Chapter 951 Announcement of Comeback

Li Ba stayed here until the third day, and did not leave until all the corpses of his compatriots were disposed of.

For the next ten days or so, he was looking for work in this area, doing whatever he could, helping dig people out, carrying people, and transporting supplies. He was all dirty, and no one knew who he was.

There are many people like him, and no one knows who they are until they leave.

Half a month later, Li Ba returned from the disaster area exhausted both physically and mentally.

When I went there, I weighed about 120 kilograms, which was five kilograms heavier than when I retired. When I came back, I was less than 110 kilograms, and I had lost more than 10 kilograms. I looked completely different, and my energy level was much worse.

This trip to Wenchuan made him truly understand that nothing is important but the safety of his family.

Li Ba stayed at home for half a month before his energy gradually recovered, but his weight has not yet been restored.

At this time, the NBA Finals was almost over, and the Lakers led the Cavaliers three to two.

The Cavaliers eliminated the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals, but still lost to the powerful Lakers. However, after five games, the scores were very close, which shows that they are strong and not much weaker than the Lakers.

Today is June 17th, the G6 game of the Finals. If the Lakers win, they will win the championship, and if they lose, it will be a tiebreaker.

After breakfast in the morning, Li Ba sat in front of the TV with Guoguo in his arms.

Guoguo is almost eight months old and can stand now. She has no choice but to inherit Li Ba's physique. Her physical fitness is so good that she rarely catches colds after birth and is much healthier and stronger than ordinary babies.

"Come on, Guoguo, call daddy. Daddy, mommy, daddy..." Li Ba teased the little girl.

Eight months is already the time for baby talk. The little girl has been opening her mouth recently, but she can't speak clearly, so she needs to keep demonstrating.

The little girl looked up at Li Ba, giggled, and scratched Li Ba's face with a pair of small hands, with innocent laughter blooming on her little face.

"Dad." Li Ba said again.

"Eight-eight!"

The little girl opened her small mouth and gave a crisp cry.

Li Ba was startled and immediately laughed.

At this moment, the huge sense of satisfaction made him feel like he had gained the whole world.

"Sissi, Guoguo called me daddy!" He turned around and shouted to the girl in the back room.

"Really?" The girl ran out with a face of joy, hugged the little girl and teased: "Be good, baby, can you call me mommy?"

"Mom!"

The little girl shouted happily.

"good!"

The girl's eyes widened with a smile, and she kissed the little girl hard.

The little girl is also strange. Sometimes she will cry when Li Ba kisses her hard, but no matter how much her mother kisses her or punishes her, she will not cry. At most, she will have a flat mouth.

More than two hours later, the Lakers defeated the Cavaliers and won the 2007-08 championship with a score of 4 to 2.

Li Ba looked at the wildly celebrating Staples Arena, pointed at the TV, and said to the little girl Guoguo: "Look, Guoguo, these are all defeated by daddy. Wait until this time next year, and watch daddy give you Win a championship."

An hour later, Li Ba tried to call, but got a busy signal.

Almost two hours later, the call came through.

"Hey, Hammer, have you seen it?" Dayao's excited voice sounded.

"Is one ring enough? Not enough for me to take another year off?" Li Ba joked.

"Come on, don't look at the Suns' current lineup. It's useless if you come back next season. I'll still beat you."

Dayao laughed.

As the finals ended, Gao Yuanyuan also rushed to the United States.

During this period, she was even busier than Li Ba. She was busy looking for supplies all over the world and moving supplies to the disaster area. Now that the finals are over and the draft will start soon, she is even busier.

She has three guys with high draft prices waiting for her. Among them, Derrick Rose is still the favorite to be the No. 1 pick, and Kevin Love and Russell Westbrook are also among the top six picks.

When she arrived in the United States, her first stop was Phoenix to officially notify the Suns of Li Ba's comeback.

Boss Sarver was so happy that the first thing he did was to send several trainers from the team to China to help Li Ba train. The second thing he did was to quickly hold a press conference to announce that Li Ba would Come back next season.

This news shocked the league and also cheered up the live broadcast company TNT.

In the season when Li Ba retired, there was no quadruple-double, no 5*5 average per game, no 10+ blocks and steals in a game, no 20+ and 30+ rebounds in a single game, and no quintuple-double. The ball market shrank. Nearly half, the market value of all teams has dropped by half.

His return was welcomed by everyone in the league.

President Stern held a special press conference to welcome Li Ba's return.

At the same time, Adidas also held a press conference and announced that it would launch a new Warhammer series of sneakers before the start of next season.

Before Gao Yuanyuan left Phoenix, Arum called her.

"Gao, does Hammer have any plans to make a comeback in the boxing ring?" Arum asked.

"Now he is preparing for the Olympics and then the start of the season, so boxing is not yet on his mind. Even if it is, it will be after next season." Gao Yuanyuan said.

"Gao, please convince the Hammer that professional boxing is the most suitable sport for him to come back." Arum said.

Mrs. Liz also called later, and Gao Yuanyuan responded as usual.

Li Ba's comeback allowed the Suns to start preparations.

Sarver was very dissatisfied with Cole's work last season. This time he emphasized that he must build a suitable lineup and wait for the return of the Hammer, otherwise he will get out.

That morning Li Ba drove to the county for training, and Yatou followed with Guoguo in her arms.

During training, Li Ba wanted to show off in front of his wife and daughter on a whim, so he performed several flying and heavy dunks in a row.

"Dad, fly! Fly..."

Guoguo was very excited, dancing and shouting non-stop.

"Dad, does it look like a plane? Woohoo..." Li Ba ran over and imitated the way a plane flew, teasing his daughter.

"Woooooooooo..." The little girl immediately learned to do it.

On June 20, the men’s basketball training camp began.

Li Ba's family arrived in Beijing on the 19th and moved into Baylor Mansion.

On the day of the training camp, he went to the Basketball Association to report.

The Mavericks were very strong this year, but were also eliminated by the Grizzlies in the second round. Da Zhi has also returned to China. He met Li Ba a while ago and participated in the training camp this time.

Daba was still in the United States and got another ring, but this time it was a pity that Li Ba was right. The national team insiders were luxurious enough, so he was not called up by the national team.

The men's basketball team for this year has basically been confirmed, including Li Ba, Dayao, Da Zhi, Ah Lian, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Chen Jianghua, Li Nan, Liu Wei, Sun Le, Du Feng, Wang Lei and Zhang Qingpeng.

In terms of the coaching staff, they include team leader Hu Jiashi, head coach Yunus, coaches Guo Shiqiang, Gong Xiaobin, Sun Jun and Nelson.
