20. First road trip(1/2)

"Wow...Leo, you are so handsome in formal clothes! Next time there is a party in the school, you can consider making you my male companion."

Vivian looked at Li Ao in a charcoal-gray slim suit, and stars appeared in her eyes.

Li Ao looked at the assistant aunt in the hospital. She looked so much like the granddaughter of the professor next door. The young lady who often broke the computer looked like this every time she saw him.

He liked this dress very much, but he still asked, "Auntie Vivian, can this dress be removed?"

Vivian understood what Li Ao meant and replied: "The gift is not refundable. My mother took a flaw in it, but the thing was flawed, but it was not visible when worn. That store cannot be discounted. The store manager asked us to pick something as a gift. I thought you were going out to play the game soon and couldn't lose my face. So I asked your team to ask for the size of your custom jersey and help you choose a set. If you don't like it, I'll throw it away."

Li Ao could hear the tone of the hospital assistant aunt.

Although he didn't know how rich his family was in the hospital, Dean Totten's fortune was. In this small circle where he lived in the United States, every family had mines, including Dean Teng, who had a lot of stock assets. Judging from his daily consumption capacity, the Aunt's family must have mines... He is the only one who is a pauper.

He usually eats and drinks, but he will never refuse it. He will go back and forth. At most, he treats steaks, burgers, and the other party treats vegetables and fruits.

He did have a need to ask a physiotherapist, and he wrote down the favors.

But a suit is not a necessity. If you don’t owe this favor, it’s better not to owe it.

But when it comes to this, Li Ao decisively took off his suit, straightened it out, put it in the storage bag, and stuffed it into the trunk.

Vivian helped check her luggage. Arizona was warmer than California. She was not very thick in clothes and even brought a red and white machine. She was also drunk, and the little boy just couldn't understand.

The Trojans will play away against the Sun Demons tomorrow, and Li Ao will go to Phoenix City with the team today.

Vivian knew that this was Li Ao's first time going to other cities in the United States outside Los Angeles. She heard that other athletes would want to stroll around in other cities, especially in some special service places. When she arrived at this child, she actually brought a game console to pass the time, which was very good.

Seeing that nothing was missing, Vivian went to the storage room and opened a cabinet, which contained a bunch of mobile phones of different styles, and even the former big brother who was a pretentious weapon... She flipped through the piles of mobile phones.

Finally, he found a satisfied old phone. He opened the back cover and had no battery installed. He looked at the code and called the communications company using the phone he was using.

After calling, he returned to the living room. Vivian handed the old phone to Li Ao: "Phoenix is ​​not very safe. I have activated Arizona communication service for 3 days. When something happens, call the police or call me, and you are not allowed to fight! No one is there to support you."

Li Ao did not refuse to borrow an old phone. He often saw the aunt who assisted the hospital to change her new phone. When he went shopping, he would buy it. Moreover, the price of the mobile phone was not particularly expensive in the past two years. This kind of feature phone has also become popular in China. His parents want him to buy one, but he doesn’t have much phone calls. There are landlines in the apartment. The landlines are charged according to the call time. The mobile communication business in the United States currently has a package duration, and the price is much more expensive than the landlines. It is charged if you use it or not, so I didn’t want it.

But looking at the pink Hello Keti's appearance, the antenna is still two cat ears...

"Auntie Vivian, can you change your phone? I remember you have a cool black phone."

"Ah, you like that, but I've paid the money to the communications company, what should I do?"

Vivian's tone was blaming himself, but his expression...the eyes were crescent.

Knock! Don't give you a chance to struggle!

Li Ao silently put the charger in his suitcase and installed a battery on his phone. After pressing the hang-up button for a while, he could turn on the computer directly. The function machine was so powerful that he didn't need it for a year or two, and the electricity didn't run out of it.

After chatting for a while, the landline in the living room rang, Xavier Johnson called, and his family was here, and he took Li Ao to the airport by the way. Li Ao didn't have to run to school first and then take a bus to pass by here to the airport.

