Almighty legend life

Chapter 13 Sunrise in Los Angeles
The morning air in Los Angeles in winter is fresh. This city on the east coast of the vast ocean is so pleasant all year round. The sea breeze blowing from the Pacific Ocean always brings the warmth that nourishes everything in this season.

Liu Han has been living in this new place thousands of miles away from his hometown for a month.He impressed the eighty-year-old Mr. John Wooden with his outstanding talent and love for basketball. Although the head coach of the Bruins, Jim Harrick, had always been biased and discriminated against him, he still used his sincerity. His attitude and unrelenting enthusiasm for training has made most of his teammates and coaches accept him.Mr. John Wooden used his relationship and influence to solve the last obstacle for Liu Han to join UCLA. Liu Han is now an official UCLA sports specialty student.

At six o'clock in the morning, Liu Han walked out of LaBeouf's house in the morning mist that still carried the last trace of night. He and Nasha still lived in LaBeouf's house.Li Rui, whose visa has expired, has returned to the country. He will return to the United States after finishing all his work in the country.With the help of Mr. John Wooden and his old classmate George Clent, Li Rui has found a job. He will work as the basketball coach of Inglewood High School after he returns to the United States.Nasha, who is deeply pregnant, is no longer suitable for long-distance flights by plane, and Liu Han, whose English is not very good, also needs someone to help him integrate into the new life, and Mr. LaBeouf will not allow him to love him The daughter and the unborn grandson left again.

LaBeouf's home is about [-] kilometers away from UCLA. Liu Han has to attend language classes every morning, so he chooses to go to school by running.The [-]-kilometer distance did not cause trouble for Liu Han, who has been herding sheep all over the mountains and fields since he was a child. On the contrary, he feels that doing such exercises every day can keep his body in good condition.Liu Han, who grew up with discrimination and abuse since he was a child, has a good mentality under the education of his grandmother. Although he always feels a little uncomfortable when entering a new environment, he can clearly feel who the people around him are. Those who have a good impression on him, and those who treat him badly, Liu Han knows that as long as he listens to the opinions of those who have good intentions for him and completes it carefully, it will be fine.

Shi Lei has become a loyal fan of Liu Han. He admires this big man with only elementary school education and a little naivety from the bottom of his heart. In his opinion, if he puts himself in the same position as Liu Han, He didn't know what would become of him.Every day at noon, Shi Lei would wait for Liu Han at the appointed place, and he would take Liu Han to lunch and teach Liu Han some small details that need to be paid attention to in life in the United States.Shi Lei hoped that what he did could help his new friend.

Liu Han is jogging in the morning light. He has gradually gotten used to the new life. His serious attitude and the help of his friends have allowed him to make rapid progress in his English learning. Now he can complete some basic communication. His brain development is slow since he was a child. Rather than being really a fool, his naivety is just because of "virginity".He also figured out that his black teammates were not really tanned, but they were so tanned, and he made a big joke because of this. He asked his teammate O'Bonno directly in a training session Is it because of the sun for a long time every day, otherwise why is it so dark, many teammates just fell to the ground laughing.

Liu Han is very grateful to his teammates, because they are all very friendly to Liu Han, except for Hudson White who pushed him in the training game, Hudson White always makes trouble for him in training, or relies on As an old team member, he ordered Liu Han to do this and that.In fact, Liu Han thinks this is nothing, because he has been bullied by others since he was a child. These innocuous things can't cause him any harm, but Hudson's behavior completely angered the team's captain and main point guard Teyou Si Edney.In a training game, Hudson deliberately pushed down Liu Han who was shooting again, and the furious Tejus punched Hudson directly. Hudson did not expect that the main point guard who was not tall was so hot-tempered. , Hudson, who fell to the ground, didn't react at all.After playing this, Hudson's behavior has converged a lot.

The people Liu Han is most grateful to are Zhou Yibin and coach Li Rui. The former made him come into contact with basketball and fell in love with this sport, while the latter made great efforts for him.After his grandma passed away, Liu Han originally thought that apart from his third uncle, there should be no one who really cared about him in this world, but he didn't expect that he would meet so many good people one after another, so he missed his hometown except for his third uncle and Apart from Zhou Yibin, there are only those "good" memories of living with grandma.

