Addison, who returned to training camp, underwent a systematic physical test to ensure that he was free of any injuries when the new season began. After testing, his physical stats have not decreased due to the offseason, but have all increased to a certain extent-

Height: 1.84 meters barefoot and 1.86 meters tall with shoes

Weight: 80 kg

Speed: 10.81 seconds for 100 meters, 10.93 seconds for round-trip run in the penalty area, 3.05 seconds for 3/4 sprints

Bench press: 15 bench presses in the 84kg category

Arm span: 2.03 meters in reach, standing in place and feeling 2.48 meters high

Bounce: 92 cm vertical bounce on the spot, 107 cm run-up jump

Fat: Body fat content 5.1%

……

The increase in height, weight and strength can meet Addison's ability to complete the task better on the defensive end in the new season, but what he didn't expect was that his arm length actually increased by 2 centimeters in less than a year, which is even more obvious than the increase in height. For basketball players, the length of their arm span can determine a lot, and even measure their ceiling on the defensive end, Addison's arm span of more than 15 centimeters is already very good among point guards, and now the increased arm can undoubtedly help him strengthen the threat on both the offensive and defensive ends in the new season.

"I'm doing well, Eddie, and of course I have a lot to do with that." Rutgers reviewed the Chinese point guard's medical report, maintaining his usual meticulous expression on his face, "I think you should also treat me to dinner to show your appreciation, I don't ask for much, I must have Frankfurter sausages in the menu." ”

Addison rolled his eyes, the Germans had always been as paranoid about ham as they were about beer...... Of course, Addison didn't understand this even more, because he never drank.

After the day's practice, the Chinese point guard rarely chose to continue the practice, but returned to his residence early, changed into a casual suit, left the house, and drove straight to Coral Gables, a small town on the outskirts of Miami. Coral Gables is part of Miami, a small city of just over 40,000 people that is one of the most well-known in the United States, home to the famous Coral Court, Miami's affluent neighborhood, and home to the University of Miami.

Addison, who had been involved in the U.S. Championships after a business trip in the summer, didn't know that Lin Xiaoxiao had been admitted to the University of Miami in August to major in art history, and that he had been crossing the ocean to enter the institution of higher learning for a month. It wasn't until he rushed back to Miami from Toronto that he received a call from Lin Xiaoxiao angrily, asking him why he didn't just ask if he had been admitted, and then he learned that this girl had been in the United States for a while......

"It's really hot in Miami, Addison! I thought the summer in G City was okay enough, but now I find myself still too naïve! Lin Xiaoxiao is still wearing a goose yellow T-shirt and a white heat-insulated shirt, revealing straight and white legs under the denim shorts. Now she doesn't seem so keen on combing her hair into a double ponytail, instead wearing her long hair straight and a white plate hat on her head, a Heat-themed plate hat.

Addison did not respond to the girl's complaints, but looked at the two companions who walked with her, two young Asian women with the same black hair and yellow skin. Their appearance is much more mediocre than Lin Xiaoxiao, one of them has medium-long hair, and the other has neck-length short hair. The two girls were originally scrutinizing with vigilant eyes, and after seeing that the person who came to meet Lin Xiaoxiao was Addison, the short-haired girl in one of them was obviously relaxed, while the other still had a serious expression.

"To introduce, this is Iori Shimaki, my roommate; This is Du Yujia, my sister who was very close to me when I was a child, and has been in Miami for more than five years. Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and introduced her companion to Addison, her roommate from Dongying shook Addison's hand very stiffly, but Du Yujia behaved very generously and decently, perhaps because she had lived in Miami for a long time.

"I thought it was a member of an unsightly Asian club who wanted to ask Xiao Xiao out to play, but I didn't expect it to be an NBA star...... Looks like this girl really didn't lie to me. The short-haired girl smiled heartily, and her words were slick and straightforward, "I've been following the Heat's games, and you're going to try your best to win the championship this season, right?" ”

"My highest dream to enter the league is the O'Brien Cup, and if I can't do whatever it takes, I'm sorry for myself...... Well, at least I'm sorry for myself. Addison replied without hesitation, and the other party's style made him feel very compatible, "Anyway, you and classmate Lin have known each other for a long time?" ”

"As this girl herself said, we've known each other since we were kids. I'm four years older than her, so I'm a sister, at least I'm much more competent than Lin Yanmo's tsundere. Du Yujia shrugged her shoulders disappreciatively and put her hand in the pocket of her pants, "Her father is my father's direct boss, this should be regarded as a kind of nepotism, right?" After staying in the United States for a long time, I feel that my Chinese level has dropped. ”

- What an interesting guy...... Addison looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, who was blushing a little, and covered his companion's mouth to prevent this overly honest sister from continuing to confess without reserve, and he smiled softly. Addison somewhat understood why the Lin family, who had always cultivated Lin Xiaoxiao as the pearl of his palm, was willing to send his daughter to the University of Miami, originally thought that it was because of Lin's father's consistent doting and obedience to his daughter, but now it seems that it is more than that. The University of Miami, located in Coral Pavilion, can be regarded as the safest place on the East Coast of the United States, not to mention that there is an older sister who has lived in Miami for many years. Father Lin is worthy of being an accomplished businessman, and he can be thoughtful while obeying his daughter's wishes, which Addison admires very much.

