The eight sets of weapons and equipment did not only consist of guns and ammunition, but also bulletproof vests, scopes, medical kits, individual radios, and other tools.
Li Du had no choice but to fork out money to buy a big safe and lock all the equipment in it.
They were now responsible for the supervision of these weapons and equipment. If they were lost or stolen, they would be held responsible. This was to prevent them from selling the equipment on the grounds that it was stolen.
Locking up the equipment, Li Du took out a basketball from the sports equipment he had just obtained, patted it, and said, "Don't frown. Don't we have other rewards? Come on, let's play ball. "
Hans snatched the basketball and shouted, "God, play basketball? These are not ordinary basketballs, these are star balls worth tens of thousands of dollars! "
Li Du said, "Yes, but they are still basketballs. We can play with them."
"What if the signature is worn off? If that's the case, it won't be easy to sell the ball and we won't be able to get a high price. "Hans disagreed and turned into a miser.
Li Du said, "Who cares? You have to know that if these balls are sold, it will be very difficult for us to get the chance to use the autographed balls of the stars again. Are you willing to give up this opportunity?"
Hans pondered for a moment and reluctantly said, "Alright, you're right. I haven't used a celebrity's autographed ball to play basketball, but how about we play rugby?"
Hugging the football in his arms or throwing it out to play, he didn't have to slap it on the ground all the time, and his signature wouldn't be worn out easily.
Li Du shook his head. He did not know how to play football, but he knew how to play basketball. Besides, they had a basketball expert, Godzilla.
They did not usually exercise together. Treasure hunters did not play ball together. Even if they wanted to exercise, they would go to the gym together. That was because their job was physical work.
Now that there was a ball signed by a celebrity, more people were interested in playing basketball.
Hans shouted, and the treasure hunters who were drinking and chatting in the camp responded. He also called his future brother-in-law, Stephen, and some other friends to invite them to play golf together.
Lu Guan contacted an indoor basketball court. There were many courts on the streets of the United States, but they were made of concrete, which could easily damage the basketball.
They were not afraid of ruining the basketball. What they were afraid of was ruining the star player's signature.
Li Du called the Playboy. The day before in Winslow, the Playboy had helped him chase away the annoying gem hunters. He wanted to thank him in person.
Since the Playboy had just returned to Flagstaff, he accepted Li Du's invitation without hesitation, saying that he would definitely look for him at the stadium.
In this way, they quickly gathered more than ten people, which was enough to form two teams to play.
Americans loved sports. Football, basketball, and baseball were the three most popular sports. They were also the three most popular sports. Most people would play them.
Big Quinn was tall and well-built. Just like Godzilla, he was born to play basketball. Before he started working, he had received semi-professional training and had played on the school team during his high school years.
The group of them drove to the basketball arena. Lu Guan had contacted a small arena with two courts.
In this season, there were not many people playing indoors. The autumn air was refreshing, and the temperature outside was neither too high nor too low. The sun was gentle and warm, which was suitable for outdoor sports.
When he arrived at the arena, Stephen and Hannah were waiting there with some energy drinks and mineral water in their hands.
When she got the ball, Hannah grabbed it and cheered, "Yeah, Dwyane Wade! I like the Flash. Quick, quick, quick, let me take a few pictures! "
Li Du counted. There were exactly 14 men. Including the Playboy, they could be divided into three teams.
He was on the same team as Big Quinn and Godzilla. Seeing this, Dickens shook his head. "How can we fight like this? No, these two guys have to be split up. "
Li Du said, "I don't know how to play, so they'll play with me. Big Fox is also trash. How about we add Big Fox to our team?"
The Playboy said, "I don't know how to play either. Count me in."
Turis said, "Who knows if you guys know how to play? No, we have to split up. "
Li Du was a rascal. He held the ball and said, "Okay, it's settled. You guys split up. Who's going first?"
Hannah patted Stephen and said, "Let them be on the same team. My brother is really trash. Stephen is the pro. He was the captain of our high school team."
Hans rolled his eyes. He was so angry that he did not want to speak.
Everyone could play together, and there was no need to decide who was the winner. The other treasure hunters looked at each other and accepted the suggestion with a shrug.
Li Du stood on the court. Godzilla threw the ball to him and said, "You're the main player?"
There were five positions on the basketball court: one center, two forwards, and two guards. Of the two guards, one was the shooting guard, and the other was the point guard. The point guard was responsible for controlling the ball and organizing the team's offense.
In terms of body size, the center was usually the tallest and most powerful, while the point guard was the shortest. It required skillful skills and a clear mind.
Li Du's skills were average, but he was the shortest among the five. He was only suitable to be the point guard.
He controlled the ball and tried it out. The quality of the ball was good. It was made of genuine calf leather and was very smooth and soft. It felt sticky to the touch. It was a good ball.
Besides them, there was also Stephen, Dickens, and Lu Guan's team in the first round.
Li Du laughed. "You guys chose a bunch of shorties?"
Dickens gave him the middle finger. "We're going to play small ball. We're going to run and bomb, just like the Warriors led by Old Nelson. Just wait to be bombed by us."
The ball was in their hands. They would attack first. Ten balls per game.
Stephen was the main player. After he got the ball, he dribbled skillfully and exclaimed, "Good ball."
Hans gave Li Du a push and said, "You go guard him. Be careful. Hannah is right. This b * stard is a good basketball player. I guess my sister was conquered by his performance on the basketball court."
Li Du stepped forward and said confidently, "Watch me."
Compared to his offense, he was more confident in his defense.
Steve dribbled the ball with his left hand. The ball bounced in his hand like a good boy. He ran to the three-point line and looked at his running teammates and Li Du in front of him. He smiled and said, "You're too far away."
Li Du opened his arms and said, "Then you shoot the three-pointer. I won't defend."
Hearing this, Steve took a step forward and collected the ball. He used his calf muscles to jump easily. He held the ball in his right hand and flicked his wrist. The ball flew out quickly.
Swoosh! There was a crisp sound. Li Du looked back and saw the ball fall into the net.
"Damn accurate," he said gloomily.
Hans shouted, "I told you to follow him closely. Didn't I tell you? This b * stard is a good player! "
Li Du turned around and said, "It was my mistake this time. I won't do it again."
He held the ball and dribbled from his hip. He wanted to play a trick. Stephen, who was standing beside him, suddenly moved and waved his hand to grab the ball.
Li Du could not react in time. He felt his hand become lighter. The ball was gone!
F * ck, what the f * ck. At that moment, he was depressed.
