hotel where he was staying when a blonde beauty walked in. Her name was Lianna, and she was Li Chen's personal secretary provided by Skechers.

At this time, Lian Na walked in and said, "Mr. Li Chen, your country's basketball association is here to see you, look..." Lian Na asked in standard Chinese.

The corners of Li Chen's mouth curled up, he thought that those arrogant elders looked down on him as a stinky player.

So Li Chen said: "Wait for them to come in."

After a while, Lian Na walked in with a man in his 30s wearing glasses and a middle-aged man in his 50s or [-]s.

After seeing the two people entering, Li Chen stood up in a timely manner. Then, the middle-aged man wearing glasses adjusted his glasses and introduced, "My surname is Wang. You can call me Brother Wang."

As he spoke, he introduced the person next to him again: "This is Comrade Li Yaguang, our newly appointed Vice Chairman of the Basketball Association."

Hearing this name, Li Chen was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look at it.

At this time, Li Yaguang laughed loudly, and then said to Yourong: "Xiaochen, our people have seen your performance, you are the pride of our people!"

Li Chen smiled shyly, scratched his head, and said solemnly: "It's my duty, Mr. Li, to win glory for the country, and I should do everything."

Of course, the premise is that you don't hit your own bad attention.Li Chen silently added in his heart.

Hearing this, Li Yaguang's eyes lit up, his smile became wider, and at the same time, he became more amiable.

"Okay! Xiaochen, that's good. Now I have an opportunity for you to reimburse the country. Are you willing?"

"Of course." Li Chen nodded solemnly.

The middle-aged man named Wang immediately took out a contract without Li Yaguang's instructions. This was a contract to join the national team.

"Xiaochen, this is a contract to join the national team. As long as you sign, you are a member of the national team. In September, you can wear the national team uniform and fight for the country."

The voice of the middle-aged man with glasses is full of emotion, and he said very contagiously.

Then handed over the contract.

Li Chen nodded excitedly, and took the contract in his hand.

After half an hour...

After Li Chen went home for a few days, he continued to train.

In August, the roster of the national men's basketball team was released. The head coach, Jiang Xingquan,
Team list: Li Chen, Yao Ming, Battelle, Cui Jian, Li Ke, Du Feng, Zhu Fangyu, Zhang Jinsong, Li Nan, Sun Jun, Fan Bin, Guo Shiqiang.

Then came the month-long training of tactics.

During this period, I was impressed by Li Chen's strength. These players in the CBA finally knew what it meant to be Jordan's successor.

Li Chen really played them as if they were playing, at this moment they finally knew the gap between them and NBA players.

At the same time, seeing Li Chen's strength, head coach Jiang Xingquan understood Alvin Gentry's tactical principles without any instruction, which was to give Li Chen that damn basketball.

On this day, in the afternoon, Li Chen continued to practice, and Yao Ming did not leave.

An hour later, they were all lying on the floor.

Li Chen pretended to be unintentional and asked: "Brother Yao, did you leave the Rockets after your rookie period?"

Yao Ming frowned, then shook his head and said, "Li Chen, I have no intention of leaving the Rockets."

Li Chen nodded, thinking to himself, as expected, Yao Ming will not leave the Rockets just like in history.

However, I am the man who fooled Kobe Bryant, so I can't fool you, an honest little Yao Ming?
So he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Yao Ming's slightly embarrassed face became even more embarrassed, and it took him a long time to say: "Since the Rockets chose me, I can't let them down."

"So you're not planning to leave the Rockets?"

"Yes, how about you?"

Li Chen thought for a while and said, "When will I win the championship and when will I leave the Clippers?"

Yao Ming didn't understand Li Chen's approach, "Li Chen, isn't the Clippers bad?"

Li Chen thought for a while and said: "I stayed with the Clippers solely to repay coach Alvin Gentry for being able to withstand the pressure and let me play. You know, in my situation, the team coach usually won't give it." I have a chance, so I'm going to get him an O'Brien Cup."

After thinking about it, Li Chen added: "If possible, maybe two."

"As for the others, you must have heard that Donald Sterling is a famous miser in the circle. I don't like the feeling of changing the main teammate all the time."

Of course, this is under the circumstances of his approval, he silently added in his heart.

Yao Ming smiled bitterly. He really knew about this. Bill Duffy told him that one of the teams he couldn't go to was the Clippers. The reason was that the owner of the Clippers was too stingy.

At this moment, Li Chen suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Brother Yao, why did you go abroad to play?"

Yao Ming was taken aback by the question, and then subconsciously said: "To win glory for the country, to prove yourself, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Li Chen snickered in his heart. He was sure and certain that Yao Ming could use crutches.

He didn't answer Yao Ming's words, but asked again: "Do you know how we can win glory for our country?"

Yao Ming thought for a while and tried to ask: "Show results and let the fans of the United States recognize it, just like you."

Yao Ming also watched Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals. He was in tears during the last [-] minutes.That's the proof he wanted.

"No, our proof is winning the championship, you know? The championship is the best proof."

Yao Ming was stunned for a moment, then looked forward to it, and finally said: "As long as you are there, we, the Rockets..."

However, before Yao Ming could finish speaking, he was interrupted sharply by Li ChenBenz.
