Long Island is a quiet and peaceful area, with villas of all colors nestled in greenery. The villa is surrounded by tall trees, as if living in a forest.

Bruce's home is located in a small town called Letington. There are very good educational resources and community facilities. Professor Li's villa is considered to be in the upper middle of the range, although it was less than a million when it was purchased, it has grown to nearly $1.8 million with an annual increase of about 15 percent.

But neither Ms. Wang Junzhu nor Professor Li Jieke have any plans to sell this property for cash. This house carries so many memories.

After Li Zhen returned to Letington, he immediately alarmed many neighbors, and they came over to greet him warmly.

No one expected that Bruce, who grew up watching from a young age, become a big star and make a huge name on the West Coast.

"Hey, Bruce. You should join the Knicks, a team that has broken the hearts of the fans and needs your support. ”

Uncle Greg, who always wears a Knicks Ewing jersey in the summer, shouts hard to Bruce, he is a die-hard Knicks fan. In the last century, when he was a teenager, he followed his father to become a Knicks fan. But after all these years, the Knicks are getting worse and worse.

Since the beginning of the new millennium, Isaiah Thomas has given him hope, Stephen Marbury has given him hope, Eddie Curry has given him hope, and Larry Brown has given him hope...... But.

"Who would have thought that we would spend the most expensive luxury tax in the league and not even make the playoffs......"

Uncle Greg became angrier the more he spoke, and Bruce was worried about the risk he was taking with the gardening cutter in his hand.

Vivian's little sister next to her obviously didn't want Greg to take up too much time, she was very eager to ask about Lindsay Lohan's news, she was very eager to know if Lindsay Lohan was drunk driving, and whether she and Hillary Duff had a backstage fight at the MTV awards ceremony, and... Have you become a couple?

Vivian has already flaunted her closeness to Bruce at her school more than once.

So, before Bruce even had time to answer her first question, she couldn't wait to take out her camera and shoot all kinds of things, and also asked Bruce to cooperate with her in all kinds of actions: because it wouldn't make people think it was computer-synthesized.

In addition to Vivian and Uncle Greg, there are many people who care about what happened to Bruce after he became famous.

If it weren't for Li Zhen saying that he had a stomachache, this group of gossipy neighbors would definitely be more enthusiastic.

But... It's actually quite interesting.

Bruce shrugged his shoulders, everyone was just gossiping. It will be fine after a while.

However, it wasn't until Uncle Greg knocked on his door in the middle of the night that he realized he had become a celebrity in New York.

The Isaiah Thomas guy went so far as to declare in the media: "Bruce Lee is the most talented player in this rookie class." ”

Crazy?

When Li Zhen saw the news on TV, he realized that Uncle Greg, who was 180 tall and weighed 260, would be so excited.

"I don't hate Isaiah Thomas anymore if he can keep you in the Knicks." Greg emphasized.

Then, cynicism began on television against Isaiah Thomas.

“… Isaiah Thomas must have thought the Knicks' backcourt wasn't chaotic enough. In other words, as general manager, he didn't realize what the team's problems were. ”

"This past season, the Knicks' roster was already badly unbalanced. There was no one available on the inside, Eddie Corey was weak on offense and defense, and Jerome James was a complete chicken rib and wasted a valuable mid-level contract. The outside line has hoarded a group of stars: Marbury, Quentin Richardson, Jamal Crawford, plus Jalen Rose and Steve Francis, who were traded in the middle of the season. It can be said that there are many big names. ”

None of them, however, satisfied Brown. None of them can defend, and these big names are self-conscious and unteamed, and passing is a complete luxury for them, and Brown's tactics of putting defense first, splitting the ball, and sharing shots simply don't work. That's why the Knicks are in a quagmire right now. But... Isaiah Thomas's solution turned out to be to pick another point guard from the draft who was weak in confrontation and weak defense. Crazy? ”

New York State's television media is always so violent. "How did a guard who didn't score a point in a Los Angeles Lakers tryout and got knocked over twice end up at Madison Garden?"

This made Uncle Greg quite angry.

"They don't understand your talent at all. Bruce, I believe in you! ”

Li Zhen expressed his gratitude, and then he also told Uncle Greg frankly: "Actually, the possibility of me joining New York is very low. Because I didn't do any substantive training at Knicks training camp today, Isaiah Thomas said that probably to divert some other moves. ”

Forehead?

Uncle Greg was furious again, and he immediately scolded Isaiah Thomas again: "This old bastard!" Not to mention the bad Nix, he actually uses you to divert the contradictions!! It's so damning! I'll definitely go to the fan forum to expose him!!

About 10 minutes later, he started scrolling through the Knicks fan forum.

The netizen named 'Little Gargamel in Blue' has been constantly attacking Isaiah Thomas on the forum, accusing him of his poor record this past season, and swearing that the accusation of Thomas is to divert the focus. And emphasized that he and Bruce Lee are neighbors, and the tryout is simply a cover, with no substance at all.

Finally, he didn't forget to post an intimate photo of Vivien and Bruce Lee to prove his neighbor identity.

Crazy Knicks fans immediately stepped up their attacks, and occasionally two crooked netizens praised them: Little Gargamel in blue is so cute.

The next day, Bruce Lee was on his way to the airport when he received a call from Isaiah Thomas.

"Awesome, Bruce. Today the media scolded me, and your rank has dropped again. This means that we are much more likely to work together. I don't even have to trade top-10 picks anymore. ”

Thomas's voice didn't sound ironic at all, and he couldn't have been happier.

For the past month, the vicious New York media has been looking for material to baash Isaiah Thomas. Last night's post on the fan forums immediately caught their attention, and they rushed to concoct the news and lash out at Thomas.

Say he eats human blood steamed buns, say he deliberately diverts focus, say he is using the NCAA MOP.

And this crazy public opinion came down.

Li Zhen inexplicably became a victim again, and the major rookie prediction lists all fell out of the first round.

MTF！！

Bill Duffy couldn't help but burst into foul language, this scene... He really hasn't seen it before.

After all, the Lakers have already made a solid draft promise. Isaiah Thomas's side couldn't figure out whether he was talking hi or 'turning his heart to the bright moon', but his pursuit posture was still very clear.

But when it comes to the media, why does it make Bruce seem to be ignored?

It's all down to the second round.

"I guess the Golden State Warriors' management team may not be able to give a good look at Oakland this time." Bill Duffy analyzes from the perspective of his professional agent.

Li Zhen also nodded, yes, it's all fallen like this, what else can I do?

Bill Duffy even began to think, why not take a trip to Charlotte? Anyway... It's all fallen like this, use Michael Jordan's negative BUFF to stimulate it, maybe the negative will be positive?

But in the end, after thinking about it, I gave up.

After all... Now that the Lakers are backing, no matter how bad they look outside, they can go to it, and they will be shocked when the time comes!
