Chapter 798 Gift
Many of the Thunder's games in this game are so simple, boring and boring.
In the first half, the men's solution was scored, and in the third quarter, they were taken away in a wave, and in the fourth quarter, it was garbage time.
Some teams were even worse. They were disabled in the first half, and there was no hope of a comeback in the second half.
The Lakers did not escape this fate tonight. The Lakers played well enough, but under the Thunder's high-intensity defense and sharp counterattack in the third quarter, their old, slow, and clumsy weaknesses were still exposed.
After the end of the third quarter, Kobe sat on the bench and looked up at the scoreboard, showing a little confusion.
In 20 years, some things have not changed, but some things will eventually change.
He is still one of the outstanding basketball players in the NBA. If he is willing to go to other teams, I believe any team will warmly welcome him.
Not only strength, but also popularity.
If Kobe is willing to play in the CBA, the salary and the basketball market will definitely explode.
But Kobe is a little tired. Today's NBA is dominated by young people.
Westbrook, Durant, Li Liang, this is their world.
Six championships, equal to Jordan, two regular season MVPs, surpassing O'Neal, two finals MVPs, surpassing James.
20 years of career, worth it.
Throughout the fourth quarter, Kobe sat on the bench and watched the game.
Scott didn't let him play again, and Bryant sat on the sidelines with thick ice packs strapped to his knees.
And Li Liang, a brazen guy, in the name of being a substitute sixth man, Lai continued to play on the court and scored for himself.
At present, Li Liang and Durant both occupy the second and third places in the scoring list - the Warriors' Stephen Curry ranks first.
The two still have to compete with each other.
Li Liang is obviously a bit more shameless than Durant, and he never rejects appearing on the stage during garbage time to brush up statistics or something.
In the fourth quarter, Li Liang abruptly raised his score to 32 points, the highest score in the game.
When encountering such a person, Durant has nothing to do.
In the end, the Thunder defeated the Lakers at 109:97 in the away game and avenged the previous game.
The Thunder also showed the league their extremely strong strength.
The Lakers have already played very well, but in front of the Thunder, they were still killed with a little effort.
After the game, in the Lakers locker room, many reporters surrounded Kobe for interviews.
One of the most frequently asked questions by reporters is whether Kobe's retirement is related to Li Liang's return to the Lakers.
Li Liang just returned to Los Angeles to participate in the game tonight, which is what Los Angeles reporters are most concerned about right now.
But Kobe denied this: "Retirement is my personal decision, and it has nothing to do with other people. Bruce, you should know that he is a very ego, a person with his own ideas, and no one can shake him or change him. Thoughts. Where he will go next season is his concern, I can only confirm one thing, that is, I will not stay here again next season."
Kobe's words were not without sadness. After the interview, he went into the physical therapy room for physical therapy.
In the Thunder locker room, a reporter also asked a similar question. Li Liang’s answer was the same as Kobe’s. “It’s a pity that Kobe retired. He is a great player. Without him, the NBA loses a lot, a lot. His retirement is connected with my whereabouts. I know this is disrespectful to a 20-year NBA veteran. This is his own decision. He notified me immediately. I respect him. As for where I will go, I will I don't know, I'm in Oklahoma anyway."
The two had a tacit understanding on this issue, and finally blocked the mouths of most of the media.
After the game against the Lakers, Li Liang and the team took a leave of absence and stayed in Los Angeles for an extra day.
He spent Christmas Eve with Bai Xiaoting, Wei Dazhi and Zhu Shu.
Of course, on Christmas Eve, in Bai Xiaoting's high-end hotel apartment, these four people were not the only ones coming in and out.
In fact, celebrities from all walks of life who live in the apartment opened their doors and jointly hosted a garden party-style Christmas Eve party.
Here, celebrities from all walks of life in Los Angeles are dressed in fancy clothes and shuttle on each floor. Different apartments are different banquet venues, and anyone can enter and exit.
Those social experts who have a wide range of contacts and acquaintances can fully roam among them and show their extraordinary communication skills.
Many celebrities from the fashion world came to Bai Xiaoting's house. These people were very avant-garde in their clothes. Of course, Li Liang didn't know any of them.
Wei Dazhi also eats very happily, there are almost no people he doesn't know, and it's not certain whether others recognize him or not.
