409: All things are going well
Mornings in Paris, France, always begin with an exquisite French breakfast.
A glass of aperitif, sweet but not slightly drunk. The bread is sliced and coated in a chef's handmade jam that will make your mouth water. In addition to bread, there are also a variety of grilled vegetables, vegetable soups, and vegetable purees! Fruit shortbread, poached eggs, salmon and more...... Just when these things are served, they are already a feast for the eyes.
No wonder people say that romance in France begins with breakfast.
When he was in China, Henson didn't eat breakfast all year round. Of course, this also caused him to suffer from stomach problems. After crossing over to the United States, Henson's breakfast was usually a simple cereal with coffee. It was only when Angeli was there that Henson had an omelette, and grilled sausages to eat.
After so many days in France, every time I had breakfast was Henson's most enjoyable moment. Start your day with these exquisite dishes.
At this time, it was almost the middle of July. It's been half a month since Henson signed the three-year, $27 million contract at Bird's office.
During this period, although there were no games in the league, various things big and small also happened.
For example, the Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets struck a shocking deal involving eight players and three draft picks.
The Nets sent three future first-round picks in 2014, 2016 and 2018, as well as Gerrard. Wallace, Evans, Singria, and Humphries are on expiring contracts, in addition to a sign-and-trade for Bogans. With so much chip, the Nets only want to get Garnett, Pierce and Jason from the Celtics. Terry.
Since last season Ray. Allen doesn't renew his contract with the Celtics and now the Celtics trade Garnett and Pierce, and the Green Shirts officially end their Big Three era. And the signing of Stevens, a young young coach, coupled with this deal, undoubtedly shows that the Celtics no longer want to go down so high. Starting next season, the traditional giants, who only won the championship in the summer of 2008, will officially start to rebuild!
Previously, the final obstacle to the deal was whether Garnett was willing to give up his veto on the deal, but in the end, this plan was agreed to by KG, and the big deal was announced. And this deal also allowed the Nets to form a "multi-giant" lineup in an instant.
Delong. Williams, Joe. Johnson, Pierce, Garnett plus Brooke, who the Nets themselves have. Lopez, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Nets have formed a "Big Five" lineup.
A quick championship, that's Nets general manager Kim. Terry's strategy. Although the Heat team has not won a championship in the past three years, this multi-giant team building model still seems to have been affected by the gold medal. Terry's favor. So, he did not hesitate to use three draft picks and a bunch of expiring contracts to form such a "quick championship" team.
However, Henson is not optimistic about this deal, as Henson, an old rival of the Heat, knows very well that a stack of stars does not mean a stack of wins. And Kim. Terry went out with three first-round picks in one go...... Henson really doesn't know if it's time to say Kim. Terry is still brain-dead or should he say Danny. Anji's old fox is shrewd.
This deal was just the beginning of a crazy summer, and in the days that followed, Josh. The news of Smith's 4-year 54 million transfer to the Pistons and "Warcraft" Howard's 4-year 88 million transfer to the Houston Rockets has made this crazy summer continue to heat up.
Howard's departure can be said to have basically abolished the Lakers. Because for Howard, the Lakers paid too much. As a result, Howard slapped his ass and left after playing for one season, which really surprised the Lakers.
With the current state of Kobe, Nash and Gasol, coupled with so many unreliable role players, the Los Angeles Lakers are estimated to be like their "old friends" Celtics, and they will begin to slowly decline.
Offseason trade and signing rumours are still buzzing, but Henson has fallen on deaf ears. Because the signing of the Pacers this summer is basically over after Bird renews his contract.
Henson believes that even if the Pacers don't make up for it this summer, the team will improve a lot. Because next season, George, Leonard and Jimmy. Butler and other young people will reach a relatively mature state.
The only thing Henson thinks about now is to spend time with his fiancée in France.
The two originally decided to get married this summer, but Henson didn't want to rush it, so he simply changed the marriage to an engagement. When the two return from Paris, they will also have a party at home to announce their official engagement.
