The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 19
In the training hall, the players who came earlier gathered together to chat.

Zhang Xiaotian was preparing to warm up, when Ginobili who just came in held two newspapers and pulled Parker to read them with a smirk on his face, causing Parker to shake his head.

"Come here, you two." Ginobili waved to Zhang Xiaotian and Nando De Colo.

Zhang Xiaotian's eyes were sharp, and he saw the picture on the Internet in a newspaper, and it was the moment when he shouted at Nando de Colo.

Shouting at teammates, internal strife, destroying the team's scope in order to stay on the team, these keywords added together, Zhang Xiaotian really admired the reporter's imagination, he is not a big star, why do you black him.

However, there are also many people who praise him, and there is even a report whose degree of exaggeration has surpassed that of the media on the other side of the ocean. If he is really that good, he will not lose the election.

Needless to say, the two newspapers in Ginobili's hands are definitely representatives of the two extremes.

Ginobili said in a strange tone, "Zhang, how dare you yell at Tony's little brother, he plans to teach you a lesson."

During this period of time, everyone got to know each other a lot, and other people gathered around after hearing the news. Players with stable positions in the team couldn’t help but joke about Zhang Xiaotian and Nando De Colo. Rookies and marginalized people are envious of the opportunity to show their faces.

At the entrance of the training hall, the head coach Popovich appeared, looking at the booing people with a sharp look.

With his back to the gate, Duncan sensed the situation, and immediately said with a stern face on his hips, "Why don't you put away the newspapers? The old man often teaches us not to stare at the newspapers and the Internet. We must train hard and not be influenced by media reports. .”

He pointed to Zhang Xiaotian and Nando De Colo, "You two, go and organize the training equipment, it will be used soon."

Parker shook his head, and whispered a few words to Nando De Colo.

A new day of training begins like this. No one dares to slack off. In professional basketball, attitudes are often linked to money, and no one will have trouble with money.

After a day of training, Zhang Xiaotian rushed to the cafe not far from the arena.

The address that Yang Feiyu sent just now, it seems that college students are much more leisurely than him.

The cafe is not big, but it is decorated very delicately, which should be the style that girls like.

Yang Feiyu's appearance should be very eye-catching, Zhang Xiaotian glanced around, but he couldn't find where the other party was.

Seeing him standing there stupidly, the waiter came over, and a beautiful girl on the seat beside the bed suddenly waved to him.

His long black hair fell straight down, and his clever eyes seemed to be able to speak. Zhang Xiaotian suddenly felt a thumping feeling. It seems that because of his genes, he prefers oriental beauties.

Wait, those exquisite facial features seem a little familiar, could it be Yang Feiyu.

The other party was a little impatient, and he hurried over. She was really a confused girl. Zhang Xiaotian remembered a sentence, hairstyle can change life.

"This is Carla, my roommate."

At this time, Zhang Xiaocai discovered that there was a blonde girl beside Yang Feiyu, she looked like a typical western girl, she had a slightly thick frame, but she was also a beauty because she should be big.

Zhang Xiaotian is not the kind of idiot who can't get on the stage, just a little surprised, he politely extended his hand to say hello, "Hello, I'm Zhang Xiaotian."

The basketball player is tall and has no fat, Zhang Xiaotian is definitely in line with the public's aesthetics.

After shaking with Kara, he reached out to shake with Yang Feiyu again.

As soon as the hands of the two touched, Yang Feiyu suddenly felt her heart beat faster. She just gave it a light touch, and then quickly sat back, muttering: "What kind of hands are you holding? You are already a member of the society."

Kara's eyes are still red now, Zhang Xiaotian doesn't know why Yang Feiyu called Kara over, he can't help now, he feels a little embarrassed.

Thinking about it carefully, he doesn't even know where Eddie lives. It seems that he has to pay attention to the manager's affairs.

He ordered some food first to prevent the atmosphere from getting weird.

At this time, he suddenly received a signal, and the number was very strange.

"I'm Eddie, and this is my new number. You performed very well in yesterday's game. I'll help you follow up on the contract. You just wait to become an official member of the Spurs. I'll help you with your activities. It is not necessarily the main force.”

This guy actually changed his number. The first half of the message looked so touching, but the second half of it just faded away with the wind. Zhang Xiaotian had no problem with his intelligence, so he wouldn't believe Eddie's fooling around.

However, the information came in a timely manner, Zhang Xiaotian quickly replied and asked Eddie to come to the coffee shop to discuss.

After he sent the message, he gave Yang Feiyu a look, and the girl immediately gave her a thumbs up.

After a while, they watched Eddie drive up in his second-hand car through the window.

Zhang Xiaotian got up and left through the back door of the cafe, hiding his achievements and fame.

The next day, the Spurs played their third preseason game against the visiting Denver Nuggets.

In this game, the Spurs resumed their starting game in the first game, and the Nuggets are also all the main players.

The old Stone Buddha made consecutive hits in the opening game. Although the half-orc Kenneth Farid was strong in defense, he was not tall enough to limit Duncan at all.

But the Nuggets adjusted in time, and the replaced Corey Brewer and Timofey Mozgov both made consecutive hits and caught up the score again.

The main players of the Spurs played for a long time today, Ginobili didn't play again, and the first chances during the rotation were Gary Neal and Stephen Jackson.

In the second quarter, the young Nuggets played more and more fiercely. JaVale McGee succeeded in dunking and Danilo Gallinari led the score with a three-pointer.

Zhang Xiaotian had been waiting for the coach to call his name, but Popovich didn't even look at him.

In the second half of the second quarter, Duncan was replaced again, and Shi Fu was old and strong. In addition, today's free throws were not bad, and the score was brought back.

Throughout the first half, Zhang Xiaotian sat on the bench all the time.

He didn't know what was going on. He wanted to ask Leonard during the halftime break, but today Leonard was very depressed when he was guarded by Andre Iguodala. Zhang Xiaotian had to hold back.

In the second half, the advantages of the Nuggets' excellent athletic ability were fully displayed. Iguodala and McGee staged consecutive dunks, and the Spurs fell behind to double digits.

But at this time, the old martial arts saint Stephen Jackson, who came off the bench, scored consecutive points and led the team to chase the score back. After scoring a goal, he glanced at the bench provocatively. Povich was dissatisfied and still despised Zhang Xiaotian, a small character who robbed the rotation time.

It's just that whether the score is leading or falling behind, Popovich always sits firmly on the Diaoyutai. In the fourth quarter, he simply replaced all the substitutes, but Zhang Xiaotian was not there. Zhang Xiaotian finally couldn't sit still.
