"Coach, are you the man who gave up all the time? Oh, don't say it, little Jimmy and the coach you look ......" Liu Mang asked in a low voice, looking at Coach Kruger's age, 44 years old, and then looking at little Jimmy, it's really ...... Not at all.

"Get out of here! Don't let little Jimmy hear it! Coach Kruger was so angry that he kicked at Liu Mang.

Liu Mang hurriedly dodged, of course, what he said just now was a joke, but he didn't expect that Coach Kruger was not there in the afternoon, so he actually went to the police, and then found Jimmy Butler, and then went to the tax office to get the property report, and then went to the immigration bureau to apply for a temporary adoption certificate.

Coach Kruger has a good social status and a good income, and only needs to wait for the police to thoroughly investigate Jimmy Butler's family situation and determine that his mother does not have the right to continue to take care of the children, and the prosecutor can apply to the court on behalf of the prosecutor to forcibly cancel the power of his mother's guardian, and Coach Kruger will take care of Jimmy Butler.

As for the funding of it, it is naturally coached by Kruger

As for adopting for Mao at the immigration bureau, Liu Mang really didn't know.

Originally, Jimmy Butler wanted to refuse, he was very strong, but Coach Kruger did not ask him to change his surname, nor did he ask him to call him "Dad", he just wanted to take care of him growing up, and in the end, Jimmy Butler still agreed and returned to Atlanta with Coach Kruger.

Coach Kruger used to have children, but he died of asthma when he was a child, and he divorced because of it, and now he still lives alone, and he has no idea of remarrying, so he wants to have a child, and he just happened to meet Jimmy Butler.

After Coach Krueger learned that Jimmy Butler was a basketball fan, he took him to the Staples Center and asked the Clippers for a ticket to Jimmy Butler to watch a game live for the first time in his life.

The Clippers don't dare to agree to the opponent's request for tickets now, especially since the Hawks have Liu Mang, the main man who goes berserk if he doesn't agree with him......

Seeing that Coach Krueger brought such a big "son" to visit the locker room, the Eagles players were all interested in Jimmy Butler, and many people brought out gifts they had at hand to give him.

I don't know who started to call Jimmy Butler in the noise, and this nickname was destined to accompany little Jimmy in his teenage years.

Jason Terry was addicted to sending mobile phones, ran to buy a mobile phone near the Staples Center, since the second half of last year, the price of mobile phones has fallen in free fall like jumping off a building, and now you can buy a very beautiful mobile phone for 300 US dollars, the development of communication technology and the improvement of technology have made mobile phones more ordinary and more relevant to daily life.

Liu Mang gave Jimmy a new pair of sneakers, of course, from his cold generation, who went to the Nike store near Staples Center to buy them.

Raheem took little Jimmy to buy a few sets of clothes, and even Barnes, the poorest member of the team, gave him a skateboard.

The Eagles players all gave Jimmy Jr. a welcome gift.

Ratliff has been in a good mood recently, and he has just been selected as an All-Star starter, and he directly took out a wad of money, estimated to be about 10,000 US dollars, and gave it to little Jimmy as a meeting gift.

Little Jimmy accepted all the gifts, but Little Jimmy refused Ratliff's money.

"What's the matter, little Jimmy, why do you want their gifts, don't you want them to give them?" Ratledge asked curiously.

"Uncle Theo, you're not a gift, I can't ask for your money." Little Jimmy said very seriously.

Ratliff was amazed that a child could have such backbone, so he said, "Oh? What gift do you want, little Jimmy? I'll buy it for you! ”

"I want a computer!"

"Why?"

"When I was in Tombal, my neighbor's big brother learned to use a computer, got a good job, and the whole family moved to Houston, and I wanted to be a software engineer too!" Little Jimmy has his own ideals!

"Well, little Jimmy, your ideals are good, young people nowadays really need to know how to use computers, I'll buy you ...... when I get back to Atlanta."

Liu Mang looked at little Jimmy and actually said that his ideal is to become a code farmer?

Longevity! And what about the most inspirational super small forward of the future?

……

……

How special is the Clippers' approach to selecting the future core?

It's so special that it's unbelievable that he actually uses the method of "rotating leave", probably the pioneer of the matter of rotating leave.

Odom, who played 45 games for the Clippers, only played 30 times, and as a fourth-year player, he is still a talented young player whose strength and talent can be seen with the naked eye, and he actually did not get a chance to play in a third of the games without injuries.

Margeti has nine games not played, and Brand has seven games not played......

It's so coquettish, it's so handsome, it's enviable, it's jealous, it's so disgusting that you want to trample them to death.

Liu Mang sat on the sidelines and watched Jason Terry go up and take Prince, Barnes, Boozer, and Muhammad to play on the Clippers, whose lineup is theoretically much stronger than their lineup, and it was a pity for the Clippers.

And then there is no then, the Clippers have improved this year Quentin Richardson, and Olovo Kandi has also continued to improve, with a contract year, averaging 13+9 per game, everyone is brushing up on the data, playing their own games, and they are not the opponents of the second team on the Hawks' side at all.