Saying goodbye to the hospital to help the aunt, Li Ao took the free bike of the shooting coach to the airport to meet the team and headed to Phoenix City with the mentality of leaving the province to build a team.



Get on the bus... Go to bed, get off the machine and take pictures, get on the bus and then go to the hotel and take pictures. The team has a cameraman, so the other party asked to take pictures but the other party did not refuse.

When you play away for the first time, you have to leave some souvenirs, wash a few more copies, and give them to others.

Then, Li Ao did not leave the room except for lunch and dinner with the team.

With popularity, no one wants to live in the same room as Shelby Jordan. Since last season, the Trojans have opened a separate room for Shelby Jordan away games, so there must be someone who is lucky enough to live in a single room. This year, Li Ao, the person who is lucky this year.

When I arrived at the away city, I just took the plane. Today, the team did not arrange training to let the players rest. Moreover, when I came to other cities, I had to give them time to visit.

Some teammates were curious about what he was doing and whether he had an appointment with a girl.

As a result, this guy actually played games in the room!

Isn’t this legendary guy who is so energetic that he has to drive a sports car to an appointment with a mature girl to go to a hotel after practicing for several hours?

Recently, Li Ao's black material has begun to increase again.

He showed his strength in the opening game, and for a few days no one has criticized him.

But after Thanksgiving, there were more posts about him being exposed in the school forum.

He used to attack him to be honest, but now he directly put Liam's usual behavior on him.

He has also seen these remarks and is speechless.

By looking at the number of posts, he could guess who did it.

As the saying goes, those who write novels hope to die together. Those fat guys in the class probably think that seeing him doing well in the school team will be so sad again.

He was very sad and angry about this. It was okay if he really did it, but the key was not him who was happy!

But he was really not interested in those flesh and blood.

Some of my teammates also saw the black material and discussed it behind Li Ao's back, but they didn't dare to discuss it in front of this evil star... They were a little suspicious.

But after coming to the hotel in Phoenix City, they saw Li Ao calling on his cell phone to report his safety, and took an expensive suit to the hotel waiter to help iron it... The suit was a gift, and Vivian was telling the truth, but the things in that store were very expensive, and the original price of the gift was not cheap, but it was not as expensive as the custom-made ones in that store... I also thought that this guy often fought and never got dealt with, and in addition, many Chinese students they learned that they spent money like water, so they believed it!

But when this guy came to Phoenix City, he actually stayed in his room to play games!

Teammates speculated that this new teammate who was too energetic might have not met a mature girl.

After a night off, on December 5, the Trojans' third game day arrived.

After lunch, Li Ao put on a handsome suit and followed the team to the Phoenix University Gymnasium.

When Li Ao saw this large comprehensive gymnasium, he thought it was very strange.

Before coming here, he had investigated the information here.

Phoenix University is a famous private university in Phoenix and the largest private university in the United States. It has more than 200 campuses and more than 20 states in the United States, with a total of more than 300,000 students.

Phoenix University Gymnasium is located in the University of Phoenix.

This Phoenix University Gymnasium is not the super-large gymnasium that can accommodate more than 100,000 people in the future, which is often used to hold football games and hold NCAA finals many times, but is a venue within the Phoenix University.

However, Phoenix University is not one of the members of the NCAA Sports Association. Phoenix University Gymnasium does not have much business. Those who hold concerts, product launches, and large-scale events are more willing to hold at the Suns' home court, the Mexican Stadium.

And it's a bit famous here, because it's not because of Phoenix University, but because of the Arizona State University Sun Devils' choice as home court.

As a result, there were tens of thousands of students on the main campus of Phoenix University, and not many people knew the name of their school team that participated in unknown leagues. These wealthy students all became the votes for the Sun Devils.

Earlier, I heard from Liam that Phoenix City has a very unique brain circuit. Several mayors like to do infrastructure one after another, which has emptied all the finances, turning Phoenix City into the most prosperous city in the western region.

