Chapter Twenty-Six: Arenas
The game against the Washington Wizards started as scheduled at the Sleep Train Arena, and during the pre-game warm-up, Tyrek jumped into the side of the Wizards and walked to Arenas, who was dribbling under his crotch in a row under everyone's surprised gaze.
Seeing Tyrek walking towards him, Arenas didn't stop his movements, and asked with a smile, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Tyrek said excitedly, "Gilbert, I've admired you for a long time, and it's you that I admire the most in the league!" ”
Arenas stopped his movements and looked at Tyrek with a strange expression, Tyrek is now a well-known star after all, that excited look made Arenas scratch his head, just like Nash saw the excited Tyrek in the first preseason game, he was a little dazed, and he asked cautiously, "Are you okay?" Wasn't that the case when I saw you at the tournament last year? ”
Tyrek waved his hand and smiled, "No, no, I have to tell you, you're my idol!" ”
Arenas saw that Tyrek was so sincere, although he didn't know why this year's best rookie was like this, but he was in a good mood to be praised like this, "Brother has vision, your brother and my strength are absolutely speechless, Agent Zero is not called in vain!" I'll hand over you brother! ”
Now it was Terrick's turn to be stunned, how could this black man be so bold, and he would call himself a brother and sister when he praised him. But it's normal to think about it, I'm also an authentic black American now, and I'm now the number one person in the league, and it's really easy to arouse the favor of others if I take the initiative to boast about others.
Arenas walked to the sidelines, the game still had a while to start, and now there were only a few people in the stadium, so he directly found a spectator seat on the sidelines and sat down, and Tyrek also sat next to him, "Tyrek, I didn't expect it, why didn't I know you were still my fan?" ”
"Last season was a rookie season, a rookie, I'm embarrassed to say it......" Tyrek said serious nonsense, "plus last season's ...... of that incident", Tyrek subconsciously covered his mouth when he said this, he felt as if he had said something he shouldn't have said......
Seeing Tyrek's appearance, Arenas smiled and waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, everything happened, it's all gone, but I don't regret it, Critanton is not a good thing, it's just that I was in good shape last season, but I played so many games less......"
Speaking of which, Arenas couldn't help but have a hint of melancholy on his face, and his exaggerated training volume illustrated his attitude towards basketball, and that gun-toting shot did cost him a lot.
Arenas didn't care, but Tyrek knew that the impact it had on him couldn't be as light as he had suggested. At the same time, Tyrek knew that it would not be long before Arenas would be traded to the Magic until he disappeared from the league, which was really embarrassing.
Tyrek hesitated, but asked, "Gilbert, what do you think you would do if you were traded to another team?" ”
"It doesn't matter, I have a huge contract on me, I play everywhere, and I'm sure I'll be back at the top!" Arenas said confidently.
Arenas is always so confident and proud, what Tyrek wants to say, but forget it after thinking about it, he can't stop anything now, at least Arenas was once brilliant, and now he is a brother to himself, which is enough......
"Gilbert, then I won't bother you to warm up, I hope there will be a good game between us!" Terek stood up and said.
"Brother, I heard that the Chinese restaurant you opened is very popular now, I'll take your brother to try it after the game later!" Arenas said with a smile on his face.
"Okay, no problem, that's a must!"
Today's game, John. Wall didn't play for personal reasons, and Tyrek unexpectedly saw a person on the Wizards' bench, Yi Jianlian! Only then did I remember that Yi Jianlian was on the Wizards team at this time!
The game was not shocking, the Kings were all soldiers, 7 people scored double-doubles, Tyrek played average, played 26 minutes in the game, scored 17 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, although the Wizards Arenas shot high, but it was indeed inefficient, it was obvious on the court that he had lost the strength to kill all sides at his peak, although he played more than 40 minutes in the game, but only 7 of 21 shots, scored 22 points. In the end, the Sacramento Kings defeated the Washington Wizards 117-99 at home.
After the game, Arenas met up and came to Tyreco's Chinese restaurant, and Tyreco unexpectedly found that Arenas actually brought Yi Jianlian as well! Seeing Tyrek's surprised expression, Arenas laughed heartily and said, "Dude, you won the game today, and you don't want me to bring one more person here?!" ”
"How can that be, welcome, welcome!"
"Brother, after all, you run a Chinese restaurant, and our team happens to have an authentic Chinese, so I brought Yi with me......
Tyrek looked at Yi Jianlian beside Arenas, this is the leader of Chinese basketball after Yao Ming, but his NBA road is not very smooth. Thinking of Yao Ming, Tyrek can't help but think that Yao Ming is going to retire this season, and the last game of his career was a game against Yi Jianlian's Wizards a month ago.
Tyrek sighed with emotion in his heart, he no longer had the opportunity to play against Yao Ming in the NBA, and a wave of regret came to his heart. Although Tyrek is now a black American, he is still a Chinese in his heart, and Tyrek took the initiative to reach out, "Yi Jianlian!" I love China, you can tell if I have a Chinese restaurant......."
Yi Jianlian also stretched out his hand to Terek and said with a smile: "Tyrek. Evans, I have also heard of your name for a long time, and I will entertain you in China later! ”
"If I go to China, I have to take more exchanges with my teammates in the Chinese men's basketball team.
Arenas and Yi Jianlian entered directly from the gate of Penglai Pavilion, and at this time there were still a large number of diners in the restaurant, and when they saw Arenas and Yi Jianlian, the restaurant was boiling. But it's more because of Yi Jianlian, after all, it's a Chinese restaurant, and there are many Chinese in it, and when they saw Yi Jianlian appear here, everyone stepped forward to sign and take a group photo.
Arenas on the side seemed a little left out, Arenas shrugged helplessly, Terrick could only smile bitterly at him, Master Xu quietly appeared at Tyrek's side out of nowhere, and said quietly: "Boss, I estimate that our Penglai Pavilion will be on the news again tomorrow......"
