――――――――――――――――――

On March 12, US time, after a day of high-intensity training, Tang Shuai dragged his tired body back to the villa.

Su Mei hadn't come back yet, he was lying on the bed and was about to rest, but before he could sleep, he received an email from Duffy.

When he opened the email and saw the contents inside, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, and then he muttered, "Interesting." ”

Duffy sent him the grouping for the Rio Olympics.

On this day, FIBA held a draw ceremony for Olympic basketball in Switzerland, and this list can be said to be hot.

In this list, the Chinese team and the United States team are in Group A, which means that Tang Shuai will play against these All-Star players in Rio in addition to the NBA, and this is not an all-star showmanship, but a real game.

After Yao Ming's retirement, the national team's performance in the international arena has been unsatisfactory, and in recent years, it has almost lost its qualification for the Olympic Games.

When Tang Shuai read the email, he paid extra attention to several other opponents in Group A. Venezuela, the champion of the Americas competition, and Australia, the champion of Oceania. There are also two teams that lost the qualifying round, and such a group is definitely not a good group for the Chinese team.

But as soon as the idea came out. He followed with a wry smile, with the current strength of the national team, it is impossible to be good in any group, he can't change the strength of other people, what he can do is to improve his strength as much as possible, only in this way can there be a glimmer of opportunity.

Rio's Olympic grouping was just a minor episode, and after that, the NBA regular season continued. Some teams that missed the playoffs gave up the season and began to focus on training newcomers, such as teams like the Lakers, Russell, who was originally underestimated, also had an outstanding performance, cutting 30+ in a row, which is a feeling of being a late bloomer.

"Don, the Tangilo next door is starting to break out, do you want to get more points, don't be robbed of the limelight." The day ends with a break from training. Brewer talked about it.

"If I have the chance, I will." Tang Shuai smiled and said, the Lakers have completely missed the playoffs before they start training newcomers, and the situation of the Clippers is completely different.

'You've got to break out a few games, it's almost the end of the season. It's time to pick the best rookie too, you can't lose to the guy in Minnesota, even though that guy is really perverted. Brewer added.

The Downs are excellent. There had been good performances before the All-Star break, and it went one step further after the All-Star break. Stable performance at 20+10, and also staged a stunner. What Okafor, what Porzingis was thrown away by him, if it weren't for the existence of Tang Shuai, this best rookie would have been decided a long time ago.

"Hey, guys, stop talking about that, there's something big going on!" At that moment, Smith suddenly shouted, slapped his thigh and jumped up from his seat.

"Damn, you're scary, my little heart isn't scared!" Brewer was chatting with Tang Shuai so intently, and he was really a little frightened this time.

Paul and the others also looked at Smith suspiciously, and said that just after training is the most tiring time for people, why is this Smith not like it at all?

"It's really a big deal, you guys hurry up and read the headlines on your mobile phones, damn, this kind of thing can happen, what the hell!" Smith completely ignored Brewer's reaction and continued to curse.

Tang Shuai and Brewer glanced at each other, and both took out their mobile phones in confusion.

Hardly anything, open the sports channel, and the first message is particularly eye-catching.

Russell videogate.

Russell?

Tang Shuai looked puzzled, this Brewer was still saying that his performance was high a second ago, how could something happen in the blink of an eye.

He then continued to read the specific report.

Russell secretly filmed the chat with Nick Young, and in the video, Russell took the initiative to ask about Young's cheating, and "fishing" generally asked the truth.

Russell asks in the video, "You're 30 and she's 19?" (referring to Nick Young's cheating partner), what about Ambok Rose? Nick Young said, "No, she (Rose) knows my (fiancée)." Then Russell suddenly said, "I'm glad you said that to the camera." Yang then looked surprised and said, "What? Apparently, Yang didn't know he was being filmed, and Russell immediately ended the shooting.

Russell and Young are friends, which is known to most people in the league, and it is certain that the video was leaked by a third party, but it has now been posted on gossip sites.

This is a serious problem, although NBA players stealing is more or less a common thing, but this is completely different when put in the media spotlight, especially Yang Gang's engagement to his star girlfriend Iggy Azali.

In this way, things get extremely serious.

"Damn, this kid is crazy, he's asking for trouble!" Brewer couldn't help but curse after reading it.

