It seems that this training camp is really for high school students like me! Hougist looked at the screen and immediately had the right decision. R.C. Buford and Mr. Popovich are really scheming! It's no wonder that this team has been thriving since these two joined the Spurs! Now there is even such a saying that there are three things that cannot be avoided in life - death, taxes, and 50 wins for the Spurs.

On the plane, Mr. Vincent was still studying the video of the game seriously, Hougist was bored, wanted to sleep and couldn't sleep, so he could only fiddle with his mobile phone, I don't know how long later, Mr. Vincent suddenly accosted him: "Are you coming to San Antonio for the first time?" ”

Hougist subconsciously shook his head, and turned his head to see that Mr. Vincent had put away his computer and notebook at some point. "Didn't you watch the video?"

"I've got the answer I wanted. How much do you know about San Antonio? Would you like me to introduce you? ”

"Good! I don't know anything about the Holy City except for the Spurs! Please tell me about it! Hougist leaned over with interest, ready to listen intently.

"San Antonio is the second-largest city in Texas and the seventh-most populous city in the United States. In the early days, it was the Indian settlement of the Tejas tribe, after Columbus discovered the Americas, European countries continued to send people to explore the Americas, grabbing territory, until the end of the 17th century, Spanish explorers and missionaries first discovered this place, the day they arrived here coincided with the traditional European religious festival of St. Anthonyof Padua (St. AnthonyofPadua), so they named this place after the sages. In order to defend against the attacks of the French who colonized the Mississippi River Valley, the Spaniards sent troops from occupied Mexico to establish a diocese in the San Antonio River Valley, which was responsible for proselytizing and using it as a military base. At the beginning of the 19th century, the famous Alamo Cavalry Regiment founded by Spain in the city of Alamo de Pallas, Mexico, took over the garrison, and the base has been named after Alamo ever since. Soon after, Mexico launched a war of independence and occupied San Antonio, but because San Antonio was too far away from the Mexican hinterland to control, the Mexican government opened up immigration in the hope of increasing its population and consolidating its dominance. In 1836, Texas declared independence, established the famous "Lone Star Republic", and occupied the Alamo Fortress. The great dictator of Mexico, Sant'Anna, was furious and decided to personally lead his army to suppress it, marching 360 miles in 30 days. The military commander of the Republic of Texas and former Governor of Tennessee, Sam Brown. Unwilling to confront the enemy, Houston decided to abandon Alamo Fortress, but 26-year-old Private William Brown. Taravis, 40-year-old James. Colonel Bowie and the 50-year-old legendary explorer David Bowie. Unwilling to abandon the people of the Alamo Fortress, Clot and 200 volunteers decided to hold on to the fortress. The volunteers held out for 13 days under the command of the three men, and finally they were outnumbered and the city was lost. The brutal dictator slaughtered all of Alamo's adult males. Three weeks later, the regrouped Texas army shouted the slogan 'Remember the Alamo,' and in Sam. Houston's leadership broke the Mexican army and captured the great dictator Santa Anna in one fell swoop! This was the most famous battle of the Alamo in American history, and the Republic of Texas retained its independence in 1845 when it joined the United States of America. To this day, the Battle of the Alamo is still regarded as a myth in the history of our army, a symbol of courage and sacrifice under free will! ”

Mr. Vincent explains the history of San Antonio in one breath, and Hougist listens to it with great interest, and history is so fascinating.

Vincent asked the flight attendant for a glass of ice water, moistened his throat, and continued: "For these historical reasons, San Antonio is now the city with the highest Hispanic population in the United States, and there are hundreds of stone churches, military forts, and homes built in the 18th century. Become an attractive attraction. As a result, the city is rich in exoticism and culture. The cultural diversity of the city is fascinating, with the cultural heritage of Spain and the ethnic color of Mexico always striking, as well as the traditional culture of the American Indians. San Antonio is also known for its thriving, green riverside promenade. Along the San Antonio River, the San Antonio River is lined with greenery and lined with delicious restaurants, hotels, roadside cafes, souvenir shops, theaters, museums and other buildings. ”

After listening to Mr. Vincent's introduction, a beautiful picture appeared in front of Hoggist's eyes, such a place is very suitable for two people who love each other to live together! "Mr. Vincent, listening to your descriptions so vividly, it seems that you are also a person who loves life and has a temperament!" ”

Mr. Vincent was still talking eloquently, but his eyes darkened when he heard Haugist's words. After a while, he replied lightly: "Actually, you have also seen that I am usually a rather boring person, except for eating and sleeping is work." My life seems boring to others. ”

"But the explanation just now that people who don't have life will never be able to say it, and even if they read it out according to the lines, they won't be as affectionate as you!" Hogist was a little confused.

"That's what my wife tells me a lot." Mr. Vincent smiled reluctantly, but two lines of tears unconsciously slid down his cheeks.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you ......" Hougist saw that Mr. Vincent, who had always been unsmiling, was actually smiling and crying, showing two expressions at the same time, thinking that he must have touched Mr. Vincent's sadness, and hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay, those who don't know are not guilty, do you want to hear my story?" Mr. Vincent suddenly became interested in the conversation, and took the initiative to ask about Hogist.

