The older superstars of the NBA

"Ten times the reward?"

Olajuwon was undoubtedly moved by Zhao Feiyang's proposal.But after a while, after thinking about it, he still chose to give up.

"No, Zhao, I can't do this!"

"One, I don't need that much money, and two, I don't want you to waste so much money on Adrian, it's not worth it... I've seen too many players, so I can tell..."

This time, before Olajuwon finished speaking, Zhao Feiyang interrupted him again.

"100."

"One million dollars! The condition is still one week!"

"Mr. Hakim, I know you are not short of money, but I hope you don't refuse. Adrian may be an ordinary player, but ordinary players also have the right to pursue their ideals... not only superstars To win the championship..."

Seeing Zhao Feiyang say these words and quote such a price, and it only takes a week, Olajuwon is really moved.

"I......"

"Mr. Hakim, don't worry, the price of the contract is only 5 US dollars, I will not let others misunderstand you..."

After Zhao Feiyang said this, Olajuwon finally felt relieved.

"it is good."

"In that case, I promise you."

"Tomorrow we will leave for Minneapolis. Adrian will be training with me during this week. He will not appear in the team for the time being, nor will he participate in the game...you Gotta talk to Timberwolves management..."

"Of course not a problem."

After the two had a good talk, Zhao Feiyang quickly told Adrian the news.

Adrian was simply ecstatic.

"Zhao, how did you do it? Didn't Mr. Hakim say he was unwilling?"

"Dude, don't underestimate me. Yao Ming is my hometown. With his presence, Mr. Hakim will certainly change his mind...Of course, he values ​​your tenacity more... .”

"Mr. Hakim said that although your talent is not that high, it will not affect your future performance. In the following time, he will continue to beat you, and even reprimand you deliberately. You have to remember, those are all his punishments for you. Test, in fact, he is very optimistic about you..."

At this point Olajuwon has left with his assistants.

Watching the other person's figure gradually go away, Adrian's gaze also became more tenacious.

"Zhao, don't worry! I will return the money to you!"

"Brother, thank you for everything you have done for me. Although I know you are also for the championship, our goal is the same...I will always remember your help to me... "

Adrian said to Zhao Feiyang seriously.

Zhao Feiyang patted him on the shoulder with relief, "Don't think too much, what we have to do is to chase the championship with all our strength..."

Early the next morning, Zhao Feiyang and Olajuwon's team went to Minneapolis together.

Originally, the group kept confidential information quite well, especially in Minneapolis. Except for the head coach Norman Thomas, Zhao Feiyang did not mention this matter to anyone.

Therefore, no one knew exactly what Zhao Feiyang was going to do. Coach Norman said that Zhao Feiyang was going to visit an old friend in Houston, and used this excuse to prevaricate others.

However, Zhao Feiyang never expected that when he was on the plane, there happened to be a Chinese reporter not far behind him.

The other party naturally knew Zhao Feiyang, even if he didn't know Adrian, but from Adrian's height, he could tell that the other party was probably Zhao Feiyang's teammate.

As for Olajuwon, of course Chinese journalists also know him.

Therefore, under the analysis and connection of the other party, this matter gradually became clear.Especially the recent news that Dwight Howard was absent from the Timberwolves side of the game has spread, which undoubtedly deepens people's doubts about this matter.

On the night after the two parties arrived in Minneapolis, the Chinese reporter posted the press release on the Internet.

At the same time, the photos he took at the airport were exposed.

In the photo, Zhao Feiyang and Olajuwon were walking together, and then they got into the same car.

Once this news was exposed, even if there was no conclusive evidence, it immediately attracted the attention of many fans.

This time, it wasn't just the fans in Minneapolis, fans in other cities in the league were also very interested, and they ate the melons of this incident together on the Internet.

"Olajuwon went to Minneapolis? Is Zhao going to learn his dream footsteps? Oh, God! Is this guy so hard?"

"I don't think so. Zhao's playing style is different. Olajuwon's footwork is of course very good, but it doesn't necessarily suit him! It seems that he should teach other people. It is difficult for Zhao to teach Olajuwon. Please go to the Timberwolves for special training?"