The two rented a small villa in France, and other than that, no one bothered. Those hearty French breakfasts are all Anjiali's handiwork. Although it may be a little unauthentic, for Henson, as long as it is Angeli's breakfast, it is the most delicious.
In France, people care about football and not much about basketball. As a result, Henson and Angeli are rarely recognized, even if they don't wear sunglasses on the streets. It's as if a rugby star walks on the streets of China and the Chinese don't necessarily recognize it.
This passerby-like state made Henson and Anjiali a little less stressed.
Henson enjoyed his free time in France, and his spine gradually became less painful, and the tightness in his chest no longer appeared. And An Jiali found her second suitable career in addition to modeling - writing songs.
Although An Jiali is not a music major, as a rich girl, she has never stopped taking classes in this area since she was a child. She started learning piano at a young age, and her professional knowledge of music is not completely unknown. After learning to arrange music recently, Anjiali is even more out of control. Besides, a person of her status is never afraid of a lack of resources.
She plans to write an album this holiday with her experience traveling with Henson, and I have to say that Angeli's ideas are always wild. What's even more terrifying is that she does have the ability to turn wild ideas into reality.
As for Henson, he was planning whether to change houses at this time.
In this small half month, Henson enjoyed his leisure life in the villa incomparably. He enjoys not only the tranquility, but also the material facilities that go with it.
When you're bored, go to your backyard swimming pool, when you're bored, go to the garden to see the plants, or even just lie on a deck chair and enjoy the mild Parisian sun. And in Indianapolis, Henson only has two activities when he is home alone.
Watch the game footage, and quarrel with Husky Kona.
"You want to change to a small cottage?" After listening to Henson's thoughts, Anjiali was a little surprised.
She originally thought that Henson was not interested in all material life. However, it turns out that Henson was not a sage.
Nonsense, even if I had to use one word to describe Henson, it would be the word bastard. This guy has nothing to do with the sage.
"yes, I've heard that the house in Carmel isn't expensive. $1 million is enough to buy a villa that is even better than this one. Separate patio, swimming pool, garage...... And of course, very quiet. ”
Carmel was a wealthy neighborhood in Indianapolis. Matthews lives there. Because it is a wealthy area, it is natural that the house will be sold more expensive.
In the United States, two or three hundred thousand dollars can buy a very decent small cottage. Carmel's price of about $1 million is obviously higher than the ordinary market price.
$1 million, that sounds scary. But with Henson's current salary and advertising revenue, it doesn't seem that he can't afford to spend. You know, the diamond ring that Henson gave to Angeli is worth almost $1 million!
That's why Henson described it as "the house there is not expensive".
If you think about it three or four years ago, let alone a $1 million villa, Henson would be thankful as long as he didn't lose his job......
"And if we're going to have a party, we're probably not going to be able to hold everyone in that little nest right now. Instead of renting a villa for a party, you can just buy it! What do you think? ”
After that, Henson was about to check the house with his mobile phone, but at this moment a call came in.
Through the name of the caller ID, Henson saw that it was a woman who called. Indeed, Henson didn't know a few women except Anjiali. After all, he spends his days messing around with men and dealing with men all day long. But that doesn't mean Henson doesn't know a woman.
"Who is it?" Seeing that Henson was stunned and didn't answer, An Jiali asked curiously.
"Hmm...... A player. But I don't know if she will go from being a player to a coach after taking that call. ”
Eventually, Henson answered the phone. Sure enough, Becky came from inside the earpiece. Hamon's voice.
"I've decided I'm going to retire, when will you have time to interview me?" Harmon got straight to the point, and she didn't forget the conversation she had with Henson during last season's All-Star Game. At that time, Henson made it clear that he was willing to give Becky . Harmon has a chance to make his way into the NBA as an assistant coach!
Stevens just signed a five-year contract with the Celtics just a few days ago and officially became a head coach. And Stevens' departure also leaves a big void on the Pacers coaching staff.
Perhaps, Becky. Can Harmon really fill the void left by Stevens?
"As long as you're ready, Becky, we're ready to go."
Henson smiled slightly, this summer, everything is really going well......
