Chapter 462 460. God Said: Let There Be Light

I don’t know if it’s the luck of the league or the misfortune of the Eagles. The three games between the Eagles and the Philadelphia 76ers this season have all been rescheduled after December, and they played against the Nets four times, and three times after December. It's time for the Hawks to recover and be in shape.

In this way, the game is good, but the Eagles are in pain!

There are three remaining games against the 76ers and the Nets twice.

And, it's coming soon.

The Eagles will have a schedule of nine days and six games. At the beginning, it will be a back-to-back home game of five days and four games. On February 3 and 4, the Eagles will face back-to-back challenges from the 76ers and the Nets.

...

After Liu Mang finished his training in the morning, he went to Chinatown with Levia, Alexia, and Dinah at noon to buy some things that can be bought for the New Year. Of course, there is Dinah's favorite red envelope.

When I returned to my new home at ten o'clock in the morning, the invited chef had already arrived and started preparing for lunch.

Today is New Year's Eve in China, and the time in the United States is about 12 hours later than in China. When Liu Mang returned home, he turned on the TV to watch the familiar faces of the Spring Festival Gala on Chaoting International Channel.

Sure enough, the Spring Festival Gala at the beginning of the century and at the end of the last century was interesting, unlike the Spring Festival Gala in the future, which was forced to come together after the old artists had no new tricks. Some sketches made Liu Mang laugh out loud.

Alexia is helping in the kitchen and has the idea of ​​learning craftsmanship. Levia is arranging the dining room and arranging some things. Dinah and Liu Mang are watching the Spring Festival Gala together. Although Dinah has also learned Chinese, but for the domestic Some stalks in the sketch, I couldn’t understand the jokes in it, which made the little Lori very depressed, and then went to prepare things with Levia.

After 11 o'clock, the Eagles teammates came one after another. Except for Kevin Wesley and Danny Ferry who didn't want to join the crowd of young people, the other 13 teammates came, as well as the team's trainer. Moron Wiley, Coach Kruger and his newly adopted son Jimmy Jr.

I just moved to a new house, and I don’t know what books the girls read about the customs of certain places in China. They also wanted to hold a housewarming party. Originally, they invited Price, the owner of the Eagles, but Price wanted to save money. The All-Star Weekend, which will start in less than two weeks, is so busy that there is no time to come.

Liu Mang also broke free from his obsession with watching the Spring Festival Gala, took his teammates to visit his new home, invited them to a restaurant for a drink first, or to eat barbecue brought by the chef in advance, etc.

Although it is the Chinese New Year in China, do as the Romans do, the meals prepared today are American Chinese or Western food, and the famous "Chinese chef" in Atlanta is specially invited.

Raheem was the last one because he was going to pick up Iverson who had just arrived at the hotel in Atlanta.

The 76ers have arrived in Atlanta today to prepare for tomorrow's game.

They were all acquaintances, and I showed them the stadium, the gym, and the empty swimming pool in their new home, etc. It was soon lunch time.

How to reflect the importance of a player to a team is a privilege! Today, the Eagles specially took a day off for Liu Mang's "housewarming banquet".

It can be regarded as giving the players a rest. We just played 8 games in 14 days, and then we will have 6 games in 9 days. Although pre-match preparation is very important, you have to prepare for 6 games in 9 days, and you can’t prepare for anything. Famous, if the string is stretched too tight, it will easily break.

However, not to drink too much alcohol is the only requirement of Coach Kruger. After lunch, a group of people ignored the cold winter and moved the billiard table directly from the warehouse on the first floor where there are things that may be commonly used, and started to play. Nock gambling game, the playing method is weird, Liu Mang has never heard of it or seen it, it uses poker cards such as king, king and 2-7 to mess up the lottery. The number of balls, the big and small kings are the magic cards, you can freely choose the number of balls, and then others bet, if you hit the right ball, you will win money, you can choose to pass or continue to draw lots, if you hit the wrong ball, you will lose money, and then pass... Recently Coach Kruger in a good mood also made a small gamble.

Liu Mang was not interested in this kind of thing, mainly because he felt cold after standing outside and watching them play once...

As the "hostesses", Levia and Alexia were in charge of getting drinks and food. Dinah was watching the replay of the Spring Festival Gala. She wanted to understand why Liu Mang laughed so hard.

Liu Mang was bored, so he just wandered around at home. When he walked to the backyard, he saw little Jimmy holding a basketball and shooting.

Seeing this scene, Liu Mang was shocked decisively, and came to the sidelines and said, "Hey, little Jimmy, are you interested in basketball?"

Who knows, little Jimmy shook his head: "I'll give it a try, I'm too thin and short to play basketball."

"..." Liu Mang was speechless. Is this still the iron man whose body has just become like iron seven or eight years later, even Thibodeau can hold it in a daze.

You have to break this little guy back! It may be because Coach Kruger adopted Jimmy Jr., which gave him a better life, but it also caused Jimmy Jr. to not rely on basketball to train himself because of the hard life in the next year. Later, he was discovered by a basketball coach in Los Angeles. Of course, Little Jimmy was adopted a year early, which must be a good thing, better than him living on the street, sleeping in a cold security booth every night.

Now that Liu Mang saw Jimmy, it wasn't that he didn't see Jimmy's desire for the basket, but he also saw the obvious words "I can't do it" in Jimmy's eyes.

Such an inspirational figure cannot be "ruined" just because of my own appearance! Although a person with hard work and backbone can do everything well, and may really become an excellent coder, Liu Mang still wants to see that person who enters the NBA with the 30th pick in the first round and beats the doubles. The No. 1 pick became the core of the team, Jimmy Butler, who led the team to the playoffs.

"Little Jimmy, how do you know if you don't try?" Liu Mang's voice was full of charm...

"If you don't try it, how do you know if you can do it? You like basketball! If you like it, try it! Look at this villa, look at this yard and this basketball court, you want to use your own hands Create it! It’s impossible to be a coder, come on! Little Jimmy, you only started studying in the second half of the year, right? Give it a try in the first half of the year. Train with our team and strengthen your body. Even if you If you can't play basketball, don't become a weak person who gets bullied..."

At this moment, little Jimmy seemed to see the light on Liu Mang's head, and spread his wings behind his back...

Coach Kruger just lost money and fled. He wanted to see where little Jimmy went, and happened to see Little Jimmy looking at Liu Mang's "speech" with adoring eyes.

At this moment, Coach Kruger seemed to see the "Godfather"...
