Chapter 264: Minotaur Coffee Is So Delicious!

After several sleepless nights in Los Angeles, the Suns players flew back to Phoenix on the 28th local time and arrived at the usual training arena on time in the afternoon.

Of course, don't get me wrong, they don't want to try their skills again, and although there is still one last kick to be kicked out of the playoffs, everyone knows that this team has drawn a crippled end except for those Suns fans who are crazy enough to make a fool of themselves, and the previous question mark has been wiped clean in the last game.

Now the Suns are here just to get their cars back.

Before heading to Los Angeles, they met at the stadium in their own car before taking a bus to the airport.

The Lakers weren't much slower than their hosts, with their flight only one flight late to the Suns, and they had already checked into the Phoenix hotel that same night, where they watched other teams play on their opponent's turf.

Zhang Qi's spare phone received a call from the young lady Shanni the day before the game, who wanted to conduct an interview for him.

This kind of good thing, how can you agree to it with a phone call, of course, you have to pay a certain price!

In the playoffs, Zhang Wei only accepted interviews with three media outlets for the time being - "Los Angeles Times", "CCTV Film Crew", and "Dragonborn News Network", and even "Associated Press" and "ESPN" did not get the opportunity to be interviewed.

So, the koala baby yawned into the phone, and then said that he was very busy and tired, and he didn't have time for an interview all day.

Miss Channie immediately said that she could accommodate our Los Angeles hero in terms of time, and if it didn't work during the day, she could go back at night, it didn't matter how late it was.

That's the naked response, or the deal!

In fact, simply doing an interview for Zhang Fu will not make her famous or rich overnight, but her boss will know the meaning of this place and will also know the ulterior relationship here.

This is also obvious, if there is no unspeakable behind-the-scenes deals, how can a small trainee reporter interview Zhang Mao, a star that many big-name media people can't see?

Her boss must have thought that Xiao Heimei can continue to get first-hand news by using this relationship, and promotion is the inevitable result, even if she uses this capital to jump to big media, at least "ESPN" will definitely hire such a reporter who can interview Zhang Mao with a high salary.

The time arranged by Zhang Yi for Xiao Heimei is 10 o'clock in the evening, and the location is in the hotel room.

Interviewing in a hotel room in the middle of the night?

Does anyone believe this?

So Miss Shanni knows very well what she wants to do after the interview.

However, when it was time to make the appointment, Zhang Wei informed Shanny on the phone that she was watching the game with her teammates, and she would have to wait for a while before she could be interviewed, so she could go to the room and wait first.

This can be understood why Zhang Qiu keeps asking for a separate room in away games.

This is really necessary, so that he won't live with his teammates, otherwise this kind of thing can't be done?

Channie waited in Zhang Mao's room for two hours, but she was also able to let go, not only did she wear revealing clothes, but her makeup was also dressed in a glamorous direction, and she even brought three different models of chewing gum in her handbag.

Of course, she didn't forget to secretly put a few holes in it, and she didn't have any good intentions in her heart.

Zhang Wei said that this trick is almost the same to deceive the little kid, how could he use the chewing gum prepared for him by others?

This kind of 419, he won't suffer such a big loss.

Don't look at his family's big business, but if there are suddenly three or five or seven or eight illegitimate children, it will be an incomparably headache.

After Zhang Qian returned to the room, he immediately said that he was a little tired today, and tomorrow was the Lakers' game, so it was better to do this interview another day.

He didn't want to pay the bills, but to receive the goods first.

There is no such thing as paying money with one hand and delivering with the other, otherwise after the interview, people will raise their butts and want to leave, can he still use it strongly?

Of course, if he pulls out the cone and doesn't recognize people, Miss Shanni can only recognize it.

There's no way, so let's deliver it first.

The real purpose in her heart is those holes, once she succeeds in the move, she really doesn't have to worry about lying down for the rest of her life.

- Portland, in a nightclub.

O'Neal will be having fun in a nightclub with his teammates, and although he hasn't been to a nightclub since the end of the regular season, now that the Clippers have swept the Trail Blazers, they have at least three or four days of rest, so it's not too much to go in style at this moment.

It's just that after coming to the nightclub, O'Neill suddenly felt a burst of restlessness, followed by a feeling of flesh pain, a bit like the feeling of being robbed of his girlfriend in college.

"Strange, why do you feel this way?"

O'Neill was puzzled, holding a green cocktail in his hand that he didn't know who had made for him, a naughty cherry floating on the surface of the wine, and a realistic embellishment in the shape of a green hat.

"Good wine, kind of fun!"

O'Neill still knows how to play, picked up this hat made of unknown ingredients, put it on his big bald head, and after taking a sip hard, he found that the wine was inexplicably delicious, and immediately shouted: "Good wine, another glass!" By the way, give each of them a drink, I'll please! ”

"Forget it, I'm not of legal drinking age!"

Kobe Bryant didn't give face, but he had a good reason.

"It's okay, the three cups are mine, don't grab it from me!"

