At the end of the award ceremony, many people came up to say hello to Sun Hao.

In the crowd, Sun Hao found an unexpected figure.

Doug Christie.

It was not surprising that Sun Hao would know him.

Although the Kings have been a little bit of a study with the prince in the past few years, the two have played a lot against each other in the game.

In the future, when people think of the best defensive player, the first thing that comes to mind is Bruce Bowen, Tony Allen, and Battier, but Christie must be the underrated one and probably the one who will always be underrated.

Since 2000, Christie has been named to the All-Defensive Team for four consecutive years, averaging nearly 2 steals per game in his career! It is also the steal king of the 2001~2002 season!

Unlike Bowen's penchant for blackfoot and small moves, Christie is a standard technical flow defense.

And one of the other things that is different from Bowen is that he is really fighting alone.

Behind Bowen is Duncan, behind Tony Allen is the Black and White Bears, and behind Battier is Yao Ming.

But behind Christie, there are Divac and Webb, two players who defend the league average or even below.

So the Kings' Princeton was able to play a result, which has a lot to do with Christie's character who doesn't seem to be dazzling.

Because even if your offense is so fancy that people want to give you a monkey, if your defense is stabbed by 10,000 people, it will be useless in the end.

The Warriors before them are a stark example.

So as an opponent, Sun Hao is very familiar with Christie, and he also appreciates it.

After saying hello, Sun Hao curiously asked him why he was here tonight.

You must know that Christie suffered a small injury before, and he has just returned from injury not long ago.

Christie didn't speak, just turned her head to look at the ...... beside her. Wife.

The look that can't hide the dodge, it's obvious that he's a guy who is afraid of guilt.

Sun Hao also reacted and greeted his wife with a smile.

NBA players are basically five big and three thick, and even the guards are all muscular men after taking off their clothes.

But in fact, there are many "inward-looking" people in the NBA.

There are two kinds of fear of guilt, one is to be good to his wife, like James is a representative of this;

The other is that the wife is really a ruthless person, and the representative figure is Kidd, who was once replaced by depression because of his wife's domestic violence.

Christie is also the latter.

Sun Hao was still on the Mavericks at the beginning, and he heard the "story king" Easley talk about Christie's gossip.

Christie's wife's name is Jackie.

It was before the two got married, and Christie wanted to go to a bachelorette party.

In the United States, the so-called bachelor party is to enjoy the last carnival before getting married, and do some "manual work" when you meet the eyes.

Christie just told Jackie that she wanted to "see", but Jackie walked out of the house without saying a word, and the fire burned the car Christie was about to drive!

Christie was stupefied on the spot.

In addition, he helped Christie beat up the "Fox" Fox who was playing for the Lakers at the time, refused to let the female dentist treat Christie, and so on.

"If only Doug could play with you, you'd be a good match."

Jackie and Sun Hao said suddenly after greeting each other.

It's no surprise that she would say that.

On the one hand, Sun Hao showed his "universal plug" attribute to the fullest tonight.

On the other hand, it is also related to the current situation of the Kings.

Adelman's position has been very shaky this season due to his lack of results, including Divac's departure from old age and Miller's defense.

This Kings team, after maintaining a cycle for four years, is already in a state of disintegration.

In contrast, the Lakers are thriving, and if he can join the Lakers, his career prospects will be completely different for Christie.

Christie, after listening to Jackie's words, was stunned for a moment, but after glancing at his wife, she immediately smiled and nodded.

Sun Hao wanted to laugh when he saw it, but he still held back.

Luckily, Scarlett isn't this one.

Otherwise, he'll have a headache.

……

At the end of the All-Star break, each team has four days off.

Sun Hao, after some preparations on this day, he invited O'Neill to his home as a guest.

At the time of the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, he agreed to O'Neal on two conditions.

One is to have O'Neal make a cameo appearance in all the sequels to "Saw Horror", which he has already done.

The only one left is for O'Neill to eat a food that he will never forget.

This is also the reason why Sun Hao invited O'Neill to be a guest at home today!

