(One hundred and twenty-nine) conspiracy
Yuanfei was heartbroken by Maddie's matter, and the next day he took the initiative to interview Yao Ming and Billups. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yao, Chauncey, you two are the core stars of the Rockets, and now there are some problems with Tracy, I hope you can communicate with me seriously. Our aim is to help Tracy get back into form and help the team win more. Yuan Fei looked directly at Billups after speaking, because he believed that Yao Ming would understand and support him.
Billups is quite sophisticated, and he made it clear, "Tracy is a good friend of mine, but from a team point of view, we're all part of the team. I share the same expectations with the management that he will treat himself right, so I will work with the team. ”
Yao Ming also seconded the motion.
'What have the players been saying about him lately?' Yuanfei asked.
"Mainly there were some doubts about his training, and some players suspected that Tracy was not training properly and causing his physical function to decline. Not just this period of rest for recuperation, but also the previous suspension period. Billups replied truthfully.
"Do you think this kind of questioning will affect the overall atmosphere of the team and the morale of the players?"
Both hesitated and looked at each other. Yao Ming gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I think there is some impact. ”
"Do you have any other thoughts on Tracy's personal issues, his impact on the team, his relationship with the players?" Yuanfei continued to ask.
'Hopefully he'll train hard and play at the level he did last season. Without. Yao Ming thought the conversation was over and breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's one more thing I'd like to mention." Billups began: "Tracy isn't very good at being nice to his teammates. He's a very kind person, nice to others, but he doesn't express it. For example, he and his teammates won't pay for their meals...... Because he was shy to pay for it. ”
"There is still such a thing...... Yuan Fei was speechless for a while. He paid for Maddie's dinner, and he had money anyway, so he never cared. Yao Ming also nodded, indicating that he also knew this.
"Of course, I don't care about people with higher incomes like Yao and Hakim, but there are still people in the team who don't make much money, such as Tony and Monk. The cost of getting together for a meal in a high-end hotel is not a small number, and the highest earner in the team does not pay, which is sometimes a little awkward. At one point, Hakim was a little angry and half-jokingly forced Tracy to pay, and Tracy threw down the money and left, seemingly unpleasant. Billups continued: "Tracy and everyone have never had a big conflict, it's all about the little things in the day. ”
(It's true that Maddie is stingy.) At one point, the entire Rockets team gave a portion of the prize money to the arena staff, but Maddie refused to pay it. The person who forced him to pay in history was Mutombo)
"Do you think Tracy will be able to take on the responsibility of leadership in the future?"
"What the future holds, who knows?" Yao Ming smiled bitterly.
"Speaking of personal relationships, Tracy and I are better. But I felt that Yao and I were better suited to take on the responsibilities of leaders. Billups said bluntly.
"Do you think Tracy should pay for his mistakes?" The question of Yuanfei is becoming more and more acute. This conversation was completely beyond his previous imagination, and it had gone uncontrollably to the heated side.
The two thought for a long time, and Yao Ming finally spoke: "I don't want to answer this question. ”
"I just want to say that Tracy has contributed a lot to the team. Even though he didn't do it right this time, he deserved some forgiveness. Billups expressed a different opinion this time.
"Okay, thank you for being straightforward. I will have a serious consultation with the management and have a good talk with Tracy" Yuan Fei sent the two away, closed the door and sighed.
"Tracy, you've disappointed me!"
***
A phone call interrupted Yuanfei's thoughts, and he picked it up, an unfamiliar voice.
"Hello, I'm Vane. Hall. You dialed my phone yesterday when I was at work and couldn't answer it. ”
Yuan Fei was overjoyed, "Mr. Hall, it's really good that you can call back." I'm Jason of the Houston Rockets staff. Wang, I'd like to ask you some questions about our player, McGrady. ”
"Of course you can, but I will choose to keep the contents of the customer's secrets secret."
