I just play ball

Chapter 156
Li Yue knows that although the word "brother" is often used on the lips in black culture, which is equivalent to "old iron" in Chinese vocabulary, Durant's Twitter star comes from the heart, and even fools can see it. Being able to come out is definitely not just talking casually, it naturally means that the two have a very close relationship.

Kupchak also revealed that Iguodala has that kind of concern because Kobe will have a long truce due to injury next season, and he is worried that he will not be able to control the locker room, and thus will not be able to properly lead the team to achieve results.

Now this kind of worry has completely disappeared, and the Lakers are in the leading position in the chase. Li Yue believes that he should take advantage of the trend and not wait for the free market to open, so as to nip possible accidents in the bud in advance.

After making up his mind, Li Yue said, "If possible, we should take this opportunity to meet with Gao Iguodala and put aside our competitors. Do you understand me?"

When Kupchak heard this, he rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then nodded again and again: "You can send an invitation in your personal name..."

"It's best to meet by chance," Li Yue waved his hand, "From a lot of information, he doesn't like being too strong."

"Then I'll find someone to check to see if he will participate in a public event in Los Angeles in the next few days." Kupchak said, "At that time, I will find a relationship to get you in and start recruiting in advance."

"Just do it like this!" Li Yue hiccupped suddenly, turned and walked to the bathroom, "I'll think about how to do it first."

"It's best not to drink too much." Kupchak left with a smile.

After Li Yue took a shower, he ran to continue searching and preparing some materials, but he couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only go to bed first.

...

At noon on the 28th, the Lakers finished draft-related work and took the opportunity to return to Los Angeles.

Li Yue made up for sleep all the way, and woke up only after the plane landed at the airport. It was already eight o'clock in the evening.

Go back to the apartment, boil the chicken, and sit in front of the computer to check emails while waiting.

The Nike team informed that the number of personal signature shoes has exceeded 20 pairs, and they are stepping up work.

Taylor informed that the Ellen Show invited him to record the program, the theme was various interesting things about Chinese people in Los Angeles, and he probably talked about cultural differences. In addition, he also received several endorsements, including Panda Express, which offered 4 million US dollars for 400 years. offer.

Li Yue replied that he would wait until the Lakers' free market is settled before arranging his daily routine, and then he logged on to Twitter to browse the news.

Since the Lakers selected Gobert, the whole world knew that Howard would definitely leave Los Angeles, and the topic of discussing his upcoming stop became a hot topic, generating more than 20 tweets.

[Bill Simmons: Although the Lakers won the championship this season, it has once again proved that they cannot form a twin star or a Big Three model, because Los Angeles is the birthplace of Hollywood, and its special city attributes are destined to only have one player enjoying all the focus Eyes, such as Kobe and O'Neal, Li Yue and Howard. 】

This statement seems to make sense at first glance, but after a little scrutiny, it is known that this is a hint that big-name free agents should never join the Lakers.

Li Yue was quite upset about this, and he should ignore it according to his past habits, but considering that he is pursuing Iguodala fiercely, if he doesn't explain it, it is very likely to cause unnecessary negative effects after the self-media makes a fuss.

If you have this idea, forward the comment immediately.

[Dear Mr. Bill Simmons, I personally hate the name Gemini or the Big Three, because it ignores the hard work of other players. We will be a 13-man team, regardless of the data. An important part of the team, everyone will fight for it, please word it properly in the future. 】

After posting the first article, Li Yue continued to edit the second article.

[As for the special city attributes you mentioned, it is because you may not know much about Los Angeles. This is indeed the birthplace of Hollywood, and it is also the hometown of many ordinary fans. They pay attention to the Lakers team, and they may like someone in particular by the way. , but definitely not ignoring other players the way you do, as will soon be proven. 】

After editing, send it directly, followed by the third article.

[You also imply that Howard and I cannot coexist peacefully, that is absolutely wrong, please @德默特Howard prove that this statement is pure nonsense, there is no personal conflict between us. 】

Three consecutive tweets were sent out, which quickly received many comments, and became a hot topic in just half an hour#李越Invited Howard to prove himself. Did Bill Simmons say anything wrong? #
Many fans participated in it, and Durant was the first NBA player to forward it.

[I don’t know about the other Lakers players, but my brother @李越 is definitely a good guy, you have to trust me! 】

Surprisingly, Scarlett Johansson immediately retweeted Durant.

[I believe this, @李越 is helpful, thank you for paying for our group of ladies last night. 】

Li Yue suddenly laughed out loud. Last night's consumption was actually paid by Durant, and he earned a good reputation for nothing, but now is not the time to explain, and he can use it as his own character to counterattack by default.

Soon, Li Yue noticed that with the help of two people, a large number of netizens joined him.

Bill Simmons replied very unwillingly and wrote: "You surprised me very much. It took only three months to make a good brother and even establish a good relationship with a big star. I underestimated you."

Responding in this way is both suspected of changing the subject and a sign of begging for mercy.

Sure enough, some people soon began to question why he called Durant a brother so soon.

Li Yue didn't give an explanation, and decided to accept it as soon as it was good. Anyway, the wind of public opinion has turned to the favorable side.

Just as he was about to get up to fish the chicken in the pot, Howard actually updated his Twitter to respond.

[In the past season, I had a very fulfilling life with the Lakers. I came back early due to injury, worked with my teammates on tactics, played in the playoffs, and finally won the championship.I still say the same thing as before, the relationship between Li Yue and I is very good, there is no personal conflict between us, please don't believe in rumors, don't spread rumors, and be happy every day. 】

Seeing this tweet, Li Yue knew that he had won. He immediately liked and forwarded it without making any comments. He wanted to ask Bill Simmons to make a theory, but found that the other party had deleted the tweet and pretended nothing happened.

Li Yue didn't get entangled, and really got up to fish for the beef, ready to cut into pieces and eat with cold salad.

Just after cutting and setting the plates, the phone rang, so I had to answer it hands-free, and Kupchak's voice suddenly came out.

"Did you know? Just now, I have received four calls. The agents of players such as Carl Landry and Darren Collison have expressed their intention to talk to us after the free market opens!"

"Good thing!" Li Yue clenched his fist excitedly, and with Howard himself coming forward to refute the rumors, everything is alright!
