Chapter Twenty-Nine: Christmas
On December 25, 2010, Christmas finally arrived, and the entire city of Sacramento was in the mood for the holidays.
The Kings are not the big hits, and there is no Christmas game scheduled in the schedule, and the team does not play for the three days before and after Christmas, after all, it is the biggest holiday in the West, and the whole team has been given a vacation on these three days, and there is no team training for these three days.
Tyreco wanted to go to the gym and sweat it out, but thinking about it was his first Christmas in Sacramento, it would be better to get in the holiday spirit.
By mid-morning, Terek was getting ready at home, dressing himself up as Santa Claus, just as a rapid whistle sounded in front of his house.
Tyrek went out with a stuffed red cloth bag, a GMC Seway parked in front of the door, the window rolled down, and Cousins poked out his round head and a Santa hat and shouted at Tyreck, "Tyreco!" Hurry up! That's it! ”
"Isn't this coming!" Tyrek laughed and slipped into the car, and although he knew about it, he laughed out loud at the scene in front of him.
In the car, Cousins, Cosby, Thompson, and Whiteside were all squatting in Santa Claus clothes, Thompson was driving, Terrick was in the passenger seat, and the other three were sitting in the back. The interior space of GMC Saiwei is large, but with them, it suddenly looks crowded.
All five are youngsters on the Kings, with the eldest Thompson now 24. Tyrek had been friends with Cosby and Thompson in the offseason, and two rookies this year joined them. was originally a majestic figure on the court, but he became a group of Christmas men, which made people laugh when they looked at it.
Cousins slapped Thompson's seat in the back row and shouted excitedly, "Get started, Jason!" ”
"Okay! Let's go! Thompson kicked the gas pedal, and the car sped off and drove away.
Tyrek and his team traveled to the Rocklyn neighborhood near Old Sacramento to participate in a community care event organized by the Kings.
A park court in the Rocklyn neighborhood is crowded with teenagers and children from the Rocklyn community with backdrops with the Sacramento Kings logo around the court.
When Terek and the others appeared in the park stadium in the form of Santa Claus, everyone was boiling, and the stars of the Sacramento Kings were frantically sought after by the children.
The children came forward to surround them, and some even hugged them, and the scene was full of laughter.
"Hey, hey, kids, give me some space!" Tyrek had two teenage children hanging from him, and Tyrek laughed and picked them down, rubbing off the fake beards on his face.
Tyrek took out his autographed Kings fan shirt and various Kings fan memorabilia from the red cloth bag he was carrying, and Cousins and the others also took out the same thing from the red cloth bag they were carrying and gave these gifts to the children present.
Then they played a friendly game with the children, and a couple of Christmas boys played ball with a group of children on the pitch, and it was really fun. Playing with the children, Tyrek and the others also performed their own ball skills, wearing Santa Claus's clothes, playing all kinds of fancy dribbling skills, and from time to time to dunk the frame, all the faces of everyone were full of joy, especially Cousins, who smiled like a child of more than two hundred pounds......
Finally, Tyrek gave a closing speech on behalf of the Sacramento Kings, encouraging the children to grow up to be useful to society, talking about the Kings' goal of making the playoffs this year, and finally wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.
After the community event, Terec headed to his Chinese restaurant. In just a few months since it opened, Penglai has become one of the most well-known restaurants in Sacramento. This is due to the fact that many big-name stars come to Sacramento to play games, and of course, the main thing is that the chef Xu Dayou leads the chefs to cook the dishes that taste really good.
Today, the Penglai Pavilion also caters to Christmas, and has a lot of Christmas activities, and when Terek appeared in the lobby of the Penglai Pavilion, it pushed the atmosphere of the restaurant to a climax.
Although the team's results are not particularly good now, the win rate of more than 50% is much higher than last season, and Tyreco's popularity in Sacramento is also rising.
When the diners saw Tyreco, they came forward to ask for autographs and group photos, today is Christmas, in such a joyous festival, Tyrek naturally did not refuse, and at the same time, all the customers present presented each of the Kings mascot Simon Lion dolls.
In the afternoon, when there were fewer guests, Master Xu appeared beside Tyrek with a happy face, "Boss, have you seen it, this season's All-Star voting has begun, and the homepage of the King's official website has also launched a canvassing campaign for you, and I have already voted for you!" ”
"Oh? Yes! That's right, Master Xu! Tyrek teased with a smile.
"Of course I have to vote for the boss, the boss is the star of the Kings after all, and the record has improved a lot this season, and the boss's personal data is good, I feel like I have a chance to be an All-Star!" Speaking of this, Master Xu's eyes were full of brilliance.
"All-star, it's a beautiful thing to be able to enter, but it's still okay to meet it, it's still early......"
"It's not early, it's just over two months...... Master Xu muttered.
"Okay, Master Xu, I'll go back first, and the store will depend on you at night......" Tyrek said and left the Penglai Pavilion with brisk steps.
Terek's home has been decorated for a festive atmosphere, with a small Christmas tree in the center of the living room stacked with gift boxes that stand out.
Tyreco's three older brothers and four of his teammates, including Cousins, gathered at Tyreco's house, where they organized a party tonight to celebrate Christmas. After eating and drinking, everyone sat around to watch the Christmas game between the Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers, and finally the Heat relied on the excellent performance of the Big Three to win a big victory at the Staples Center, the home of the Lakers.
"Christmas War, when can I participate in it again......" Cosby stretched after watching the game and sighed.
"The Christmas game is a stage for the favorites and star teams, and we don't know when it will be our turn!" Thompson also sighed.
"But the Heat triumvirate is really strong, the three peak superstars are huddled, who can beat it?!" Whiteside, who hasn't played a few times this season, said on the sidelines.
Hearing Whiteside say this, Tyrek suddenly thought of something, and he suddenly said to everyone: "I feel...... We can call it the King's Five! No, no, no, the five kings! Hahaha! ”
Cousins, Whiteside, Cosby, and Thompson couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Tyrek say this, and then everyone laughed together: "Well, that makes sense! , yes, we are the kings of the five! Hahaha......"