"You are all wrong! I just searched, the big man next to Zhao is Adrian Ennis, he is the team's backup center... I have a bold guess, Zhao will definitely not Learning from Olajuwon's footsteps, he may have gone to Olajuwon to train this guy..."

"Great gift crab! If this is the case, what does it prove? Could it be that Zhao is already disappointed with that guy Dwight?"

"Isn't it normal to be disappointed? If you lose contact with the team and don't come to the game, such a person will not be liked anywhere, even if he was once a superstar! Isn't it true that the Timberwolves management gave him 600 million For his vacation to Minneapolis..."

The fans were talking.

The topic of Olajuwon going to Minneapolis quickly became a hot search.

This is something that Zhao Feiyang and his party did not expect at all.

When they learned that it was a Chinese reporter on the same plane who broke the news, they all felt very helpless.

"Fuck him! It's really hard to hide such a thing...Since it has happened, let's do it!"

"Zhao, help me find a place for special training, it's enough to give Adrian to me for the next week..."

Olajuwon also did not want to be disturbed by the outside world, so he lived in seclusion soon after arriving in Minneapolis.

Adrian also officially asked for leave from the team's head coach Norman Thomas, and then disappeared suddenly with Olajuwon.

At the same time, after this news continued to ferment on the Internet, it was naturally seen by Timberwolves' main center Howard.

When he heard the news for the first time, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

He opened the news page and browsed it over and over again, and even called his agent to confirm.

"Dwight, I don't know the specific situation, but I heard the wind that the backup center named Adrian did ask for leave..."

"He didn't come to the recent training, it is very likely that he went to training with Olajuwon..."

When Howard heard this, there was a very smile on his face, and the hand holding the phone trembled a little, but on the surface he still pretended to be very calm.

"Stupid behavior!"

"I also learned from Olajuwon when I was in Houston... If it is really that useful, I will not be disappointed to come to the Timberwolves now..."

"Since they're going to do this, just wait! I can't wait to see how they fail..."

After hanging up the phone, Howard still felt uncomfortable. After much consideration, he finally decided to call the head coach Norman Thomas.

"Hey."

"Coach Norman, I'm Dwight..."

"My God! Dwight, you're finally willing to call me! Young man, I'm even wondering if I'm hallucinating..."

"Coach Norman, I'm sorry I missed the game, but I have some family needs to deal with recently... I may take a period of time off, two weeks... no, one month, I will take one month fake..."

Coach Norman on the other end of the phone almost shouted.

"Are you kidding me? Dwight, you're taking a month off?"

"What the hell are you going to do?"

"I can't make decisions about such things, you'd better talk to Manager Sam!"

Coach Norman was very rude this time, and hung up the phone before Howard finished speaking.Seeing that the head coach who was polite to him in the past has changed his attitude, Howard became more and more anxious.

"no!"

"I can't give in... If I give in, they will look down on me in the future... I am a super star, a super center in the league, they should be the ones to accommodate me..."

Howard thought about it, and then called the general manager Sam Mitchell.

"Oh! Dwight? You guys are finally willing to call me! What are you doing recently? Why didn't you come to the team training? Didn't you participate in the official game?"

"Manager Sam, I have some personal matters to deal with, so I want to ask you for a month's leave..."

"Dwight, are you kidding me? You know the regular season is only a few months away? And I think you also know that if you miss too many games, your salary will be reduced a lot...Think about it How much do you lose by missing a game?"

Of course Howard was very heartbroken, but the words he said and his strong self-esteem made him only continue to persevere.

"I'm sorry too, but I really have something to attend to... Mr. Sam, I assure you, I will definitely be back in a month..."

"Please believe me..."

Of course Manager Sam refused.

After all, it is not a small matter for a superstar to ask for leave, and Howard has been involved in scandals recently, and he has not heard of anything else.

But Howard's phone call was a notification rather than an application. Therefore, in the end, Manager Sam had to be forced to agree to the matter.

"Alright alright!"

"Dwight, I still hope you can return as soon as possible...Frankly, the team signed you to compete for the championship. If you can't play your value, I'm afraid you may not be able to continue next season. Leave......"

"Man, I hope you can understand...you are indeed a superstar, but you are not in your prime, the team can tolerate you, but you can't go on like this..."
