Chapter 26: Partners (II)
"No, go James, I'm going to work hard for Maserati. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"And Hollywood stars!"
As if hearing a funny joke, White exaggerated his hands and added such a sentence as if it were sarcasm.
"Yes."
Shi Lei nodded seriously, although he couldn't stand the ****** of European and American women at all, and the strong smell of perfume on his body.
"It's a great idea, and while I don't think you can do it, as a friend, I've decided to stay with you."
"Are you sure?" Shi Lei had already given up persuasion, but unexpectedly heard White agree to stay.
"Yes, brother, you heard me right, I decided to accompany you, and you may consider giving me a Maserati in the future."
"But there are no Hollywood stars."
This sentence made the two of them laugh at the same time.
Fate is so wonderful, from this time on, two people with different destinies, each other's fates are intertwined, and in this year, they have become the one who accompanies each other the most.
I have to say that God seems to favor the three words James, White may not shoot accurately, dribble unsteadily, and break through not sharp enough, but his physical fitness is exceptionally good. The one-on-one bullfight between the two seems to have become his slam dunk exhibition game, and he always seizes every opportunity to "fly" himself and make the basket let out bursts of wailing.
"Hey, man, see, you can't stop me."
When White got off the basket again, he tilted his head and said to Shi Lei with an empty expression.
Shi Lei was naturally not to be outdone: "Why don't you break through me, are you afraid?" ”
"But you can't stop my dunk, that's enough."
"Okay, I'll put one on your head."
"You always say that, but your dunk doesn't have any beauty at all, so why not try to add something else?"
Time passed little by little, the sound of basketball slapping and talking with two people made the Spurs training hall under the cover of night seem more and more quiet.
"Stop, brother, I think we should go."
After another one-on-one practice, White held the basketball in his arms and said to Shi Lei.
"Oh, okay."
Wiping the sweat that kept dripping from his forehead, Shi Lei nodded in approval of White's proposal. He was tired, tired, but White seemed to be very relaxed. He actually asked Shi Lei: "Can you have a drink with me now?" ”
"Oh my God, aren't you tired?"
"No, it's nothing, and if I want to, there is something else I can do. I used to spend all day practicing a certain dunk move, yes, all day. ”
White took off his wet clothes, with an indifferent expression, and went to Shi Lei to say.
"Honestly James, I envy your physical condition very much, it is truly a masterpiece of God."
"Yes, everybody says that. Do you know? I almost became the 'champion'. ”
"Champion?"
Shi Lei suspected that he had misheard the words or misunderstood what White was trying to say.
"Yes, at that time, countless teams invited me to go to a tryout and said they wanted me to go there. But I refused. ”
As if talking about a trivial matter, White behaved very freely, and didn't seem to mind the huge identity gap from the "champion" to the final round show.
"And then?"
Shi Lei asked curiously, he thought that White was in this situation because of injury or other reasons, but what he got was an answer that he couldn't understand.
"I chose to go to college."
The tone in which White said this was still a daily wave.
"University?"
Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't understand it at all. In his impression, people are "parallel goods" Kwame. The most Brown said was that "he should probably go to college for a few years" and "it was a bad decision for him to come to the NBA too early."
"Yes, I can't understand it either, so it's all God's decision."
In the hazy mist, White's words came to Shi Lei's ears with a bit of etherealism.
God's decision, that's what White said about his fate.
Perhaps in the dark, there is really a bit of providence that makes White always unable to get what he wants at some crucial junctures in his life.
In high school, White used his almost perverted physical fitness and gorgeous style of play to become a high-profile basketball star in the United States. Just when everyone thought he would be in the 2001 NBA Draft, he chose to attend the University of Florida because of the fact that year. Brown entered the draft.
In college, he helped the Florida Gators run a 22-9 record in the 2001-2002 season, and then transferred to the University of Cincinnati, one of the strongest leagues in the NCAA, where he averaged 16.3 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.blocks per game in his senior year. However, this year's NCAA championship was the University of Florida Gators!
In the NCAA Slam Dunk Contest, the most watched slam dunk contest that has just ended, White, who was unbeatable in the preliminaries, finally won the runner-up, because people think that White's dunk lacks new tricks!
Well, that's James. White's story, a story of a low followed by a high. And this is just the beginning, in Shi Lei's memory, he almost knows the trajectory and turning point of White's entire life before he came to the CBA.
This year's NBA draft is generally considered to be the worst in the past decade. When the media interviewed the managers of those teams why they didn't choose White, each of them cited a number of reasons, and most of them were not repeated. So in the media report, there was such a sentence - "There are 10,000 rules in the NBA that do not choose James. White's reason"!
"How about going to my house?"
When White again proposed to go to some places to "have a drink", Shi Lei said this. He knew what White meant, but he didn't want to sleep with some woman with some purpose, at least not yet.
"Okay, go to your house."
Putting the backpack on his back, White didn't seem to object to Shi Lei's proposal.
For the memory of this night, many years later, Shi Lei only remembered this sentence: "You know what, brother, you always sit there quietly, and that makes you look lonely, so I always try to tell you something, I think that will help you forget that damn thing." ”
On this night, after the wine was hot, White said to Shi Lei with his tongue wide open.
