Min Congda didn't lie when he said this.

The NBA did have a "Smart Rule" that prohibits Min from eating snacks and drinks on the sidelines of the NBA court.

The main purpose is to prevent the goods from being thrown at the referee, causing unnecessary casualties to the referee.

At the same time, the NBA also believes that Min Congda did this mainly because he has mania.

This is a mental illness, and once he gets sick, Min Congda has to go to a psychiatrist for medical treatment.

Therefore, Min Congda said that it was for his own health, and there was no problem.

Yang Ruosi was confused, how can the NBA still have such rules?

Will a team general manager be banned from eating popcorn and drinking Coke on the sidelines?

It's funny, it's just so funny.

Yang Ruosi is not very interested in basketball, but she is naturally smart and has a strong personality, she comes out with friends to watch the game, and she is not willing to just watch the excitement without knowing anything.

I met Min Congda yesterday, had a brief chat, and felt that this person was very special.

After coming to the United States for more than a month, the biggest unaccustoming thing for Yang Ruosi is that he feels that the people here always seem to be shrouded in a veil, communicating with them, as if he is talking to NPCs, and everyone has fixed functions and routines.

Lin Yu is an exception, but she was born and raised in the United States, and there is no shadow of Chinese.

This may be the disadvantage of being in a foreign country, even if she is very fluent in English, her thinking and soul are still Chinese, and she can't really fit into it.

Min Congda was different, Yang Ruosi thought that this would be an American elite with a Chinese face, the kind of nasty ghost who would pop out eight English words in three sentences even if he spoke Chinese.

As a result, what he spoke in Mandarin was called an authentic way, which made Yang Ruosi feel very cordial.

And he doesn't seem to have much desire to talk about his work, basketball, etc., but instead asks a lot about domestic things.

Yang Ruosi asked him how long he hadn't been back, Min Congda said that it had been a long, long time, and then changed the topic.

He seems to be hiding something, he has obviously lived in China for a long time, and he should have been born and raised in China.

It's just that he doesn't want to talk about his background.

When we met again today, Yang Ruo thought that understanding basketball was one thing, and being interested in Min Congda was another, so he kept looking for words to ask Min Congda.

She didn't want her questions to sound too stupid, so she watched the game very carefully and asked thoughtful questions.

Basketball is not a complicated game, to put it bluntly, it is just 10 people in two teams throwing the ball into the basket to score, and whoever has the most points wins the game.

Yang Ruosi looked at it and found that the game was still quite interesting.

And the NBA is the highest level of basketball in the world.

The speed, power, and skill of the players on the field are top-notch.

Even people who don't know basketball at all will get their adrenaline pumping when they see 10 strong, tall people flying away and fighting fiercely.

In the second quarter of the game, when Jeremy Lin came on the court, the Clippers also replaced Anthony Davis and Dragic early.

The second line-up of the two sides began to fight against each other, and the attack on both sides was wave after wave.

When Anthony Davis jumped high in the middle of the attack and received the ball in the air and smashed it in the air, the audience erupted in huge cheers!

The Clippers' tidal wave of offense, wave after wave of slapping on the nerves of fans, dunks, three-pointers, and changing hands to layups.

They don't give the fans a respite, they don't give the Warriors a respite, they want to drown each other with offense.

Everyone in the audience was infected by the sharp offense of the Clippers, and even if the fans didn't know each other, they would high-five and celebrate a wonderful goal from the Clippers, which is the fun that basketball brings.

Yang Ruosi and Lin Yu were deeply infected, and they also cheered behind.

It's like a big drama, starting with a little dull, gradually reaching a climax, and finally a hearty victory.

There were also some twists and turns in between.

In the third quarter, the Clippers' largest lead came to 16 points.

After a timeout, Thompson and Lillard suddenly found their offensive touch.

Thompson hit three three-pointers in a row!

Lillard also made a burst shot and scored six points.

The two combined for 15 points in the space of five minutes.

The difference between the two sides went from 16 points to only 5 points.

The scene entered the tension, and the firepower of the Warriors should not be underestimated.

However, the Clippers quickly made adjustments, and they stepped up their defense after the timeout.

Tyronn Lue made an important substitution, Butler and Leonard, to increase the defensive intensity at the back.

Paul George is a starter, and his defense is very good, but George's defense has a shortcoming, which is that he is average.

