"Then I will be in vain for this 1,000 yuan."

Walker looks like an investment boss.

Sun Hao nodded with a smile, probably because he vomited more from behind than he ate.

then……

Half a month later.

Training camps for each team have ended one after another.

O'Neal, still losing weight.

And slowly, other players also knew that O'Neal was really serious this time.

Because not only aerobic training, O'Neal's diet is being adjusted.

He used to be 5 meals a day, but now he has compressed 4 meals.

Moreover, those high-calorie foods are being replaced one after another, replaced by low-calorie chicken and fish.

Although, except Sun Hao, no one else could understand where O'Neal's motivation came from.

But the only winner in Walker's bet was Sun Hao.

Walker also vomited thousands of dollars out.

"Let's go, please go to the nightclub and have fun."

Sun Hao didn't expect that the money he got was much more than expected, and the original meal plan turned into a nightclub plan.

He is not Kobe. In a place like Los Angeles, it is most convenient to go to nightclubs for favors.

And what Sun Hao didn't expect was that when he won the bet this time, Walker was a little...infatuated with him.

"How did you know Shaq could hold on?"

"Antoine, before making an investment, you must have enough knowledge of him to get a lot of returns, because all investments are risky."

Sun Hao, making up his messes seriously.

However, he was right.

He is traveling through time, not God. He can win by betting because he knows that O'Neal made up his mind this time.

Walker nodded seriously, and then seemed to be really obsessed with Sun Hao.

Sun Hao held his forehead for a while.

But...this is not a bad thing.

In most people's eyes, people like Walker are troublesome off-court players, and they are even named "thorny".

But this type of player has one thing in common, and is loyal.

Iverson, Marbury, Cousins, Barnes... etc., are mostly like this.

After the training camp ended, the teams quickly began the preseason competition.

The Lakers played at home in the opening game of the preseason, and the opponent was the Timberwolves.

Garnett has been struggling for a summer, and the team he wants to go can't go. The team finds him a good place but he doesn't want to go, so he finally stayed with the Timberwolves.

However, in this context, the Timberwolves management tried their best to find his biggest helper James.

Mike James.

Although not called LeBron, Mike James performed very well last season.

At the age of 31, he played for the Raptors last season, averaged 20.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game, and he even scored 2.1 three-pointers with a 44.3% three-point shooting percentage!

You should know that he plays as a double-energy guard. At this time, Sun Hao, the first player in the league, was a double-energy guard.

Moreover, his three-point output and efficiency are also very high.

This can be called the "beggar version" Sun Hao.

Originally, the parent team would generally renew their contracts for such performance.

However, the Raptors got Byron Davis at the draft, so they naturally didn't want him.

After the final battle, the Timberwolves won the price with the highest price and recruited it under a four-year, 30 million contract.

With James as his helper, Garnett was temporarily calm and wanted to give it another try with the Timberwolves.

After all, after ten years of his career, wolf blood has flowed in his body.

In the first game of the preseason, Phil Jackson was very serious and sent out the entire main lineup at the beginning.

Sun Hao, Percy, Ariza, Walker, O'Neal.

Although Hill couldn't play, she sat on the sidelines in a suit and tie, making the Lakers' bench shine brightly.

Before the game started, Garnett brought his teammates together like he did in the past.

A burst of passionate chicken soup, a symbol of diplomatic roar, and the Timberwolves' morale was high.

However, the Timberwolves were pressed to the ground and rubbed.

Especially Mike James, when the "beggar version" meets the genuine version, it will immediately reveal its true form.

Not to mention anything else, this guy seems to have glue on his hands.

As long as he gets the ball, he won't think about coming out again.

Even Garnett asked for the ball, this guy didn't give it to him every time!

Of course sticky balls seem to be a common problem for James, and this is not the most critical issue.

The most important thing is that he can't score the goal against Sun Hao!

Not only did he not score the ball, but he was cut two from the front in the first quarter alone!

That scene is really a life-threatening one!

Old fans seem to feel like Sun Hao is back in Europe to play!

Obviously not the NBA's level is the same as the Champions League at the beginning of the century, nor is it the Mike James's strength.

But Sun Hao's defense has become stronger!

Mike James is the only one who blames him for his bad life.

Sun Hao has been practicing hard for a summer and unlocked the badge. He must have wanted to try the effect at the beginning of this season.

As a result, Mike James unfortunately "died under the knife".

Moreover, O'Neal's condition is obviously better than last season.

Although half a month and the weight loss method is different from the devilish training that Riley had in history, O'Neal lost very limited weight.

But for O'Neal, it's enough.

The feeling of a lighter body allows him to perform as much as he wants.

This is very obvious in the food abuse bureau.

Isn't the Timberwolves' starting center Mark Blunt just a dish in front of the Sharks?

The fans on the scene also felt comfortable watching, especially when they saw Garnett's assisted defense could not stop O'Neal from playing, they felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

O'Neal, 34, is more fragrant than Garnett, who is 30 years old!

The Lakers didn't make that deal in the summer, and they really made a profit.

After halftime, the Lakers led by nearly 20 points 58 to 38.

In history, Garnett was also in the Timberwolves, and Mike James also joined the Timberwolves at a lower price.

Even the Timberwolves had Ricky, I thought James was here to assist me Davis.

But they ranked second to last in the West.

In other words, the Timberwolves are now a team that is even better than the bottom.

Such a score is really normal.

In the second half, all the starters of the Lakers changed into training uniforms and sat down, chatting and resting.

Phil Jackson had a headache during training camp.

To cure his problem, we can only rely on preseason.

As the saying goes, whoever plays better in the preseason and is in better shape will use whoever is in better shape.

Very fair way.

On the Timberwolves' side, the head coach did not let Garnett go up again.

It doesn't make sense to put it on and chase the score back. If you can't catch it back, you will be completely out of the cards.

However, after Sun Hao did not come back, Mike James suddenly became resurrected.

He led the Timberwolves' main players to play sternly with the Lakers' substitute group, both back and forth.
