On the eve of the Rocket-Sun battle, the media broke the news that Hayes and Taylor Swift broke up, perhaps a villain wanted to upset Hayes's mood and increase the Suns' chances of winning.

The cause is what Taylor Swift said in an interview.

When asked by reporters about the relationship, Taylor said: "I'm too busy to have time to date, and I don't even have time to sit alone." I think being single is the perfect state for me. ”

The reporter asked Hayes about the situation again, and Taylor smiled: "I like him, I love him, Chuck is like my brother, if you want to talk about a boyfriend, there is also a little ...... I can't tell, anyway, I really want to get the job done first, and Chuck will understand me. ”

Taylor said what was from her heart, and she knew that Hayes would definitely support her, so she dared to say these things in front of the media.

There are only two kinds of people in the American entertainment industry, those who are popular and those who are not.

An artist is not popular, he is idle all day long, and he has to let the economic man find a way to find a job; Once it becomes popular, all kinds of jobs and endorsements come to the door, making people unable to spare a little time.

Taylor Swift is lucky, she made a successful debut, and she has the support of Hayes, a "musical genius". The story of "Shrek and the Princess" made her extremely exposed, and Taylor's popularity skyrocketed like a rocket, becoming a household name in the music industry. Some professors put this on the university course as a classic hype case in the American entertainment industry. Singing strength, age, and appearance are all brought together, and Taylor has received several times more attention than some actresses who have strength and no appearance, and her career is booming, and she really has no time to fall in love.

As a result, Taylor's interview was taken out of context by the media. Only the first sentence appeared on the news. The note at the back is: Taylor Swift talks about the relationship situation and bluntly says that he has returned to singleness. She hasn't been to the Rockets' home court for a month, and there are signs that she and Hayes have broken up.

The truth is, how could Taylor be away from Houston for a month because of work, how could it be possible to watch the Rockets play? You can't fly back and see it before you leave. However, no matter how outrageous the news is, some people will believe it.

Hayes came home for the holidays, and his parents asked about him and Taylor.

During the meal, Hayes's mother, Tracy, made him squirt out the rice with a word. "Chuck, it's time for you to get married!"

Hayes smiled wryly, "Mom, Taylor is only 17 years old. ”

"She's 17 years old, but you're 24 years old. Aren't you in a hurry? Well, I've never heard on the news about a woman you're dating. Tracy said with some concern: "You used to know how to steal your dad's credit card to buy gifts for your girlfriend when you were in college, now what's going on with you?" ”

Hayes did have a girlfriend when he was in college, and the two later broke off contact. If he hadn't been reborn, that person would probably have been Hayes's original wife.

Of course, Hayes couldn't go to the college girlfriend, and said helplessly: "I'm not the best player in the league yet, I need time to practice and improve myself, and I'm in a similar situation with Taylor now, and I don't have time to fall in love, let alone get married." ”

"You want to wait for Taylor to grow up, right? Have you ever thought about your future, she is white and a star. What if she falls in love with someone else in the future and makes you wait? Your college teammates are all married, so it's just you and Corunna (Azubuuk). On April Fool's Day, magazines were accompanied by photos saying that you two had broken backs, and you couldn't do that. Old Charles also said earnestly: "Jessica is about to become a mother, but you don't even talk about love." ”

The family has a habit of marrying young, and Hayes' sister, Jessica, is not only married, but also pregnant, and by November, he will become an uncle. His mother was very happy because she was about to have a grandchild and she was looking forward to becoming a grandmother. Hayes thought it was strange because Tracy was only 42 years old.

In the United States, blacks tend to marry earlier than whites, and this is especially true for NBA stars. Because of the financial foundation, playing is quite tiring and needs to have a family life to relax. Some people say that early marriage is a good thing for players, and it can enhance men's sense of responsibility and leadership skills. For example, Wade got married at the age of 19, and although James is not married, he already has a child...... "I want to be the best player first, I've already decided." Love is fate, I was born to play basketball! Hayes smiled.

Being the best player and getting married are actually not in conflict, the real reason is that Hayes and blacks have different concepts, and it is the Chinese soul that dominates after all. He is happy to be nice to his current family, but he can't make his living habits like black, and that lifestyle will make him feel troublesome and depressed.

Hayes is very casual when it comes to love. Everything is a true portrayal of his heart. If Taylor really likes someone else, he hasn't thought about it, it will be uncomfortable, but it won't be the end of the world, he is willing to go with the flow. But basketball, he vowed to make it to the Hall of Fame.

After eating, Hayes returned to the apartment, greatly relieved. For him, seeing his family now is not a relaxation, but a task, and he does not feel joy.

Not long after he entered, someone rang the doorbell.

"You're back so soon?" Gao Tongxuan said with a smile.

