Chapter 53: To Cleveland
There was no snow in Miami. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The sun is very good.
Of course, it occupies the beauty of the southern country, but it is a pity for the city not to survive the frost and snow.
The spirit of Christmas lingered for a long time β Christmas trees can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, and Christmas stickers are plastered on every house.
The Heat's schedule is very well arranged, and they did not play for four days after the game against the Bulls on the 23rd, which is extremely rare in the league, and the players took this opportunity to take a good break and relax.
Beasley is probably the hardest working man on the team right now, and he jumped into training as soon as Christmas was over.
At this time, the team's boss Wade was attending a business event in Los Angeles, O'Neal Jr. was taking his family to New York, Chalmers, Cook and Wright were traveling to China together, and even training maniac Livingston obediently stayed at home to read a book.
In the American consciousness, the Christmas holiday is used for rest.
As for why Chalmers and the three of them traveled to China, it was actually from Beasley's suggestion.
More than a month ago, they were planning where to go during the Christmas holidays, and once they talked about this topic when they chatted in the IM group.
The details are as follows.
Chalmers: I've looked at the schedule, we have a little holiday at Christmas, I'm going to travel, do you have any like-minded friends?
Wade: Not available!
Joel Anthony: I'm not available!
Haslem: I'd like to go, it's too boring to stay at home, but my wife's due date is at that time, so I don't have time!
Chalmers: I really envy a man with a family, how can I be a bachelor! (drooling)
Wright: Count me in, I'm going back to my hometown for Christmas, so it's a waste of time, but this year I've brought all my family to Miami, so it's easy to hang out together!
Cook: I'm in the same situation as Dorel, so take me with you, too! (Raise hand)
Chalmers: Then there are three of us, @马ε Blunt, are you going big brother?
Blunt: I'm not going to join in the fun of your young people!
Chalmers: Michael, what about you? Why don't you speak?
Beasley: (rolls eyes) Please, I don't have that time to hang out, I need to train!
Chalmers: That's it!
Beasley: Say it again! (Angry) There is a kind of you coming to the stadium now, seeing that my brother doesn't teach you how to behave! (Anger)
Chalmers: (smiles) I'm too lazy to argue with you. @ζ΄ε₯ζ© Cook, @ε€ι·ε° Wright, where do you think it's better to go? What about Hawaii? Or go for a walk around Europe?
COOK: Forget about Hawaii, you can go there whenever you want, I don't know about Europe.
Wright: Europe is not very good, mainly because the time is too short to have fun! (disappointed)
Beasley: You can go to China, it's fun!
Chalmers: China? That most populous country in the world?
Wade: China is really good, the scenery is very good, and this year's Olympics are very good! (Thumbs up)
Beasley: I've been there, too, and I've heard that there's a mysterious force in the East, don't you want to check it out?
Chalmers: Sounds interesting! (Laughter)
Cook: I'm intrigued!
Wright: Me too!
Beasley: If you're going to go, you'll have to get a visa right now, and for three days and two nights, there's a lot of places to play. By the way, you still have to find a translator, and I suggest that you better find a foreign Chinese to go with you.
Chalmers: Then let's decide this way! (OK gesture)
After the travel was settled, Beasley said to Chalmers during a training session: "I forgot to tell you Mario, the Chinese way of greeting people is very special, and when you see people, you have to say, 'Silly. Force', this is the same as 'hello', come, you follow me again. β
"Stupid!"
"W-!"
"Wrong, it's stupid!"
"Silly... Bolt! β
"Still wrong!"
"Silly... Force! β
"Oh yes, finally yes! Don't forget, you must say when you meet Chinese, they will think you are very friendly! β
"Of course!"
Chalmers felt that he was everywhere with the smell of international friends, and Beasley forced a smile and ran away.
β¦β¦
On December 28, on a charter flight to Cleveland.
"Michael, I think you lied to me, as soon as I see the Chinese, I use 'stupid. force' word to say hello to them, but they all looked at me with a strange look, so 'stupid. 'Force' certainly doesn't mean 'hello', tell me what it really means! Chalmers sat next to Beasley, his expression looking solemn and his tone unkind.
Beasley shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "I didn't lie to you, maybe what you said was not standard!" β
"How is it possible, just look at your appearance and know that you are lying to me, say it quickly!" Chalmers said angrily.
"Okay, I can't hold it back, hahaha, it's so funny, the word means the same as idiot, get it? Hahaha! Beasley laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, so he leaned down to relieve the pain, and when he was a little better, he laughed again.
Around, other teammates burst into laughter when they heard it.
Chalmers was furious, "Well, you dare to lie to me! I'm fighting with you! β
With that, he rushed up and struck Beasley on the waist with his handβhe knew Beasley was afraid of itching.
It worked, and Beasley tickled him on his back, screaming, "Enough, don't get it, I'm itching to death!" Big Brother Mario, no, it's Grandpa Mario! Please, I was wrong! β
However, Chalmers ignored him and continued to scratch until he had fun.
What a torture!
Finally stopped, Beasley's mind automatically jumped out again and Chalmers smiled and said to the Chinese, "Silly. forced", he couldn't hold back, and laughed again, "Hahahaha, amused me to death!" β
When Chalmers saw it, his face suddenly turned blue, "Wow, you are still smiling?" β
Then he pounced on it again, and used his tickling magic skill.
Beasley immediately asked his teammates for help, but his teammates didn't mean to help, and instead took out their phones to take pictures of Beasley's ugly appearance.
Careless dating!
β¦β¦
In the evening, the Quick Loan Center.
It's snowing in Cleveland, a lot of snow, and this industrial city on the south shore of Lake Erie has very cold winters.
Beasley felt it as soon as he got off the plane, but fortunately Wade had already ordered it, and everyone was wearing thick coats, but it was still quite cold.
It wasn't until inside the arena that the temperature started to heat up.
In the locker room, everyone had already changed into their training clothes, and Spoo muttered, "What a bad day, Cleveland is so cold!" I hate to come here in the middle of winter to play away, it's terrible! And my ring, which my mother left me! β
He lost his ring on the way here, so there were some complaints.
He muttered for a moment, then began the pre-game mobilization, "Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy guys, boys, it's cold here, but I know your hearts are hot, your hands are hot, come on, let's kill the Clevelands!" β
Then, everyone reached out and came together.
"Come on, Heat!"
