57. Surprise
One night, Hua Ben was so horny that he didn't sleep well, and the next day he slept until noon, when he stretched his waist and got up, packed some food, and prepared to participate in the team's afternoon training.
When he arrived at the training hall, Hua Ben went into the locker room to change clothes, but as soon as he pushed the door open, a big man with a carved dragon and a tiger with a fierce face sat at the door and stared at him.
Seeing this face, Huaben thought that he was sleeping, so he shook his head vigorously, but when he opened his eyes again, he still looked like Rashid Wallace in front of him.
"Rashid, why are you here?" Hua Ben asked in surprise.
Yes, it was the roaring Tianzun who was traded to the Hawks by the Trail Blazers, at this time Tianzun was wearing a pair of headsets, shaking his head and listening to something, he ignored Huaben's inquiry, maybe he didn't hear it at all.
At this time, Billups walked in, he had a newspaper in his hand, and when he saw Hua Ben, he handed it over, and saw that the first page of the newspaper was the first page:
"Basketball Weekly" News, on February 20, 2004, the NBA official website identified a big deal involving a total of seven people from three parties, the three teams involved in the transaction are the Hawks, the Pistons, and the Celtics, of which the Hawks sent the problem power forward Rasheed Wallace who just got from Portland, and the Pistons sent Yugoslav center Rebraka, guard Bob Sula and a first-round pick to Atlanta this year (the draft pick was obtained by the Pistons from the Bucks, according to the agreement, This draft pick can only be given to the Hawks if the Bucks make the playoffs this year); They will also give guards Hunter, Atkins and one of their own first-round picks plus some cash to the Celtics in exchange for guard Michael James..."
"We lost half of our brothers at once." Billups said in a low mood, in fact, he is not resistant to this trade at all, because they got an All-Star level power forward, and to be honest, if it weren't for Rashid's temper and bad reputation, he could have made it to the All-Star. With Rashid, Hua could have been liberated to the small forward position, and their roster will be more complete, and they may even have a chance to win a championship.
But no player will be happy about trading, and the separation of teammates is sad, but the feeling of being sold like goods is even more uncomfortable for them, especially since Sula and Campbell were with them two days ago and went to Los Angeles to watch the All-Stars.
Huaben experienced a player trade for the first time, and his heart was even heavier, Sula and others have always supported him, although these people can't provide much help to the team during the game, but they are used to playing with these people, and it feels good. Hua Ben is not Kobe, his teammates can't help him and kick away, and he thinks that not being able to lead the team to play well is the reason for the boss, because there is a nest of bears.
"Bob, what about them?" Wabben asked Billups with a sigh.
Billups shrugged, pointed to the spare locker rooms, and said, "They're all gone, and the Detroit team notified them as soon as they got back, and then they packed up and left." ”
Hearing this, Hua Ben's heart was full of frustration, and he asked anxiously, "Shit, why did you leave like this?" Don't they even bother to say goodbye? ”
Billups gave Warburn a strange look and asked, "Didn't Bob call you?" Last night? ”
Hua Ben smiled awkwardly and explained vaguely: "My phone is broken. ”
"Yesterday Bob they called, and they said Larry and Joe had given them advance notice, and then, you know, today is the end of the deal, so they were in a hurry and left Detroit last night. Bob said that he would apologize to you when we met again in the future, but this time I was in too much of a hurry and there was no way..." Billups shook his head, not wanting to say any more.
Wabbon slammed his fist on the closet and shrunk into the nearest chair, remembering the last time he saw Sula in Los Angeles, the guy looked at him and Bell, and muttered obscenely, 'Shit, if you have such a girl with you, the ghost will go to a bad place like a nightclub,' which made him extremely angry. Originally, he planned to go back to Detroit to clean up this kid, but he was traded away so quickly.
The muffled sound of Waben pounding the wardrobe woke up Rashid, who was immersed in hip-hop, he took off his big headset and laughed at Waben: "Hey, Ben, we meet again, it's an honor, you can fight side by side with me in the future." ”
Seeing Rashid's triumphant expression, Waben barely smiled and bumped his fist into him. Later, Rashid pointed to the closet in the middle of the locker room and said, "Whose thing is that?" Better clean up quickly, I think I should sit there. ”
Rashid is pointing in the direction of Warburn's wardrobe, which is also the position of the team boss in general.
"What do you mean?" Hua Ben looked at him coldly.
Rashid didn't feel the chill in Huaben's tone, he said with a grin: "It's very simple, I'm here to be the boss of your team, you know, I can get 17 million a season, I think, your team will exchange me, it's not a substitute, right?" ”
Billups spat and tried to speak, but Wabbon tapped him on the shoulder to stop him from speaking, then sat down next to Rashid and said, "Remember what I told you when I was in Portland?" I'm the boss of Detroit. ”
Rashid didn't take Warburn seriously at all, and he laughed, "Are you kidding, man? You say you're the boss? How much money do you get in a season? Are you the boss? That Detroit is too shabby, to tell you, I'm the boss, otherwise what am I doing in this goddamn city? ”
Seeing Rashid's arrogant look, Hua Ben was not angry, he smiled and patted Rashid's shoulder and said, "Brother, you can come here because I accidentally said something to Larry, saying that you are not bad and can help us." If you think we're here to ask you to be the boss, then you better hurry up and get out! ”
Upon hearing this, Rashid became angry, and he shouted, "Watch your words! Do I have to give you some color? ”
Hua Ben sneered, he took off his thin coat, revealing his steel-like muscles, and nodded: "Come and give me a little color to see, Rashid, let me see your ability, you can pick whatever you want on and off the field, I will accompany you!" Don't think this is the mother's prison Portland, this is Detroit, it's the villain's territory, put away your lustful set, here, you don't need to talk much, just pay attention to your fists! ”
As he spoke, Huaben suddenly threw a fist and chiseled it against Rashid's face on the wardrobe behind him, and suddenly there was a muffled sound, and the hardwood wardrobe sliding door was smashed.
"I have a brother who left because of you, and I feel very sad now, and I want to kill someone!" Hua Ben gritted his teeth and said word by word, "Be quiet here, I don't mind using you to practice boxing." ”
