Chapter 1051: The Lakers Are Interested in Bryant (First Update!) )

Walker put down the red jacket, Tang Tian also forgot about taking the key for a while, and the two of them sat on the edge of the bed and chatted about their college days in the past.

When it all started, Tang Tian was just a caddy at the University of Connecticut.

"Don, it still feels like a dream in retrospect, it only took you six years to go from being a caddy to being the number one in the league."

When Walker remembered what happened 7 years ago, he couldn't help but sigh.

Although Tang Tian had a very good relationship when he was a caddy, and he also knew the efforts behind Tang Tian over the years.

But to really look at the result, it's really like he said, it's fantastic.

"Something even more fantastic is happening, we're playing on the same team now."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

Walker nodded and laughed.

No one would have thought that the two people who led UConn to an incredible championship would reunite in New Orleans.

Sure enough, every encounter in life is a reunion after a long absence?

"Anyway, I haven't watched you eat cake during the game now, did you eat it at halftime?"

Memories are like springs of water, they keep coming out when you open your mouth.

When he was playing at Kangda, Tang Tian ate cake during the game, which was a beautiful scenery, and after he heard about it, Tang Tian even endorsed the cake.

"Haha, at that time, it was purely because Elizabeth gave a lot, and the cake was a little easy to digest and a little hard to digest."

Tang Tian said with a smile, that memory was really as sweet as a cake.

"Elizabeth is really a master of love, and her vision is really good."

There was a hint of vinegar in Walker's words.

"No way, who made me handsome."

Tang Tian laughed and laughed, only to be complained by Walker.

"Speaking of this, I didn't expect you to get married and have children now, and you are already a father."

After laughing, Tang Tian said with emotion.

Walker was a chick in college, and he still remembers very well that when he first went to the bar, Walker was pushed backwards, and finally got up and went outside to blow the wind.

But now it's also a father and a husband.

Sure enough, as Walker himself said, when he meets someone he likes, Muyu will also become sensible.

"Speaking of which, you've really helped me a lot, both mentally and technically."

Walker also sighed.

"Learn to accept failure, you haven't failed, learn to accept injuries, this is something that will be difficult for you to avoid in the NBA in the future, learn to accept adjustments, if adjustment is that easy, then who will guarantee that the changes it will bring to you will be good?"

"To be truly strong is not to defeat how strong an opponent is, but to defeat yourself."

At the beginning of the NCAA, the words that Tang Tian said to him, even though it has been so long, are still in his ears.

This is also the reason why he still maintained a high fighting spirit in the past with the Hornets, even if he encountered so many difficulties and setbacks.

Of course, Tang Tian also guided him to change the way of breaking through and exerting force, from ankle to hip, which also benefited him a lot.

"To be honest, I doubt you're just a 20-something, because you really look like Old Man Cajon a lot of the time."

Walker concluded.

"Ahaha, delusion, who called me not only handsome, but also precocious."

Tang Tian continued to laugh.

Walker shook his head helplessly.

Tang Tian is humble and low-key in front of the media, but he has a good relationship to know that he is actually a very casual person.

This is also a very important reason why he is willing to accept Tang Tian's recruitment of the Pelicans.

The two of them exchanged for a long time in the room.

They see each other every year and train together every year.

But it's the first time I've sat down like this and reminisced about the past.

There's really a lot to talk about when you become a teammate at the beginning, and then you become a teammate again.

It's not just what they say, it's also the games and the opponents of March Madness.

All told, the class of 2011 is a recognized draft year, with no quality rookies other than Irving.

But now, that kind of remark has been completely slapped in the face.

Harris and Parsons became quasi-All-Stars, Irving, Walker and Thompson became All-Stars, Leonard and Butler became supergiants, and Tang Tian became the first person in the league.

It is no exaggeration to say that the quality of this draft is completely comparable to that of the 96 and 03 generations, which can be called the new golden generation.

And most of these people are the opponents that Tang Tian and Walker faced in the NCAA March Madness.

Their championship that year was definitely underrated.

"We will complete the dynasty with absolute superiority."

At the end of the conversation, Walker said to Tang Tian with a firm gaze, just like the NCAA was crazy three months ago.

As a brother, he knew what Tang Tian's reason for forming this super team was.

As a brother, he will definitely give his best!

Tang Tian smiled and nodded.

Not only will they be, but they will.

A week after the hard work brothers' training camp began, Irving and Thompson also arrived.

There were more than a dozen people in the training hall at once, which was quite lively.

"Don, you play Laipi, next season doesn't count!"

Thompson "aggressively" asked Tang Tian for his guilt.

"Don, don't think you're stable."

Owen didn't know where to get the mamba bones, and "shouted" at Tang Tian.

Although he didn't end up in the metropolis as Tang Tian suggested, he formed the Big Three in Milwaukee, and it can be seen that he is full of confidence.

Tang Tian had long been immune to their words.

He was chatting with Drummond and Lamb.

Previously, the Pelicans were able to successfully send Boban to the Pistons, and Drummond helped a lot in that.

Lamb, on the other hand, is worried about his situation and prospects in Charlotte.

Originally, the Hornets signed Lamb because of Walker's relationship, but now that Walker is gone, Lamb's prospects there are predictably miserable.

However, he still has a year left on his contract with the Hornets, and he is not an obvious player like George and Irving, so he can't decide his future.

While chatting, Demps came to the arena again.

In the past two days, he has been busy negotiating things, and now the results have been achieved.

Dedmon's negotiations went well.

This Spurs player from last season is still quite popular in the free market, and the Hawks offered him a two-year, 12.3 million contract.

Dedmon was also interested in the contract, but after the Pelicans stepped in, Dedmon quickly changed his mind.

Going to a super team like the Pelicans, and playing as a starting center, doesn't really have to think about it.

In the end, the Pelicans successfully won the contract with a 2-year, 12 million contract.

Demps used 6 million of the full middle class.

But not all went smoothly.

Carter politely declined because he was afraid that the Pelicans would not have playing time, Joe Harris is also ready to sign a long-term contract with the Nets, and even Nick Young is ready to sign a 5 million contract with the Warriors.

After the Pelicans used up the 6 million part of the full middle class, they only had the remaining part of the middle class of 2.4 million and the base salary, which is very low competitiveness in comparison.

"The Lakers are interested in Bryant."

However, in addition to these two news, Demps also brought another news to Tang Tian.