"Ah, then let's go back, you and Xiao Xiao have fun! This girl hasn't been around Miami since she entered college, and I'm usually too busy to leave school alone. Du Yujia received Lin Xiaoxiao's self-concealed look, and immediately pulled Shimaki Iori to say goodbye to Addison with a smile. Addison was slightly stunned, he thought that Lin Xiaoxiao was going to take these two companions to visit Miami together, it turned out that those two were just here to be overseers.

"Your friend is very interesting, she does look more like your sister than Lin Yanmo." Addison looked at the backs of the two girls walking away and joked to Lin Xiaoxiao. But this can be regarded as his real feeling, Du Yujia's concern and tolerance for Lin Xiaoxiao revealed in just a few sentences is very obvious, she is a completely different type from Lin Yanmo, a girl who is used to covering her feelings with reserve.

"Lin Yanmo's identity is not a sister, she is an old enemy, an old enemy......" Lin Xiaoxiao deliberately wrinkled the bridge of his nose with a dissatisfied look, and then patted Addison's arm, "Okay, hurry up and let me get in the car." Why is it still so hot in September in Miami? If I continue to do this, my skin will turn dark! ”

Lin Xiaoxiao naturally does not have the American woman's awareness of the beauty of tanning skin, she has always been proud of her fair complexion, and she hates anything that will hurt her skin. Addison smiled and opened the door of his Chevrolet Camaro and let the girl sit in the passenger seat. Since watching the "Transformers" movie before, he has become a big fan of the Camaro series to which Bumblebee belongs, and he has not changed his love for this car for so many years.

"Do you want to go there first, Mr. Lin? You can't spend a night in Miami, but there's nothing wrong with the affluent area. Addison, who started the car, asked, after the start of the new season training camp, he would rarely be able to spare half a day to accompany Lin Xiaoxiao to meet his desire to visit the city. Professional athletes have regular schedules during the season, but they are very busy.

"Well, let me think about it first......" Lin Xiaoxiao pinched his moist cheeks with one hand, and then suddenly his eyes lit up, "I'm going to the pet store!" There are a lot of pet shops with cats! ”

Addison's heart chuckled when he heard this, and he suddenly had a bad premonition: "Ahem, cough, cough...... Well, how can you run to a pet store when you visit the city? Aren't they usually going to famous spots or good restaurants? When can't I go to a pet store? ”

"But I just want to go now, Douhua can't follow me to the United States, I want to get a new cat." Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Addison, who was trying to struggle, "This is my wish now, Miami has no shocking places other than the beach, how can cats be important?" ”

- This girl is definitely deliberate...... Addison's face turned bitter, and he could see that Lin Xiaoxiao was deliberately threatening him to get a cat quickly. The University of Miami definitely does not allow students to keep pets in the dormitory, and the cat naturally has no other choice than keeping it in Addison's house.

"Spare me, Mr. Lin, I feel uncomfortable as soon as I enter the place where there is strong hair and smell in the pet store...... How about we have time to buy a cat online? ”

"No matter what, how can it be better to buy online than to go to the store and carefully select cats? The choice of pets is to have the intersection of eyes and feelings, if you choose not well, your pet may never understand you. ”

“…… Why should I let a pet understand me, it's not my wife......"

However, Addison's resistance was to no avail, and he eventually drove Lin Xiaoxiao to a private pet store closest to the University of Miami. Originally, he only planned to choose a random cat, but the girl forcibly ordered him to choose one of the Ragdolls, Maine, and Manchiken cats, and to make eye contact with the kittens one by one like a psychopath. Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao smiling happily and brightly on the side, Addison had no choice but to follow her ideas.

Half an hour later, Lin Xiaoxiao walked out of the pet store with a smile and a four-month-old Manchican cat with a satisfied expression, while Addison rubbed his eyes and followed behind. He looked at each other for half an hour with most of the kittens in the pet store, and the young Chinese felt that their three views had been seriously 'baptized'.

"Are you going to name the kitten?"

"Why did I name it?"

"Because I want to keep it in your house, aren't you a guardian?"

“…… How about an imposing name for it? Caesar? Or call it Napoleon? ”

"Please! It's a female cat, okay?! ”