"Why? Why? Why make a video like this? At this time, Green used three whys in a row, compared to time exposure, the purpose of recording this video is really confusing.

"Maybe it's just for fun." Paul spoke at this point.

"Fun? This is really going to kill his good brother. Jordan Jr. said with an unhappy face that Nick Young had a brief time with the Clippers in 12 years, and the two had a good relationship at that time.

"That's the price of youth." Ismael Smith said with a wry smile.

Tang Shuai didn't say anything at this time, to say that although Russell's approach was very naïve, Yang still went to steal at such a critical moment. It's a bit unreasonable, and then I think about the clouds and rain with Gomez. And Su Mei's attitude towards her mother this time, he suddenly felt extremely guilty in his heart.

"Alright. Guys, that's all for this topic first, go back early and rest, there's a game tomorrow. Pierce said as he got up at this point.

Pierce spoke, and the others didn't continue the discussion, grabbed their bags and followed them out of the locker room.

Tang Shuai was walking out when he suddenly met Billups.

"Tang, I heard that you are still practicing during this time, adjust it appropriately. Training is a good thing, but the team has trained enough during this time, don't train yourself. Billups pulled him along.

Tang Shuai nodded, Billups's words woke him up at once, he felt some abnormal reactions in his muscles when he practiced in the past few days, and he didn't pay much attention to it.

'You're a player with a lot of potential, and I'd suggest you go back and find a personal trainer, it's good for you.' Billups continued.

Personal trainer?

As soon as Tang Shuai heard this word, he quickly thought of Prokopio who had helped him increase his height. It's about improving the ability of the packaging system, but it's not mentioned in terms of injury prevention, and it's really important for him to invest in it.

"I will, Coach." Tang Shuai said gratefully.

"Hmm. Go back early and rest early. Billups smiled and patted him on the shoulder and left.

Tang Shuai glanced back at Billups' back, and then continued to walk out.

He's the kind of guy who thinks about it. As soon as he left the gym, he took out his phone and prepared to ask Duffy to contact Procopio about it. But this phone has just been picked up, and it hasn't been hit yet. Instead, it rang on its own.

The caller ID is Nahura.

Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment when he saw this name, since the last time he introduced him to Gong Luming, the two of them have rarely been in contact, but they didn't expect to call again at this time.

"Don, you won't be alone in the NBA next season." As soon as the phone was connected, Nahura's slightly excited voice was heard.

"Edurado, what did you say?" Tang Shuai was stunned by Nahula's sudden words.

"Do you know Zhou Qi? That is the hopeful star of the Chinese team. Nahura followed.

"Zhou Qi?" As soon as he heard this name, Tang Shuai immediately understood what Nahura was talking about, Zhou Qi was coming to participate in the draft?

"yes, he's coming to Dallas in two days to train." Nahura couldn't hide her excitement and said.

"He's going to this year's draft?" Tang Shuai asked.

"This hasn't been decided yet, and I don't know the specifics, but it's very likely according to the current trend." Nahura followed.

Is it just possible? It's just undecided.

He continued, "Well, if there's anything I can do to help, you can tell me directly." ”

"Okay, okay, then I won't bother you." Nahura said and hung up.

Putting down the phone, Tang Shuai couldn't help but fall into a burst of thought.

Zhou Qi will choose to try out in Dallas, Nahura is so excited, the Mavericks must have some involvement, maybe the Mavericks wanted to select him last year but didn't make the trip, and now I see him shine and want to find Zhou Qi as a replacement, but the Mavericks don't have a first-round pick this year, and if he is selected by Dallas in the second round, it won't necessarily be a good thing.

But in any case, if Zhou Qi participates in the draft, it will definitely be a good thing for Chinese basketball.

Thinking of this, Tang Shuai quickly called Duffy, first, to ask him to discuss with Prokopio about doing his personal training part-time, and on the other hand, to ask him to try to contact Zhou Qi to see if it was possible to sign Zhou Qi directly.

Duffy's draft operation ability has been proven to be very reliable when Tang Shuai ran for the election, and if he operates, although there is no guarantee of future development, it can at least give Zhou Qi a good start in his career.

After explaining these two things, he was done, and then drove back to the villa.

The next day, after a half-day of training, Tang Shuai and his teammates then boarded a plane to Memphis, and this away game was also the last meeting between the two teams in the regular season.

