After entering the training camp, Li Hao spent most of his time training with his teammates, and occasionally attended events, such as community activities arranged by the team and Li Hao's own business activities.
During this period, some people have left the Lakers training camp and gone to the next team to look for opportunities. This is the NBA, the most cruel basketball league in the world.
Yi Jianlian has integrated into the team better because of Li Hao. It has to be said that adaptability is indeed very important for athletes, and Yi Jianlian has poor adaptability.
But now that Li Hao is here, it's different. Maybe Yi Jianlian's ability will not increase much, but after all, he has played in the NBA for several seasons before, and his experience is still good.
In fact, for Yi Jianlian, being able to gain a foothold in a high-level league is already a victory, because being in a high-level league can help him maintain his condition better.
Moreover, Li Hao's help to Yi Jianlian is not only on the court, Yi Jianlian cannot live without Li Hao. For example, Li Hao's Chinese restaurant that only serves pure Chinese food can be used as a canteen by Yi Jianlian as long as he is willing.
So when looking for a house, Yi Jianlian wanted to find a house that was close to Li Hao's house and the Chinese restaurant. In fact, Yi Jianlian had already found one.

Watching Li Hao and Wade preparing for the new season in full swing at the training camp, Howard, who was far away in Los Angeles, couldn't stand it.
The Lakers often announce team training camp information on their social media, and Li Hao will share it with Howard in his own chat.
It is said that after more than a year of development, the number of registered people is approaching 30 million, and the stickiness of support is very high, and the brand value is soaring like a rocket.
Not to mention Kobe and Li Hao, even investment guru Lawrence didn't expect that Kobe and Lawrence recently met in Los Angeles to discuss their future.
Li Hao basically doesn't care about the situation now. Anyway, let Kobe and Lawrence decide whether to take action or continue to hold. The most important thing for Li Hao is to focus on the start of the new season.
As September is coming to an end, the NBA will usher in the October preseason. This is also the last training session of the new season and an opportunity to test role players.
The 16-17 season is a few days earlier than the previous two years. In the opening game on October 25, the Knicks will face the defending champion Cavaliers, the Warriors will face the Spurs led by Leonard, and the Jazz will face the Trail Blazers.
The Lakers' first regular season game was interesting. The opponent was the Houston Rockets. Unfortunately, Howard was injured, and Zhou Qi will not join the NBA until next season. But even so, this game was still full of speed.
Li Hao's career debut was against the Rockets, and his triple-double in his debut stunned the entire league. After that, Li Hao exploded against the Rockets.
The first game in which Li Hao truly became the core of the team was against the Rockets. The meaning of the league's arrangement was already very obvious.
……………………………………………………
When Howard arrived in Las Vegas, the Lakers were already preparing to leave. The preseason was coming soon, and the team was preparing to give the players two days off to relax.
"Damn" Happymon suddenly turned into Depressedmon.
Although Howard is not yet able to return to the team, his recovery from surgery is very good. If he continues to recover at the current rate, Howard can return to the court before December.
….
At present, Howard has stopped losing weight. Weight loss has a great impact on Howard. Next, he needs to adapt to his weight again, and losing too much at one time is not necessarily a good thing.
In the past three months, Howard has lost a total of 15 pounds, and his whole body looks like he has shrunk. Before, Howard was strong, but now he is gradually moving towards becoming stronger.
Li Hao, who returned to Los Angeles, hosted a banquet for the whole team again, but this time it was in his own restaurant. Everyone has a responsibility to promote Chinese cuisine, and Li Hao wants to promote real Chinese cuisine.
However, not all players can accept the midfielder. Naturally, Li Hao will not force it. Comparing his feelings, Li Hao himself also has many things that he cannot accept.

"How is the team preparing for the game?" The day after returning to Los Angeles, Kobe came to visit.
"Kobe, you have retired," Li Hao couldn't help but remind him.
In the past month, Kobe's performance against Li Hao and the Lakers' training camp was no less than Howard's.
"I won't go back to steal your position," Kobe said comfortingly, patting Li Hao on the shoulder.
"Even if you come back now, you can't beat me." Kobe has not touched a basketball for several months, and Li Hao has become much stronger after these few months.
"Lee, you successfully angered the Black Mamba." Kobe said and took out a basketball from the corner.
"Only the weak talk, the strong talk on the court," Kobe said provocatively.
"Hey, today I will show you who is the strong one and who is the weak one." Li Hao stood up as he said that.
"Wait, something seems wrong," Li Hao suddenly realized as he walked to the underground court. However, it was no longer helpful to realize it at this time. How could Kobe, who had finally caught the opportunity, let Li Hao leave.
Then, the two engaged in a 1v1 real man battle that lasted for nearly three hours. Although Li Hao and Kobe were completely opposite in terms of victory and defeat, Kobe was Kobe, and he was still strong even after retiring for nearly half a year.
Maybe Kobe really hasn't played a game for a long time, but because of this, Kobe's body, which was originally full of scars, gradually repaired. Kobe has been recuperating his body in the past few months.
"I can play with you all day" If you lose, you don't lose.
"I don't want to fight with you all day, I want to go to eat." After three hours of real man fighting, Li Hao was already hungry.
"Let's do this. If you win this next shot, we'll go to dinner. If I win, then let's continue," Kobe said.
"Okay" After saying this, Li Hao shot directly with his backhand.
brush--
The basketball goes hollow into the net.
"Eat" Li Hao left the underground stadium without looking back.
"This guy" looked at Li Hao leaving, and Kobe didn't stop him. In fact, after three hours of real man fighting, Kobe was satisfied. Today is different from the past, he has retired.
………………………………………………………………
"Come to my place tonight, Natalia and Gianna miss you." During the meal, Kobe invited Li Hao to his home.
"Okay." Li Hao didn't refuse. Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Kobe's two daughters for a while.
By the way, Kobe's third daughter will be born in two months. Li Hao should be the first to know about Vanessa's pregnancy. Kobe was looking forward to it when she first became pregnant.
As we all know, Kobe wants a son to inherit his mantle. Of course, even his daughter Kobe will love him, but not having a son is always a pity for Kobe.
