Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom were the two other guests invited by Chris Bell. They did not bring gifts as they were themselves the best gifts.
The two wore sports clothes, which were specially made. The outside of the pants stuck together and could be removed when torn apart.
Bell had brought the two teams together, and Kobe and Odom had joined them separately. Both of them had come because of Bell, which showed Bell's wide connections.
The people of the slum basketball team played basketball very often; they often didn't go to work and didn't go to school and played instead.
Basketball was almost their only pleasure.
As a result, the stronger Kobe Bryant joined the treasure collectors team, and Odom joined the slum team.
News of the arrival of Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom quickly spread throughout Salem Harbor, with many people outside entering the abandoned factory community hoping to catch a glimpse of the superstar.
