The preseason is all over, and the Rockets, the Lakers and the Cavaliers are the three teams in the league to finish with a winning record, and even last year's defending champion Celtics have all rolled over once.

But this doesn't explain the problem, just like the Spurs, a team that only puts the main team to play half a quarter, the ultimate goal of the preseason is to run in the lineup for each team and help the players get back to form........

My Neighbor Totoro's performance has been good and bad, and in the face of small forwards who are still famous in the league, Totoro has always fallen into the dilemma of being completely blocked, but when facing those first, second, and even third graders, Totoro can perform exceptionally eye-catching.

However, even if Totoro played abnormally in two games, he still averaged 19+ points per game in the entire 6 playoff games, and this year's champion Rose also scored more than 20 points per game, and the performance of the Chinese has won the recognition of Rocket fans.

Now on the official website of the Rockets, it is rare to see fans post messages saying how bad Totoro is, and I usually don't hear anyone on the street discussing this deal, and even when Totoro enters and leaves the villa, other overseas Chinese living in Chinatown will also take the initiative to greet him in a friendly way, which are all positive signals.

"Hey, Totoro! Are you going back to Los Angeles to play the opening game at Staples Arena right away? ”

One day after the preseason, Totoro was lying on the leather couch watching TV, but Ivy suddenly jumped out from behind and jumped in front of Totoro.

Because she was like a female ghost with a white mask on her face, and there was no warning, the sudden appearance startled the Chinese, and she almost flew the remote control in her hand.........

"What, I'm going to go with the team tomorrow, do you have any questions?"

Resisting the urge to press the blonde sister on the couch and beat him up, Totoro replied with a bad face.

"It's nothing, Lufa and I are going back to Los Angeles once, you give me a few tickets to the game, and I will go to your game with my sister then."

Ivy was angry when she saw My Neighbor Totoro's cold attitude and wary eyes, and after snorting, she sat down with My Neighbor Totoro.

"Hold the grass, what do you want, I took the team plane to the game, it was a special plane, how could you follow me up?"

My Neighbor Totoro was stunned when he heard this, what did this blonde sister think? Even the head coach didn't dare to bring his family members to a special plane for convenience, unless his status on the Rockets team was the same as that of the little emperor in the Cavaliers, otherwise this kind of thing should not be thought of.......

As for the matter of tickets, it is simple, generally the main players in the NBA team will be allocated a few tickets for each game, which is used to let their cheering group come to cheer them on the spot, and Totoro was also allocated 4 tickets during the opening game, but because he has no relatives, two of these four have been shamelessly hung on the Internet by him, and now it is estimated that they have become dollars and flowed into his pocket.

"Hmph, it's really useless, it doesn't matter, anyway, Lufa and I are going back to Los Angeles once, we don't have any money on us, you have to buy me a plane ticket!"

Ivy said confidently, maybe the American girl doesn't know what politeness is.........

"Hey, I said I owe you? What am my obligations to help you buy a ticket? What benefits can I get from buying it for you? You haven't paid your rent this quarter? ”

My neighbor totoro was bored when he heard it, they really ate themselves, and they asked him for reimbursement for everything, could it be that he couldn't be bullied?

"Ouch, what are you doing so fiercely? Of course you don't owe us, but if you think about it, you've already helped us so much, why don't you help us a little more? Anyway, booking two flights to United isn't a lot of money for you. ”

When the blonde sister saw that the other party was angry, she didn't dare to continue to stimulate Totoro, but she reasoned with him with a pleasant face.

Yes, I have helped them so much, and it seems that I am not bad enough to help a little more, this really makes sense, and I actually made myself speechless?

"It's $500, enough for your trip back and forth between Houston and Los Angeles."

My Neighbor Totoro sighed and pulled out five Franklins from his right pocket.

"Thank you."

Ivy smiled as brightly as a flower.

"No, here are two tickets, remember to ........ in advance"

Then, when Totoro reached out and took out two crumpled tickets from the left pocket of his pants to hand them to the other party, he suddenly found that the blonde sister had already turned away humming a little song, and of course took the five Franklin cards on the table with him.......

It turns out that anything like going to the away stadium to help him support himself is all fake, and the real purpose is just to use supporting himself as an excuse to ask him for the ticket money.........

"Hold the grass, your whole family is rich and blooming!"

The anger in My Neighbor Totoro's heart can be imagined, and now the Chinese are considering whether to catch up and ask him for his money back, was he too soft-hearted just now?

"That, Mr. Totoro."

But at this time, a soft voice came from behind, and the black-haired sister Lufa didn't know when she was standing behind her.

"Are these two tickets for my sister and me to watch the game?"

"No, you don't like basketball anyway, so forget it."

My neighbor Totoro, who was in a bad mood, pulled his hand and tried to put the ticket back in his pocket, but Lufa held it down with his hand.

Small, slippery, tender, European and American women's skin has always been very rough, but Lufa's skin is surprisingly good, there are no freckles on the face that European and American women often have, not to mention, the body shape is not as big and three thick as European and American women, but it gives people a kind of Chinese girl's weak and small beauty.

"We love basketball, you don't know, when you were in Las Vegas for the Summer League, my sister and I were watching live TV at home, and this time we wanted to go live and cheer you on, so can you give us the tickets?"

The black-haired sister raised her watery eyes to look at Totoro, and the Chinese felt that the anger in her heart was instantly reduced by half.

"Now, that, since you want... Say, uh, you can take it. ”

After a long time, Totoro, who became embarrassed, was stunned for a long time before scratching his head and handing over the ticket.

"Thank you, Mr. Totoro, by the way, can I call you Mao?"

Lufa, who got the ticket, immediately narrowed his big eyes into a charming crescent moon, and he looked like a child who had just been praised by his teacher.

"You might as well call me cat, that's what it means in English."

The Chinese stared at Lufa for a few seconds, his rare old face was slightly red, and he turned his head and grabbed his sideburns and returned to the road.

In these preseasons, fans have already called him cat or dragon, of course, there are some foreign friends with better Chinese and English skills who call him Chinchilla, but the third word is too tongue-twisting, and dragon and cat have a wider audience, so the first two titles are the most marketable.

Rockets fans like to call Totoro Dragon, this word has the meaning of evil beast in the West, Rockets fans hope that Totoro can destroy the enemy as fierce as a flying dragon, of course, the most important thing is that no player in the NBA has this title, so Dragon has gradually become a unique code name for Totoro.

But for the people close to him, such as his teammates on the Rockets, most people still call him cat, for no other reason, it's really crooked Guoren's pronunciation when he pronounces the word MAO is too weird, and Totoro said that he really can't stand it.......

"Hehe, cat, that's a girl's nickname, you're so cute."

The black-haired sister laughed as expected, and my neighbor totoro said that you can laugh if you laugh, and I will get used to it if you don't get used to it after a long time.......

"Thank you for your ticket."

Lufa walked up to Totoro's side lightly, suddenly stood on tiptoe, and kissed the Chinese on the cheek.........