Last year, the Clippers played okay because most of them were still in the first three years of their rookie contracts, and most of them this year are in contract years and are finished directly.

Not surprisingly, the Hawks won four straight games against the Clippers 119-105 and finished January by a strong 22-20 record, tying the 23-23 Washington Wizards.

……

The Hawks booked a separate ticket for Liu Mang to return to Atlanta on the night of the Clippers game, and it was not simply to ridicule Liu Mang, because everyone knew that Liu Mang was going to move, and the Hawks only had two days off after the Clippers played, and Liu Mang could move early if he went back early, so as not to delay the difficult 13 games in February that began on the 3rd.

Since there is an All-Star weekend, the Hawks have seven days off halfway through, so it's 21 days and 13 games, and they can be as tight as they want.

With 42 regular season games played, the Hawks are already halfway through their schedule, and the rest of the league is already halfway through their regular seasons.

The regular season is from November to April, and basically the completion of January can be regarded as more than half of the schedule.

At the end of the halfway season, the San Antonio Spurs won the halfway championship with no suspense of 35-10.

Duncan is too strong this year, the score has declined compared to last year, and he has scored an average of 23 points per game, but this is inseparable from the Spurs' certain reinforcement, while averaging 23 points per game, he also got a career-high average of 13 rebounds and 4 assists plus 3 blocks per game, and the average of 23+13+4+3 per game is blinding, ranking eighth in the league in scoring, and no one can shake the league's average of 32 points per game, Kobe Bryant was almost 32 points per game, but O'Neal is back, His score has dropped a lot all of a sudden, and he has fallen below 31 points in a few games; Rebounds are second only to Ben Wallace's 15 boards per game and Garnett's 14 boards per game, second only to Ratliff's 3.6 blocks per game and Ben Wallace's 3.3 blocks per game, and second only to Garnett's 6 assists per game among players over 2.06 meters tall.

At the same time, the Spurs still have the best record in the league, and after only three months of play, Duncan has become the best choice for the regular season MVP in the hearts of the media, experts, and fans.

The teams in the East and West that can make the playoffs can also be roughly seen.

The Kings, Mavericks, Timberwolves, and Trail Blazers are competing for the other three spots in the top four in the West, with the Kings and Mavericks leading the way with the Kings 33-13 and the Mavericks 32-14.

The Timberwolves and Trail Blazers are still so close that they are fighting for fourth place in the West, with both teams winning 29-16.

The Lakers are sixth in the West with 27 wins and 16 losses, and the Jazz are seventh in the West with 27 wins and 17 losses.

The Rockets have a lot to thank the Hawks for knocking out the Suns, who are eighth in the West with 25 wins and 20 losses, and the Suns are ninth in the West with 24 wins and 21 losses.

In addition to these nine teams, no other team in the west has a winning rate of 50%, the stronger the team, the better the record, and the weaker the team in the same division, the worse the record.

On the eastern side, the playoff competition is much more fierce than in the west, and if any team breaks out, it is possible to jump from tenth to first.

The Pacers, who are first in the East, have the same record as the Trail Blazers at 29-16, and the Hawks, who are 10th in the East, are 22-20.

With such a record, if it weren't for the Hawks' maddening schedule in February and March, the Hawks would really want to vote for him.

By now, basically the strength of each team has been fully displayed, the Western Conference playoffs are up for the nine teams, the East is up for the ten teams, and the rest, for James and Carmelo Anthony, a first-year talent at Syracuse University who began to go berserk in January this year, have begun to prepare for a complete mess.

……

When I returned to Atlanta, it was already early in the morning, Liu Mang rushed back to the apartment, it was dark, and the little Lori who usually waited for Liu Mang to go home had already slept in her room on the sixth floor, and it was estimated that she was tired from helping to clean up her things.

Americans are also strange, many rich people, moving, packing things, and even repairing the roof of the villa, do it themselves, instead of hiring someone.

When I returned to my suite, I saw that the things that had been packed, only the mattress, sheets, and quilt on the bed had not been packed.

Sitting on the sofa, looking at the strong Schwarzenegger poster has been taken down, and the familiar things have been packed, looking at the familiar bedroom door, looking at the sofa that he can only sleep on for half of the past year or so and the small room occupied by Dinah.

I've lived in this room for almost four years, and finally, it's time to leave.

Even this apartment Levia has been handed over to the real estate center for sale, this apartment is very close to the metro station, tram stop, it is very sought-after, and it is certain that it will be sold.

I won't be able to come back in the future, maybe I won't even be able to enter this door in the future, Liu Mang was a little sentimental.

But......

Life always changes!

Liu Mang hasn't seen the new villa that Levia bought yet, and he still has a little expectation, and the life of luxury capitalism is coming!

Liu Mang came to the balcony and shouted to the sky: "Goodbye apartment!" Dear big villa I'm coming! ”

"I'm going to die! Where did you come from, stupid! What are you doing at three o'clock in the morning! ”

It was originally dark downstairs, but at this moment, the lights of thousands of homes were brilliant, and the cursing was endless, Liu Mang quickly pretended not to know, and then shouted two sentences: "Where did you come from...... stupid fork?"
