On January 3, 2018, after using the Chinese name of "Little Niu" for nearly two decades, the Dallas people issued an official announcement to confirm the new Chinese team name of "Lone Ranger".

Dallas Mavericks has since officially changed its name to the Dallas Mavericks!

The Dallas Mavericks faced defending champion Golden State Warriors in their first game after the name change, and the Mavericks seemed to be inspired by the new name, and fought with the Warriors to a tight 122-all game, only to be killed by Curry in the last ten seconds, and lost by three points in the final three points.

The Dallas name Maverick originally meant unbranded foal, and by extension, it was used to describe unruly and whimsical characters. In the old film "Top Gun" released in 1986, the code name of the protagonist pilot played by the high-spirited teenager Tom Brother is called maverick, which is also "lone ranger" in Chinese.

So you see, Maverick is talking about the unconventional, maverick guys. They may behave uncharacteristically and are not very likable, but they are usually great guys to be reckoned with.

For example, if you want to talk about the current Mavericks in the league, think about it, probably the Rockets' James Harden will be counted as one.

James Harden, bearded brother, No. 13 on his back symbolizing doom, has a long beard, and is often attacked as a terrorist by the conservative American people in the early days of his debut, which is not famous enough, but unfortunately Harden doesn't care, and the controversy can only be used as a label for his personality: going to nightclubs, hooking up with the entertainment industry, playing alone, not defending, cheating fouls... On him, it seems that the topic has never been broken, but anyway, Harden is like an immortal phoenix reborn in controversy, and every time he is reborn, he becomes stronger and stronger!

Adidas also shot an ad for James Harden last season that was probably the least serious spokesperson in the brand's history. Harden in the advertisement made fun of himself and directly asked his heart for the black fans: If I no longer have European steps, if I can only defend and no longer attack, if I also play in a well-behaved and dogmatic manner? No, Harden, who pretended to be negative, immediately affirmed himself: I don't think you're going to like it — I'm here to create it.

Subtext? I just like the way you guys don't like me and you can't help me!

As for what to create? I'm afraid it's embarrassing to say the word trouble!

So, Harden is still playing his basketball. Sweet and salty, slightly spicy, and sour!

Debuted from the Thunder, and switched to the Rockets in the finals. In an era when the league is all the rage, Harden is like a lone star who doesn't fit in, and he has partnered with two regular season MVPs, Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant, as well as former active No. 1 center like Dwight Howard, but he doesn't seem to be friends with anyone. Even after the arrival of Chris Paul, Harden and his spark seem to be limited to basketball on the court, off the court? Paul is probably closer to James, the other guy who almost became teammates.

But none of this is difficult for Harden, he still goes his own way, playing climbing basketball, and after being robbed of the MVP by his former teammate, he didn't snort, and he was chasing the MVP and scoring champion again.

It's a pity that the current process of his crazy race came to an abrupt end because of the injury to his left leg!

Although after James Harden was injured, Yang Yiming found Nina as soon as possible, and the promise of realizing her desire to earn more money and play more in the 2018 New Year caused her to have high expectations for the team to travel away, but then again, how to introduce Nina to him and let a lone ranger like James Harden accept the mysterious "Oriental Secret Technique", in fact, he has no confidence in his heart.

Influenced by Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun, Nina also tried to use WeChat. Yang Yiming pulled a group of three people and named it "Dr. Yang Division".

On this day, when returning to Houston from Orlando to wait for the flight, the three people under the "business unit" were worried about how to expand Harden's new business. Some of the group's chats are as follows:

Yu Xiaochun (WeChat name: Chun): @一鸣@妮娜, you two think about it, how do you get in touch with Brother Deng, is it possible for him to accept us?

Nina: What's there to think about, how did your previous players develop? Just use the old way.

Yiming: We used to talk directly.

Spring: Door-to-door sales.

Nina: Then let's continue to sell door-to-door.

Chun: I'm still a little worried.

Nina: What are you worried about? He's just a little scary, blowing his beard and glaring, but he won't eat you.

Yiming: To be honest, I didn't understand Brother Deng's temper a little. Sometimes he seems to be very troublesome and fun-loving, and seems to be very easy-going; But sometimes he does not say a word or get angry, but that serious expression can scare you to death.

Nina: Then let me tell you. You didn't plan to bring me along in the first place, so you could introduce yourself? I'm a woman, he won't do anything to me. What's more, what kind of guest I haven't seen ...

Chun: But...

Yiming: Koharu's concern is actually not that. He was afraid that he would not be persuaded once, and when he turned around, Brother Deng had some unspoken thoughts in his heart. After all, he is the boss of the team, and it is not good to be thought to be some kind of unreasonable weird guy..."The witch doctor combination from the East", he usually doesn't like to be colorful, who knows what is going on in his head.

Nina: Got it.

Nina: So James Harden, does he have any hobbies?

Yiming: Hobbies?

Nina: yes, except for basketball.

Yiming: This...

Chun: It's really hard to say, a star like him, there is nothing... Luxury cars, sneakers, but we don't seem to be able to do anything about it.

Spring: Is it a hobby to pick up girls in nightclubs?

Yiming: Sort it off. But I think Brother Deng has been very self-disciplined lately, and he doesn't hang out in nightclubs too much.

Nina: He's the guy who's talked to Khloe Kardashian and has been captured countless times by tabloid reporters.

Nina then reposted a photo of Harden and Kardashian taken by tabloid reporters, in which Harden was wearing a pompous sequined T-shirt, looking like Guan Gong and looking drunk. Kardashian walked in front, dressed in a strap-on** suit, and used a Chanel handbag to cover her face to avoid filming.

Chun: So Nina, you said you know Harden, that's what you know about through this kind of news?

Nina: yes, otherwise you'd think I know a few NBA players.

Spring: (laughing and crying)

Yiming: We seem to be off topic.

Chun: Well, let's talk about Brother Deng's hobbies. said that he is now clean and self-conscious, and says goodbye to the nightclub.

Nina: That's because he wanted to play well. Now that there are no competition tasks, do you think he will stay at home every night and be an otaku who plays games and goes to bed early and wakes up early?

Haru: This...

Yiming: So Nina, what do you mean?

Nina: Since you don't have the confidence to do it, why don't you let me go to a nightclub to meet him for a while?

Nina: I'm a bit bored anyway, so it's time for you to see what I'm a New York nightclub awe!

Yiming: (thumbs up)

Spring: 666

Nina: What does 666 mean?

Chun: It's just... We can't wait, haha.
