Chapter 467 The Original Agreement

November ended up being a sweet month for the Nets.

Jokic's outstanding performance made Karl more inclined to use Lu's suggestions. The performance of young players and the recovery of the veterans gave the Nets a bit of the old-new feeling of the Spurs last season.

For the Nets this season, this may be the best model for them to complete their dynasty.

In terms of record, they have always been ahead of the Cavaliers.

But the very interesting thing is that just as the Warriors are not ranked first among the Thunder, Spurs, Mavericks, and Lakers in the Western Conference, the top ranked team in the Eastern Conference is not the Cavaliers or Nets, but the Warriors. eagle.

The Hawks, under the leadership of Budenholzer, replicated the Spurs' style of play, and also created a storm of team basketball in the East.

ESPN's face has been swollen this year, but this situation has also made the season full of uncertainties.

Whether the Nets can become a dynasty, whether the Warriors and Hawks can continue their strong momentum, whether James can lead the Cavaliers to fulfill his unfinished dream, etc., are all being discussed more and more as the season progresses.

This day is Thanksgiving, and the Nets have carried out Thanksgiving activities to give back to their fans as they have in the past.

What is a little different from last year is that Lin Ying is not alone this time. Swift and Xiao Lin Yi are also here.

Attending Thanksgiving events with the whole family is also a different kind of life experience.

Xiao Linyi is already 2 years old, and according to Chinese calculations, he is also a 3-year-old child.

He can already make some simple exchanges in a baby voice, and he has also started to be a little naughty. .

While Swift was standing behind Lin Ying, he was already walking around behind the others.

The Nets players will smile when they see it.

Lin Ying's son, even if he is only a three-year-old child, is not an ordinary person.

Xiao Linyi ended up staying behind Jokic for a long time, and then pinched the flesh on Jokic's thigh.

When Jokic saw that it was Xiao Linyi, he was not only not angry, but also smiled and greeted the little guy.

Unexpectedly, Xiaolin Yi took it one step further and jumped up to pinch Jokic's butt.

In the end, Jokic had no choice but to turn around and pick up Xiao Linyi from the ground.

After Xiao Linyi was picked up, he touched Jokic's face, and then pinched Jokic's chest...

Well, the reason why Xiaolin Yi likes Jokic has been found.

Jokic is soft and white, and feels like his mother when she pinches it.

Jokic also blushed and carried Xiao Linyi back to Swift.

But he had just returned, and Xiao Lin Yi came running over soon.

It seems that the little guy is really interested in Jokic.

The Thanksgiving activities were coming to an end. When Lin Ying was taking off his clothes, he saw Jokic holding snacks in his hand and Xiao Lin Yi sitting side by side. Sometimes he took out snacks and ate them, and sometimes he laughed happily. stop.

The two of them get along very well.

"Lin, can I go to your house occasionally?"

After the event was over, Jokic asked Lin Ying.

When he said this, he also looked at Xiao Linyi.

It seems like I was having fun with the little guy.

"sure."

Lin Ying readily agreed.

He and Swift are usually busy, and they wish someone could play with Xiao Linyi.

Moreover, Jokic has a cheerful personality, so it would be beneficial to play with Xiaolin Yi.

Hearing Lin Ying agreed, Jokic couldn't hide the joy on his face.

In addition to playing with Xiao Lin Yi, this is also an opportunity for him to get in touch with Lin Ying in his life.

Oh, Bradley has been thrown away by him N positions!

…

On the second day of Thanksgiving, Lin Ying received a call from Su Feng.

Yang Shuyi returned to the United States.

"She's done with her career."

The injury she suffered at the London Olympics still affected her development.

Although she failed to play in the WNBA in the end, she has also played in the next-level league in the past two years, which can be regarded as fulfilling her dream of professional basketball.

After hanging up the phone with Su Feng, Lin Ying went to talk to Swift about Yang Shuyi.

Since the playoffs last season, due to Deron's decline in form, he has taken on more responsibilities and his body has felt very tired.

During this time, he also found some other physical therapists, but the results were not good.

If Yang Shuyi comes back, he wants to invite her back.

After all, the two of them had signed an agreement back then. If Yang Shuyi did not pursue a career, Lin Ying would let her continue to be his physical therapist.

This can be regarded as fulfilling the original contract.

Of course, the premise is that Yang Shuyi is willing.

