143. Duncan is drunk
Listening to Duncan's strong praise, Ye Han felt a little weak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After last night's game, Ye Han kept thinking, could it be the retribution for the conversation with Duncan's demon tail before the game, that he was defeated by a Sato who came out of nowhere?
This morning, Duncan called to invite Ye Han and them to lunch, which was probably the last chance for Ye Han and Duncan to have a meal together this season, Ye Han and Bickerstaff took a leave of absence to fly back later, and Okafor also asked for leave to attend Duncan's family dinner.
When he arrived at Duncan's house, Ye Han felt the erosion of capitalism, this usually dull-looking stone man actually lived in a super mansion with an area of 5,000 square feet, although it was in the small city of San Antonio, but at least nearly 10 million US dollars could be bought.
Soon after lunch began, Duncan began to praise Ye Han's idea of hanging a photo on his jersey, and he discussed this idea with Po Povic, who actually thought it was a very good idea, and really planned to do so!
"This is what I should do, respecting our predecessors is what we should do, without our predecessors creating this NBA for us, how would we have the life we have now......" Ye Han said with a little weakness.
Okafor looked at Ye Han with adoring eyes, he didn't expect Ye Han and various bigwigs to chat together and become friends, he thought to himself when he could have such a status in the alliance, even Duncan would have to buy his account.
When men eat together, they naturally want to drink some wine.
Duncan had played under the old drunkard of Popovich for so many years, learned some of the habits of the old drunkard, and liked to drink red wine.
It's just that this stone-faced person has a poor amount of alcohol, and he drinks high, and it is naturally Okafor who accompanies him to drink, Ye Han has not yet reached the age of drinking, and Duncan, a good man who abides by the law, did not even prepare a wine glass for Ye Han, whether the Americans respect the law too much or what, I don't know.
"Ace, which team do you think has a better chance of winning the championship this year?" Duncan asked drunkenly.
"Champion?" Ye Han thought about it for a while, "Of course, I hope that it is our Bobcat who wins the championship, but it is too difficult, and I think you should have the greatest chance." ”
"Ha," Duncan burped and shook his head a little melancholy, "of course I want to win the championship so that I can have three championships like O'Neal." People call us the most powerful forward and center in NBA history, but everybody thinks I'm a center too, and O'Neal, who has won three championships, is better than me, and he's a three-time champion. ”
Duncan said and gulped down the red wine in the glass, if Pol-Povich saw this scene, he would definitely blow his beard and stare at him, is this called drinking red wine? It's just a waste.
Duncan burped again and continued: "It's not just because of the number of championships, I haven't beaten O'Neal since I had Kobe Bryant by his side, and if I had a shooting guard like you by my side, I would definitely be able to win more championships than him!" ”
It seems that Duncan's dissatisfaction with the team's lineup is true, Ye Han did not interject and continued to listen to Duncan's rare complaints.
"O'Neal has Dwyane Wade by his side this year, what the hell, if we run into them in the Finals, none of us on the outside can deal with him, I'm not saying Tony and Manu are bad, but the two of them are really far worse than you and Wade......" Duncan said and stopped, shook his head, and kept drinking.
Ye Han listened to Duncan's words and was touched in his heart, first of all, Duncan's domineering, as if there was no pressure on him to reach the finals, although the truth was also like that, no one in the West without O'Neal could stop him and his Spurs.
But Duncan's tone is more helpless, for the helplessness of the team's lineup, it seems that he wanted to leave the Spurs and join forces with Hill and Wade is true, as for how he was persuaded by Po Povich to stay, I don't know, the reason he said about the stadium may be one of them, but it is certainly not the key point.
"Don't you have Bowen? His defense is very strong......" Before Ye Han finished speaking, he was interrupted by Duncan.
"Bruce is good, he's the key to winning the championship in '03, but he's old and if you meet him again next year, you won't struggle like you did yesterday." Duncan's evaluation of Ye Han has always been very high.
"Is it ......" Ye Han carefully recalled Bowen's defense.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Okafor and Ye Han, who were full of wine and food, left Duncan's house, Duncan was already drunk, and returned to the room to lie down and sleep with the help of the nanny.
Speaking of which, Ye Han felt a little strange, where did Duncan's wife go? I heard that he was married, and he got married in 01, but he didn't think much about it, but he felt a little strange, and the hostess who was entertaining guests at home was not there.
After leaving Duncan's house, Ye Han and Okafor immediately rushed to the airport, and their luggage had already been brought back to Charlotte.
On the plane back to Charlotte, Okafor was silent and did not speak, which made Ye Han feel a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with you, Emeka, don't you speak?" Ye Han asked.
"Ace, you said that even Duncan is so jealous of O'Neal's strength, O'Neal is now in the East, do we have a chance to win the championship?" Okafor said worriedly.
It turned out that he was thinking about this, Ye Han couldn't help laughing, fortunately it was in the first class, and the first class cabin was just the two of them, otherwise even such a wide space would cause others to be dissatisfied.
"Ace, what are you laughing at, I'm serious now!" Okafor said dissatisfied.
"Have you forgotten that O'Neill is 33 years old? He's going to be old in a few years, but we're making progress at that time, and there's no need for you to worry about that. Ye Han ignored Okafor's stunned eyes, returned to his seat, put down his chair and began to sleep, it was a long way from San Antonio to Charlotte.
Probably because of the different cultures, Okafor couldn't understand the Chinese's idea that I can't beat you to death, so he was stunned when he heard what Ye Han said.
But Okafor thought about it carefully, it's really like that, O'Neal is very strong, yes, but he has an old day, as Jordan was choked by young people when he came back in the last two years, O'Neal will be 34 years old soon, and he won't be able to play in two years.
And the Bobcat estimates that O'Neal will retire soon in the past two years, and they won't be able to win the championship, worrying that this is completely superfluous, Okafor thought about it and felt funny, no wonder Ye Han looked at him like that.