O'Neill drank nearly half of the wine in one gulp, and the inexplicable feeling in his heart was finally less, and then he waved his palm and smiled, not caring at all about his little brother's unappreciation.

The next day, the camera was pulled to Phoenix City after 10,000 words.

Zhang Yu kept her promise here, woke up the fainted black girl early the next morning, and agreed to use a tape recorder to conduct an interview in order to apologize for her excessive strength yesterday.

Miss Channie woke up with a sore body, but she was not dissatisfied, but unfortunately her purpose was not achieved.

In fact, the last time she didn't ask for an interview, if Zhang Qian was willing to make an appointment, she had already agreed at that time.

What's more, she also has an ulterior motive in her heart, otherwise why would she do anything with chewing gum?

She knows very well that as long as she can give Zhang Qi an illegitimate child, she will not have to struggle again in this life.

This kind of good deed, the world doesn't know how many women want to do, and she is no exception.

It's a pity that she underestimated the size of Zhang Qi's cylinder, and the three models she prepared yesterday were all small, which caused a burst of ridicule from the koala baby!

Now, Miss Channie, who is naked, can only enter the working state, but fortunately she still has a plan B.

Miss Shanni first asked, "Can you recall the first time you were looked at differently by others?" ”

Zhang Qi didn't think about it and quickly replied: "I always feel this way, because I am taller and bigger than everyone else!" He said this in a naked scene, causing the young lady's face to turn red. Sometimes, people make fun of me about this too, so I have to learn to show my strength. When I was a child, I had a childish feeling that when you became unreasonable, people would be afraid of you. So when I first started playing basketball, I was like a villain so that other people would avoid me. Until now, my style of play has been influenced by this idea. ”

"I know that people of color often experience racism, especially in childhood, do you have bad memories at that stage?"

Of course, there are many such memories. At that time, I would go and beat up the guys who had bad mouths, and it always got me in trouble. Zhang Qian didn't shy away from it at all, "But later, such cases became less and less, after all, there are not many people who have the courage to laugh at someone who is more handsome, smarter, and stronger than you." This also made me understand a truth, no matter what field you are in, if you want to avoid being discriminated against, the only way to make yourself stronger! It's better to be ashamed of those fools, and then they'll disappear from you. ”

Miss Channie has a better impression of Zhang Qi now, although "only the strong can conquer women" are pretending to be forced, but at least no one likes cowardly people, and men who are physically and mentally strong can indeed attract the favor of the opposite sex.

"For two years, the opponents on the pitch have tried to stop you, but you have gradually become the king of the number three position, how can you become the most dominant player?"

"I'm the most dominant player because I do everything that only I can do – I can take my shot from beyond the three-point line and make them not let their guard down on me. I can also break through, they can't block my impact, my breakthrough will make them cry and make them have to make a yin move...... But if you ask me how I can do it, all I can tell you is that there are good players everywhere in the league, but there is only one like me, and I will change this league. “

"If you were against your other self, what would you do to defeat him?"

"I thought about it, but in the end it was too hard to beat me, and it turned out that even I couldn't defend myself, and no one could guard the Lakers' No. 14. I, like this cup of minotaur coffee, come and try it, it's unbelievably delicious. But I'll tell you: there's very little coffee that really tastes good. On the contrary, those bad ones are everywhere, too many. Zhang Qi was still not very modest in front of the young lady, and said a little unashamedly, "What I want to say is that there is only one Lyon in the world, and it is difficult for you to find another player similar to me." When I found a way to restrain myself, it was also time for me to leave the court. I had at least six or eight championship rings on my hand at that time. You can write this down: Lyon's basketball is like minotaur coffee: no one knows why it's so delicious! And on Lyon's side there are so many bad coffees, like Starbucks's, or even worse! ”

Miss Shannie couldn't help laughing, I really don't know if the people at Starbucks will be angry and sue him for slander when they hear this interview?

"I continue to ask, does it make you unhappy that you are in a state of being watched all the time?"

"No, I like to bring joy to everyone. Moreover, I never wanted to hide like a mouse, and that tranquility was not for me. If I wanted to be someone else, like my father, then I wouldn't have chosen basketball, I wouldn't have given up going to Harvard, I would have been learning how to manage a company, I would have learned IT...... But I didn't do it because I knew what I liked and I was happy with my role now. ”

"A lot of Los Angeles fans are wondering, would you consider becoming a Hollywood star in the movie capital? I know that there are a lot of studios out there that want to ask you to star in basketball movies. ”

"Of course, I don't resist this invitation. But it had to be after my playing career, or after I helped the Lakers win three straight championships, and then I could make a cameo appearance in a movie one summer. ”

"If you were away from basketball one day, what kind of memories would you want others to keep for you?"

"It's a distant question, strictly speaking, I'm still a rookie, so ask it again in 10 years, I can't say anything now."

"Okay, so when are you going to retire?"

