Meow Ba

Chapter 302 Halfway through the game

"Fasten your seatbelts, we're leaving soon."

Naturally, Lorraine was not the only one who got the ticket benefits this time, and the colleagues in the criminal department of the Santa Monica Police Department basically got one.

Except for a few police officers who were older and had families and said they wanted to go see it with their children, the rest of the criminal team got on Jordan's off-road vehicle and prepared to organize a group to go to the Staples Center.

However, before departure, the criminal team leader Jordan confirmed that everyone was wearing seat belts before starting the car and driving out of the underground garage of the Santa Monica Police Department-in most states in the United States, not wearing seat belts is considered a crime. Major violations, once discovered by the highway patrol, may range from a verbal warning to a fine plus XX hours of community service.

Two years ago, the governor of New Jersey, Kozan, was injured in a car accident because he was not wearing a seat belt in a patrol car. After he recovered, Governor Kozan not only voluntarily paid the fine, but also cooperated with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to shoot a public welfare short film , Propagating the dangers of driving without seat belts.

Jordan's car was full of police officers. It would be a big joke if he was punished by the highway patrol for such a trivial matter, or even accidentally found and stabbed by a reporter.

The off-road vehicle moved forward steadily, and the group was on Lorraine's knees. Ron looked up at the front - when a huge building full of sci-fi style, like an alien UFO appeared in his eye sockets, Ron knew that his destination had arrived.

Because the building in front of you is the Staples Center, the most famous arena in the Los Angeles area.

The Staples Center is located in the center of Los Angeles. It started construction in 2 and was officially completed and developed in October [-]. The total cost is [-] million U.S. dollars and the maximum capacity is [-] people. It is the only one in the United States. Two NBA teams: the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers share the arena as their home stadium, and there is also an NHL team and a WNBA team that use the Staples Center as their home stadium.

In 2000 and [-], Staples Arena was awarded the title of "Arena of the Year" twice.

…………

"Hurry up, the game is about to start."

When Jordan's off-road vehicle arrived at the parking lot of the Staples Center, it was already around six o'clock, and it was too late to have a big meal, because the start time on the ticket was seven o'clock - NBA games are usually at seven o'clock in the evening in the United States later.

People are busy with work during the day, and playing games at night can attract more people after busy work to watch the game and relax, and also allow more people to watch the live broadcast at home - the NBA is a commercial basketball game, Ratings and box office revenue are the basis for the existence of the league. It can be said that holding games at night is the foundation for the virtuous cycle of the entire NBA league.

"Ow~"

The taste is not bad, although it can't compare with Robert's.

Hugging the hot dog that Lorraine handed over, Ron took a big bite and munched contentedly - he bought a few hot dogs at a hot dog shop on the side of the road, and the Santa Monica group immediately walked towards the Staples Center. Entrance.

This is the first time for Ron to watch a football game. While gnawing on a hot dog, he opened his eyes wide, watching the flow of people on the parking lot slowly gathering, and then joined the fans brought by the light rail and buses, and walked into the stadium together. Museum entrance.

This is a Los Angeles derby, the Lakers vs. Clippers. Above the entrance of the arena where the Santa Monica police department walked in, a banner of "Lakers Going Forward" was hung high, and the electronic display board was constantly scrolling Los Angeles Lakers The glorious history of entering the finals and winning the championship in history.

And at the front of the arena entrance is the statue of Magic Johnson. The magician on the statue holds the ball with one hand, jumps high, and skillfully leaves his opponent behind.

…………

The game started. Although the atmosphere of the game was not as tense as the Lakers and Celtics, it was definitely not much better, and in a certain way, the atmosphere of the game was even worse.

This is a game that has been exaggerated by the media. The Lakers are a traditional strong team in Los Angeles, and the Clippers have made a good start this year. The Southern California Derby is a more enduring, and more appealing icon.

"Kobe~~~! Three points!"

"Kobe~~~! Fadeback jumper!"

"Kobe~~~! Back up singles!"

The top star of the Lakers, Kobe Bryant, switched to a personal offensive mode from the very beginning of the game. He was full of energy and suppressed the Los Angeles Clippers. Every time he scored, the audience cheered.

"Meow~"

nice shot!
Ron's eyes chased after Kobe, and every time Kobe had a wonderful performance, Ron would meow—this surprised Lorraine's colleagues, they had never seen a cat that seemed as capable as Ron. Understand basketball games.

Although in fact, Ron can really understand basketball games.

…………

After the Lakers started, the offense led by Kobe played very well, and they kept the score lead all the way.

But on the face of the Clippers coach, Ron didn't see any emotional fluctuations, obviously he had his own cards.

However, the subsequent games seemed to have nothing to do with Ron—Jordan, who was sitting next to Lorraine, took out his Bluetooth headset and mobile phone, and connected a call.

"Hello, this is Jordan Cervantes."

"Got it, we're on the scene."

"Okay, let's go right away."

Jordan separates work and life very clearly, and he takes out his work mobile phone.

After answering the call, he patted Lorraine on the shoulder with a serious expression, and motioned him to follow him. As for the other police officers, seeing Jordan and Lorraine standing up with serious expressions, they also stood up. Strolling towards the player tunnel.

"Hello, the inside is the players' lounge, no entry is allowed."

There are security guards in the players' tunnel. Although he was a little scared when he saw a group of burly men approaching, he still stretched out his arms to block the way.

"We are the police and have just received a report."

However, the arm blocked by the security guard was put down after Jordan showed his police ID, and a group of six or seven people marched to the Lakers lounge in a mighty manner—the Lakers players who had just worked hard on the court were not there. Resting in the lounge, but all standing at the door of the lounge, the atmosphere is dignified.

"Hi everyone, I'm Jordan Cervantes, a police officer. I just received a report. Can someone come forward and explain the specific situation?"

Following Jordan, Lorraine and other police officers all showed their IDs to prove their identities, so the superstar with a dignified complexion and a very handsome appearance by black standards stood up and spoke while showing the text message he had just received .
