Back in the locker room, Zhou Xuan immediately called Yi Jianlian to prove that he remembered the number, and the two hung up after chatting a few words.

Yi Jianlian was depressed, he played too poorly this time, but Anderson off the bench performed eye-catchingly, scoring 18 points and 5 rebounds.

Yu Jia was still unsatisfied after the game, and said: "Zhou Xuan has double-doubles in assists in three consecutive games, and now he ranks first in the assist list, which is amazing, and now the Warriors' offensive ball is running around him, Yao Ming didn't give people this core feeling in previous seasons, and he is just a rookie season." ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "In the first two games, some people said that he happened to play well, but this game is really strong, and Harris can't beat him." Of course, Zhou Xuan also has to thank his teammates, who have a very high overall hit rate today, more than fifty percent. ”

I don't know who the team's dark horse is, and the biggest dark horse of the player is none other than Zhou Xuan.

In the locker room, Zhou Xuan received a call from Nie Yuyan, but the two were forced to hang up after chatting for a few minutes, and the reporters came to interview him and asked him to talk about his feelings and the game.

A Chinese reporter asked Zhou Xuan to evaluate Yi Jianlian, and Zhou Xuan wanted to praise Yi Jianlian twice, but his performance was so bad that he couldn't find any bright spots, so he could only say directly: "I think he can't let go on the court, and he needs to play more resolutely." New Jersey, which is very close to New York, has a better environment than Milwaukee. However, in the new team, Yi Jianlian needs to readapt to his teammates, coaches, and integrate into the system. It's not that easy to start all over again. ”

The reporter asked, "What do you think he should do?" ”

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "I have just arrived at the Warriors, if I want to give advice, it is to communicate more with my teammates and communicate more." I hope to be good friends with my teammates, not just colleagues, Yi Jianlian's personality is different from mine, and what happens in the future depends on his own choice. ”

Some reporters also interviewed Yi Jianlian and asked him to evaluate Zhou Xuan, but Yi Jianlian was not so happy to speak. The first thing he thinks about is how to say it so that he doesn't offend people, and how to say it so that he doesn't look a little arrogant. And he is a star in the CBA, and when he came to the NBA, he didn't want to admit that he was inferior to Zhou Xuan, and after thinking about it, he found that it was not good to say anything, and he just said a few ambiguous words vaguely, the same as not saying it.

Yi Jianlian was completely unaware of the weakness of his character, how could a person who dared to speak dare to speak have ambition and enterprising desire?

At the beginning, Fagan asked him to refuse to go to the Bucks to report, which was a manifestation of Americans' interests-oriented and arrogant character, and Yi Jianlian did not like Milwaukee at all, but finally compromised to report to the Bucks, which is the golden mean of the Chinese.

These principles are sometimes good, but in the highly competitive NBA, for a professional player, this stability should be thrown directly into the trash.

Next, the Warriors have to fly to Memphis to play away, the NBA schedule is very tight, four games a week is common, and back-to-back, in addition, most of the games have to be flown in, which is a test of people's mental and physical strength. Zhou Xuan had never tried this kind of life, and he was already starting to feel tired.

When he arrived at the airport, Zhou Xuan wanted to help Jackson carry the bag as usual, and Jackson had already thrown the bag to Anthony? Randolph said with a smile: "You don't need to help me do these things in the future, leave it to the players who don't play, you are now an important member of the players." ”

"Okay then."

Old Nelson walked over from the side and said, "Zhou, you have played well in these three games, I can see that you have done your best at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, but you must also learn to distribute your physical strength reasonably." If you are overdrawn all the time, you will increase the likelihood of injury. The next opponent is the Grizzlies, and the strength is not strong, so you can adjust your playing style and reduce your running without the ball. ”

"Isn't running less less of a chance to score? The opposing players will also be relaxed. Zhou Xuan didn't expect the coach to make such a request.

The coaching staff has regarded Zhou Xuan as a key object of protection.

The Warriors lineup has changed a lot from last season, gone Michael? Petrus, Matt? Barnes, Byron? Davis was a three-member warrior who injured Ellis, and the only important reinforcements were Margety, Turiaf, and Zhou Xuan. The start of the game was better than last season, and Zhou Xuan played a key role. His selflessness has made a difference in the style of the whole team. Last season's starters, with the exception of Biedrins, were crazy shots, but now the players are happy to share the ball and are more united.

Nelson Sr. had a serious expression and said lightly: "I must say that your physical strength is very good, usually the first week of rookie feeling uncomfortable, you have played well for three games in a row, and you have also worked the defensive end, which has exceeded my expectations." But you have to understand that you are the least person who can be injured, and if you are out of action, you have to Stephen [Jackson] to organize, and he can't pass the ball as well as you. I'm not asking you to have reservations in the race, but to cut down on unnecessary runs. In the first three games, you didn't be idle after passing the ball out, running a lot without the ball, cutting back and forth, and really receiving passes from teammates to score very few times, which consumed physical strength in vain. I know you want to perform, but there are eighty-two games in the regular season and that's just the beginning. ”

Zhou Xuan listened very carefully, nodded and said, "I understand, Xie Lu thanks you for your guidance." ”

There are a lot of things to learn for newcomers, and veteran players such as Jackson, Harrington, and Margeti like to use dry pulling to solve problems in order to save energy. Especially when Jackson is working the defensive end, it is necessary to pay more attention to the distribution of physical strength, which is difficult for rookies to understand if no one says these experiences. There are many examples of dominance that cannot be closer because of physical problems, such as Yao Ming and Ginobili.

