Chapter 3 Unfair World
The celebration of Kentucky Wildcats continued into the evening, and a party was held in the hotel where they stayed.
Students from the University of Kentucky, school staff, parents of players, and celebrities from Kentucky in the basketball circle all came to participate in the event. The party scene was quite spectacular, because many of the people present were big men over 2 meters.
As the top basketball school in the United States, Kentucky has proud resources and has a lot of talents in the basketball world.
Calipari and Anthony Davis remained the focus of everyone.
Kalipari issued a thank-you statement on the stage, which received warm applause and cheers from others.
Anthony Davis remained silent in the face of media people's interrogation on the draft, and he said he needed to think about it seriously.
Li Liang knew that Anthony Davis would definitely participate in the NBA draft this summer.
Although he is just a freshman, this is what all NCAA talented players will do, playing for a year in the NCAA as a springboard, and then entering the professional league to get a million dollars in salary.
Not only for money, but also because the NBA now values player potential more and more.
It has become less and less likely that it will take four years to go to college like Tim Duncan, or three years like a star in the 1980s.
If a player stays in college for three or four years before participating in the draft, it is either because he is not talented enough or because there is no one to choose him at all.
Of course, there are also Horford, Brewer, Noah and others in the team, who stayed together for the junior year like the University of Florida in 2006-07, in order to help the team achieve two consecutive championships, and they stayed together for the junior year before participating in the NBA draft, and they succeeded.
This situation is very rare after all, and Anthony Davis doesn't need it.
He has achieved the NCAA championship achievement, which many NBA superstars cannot achieve. Now only the NBA battlefield is waiting for him.
Thinking of this, Li Liang had to sigh at the injustice of life.
He found an opportunity to leave the party venue silently and went upstairs to return to his own room in the hotel.
Compared with the lively party scene, the room was deserted and everything outside was isolated.
Li Liang took off his clothes and lay on the bed. He took a deep breath and thought to himself that the world is indeed unfair, but God closed some doors and always opened some windows.
Even opened a back door.
Soon, Li Liang fell asleep, but his dreams looked different from others.
[Welcome to the All-Round King Training Ground again, visitor: Bruce Lee, 6-foot-9, and 227 pounds]
It turned out that two weeks ago, after Li Liang fell into a coma after experiencing a waterfall incident, he inexplicably entered the so-called "all-round king" training ground, and since then he has become a member of the army of thousands of systems.
Li Liang was very excited about this and thought that he would become an NBA superstar with this system, realize his life dream, and reach the peak of his life.
But soon he found that things weren't that simple.
【Whether to continue the task.】
A dialog box popped up in front of Li Liang's eyes. Li Liang thought about it and chose Yes.
It has been more than two weeks since I owned this system, but Li Liang still hasn't completely figured out what functions it has.
Because in two weeks, he had not even completed the first task, and every time he came in, it was this conversation interface.
After choosing "Yes", Li Liang felt darkness in front of him, but he was not panicked, and he knew what would happen next.
Soon, the surroundings became brighter and he came to a basketball court.
This venue looks a bit old and not as shiny as the New Orleans Arena, and it looks more like a city hall.
[Task: The first step of the All-Ambition King, Time: November 22, 1950, Location: Minneapolis Auditorium, Minnesota, USA, vs. Minneapolis Lakers VS Fort Wien Pistons, Mission Requirements: Lead the Lakers to defeat the Pistons, score 30 points in personal data, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists]
It turned out that Li Liang was teleported to an NBA game in 1950.
That was the NBA arena more than 60 years ago, and it was basically two different games from today's NBA.
The stadium was renovated from the auditorium. The ceiling was decorated with beautiful patterns, bright chandeliers, and the floor was made of maple, which was a bit dark in color.
The audience was full of viewers, wearing dark tweed coats, top hats in their hands, and some with canes. The female audience was conservative, and many were permed with curly hair, all dressed in old-school Americans.
The scene was buzzing a little noisy, but it was much quieter than the New Orleans Arena.
Li Liang was wearing the Minneapolis Lakers jersey and sat off the court. He was going to represent the Lakers tonight.
Before heading to Los Angeles, the Lakers were located in Minneapolis, the country of thousands of lakes, so the name Lakers was found.
When Li Liang first entered this mission, he was surprised by the extreme reality of the scene, and he thought that this mission must be very simple.
Although this is the NBA arena, this is the NBA in 1950.
There is no three-point line, and the three-second zone is only 6 feet. The players are all white. Their physical fitness is two levels different from the current players, and their technical level is three levels worse.
Li Liang is confident that with his ability as the chief water dispenser administrator of the NCAA championship team, completing tasks is not a problem.
But this took more than two weeks to do it, and Li Liangli was still a little worse than completing the task.
At this time, the game on the court had already begun, with Lakers center George McCann and Pistons center Larry Foster jumping in the middle circle.
Li Liang sat on the bench and knew that the ball must have been jumped by Foster because he had watched it more than a dozen times.
After the Pistons got the ball, they dribbled through half the game and immediately handed the ball to center Foster.
Foster stood near the center circle and did not go to the basket. George McCann, who was facing him, had already organized joint defense in the interior.
Then Foster stood there with the ball, motionless.
Yes, he just stood there and stopped moving!
At the beginning, Li Liang thought there was something wrong with the system, so he tried to correct it.
As a result, he was stopped by the referee and took a foul.
Later, after going out of the system space, Li Liang checked the Internet and found out that this game was a famous low-scoring battle in NBA history!
At that time, the 24-second rule had not been implemented yet, and one side could control the ball for unlimited time.
Before this game in 1950, the Wienburg Pistons had never won the Lakers since the NBA was founded in 1946.
The Lakers have won 29 consecutive home games at their home court, and Pistons coach Mory Mendenhall doesn't want the Pistons to be the 30th sword.
Therefore, on the way he came, he held a meeting to discuss with the players and decided to adopt a "shameless" ball-handling tactic, stand there with the ball and not attack, and spend time until he gets an excellent opportunity before executing the offense.
The final score of this game was 18:19, which was lower than the current NBA season score, and the Pistons finally won.
The total scores of both sides are only 37 points, while the task requires Li Liang to score 30 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists?
The scores he created by himself have combined to have 40 points, which is higher than the total scores of both teams in history. How can I play this?
Moreover, at the beginning, he was a substitute and had to wait until Lakers coach John Kundera replaced him on the court before he could start the mission.
He tried to communicate with Kundera, but he didn't get any response. He was just an NPC.
The Lakers players and Lakers fans at the scene were both confused and didn't know what was going on for a moment.
When they reacted, the audience couldn't help but curse, and some people even threw newspapers and coins into the venue.
But the players on both sides still seemed to cast a destiny spell, and some fans couldn't bear it and chose to leave the field one after another.
Li Liang couldn't help it, and while cursing "My Fucking Mother", he could only wait patiently, waiting for John Kundera to send him on the field.
This time he swore that he must complete this task.
Chapter completed!