Moreover, Yang Shuyi probably suffered a lot in Europe in the past two years. Lin Ying should also visit her when she comes back.

"Go ahead. If she is willing to come back, remember to give her double her salary."

Swift is warm.

At first, she felt that Yang Shuyi had a crush on Lin Ying, but she didn't tell her, and she was also very kind to the little girl.

Her view of love has always been like this. Others can't take away what belongs to her, and there's no point in forcing someone to keep someone who doesn't belong.

Moreover, Lin Ying greeted her before going, which in itself was a kind of trust between husband and wife.

…

After Lin Ying arrived in Houston, she received a call from Su Feng.

Su Feng also learned more about Yang Shuyi's other situations.

Her parents started an investment business in the past two years, but they lost a lot of money due to bad luck.

Tang Tian's Chinese medicine clinic was given to his apprentice, and he is currently hospitalized due to poor health.

Doctors can heal people, but often cannot heal themselves.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ying's mood was a bit complicated.

After he had his own life, he didn't pay much attention to Yang Shuyi's situation. Maybe Yang Shuyi's career in the past two years was not entirely based on a dream.

In a coffee shop in Houston, Lin Ying met Yang Shuyi again.

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment when he saw Yang Shuyi.

The face is still the same, but it doesn't seem to be the same face.

In just two years, time has left its mark on her face.

The little girl back then seemed to have grown up all of a sudden.

It seems that her experience in Europe over the past two years has not been easy.

But Lin Ying quickly reacted.

He himself is 26 years old and will be 27 soon. He thought of her as a little girl at first, but she is only one year younger than him. Now she is 25 and will be 26 soon.

In the past, I didn't feel the age change because we were in constant contact with each other. Now that we are separated and meet again, I will naturally feel the change.

"You've become beautiful."

Lin Ying thought about many opening lines, but this was the one that blurted out in the end.

"You might as well say I'm getting old."

Yang Shuyi replied.

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Out of sight.

Although she seems to have matured a lot, the little girl's personality is still the same as before.

And this way of speaking brought the distance between the two people much closer.

They sat down, ordered coffee, and then chatted about the past two years.

Lin Ying has led a colorful life, winning two championships in Brooklyn and proposing and marrying Swift.

Yang Shuyi's words are relatively monotonous. In Europe, she basically lives alone.

"I'm a master of fighting now."

Yang Shuyi said and made some gestures.

When she first went to Europe, she was harassed by some people because of her long hair. The police in Europe also solved the problem peacefully.

Later, she changed her hair back to short hair, and also learned a lot of women's self-defense techniques. They were real self-defense techniques, not gangster excitement techniques.

Lin Ying looked at Yang Shuyi and smiled, but couldn't help it.

This sounds interesting, but the actual experience is more sad.

"What are your plans when you come back?"

Lin Ying asked next.

"I haven't decided yet. There are many things to choose from. Become a basketball coach at the university, go to my grandpa's Chinese medicine clinic, or teach women self-defense?"

Yang Shuyi's mentality is quite good.

"How about continuing to be my physical therapist?"

Lin Ying said.

"Are you asking me to fulfill my original contract?"

Yang Shuyi said with a smile.

When Lin Ying heard this, he knew that Yang Shuyi was not against this.

"When you say that, I'm going to go back and look through that contract sample."

When they said this, both of them laughed in unison.

They should all remember the scene when they signed this contract.

Winter, hot pot, Sprite, things happened a long time ago.

"We should go eat hot pot."

Lin Ying suddenly spoke.

"Let's go? As long as you have no problem, I will definitely still like hot pot."

Yang Shuyi wiped her saliva as she spoke. She probably hadn't eaten for a long time.

"Walk!"

As they talked, the two went to find a hot pot restaurant nearby.

Houston has Chinatown, so it’s very convenient to have a hot pot meal.

The two of them ate very enthusiastically.

November is when the temperature drops sharply, and there is nothing more enjoyable than eating hot pot.

While eating hot pot, Lin Ying and Yang Shuyi talked about the salary of physical therapists.

The salary he gave to the top physical therapist in the NBA was only slightly lower than that of Kobe Bryant's physical therapist Situ Minyi.

Lin Ying knew that Yang Shuyi should be short of money now, so this should be the most useful thing as long as Yang Shuyi does not resist.

