Chapter 1048 Lakers Home
After the game, Li Ba was surrounded by the media. He still ignored those media reporters who targeted him, picked a few reporters, and answered their questions.
"Hammer, the Suns' roster doesn't look good this season. Why did they win the Lakers with big scores in a row?" the reporter asked.
Li Ba said: "We used this not-so-good lineup to achieve the first record in the league, which shows that this lineup is not as bad as you think.
You may care about giants and superstars, but what we care about is the rationality of the lineup, defense, and both offense and defense.
And, all of us are full of talent.Take me for example, all praises cannot be exaggerated..."
"Pfft!"
Hearing that Li Ba started bragging again, the media burst into laughter.
But Li Ba didn't stop, and continued: "Look at my teammates, Yi and Marc Gasol, they are all guys who can get the maximum salary in the future. They chatted and beat Duncan and Garnett; Tony Allen , he is our perimeter gate, positions [-], [-], and [-] are all his dishes; Rondo, the gate guard on the point guard, has excellent organizational skills; Insert who..."
"Oh, we can get a big contract!" Hearing Li Ba's words, Tony Allen jumped up excitedly outside.
"You just know how to defend, but you can't get a big contract." Rondo complained.
"Rookie, you are not much better than me, who is always being let go?" Tony Allen said dissatisfied.
Rondo hummed twice, but fell silent.
His personality is not very good, he is very withdrawn, and he is not good at communicating. After staying in the Celtics for a year, he often had disputes with others, but it is much better when he returns to the Suns.
At the post-game press conference, the Lakers players only came to Artest, not even Duncan.
"Phil, may I ask why Kobe and the others didn't come?" a reporter asked loudly.
"Sorry, they feel a little uncomfortable," Phil Jackson said.
"Phil, we failed in Game 2 and returned to the home court. How will the Lakers plan to play Game 3?" The first person to ask was the team reporter of the Lakers, Wells, a reporter from the Los Angeles Sports News.
"We will try our best to protect the home court." Phil Jackson said briefly.
"How?" Wells asked.
"Libao." Phil Jackson replied with some difficulty.
Li Ba bowed his head, lying on the table and laughing non-stop.
It's not his fault, the two of them cooperated so well in the question and answer, it was all nonsense.
"Hammer, why did you play a full-court press at the beginning of the game tonight?" Someone asked Li Ba.
"There are not so many reasons. I can play full-court pressing tactics at any time. It just depends on whether I want to." Li Ba laughed.
"I only got 5 rebounds tonight, which is not enough for you in the regular season. Do you have anything to say?"
"But we didn't suffer from rebounds tonight. Yi and Mark did a good job inside. There are many ways to win. We can win without my rebounds tonight." Li Ba laughed.
"You are trying more at the position of point guard now. Is it possible to play the No. [-] position for a long time in the future?" The reporter asked.
"I am different from Jordan and Kobe. I really hope to try more. For example, different positions, such as different sports. Maybe next season I will play point guard, or I may play the third or fourth position, Let's see the situation." Li Ba said.
"Will you play number two?"
"It's never possible, I don't have that talent." Li Ba laughed.
"Hammer, how did you get the Wimbledon wildcard?" a reporter asked.
"When you stand at my height, you won't ask this question again, because it's not a problem for me at all." Li Ba laughed.
"Do you have any career expectations for Wimbledon?" the reporter asked again.
"I will take it seriously." Li Ba said.
The next day, the Suns moved to Los Angeles.
Li Ba's family and a group of friends also came to Los Angeles.
At noon, Li Ba and Ya Tou took Guoguo to Disneyland.
Guoguo is still young, in order to protect her eyesight, she was not allowed to watch any cartoons, so she seemed not very interested in this place, and left after playing for a while.
Back in the urban area, Li Ba's family entertained guests. The guests were Zhang Depei and his wife Liu Baoan, accompanied by Gao Yuanyuan.
Zhang Depei is ten years older than Li Ba. He got married last year. His wife Liu Baoan is also a tennis coach. She is of Chinese descent. The two live in Los Angeles.
"After retiring, I always hoped to coach a Chinese player. I never thought of it, I didn't think of it, I really didn't think of it..."
Zhang Depei smiled with some emotion.
"I didn't expect it to be me?" Li Ba laughed.
Nodding, Zhang Depei smiled and said, "Yes, you are the best basketball player in the world, the world heavyweight boxing champion, I never thought you would come to play tennis, and it is professional tennis."
Li Ba smiled and said, "I shouldn't get any honors during this trip to Wimbledon, but I can be sure that I will create a record."
Zhang Depei learned about Li Ba's training situation from Gao Yuanyuan, and immediately said excitedly: "Serve?"
"Yes, I'm sure, I can break the world record of serve." Li Ba laughed.
Zhang Depei nodded and said with a smile: "I heard your serve speed at the time, wow, I was so surprised! If you can hit enough ACEs in a single game, you might be able to advance."
"It depends on luck, my training time is too short..." Li Ba raised his wrist and said: "The wrist is too thick, and the flexibility is not very good. When maintaining the speed of the ball, if the force is too large, the ball cannot be pressed down. .”
Zhang Depei said with a smile: "Some physical qualities are difficult to change, but technology can help you. If you can't press your wrist down, you can increase the rotation of the ball and let it change the trajectory, thereby improving the hit rate of the serve. This is the same as shooting. With the rotation of the basketball, there is a greater chance of getting into the basket through the air."
The two chatted for a while, and Li Ba invited them to watch the game at Staples tomorrow night.
On May 5, the second round of G9 between the Suns and the Lakers began.
Suns: Li Ba, Ah Lian, Tony Allen, Ginobili, Rondo.
Lakers: Duncan, Garnett, Artest, Kobe, Parker.
In the opening game, Li Ba won the jump ball and the Suns attacked.
The UAE took Duncan to the right wing, Li Ba came to the high position, received a pass from Rondo, and was double-teamed by Garnett and Artest.
Although Li Ba was double-teamed, the Lakers' basket was also emptied.
At this time, Ah Lian, who had just been pulled out, suddenly ran back, using a faster pace to drop Duncan, and cut to the basket.
Artest quickly defended the basket, but at this time Li Ba used his turn to break through Garnett, followed Artest and rushed up.
"careful!"
When Duncan turned around, he could no longer keep up with Li Ba, and he roared anxiously.
Artest, who had just returned to the basket to block Ah Lian, only heard a loud "bang" above his head, and then his back seemed to be hit by a heavy truck, and the huge force hit him. He jumped forward suddenly. I just fell down on my stomach, and when I got up, my face was black.
At the beginning of the game, there was a dunk, and even people were dunked, making Staples silent.
