Chapter 35 The first preseason game is exciting(1/2)
“Saipan~~~”
The sound of the toilet flushing came from the bathroom.
A bald head poked out.
"Why are you shouting so loudly?"
Shen Tong, who was neatly dressed, said angrily: "Constipation?"
"Yeah." Jefferson rinsed his hands.
"It's really strange that the dignified No. 2 player on the Wildcats team would be so nervous that he got constipated before the game," Shentong laughed.
Jefferson's head flashed.
"This is my first time playing as a substitute, so I will inevitably feel uncomfortable and nervous. Unlike you, you are familiar with the game and have sufficient experience on the bench."
Shen Tong, who originally wanted to mock Jefferson, was instead defeated by Jefferson...
Seeing Jefferson's evil smile in the mirror, Shen Tong couldn't refute it.
The person who knows you best can hurt you the most...
It is truly a human tragedy, and I am speechless and choked.
...
The first preseason game was played in New York.
On the bus to Madison Square Garden.
Shentong stared at Richard Jefferson sitting next to him.
︸_︸
This guy was puffing up his cheeks at the moment, and as the bus swayed, he kept making rhythmic "thud, thud, thud" sounds from his mouth.
"Richard, what are you doing?"
Shen Tong finally couldn't help but ask.
Jefferson's throat lifted up, then fell down, as if he had swallowed something.
Then, he raised his hands.
The left hand is a piece of chocolate, and the right hand is a bag of pure milk.
"Don't I drink a cup of chocolate milk every morning?"
"Yeah."
"But this morning because of your urging, I didn't have time to drink."
Gan!
You are obviously constipated, okay?
"so..."
Jefferson bit off a piece of chocolate and took a sip of milk.
shut up.
Accompanied by the trembling of the bus.
"咣叽"
"咣叽"
STO:"..."
-_-b
...
New York, the city that makes New Jerseyans angry.
People who often watch American dramas and variety shows should know that Americans have their own opinions and prejudices about many things or places.
For example, Canada, British accent, Asian girls, Mexican immigrants...
But apart from these, the place they most often use to make fun of them is New Jersey.
In the famous American soap opera "Friends", six actors living in New York mocked and smeared their neighbor New Jersey more than once in the show.
It is said that New Yorkers have three major hobbies: eating, sleeping, and black New Jersey!
Arrogant New York is a big city, the capital of the world, and the center of the universe.
The superiority of city people naturally makes them look down on country bumpkins.
Of course, because New Jersey is often criticized, New Jersey can't stand New York's attitude.
Isn't he just a rich man who smells like copper?
This confrontation has spread from the city to the basketball court.
New Jersey Nets and New York Knicks fans are incompatible.
...
In fact, it is not uncommon for cities that are closely related to each other to challenge each other.
New York and New Jersey are just two cities.
Take a look at Jiangsu.
That's the Thirteen Taibao.
No one is convinced by anyone.
...
With three hours left before the game, the Nets bus arrived at the parking lot of Madison Garden Arena.
There are already many New York Knicks fans outside the arena.
"Hey, go back, you hillbilly." Some fans shouted through the window.
Country bumpkin?
Um...
Very delicious.
Shen Tong misses the country bumpkin’s braised eggs.
Turn your head sideways.
Jefferson's braised egg head is shiny...
"Oh, my gowd!" A female fan wearing No. 20 Knicks jersey shouted loudly, imitating the New Jersey native's colloquialism, her tone full of sarcasm.
even...
She turned around unexpectedly, revealing her pure white...
Half braised egg*2
Is this a benefit or a provocation?
If it is a provocation, STO hopes to come from the front.
Shen Tong always felt ashamed about going through the back door.
...
I didn't expect that the first preseason game would be so exciting.
Amid the boos from the crowd, Shentong walked into the court with his teammates.
"Don't be affected by the environment, boys, go to the court early to warm up, we have to give them a good look on the court!" Scott seemed to have become accustomed to New York's attitude towards New Jersey.
...
The New York Knicks were fourth in the Eastern Conference last season.
After successfully defending the final game of the regular season, the Knicks, who had home-court advantage, lived up to expectations in their fifth home game and suffered a blow from the Raptors, losing 2-3.
This season, the Knicks have lost two high-quality players in Larry Johnson and Glenn Rice, and their strength has been affected.
But the core team from last season is still there.
"Central Shooting King" Alan Houston and "Madman" Latrell Sprewell support half of the team's offense.
There are two strong players on the inside, Kurt Thomas and Marcus Camby.
At the point guard position, there is experienced veteran Mark Jackson.
This point guard was selected by New York with the 18th overall pick in the first round of 1987. After traveling around the league, he returned to the place where his dream began.
Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy expects the veteran to calm the team's locker room and bring the team together to play together.