"Okay, please be selective." Yuanfei asked, "Has McGrady maintained a regular training schedule recently?" ”
"I can't tell you about my client's training schedule." "But I can tell you that yesterday when I was training boxer Jack, he asked me the same question. After all, Maddie is my biggest celebrity client, and the national sports community knows that. My answer to him was, 'You can see how much time I've spent training you, and you'll know how much time Maddie hasn't trained.' ”
"That's the case...... Yuan Fei was disappointed, although he already knew this answer, but it was still sad when he confirmed it. So are you aware of McGrady's recent living arrangements? ”
"You're asking the right person, this matter doesn't involve customer secrets, and I know some." Hall finally opened up the conversation, "I've been taking over his training since he was in high school, and we're on good personal terms. The two houses weren't too far apart by 10 miles, and I ran every morning on a route that passed his house. Every day I hope that when I pass by his house, Maddie will stop me and say that I can start training, but I hope that one time and another fails. ”
"You can see that you care about him too."
"After all, he's the superstar I brought up, a trainer, how many superstars can I have in my lifetime?" Hall also sighed, "Recently, I heard his wife Cleenda say that he was very close to a man named Mark, and the two often hung out in nightclubs. I've heard that Cleenda hasn't been in good health lately and doesn't have much energy to take care of him. And his back and waist were not fully recovered, so he vented his energy into the nightclub. ”
Yuanfei finally figured out what happened, and he was a little angry. There is a big difference in the views of Chinese and American cultures on nightclubs, and Maddie is even more angry when he leaves his sick wife. "I really didn't expect t_mac to be such a person!"
"Mr. Jason, if you can, I'd like you to investigate this man named Mark. I always felt that Maddie was not such a person, I have known him for so many years, he is a good person. Hall still defended Maddie.
"Okay, I promise you. Thank you so much for telling me this. Yuanfei hung up the phone, and even broke the pen in his hand in his anger. However, he was not carried away yet, and he still had to do what he promised Hall. He called Dawson and used his connections to contact personnel outside Team Rocket to conduct an undercover investigation.
The Rockets once again played the style of a strong team during this time, they beat the Magic twice, slashed the Knicks, and killed the Hornets. Neither the immature Howard, nor Thomas or PJ. Brown could stop Yao Ming's outburst, and Da Yao scored 20+ in four consecutive games, including 33+11 against the Magic, so that Howard could not find the north. It wasn't until the end of the month that they faced the Kings and the Heat in a row, and finally suffered two consecutive defeats. In the first Yao shark battle in 05, O'Neill, who was getting old, only got 15+5 and was crushed by Yao Ming. But Heat star Wade scored 30+8+6 and completely exploded the Rockets' outside line.
On the last day of January, relying on Billups' 20+7+10 quasi-triple-double play, the Rockets overturned the Celtics away. As a result, they still sit in sixth place in the West with 29 wins and 16 losses, maintaining a certain advantage over the Timberwolves, Lakers and Grizzlies behind them. The Grizzlies got off to a poor start but had a strong January record, going 12-3 and overtaking the Timberwolves and Lakers to move into seventh place in the West.
On this day, Dawson's investigation report finally came out, and the results were completely beyond Yuanfei's expectations. Hall's guess turned out to be correct! The investigation revealed that Mark met Maddie through his employer, and upon further investigation, it was discovered that Mark's employer was a scout working for the Lakers!
Jason. The nightmarish name of Bass resurfaced in Yuanfei's mind. It had to be him! Only he and Yuanfei know Maddie's laziness, weakness and depravity in the future, and only he has such a demonic wrist to make an MVP superstar degenerate into a mediocrity in an instant.
Admittedly, Maddie's own laziness is the main reason. But Yuanfei's continuous efforts to help Maddie and constantly create an atmosphere of a big family in Hough for Maddie have changed Maddie a lot. It is precisely because of Maddie's efforts beyond his previous life that he became the MVP and achieved more records and honors than in his previous life. But now, the cursed fate seems to have returned to him. Can he still be saved under the influence of the demon Buzz?
Yuanfei is caught in a painful choice. (To be continued.) )