After getting on the plane, Zhou Xuan fell asleep, he was indeed too tired, and when he got off the plane and arrived at the hotel, he slept again. There were no games the next day, and the team had a day off to recharge.

Many successful people have sighed and envy the lives of ordinary people. Although ordinary people don't have much money, they live comfortably, while successful people spend their days busy. The life of an NBA player is even more boring, flying around by plane, practicing, playing, and so on.

In the afternoon, Margety and Jackson invited Zhou Xuan to go out together, and Zhou Xuan agreed without saying a word, if he didn't go, it was likely that there would be an estrangement. Did he also listen to Mitchell? Butler's suggestion is that how to have a good relationship with blacks should be opened on the court and off the court.

Memphis is the largest city in the U.S. state of Tennessee, located on the banks of the Mississippi River, at the mouth of the Wolf River. There's no shortage of food, beauty, wine and people. Visitors can take a boat ride on the Mississippi River, visit the best zoo in the country, visit Elvis Presley's former home, barbecue and more, but Jackson doesn't take Zhou Xuan to that kind of place, they take a car to Beale Street, which is lined with clubs, bars, and restaurants.

Entering a club on Beale Street and seeing the circular stage and steel pipes, Zhou Xuan immediately thought of what kind of place this was, a striptease nightclub! He only thought about giving Jackson face, but forgot that this guy likes clubbing. In 2006, Jackson almost went to prison in a nightclub because of the conflict, and he still hasn't changed his old habits.

Players are under a lot of pressure, and there are two best ways for men to vent their anger, one is to drink, and the other is to find women, but NBA stars are not easy to touch. Drinking alcohol will affect the state, go to some bars, nightclubs to relax, once the media finds out, it will be said that it is a problem player who does not work hard, and the image is damaged.

It's still early, and no one is performing. Jackson led them to an open box, and a fat black man got up from the red sofa, with an inscrutable smile on his face, hugged Jackson and said, "Stephen, you finally came to me, I haven't seen you for a few months, you have a good record lately." ”

Jackson smiled and introduced, "This is my cousin Ernie." Ernie you know these two, Corey? Margety, and our little brother Zhou Xuan. His English name also happens to be Stephen. ”

"It's a pleasure to meet you. Especially you, Stephen Chow, I watched the game and you're amazing. Ernie laughed, waving his hand. Let's sit inside. ”

Zhou Xuan thought about it and decided to sit down, and it was very shameless to leave immediately as soon as he introduced him. The waiter brought drinks and wine, and Jackson and Margety had a drink and chatted.

Zhou Xuan had close contact with the life of black people for the first time, and his living environment was completely different, they said a lot of black words, and Zhou Xuan silently remembered it in his heart. If the tone of speech is similar, it can win the favor of the other party and help him make friends with black players in the future. No matter what industry you want, if you want to do it smoothly and be comfortable, interpersonal relationships are inevitable.

Earl is a nightclub, pure underworld, where he has a group of younger brothers, and Jackson also invests in the store, which is a minority shareholder.

If he hadn't joined the NBA, Jackson would have been a gangster by now. His life was very rough, his father abandoned him and his mother when he was born, and he has not been in touch for many years, and it is a question whether he is still alive or not. His mother took on the responsibility of taking care of the three siblings.

Jackson always valued family affection. When Hurricane Katrina struck his relatives' city in 2005, he immediately paid $50,000 to hire two helicopters to take nearly 30 of his relatives to his home. So, Jackson is also Ernie's savior.

After Jackson entered the NBA, he once carried nine horses by his side, all of whom were small in his hair. These nine guys eat him, wear him, and live by him. Such a righteous person is rare in the whole world, and his righteous personality has made Jackson make a lot of friends in the NBA.

Margeti is much better off in comparison, but he admires some of Jackson's actions.

Relying on his super learning ability, Zhou Xuan also began to interject an hour later, his tone tried to imitate black people as much as possible, making the atmosphere more harmonious, and he also drank a glass of beer.

In the evening, Earl went out to do things, and the three of them stayed in the private room and waited to watch the show.

Jackson laughed and said, "Zhou, you're such a wonderful person. I've been in contact with Chinese people, and they seem to be a little wary of blacks and don't want to deal with us. But you're different, you're so much more interesting than they are, and I like you. ”

Margety chimed in: "Me too. Actually, when I first came to the team to report, I didn't expect anything about the new season, you did a good job, I was already tormented enough by guard problems in the Clippers, I didn't expect to be so comfortable here. ”

"I like you very much too, without you I wouldn't be so beautiful, and I would be famous all of a sudden. Ha Lu Ha. Zhou Xuan also praised the two eldest brothers.

"I heard that you and Sister Olsen are very close, they won't care about you, right? If I fall in love with any girl tonight, I will treat you, don't worry, reporters can't come in here, and the secrecy work is very good. Jackson smirked.

Zhou Xuan was a little dizzy, and hurriedly made an excuse: "Xie Lu Xie, but in fact, I have a girlfriend, I am Chinese, we have known each other in China, I can only skip this link for her." ”

"It turns out that there was your girlfriend among the people who waved at you in the front row of the opening game, I paid attention, that long-haired one, right? She's beautiful. Margeti suddenly realized.

"Yes." Zhou Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He doesn't want to prostitute himself, not because he doesn't dare, but because he's afraid of getting sick, there are too many "sexually ill men" in the NBA. Hearing Margeti praise Nie Yuyan's beauty, he still felt a little proud, although he said that his girlfriend was fake......
