The Lakers flew away from San Francisco overnight and returned to Los Angeles.

After getting off the plane and on the airport bus, coach Vogel said hard work to the players and finally said: "Thank you all the players for their efforts over the past year. Next, everyone will go home and have a good rest. Thank you for your hard work in the season. Goodbye."

Say goodbye, but how many people will actually see each other at the beginning of the season?

After leaving the airport, the players began to return to their own residences.

Wang Yi did not return to his apartment.

Instead, I took the bus directly to the UCLA training hall.

The Lakers lost the tiebreaker, and Wang Yi doesn't blame his teammates.

But he blamed himself.

If you work harder and work harder, you can polish your ball skills to perfection.

If you score more four points, the Lakers can reach the finals and even win the O'Brien Cup.

So how could he rest?

What he has to do now is to train, not rest.

What's more, even if he went back to lie on the bed, his mind would recall his failure over and over again.

That will only make you more painful, so he has to keep himself busy.

It was 4:00 am.

The security guard was still sleeping when he heard a knock on the door.

He was sleepy and had anger in his heart.

I watched the football game at night until 1 o'clock in the evening, and I was woken up again after sleeping less than three hours.

Moreover, he was a little depressed when the Lakers lost the game, but he was woken up by someone at this time, so how could he not get angry?

As soon as he pushed open the window, his anger turned into fak oil and burst out from his mouth.

However, when he saw the figure outside the door, he was slightly stunned.

I saw a lonely figure standing in the mist under the dim street lights.

He is very familiar with this figure.

There is no need to look at the face, he knows who it is based on his figure.

"Wang, why are you here?!"

The security guard was very surprised, and his voice changed a little.

"train."

Wang Yi said.

The security guard was even more surprised.

Just like a few months ago, Wang Yi appeared in front of the training hall for the first time at 5:30 a.m.

"But...but you have just been on the plane for 48 minutes and have been on the plane for more than two hours. Don't you go and take a rest?"

Wang Yi did not answer, but just shook his head.

Seeing this, the security guard quickly opened the door and asked again: "Wang, if you want to rest, you can rest in my bed, although my bed is a little messy."

Wang Yi still shook his head.

Walking slowly towards the training hall, his figure gradually melted into the thick fog under the street lights.

Seeing this, the security guard quickly followed Wang Yi's footsteps.

After Wang Yi came to the training hall and waited here for more than 10 minutes, he was relieved to confirm that Wang Yi was really just practicing football.

"Then I won't bother you."

...

At the same time, Nicole also flew back to Los Angeles on a special plane.

In fact, he has been looking for Wang Yi since the end of the game.

She called Wang Yi a lot but no one answered, and no one replied to the message.

Later, she found out that the Lakers had flew back to Los Angeles overnight, and she quickly contacted her grandfather and flew back to Los Angeles on the family's private plane.

Afterwards, she went to Wang Yi's apartment and couldn't find Wang Yi, so she called James and the coach again.

Although it was already past 4 a.m., they didn't sleep either.

After just experiencing failure, they all had insomnia.

They heard that they could not find Wang Yi, so they quickly called Wang Yi, but no one answered the phone and sent messages.

Nicole was very anxious and had already planned to use the power of the family to investigate Wang Yi's whereabouts.

But at this moment, she suddenly thought of something.

James said that Wang Yi should analyze and judge him based on his personality.

Nicole thought that with Wang Yi's personality, he was probably in the training hall at this time.

So he hurried to the training hall.

It was already past 5 o'clock.

The security guard who had just been sleeping was woken up again, and he was so angry.

"Will people sleep this night?"

But when he saw Nicole standing outside the window, his anger suddenly disappeared: "Nicole, you are at the right time. Wang is in the training hall. I am still worried about what happened to him. It's great that you can accompany him."

Before Nicole could speak, the security guard said first.

"I'll take you there now."

Nicole, don't follow the security guard to the training hall.

Bang—bang—bang—

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the training hall, I heard the sound of basketballs colliding with the ground constantly coming.

Nicole's heart trembled, as if it began to beat with the sound of a basketball.

When he opened the door of the training hall, he saw Wang Yi practicing three-point shooting at the three-point line.

Nicole saw that Wang Yi was soaked all over, and even his hair was covered with sweat.

Tears couldn't help but burst into tears.

She wanted to advise Wang Yi not to practice, but she also knew that she couldn't help it.

All she could do was to accompany Wang Yi silently.

The security guard said to Nicole in shock, "Call me anytime if you need anything."

Then he quit.

Wang Yi heard the movement and looked back.

He didn't say anything, but just quickly turned around and continued to practice shooting.

He didn't want Nicole to see his failed expression.

At this moment, Nick seemed to have also felt Wang Yi's mood.

She was not approaching Wang Yi, but stood quietly at the far end of the court.

Silently accompany Wang Yi.

The best comfort is companionship.

Looking at this man more than 20 meters away.

Her tears slid silently along her cheeks.

In this way, neither of them spoke.

Until the sky outside becomes gray from darkness.

Wang Yi is still practicing three points tirelessly.

Nicole didn't say anything, but just turned around and left the training hall silently.

Half an hour later, she brought a breakfast back.

Finally, he spoke to Wang Yi for the first time in the training hall: "Wang, it's time to have breakfast."

Bang—

Swish-

Bang—

The only answers to her was the sound of the basketball rubbing against the basket or the net.
