Chapter 125: Celebrating the Festival Alone
The 14-year NBA Christmas War has arranged a confrontation between two of the most prestigious superstars in the league at the moment. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Little Emperor James vs. Flash Wade, this year, James ushered in his 11th season, averaging nearly 25 points per game, but also able to grab 6 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game. Similarly, Kobe Bryant has not aged this year, and he is just over 32 years old, and he can still approach 20+5 data per game.
What particularly made this game stand out was LeBron's return to the American Airlines arena. Gimmicks, grudges, fights, and performances make up the basic elements of this game that is particularly unusual.
The University of Kansas had an early holiday, and Li Dong was alone in his apartment, turned on the heating, turned on the NBATV, and waited for the game to start early.
When he was alone in his apartment, he would watch the NBA game quietly like this.
He can feel that he is getting closer and closer to his dream of entering the NBA. He has also seen recent reports, and aside from the media that has completely praised him, some well-known basketball experts have begun to analyze his situation, and the vast majority of experts believe that he has a lot of potential to make it to the NBA.
For the current NBA players, Li Dong does not have any particularly crazy admired stars. Relatively speaking, he still has a lot of love for last season's MVP, Kevin Durant, but unfortunately, today's Thunder game will not be played until the end, and the time in the West is not the same as here, and he estimates that he will fall asleep if he can't last that time.
At this time, Li Dong's mobile phone suddenly vibrate.
Li Dong frowned slightly, who would call him at this time period? He looked at the number, uh, it was still an international call.
"Hello?" Li Dong answered the phone.
"Hey, hello, is it Mr. Li Dong?" On the other end of the phone, a man's thick voice came.
Li Dong's mind was racing rapidly, carefully discerning the man's voice, and it seemed to have a little familiarity. Then he cautiously tentatively asked, "Are you?" ā
"I'm ......" couldn't pretend anymore on the other end of the phone, and burst out laughing, and then Li Dong heard the laughter on the phone.
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his head, and he remembered who this was, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you Liu Kai, you dare to tease the old man!" ā
"Oh, it's still an old man! It's only been a few days since I was a big brother, and I was corrupted by the evil American imperialists? Liu Kai's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, although he was arguing with Li Dong, but Li Dong listened, his heart was warm, and he felt that his nose was sour.
"What's the matter, have time to call me." Li Dong suppressed his mood for a moment, and then asked in a calm tone as much as possible.
Liu Kai said: "Ha, it's nothing, didn't you say that you had Christmas over there today, thinking that you should be alone is very boring, give you a call and chat." ā
"Oh, yes." Liu Kai continued endlessly: "Those things you gave me before you left are really valuable, and in the past few days, some of your fans have come over to ask me for that notebook." ā
Three black lines appeared on Li Dong's head, and his eyelids jumped: "So you sold it?" ā
"Of course!" Liu Kai said.
Li Dong immediately scolded: "Damn, you are hopeless!" ā
"Listen to me." Liu Kai coughed dryly and said: "Of course I didn't sell it, he was stupid when I was stupid, he wanted to buy me for fifty yuan for this notebook, if you enter the NBA in the future and become a superstar, this notebook is your first signed notebook, how can the commercial value be compared with now?" Isn't it worth more money to sell it when the time comes? ā
Li Dong: "......"
"Hey, are you listening to me? I told my roommates in my dorm that you were my high school tablemate, and now they feel like you're the person next to them, and they've all become your fans, hey...... No way...... Grab your sister! Also robbed ...... I rely on ......."
"Li Dong, I'm Liu Kai's lower bunk~ My name is ......"
"I'm the head of the house, I'll come first...... No way...... You guys have no humanity! ā
Li Dong couldn't cry or laugh, and the chaotic battle in Liu Kai's bedroom came to his mind, and there was a look of envy in his eyes. Although he gets along well with his classmates at the University of Kansas, the communication and some small details of life habits still make him incompatible with the whole American college life, such as party activities and other things, he really doesn't like it at all. It's a few friends on the basketball team who really managed to get together.