Sitting on the plane, Tang Shuai's emotions seemed very excited, and the current Memphis means a little different to him than before, not because of a rare wave of injuries in the history of the Grizzlies, but because. This is the first meeting between the two teams since Stephenson was traded.

He is about to meet his former best friend, and his feelings are naturally extremely complicated.

It's spring in Memphis in March. As the plane whizzed down from the clouds, look out the window at the rows of buildings. A bend in the Mississippi River that runs through the middle of the city makes people feel a sense of comfort.

Although the Grizzlies are still ranked in the top eight in the West, anyone with a discerning eye knows that because of the lineup, there is not much competitiveness left for this team.

Kassel naturally knew this, and after arriving, he did not arrange the pre-game training of the players as he had done the other day, but took the team to visit the famous "Grace Garden" in Memphis.

The former home of Elvis Presley, one of America's most influential singers, is a towering white villa that welcomes visitors with a smile from its former owner.

"This is the guitar that Elvis used in front of him......"

"This is the one-piece suit that Elvis wore in front of him......"

The tour guide is constantly introducing the players, and the players in the United States, such as Paul and Jordan Jr., listen with relish. Magic is also extraordinarily serious.

Elvis Presley's life was very short, only 42 years, but his achievements in music are beyond the reach of many people in several lifetimes, and perhaps it is this kind of acting career similar to the domestic "beyond" Huang Jiaju that came to an abrupt end, so that people in the United States are full of infinite fantasies about him, and fantasy brings infinite respect.

Tang Shuai doesn't know much about Elvis, after all, Elvis Presley's golden songs were popular in the fifties and sixties of the last century, but he listened to the tour guide's introduction a little bit. He also paid tribute to the former musical giant.

In the fifties and sixties of the last century, the United States had just come out of the haze of the Civil War, and during this special period of time, something called the "American dream" spread rapidly throughout the country. In that special era, birth and status no longer completely determine a person's life, as long as you are willing to work hard. As long as you have the talent and ability, you can be very successful.

Elvis Presley, who came from a poor background, is the representative of the American dream, and he came from an extremely poor background. Relying on his own hard work and talent, he stepped onto the stage step by step and became an inspirational story of becoming a top musician. is the best representative of them.

"This trophy is Elvis Presley's first and only Grammy ......"

The tour guide pointed to a gramophone-shaped gold trophy and introduced it to the players.

Looking at the golden trophy, Tang Shuai unconsciously thought of the championship trophy in his mind, which is also the highest honor in their respective fields, whether he can have a day, or whether he will have a chance to impact this season, after all, the Clippers are strong after tinkering.

Coming out of Elvis Presley's former residence, the team members were talking and laughing, and it was obvious that this tour was very much to their taste.

On the evening of March 31, on the last day of March, the Clippers ushered in an away game against the Memphis Grizzlies.

In pre-game training, Tang Shuai met Stephenson, who he hadn't seen for two months.

Stephenson is on the move, but his comic attributes are good at everything, and he's talking and laughing with his teammates on the Grizzlies.

It looks like Stephenson has had a good time with the Grizzlies.

Tang Shuai originally wanted to wait for the warm-up time to go over to say hello, but before the time came, Stephenson himself ran over from the Grizzlies.

"Hey, guys! Tell me out loud that you miss me?! Stephenson walked over and shouted directly at the Clippers.

"Hey, Lance." Paul warmed up on the far left, stopped when he heard the shouting, smiled and went up to Stephenson for a hug.

"Hey, Lance, how was your life in Memphis? Have you ever gone to a nightclub? I've heard that the nightclub here is very good. Tang Shuai stood beside Paul, saw Stephenson, couldn't hide his excitement, and said while stretching out his hand.

"Oh hoo, punctuality, that's pretty punctuality, you won't be able to control your little brother, if you want to experience it, I'll take you to cool off tonight, make sure you don't want to leave Memphis the next day." Stephenson was still unscrupulous, laughing and giving Tang Shuai a deep hug.

"Brother, how are you doing in Memphis?" When they separated, Tang Shuai suddenly said seriously.

"It's good, I have a group of teammates here who are as good as in Los Angeles, and I'm lucky." Stephenson said with a smile.

"Looks like my original words have come true, and you'll be in Memphis." Tang Shuai said with a hint of relief.

"Yes, yes." Stephenson began to punch Tang Shuai.