O'Neill pouted as he entered, his eyes sweeping back and forth in the living room.

This is the performance of a standard foodie.

Sun Hao smiled and brought him to the dining table, where there were two bowls with lids.

O'Neill couldn't wait to uncover it, but was stopped by Sun Hao.

"You've got to pick one, and they're two completely different flavors."

O'Neill froze for a moment, then shook his head.

"I can't even see what they are, and whichever one I choose is not what I want to choose."

Sun Hao was happy after listening to it.

This O'Neill is really very influenced by the Zen master.

"Then ...... Follow your heart's choice! ”

Sun Hao said as he opened the lids on the two bowls.

What appeared in front of O'Neill's eyes was what Sun Hao said, two completely different things.

No, to be precise, it should be two practices of one thing.

The bowl on the left is a little black, a little white and a little green, with a little cyan.

The bowl on the right is snow-white, with some sugar sprinkled on the surface.

"What is this?"

O'Neill, apparently, hadn't seen anything in front of him.

He had really never seen anything like it, and the gel in front of him looked a little like cheese, but it was completely different.

"Tofu brain, in English, is called unsolidified tofu."

Sun Hao said a noun.

Don't think that the translation of tofu brain is what tofu brain, that's an idea that only geniuses have.

As for why it is called uncured tofu.

This actually involves a problem of tofu making process.

Generally speaking, tofu changes from beans to tofu, and it will go through several intermediate links, starting with soy milk, then tofu brain, then bean curd, and finally tofu.

Among them, soy milk to tofu brain needs to add some coagulants.

This unsolidified tofu is hence the name.

"Tofu?"

O'Neill nodded in disbelief, but with some confusion.

Just as Chinese will know hamburgers, it is not surprising that Americans will know about tofu.

As one of the famous foods that appeared in the Han Dynasty in China, its reputation has long been spread overseas.

It's just that O'Neill really can't make too many connections between the tender, cheese-like, or even a little **-like thing in front of him and tofu.

"Both?"

O'Neill said and took a closer look at the two bowls.

Because the approach of these two things is so different.

Sun Hao nodded.

"Which one tastes more like cheese?"

And what he asked next made Sun Hao want to laugh.

Which one is more like cheese?

In this sentence, Sun Hao can understand that although O'Neill is a foodie, he is still more cautious than the Prigioni and Gabajosa he met in Spain.

Sun Hao pointed to the bowl of sweet tofu brain.

Although the question of which is more delicious, sweet tofu brain or salty tofu brain, will cause a world-class debate in China, Sun Hao is also telling the truth.

It's very simple, sweet tofu brain is at least as sweet as cheese.

O'Neill nodded, pulling the bowl of sweet tofu brains to him.

Just like the mineral water bottle that looked like oral liquid, it was originally a big bowl of tofu brain, but it was like a small bowl of dessert in front of O'Neill.

O'Neill, a little unaccustomed to holding the spoon, wanted to spoon a little into his mouth.

The thing was smooth and tender, and he scooped it up and fell straight back.

After a slightly embarrassed laugh, O'Neill simply put his mouth into the bowl this time and took a big bite.

A mouthful of sugar, but I finally ate it.

That is, the moment he ate it, O'Neill's eyes rolled rapidly.

This stuff is smooth and smooth, and it tastes much better than cheese!

"What's it called? What tofu? ”

O'Neill couldn't help but ask again.

"Unsolidified tofu."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

It can be seen that the food he prepared meets the standard of "unforgettable" that he said to O'Neill before.

O'Neill tried again, this time he managed to scoop up a large piece and stuff it into his mouth.

"I love it, I'm not usually a sweet tooth, it's too high in calories for me, but I like this."

O'Neal couldn't stop talking after eating.

After a while, he killed all the tofu brains that night, and he drank all the soup with him.

After he finished drinking, he looked at the salty tofu brain that night, with an unfinished expression.

"So it's salty?"

O'Neill asked.

His expression looked a little incredulous.

