Chapter 478: Next Step (10/10)
Su Mei finally believed Tang Shuai's statement.
There is no danger, Tang Shuai has also learned from this chance encounter, Su Mei obviously can't tolerate other women, he needs to think about this aspect of the problem.
The Clippers won one game at home, and the Clippers took advantage of Yu Wei to score 2-2 in Game 2.
But in the next fifth battle of Tianwang Mountain, despite the team's hard work, and even Paul's playing time increased to 35 minutes, they still lost in the end, not because they played badly, but because there was a gap in the strength of the two sides.
The first home game can be won, a large part of the reason is that Paul, the "wonder soldier", caught Donovan off guard, and when he gradually adapted, it had no effect, the most direct embodiment of which was that Paul's playing time increased to 35 minutes, but he was strictly guarded in the whole game, and he only contributed 10 points and 6 assists in 4 of 17 shots, and his performance was even worse than the first two games.
In fact, the early comeback is such a problem, and the form is difficult to guarantee, and Paul has helped the team win two games, which is already quite good.
After losing this crucial game, Tang Shuai also knew that the team was unlucky.
Without a single consumption pack, Paul has just returned from injury, and it is difficult to fill the gap in strength between the two sides.
The sixth game between the two sides was held at the Staples Center, Tang Shuai and his teammates of the Clippers worked hard, Paul's playing time surged, almost no rest for a minute in the first three quarters, the expected injury recurred, and was forced to leave the game early, Tang Shuai led the team to the last quarter alone, and he had foot cramps after the start of the fourth quarter after the transition of physical consumption, and when he got off the court, the Thunder pulled the score away, and the suspense of the game was lost.
After losing Game 6, the Clippers were eliminated 2-4 by the Thunder and stopped in the division finals.
At the last moment of the game, Tang Shuai and Paul stood up with each other and waved to the audience, which attracted a long burst of applause from the fans.
Although they lost the game, Tang Shuai and the Clippers have earned the greatest respect from the fans, and they fought to the end.
With their victory, the Thunder reached the Finals for the second time in their history, and they will face the winner between the Cavaliers and the Raptors.
Speaking of this matchup in the East, it is also a big surprise, after the Cavaliers led 2-0, most people thought that this would be a game that ended faster than the Western Conference Finals, but they didn't expect the Raptors to show their "home dragon" momentum, and they dragged the game into a tiebreaker, which made the fans stunned.
The next tie-break and the finals are about to be staged, but Tang Shuai has no time to watch, after the series with the Thunder, he booked a plane ticket back to China, go home first, and then go to the national team to report, ready for the next trip to the Rio Olympics.
That night, he was packing up his things in the villa, and Su Mei was helping him pick out clothes one by one.
Because the UCLA competition has reached a critical moment, Su Mei has no time to return to China with him this time.
"This dress is too small to do." Su Mei took a piece of clothing and gestured it on Tang Shuai's body, and then threw it back to the bed.
"I spent most of my time training when I went back, so I definitely didn't have time to wear so many clothes, so I didn't have to bring so many clothes." Tang Shuai saw that Su Mei almost turned out the entire wardrobe, and couldn't help but say.
"Who said that, you don't have to go home, if you go back in casual clothes, your parents will still think I have abused you." Su Mei directly ignored Tang Shuai's complaints, and then gestured to other clothes.
Tang Shuai shook his head helplessly, but when he saw Su Mei so busy that his forehead was sweating, his heart was sweet, in the end, Su Mei still hoped that he would have less trouble after returning to China.
Just as he was looking at Su Mei, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang, he took it out and looked at it, it was Duffy who called, and then picked it up: "James, why are you calling me so late?" ”
"Don, Dave doesn't agree with you playing for your country." As soon as the phone was connected, Duffy's somewhat speechless voice was heard.
"What, Dave doesn't agree with me playing for my country?" Tang Shuai frowned, "Isn't the team already allowed it?" ”
NBA players want to play for the country, in addition to personal wishes, the team's attitude is also a very critical part, if the team does not allow it, the player will not be able to play for the country, but Tang Shuai played in the national team, Duffy has already communicated with the management and got permission, how can things change when it comes to departure?
"Yes, the team has allowed it, but Dave doesn't know what to think, saying that it is easy to get injured in the national team, and he also moved out the example of Yao, and the senior management also hesitated." Duffy explained.
"What the hell does Dave want to do?!" Tang Shuai was upset all of a sudden, Dave's reason was normal, but if he really had this concern, then he should have raised this concern as early as when Duffy communicated, not at this time, when he was going to fly to China tomorrow.
