"Happy? Happy, why not happy?"
Yao Ming was startled for a moment, then asked with a hearty smile.
Chu Tian didn't continue this topic, but he said from left to right:
"If, I mean if one day, you are not happy in Houston, and you have the opportunity to come to Los Angeles, I hope you don't say no."
Chu Tian looked at Yao Ming and said sincerely, and Yao Ming did have the opportunity to join Los Angeles one day in the future, but he refused.
"Join Los Angeles? Are you in charge?" Yao Ming was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile:
"Even if you decide what to do, Los Angeles' lineup is not as good as Houston's, so what's the use of me going?"
"We have Kobe!"
Chutian smiled and pointed at Kobe and said, Kobe looked at Chutian and Yao Ming, then nodded firmly, he also hoped that the big man Yao Ming would join.
"But we also have Maddie!"
Yao Ming asked back, in his mind McGrady is not much worse than Kobe, and McGrady's style of play is more selfless.
"McGrady is far worse than Kobe!"
As soon as Chu Tian said this, Yao Ming's expression darkened, but the two Houston Daily reporters on the table became excited.
"Chu! We've almost eaten, we can go!"
Kobe quickly changed the subject. Although he also thought that he was much better than McGrady, it was for Chutian's sake. After all, there were two reporters from the Houston Daily here, and they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
Chu Tian was unmoved, and continued to say to Yao Ming:
"In my opinion, McGrady is indeed far behind Kobe, but what they lack is not talent, but mentality and fighting spirit.
Believe me, join the Lakers if you have the opportunity!Otherwise you will regret it, and he~"
Chu Tian pointed to Kobe, then pointed to himself and continued:
"With me, we will win many, many championships!"
Yao Ming suddenly laughed when he heard this, but he didn't mean to ridicule, he just said indifferently:
"You still think about how to play today's game? Chu Tian, McGrady has been practicing extra for today's game!"
"Additional training? It's useless. No matter how much you add, you will lose. Do you want to make a bet? I will lead the Lakers to win this game tonight, and Kobe will score 50 points!"
"Oh my God! Are you talking in your sleep?"
Before Yao Ming made a statement, Peter, a reporter from the Houston Daily, retorted exaggeratedly.
"Just take a gamble if you don't believe me?"
Peter raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. This is big news!So he continued to ask:
"What if it can't be done?"
Chu Tian said loudly:
"If the Lakers can't beat the Rockets tonight and Kobe can't score 50 points, I will resign automatically and never be a coach again."
Chu Tian paused here, as if he just remembered something, and asked:
"If you win, what should you do? Wouldn't it be like Barkley kissing the donkey's ass live broadcast across the United States?"
"Although I can't live broadcast across the United States, if I lose, I will publish my confession statement in all newspapers across the United States and apologize to you! How?"
Peter gritted his teeth and said, Yao Ming also interjected at the right time, expressing his attitude implicitly:
"If you win tonight, I will consider it!"
"Deal!" Chu Tian gestured ok, said goodbye to Yao Ming's family, and left with Kobe.
"This kid is too arrogant, I don't like it."
After everyone left, Mother Yao suddenly said.
"Arrogant?"
Father Yao suddenly laughed when he heard this word, he shook his head as if to refute his wife's remarks, and said:
"There is nothing wrong with arrogance. The premise is that you have the corresponding strength. Arrogance without strength is courting death!"
"So, you are quite optimistic about this kid Chutian?"
Mother Yao asked back.
"Don't you think Chu Tian's character fits well with this place?"
"Here is the worship of individual heroism! The arrogance we think of here is precisely the embodiment of individuality, but all of this is to speak with strength."
Father Yao sighed after finishing speaking:
"Yao Ming is just too gentle and condescending. This place is no better than in China. This will become an obstacle on his growth path in the future."
…………
"Wow! Coach, what did you do? Why are the staff here so hostile?"
Odom stood next to Chu Tian holding a copy of "Houston Daily" and said exaggeratedly.
"Why is the hostility so great, haven't you already seen it?"
Chutian knew that Odom always liked to be funny, so instead of talking in his way, he ordered:
"Hurry up and warm up, the game will start in a while!"
"Ok!"
Odom gave the order clearly, so he put away his hippie smile and began to warm up with the squadron members.
Chu Tian saw the stitches and said:
"The game against the Rockets will proceed according to the previously planned plan. Don't mess up our own rhythm because of my bet!"
The last sentence he said was to Kobe. Kobe nodded and said coolly:
"Don't worry! I will definitely score 50 points tonight!"
"Wow! Boss is going crazy!" Odom yelled strangely, and Butler next to him expressed his opinion:
"Let me guard McGrady! Coach!"
In the end, other players also expressed their opinions that they would definitely win the game for Chutian. It seemed that Chutian won the hearts of the people with just one game.
"Good! Training!"
Following Chu Tian's order, the Lakers players changed their laziness in the past and began to seriously start training before the game.
……
Snapped!Inside the rocket coach's office.
"Arrogant! Too arrogant!"
Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy was so angry that he threw the "Houston Daily" on the table and asked in confusion:
"An acting coach who is not even the head coach dares to speak so brazenly. Yao, is he really Chinese?"
Yao Ming explained with a bit of dumbfounding:
"Jeff, Chutian grew up in the United States and received an American-style education, which is naturally different from the young people in China."
The subtext is that this is not educated by you Yankees, don't talk about nationality at all times!This is the brilliance of Yao Ming.
"Ugh, sorry! I'm so excited!"
This is not to blame for Van Gundy, anyone who spreads this matter will be angry, not to mention that the other party is still a fledgling rookie coach.
In Van Gundy's view, this is completely provoking himself, don't he take himself seriously!
"I'll keep Kobe under 20 and we'll win this game!"
Suddenly, a firm voice came from outside the door, followed by a figure pushing the door and entering.
