Leaving Inglewood, the four moved to a courtyard in East Los Angeles.

This is the middle-class district of Los Angeles, with single-family houses with gardens and garages.

Zhu Shu chose it for a while and thought that although the rent here was not cheap, the environment was very good.

It's relatively close to Stamps Center, and driving to Toyota Center for training is not too far.

After arriving at the new house, Li Liang looked at it and it was indeed much spacious than before.

A yard, a garage, and a two-story single-family house.

Downstairs is a spacious living room, kitchen, upstairs with four bedrooms and a small studio.

There was actually a basketball stand in the backyard, which made Li Liang very satisfied.

However, the rent is really a bit expensive. Li Liang’s annual salary is $500,000 now, but he still has to deduct taxes, broker fees, and various expenses.

If you rent such a house, there is really not much left.

Bai Xiaoting seemed to see Li Liang's concern and said, "You don't have to worry about the money. I will bear half of the rent, and I won't live in vain."

Li Liang said: "You take half of it? Oh, we are like that..."

Bai Xiaoyun said: "What are you talking nonsense? I don't want to take advantage of you."

Li Liang said: "Like a partner, what are you thinking about? It's dirty."

Bai Xiaoting was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she went upstairs alone to clean up her studio.

Zhu Shu was busy, and Li Liang poured her a glass of water and handed it to her, "Thank you for your hard work recently."

Zhu Shu took the water cup, shook her head, and said, "It's okay, nothing."

Li Liang watched Zhu Shu drink water, and a light red mark was left on the cup.

In the past, she didn't put on much makeup when she was in college, but now she has learned to put on very exquisite makeup.

Her glasses changed from the big black frame of the past to small gold wire edges, looking more mature and capable.

I was timid in college, but now I deal with all kinds of people and I am generous.

In this world, everyone is constantly changing and growing.

Li Liang looked at Zhu Shu and said, "Hey, do you want to sleep with me at night?"

Zhu Shu, who was originally calm and composed, almost choked out with a sip of water and her face turned red again.

"Sleep... are you unable to sleep well again? Are you tired of playing games? Do you want to have a Thai massage... There is a family nearby..." Zhu Shu was a little incoherent.

Haha, this is Zhu Shu that Li Liang is familiar with. He smiled, "Just kidding, I'll go up and see my own room!"

Alas, it's a joke again, it would be great if he doesn't joke.

...

On the first night of the new home and new room, Li Liang fell asleep and entered the system to do tasks.

With a system to sleep with, what other women do you need? Is it fun for women to have a system?

Li Liang turned on his six-dimensional ability and entered the task of [Basic Defence in the Interior] in his defensive ability again.

The last time I completed Chris Webber's debut, I don't know which unlucky guy will be the turn tonight.

[Task, curb Kevin Garnett's debut, time: November 3, 1995, location: Sacramento Arco Arena, USA, against: Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Sacramento Kings, Mission Requirements: Don't let Kevin Garnett score. Mission Reward: Basic Defensive Ability 5 in the Inside, High-Level Assistant Defense 3, Block 2, Random Value Additive, Mission Difficulty: Rookie]

Oh, it turned out to be a big jump shot from the iron-blooded chest and fighting and retouching push-ups. Kevin - Green Wolf - Garnett!

This task is the same difficulty as in the previous game, and it is at the rookie level.

However, the task requirements have been greatly improved, and I actually have to seal Garnett!

System, you are a bit ruthless. You agreed to contain it. How can you seal it off?

This is a challenge for Li Liang, with a fault tolerance rate of zero.

As long as Garnett scores one, even if he scores a free throw, the mission will fail.

However, Li Liang estimated that Garnett's playing time and performance in this game should not be very good.

Entering the mission, we arrived at the Ako Stadium in 1995.

The starting players of both sides are already standing on the court, and Garnett is not seen in the starting lineup of the Timberwolves.

Like Li Liang, he is both a substitute.

In this game in history, Garnett made a substitute.

And he performed well, making 4 of 4 shots in the game, scoring 8 points, showing good talent.

When the game was in the middle of the first quarter, Garnett took the lead.

Kings head coach Gary Gene replaced Li Liang at the same time, and the two faced each other on the court.

Garnett was only 19 years old this year. Like Durant, he wore a wide jersey and looked like a child.

He is thin and tall, with a childish face, and is not as domineering as the wolf king that people later became familiar with.

Garnett received a lot of attention in this game. Before the game, he wore a white baseball cap and was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.

He is the third high school player to go directly to the NBA after Bill Willoughby and Darrell Dawkins in 1975.

It was exactly 20 years apart.

Just now, Garnett looked a little nervous. He received the ball from the outside for the first time, facing Li Liang, and passed the ball to his teammates.

Li Liang predicted that Garnett's score should come from the frontcourt rebound, layup, dunk, or jump shot from the outside.

Although he is a very talented high school player, Kevin Garnett is not a player like Kobe or Durant who is good at playing ball.

He has a mature style of playing, selflessness, and is very team-playing.

His first offensive opportunity came from a frontcourt rebound from his teammates.

Teammates hooked the ball back from the bottom line and passed it to Garnett at the basket.

Li Liang focused all his attention on Garnett. As soon as Garnett received the ball, Li Liang immediately raised his hands and put them on.

On the confrontation, Garnett will not give him a chance to get off the basket easily.

Garnett took the ball and hit Li Liang, then turned over and hit the board with one hand!

Missed, Li Liang turned around to protect the backcourt rebound.

Huh, it's really dangerous. If he doesn't push it, Garnett's wingspan will definitely hit it easily.

After playing for a few minutes, Garnett has not adapted to the rhythm of the NBA.

His teammates didn't trust him enough, so he ran around for several rounds, and the head coach replaced him off the court.

Li Liang followed suit with zero fault tolerance and was under a lot of pressure.

Li Liang kept following because Garnett had a large attack range, was so tall and had such a long arms. To be honest, he got a rebound at the basket, and then the ball went in with a slight slight stroke.

Li Liang's height and wingspan are not enough, so he can only rely on strength. If he really doesn't work, he will make an early foul.

The basket-wrecking training with seniors like Charles Oakley is still very useful.

Garnett made his debut again in the second half, and Li Liang got on the stage again.

Garnett rolled his eyes, who is this guy? He is so annoying, following me like a fly.

This is how the defender is, you must make your opponent feel annoying.

Garnett's second goal chance came from a fast break.

Teammate Terry Porter quickly passed the ball to Garnett who inserted the wing.

Garnett had to dunk when he received the ball, but the ball was gone.

Li Liang knocked out the ball from the side.

"Pay attention to your ball protection. This is not high school anymore." Li Liang also reminded Garnett.

Garnett bared his white teeth and said nothing.

Later, Li Liang got an offensive opportunity. After pick-and-roll, he and his teammates cut inward and caught the ball with a layup with his left hand!

Garnett jumped high, a big hat!

As a result, the ball hit the board first, which interfered with the ball.

The commentator on the scene said, "He could easily give out such a big hat in high school, but this is different, this is NBA."

A high school player who only produced one in 20 years was inevitably questioned and discriminated against in the 1990s when most players studied for three years or even graduated.

The Timberwolves also took great courage to choose him in the fifth pick.

Of course, teams like the Timberwolves seem to have the best results when they choose a few games.

But they seem serious and when they choose seriously, they are actually better off choosing a few things.

Then, Garnett's third chance was a sudden horizontal and inward cut, and after receiving the ball, he turned around and jumped to the hook.

Li Liang reacted quickly enough for this goal. Before Garnett got up to shoot, he hugged him and refused to get up.
