Chapter 590: Chapter 238 He Doesn’t Understand the NBA!
Michael Jordan was only at UCLA for two days, and it happened to be Su Wan’s day off. He suggested, "How about we form a team and play in the Drew League?"
Kobe was a bit surprised, "You actually know about the Drew League?"
"Why can’t I know?" Su Wan rolled his eyes. "I just don’t know if the old man can handle the intensity of the game."
Kobe also glanced over at Michael Jordan.
The expressions of the two men synchronized:
Mike, can you still handle it?
How could Jordan stand that kind of look?
He immediately said, "How about we make a bet, whoever has the lowest shooting percentage today pays for dinner!"
"You’re done for, Milan’s little iron smith!" Su Wan turned his guns towards Kobe.
Kobe didn’t understand at first, but Su Wan kindly explained. After holding back for a while, Kobe finally spat out, "Fuck off!"
Michael Jordan clapped from the side: "Well cursed!"
Then the three of them each drove a Ferrari to the venue of the Drew League at Charles Drew Junior High School.
The Drew League was established in 1973 and gradually grew to become the hottest amateur league in Los Angeles.
The league really became famous amongst the domestic basketball fans next summer when the League shut down, and big names like Kobe joined the Drew League teams to stay in shape. Its fame rose to a new level, indeed becoming the hottest amateur league in the United States.
Now, it was already the hottest amateur league in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles basketball enthusiasts considered every summer their "NBA season."
From June to mid-September, Charles Drew Junior High was always exceptionally lively.
Today was no exception.
And when three Ferraris drove into the gates of Drew Junior High, the roar of the engines immediately caught everyone’s attention, as the crowd turned to look at the three sports cars.
"Energetic guys" were whistling, "Spiritual Little Sisters" couldn’t wait to come forward and touch the cars.
But at that moment, they all dared not approach.
They just sent the parking valets to go up and open the doors.
However, the valet who approached the first car and saw the figure emerging from inside was taken aback...
Was that...
Michael Jordan?
What was he doing here?
"Wow!"
"Michael!"
"OMG!"
The crowd saw the overbearing Michael Jordan lean out of the driver’s seat, stylishly handing the car keys to the approaching valet, and casually slipping him an Andrew Jackson.
The parking valet nodded and bowed excitedly.
From the second car, Kobe also popped his head out at that moment, with a cocky expression that looked like he deserved a beating.
The cheers at the scene went up another level.
Finally, Su Wan made his appearance, completely setting off the crowd. He refused the approaching valet and picked another eager young woman, tossing the car keys to her. Of course, the tip was still one note per person.
He didn’t need to care about this amount of money now.
He didn’t want to cultivate an idiotic persona of having a net worth in the millions but being too stingy to use wifi.
The young woman was so excited she almost wanted to drag Su Wan off to a hotel on the spot.
Kobe, seeing Su Wan flirt wherever he went, called out disgustedly, "Can you hurry up? Stop wasting time!"
Su Wan retorted, "Now you realize we’re wasting time? If you hadn’t taken the wrong road, we’d have arrived already!"
But his response was completely drowned out by the cheers of the crowd.
The basketball enthusiasts were dazzled and didn’t know who to focus on first.
One was an NBA legend, another the "City Son" of Los Angeles, and the third was currently the hottest, with four championships in five years—an astonishing superstar.
What were they doing here?
Playing in the Drew League?
That was the question on the fans’ minds as well as when they entered the court, all the players’ bewilderment.
"Michael, it’s Michael!"
"Holy shit, Kobe!"
"Su Wan, OMG! Su Wan is here!"
"Am I high? Please tell me this isn’t a dream!"
"Michael, Kobe, and Su Wan... is it really them?"
...
A group of people couldn’t believe their eyes.
Su Wan glanced at the two teams that were about to play and walked over to one of them, smiling and saying, "Bro, can you add three more? We’re not very good at this!"
The player who was asked was still in a daze, then nodded vigorously, "Y-yes, of course!"
He immediately called his teammates over to discuss which three would make room.
The rules of the Drew League were simple and casual; teams scheduled to play that day could form teams freely, and last-minute additions were allowed.
"Go for broke, tonight we ride" was a very common occurrence in the league.
The discussion almost turned into a brawl, after all, who wouldn’t want to play with Jordan, Kobe, and Su Wan?
Kobe, running out of patience, said outright, "Why don’t you guys just take turns!"
Their brains finally kicked back in:
Right!
Not only had their brains crashed, but the opponents had too; they all wanted to get on the court and go head-to-head with the three legends.
Eventually, Kobe stepped forward with a stern face and asked again, "Are we playing or what?"
They finally settled on five players.
Every one of them wore a "Mom, I’ve made it" expression.
The result, of course, was an overwhelming victory. Kobe and Su Wan were currently pyramid-like figures on the league’s power rankings, and Michael Jordan, even two years later, was still able to hold his own against rookie players. Playing in the Drew League was no different from a show game for him.
The score was a crushing 119 to 67.
