Super Small Forward

: One hundred and two. The important thing is to retain physical strength

I have to say that the league's schedule for the Lakers is not friendly at all. After Christmas, on the 27th and 28th, they have to go back-to-back away. First go to Salt Lake City, and then the opponent is actually the Nets. When the league season did not start, it was true. The Lakers, as a gift to the strong team, clearly make the Nets schedule easier.

   At nine o'clock in the morning on the 26th, Liu Ren, who had tossed Chen Hanni until dawn, got up. After taking a shower, he had breakfast and saw Monica who had just sent Lori to school back home.

   "Eileen, take me to buy a car. Every time I go out, it’s too much trouble for you to send it." Liu Ren said casually.

   "Uh, good." Monica seemed to have something urgent, and in response to Liu Ren hurriedly walked towards the room.

   Liu Ren is a little weird, the financial sister who is usually very enthusiastic is so weird today?

   Without thinking, Liu Ren went back to the room and changed her clothes and came out. Monica was ready to wait for Liu Ren to set off with him in the business district not far from Beverly Hills.

Here Liu Ren and Chen Hanni have been here many times, but Chen Hanni always goes shopping, pure shopping, and I don’t buy the one I like too expensive. Instead, I go home and buy the same money online, except for business talks. The famous brands are usually the same.

   When I arrived at a Ferrari flagship store, Liu Ren and Monica parked their cars and went in. Today Monica drove Chen Hanni's sports car when Monica came out, so the flagship store employees were waiting at the door to open the door.

"Welcome, what do you need... You are Liu! Wow, it's really Liu, hello, are you going to buy a new car today?" The female clerk's business literacy is still sufficient, and she is quickly depressed after being excited. Emotions, do your job.

   As for the woman next to Liu Ren does not seem to be the Chinese girlfriend in his rumors, the clerk does not care at all. How many players came out to buy a car with his wife or girlfriend?

   The clerk was very enthusiastic about introducing models to Liu Ren, much more enthusiastic than the other people who usually came to ask. There is no way, who makes NBA players feel like people are stupid and proud. There are a lot of celebrities in this store. When they really come, they just pay for things. Except for the young heirs of some big companies, they are NBA players.

The cheapest car in such a store is more than $200,000. The clerk is on a rotation system. Some clerk is not lucky and can’t sell two cars a month, and some are lucky every time she is lucky. customer.

   As the clerk expected, Liu Ren quickly picked the car he wanted, the Ferrari Lusso.

   In addition to the power and appearance of this car, what Liu Ren liked is that he has four seats...

  For such a simple and rude reason, Liu Ren directly asked the clerk to fill up the gas, transfer the money and sign and leave, leaving behind a bunch of clerk who hasn’t mentioned the sales term in the wind...

  ……

   After the team gathered for training in the afternoon, the Lakers team bus took the players to the airport and flew to Salt Lake City in the neighboring state.

   Salt Lake City is not far from Los Angeles, and the flight takes more than 20 minutes. Generally speaking, like playing the Warriors and Kings, the flight will not be too tiring.

   But the most terrifying thing in Salt Lake City is not comparable to long-distance flying. Not many teams are willing to play the playoffs with the Jazz. There is only one reason. The altitude is close to 1,500 meters!

   It’s not specific enough to say this. If you’ve been to the Inner Mongolia Plateau or climbed the Huangshan Mountains, you’ll know it. It’s not enough to cause altitude sickness, but it’s a bit embarrassing to quickly produce altitude sickness.

   In short, Liu Ren felt a little uncomfortable when he got here, as if he felt a little palpitating after catching a cold.

   And here is a typical plateau mountain climate, at the end of December, it was already ice and snow.

   and it's kind of clammy! Liu Ren is now wrapped in rice dumplings, and still feels the cold air in his clothes. He finally knew why Kupchak would give the players a suitcase full of cold-proof equipment before boarding the plane.

   You know, it's rare for Los Angeles to have less than 5 degrees in winter! In addition, the weather in Los Angeles is very good in all seasons. If it doesn't rain, the sky is a cloud that can't be seen. It is always shining with warm sunlight.

  Who would have thought that Salt Lake City in the neighboring state would be so cold?

   After getting off the plane, Liu Ren shrank into a ball in the cold, rushed into the team bus, and felt the warm air conditioning before relieving him. He couldn't help but said: "I really envy Steve not using it and go straight to New York."

   "If you are 40 years old, the management will tell you not to fight back to back." Kobe joked.

   "I said why did you come to Salt Lake City? It's really strange, you won't be on the list tomorrow." Liu Renbai gave Kobe a glance.

   Kobe looked at the white snow scene outside the window, and his eyes revealed nostalgia: "This is a very important place in my career. I don't know how many times I can come as a player. I can't help but take a look."

   Liu Ren wanted to continue spraying with Kobe, but when he saw Kobe like this, he chose to forget it.

   "Maybe this old man is the last person who doesn't want to admit that he is old? Otherwise, he won't be 38 and use the most shots per game to prove that he is okay, but in the end he admits that he is not good."

   If the Lakers are playing games with other nearby teams, such as the Kings, Warriors, and even the Suns, they all go on the same day. Sometimes they even return to Los Angeles that day to play the Jazz one day earlier because of the climate.

   There is no need to rent an arena for training like going to other places to play away games. They directly rested in the hotel until the next afternoon, three hours before the start of the game, and then went to the Energy Solution Arena to warm up.

   The energy solution arena can only be described by Mencoloque. Except for the media following Los Angeles, there are only a few local media to cover the game.

   Not to mention that the Jazz has always been unloved by fans ~www.readwn.com~ Just say that their record this year, even if a team that has received much attention like the Lakers to play away, it will not attract much attention.

Even the crazy fans who used to be the home of the Devil, most of them don’t watch the game anymore. Since Sloan’s retirement, the Jazz has been worse than a year, and they barely made the playoffs in the 11-12 season. The Lakers and Rockets surpassed the playoffs. This year they are now ranked third in the league with 7 wins and 25 losses and first in the Western Conference. Only the 76ers and Bucks have worse records than them.

   After entering the stadium, Liu Ren saw the sparse fans on the long side, and the attendance rate was only about 80%, right? Even the 76ers' attendance rate is higher than this...

Just like the record, the Jazz is bad, very bad. Originally, the league asked the Lakers to give the Jazz food. Who said the Jazz almost made the playoffs last year. The league thinks that their young players will go further this year and may become A dark horse like the Grizzlies came, but the Jazz gave the Lakers food.

   With Gasol, the Lakers are completely different from the Lakers before Christmas. The Jazz used to have average offense and excellent defense. Now the offense is still average, and it can even be described as bad. The defense is worse than offense.

In the first half, D'Antoni directly ranked the strongest combination of Antetokounmpo, Nick Young, Liu Ren, Gasol, and Whiteside, and started a wave of 20-3 defeating the Jazz, not giving the Jazz a chance to struggle. .

   In the end, the Lakers easily slaughtered the Jazz 133 to 100. It was only after the Lakers eliminated the disaster-level combination of Marshall, McCollum, Nick Young, Kaman, and Thackeray in the second half that the opponents scored less embarrassingly.

   Following D'Antoni’s wish, the Lakers did not expend too much energy in the game today, as much as possible to reserve energy for tomorrow’s game with the Nets.
