NOVEL NEXT king of los angeles
Chapter 59.
Chapter 59.
A small barbecue on the terrace accidentally invited Andre Ingram, who was three years older than Perkins.
There are not many people with gray hair at the age of 33, and Lao Yingge is one of them.
Lin Feng really wanted to make friends, so Old Pa naturally had the idea of taking him under his wing.
Lao Yingge will not be drafted by an NBA team again, he is already a veteran through and through.
But Lao Pa is eager for talents, and he only has two players under his banner, which is very cheap. Even a player like Lao Yingge does not intend to miss it. Maybe some miracle will happen.
Speaking of barbecue, Lin Feng likes to eat heavy cumin barbecue, which has a strong taste.
The other two are lighter and like to brush more oil on the meat, thinking that it is more fragrant.
The whole terrace smelled like meat, and Lin Feng was worried that the neighbors would call the police because of the smell.
Lin Feng likes the taste of Budweiser beer.
Lao Yingge is a very talkative person. He is full of love for life and is willing to share his basketball stories with Lin Feng and Perkins, especially about the Lakers.
Listening to him tell his own basketball story is like talking about someone else. He insisted on playing in the Development League for ten years and was understated by him.
"In the past ten years, have you not thought about going to Europe?"
Lin Feng knew that many European teams would send out invitations to capable American players in the development league, and the money earned in Europe would be much higher.
After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and some players in the Development League can gain a firm foothold in Europe.
Old Yingge grinned at the corners of his mouth, revealing his white teeth, "Of course, and there are not a few of them, all of which are strong teams in the European League."
He changed the subject, "But I want to stay in the United States. As long as I play in the NBDL, I still have the hope of being signed by an NBA team. Being able to stand on the NBA court is my greatest wish in this life."
Lin Feng looked at him and said nothing. What he can get with his own efforts is indeed the extravagant hope of some people in his life.
Perkins coughed twice, raised his glass and thought that he should have a drink for Old Yingge.
"Gary, your potential is obvious to all. It's okay to make mistakes before. The important thing is that you stand up again. That's something I can't feel in my life."
No matter what she said, Lao Yingge always had a smile on her face.In April of this year, he completed his NBA debut in 4 years.
The day after day of training finally brought him the chance to play. I don't know if Lao Yingge will have such a chance in the new season.
In memory, he was recruited by the Los Angeles Lakers again in 19 and won a ten-day contract for the second time.
But with the addition of Lin Feng in this life, I believe that the Lakers will no longer be trapped in the quagmire of competing for a playoff spot, which means that the chance of Lao Yingge returning to the team is slim.
The cruel fact of the business league is that only when the team has nothing to do will do that kind of heart-warming thing.
If the team always stays in the playoffs, Lao Yingge can only stay in the South Bay Lakers to shine and wait for the end of the long season year after year until the day of retirement.
The three chatted on the rooftop for a long time, about basketball and dreams.
Lin Feng, that is, Gary Smith, chose basketball at the beginning. In addition to his love, he wanted to get his family out of poverty.
As for Perkins, his family environment is good, at least the upper middle class, and his parents have stable jobs.
The old Pa played because he showed his talent in this sport since he was a child, and was favored by the coach, and his journey went smoothly until he missed the game-winning shot.
"If you had entered Oak Hill High School back then, what would it be like now?"
Lin Feng asked jokingly.
After drinking a lot of wine, Perkins' face was ruddy. He was a red-faced guy who drank, but it didn't mean that he had a limited amount of alcohol.
"There is no doubt that I will be No.1 in the league. My three-pointers were already comparable to Curry more than ten years ago."
Perkins likes to brag, which is his greatest pleasure in life.
Lao Yingge applauded, "Cool, I also like shooting three-pointers. It feels great to stand outside the three-point line and wait for the basketball to hit the net. It makes me feel that the focus of the whole world is on basketball."
He is the three-point leader in the Development League, with 384 three-pointers in 713 games, and his shooting percentage in the past year is as high as 47.5%.
It is not too much to say that he is the Curry of NBDL.
Perkins said so excitedly that he almost knocked over the grill when he twisted his body.
"Be careful buddy, I smell your feet are smelly, do you need cumin powder, I bought a lot."
Lin Feng moved the oven carefully, it would be very troublesome to spill it, as there were hot carbon lumps inside.
After drinking happily, Lin Feng took a photo with Lao Yingge and sent it to Kuzma's group.
"Guys, look who I'm having a barbecue with?"
Just after the game, Lin Feng felt something was wrong. Nearly half of the team members were not in last season's team, and they might not be that close to Lao Yingge.
And I only met Lao Zhan once. As for Rondo and the others, they didn't even talk to each other, and they didn't interact much on Twitter. I don't know if it would be impolite to post life photos like this.
After thinking about it, shouldn't the life of young people be so casual.
The memory of Lin Feng's previous life was too restrictive for him, and he had developed a habit of obeying the rules in China, but now he is not used to it.
When the photo was sent out, Kuzma took the lead in congratulating him, posted a series of applauding emojis, and then posted a group photo in April, showing Lao Yingge and the Lakers' fourth youngster.
Lin Feng was sweating a little, Kuzma was really idle, and received his reply not long after his photo was posted.
Soon, Lao Zhan also replied, Lin Feng is still very confident with the boss.
Junior brother, it was him again, this guy played his beloved earthen pipa.
"My brother from New York, why didn't you call me?"
Stephenson's reply made the three of them burst out laughing. Although the junior brother looks unfriendly, he is actually quite funny.
As an opponent, he hated his teeth, and as a teammate, he clapped his hands and cheered.
This is the intuitive reaction Lance Stephenson gave people.
As the "big guy" of the team, Kuzma proposed to hold a team party before the start of the training game, and the proposal was approved by many people.
Lao Zhan likes to go to parties. He thinks this idea is great and can let everyone integrate into the team earlier.
It is easy to say, but it is difficult to implement. Everyone's life trajectory is different, and it is not easy to get together.
If there is such a party, it would be great to get five people together.
Lin Feng will definitely participate, he doesn't like excitement, but these are teammates who will fight side by side in the next year or even years, and there are many challenges waiting for them.
Old Yingge is very envious of Lin Feng's situation. He participated in the NBA draft with full confidence and failed.
Lin Feng got everything he imagined, was selected by the team, took away the official contract, and had a group of teammates who worked hard for the same goal.
That night, Lin Feng helped Lao Yingge pay the taxi fare. Maybe the two could become friends with a 14-year age difference.
In more cases, Lao Yingge plays the role of a mentor. Although his career is very ordinary, he can give Lin Feng some motivation to stick to his dream.
