74. Locker room problem (three watches, magic dragon)

"What are you willing to do? Would you like to make out with my rifle? Bell raised his willow eyebrows and asked with a malicious smile, instantly turning from a seductive witch to a violent demon.

Hua Ben had to suspect that the witch was teasing himself just now, and he watched expectantly as Bell waited for her female surname to take on hormones and then invited him to play the Chengren game, but unfortunately what he waited for was Bell waving his hand mercilessly:

"Good night, Ben, thank you for taking me home, and for listening to my nagging, go back to sleepβ€”hey, why aren't you leaving? Waiting for me to send you with a re-gun? ”

Hua Ben really regretted why he put away the red wine, he knew that he should have drunk this girl, and he dared to think about it, the etiquette of more than 20 years in his previous life made him have the heart of a thief and not the courage of a thief.

After a big home win over the 76ers, the Pistons' February came to an end, and they began to usher in March, commonly known as the playoff sprint month. The day before the player trade gate closed, Dumas and Brown finally put together a playoff fifteen-man roster, most of which were impromptu from the NBDL.

Huaben didn't want to ask too much for anything from the uniform group, and Rashid's salary was 14 million, and his arrival made the Pistons' funds a little tight.

Rashid is indeed worth the price, the 29-year-old Tianzun is one of the NBA's most full-named interior lines, his ability is not inferior to Garnett and O'Neal Jr., especially about the understanding of single defense, can defend the No. 4 and No. 5 positions, and help teammates reduce pressure very well.

The most intuitive manifestation of Tianzun's ability is that since he arrived, the team has won five consecutive games, and in the first three games in March, the Pistons defeated the Hornets, Hawks, and Magic respectively, and won three big victories heartily, and in the standings, the Nets achieved the same victory.

However, the major media outlets are still on the sidelines for the Pistons, as all three of their opponents are strong contenders for this year's draft lottery picks, and none of these three teams will make the playoffs. The Pistons don't take the media's doubts to heart, and since you think our opponent is too weak, then we'll find you a strong team to try it out.

The powerhouse soon emerged, and on March 8, the Pistons traveled to Minnesota against the Timberwolves, who are the No. 1 team in the West.

Despite the team's gratifying winning streak, Waghben and Brown weren't much happier, probably because they were familiar with the Pistons, and some of the bad habits that Rashid developed in Portland began to emerge, such as not attending practice, such as being late before the game, and bullying newcomers. The three players who had just been promoted from the NBDL became his little brothers, and they were instructed by him to run east and west, and these people finally got the opportunity to play in the NBA, and they dared not speak out in the face of Rashid, who regarded himself as the team's second brother.

Waben warned Rashid a few times, but he did not restrain at all, but had the intention of provoking Waben, but this guy was smart, he began to win over his teammates, and often invited Billups, Hamilton, Mirisic and others, seeing that he had the intention of dividing the team.

For Rashid's co-optation, Billups, Hamilton, Prince these villains are you invite you, I eat me, what you say, I am in the left ear and out of the right ear. After Oku and Mirisic were cared for by Rashid a few times, their faces were tender, and when there was another argument in the dressing room, they did not dare to come forward.

Since entering March, there have been a lot of troubles about Rashid, first of all, I don't know who broke the news of the resurgence of Rashid's bad habits, many media outlets have begun to promote the Pistons' locker room problems, and even ESPN has raised questions, doing a survey on the homepage of the website, asking fans what they think about whether Rashid can fit into the Pistons.

Secondly, Bell's return once again plunged him into the whirlpool of public opinion, it seems that the box office of Bell's movie is really bad enough, and even the media in Detroit began to attack her, saying that she 'didn't solve the crisis at such an urgent juncture, but ran back to her lover to enjoy it, weak and incompetent'. Wabbon struggled to clean up the locker room and didn't have the energy to pay attention to the pressing, which reporters saw as acquiescence and began to denounce Bale's incompetence.

The only good news is that with three straight wins in March, Hua Ben has saved up 540 points with an average of 28 points, 14 rebounds and 4 blocks per game, so that he is once again qualified to absorb master-level skills. At the same time, with these data, Huaben was voted the best of the week in the East for the first time. It just so happens that last week's Western Conference Weekly Champion was Timberwolves boss Garnett, who also led the team to a three-game winning streak, averaging 25 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 blocks per game.

This match between the Pistons and the Timberwolves is the last time they meet this season, the last time at the Pistons' home court, the Timberwolves bloodied the Pistons, and Huaben was successfully beaten by Garnett. For the Pistons, this game is a battle of revenge and cannot afford to lose.

For the NBA, this game is considered a preview of the Finals, although Rashid's prospects with the Pistons are not optimistic, but they have won the first place in the East after all, and they are currently hitting the second place in the East, and it is likely that they will represent the East in the Finals in June. Needless to say, the Timberwolves have been called their best season for the championship, with two wins against the Lakers and one win and one loss against the Spurs.