These universities are also different.

After coming to the visiting team's locker room and changing into the training uniform, Li Ao put aside his distractions and followed the team to carry out the final preparations before the game.

He was still responsible for listening to it in the third...

Although it is certain that there is not much time to play, Li Ao is still patient and meticulous when it comes to the warm-up session. The opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared, and the skill of "perfect warm-up" needs to be activated.

At 6:30, Li Ao entered the stadium with the team.

It was the first time he was playing away games, and it was also the first time he felt what it was away games.

Most of the people here are students at first glance. If nothing unexpected happens, they are basically top students from Arizona State University and Phoenix University.

Cultural people are different. The words and sentences of cursing people are much more advanced than those of the aunts and uncles who grab vegetables in supermarkets.

Seeing Li Aorao looking around with interest, Henry Bibi snorted lightly, this kid's ability to withstand pressure was beyond expectations.

The Trojans entered the stadium less than two minutes later, and the Sun Devils also entered the court.

Li Ao's eyes were attracted by an opponent's player - Eddie House!

185 cm, point guard's standard height, 80 kg weight, good speed, average strength, and super strong shooting!

Eddie House, who has played two games, averaged 32 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4 assists per game, and ranked first in the field in scoring. He lost the first game against the Wildcats and scored 20 points. In the second game, the Bruins scored 44 points.

According to the comprehensive evaluation of 94, Li Ao has seen the strongest person he has ever seen! In the college basketball world, Eddie House, the senior super pitcher, is like a superstar.

Such a strong opponent, let's leave it to the back teammates for a headache.

At 7 p.m., the game started.

The Trojans are still the starting combination of Granville, Trepaganil, Shelby Jordan, White Mamba and Charles.

The Sun Devils sent Eddie House, Turner Hill, Avi Sreet, Sean Redhager and Chad Pruitt to start.

Just look at the lineup, the Sun Devils are not as squad as the Trojans and the Dukes, but they played so well together.

Their five starters have been fixed since Christmas in 1998-99. The youngest are all juniors, with rich experience in the game and a long time full of tacit understanding. The five of them have the ability to pass the ball.

As the core scorer and the first player in the back line, Eddie House averaged 4 assists per game in the first two games. Small forward Avi Sreet is the first player in the Pacific Ten League. He averaged 9.7 points, 6 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game in his sophomore season last season.

The other three averaged the least assists per game last season with 1.6 times.

The Suns Devils' tactics revolve around creating a shooting opportunity for Eddie House, who can score more than 40 points in a single game, and creating shooting opportunities for others. Avi Sreett serves as a key transit point to help the team make a fierce attack at the beginning.

The Trojans, led by Granville, actually played well in the team's offense, but they were still suppressed by the Sun Devils at the beginning.

However, the situation is not good, and the Trojans coaching staff is not too anxious.

The Sun Devils have been working together for the third year. To be precise, after working together for one and a half seasons, there are still no substitutions in the new season. It can be said that they cooperated so well that no one can replace any of them, but this also means that the Sun Devils have not been able to replace any of them in the past two years.

With the University of Arizona Wildcats, the Sun Devils are just like the Trojans next to the Bruins. All the geniuses go to the Wildcats. The Sun Devils can only eat leftovers, or occasionally there is a talented high school student who would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail joining, and it may not be possible to play.

Such a team can play, which means that a good coach is on the run. Sun Devils head coach Rob Evans led the University of Mississippi rebels to win the Southeast Division championship for two consecutive years in the past few years. He was hired back by the Sun Devils for a large sum of money, which led to the rise of the Sun Devils this time.

Apart from five starters, the Sun Devils' lineup is actually not bad. Rob Evans, like Henry Bibby, has worked so hard in his work over the years, but he has been in the senior year of Eddie House, but he still hasn't found a core player who can take over.
To be continued...