"Yes, just have a meal." When Hayes saw Gao Tongxuan, the depression in his heart was swept away, and he smiled: "How did you eat dinner at night?" ”

"Go downstairs and have a casual bite to eat. It's boring to blame yourself. Gao Tongxuan said.

"What did you eat?"

"Ah...... Hamburg ......" Gao Tongxuan thought for a moment and said.

Hayes sighed and said, "You must not have eaten again, you want to lose weight, right?" Skipping dinner will make your stomach hungry. ”

"It's okay, the book says it's okay to eat less at night." Gao Tongxuan stuck out her tongue and said with a smile.

"That means eat less, not not eat, and you're not fat, what are you going to lose?"

"I'm really fat, I've eaten a lot lately, and I feel like my face is bigger...... Gao Tongxuan said.

"I don't eat much at night, let's go to Yao Restaurant to eat a little. You go and change your clothes. Hayes suggested.

When Gao Tongxuan went out, her face was full of smiles, and she enjoyed the feeling of being cared for by Hayes.

During this time, Hayes had a lot of holidays, and they all ate at home together. The two went to each other's homes as "guests" and took turns cooking. At the earliest, Gao Tongxuan wanted to use her cooking skills to do something for Hayes, but she didn't expect Hayes to cook well. Listening to Hayes say that he learned Chinese food by watching TV shows and recipes, Gao Tongxuan felt that he was the smartest American.

The two of them chat and eat together, and the simple food will become much more delicious.

Hayes also likes to be with Gao Tongxuan, and the Chinese "fellow" makes him feel very cordial.

When they arrived at the specific private room of Yao's restaurant, the two casually asked for two dishes.

Gao Tongxuan said with a smile: "The chef of Yao Restaurant is not as delicious as what you cook. When are you going to do the Nine Turns of the Large Intestine again? Alas, I'll eat this and eat fat. ”

Hayes will cook some special Lu dishes, which arouse the cravings in Gao Tongxuan's stomach. He thought about it and smiled: "The day after tomorrow." Hit the sun first. If you still want to eat, buy the food in advance, I'll do it, and you can do it next time. ”

Hayes also likes to eat Gao Tongxuan's cooking, in the United States, there are too few people who can cook, even if they have money, it is difficult to have a good mouth.

Talking about the Suns' game, Gao Tongxuan said: "Actually, I have always felt that your style is more suitable for the Suns. I've done statistics, Yao Ming is off the court, and when the Rockets' offense picks up, your points and rebounds will increase. You're always at your best during that time, and you're not fast, but you're good at running and shooting. Hehe, in fact, I think it would be easier to play against the Sun if Brother Ming didn't play. ”

"This is his territory, the wall has ears, be careful that he hears about it and comes to beat you." Hayes said with a smile, Gao Tongxuan said that he didn't think about it. Yao Ming did slow down the speed of the whole team, if he didn't get up, the speed of the rocket would not lose to the Sun. If he does, the Suns will be able to find the rocket's life. If you fight back quickly like you did with the Clippers. Yao Ming is a blue-collar worker, grabbing rebounds and passing to the front court is a way. It's just that I don't know if this trick will work against the sun, the sun is too fast, and the inside line is also speed-based.

In the regular season, although the Rockets beat the Suns 3-1, they bit very tightly in every game, and if it weren't for the cold hands of the Suns in a certain period of time, the outcome would be unpredictable.

"What do you want?" Gao Tongxuan saw that Hayes had not spoken and asked.

"I think the Rockets will win, but they will lose some effort. Offense wins the box office, defense wins championships. The Suns can't win against us on offense alone. Stoudamire attack is fierce and I admit he can't defend against it, but his defense is full of holes. Hayes said.

"Isn't it true that offense can't win a championship? I think the sun is good. Last season, without Stoudamire, they also made it to the Western Conference Finals. The few games that we lost, it wasn't that we didn't have a chance, but we were unlucky in the end. There are also the former Kings, who could have won the championship by attacking in 2002, but they were simply hacked. You know that game for sure. Gao Tongxuan said.

I said...... Sister Xuan, why do you look like a Sun fan? If they play beautifully, I'll be miserable. Haven't you seen enough of the regular season guy (referring to Stadamire) who always dunked on my head and made me disgraced? Hayes smiled bitterly and flicked it on Gao Tongxuan's head.

"I'm just telling the truth. Rockets can actually be attack-oriented, which is better looking. Gao Tongxuan said that she, like most fans, prefers to watch beautiful offense than the Rockets' defensive style of play. So many people contact you and ask you to join with a high salary, don't you really think about it? The Rockets haven't mentioned renewing your contract until now, I don't think they have the sincerity to keep you at all, and when the time comes, it will definitely be difficult to get the top salary, you have to be mentally prepared. ”

"I'm ready to stay. The Rockets have such a strong lineup, how can they go? Hayes sighed. The top salary and the championship are like fish and bear's paws, how to have both?
