294.This is all for the sake of being friendly to teammates!

What should you do when you come to New York?

Of course you have to mask up!

People here seem to hate themselves more than people in Los Angeles and Portland!

Liu Mang once again walked through the streets wearing a hat and mask.

"Dina, I've arrived at Zuccotti Park, but where is the store you mentioned?" Liu Mang asked into the phone.

"On the street next to the tallest building."

"The tallest building? Where is the tallest building around here?" Liu Mang looked around and saw that the buildings were all about the same height. They were all shopping malls with seven or eight floors.

"Uncle is so stupid! Just that, the new 21st Century Mall next to the World Trade Center!"

Liu Mang could feel Dinah's serious contempt from the phone call.

Although Liu Mang usually doted on this little lolita and said everything the little lolita said was right, he couldn't bear it this time!

“The World Trade Center fell last year!”

"..." There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then the little girl was still so tough, "Uncle, don't you know how to ask someone? New Century Mall is very famous!"

"..." This time it was Liu Mang's turn to be silent, "Your uncle is afraid of being beaten to death by Knicks fans..."



On the afternoon of March 9th, the Hawks just flew from Miami to New York. The next game was a popular game for the Hawks. The opponent might not be that good, but the Knicks, the first team in the Eastern Conference, were so popular.

However, after Liu Mang came to New York, he first practiced 500 extra shots in the regular afternoon. After the extra practice, the first thing he did was to buy a hat for Dinah.

The little girl said that she would not spend money from a poor uncle, she would pay for it herself, and she had saved enough pocket money.

Finally, after asking for directions from a seemingly inoffensive beauty who was probably a high school girl, Liu Mang finally found this legendary 21st century mall.

As for why I am looking for a female high school student... Mainly because the other party is a beauty. I really can't tell the difference between female high school students and college students in the United States. They are all so well developed.

Arriving at the so-called 21st Century Mall, Liu Mang finally understood why this place was so "famous".

It's not a high-end mall, but it's not bad either. Everything is not cheap, but it's not so expensive that ordinary people can't afford it.

This is an "old era" famous brand store opened on December 31, 1999.

The so-called old era, which sounds nice, is actually a gathering place for discount stores of famous brands that change seasons. The prices are usually 10% to 30% off those in the hot season.

Although it is a seasonal item, at least it is authentic, so many people who travel to New York like to come here to buy something.

But...Liu Mang is very curious, does Dinah's family need to come to a place like this to buy things?

As a basic-salary player who is extremely poor in the NBA, it is unlikely that he would come here to buy clothes. He still has to save face anyway, so he should either wear popular brands or not join in the fun.

I dialed Dinah's phone number again.

"Dina, are you sure the things you asked me to bring for you were bought here?" Liu Mang asked uncertainly.

"That's it, uncle, look for it, the Gucci discount store..."





Back at the Trump International Hotel in Manhattan, Jason Terry and Emmanuel were passing through the indoor basketball court of the hotel rented by the Hawks. They were looking at Coach Crook's angry eyes.

practice.

Jason Terry and Emmanuel were furious when they saw Liu Mang walking around with a wicked smile on his face!

The incident goes back to last night when Liu Mang was still at the Beach International City Hotel in Miami. Liu Mang returned to the hotel overnight to help Jason Terry and Emmanuel write a "letter of confession" about losing to the Heat.

He expressed his mistakes very "sincerely" and "sincerely", saying that the poor performance this time was all because the night in Miami was too beautiful, the scenery of the nightclub was too charming, and the girl's kung fu was too good...

Adhering to the ancient style of pre-Qin gorgeous rhetoric, it is written in precise Chinese English. Even Americans can still understand it.

Real English conversation has nothing to do with the things in domestic English exams.

Moreover, the content "written by two people" was different, so conclusive and clearly described that when Jason Terry and Emmanuel saw the content, they really thought they were too drunk and had forgotten what happened.

The incident was seen by Liu Mang, who was unable to drink.