"Actually, I don't know what he wants to do, I will communicate with the management again, after all, they have agreed to this before, if they really do this, I will definitely seriously protest, after all, you have promised the national team, which will cause great damage to your reputation." Duffy still understands public relations very well, and said directly.
"Well, you as soon as possible, if you don't get a reply tomorrow, I'm still leaving." Tang Shuai made his attitude clear, just like Duffy said, he had promised Gong Luming, then he would definitely go to the national team, if he really regretted it, it would not only be a matter of loss of his reputation, it would be tantamount to his direct dishonesty.
Tang Shuai put down the phone, and Su Mei said with concern: "Don't worry, I believe that the management of the Clippers will not do such a thing." ”
Su Mei sat on the bed a little helplessly, the management of the Clippers is normal, but Dave Wall is not easy to say, the trade deadline has shown that he is not a very reasonable person, if he really insists on not letting him go back in the end, he and the team will be in trouble at that time.
"Okay, don't bother, I'll rub your shoulders." Su Mei said as she climbed onto Tang Shuai's body and knelt down to help him press his shoulders.
A comfortable feeling came, and Zhu Shan's figure suddenly appeared unconsciously in his mind, remembering the last massage, and he really wanted to experience the comfortable feeling again.
But this thought was quickly shaken off by him, he was really thinking about something.
"Does it have a headache?" Su Mei asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay, you just press it like this, it's very comfortable." Tang Shuai said a little sneeringly.
About half an hour later, Duffy's phone call came again.
"Don, it's done." As soon as the phone was connected, Duffy's first sentence said the most crucial thing.
Tang Shuai breathed a sigh of relief, Duffy's work efficiency was still very reliable, and the problem was solved in half an hour.
"But ......," Duffy suddenly changed his mind on the phone.
"You say." Hearing that Duffy's tone changed, he immediately asked.
"Dave still stood by his opinion, he had a lot of say in management, and the end result was that the team agreed to the original request, but let us take the insurance ourselves." Duffy finished his sentence in one go.
"Insurance?" Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment.
Players are insured, and when playing in the NBA, these details will be included in the contract, but like other games in the offseason, additional insurance is required, and under normal circumstances, the team will be responsible for this part, after all, the amount is not too large.
But this move shows that the management does not support their participation in the Olympics, and to put it more seriously, if the injury is more serious, it is not impossible for the team to cut him.
"Damn it!" Tang Shuai cursed, this Wall really doesn't talk about any affection, so he just led the team to the Western Conference Finals!
"The decision is yours, I still recommend buying insurance yourself, after all, the amount is not large, and our sponsors will also pay for injuries, of course, provided that you prevent injuries as much as possible." Duffy analyzed.
Tang Shuai was silent for a while, and finally said: "Just do what you say, let's not talk about the next games, since I have agreed to the national team competition this time, I must go, this is about credibility." ”
"Okay, I'll do it before you go." Duffy affirmed.
After Tang Shuai said "um", he hung up the phone.
"Don't bother, go to bed early, I'm almost ready for my clothes." Su Mei said.
Tang Shuai nodded, looked up at Su Mei, if you really calculate, it will take at least a few months to return to China this time, and he and Su Mei will not be able to see each other for a long time.
"What's wrong? What's on my face? Su Mei looked at Tang Shuai suspiciously.
"Stand still, there are mosquitoes!" Tang Shuai shouted.
Su Mei stood in place for a moment, her face turning pale.
Tang Shuai's ass sharded, and then the rebound force of the bed stood up, and he reached out to slap it.
Su Mei closed her eyes suddenly.
But what awaited him was not a slap, but a deep kiss.
She immediately knew that Tang Shuai was lying to herself, but soon, she let out a coquettish pant in Tang Shuai's upper and lower hands.
……
On May 26, U.S. time, Tang Shuai got on the plane back to China alone, and Duffy needed to come in a few days because he had to deal with some formalities.
It was also planned, he was going to go home first, so Duffy only had to go home before he went to report for the national team.
got on the plane, looking at the scenery outside the window, he suddenly felt some emotion in his heart, from April last year to the United States, to the present to return to China, unconsciously more than a year has passed, thinking about returning home, he can't help but feel excited.
"Are you Tang Shuai?" He was looking out the window when suddenly an unsure voice asked him.
Tang Shuai turned around when he heard the voice, and then he saw a woman he didn't know, wearing light makeup, and she looked good, but the pair of twin peaks on her chest were quite spectacular.
"You are?" Tang Shuai asked uncertainly.
"I'm Zhang Qige." The woman said excitedly.