His defense is more about good anticipation, great physicality, and stylistically he's not the kind of defensive mad dog.

And Butler and Leonard, these two guys can bite anyone once their strength comes up.

Butler, in particular, will do his best whenever he appears.

The Clippers' outside defensive intensity instantly went up to a new level, returning a 10-1 offensive surge for the Warriors.

The gap between the two sides was reopened, and the Warriors have not organized a decent counterattack since.

As the fourth quarter of the game came to an end, the suspense of the outcome slowly lost and the fans relaxed.

Eating, drinking, chatting, interacting with mascots, on-site staff handing out gifts, cheerleading dancing and so on.

In the end, the Clippers easily defeated the Warriors by 112-101, 11-point advantage at home, and won two in a row.

Anthony Davis came off the bench in this game, scored 21 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks, and was voted the best player of the game.

Davis's 21 points were basically eaten by eating cake, and the Clippers didn't need him to attack on his own.

Curry, Harden, each can feed the ball to him, and he is responsible for putting it to the basket.

On the court he played to his strengths, and the Warriors' David Lee and Bogut were either slow or too soft in front of him.

The whole Clippers team doesn't take credit, and they don't play for statistics, just for winning, for winning.

For such a team, it is natural to attract fans.

This game not only had an overwhelming attendance rate, but also topped the league in ratings, becoming the number one bait broadcast by TV stations.

Yang Ruosi finally experienced the excitement of American professional sports, which is indeed a big drama, which is more lively and complicated than the concerts of many stars.

And such a big drama is staged more than 1,300 times a year in the United States, which shows the love of sports in Americans.

However, what made Yang Ruosi feel strange was that the fans cheered for a hearty victory, but Min Congda, who was the general manager of the Clippers, frowned from beginning to end and did not say a word, which was a very deep feeling.

When he left the field, Yang Ruosi couldn't help but ask, "Hey, your team has won, why don't you look very happy?" ”

Min Congda said: "It's just a small victory, it's not worth being happy, the season is still long." ”

"But no matter how long the season is, it is also a game by game, a victory and a victory accumulation, you should be happy."

"Probably... Maybe I'm used to it, this level of winning is just a trivial matter. ”

"You lie, I don't think you're happy, you're so strange, the team is not happy to win."

Min Congda seemed to have noticed some little secrets by Yang Ruosi, he made a fool of himself, and said, "If you want to watch the game in the future, just look for me, what I have is a ticket, and they are all very good seats." ”

Yang Ruosi said: "Actually, it's enough to watch the game, I don't have so much time to watch the game, there is a lot of homework in school, and I just came to relax and experience it today." ”

Min Congda thought to himself, you still served it, do you know that there are some tickets that you can't buy if you want to?

"Don't regret it, my ticket is very expensive. Some games, like this one, where the front row is close to the player's bench, can sell $2,000 for a ticket, are you sure you don't want it? ”

Hearing Min Congda say this, Yang Ruosi stuck out his tongue, he didn't expect the ticket to be so expensive?

She rolled her eyes and didn't pretend, and said, "Okay, I'll accept your kindness." But I'll pay it back, maybe... It may not be worth $2,000, but it certainly won't be bad either. Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you. ”

Min Congda smiled, thinking that she was quite straightforward.

Generally, if a girl hears that something from the other party is very valuable, she will often refuse to accept it.

First, to avoid suspicion, and secondly, they all understand that the gifts are often marked with a price and will be returned later.

Yang Ruosi also understood, but she boldly poked her words out and didn't want to hide them.

She wasn't such a person before, she would be humble, measured, and refuse.

Maybe she has been hiding for too long in the United States for more than a month.

When you meet a Chinese who can speak, simply don't hide it, just say what you need to say.

Or, Min Congda is special enough that she can't refuse.

When she went back in the evening, Ada drove Min Congda home, and on the way, Ada could see that she had a lot of questions.

Who was that girl, how did they meet, what were they talking about?

Especially what the two were talking about, Ida couldn't understand at all.

Obviously, she was next to Min Congda, but when they talked, she acted as if she didn't exist.

I can't listen to it, I can't plug it in, not to mention how uncomfortable it feels.

But the forbearance of traditional Italian women, as well as the positioning of their own identity, made Ida ask nothing.

The two of them were just superiors and subordinates, and for so long, Min Congda had never done anything wrong with her.

Not even a damn sexual harassment, it's really damn.