And there is no need to think about giving money directly. Yang Shuyi's character will definitely not agree to it.

"Then go try it."

Yang Shuyi picked up the Sprite in her hand and clinked glasses with Lin Ying.

Even so, I won it.

Lin Ying felt that his body became lighter.

He knew Yang Shuyi's skills, and he instantly felt that the following seasons became easier.

…

Yang Shuyi has indeed matured a lot, and a very specific manifestation of this is that in addition to going to competitions with the team, she will receive physical therapy at Lin Ying's home in Brooklyn.

This is because I don’t want Swift to think too much, even though Swift doesn’t think much about it at all.

Then the happiest person became Xiao Linyi.

In addition to the soft and white Jokic, he also likes this very good-looking girl.

So today he chased the little sister back and forth, and tomorrow he pinched Jokic's chest and had a great time.

There is another thing that Lin Ying did not expect. Because Yang Shuyi and Jokic are closely related to basketball, they will also play basketball with Xiao Linyi.

Look at this, the next King of New York is Xiaolin Yi!

…

The Nets' next opponent is the Thunder.

Shortly after Lin Ying got off the plane at the Thunder's home court, Durant drove up to pick him up for dinner.

When he saw Yang Shuyi, he was stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Ying doubtfully.

When Lin Ying nodded, he immediately showed an expression of realization, and then an expression of "you still know how to play".

“She’s also my physical therapist.”

Lin Ying explained that he nodded just now to tell Durant that Yang Shuyi was the Yang Shuyi from before.

Durant still had an "I understand" expression.

Durant treated them to a feast and was really happy.

The Thunder's performance this season is very impressive. They are second only to the Warriors and Spurs in the Western Conference, suppressing the Lakers and Mavericks.

Durant should be happy too.

"Lin, you really don't know what happened to the team this year. Russell is playing more reasonably than ever before, and we are more passionate than ever before. Believe me, I will definitely reach the finals this year. of!"

"I believe."

Lin Ying nodded affirmatively.

This time he really didn't feel like Durant was a veteran general planting flags.

Although they haven't beaten the Warriors and Spurs in terms of record, the Thunder have played really well this season.

Not only what Durant said, Durant himself also played the most brilliant performance of his career.

Lin Ying is now averaging 34 points per game and Durant is 33 points!

Last year, they fought fiercely with Anthony for the scoring title at the last minute, but this year, the two of them are at the top of the Forbidden City, competing for the top spot.

"Lin, do you remember we had a bet before?"

Durant suddenly said after finishing his excitement.

"Remember."

Lin Ying nodded.

In 2012, the Nets had just been eliminated by the Bulls, and the Thunder also lost to the Lakers.

At that time, Lin Ying and Durant made a bet on who would break through in the Western Conference, the Lakers or the Mavericks.

Durant dominated the Lakers, and Lin Ying dominated the Mavericks.

You should all know the following story. That year, the Mavericks made a comeback and directly swept the Big Three of the Knicks under the leadership of Nowitzki and Yao Ming.

Lin Ying won.

Their bet at that time was that the winner could ask the loser to do something.

However, because Lin Ying didn't think about it well at the time, the bet was never fulfilled.

"I put my words here today. If I don't make it to the finals this year, Lin, you will use the bet you made back then to let me go to Brooklyn!"

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment.

He has heard of asking others to do something, but he has never heard of asking others to ask him to do something!

Durant's words are really amazing.

However, this played into Lin Ying's favour.

Everyone can see the Nets' current predicament, and no one is more suitable than Durant to break it.

As long as Durant can come, he plus Durant, the others only need to be responsible for defense and shooting open balls.

Moreover, they have been fighting separately since the NCAA came out, and now they have the opportunity to get together again, which is very exciting.

Fortunately, it's Durant. If his gay friend was Kobe, he probably wouldn't have been able to play together throughout his career.

"But I will definitely get in."

Durant is confident.

"you will."

Lin Ying nodded.

He actually also hopes that the Thunder can reach the finals, because he also wants to defeat Durant in the finals.

If you can beat Durant and invite him to Brooklyn, that would be great.

ps: Sorry for the late update. My son kept kicking the quilt at night and I woke up many times. I had something to do at noon and didn't take a nap. My head hurts and I feel very uncomfortable. I will try my best to write tomorrow and I won't ask for leave.
