Chapter 52: Organizing a Group to Watch the Christmas War
At about two or three o'clock, before dawn, the team of "good news" finally dispersed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Beasley was a little sleepy and went home and fell asleep on his bed.
I slept until noon.
"Brother, hurry up and eat!" It was Malik, the little imp who woke up Beasley.
Beasley opened his eyes in a daze, then stretched, "Oh Malik, Merry Christmas!" ”
"Merry Christmas, brother!" Malik blinked wide-eyed, and although he had black blood in his veins, he had the same handsome face as Beasley, with a high nose, and looked a little more like a white man.
Beasley suddenly remembered that the Christmas gift he had prepared had not been given to him, so he quickly opened his phone and found the video.
"Malik, come and see, this is a Christmas present for you from my brother." Beasley led Malik to the edge of the bed and sat down, then handed him his phone.
The little ghost had a curious look on his face.
The video has already started to play, and it is very short, only 10 seconds.
Paul's face appeared on his phone.
"Hi Malik, I'm Chris Paul, the primary point guard for the New Orleans Hornets. It's Christmas, uh... Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a healthy, smart, and happy year ahead! And, of course, Merry Christmas to your brother Michael! "Paul is handsome and has a sunny boy flavor to his smile.
Malik screamed loudly, "Oh my God! This is Chris Paul! This is Paul! He actually wished me a Merry Christmas! ”
He was jumping around with excitement.
Beasley crossed his arms and smiled, "Malik, how about your brother's gift?" ”
"Great! It was the best Christmas gift I have ever received in my life! Brother, I love you to death! You must be the best brother in the world! Malik danced with his hands, holding his phone and refusing to let it go, repeating the video.
Beasley smiled and shook his head, and thought to himself: It won't be long before I surpass Paul, and then let this kid worship me.
Before going downstairs, he called Shayk to send Christmas wishes, which must not be forgotten.
In the living room, the elders have prepared a long table of sumptuous food.
This time, the menu was even more complete: tamales, roast goose with red cabbage, crayfish jambalay, smoked ham, Christmas salmon, roast pork, seafood salad and more.
But it's a pity that as an athlete, he can't eat and drink nonsense, like the roast turkey yesterday, he only ate a little bit, and even some food he can't even touch, because eating it may reduce his physical fitness.
And then he had to spend a lot of time and energy trying to get it back.
There is no way, there are gains and losses, not to mention that this is just a small requirement on the road to success.
After dinner, Wade called.
"Merry Christmas, Michael."
"You too, Merry Christmas! I forgot to tell you, my brother is so happy today! ”
"Haha, that's good, by the way, are you free in the afternoon?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I'm going to have a Christmas party, watch the ball together, won't you come?"
"Good! Who are they? ”
"Udonis and Jermaine are teammates, but I haven't informed them yet, so I called you first."
"Well, okay, when will it arrive?"
"Come here now!"
Hanging up the phone, Beasley said hello to his family and drove out, he was in good spirits now, the car was driving fast, and more than a dozen cars were overtaken on the road in a row.
It's a Christmas in the depths of winter, but there's no snow in Miami, and if it's New York, you'll be able to stand the snow on the road.
Wade owns several houses in the city, and he now lives in a wealthy neighborhood on an artificial island.
After half an hour's drive, Beasley finally reached his destination.
"Merry Christmas, Michael!" Chalmers stood in the doorway, he was the furthest away from this except Beasley, so he arrived relatively late.
Beasley stepped forward and hugged him, "You too, Mario!" ”
At this time, Wade opened the door from the inside, "You guys have finally arrived, come in!" Just waiting for the two of you! ”
Then he led the two of them inside.
Once in the party room, the teammates are there, and Beasley greets them one by one and says "Merry Christmas".
There was a huge TV in the room, and the first game of the Christmas War was being played on it.
Hornets vs. Magic.
"Chris has a game today, huh?" Beasley asked Wade.
Wade nodded, "yes! ”
Haslem on the side was a little helpless and said: "If it weren't for the bad record last season, we should have stood on the pitch in our jerseys today." ”
Many people think so.
On TV, the game went to the final quarter, and the Magic led the Hornets by almost 20 points, which is equivalent to garbage time, and the commentator meant that Paul didn't feel good today, and his offensive presence was very low. On the Magic side, Rashad Lewis hit six three-pointers and Howard also scored 25 points.
"Magic is going strong this year!" Chalmers sighed.
Wade licked his lips, his eyes bursting with strong fighting spirit, "In the East, there are only four teams that can be called our opponents - the Celtics, Cavaliers, Pistons, Magic, beat them, and then enter the Finals, that's my goal." ”
Eventually, the Magic defeated the Hornets, and immediately after that, the second Christmas game began.
Suns vs Spurs.
The showdown between the two giants in the West, one side is the Suns Running Team, and the other is the Spurs system with GDP as the core.
It's going to be a good game.
Sure enough, the two teams were still inextricable until the last minute, with 4.3 seconds left, Stoudemire assisted Grant Hill for a layup, Popovich called a timeout, and when he returned, Parker passed to Mason, who pressed the whistle for a three-point shot!
"Wow, this can also be in?"
"Who is this?"
"Lore, anti-lore! It's a pretty good game! ”
"Shak's expression is hilarious!"
"He's usually that look when he's frustrated, and he's been a teammate for a couple of years, I know."
……
When everyone in the Heat is not playing on the court, they are actually fans, and they are all very excited to watch, and when Hill hit two points, they all thought the Suns were going to win, but who knew that they were killed by a small person.
"When I played in the preseason, this Roger Mason's three-pointer was a bit of a convulsion." Beasley had fought with him, so he made this comment.
Cook smiled and said, "What's the use?" In the end, I wasn't killed by you! ”
Beasley listened to it with great interest, and took a glass of wine and said to Cook, "Cheers!" ”
Cook also raised his glass, "Dry! ”
The two drank it all.
Next up is the highlight, the Lakers vs. Celtics, which is a repeat of last season's Finals, and the other games don't add up to the weight of this one.
The game was held in Staples, and there were many celebrities and stars present, after all, Los Angeles is a metropolis, and in later generations, even the Heat triumvirate led by James played the Christmas game as a guest to Staples.
Bryant got into the groove as soon as the game started, scoring consecutive singles points, and the Celtics were not to be outdone, and the Big Three combined to contribute 20 points in the first quarter.
"It looks like Kobe Bryant is going to soar high again." Little O'Neill said lightly.
Everyone else nodded in agreement.
In the second half, Kobe Bryant turned on the rampage mode, Gasol also turned on, the Lakers were very angry, they won the game like a bamboo, although the Green Army Big Three performed well, but Kobe Bryant cut 40 points, Gasol also scored 22 points.
Winning at home, scoring high scores, or the much-anticipated Christmas game, Kobe Bryant was undoubtedly a winner on this night.
Beasley turned his head to look at Wade, and saw a hint of envy in his eyes.
He knew what that gaze meant – who wouldn't want to be in the spotlight?
What's more, Wade is not much worse than Kobe!
It was already 7 p.m. after watching this game, and although there were still two games to be played in the Christmas game, Beasley had said goodbye, he had to go home for dinner, and the remaining two games were not much to see.
As soon as Beasley left, everyone else left, and the party ended.
When he got home, Beasley had a casual bite to eat, and he had drunk quite a bit in the afternoon, so he was full.
When he drank too much, he easily wanted to sleep, and on Christmas Eve, he went back to his room early to rest.