"Damn, Dongzi, don't talk about it, these rabbit cubs are going to turn the sky upside down, I have to treat them first. Next time we go back to Xinxiang, let's meet again......"
"Toot Toot Toot Toot Too~"
The blind sound of the phone sounded, and Li Dong slowly hung up the phone. Being made such a fuss by Liu Kai, his mood also became better, and a smile appeared on his face.
At this point, the game between the Heat and the Cavaliers began.
In the second quarter, James led the team alone, and he drew a foul on Ruel Deng and went to the free throw line
Li Dong gestured at the thick arm of James, who was as powerful as a prehistoric monster on TV, and then touched his biceps, which was still slightly contoured, and couldn't help but smack his tongue: "It's really a terrifying body, if I enter the alliance and encounter such an opponent, how can I defend?" ā
Immediately after, Wade dribbled to the front court and hit a step-back jumper after a half-turn and shaking! Li Dong let out an exclamation when he saw it, the magnitude of this backlash was outrageous, and the most important thing was that he actually threw it in! "Is that what the NBA's top superstars are capable of? It's so scary just to watch it on TV. ā
He watched the back-and-forth duel between Wade and James, and couldn't help but put himself into the other party's role, fantasizing about how he would break through the defense and defend others if it were him.
"Ring, ring, ring." At this time, Li Dong's mobile phone rang again.
"Who!" A trace of anger flashed between Li Dong's eyebrows, this time was the critical time of the game, and it was very unpleasant to be disturbed.
But as soon as he looked at the person's phone number, he immediately became frowning and laughing.
"Hello~" Li Dong's tone naturally became extremely gentle, and even he didn't notice it.
"What are you doing?" On the other end of the phone, Xing Jinwen's cuckoo-like voice came, with a hint of softness, which only softened Li Dong's bones.
Li Dong immediately replied: "Look at the game again, the Christmas war, the Lakers vs. the Cavaliers." ā
At this moment, outside the corridor of the women's dormitory of Hangzhou University, Xing Jinwen was wrapped tightly, holding his mobile phone to make a call.
"There are no classes this morning, well, it's just morning......
"No, it's only a holiday on New Year's Day."
"No, we're still studying hard, okay, you think it's like you!"
Squeak~ The door of the girls' dormitory opened, one by two, three heads stacked together, and sneakily saw Xing Jinwen leaning against the wall on the phone, and they all let out a gossip smile.
......
The college holidays in Kansas ended in a state of distraction, and before the students could recover from the party, the clock ticked by in 2015.
The NCAA basketball league has become even more popular, and the Big Twelve League has become red-eyed.
The University of Kansas' first game of the new year was against the Stanford Cardinals, who were bitter hosts of last year's tournament. Last year, Andrew Wiggins' University of Kansas lost 60-57 to the Cardinals and unfortunately missed out on qualifying for the Sweet 16.
And this year, the two teams have very different encounters.
The strength of the University of Kansas, which has Li Dong and Kelly Oubre, has risen instead of falling, killing the entire Big Twelve League, and even the University of Kentucky Wildcats, who have the terrifying inside monster Carl Anthony Towns, also fell under the iron hooves of this inexplicable dark horse, and suddenly became the most powerful team in the entire Big Twelve League. The Cardinals, on the other hand, have really become sluggish this season after losing some quality players, and have only achieved a mediocre record of 4 wins and 5 losses since the start of the season.
Therefore, for the University of Kansas, which can win the current 10-game winning streak at home, even the students of the University of Louisville itself rushed to cheer, there is not much confidence in their hearts.
Without much effort, the University of Kansas won the game 83-67.
If it weren't for a couple of three-pointers thrown in by the Cardinals' small guards in the final garbage time, the University of Kansas would have ended the game by more than 20 points, and Coach Beal was very pleased to be able to establish such a big advantage in such a slow offensive tempo.
He really started to see a road that shone brightly, a path to the championship trophy in April.
