However, Li Hao had no time to care about this, because when he woke up, he had to fly to Phoenix with the team immediately to challenge the Phoenix Suns away from home.
US Airways Center, home of the Phoenix Suns.
The sideline of the US Airways Center is far from as star-studded as the Staples Center, but in terms of appearance, it is definitely not worse than the Staples Center, especially Abby Hornacek, the daughter of Jeff Hornacek gram.
Just say that today, Abby Hornacek appeared on the sidelines, and every time Abby Hornacek arrives, he attracts the attention of fans and players.
You know, among the Suns players, it is estimated that half of them want to call the head coach father-in-law.
In China, Jeff Hornacek is also known as the national father-in-law.
Today, Li Hao finally met this legendary beauty.
"It's very beautiful, but it's a pity that it's not my type." Li Hao took a few glances and stopped paying attention.
Women will only affect my determination to win the game. In the face of victory, women are nothing.
……………………………………………..
Then the Lakers lost. A woman was nothing before the victory or defeat, but who said this woman was the daughter of the opponent's head coach.
110:119, the Lakers lost the second game of the new season by 9 points.
In this game, Kobe had a vague feeling of dreaming of returning to his peak. He made 11 of 25 shots in the game, 2 of 4 three-pointers, and 7 of 7 free throws, scoring a total of 31 points.
But it is a pity that these 31 points ended up being empty cuts. The Lakers did not defeat the Suns in Phoenix. Compared with the Lakers, three people scored in double figures, and the Suns scored in double figures with 6 people.
After his first show, Li Hao's strength has obviously been strengthened, but his scoring in this game was much less. He played 29 minutes in the game, making 8 of 16 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws, scoring 22 points. Points, 7 assists, 6 rebounds, 3 steals, 2 blocks.
Taking fewer shots than in the previous game is just one of the reasons. A basketball game is not about taking more shots. If you can't make a shot, it's useless no matter how many shots you take.
After all, reality is not a game. Even if Li Hao increases all attributes to 99, it is impossible for him to achieve 100% in all aspects.
Let's talk about the three-point attribute. According to the system attribute standard, Curry's three-pointer must reach 99, but even with full attributes, Curry's three-point shooting percentage does not exceed 50%.
…………………………………………….
The game against the Suns was not as impressive as his debut, but even so, Li Hao was still the best player among this year's rookies.
Before the game between the Lakers and the Suns, this year's No. 1 pick and No. 2 pick both appeared one after another. The Milwaukee Bucks challenged the Charlotte Hornets away. No. 2 Jabari Parker started the game and played 37 minutes, making 3 of 9 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. 8 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist.
At FedEx Arena, the Timberwolves lost the game 101:105. Wiggins, the top pick, only played 19 minutes, making 2 of 5 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 1 of 2 free throws, scoring 6 points and 3 rebounds. , 1 assist.
"Andrew and Jabari are the normal performances of a rookie," Kenny Smith said after watching their performance.
"That's their own problem. You can't let Lee be mediocre just because others are mediocre," O'Neal said.
"By the way, to be fair, I have something else to tell you. I promised Lee that if he finally wins the Rookie of the Year award this season, I will give him a mysterious gift after the season." O'Neal Speaking of that meeting.
"Shaq, you actually contacted the players privately?" Barkley quit.
"Isn't it normal for us to contact players?" O'Neal looked at Barkley like an idiot.
"What gift are you going to give Li?" Kenny Smith asked.
"It's a secret, you'll know it when Lee wins the Rookie of the Year award," O'Neal said with a mysterious face.
"That would be so unfair to us," Barkley said.
"So I am telling you this now, and you are also committed to the players you are optimistic about," O'Neal said.
Among the three TNT giants, O'Neal is undoubtedly the most valuable. His career salary is close to 300 million. Even if half of all taxes are deducted, it is still 150 million. For a giant like O'Neal, player salary is not all, but also various advertising endorsements. , In addition, O'Neal is also a very business-savvy player.
In comparison, although Barkley is considered a giant, the salary he received in his more than ten years of career is only the annual salary of some players in the future.
Needless to say, Kenny Smith. Although he also has two championship rings, Kenny Smith was an important member of the Rockets lineup during the Olajuwon era, but the highest average in his entire career was only a dozen points per game, and he was not even a star. superior.
By the way, among the Big Three, Barkley has no rings, O'Neal has 4 championship rings, and Kenny Smith also has 2. O'Neal often squeezes Barkley on this matter.
"Damn, we're not as rich as you." This is Buckley, a big mouth who speaks his mind.
"Even" Kenny Smith looked helpless.
"Then it's none of my business. Anyway, I've told you what happened." O'Neal spread his hands with an expression that said it was my fault for how much money I made.
"Damn" Barkley and Kenny Smith could only curse O'Neal in their hearts for being shameless.
Although the two of them cursed O'Neal in their hearts, they finally agreed. Besides, O'Neal was not stupid. He only said the mysterious gift and did not say how much the gift would cost, so it was up to him to decide what to give.
……………………………………………..
In addition to the No. 1 pick and the No. 2 pick, many players in the lottery will appear today. For example, the No. 5 pick Exum scored 5 points in 10 minutes of playing time, the No. 6 pick Smart scored 10 points in 28 minutes of playing time, and the No. 8 pick scored 10 points in 28 minutes. Showstauskas scored 9 points in 26 minutes.
Oh, by the way, there is also Li Hao’s good friend, future dunk king Zach LaVine, who scored 2 points and 1 assist in 10 minutes in his debut.
In the original history, Zach LaVine did not get playing time in the first game of the Timberwolves season, but because of Li Hao's wings, LaVine got a full 10 minutes in this time and space.
But in terms of performance, there is definitely no way to compare with Li Hao. It is no wonder that Barkley and Kenny Smith said that Li Hao's performance was not normal.
But doesn't this directly prove that Li Hao is different? Otherwise, how could he achieve a triple-double in his first NBA debut in 50 years.
……………………………………………
But it was precisely because his debut was so amazing that the 22 points, 7 assists, and 6 rebounds in the game against the Suns felt average.
The stunning debut directly raised the expectations of fans and major ball commentators for Li Hao. However, if you look at Li Hao's performance in the Lakers-Suns game from the perspective of a rookie, his performance can be said to be very outstanding.
Don’t forget, Li Hao is only a second-round pick. Look at the performance of the previous lottery picks. What’s the saying?
It all depends on peers.
PS: I wish my brothers a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a happy reunion between man and moon.