In the beautiful air bathed in sunshine in the morning, Liu Han met many morning joggers along the way, and most of them would choose to smile and say hello, which made Liu Han feel very good and comfortable.It is undeniable that three months ago, Liu Han was just a boy playing with bricks on the construction site, but who would have thought that only three months later, Liu Han would be jogging with strangers in the morning on the land of a foreign country Greeted with a smile.This may also be due to Liu Han's handsome face inherited from his mother who has never met, coupled with Liu Han's good body shape from long-term hard work, most normal people would probably leave a good impression on themselves The first image of the person with a smile on it.

Liu Han, who is about to arrive at school, will go to Shi Lei's place to wash up first. This is what Nasha told him. A clean and tidy image is his basic courtesy to his classmates and teachers. Liu Han feels that this makes sense, because it is clean and tidy , tall and smiling, he always gets help from his classmates.

Liu Han, who finished his language class, would sometimes be invited by Mr. John Wooden to his home at noon. The octogenarian would always tell Liu Han a lot of truths, some about basketball and some about life , and Shi Lei, who followed Liu Han to Mr. Wooden's house to translate for Liu Han, also felt that he had benefited a lot. The words of this legendary old man who created legends revealed many true meanings of life.Liu Han liked to listen to this venerable old man tell his old stories, which reminded Liu Han of his grandma. Although John Wooden's words were more elegant than his grandma's, the truth was the same.

John Wooden liked Liu Han very much when he came to his house. On the one hand, older people would hate the hustle and bustle, but on the other hand, they also liked the house to be more lively. He could not feel the impetuousness of a normal young man from Liu Han. Han only has innocence and love for basketball, so John Wooden will tell Liu Han his basketball experience and life insights one by one.It is undeniable that the United States in this period was undoubtedly leading the world economically and culturally, but their concept of family affection was indeed relatively weak. The company of Liu Han and Shi Lei made the elderly John Wooden feel the warmth of family affection.Every time when Liu Han and Shi Lei come, John Wooden will ask his family to prepare a lot of food. At the same time, John Wooden will also give Liu Han a lot of things that basketball players should pay attention to in terms of diet. The elderly John Wooden He did not give up his studies, and he will pay attention to a lot of current affairs news about basketball.Liu Han also made a delicacy that he misses for Mr. Wooden whom he respects very much - Potato Mocha, and this kind of food that Shi Lei translated as "Potato Shredded Pancake" also made John Wooden full of praise.

Every afternoon, after Liu Han said goodbye to Shi Lei and Mr. Wooden, he would come to the training hall. At the beginning, his training was all about the most basic basketball moves, dribbling, passing, and shooting that he relied on to stay.George Krent, who was in charge of the training, exclaimed that Liu Han's learning speed in these basic basketball moves was indeed a genius.In just over half a month, Liu Han's dribbling has been able to ensure that he does not lose the ball in general training games, while passing the ball pays more attention to vision and awareness, which requires the accumulation of Liu Han's experience. He has basically mastered all kinds of passing techniques.

George has always been in charge of Liu Han's training. The head coach Jim Harrick has never paid much attention to this oriental guy who swept him off face, and more importantly, this oriental kid was left by John Wooden. It made him feel a little disgusted even more, so he kept turning a blind eye to Liu Han's existence.

George did not rashly ask Liu Han to start strength training as soon as he arrived. Although Liu Han is indeed lacking in strength, George feels that the most important thing for Liu Han now is to maintain his mobility and projection ability, so that Liu Han can fight in the future. It was shown in the competition that George, who hastily increased his strength training, was afraid that it would destroy Liu Han's soft touch.

The teammates all had expectations for Liu Han, and they were also shocked by Liu Han's learning ability during training.Liu Han learned dribbling with the main point guard Teyousi for more than ten days and played well. Except for some lack of rhythm and speed, it is not obvious that Liu Han just started learning dribbling.Teyous began to look forward to the upcoming Pacific Ten games and the future NCAA64 tournament.
