Zhou Zheng had a very helpless feeling, he had already seen that kind of involuntary taste at Madison Garden last year... Fate is really completely unpredictable.

Zhou Zheng became the most popular person at Kobe's dinner table, and Kobe's daughter, Natalia, is only a little over 2 years old, but she can already understand all the conversations and occasionally participate in them.

"I want him to feed me. ”

The little princess gave her orders, which made Vanessa and Kobe Bryant very embarrassed, after all, Tiger was a guest.

However, Zhou Zheng put down the knife and fork with a smile, took Natalia from the nanny, and smiled at Kobe Bryant: "Handsome guys can always be easily favored by women. ”

"No... She's just a momentary freshness. To be honest, Kobe Bryant was a little jealous: "Natalia, tell Daddy who you love the most." ”

Kobe Bryant was eager to save face, but Natalia's small hand was directed at Vanessa. This made Vanessa very happy, and she hurriedly came over and kissed Natalia: "Baby, you are awesome. ”

"Okay. Kobe Bryant shook his head helplessly, and then said, "Who does my mother love the most?"

"Him!" Natalia pointed her hand firmly at Zhou Zheng.

"Hahahaha!" Zhou Zheng laughed heartily. And Kobe Bryant beat his chest.

Family dinners are always warm, and Zhou Zheng enjoys the family atmosphere. Chinese people love family in their bones.

"If you join the Lakers, Natalia will be happy. Kobe Bryant said when he said goodbye to Zhou Zheng: "It can be seen that she really likes you very much." ”

"Go ahead and do it. Zhou Zheng finally gave Kobe Bryant a promise: "Rather than going to another team and starting an uncertain life, it may be more secure for me to stay in Los Angeles." Though... This means that our relationship has to go from friends to teammates, and we may even have an argument over a rebound or a shot one day, and then we don't talk for days on end. But, who knows? I don't want to waste my time predicting the future. ”

"I can assure you that even if I quarrel with you, I will never go more than three days without talking to you. Kobe Bryant swore by it.

"Hahahaha. ”

Zhou Zheng left laughing, and the communication with Kobe Bryant has been very pleasant so far, and even became more harmonious with tonight's family dinner.

Well, it's not bad to be able to go to the Lakers.

Zhou Zheng muttered in his heart.

He simply let go of all predictions about the future, and accepted whatever happened on the night of June 25.

Zhou Zheng returned home and slept a good night's sleep, the happiest sleep he had in a while.

Zhou Zheng had a good night's sleep, but McDonleavy didn't. He briefed Raheem Sterling on the recent draft and the deal plan for the recent period. At the same time, he was accompanied by Andy Arthur and Elgin Baylor.

In the absence of Raheem Sterling, McDonleavy had his assessment of Zhou: "I don't think he's a good fit for our team, his style of play makes it tough and he hasn't proven his playmaking ability in positional attack so far. But Elgin is trying to trade upwards, which I think is very, very stupid,"

McDonleavy habitually slapped Elgin Baylor with a rake.

Before Elgin Baylor could explain, Sterling had already said indifferently: "This year's NCAA Finals, I was in the VIP box at Staples Arena, and I watched the whole game with my daughter. I think he's a good player, with a very entertaining style and a lot of hard work. If you can get him, why not give it a try?"

Sterling spread his hands and continued: "He's the pride of California basketball, and he's led the little-known Stanford to pull off miracles. Don't you see that he's been featured in the major California media lately even more than Bryant?"

Sterling's words stunned all three executives, and Elgin Baylor could clearly feel the wind shifting.

McDonleavy was still there arguing: "But... We already have Sean Livingston. ”

"I'm not like him, he's thin and doesn't have momentum, he can't play a few minutes a game, his jersey sales are a mess, and he has to get more than four million dollars a year from me. "Sterling's exit was full of racism.

When McDonleavy heard this, he suddenly had some ideas in his heart, and he hurriedly said, "But... Tiger is Chinese, a yellow race. ”

Syllable!

Sterling slapped the table: "What happened to the yellow race? What happened to the Chinese?"

Sterling's fury immediately stunned the three people below.

"Did the Chinese save the Jews during World War II? The yellow race in East Asia is the hardest working race in the world, second only to the Jews. They're not as lazy as those black people, and they're not as lazy as those Mexicans. Sterling said angrily: "Shaun Livingston can be packaged and traded, why should I keep a player who can't sell jerseys and tickets?"

"I passed the plan to trade upwards and had to bring Tiger back to the Clippers. Raheem Sterling decided: "The Clippers are going to become a second Stanford!"

Coming out of Sterling's office, McDonleavy was sweating profusely, and Elgin Baylor was slightly relaxed, something neither of them expected...... Sterling turned out to be so eye-to-eye to Tiger that he said he had to bring Tiger back to the Clippers.

"Let's look at how to trade upwards. Andy Loser called the two to his office, and they began brainstorming out the deal one by one.

Ultimately, they decided that trading with the fifth-overall Trail Blazers was the best thing to do... Using Shaun Livingston plus this year's 12th pick to trade them for the 5th pick, I believe the Portlanders will never refuse.

After they decided on this plan, they began to feel confident.