On the other side, Yang Ruosi, who returned to school, also had Ada's figure floating in his heart.

Although from beginning to end, she didn't say a word of greeting to this Italian beauty.

She has always been by Min Congda's side, and Min Congda said that this is his personal secretary.

Personal secretary, this position sounds ambiguous, and people can't help but think about it.

What is the relationship between the two?

Yang Ruosi has the impression that Americans have always been very open.

It's normal for a high-powered team general manager like Min Congda, a social celebrity, to have one or two beautiful secretaries who have a close relationship, right?

That's right, it's really normal, but Yang Ruosi just feels that it's not a taste in her heart.

So, a few days later, she sent an email to Min Congda, saying that she hoped to ask for two tickets to the Clippers game.

She wanted to watch the game with Lin Yu and return her last invitation.

At the same time, she said that she also brought a gift and hoped that Min Congda would also come.

During this time, the Clippers won consecutive games without encountering any opponents.

They first made an expedition to Portland, where they easily routed the Trail Blazers at the Moda Center.

Roy was completely crushed by injuries in the summer, and the Trail Blazers chose to buy Roy.

And Oden was completely destroyed by injuries and could no longer hold out hope.

The Trailblazers can only rebuild with Ade as the core.

How could they be a strong opponent for the Clippers, who easily won three in a row.

Then the Clippers returned to their home court and beat the Hawks to make it four wins in a row.

In the fifth game, which is the game that Yang Ruosi watched, the Clippers will face the Lakers on the road.

The much-anticipated Los Angeles derby.

At one point, the price of the breakout ticket for the game was as high as $3,000.

Min Congda couldn't get a seat on the sidelines, after all, tonight was the home court of the Lakers, so he simply got a VIP box on the top floor.

"I'm really sorry to let you spend money on a VIP box, in fact, an ordinary seat is fine."

Yang Ruosi and Lin Yu came to the VIP private room, obviously a little embarrassed.

"You can, but I can't. Sit down, and if you want to eat anything, you're welcome. ”

Anschutz is the big boss of the Stamp Center, and Min Congda wants to get a VIP box very easily.

Yang Ruosi took out a large paper bag from the bag he was carrying, handed it to Min Congda, and said, "Give it to you." ”

Min Congda took the paper bag and saw that it was a lot of vacuum-packed hot pot base?

"It's... This is your gift to me? ”

Yang Ruosi blushed and said, "Yes... yes, it's not worth much. But it's not easy to get these things, and you know that you can't buy authentic hot pot base in the United States. This is what I asked someone to boil, and I sent it across the country after it was packaged. You can't buy finished products directly, there are chicken powder and butter on the ingredient list, and U.S. Customs does not allow animal meat products to enter the customs, not even vegetarian chicken, because there are chickens. ”

She explained a lot, in fact, she wanted to show that this gift still has some value.

One of the major problems for domestic students coming to the United States is that it is difficult to eat, and the tastes of Americans are very different from those of China.

Even though Chinese restaurants are common in the United States, the taste of Chinese food here is modified and very different from authentic Chinese cuisine.

As for a diet with a heavy flavor and a lot of spices, such as hot pot, it is even more difficult to experience in the United States.

It's just that Yang Ruosi didn't expect that Min Congda would not arrange ordinary seats tonight, but such a VIP box.

In this way, the little thing she brought with her was really a bit shabby, which made her very embarrassed.

Min Congda smiled, put the things away carefully, and said, "Thank you for the gift, it's very good, I haven't eaten authentic hot pot for a long time, thank you very much." Besides, the owner of this gymnasium is my friend, and this private room doesn't cost anything, don't be embarrassed. ”

"But you are really good at picking this game, the Lakers play the Clippers, the focus battle, and the ticket price has rushed over $3,000, which is very good."

"I don't know, I just..."

Yang Ruosi didn't say, I just wanted to come and see you.

She was dressed very differently tonight than the last one.

The last time she watched the game, she wore a very ordinary outfit, a long-sleeved shirt and jeans.

Tonight, I wore a bright dark green sweater and a pleated long skirt, which seemed to be a more casual match, but it was a little sculptural.

After all, she is not the kind of little girl who is twenty-one or twelve, and she will pile herself up like a Barbie doll for dating, and her intentions are too obvious.

What made her happier was that Ada wasn't by Min Congda's side tonight.

It's a pity that she also has to take Lin Yu with her.
