At the end of August, many NBA players received an invitation from Europe, inviting them to Edinburgh, Scotland, before September 10, to participate in Tiger's birthday party in a castle in Scotland. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett and Vince Carter, the three of them were the first to arrive, although the three of them were not on the same team as Tiger, they belonged to that kind of real like-minded friends, especially Duncan, who had a deep relationship with Tiger. Tiger had already left Scotland with his family, but when deciding on the location of the party, Tiger and Li Shan immediately thought of Scotland, a place that left a deep memory on them, and Jessica had no problem with it, so everyone turned back to Scotland and began some preparations in advance.

Tiger rented a castle in Scotland as the venue for this party, where Tiger met the Duncan three, four friends after the All-Star Game, they got together for the first time, and there were many topics to talk about, but it was still inseparable from basketball and the playoffs, here Garnett was the most depressed, the Minnesota Timberwolves did not make the playoffs last season, which was actually a big blow to Garnett, Garnett's ambition and strength are not lacking, but he was absent from the stage like the playoffs, looking at the friends who talked eloquently, Garnett's heart is envious, especially Tiger, who has just lifted the championship trophy, which is the highest honor that many players have been fighting for.

"Kevin, loyalty is a good thing, but a player's athletic career is really limited, and sometimes it's the wisest thing to do when you leave." Tiger saw Garnett's depression and spoke up.

"My contract expires next year, the team has started to talk to me about renewing it, I'm conflicted right now, everything here is actually really good, the team gave me a good contract, the fans have always supported us, and the team promised me that they would try to find a good helper for me, if I could, I didn't want to leave, I don't know how to deal with the fans here." In fact, this is not the first time Tiger has persuaded Garnett, Garnett's heart has also loosened in Tiger's many persuasions, but every player has his own reasons for insisting.

"Man, try to explain this word a lot, and the effort within your ability is to do your best. But do you think Minnesota's cold climate can attract good players? And your boss, he doesn't want to pay the luxury tax, it's already blocked, the team's development space, this year's playoffs, I'm sure you've also seen it, if a team wants to win the championship, it's not enough to rely on just a few people, and the bench players are also very important. I don't want to see you, to be the next Charles Barkley, to look at Karl Malone and Stockton, who are still holding on to just a championship ring. Kevin, if you really don't care about that, then I don't have anything to say. "Tiger's favorite basketball star in his last life is Kevin Garnett, who is definitely the number one star in his heart, even if he likes Duncan and Kobe Bryant very much, but his love for Garnett is definitely the first, there is no reason, it is simply love.

"I said Tiger, why did I leave San Antonio last summer, you persuaded me to stay, and now Kevin has been leaving? Isn't that a bit unfair? Duncan said with wide eyes and a cute look.

"Tim, you're in a different situation, you already have a championship ring, and the San Antonio Spurs are very strong, especially Coach Popovich is very capable, you know, the head coach is the foundation of a team's success. But what does the Minnesota Timberwolves have now? They have nothing but one superstar, Kevin Garnett, and isn't it the championship that our players are working for? Tiger gave Duncan a roll of his eyes and said as a matter of course.

"Man, why didn't you persuade me to leave Toronto? You know, I'm not having a good time right now, and I'm still in remote and cold Canada. Carter also came to say funny.

"Vince, actually, I'd love to persuade you to leave if possible, but you've signed a contract extension with the team, and it's all getting harder, and I used to think in the Western Conference Finals, if we meet the Los Angeles Lakers this year, it's you and not Kobe, what will the result be? Thinking about it at the end, I'm glad you're in faraway Toronto, man, you're very strong, and this year was supposed to be the time for results, if, I mean, Tracy didn't leave, our opponent in the finals, it would have been you, just Vince, I think you must have offended God, so he teased you. Tiger said these words sincerely, Vince Carter's experience has always made Tiger feel regretful, today he was a little excited, reckless, the most true thoughts in his heart, bluntly said.

"Hey! Man, according to what you say, you must have a good relationship with God, good people are jealous, you have won the championship now, and you have gained love, plus the whole Los Angeles Clippers team is yours, if you think about it, you guy is really lucky to make people want to beat you. Garnett slashed his fist, leaking out a mouthful of white teeth, and also changed the subject, they both knew that Maddie was a hurdle in Carter's heart.

"So man, you can come to Los Angeles and follow me, as someone who has been kissed by God, follow me, and you're going to be lucky. Ha ha! Tiger laughed, joking with Garnett.

"Let's take a look! If the team hasn't changed this season, I may not really renew my contract with the team, as you said, if I can't win a championship before I retire, I won't be reconciled. However, forget about the Los Angeles Clippers, you have Jason here, and there is no shortage of people on the inside. Garnett really started thinking about Tiger's words this time, can he really get the championship he dreams of with the Minnesota Timberwolves?

"To give you a suggestion, the East will be easier to mix, the West has the Texas top three, Los Angeles is in the way, it is not easy to make a difference, the young guards selected by the San Antonio Spurs this year will make their team rebuild again soon, that's what I said, a good coach is the key to a team, Coach Popovich not only has a strong coaching ability, but also has a very good eye for selecting people." Tiger said with some arrogance that their team has finally grown into a strong force. (To be continued.) )