"Don't be disturbed by the outside world, let's go to the hotel to rest later, and then go to the target center stadium for training after lunch, remember, no one is allowed to be late." Brown told the players before they got off the plane that the latter sentence was the first time he had uttered it, and that he never said that nonsense until Rashid arrived.

But it seems that what Brown said was also in vain, and Rashid was lazily huddled in his seat, with a DV headset in his ear, shaking his head and not knowing what he was listening to.

As soon as I left the airport, the waiting reporters gathered - usually no reporters in the regular season will block the team before the game, but this time the Timberwolves vs. Pistons game was so hyped that TNT even decided to broadcast it live in the United States, so when the Pistons players set foot on Minnesota soil, they became dishes on the media plate.

Before boarding the bus, dozens of reporters revolved around the players, asking readers about topics that would be of interest to readers:

For example, a professional reporter will ask, "Ben, what do you think of the Timberwolves?" They've had the best record in the West, and what tactics did Mr. Brown teach you to use against Garnett? Cassel thinks your forward position is a sieve, how would you answer him? ”

Hua Ben ignored the reporters and walked forward with a smile.

There was also a reporter who came to stir up trouble, and when he caught Rashid, he asked, "Rashid, it is said that you are now the captain of the Pistons, right?" What is the difference between the Pistons and Trail Blazers' locker rooms? Where do you prefer? ”

Rashid seemed interested in this kind of question, but he wasn't an idiot, and the answer was vague: "Whoever helps the team the most is the captain, the dressing room doesn't make a difference, it's all wardrobes and stools, if you ask me what I like more, I prefer Detroit because here we are united, a lot of people like me, a lot of the little guys expect me to teach them more offensive tools, they support me." ”

As soon as Rashid said this, the reporters were immediately excited, and they could hear the provocation in his words after a little speculation.

"Idiot." Wabbon kept smiling and whispered, and Billups and Mirisic spat out the same words, although Mirisic didn't want to challenge Rashid's authority in the locker room, but if he wanted to rob the boss, he would be the first to refuse.

"Ben, Miss Bell has become the poison of Hollywood, and many directors have claimed that they will not use her for the show, what do you think about this? You and Miss Bell are indulging in tenderness and do you realize that what she needs now is acting training rather than physical pleasure? A reporter sharply posed the question.

As soon as Hua Ben heard this, the blue tendons on his forehead collapsed, he wanted to hold back the scolding **, but he didn't hold back, and spit on the reporter: "Idiot, this is a basketball game, not an Okapu talk show scene!" ”

In the midst of all the difficulties of the reporters, they finally squeezed into the bus, arrived at the King Minneapolis Hotel, took a hot bath, and began to study another trouble. On March 1, Wabbon received an email from his eldest brother, James Wallace, saying that their mother's birthday was about to be, and asking him if he could find time to celebrate his mother's birthday.

Hua Ben did not inherit Big Ben's memories and feelings, and he had an instinctive resistance to this strange family, he had a mother, and his mother was in a rural cottage across the world. However, he couldn't ignore his brothers' hearts, and in the two months since he arrived in the NBA, he has received many letters from his family, including a handwritten letter from his mother congratulating him on his All-Star starter honor.

During the all-star period, Hua Ben almost never contacted his relatives after arranging a hotel for them, and he didn't know what to say in the face of those strange faces.

Lying on the bed and thinking for a while, Huaben considered and replied to an email, telling him that the titular eldest brother would definitely go as long as time permitted, and at the same time remitted half a million dollars to his mother's account, which had not been transferred to him for fifteen million dollars in the first year of the Hummer, and now he did not have a lot of money in his account.

After lunch, Warben called Mirisic and Billups to the Timberwolves' home center, and when he arrived at half past one in the afternoon, Brown's face began to look ugly: only 12 of the 15 training players arrived, and Rashid and two players who had just been promoted from the NBDL did not come.

Campbell, who was the last to leave the hotel, explained: "I went to check the rooms, all the rooms were empty, maybe Rashid went shopping?" Or maybe he had relatives in Minneapolis to see him. ”

Brown Tie blushed and nodded to show that he knew, and he waved his hand to take Hua Ben to warm up while he stood at the door of the training hall and waited.

It wasn't until the end of the first wave of training camps of Huaben and others that Rashid walked into the stadium with two newcomers swaggeringly at about half past two.

"Didn't I tell you about the training time?" Brown asked the three of them coldly.

Thank you for the reward from Brother Metatron.,Hehe.,It seems that the outbreak is really more profitable.,Brother Magic Dragon said that the second more of the celebration was delivered! The next two more, there will be in the evening, the fat paper does what it says, dear, the rich money field has no money to hold the people, recommended and collected this is a very important thing!