"That's the question, I can answer you, when you don't see me in the top five of the MVP selection every year...... When I couldn't even make it to the best second team...... That's when I retired. ”

Miss Shanni asked here, and saw Zhang Yu signaling that she should end the interview as soon as possible, and could only ask a few last questions.

"Lately, people have started talking about your next contract, is it possible for you to leave the Lakers? What will the future determine where you will stay?"

"It's a bit early, but I can answer you, first of all: money is never an issue for me." Speaking of this, Zhang Zhu and the young lady couldn't help laughing, "What can I say, the combined market value of the 29 teams in the league is not as good as that of the Dragonborn Company, even Michael's annual salary of 30 million is only an 8-digit number for me." So, what do you think I'm going to care about? Of course it's an honor, I care if it's a team that makes me have fun playing. To put it mildly, the NBA is a game for me. But I'm a 'play to win' person, and if anyone or anything causes me trouble in this regard, it has to be properly resolved, or I will figure it out myself. ”

"Last question, will Dragonborn buy an NBA team?"

"This is a question in the business arena, and I can't answer you exactly. However, the team that Dragonborn wants to buy will probably not be sold so easily, and we will not spend several times the price to buy a team for interest, so let it be. ”

Zhang Wei took the initiative to end the interview here, and once 419 can get so many questions, Miss Channie should be able to make a difference.

However, in retrospect, he was still not so interested in the black lady, especially after the freshness of last night, he was sure that he would not keep close contact with this young lady, and it was likely that this would only happen once.

Of course, if he can meet a more beautiful black lady in the future, he doesn't mind keeping in close contact, such as a black pearl like Harry Berry, he would love to receive it in the palace.

After Miss Shanni left with unnatural steps, Zhang Fu and the team adapted to the field in the afternoon, and had a two-hour shooting warm-up, and then it was time to prepare for the evening game, and the little sister's affairs would not stay in his mind for long.

Today, there are four more playoff games around the league, and two of them are facing the fate of being eliminated, such as the Suns, who are the pitiful creatures who are seen as dead and alive.

In the afternoon, the Magic left the playoff stage first.

Hardaway tried his best, but he couldn't deal a substantial blow to the Heat, but he didn't have a way.

O'Neill watched the game in a strange mood, half happy, half sad.

But he swore to God that he had no sympathy for magic or regret for it. He can't wait for the magic to lose thirty or forty points in every game, so the inexplicable sadness in his heart is really fucking inexplicable!

The Magic became the fifth team to go out of the game, and the second game of the day was the Rockets vs. the SuperSonics, and the two teams will have to fight for a while before they can separate the two.

The Rockets came to the road, and the Big Three finally had a dumb fire.

In the first two games, the Rockets not only played well in the Big Three, but also played above average level as role players, which made many people ignore the order of the two.

As soon as Barkley was in a slump, the output of the Rockets was immediately insufficient, and there was a bucket effect with only two old bastards' lineups, and the benches would only activate stealth skills at such times, counting on them to fill Barkley's gaps, which was obviously impossible, these guys were just a group of players who could only play downwind, and they would fall apart as soon as the headwind blew.

"Is it difficult, whoever is at home is awesome?"

As soon as Zhang saw the performance of the Rockets and the home court, he knew that the two teams would have to play Game 5 to distinguish between them.

After the game between the Rockets and the SuperSonics, it was the third game between the Lakers and the Suns, and it was also the least suspenseful game of the day.

How small is that?

Even though the Lakers shot only 38% from the field in this game, it didn't prevent them from winning, and it was a double-digit victory!

In the first half, the two teams only scored a total of 70 points, which was also the lowest half-court scoring record for Zhang Fu's career.

The Lakers scored just 38 points in the first half, which was not as good as the score in the first quarter of Game 2.

The Lakers players came to the away court, and they felt very cold, and Zhang Mao's 10 points were the highest scores of the two teams in the first half.

The Suns players felt the same bad hand today, but it wasn't bad as soon as they came up, but they became more and more iron and bad under the Lakers' defense.

The Lakers opened the day with a 10-2 run, but after a timeout, they managed to keep the Suns' shooting percentage all the way down with defense, and finally only 34% shooting in the third quarter.

That's the key to the Lakers' low shooting percentage to still lead and win the game.

The midway point of the third quarter was the turning point of the game, as the Lakers once again seized on the Suns' weak point in rebounding protection, hitting a 10-0 attack wave with four frontcourt rebounds in five minutes to take away the poor Phoenix people in one fell swoop.

The final score was 82-68, and the Lakers managed to reduce the opponent's scoring and efficiency to a lower than their own when they didn't feel good, which was actually the key to victory, and the frontcourt rebounds were just embellishments.

Zhang Wei didn't score much today, only 21 points, but had 18 rebounds, 6 assists, 6 steals and 3 blocks.

This statistic can also reveal what kind of game the Lakers played, and after the game, Koala Baby said disapprovingly about his own shooting rate of less than 40%: "I have the impression that when the shooting percentage is less than 40%, we have won the same game, and more than once." ”
