Chapter 1054 The Challengers of the Pelicans
This signing is obviously aimed at the Pelicans.
This lineup is also the only one that can compete with the Pelicans on paper in the new season.
"Dear, I've passed security."
Olson said to Tang Tian, who was still looking at his phone.
Tang Tian responded, put away his cell phone, and walked towards the boarding gate with little Tangs in his arms.
The Pelicans' four-star lineup made most fans feel that the new season was dull, but not all teams gave up.
Like the Bucks, the Knights, and the Warriors are still resisting.
It's not just them, maybe the media will make some hype, thinking that they can compete with the Pelicans.
But you may know whether it can be done until the new season starts.
The plane arrived at the Murttala Mohammed International Airport the next day. After getting off the plane, they headed straight to the seafood market on Victoria Island.
With the last experience, they were familiar with it.
And compared with four years ago, the infrastructure here has basically not changed much.
Africans are really lazy with no blind spots.
Even though this is already the most visited area in Africa every year, it seems that people spend it as soon as they make money.
However, these will not affect them. They are not here to develop Africa, but to come to hang out and eat.
I bought a basket of seafood market and waited directly to eat at the seafood restaurant. Olsen's saliva was almost flowing all over the floor.
Compared to the Caribbean, this place is obviously the place she loves to come more.
The last time they came, they took the seafood that they had not finished eating to the beach for barbecue. This time, they directly asked the cooked and roasted ones in the store to make it feel like a full seafood stew.
Their way of eating also made others saliva look at each other, which is probably the first time they have seen it.
Fortunately, Africans don’t like basketball very much, otherwise Tang Tian would be recognized and they wouldn’t be able to eat this seafood meal.
After they had enough food and drink, the next day, they took their two sons and African lions to Baoqi's National Zoo.
This time they did not intend to go deeper, but just moved around the zoo.
They just brought African lions to experience the grassland style again, and they didn't want it to fight with other African lions.
Tang Tian tried to call the tour guide named Embiid, who had previously, but the result was the same as they had seen before.
Four years have passed, he is still a tour guide and is eating and drinking with others.
However, when he heard that business came to him, he rushed over quickly.
Drink well and eat well, but the premise is that you cannot miss the opportunity to make money.
"You are Tang!"
Embiid greeted him as soon as he met, and this guy looked quite good in memory.
However, after a few words and Embiid asked him to sign, Tang Tian found that things were different from what he thought, and it should be said that they were very different.
Just like when teachers teach many students, they are likely to not remember the names of most students.
Embiid receives so many tourists every year. It is impossible for Tang Tian and his party to remember it so well four years ago that they could not remember it so quickly.
The reason why he could call Tang Tian’s name was because he knew Tang Tian now!
This looks like a tongue twister, but that's the case. He knew that Tang Tian was an NBA superstar, so he asked him for an autograph.
The reason made Tang Tian a little amused.
When he heard the tour guide introduce his name to Embiid, he was also puzzled that the tour guide's name was the same as the NBA's Joel Embiid.
But the reality is that this guy is really a distant relative of Embiid!
Although it is very far away.
The reason I didn't know each other before was because Joel Embiid was still a rookie at that time and didn't make a name for himself, so he naturally wouldn't pay attention to NBA.
After all, Africa is the country of football.
But now that the situation has changed, Tang Tian naturally became the person he knew.
And from Embiid, he also learned that Joel Embiid and Siakam, two Cameroonian national teammates, are now playing in the national park.
Embiid previously posted a photo of him lying next to the African lion on Twitter, which was called the Great Emperor by some fans, but unexpectedly it was taken by Bao Qi.
This is a coincidence.
After paying the deposit, they entered the national park under Embiid's leadership and then played for a while on the periphery.
The African lion was a little excited after going down, but no matter how Tang Tian drove it, it did not dare to run away, but was only about 100 meters within their field of vision.
It seems that besides its large size, it is really an oversized orange cat.
Tang Tian didn't force it. It's not easy for a person to live a lifetime, let alone a lion, living like a pig, is actually a good experience.
While playing, Embiid and the car came by the roadside, and the car drove to them and got off.
At this moment, Tang Tian discovered that it was Joel Embiid and Siakam.
"Boss?"
When I saw Tang Tian, Siakam was full of surprise.
He probably never thought he would meet Tang Tian here.
However, Embiid's face was very ordinary when he saw Tang Tian's face, and he was even a little disdainful.
When he said hello, Embiid just said a few words politely, and then went back first.
Siakam did not follow him, and the team boss is here. He will not miss such an opportunity to strengthen the relationship.
"Joel is in a bad mood?"
Tang Tian was bored and asked Siakam.
I didn't seem to provoke that guy, but I ended up eating a bad face.
"He...he has a lot of opinions on our team's lineup in the new season."
Siakam and Embiid were on vacation in Bauchi together, and the two must have had a lot of communication in private.
Although this sentence has been said in a tactful manner, Tang Tian can still hear the meaning of the words.
Embiid has an opinion on the Pelicans' grouping together in the new season!
Tang Tian couldn't help but smile.
Speaking of grouping, the Mavericks are five-star last season, and their approach is just as good as theirs now.
This is a typical fifty-step laughter.
After all, the Pelicans put too much pressure on Embiid.
"Did he say he'll beat us in the new season?"
Tang Tian asked with a smile, and he suddenly felt that Bao Qi's trip was quite interesting.
Embiid is the kind of person who likes to play Twitter and talkatively, and everyone knows how to hook up with Madonna when he first entered the league.
Compared to Green, he is the kind of person who is more direct and positive.
Siakam hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"He said the Mavericks lost last season because of Butler. Now Butler is gone, and he will lead the team to win the championship in the new season."
"I like."
After hearing what Siakam said, Tang Tian suddenly became a little fond of Embiid.
When the Pelicans just formed a four-star lineup during the offseason, the league was wailing.
But just over a month later, other teams and people have recovered. Embiid, like the Cavaliers before, thinks they can beat the Pelicans.
But this is a good thing. For the Pelicans, beating opponents without fighting spirit is meaningless. On the contrary, beating challengers is interesting.
Although it might be like meeting a tiger in the wild and yelling and rushing up, it just makes yourself die a little more decent.
But at least the tiger is happy.