But……

The party Liu Mang attended didn't drink at all, okay? All the people at the party were old men, even the waiters were old men, okay?

Jason Terry and Emmanuel screamed in their hearts that they should not offend this damn rookie!

Then, Coach Kruger, who was already very angry, said that Jason Terry and Emmanuel would practice 1,000 additional three-pointers each...

It’s good to practice shooting more. Liu Mang said it was for the sake of his teammates, so he also practiced it himself!

Back in the room, Liu Mang took out the beautiful shopping bag, looked at the Panamanian-style brand-name hat that seemed to him to be no different from the more than ten yuan hat on the street, and then looked at the three-digit hat in his hand.

The legendary designer hat is discounted to US$27,357.33.

The original price of this broken hat is 91,000?

Liu Mang really couldn't see any difference between this and the hats that cost more than ten yuan on the roadside.

Liu Mang couldn't help but feel sad about his imagination that was limited by poverty: "Hey, they say that one day people will become the person they hate... I want that day to come soon! I hate rich people!"





These are all small episodes. Jason Trega "chased" Liu Mang all over the hotel after practice, but the Eagles players are used to this kind of scene.

"Jason, are you tired? How about I wait for you to rest for a while and then continue practicing for the marathon?" Liu Mang looked very relaxed and said that he could still run 10,000 meters.

Liu Mang's triumphant look drove Jason Terry crazy, but he couldn't catch this kid! He was so good at running and in great physical condition!

However, sometimes the team has a rookie like Liu Mang who likes to cause trouble no matter what, and the team atmosphere is unspeakable.

Yesterday we lost to the Heat, a disastrous defeat. It was originally a very demoralizing and embarrassing thing, so I won’t talk about the loss of face.

What hurts morale is that even the Heat have a way to restrain the Hawks. Although the Heat's shooting yesterday was unbelievably accurate. They still shot 50% after the game, making 36 of 71 shots from the field. But they were against the Hawks.

Some defensive methods of counterattack have given inspiration to many teams and also sounded a wake-up call to the Eagles coaching staff.

As for the fuss that Liu Mang caused, everyone later found out that it was Liu Mang who had tricked Jason Terry and Emmanuel. Everyone was extremely happy, including Coach Kruger.

I couldn't get angry anymore, and the dull atmosphere of losing suddenly disappeared.

In March, New York also started to feel like spring. After several consecutive days of sunny days that were not too hot, the whole of New York seemed to be warm.

Liu Mang and Jason Terry chased him into the garden of the Trump Hotel.

"Hey, Jason." Liu Mang was lying on the lawn of the hotel garden and shouted to Jason Terry, who was breathing heavily.

"What's wrong Ace?" Jason Terry made a fuss. He wasn't really angry with Liu Mang. He was just being tricked by the rookie and felt very embarrassed. You guys also want to save face, okay?

"How come the hotel we stay in is always owned by the Trump family?" Liu Mang was very curious. Unless there is no Trump hotel in the city where the guest hotel is located, such as Charlotte or Memphis, we stay in other five-star hotels.

Hotels, but as long as there is a Trump hotel, the Eagles will choose the Trump hotel.

"It seems that our team has an agreement with them, and the price may be cheaper." Jason Terry responded casually.

"I see..." Liu Mang thought of a woman with an incredible figure and incredible beauty.

"Jason, have you seen the eldest daughter of the Trump family? I heard she is very beautiful."

"Have you ever heard of her? She seems to be a well-known rich lady among the upper class. She is not from the same world as us, so she is not interested."

"Jason, you will at least be a multi-millionaire in the future! It is possible to earn 100 million if you work for a long time..."

"This is not a question of money or not...you don't understand even if you are a novelist, and the daily limit of their stock price is enough for us to earn for several lifetimes."

Jason Terry surprisingly has no interest in rich people's daughters.

Liu Mang also felt that Jason Terry was right. He thought of Ivanka just because he stayed in a hotel owned by her family.

Mainly because of this season and this climate.
