Chapter 7 The Curtain Opens
The Lakers are one of the most popular teams in the league and have many fans.Even with a poor record last season, the ticket price is still the highest in the league.

Since it was the opening game, and the next game was an away game against the Rockets led by Yao Mai, the CCTV Sports Channel sent Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping to guide and explain the game from the sidelines.In the past, this is a treatment only available in the playoffs or finals.

TNT is affiliated to Time Warner and headquartered in Los Angeles.

Amy Johnson, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley can be described as the three treasures of TNT. They all came to the Staples Center to report and explain the opening game of the regular season.

There are hundreds of entrances and exits in the Staples Center. Fans enter the stadium early, browse the surrounding shops, or take photos with the huge posters of the players on the front, and have a great time.

Gao Fei carried the Nike one-shoulder sports backpack presented by Kobe, and walked straight into the locker room from the player-only passage.

The locker room of the home team is brightly lit and looks high-end and elegant.

The equipment manager took out Goofy's sneakers from his backpack and handed them to him.

Gao Fei took over the AJ11 sneakers and felt something was wrong.He picked up the shoes and saw that the pair in his hand was newer than his.

"Wright, did you give me a pair of other people's shoes by mistake?" As he spoke, he handed the shoes to the equipment manager Wright.

Wright identified it carefully and said, "That's right. Kobe saw that the soles of your shoes are almost worn out, and I will give you two new pairs of sneakers, one for home and one for away."

"Is there such a good thing?" Gao Fei took the sneakers to the locker with his name on it, played with it for a while, and felt that the workmanship was similar to the pair he bought in China.But being able to wear new sneakers is a happy thing after all.

Although the sneakers are new, they are no different from Gao Fei's previous styles.He sets them aside and turns to look at the gold and purple-rimmed jerseys in the locker.

There are almost no advertisements in the NBA jersey, which looks very plain. The number 6 on the back is the surname, and GAO represents the ownership of this jersey.

Goofy's figure is about the same as Kobe's, and the jersey sizes of the two are similar, but there are many commendable past stories behind the No. 8 jersey, and the story of the No. 6 jersey has not yet begun to be written.

Away team locker room!
The Heat reached the Eastern Conference Finals last season. If it wasn't for Wade's accidental injury, there is a certain chance of reaching the Finals.This season they are strong and strong, and they are eyeing the championship position.

This team not only has O'Neal, Gary Payton, Alonzo Mourning and White Chocolate, who are still hot, but also Toutuo Walker.More importantly, Wade has become the mainstay of the team, supporting the perimeter.

Mourning served as O'Neal's backup and occasionally partnered.This one-kidney fighter admires the big man sitting next to him.

"Shaq, they swept the Lakers last season," Mourning said. "It seems like a long time ago."

With a hoarse voice, O'Neal clenched his fists and said with a smile: "The Lakers' inside combination is Kwame Brown and Lamar Odom. Destroy them and experience the joy of defeating the old club again."

Mourning laughed and said, "It's rare for the Lakers management to show off. Kwame Brown is not good at all. They even sent Caron Butler away and traded him to the team."

"Their trading vision has always been bad." O'Neal was traded by the Lakers, so he would naturally feel a little resentful.

He has a large body, but his mind is a little small.

Of course, a genius with a physical talent like O'Neill does have the capital to be arrogant.

As a shooting guard, Wade has played against Kobe several times and was very impressed.He kept a relatively low profile and didn't get involved in the conversations between the big men.

Haslem and Wade are rookies in the same class. They serve as starting power forwards. They are a bit short in height in the same position. They are responsible for opening up space and are blue-collar workers who work hard.

Although the Heat are stronger, the number of reporters surrounding the visiting team's locker room is much smaller than that of the home team's locker room.

Gao Fei played amazingly in several preseason games, his gorgeous style of play is popular, and his peripheral products are very popular.

Kobe came to the arena.Wearing a flaxen suit and black sunglasses, he walked into the locker room and saw Goofy in a Lakers uniform. He thought he was more energetic than he was in the preseason.

"Did you put on the shoes I gave you?" Kobe and Goofy clapped hands and asked by the way.

Gao Fei pointed to the shoes on his feet with his left hand, and said, "I don't know why, but I feel that these shoes are more comfortable to wear than mine."

"The sneakers are much the same, but the real trick lies in the insoles." Kobe walked to the front of the locker, turned his head and said, "These two pairs of shoes are worthless, and the two pairs of insoles are worth tens of thousands of dollars each."

"WC!" Gao Fei couldn't help but swear, secretly distressed.

He has been frugal recently, with only a few hundred dollars left. When he heard Kobe say that the two pairs of insoles were worth [-] dollars, his first reaction was not to be grateful, but to want Kobe to give him the cash directly.In layman's terms, he has been anxious about money recently, showing signs of being poor and crazy.

The thought is fleeting.As long as the game is over and the first salary of the new season is received, his plight will be eased.

Gao Fei thanked Kobe and put on the Lakers golden warm-up suit.He looked at the watch in the locker room and realized that it was very close to the start of the game.

Kobe began to change jerseys, and the locker room returned to calm.

The teammates came to the locker room one after another as if they had made an appointment, hurriedly changed their equipment, and waited for the first game of the new season.

Phil Jackson wore a black suit and a gold and purple tie, looking bright.

Bryant, who had worked with Phil Jackson for several years and was relatively familiar, made a joke about the bright tie.

The team members laughed heartily, slightly dispelling the tension of the imminent battle.

Phil Jackson was more tolerant, briefly talked about the opening strategy, and then waited for the entry with the players.

Director Yu Jia and Director Zhang have already started explaining. The director's camera locked on the Hollywood stars on the sidelines, and the two pronounced their names.

"Lakers fan Nicholson." "Snoop Dogg." "Leonardo DiCaprio." "Britney Britney." "Anne Hathaway."…

After the director shot, Yu Jia praised: "As expected of Los Angeles, there are many big-name stars here."

Director Zhang said: "Only the Lakers have this kind of appeal in the league. The Clippers in the same city can't attract so many stars."

The players entered the field from two player channels respectively, interrupting the two commentators talking about the star fans.

Gao Fei turned on the system mode before warming up for shooting, and looked at the two leading stars of the Heat.

There are many values ​​​​appearing on O'Neill, and he observed some more important content.

O'Neal: Low post dominance SSS, strength SSS, free throw D, agility S.

After reading these items, Gao Fei understood O'Neill's weakness.Turning his gaze to Wade, a bunch of blue light energy-like values ​​also appeared.

Wade: Breakthrough SSS, mid-range shooting S+, long-range shooting B+, single defense A, assistance defense S.

Gao Fei had a general understanding of the characteristics of the two cores of the Heat, turned off the system mode, and started shooting to warm up.

The magic system has many buffs, but the game is played on its own.