"Of course I'd like to hear what you're going to say!"

"All I know about San Antonio comes from my wife, a San Antonio native, we met in college, and she's the most beautiful girl I've ever met, full of sunshine and as passionate as summer in the Holy City. Her name is as beautiful as she is, Miranda, what an enchanting name! We were classmates at Syracuse University and went to New York together after graduation, I got a good paying job at the New York Knicks, and Miranda also established herself in the New York fashion industry. All of this should have been the beginning of a good story, but the story developed beyond my expectations. It was our seventh year in New York, and I was already approaching the top of Knicks management, taking out a loan to buy a beautiful high-rise apartment in Manhattan, and I was about to enter high society, but Miranda kept talking to me about the sunshine and rivers of my hometown and wanted to settle back in San Antonio. At this point, Mr. Vincent's tears could no longer be controlled, and poured out like a tidal wave.

Haugist handed over a tissue, Mr. Vincent took it and wiped his tears, and choked up with a trembling voice: "Thank you, I lost my temper!" But if I had cared more about her, if I had seen the illusory money, fame, and status earlier, if I had listened to her and returned to San Antonio with her sooner, maybe I wouldn't have lost her. ”

"Your wife, she?"

She told me on and off for a year, and I couldn't resist her, so I agreed to go back with her and take a vacation first, but during that time the team was planning to get Stephen, the son of New York, through a big deal. Marbury, I was so busy that I couldn't take time off for a while, and when the deal was made, I found that Miranda was getting weaker and weaker day by day, and I was going to take her to the hospital for a check-up, but she said that she just had a cold, and it would be natural to return to San Antonio to bask in the sun. I didn't even suspect it, and when I packed my luggage and bought my ticket to the airport, Miranda fainted at the boarding gate. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance, and I learned that she had acute leukemia and that her days were numbered. I tried everything I could, but in the end I couldn't save her life. And my poor Miranda was never able to return to San Antonio until she died. ”

When Hoggist heard this, his mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and if he didn't cherish the happiness in front of him, he could disappear without a trace at any time. At that time, I am afraid that I will regret it like Mr. Vincent.

"When my wife died, I was disheartened, sold my apartment in Manhattan, quit my job at the Knicks, and returned to Miranda's hometown of San Antonio. San Antonio was as beautiful as Miranda had said, and as I lay on the bench in Miranda's backyard basking in the sun, my mood suddenly became ethereal, and I felt that the Holy City was my soul's home. While sorting through the relics, I found a letter from Miranda, who knew that her illness was incurable, and wanted to return to her hometown in her lifetime. But even if she doesn't come back, she doesn't regret it, because she has found the love of her life, and she has no regrets in life. For the first time in many years, the pain in Mr. Vincent's heart was relieved.

"Miranda's favorite holy city is my new hometown, I easily got this scouting job with the Spurs with my experience working with the Knicks, only work can forget the pain of losing my wife, but I can tell you today, my heart is more peaceful." Mr. Vincent said calmly.

"Mr. Vincent, although I don't know why you are willing to confide in me, I hope you can see a little bit that life goes on, and Miranda does not want you to live this life alone and decadently." Hoggist didn't know how to persuade him, after all, he was just a child, and it was too strange to persuade adults.

"Just call me Henry in the future, I watched your game video in the past two days, and found that my evaluation of you on the day of the final was not accurate, you are basically an excellent player with both offensive and defensive skills, and I also see the sacrifices you have made for your fresh graduates, which is enough to show that you are a trustworthy leader. I confide in you the pain in my heart, and I feel that the pain I have borne over the years has been reduced by half, and I really have to thank you. You're going to be a superstar in the league, and I really hope you join the Spurs family. ”

"Thank you for your trust and affirmation, in fact, Spurs are indeed the team that most players want to play for, including me, of course. Hopefully we'll be able to work together in the future, but seriously, you really should think about Jeremy Lin! Seeing that Mr. Vincent was in a better mood, Haugist's chatterbox was opened.

By the time they got off the plane, Henry and Hougist had become friends, and the two had a good conversation, and after checking in to the camp, Henry planned to take Haugist to Miranda's favorite restaurant as a child on the San Antonio River. But as he was on the way out, Henry was stopped by his colleague Miss Raz.

"Mr. Vincent, wait a minute!"

"What's the matter? Miss Raz. ”

"Did you just come back with a player?" Miss Raz asked.

"yes, I brought Mr. Five Pairs from Nevada." Henry said proudly.

"I just brought one who was able to dunk and Vince. Carter is comparable to a child report, but I still have some business to attend to in the afternoon, and I can't take him on a tour, can you please help me take him to visit the Holy City? It's not for nothing! Dinner I'm please! Miss Raz looked at Henry with a smile.

"No problem, it's a trivial matter, you can call him!" Henry said.

"Zach! Zach come over here! Miss Raz rushed not far away to a man of the same height as Howist, and a skin that was whiter than Stephen. Curry and Blake. Griffin, but from the quality of his hair, he could still tell that it was a black high school student.

The high school student stepped forward and greeted everyone politely, "Hello everyone, my name is Zack. LaVine, a sophomore in high school, is from Purcell High School in Washington, D.C. ”