Li Liang was very conspicuous in a group of people. He was too tall, his face was too special, and his popularity was too obvious.
Many "celebrities" that Li Liang had never heard of came over to chat with him, strike up a conversation, and even took photos with him.
Li Liang's main attention was on the black truffle and Iberian ham on the table.
He was a little hungry and wanted to eat.
After all, this product has a really big appetite.
It was really difficult to satisfy him with the little wine and small meals at the banquet.
Bai Xiaoting's home is full of gifts from friends from all walks of life.
Many of them were sent by the children of some political and business celebrities.
In particular, some wealthy Chinese businessmen and diamond kingpins in California are particularly fond of Bai Xiaoting, who is independent and stunningly beautiful.
They spend a lot of money, giving them brand-name bags, diamond jewelry, expensive perfumes, and clothes at every turn.
Unfortunately, Bai Xiaoting was not very interested.
It's not that she doesn't like famous bags and jewelry, but because she doesn't like the things those people give her, and she doesn't have enough taste.
She is a person who pays attention to dressing, and some jewelry does not suit her at all.
"Hey, look, what are these gifts? An emerald ring, this is not bad for my mother."
After 12 o'clock, the party was over, and Bai Xiaoting sat on her sofa and opened presents.
Li Liang sat beside him eating ham, Zhu Shu was so tired that she took off her shoes and leaned on Li Liang's shoulder and fell asleep.
Wei Dazhi was drunk and was throwing up in the bathroom.
"Then you can give it to your mother. Let's say it's from your future son-in-law." Li Liang joked.
To be honest, he felt that going to parties was more tiring than playing ball.
Talking and chatting with a group of people he is not very familiar with is really more difficult for him than getting stuck with Anthony Mason.
Los Angeles is a great place, but it may not be for everyone.
Bai Xiaoting sneered at Li Liang's words, she repacked the ring and threw it in a pile next to her.
This pile is all she wants to return, and she doesn't like it.
There are very few things that I really like, and they are usually given by real friends without any purpose.
Seeing that Bai Xiaoting was silent and was concentrating on unwrapping the presents, Li Liang took out a box from his pocket and handed it to Bai Xiaoting.
"Hey, it's for you, take a look."
Bai Xiaoting looked a little surprised, looked at Li Liang suspiciously, and said, "What? Don't give it away indiscriminately, I may not accept it."
"Take it apart and have a look before we talk about it. Do you think I will just give someone a gift?"
"Hehe, don't give me any gadgets, such as stones strung by my mother. I'm not a little girl, so I won't be moved."
Li Liang said impatiently: "Just check it out? There won't be an agency, if you don't like it, just return it to me."
Bai Xiaoting took the box, and when she opened it, a snake-like thing flew out!
It turned out to be a tricky box, Bai Xiaoting screamed loudly in fright, and threw the box away.
Wei Dazhi rushed out of the toilet and shouted, "What's wrong? What happened? 911?"
Li Liang leaned back and forth with a smile, which woke Zhu Shu up.
Bai Xiaoting calmed down, and when she found out that it was a prank toy, her face flushed with anger.
But even so, Li Liang didn't feel the anger value from Bai Xiaoting.
It's really strange.
Seeing Bai Xiaoting staring at him, Li Liang stopped smiling. He got up and took out two things from his bag, and handed them to Bai Xiaoting.
"Okay, sorry for joking with you, this is a gift for you, take a look."
Bai Xiaoting saw that there were two stacks of papers and two contracts.
"Two contracts, one is your rental contract, and the other is the purchase agreement. I have decided to buy the house you rented, and then continue to rent it to you. The rent... you can figure it out."
Bai Xiaoting wanted to throw these two contracts in Li Liang's face to avenge her just now.
But thinking about it, throwing him in the face is useless, this house was originally for sale.
Of course, the property owner hopes to cash out a large sum of money and sell the house.
Bai Xiaoting asked: "Why, didn't you ask the price of the whole building before? Why did you just buy one?"
Li Liangdao: "I didn't buy it for you, I bought it for Zhu Shu, do you care if I buy a set or a building?"
"Hehe, I know how to brag..."
"My bragging is better than your renting a house!"