Sweet and salty, are two completely opposite flavors.

But now it's made in the same food.

Sun Hao smiled and nodded.

The reason why tofu brain has two completely different practices is simply because of China's vast territory.

The Yellow River, the Yangtze River, if you were to stay in Europe, you would be able to divide dozens of countries.

However, there is only one China in China, and there is a big difference between the north and the south, so there will naturally be a big difference in taste.

So there are two completely different ways to eat the same thing.

As for who you want to say is tastier, referring to the sentence mentioned earlier, this is a world-class debate topic.

O'Neill hesitated for a moment, but finally pulled the bowl of salted tofu brain to him.

In fact, just like Gabayosa at the beginning, foodies can't resist the temptation of food.

Especially with the foreshadowing of the bowl of sweet tofu brain in front.

"Wait a minute."

Before O'Neill could start, Sun Hao stopped him.

Then under O'Neill's gaze, Sun Hao stirred the bowl of salted tofu brains well.

Two kinds of tofu brains, eating is completely different.

O'Neill frowned a little as he looked at the mixed tofu brain, but he finally spooned it up and ate it.

The first bite in his mouth furrowed even deeper.

But after a while, he chewed slowly.

The salty tofu brain is filled with mustard and green onions.

He swallowed, a little hesitant, a little unsatisfied, and finally scooped another spoonful into his mouth.

This time, his brow didn't furrow again.

And soon, he began to scoop up the third spoonful, the fourth......

After a while, there was no soup left that night when the salty tofu brain was also eaten.

I've confirmed that I'm a person who loves tofu brains.

After eating both bowls, O'Neill felt like he had eaten.

His physique, sure enough, this little thing is only enough to pad his stomach.

"So which do you prefer to eat?"

Sun Hao asked with a smile.

Although it is a world-class topic, everyone has their own preferences.

He wondered which O'Neill's preference was.

O'Neill looked at the sweet bowl, then at the salty one, and finally shook his head.

"I know, they're two flavors, and I thought I liked sweet at first, but I found that salty is actually great!"

O'Neill finally gave his answer.

Sun Hao was surprised.

He didn't expect that there would be people in the world who liked to eat both tastes!

O'Neill, it's a little different!

But if O'Neill likes to eat, he can be considered to have fulfilled his original agreement.

When they were done, the two sat down and started chatting about the trade deadline.

This year's trade player market is a lot quieter than last year.

Last year's back-to-back trade for Rashid Wallace was a minor earthquake.

So, they're talking more about possible trades for the Lakers.

After the Lakers have been running in for most of the season, the rotation is basically dead.

After that, the question of the lineup came out.

They added too many backcourt players in the summer, but there was still a shortage of people on the front line, especially at small forwards.

It can even be said that Horry is too slow, Ariza is too tender, and they still lack a starting small forward!

But the Lakers are in a situation where all they can trade is base-salary players and draft picks.

And draft picks, they have already sent out next year's first round and 2 second rounds in order to trade Sun Hao.

As for the future, the Lakers management will also consider it.

O'Neill will be old after all, and they don't want to send the "future" out so early.

It was Sun Hao, who suddenly remembered Christie who greeted him that day.

Christie's style of play, similar to that of Diamantitis the "Octopus" of Greece whom he met at the Olympics before, is the kind of all-rounder player who can swing to play the PG/SG/SF positions, and is also excellent defensively.

Although he has come up in age and is no longer at his peak, there is still a little oil in the mailbox.

It's just that the chances of the Kings trading him to the Lakers are too low.

Not to mention the value of the trade, this kind of thing is like the Toronto and Orlando management that O'Neal complained about before, and other teams generally can't do it.

The two of them were talking.

At this moment, Sun Hao's mobile phone shook.

It was Paul Fu who sent him a message.

At the trade deadline, Fu Paul was used to sharing the first-hand trading information he knew with Sun Hao.

Sun Hao picked it up and looked at it, it was indeed a transaction, and it was a big deal.

It's just not the Lakers, it's the Bulls!