"Hey. Reims! Smith also came over to say hello to Stephenson.

A group of former teammates, Stephenson hugged them one by one. A smile on his face.

Looking at Stephenson's performance, Tang Shuai unconsciously thought of the day he left. Facing his former teammates again, will this be the scene?

The pre-match training ended quickly and the match between the two sides began.

The current Grizzlies team is really miserable, there is no one left in the former starting five, and Carter Sr. and Stephenson are the main points of attack in the team.

Stephenson can be said to be very lucky here, shooting on the court, as if he was back to the glory days of Indiana.

However, the Grizzlies have very few offensive points, and they are basically powerless to parry against the Clippers.

118-76, the Clippers won effortlessly over the Grizzlies. They have 48 wins of the season and continue to cement their third place in the West.

Tang Shuai basically didn't exert much strength in this game, scoring 21 points and 3 assists in 22 minutes on the court, and he didn't need to make too much effort in the double-double game of the whole team.

To say that the biggest significance of this game is that with the score of this game, Tang Shuai's average points per game have successfully increased to 20.1 points, and he has officially entered the 20+ scoring club.

Although the Grizzlies are dismal, Stephenson's play is remarkable. He played 38 minutes in the game, made 8 of 15 shots, contributed a team-high 20 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, and performed quite well-rounded.

The game is over. Tang Shuai, Smith, and Stephenson naturally inevitably got together.

Even Tang Shuai was ready to get drunk tonight, but Stephenson didn't take them to the bar, but went to a nearby stadium for 10,000 people. Normally it's the venue for NFL football teams, but today it's the scene of Swift's concert.

This is a stop on Swift's national tour. It wasn't until this time that Tang Shuai knew that Stephenson was actually a fan of Swift. What made him even more unexpected was that he actually went to the concert in Los Angeles, but he just sat in the back row.

Stephenson took them all the way forward, went straight to the front row, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "This time I finally got three tickets, even seats, you will definitely remember this unforgettable night, and you can enjoy hearing Taylor's performance perfectly in this position!" ”

Smith looked a little excited.

Although NBA players earn a lot of money, because basically all their time is devoted to basketball-related things, they don't have much contact with the outside world, which is why many singers or movie stars rarely have contact with NBA players, or even become husband and wife.

But perhaps it is precisely because of this that the attitude of NBA players towards singers or movie stars is no different from that of ordinary people, just like Adu's most classic drinking Scarlett Johansson's bath water, they also have a semi-adoring gaze towards singers.

Tang Shuai is the most calm of the three, he and Swift have an erroneous understanding, if you really want to count it, the two of them can even be said to be ordinary friends.

They sat in the front row, and after a while, Swift, dressed in a silver dress, sat in front of the piano and slowly rose with the stage.

The cheers at the scene exploded instantly, different from the last time Tang Shuai saw Swift's queen dress, this time Swift was dressed like Alice in a magic novel.

"Wow......"

Swift's hand plays a gentle melody under the piano, as if to transport one to that dreamlike scene.

Tang Shuai's eyes gradually fell into a deep immersion.

Reality is too noisy and impetuous, and every time I listen to Swift's music, it is like a cleansing of the soul.

To say that Tang Shuai has a lot of beautiful women around him, and there are many temptations, although he doesn't take that step many times, he will have some thoughts in his heart, but only for Swift, he doesn't have any other thoughts, just just enjoy her as a person and her music.

If there really is a pure friendship between men and women, then it should be between him and Swift.

Swift's voice goes up and down with the piano, and the ethereal singing echoes through the stadium, but it seems to be singing in the ears.

Tang Shuai felt that the whole world was quiet, and he seemed to be on a small boat, sliding non-stop between the countryside and fields.

That's the beauty of music.

In addition to country music, Swift also has a lot of music that will make people high.

After a few calming music, Swift changed into sexy clothes and began to sing wildly.

Accompanied by the popular melody, Smith and Stephenson swayed in their seats to the music.

However, Tang Shuai didn't do it at this time, not because he didn't integrate into the music, but because she noticed a familiar person on the stage.

Selena Gomez, the woman who spent the night crazy with him in the Canadian Presidential Suite, is wearing a sexy deep V dress and singing and harmonizing with Swift.

Gomez's appearance on stage attracted another wave of excitement from the audience. (To be continued.) )
