At the Trail Blazers' home stadium, the Rose Garden Arena, Nguyen Er Niu was greeted by Trail Blazers general manager Kevin Pritchard. He warmly welcomed Ruan Erniu's arrival.

Before the official trial, he led Ruan Erniu to visit the court, locker rooms, physiotherapy rooms and other venues and equipment of the Rose Garden Arena.

Ruan Erniu is also the first time to see the team hardware of the regular business league.

Pritchard said, "Kraft, do you know anything about the Trail Blazers?"

Ruan Erniu said: "There has been a glorious history, the famous Tear City, and there have been star players like Drexler who can compete with Jordan!"

Pritchard nodded and said, "Of course, there have been brilliant and depraved. Even before I took over, it was a smoky Portland prison team, and the locker room was either a cancer that was just swiping through the data or drug dealers with marijuana everywhere. This is so different from our beautiful city. And your image is positive and sunny enough, and UCLA's heavenly pride has also been an example of reaching the top here!"

Ruan Erniu nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, I actually wanted to say it just now." My old senior, Bill Wharton, won a championship here and was one of the NBA's top 50 superstars. ”

Pritchard said: "Kraft, I want to ask you a question, are you willing to change your style of play and appear in the number 3 position?"

After thinking about it, Ruan Erniu said: "No problem, as long as the team needs it, I can change my position, but I am not sure whether I can be qualified for the No. 3 position, I haven't played this position yet!"

Pritchard smiled and said, "It's just a hypothesis, you don't have to worry too much, I'm optimistic about your future!

Ruan Erniu said: "I'm afraid this is not something I can decide alone. The championship is the embodiment of a team's comprehensive strength, and I am personally willing to do my best to fight for it, but whether I can win the championship in the end depends on God's arrangement!"

"You're not your age, and I think you're going to be the fastest player in this class to become a superstar," Pritchard said.

Ruan Erniu smiled: "I hope it is as you say!"

After that, Ruan Erniu officially devoted himself to the trial training of the pioneers. Overall, Ruan Erniu is quite satisfied with his performance.

After the Portland tour, Leon Rose decided that the next stop for Kraft Nguyen was Seattle.

Ruan Erniu asked puzzledly: "Leon, didn't you say that the SuperSonics have already selected Durant?

Leon Rose said: "Still going, you forget that the Portlanders actually have another choice, and that is to ignore it, or Kevin Durant!"

Ruan Erniu was puzzled: "Will it be? Durant has acted like that in training camp, will the Trail Blazers still want him?"

Leon Rose said: "It's still possible, and because Durant's acting skills are so flashy, how can you be sure that the Trail Blazers won't give everything to get the man they want?"

"Well, it seems that there is really such a possibility!" Ruan Erniu was speechless for a moment.

Leon Ross added: "Don't forget, the SuperSonics finally sent you an invitation to tryout. After all, they are not the first in line, anything is possible!"

Ruan Erniu laughed at himself: "It is also said that my spare tire, in the end, there is still a possibility of being on top!"

After saying that, he obediently stepped on the plane to Seattle.

It's a beautiful port city, and most TC people have a lot of images of it in the movie "Sleepless in Seattle," but the city's business atmosphere is just as strong.

Why use full-bodied, because the headquarters of many of the world's leading coffee companies, including Starbucks, are located here. Also, there is the giant of the Internet era - Microsoft.

If you think about it this way, doesn't coming here to play mean that you have the opportunity to be neighbors with Bill Gates?

The cranky Ruan Erniu took a car to the key stadium of the supersonic's home stadium.

He was greeted by the manager of the SuperSonics - Sam Presti. From his face, there is no indication of Kevin Durant's appearance at all.

Leon Rose once said: "The people who came out of the Spurs don't have a fuel-efficient lamp, and you have to raise the spirit of 12 points when dealing with them!"

Ruan Erniu was prepared in advance, so he more or less saw a little way. Presty was full of compliments, but there were no practical guarantees.

The words that went around and around made Ruan Erniu unable to figure out his true thoughts at all. However, as a quasi-professional player, Ruan Erniu still showed a professional attitude. I worked very hard in the trial, and I didn't see any slackness and dissatisfaction at all.

In this regard, both Sam Presti and SuperSonics head coach PJ Kalesimo (the hapless coach who was locked by Sprewell) are very sure of Nguyen Er Niu's strength.

Kalesimo covered his mouth and said to Presti: "If it hadn't been discussed a long time ago and recruited Kevin, I think the TC people are really a rare instant combat force." ”

Sam Presti also lowered his voice and said: "But I don't think he's tall, Charles Barkley is not so easy to appear." And Kevin is destined to be a strengthened version of McGrady. Of course, if we are cut off by the Trail Blazers, I will not hesitate to choose him, Oden's injury hazard is really unreassuring!"

The supersonic trial ended like this, and Ruan Erniu was still satisfied with his performance. Of course, whether he can be selected by the other party in the end or not, the initiative is still not in his hands.

After taking a small gift from the SuperSonics team and a few Starbucks café vouchers (all meters), he set out on his journey again.

According to Leon Rose, this should be his last stop, and the invitations from Memphis, Boston, and Milwaukee are ignored. Because in any case, Ruan Erniu's current market can't fall to the top 3.

He now has only one goal, a city that has left a strong mark on the history of the United States - Atlanta.

Because Ruan Erniu studied history at UCLA, and systematically experienced the learning mode from elementary school to high school in the United States. So I still have a good understanding of this city that influenced the trend of the Civil War.

Even in the United States, there are many urban legends in this place, because there were tens of thousands of troops from the north and the south who fought and died here.

Of course, it has to be mentioned that the fire in Margaret Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind" (i.e., "Gone with the Wind") was not ordered to be burned by the Northern Army general Sherman, but on the contrary, it was the Southern Army general Hood who ordered the fire. The main thing that Sherman burned down during the retreat was also military installations, and although it spread to some civilian buildings, it was really nothing compared to Hood's fire.

What's more, Atlanta has a population of only about 10,000 people. After months of fierce fighting, there were not many residents in the city in the first place. So, Sherman's rhetoric of a massacre is clearly also a bolt of madness on the part of a do-gooder.

Still, even so, the Southern soldiers still hated this Sherman. Years later, there were even Southern soldiers who refused to drive Sherman tanks, and news such as this appeared in the newspapers.
