Legendary basketball manager

"I know, and I won't renege on my debt."

Ajiali rolled her eyes at Shen Fei, her face was a little red.

"Let's go eat something first."

Shen Fei said with a smile.

Immediately, the two simply cleaned up and left the arena.

Fifteen minutes later, in a high-end restaurant not far from the Toyota Center, Shen Fei and Ajiali sat opposite each other.

Luminous glasses of fine wine and exquisite candlelight dinner were quickly put on the table.

The two chatted while eating.

"My parents didn't ask for anything from me since I was a child, they gave me whatever I wanted."

"I know that my life is what many people dream of, but... I always feel that it is not very interesting."

"Later, I found a lot of things to do for myself, such as charity, such as cheerleading. By the way! I also entered the entertainment circle and released a song, but it didn't catch on~"

Ajali said with a smile.

This is the first time she talks about her childhood.

Shen Fei listened quietly.

Ajiali's past can be summed up in one sentence...

One is Bai Fumei, who has money and leisure, and has been pursuing the goal of life since she was a child.

It has to be said that this is indeed the life that most people dream of.

But this eldest lady is not content with the status quo, and wants to make a career out of it.

"What about the basketball career? Do you plan to keep doing it?"

Shen Fei asked curiously.

"Well! I won't give up until I make some achievements."

"At least let the king become the top player in the league and a regular player in the playoffs..."

"If there is a chance to win the championship, it is naturally the best!"

Ajali replied.

"For the championship, it is unlikely in recent years, because the Rockets want to create a dynasty."

"But it is still possible to become a strong player in the league and steadily enter the playoffs every season."

"Although there are many strong teams in the Western Conference, but... I can help you."

Shen Fei said objectively.

In the next few years, as long as he is still the owner of the Rockets, the team is bound to strive for the championship every year.

The king wants to win the championship?

That would only be possible when Shen Fei didn't want to play anymore.

"You can't coax me at all."

Ajiali's bright eyes flickered, and she rolled her eyes at Shen Fei.

"Is the basketball career different for you? Why did you give up the entertainment career so quickly, but you have to do this for a long time?"

Shen Fei changed the subject and continued to ask.

"I said it was because of you, do you believe it?"

Ajali said with a smile.

"I?"

Shen Fei was taken aback when he heard the words.

"You know, Asians have always been unpopular in the NBA. This has only improved since Yao Ming joined the league, and you are the first Asian general manager in the NBA."

"So as soon as you came to power, my father and I were very concerned. We thought at first that it would be difficult for you to accomplish what a professional manager needs to do at such a young age."

"I didn't expect that you not only finished it, but also did your best."

"It was you who showed me that young people from the East can also make a career in the NBA!"

Ajali said seriously.

"I didn't expect that my existence could inspire you."

Shen Fei was a little surprised.

He actually wanted to remind Ajiali that his success is almost impossible to replicate...

because...

Because he is a coward!

You take a pussy as the goal of your struggle, isn't it against yourself?

Of course, it was impossible for Shen Fei to say these words.

"Don't worry, I know this road is difficult. There are only a handful of people like you who have succeeded at the beginning. I am mentally prepared."

Seeing Shen Fei's complicated expression, Ajiali added with a smile.

"Well, you just need to be mentally prepared."

Shen Fei said lightly.

Just as Ajiali was about to continue talking, her cell phone rang suddenly.

"wait for me."

Ajiali was a little embarrassed.

After Shen Fei nodded, she answered the phone.

............

"The situation is like this. The police found illegal drugs in Tyreke's home, and it was considered stolen."

"Now Tyreke has been taken away by the police, and the police will announce the results of the investigation by tomorrow morning at the latest."

"We may have to prepare for the worst. Tyreke may not come back next season..."

The assistant's words made Ajiali, who was in a happy mood, feel like falling into an ice cellar.

Tyreke Evans, the king's outside core, is also the hope of the team's revival.

But before the Long March started, he actually touched something that shouldn't be touched?

Ajali couldn't believe it.

But immediately, she remembered what Shen Fei said just now during the thunder and fire battle...

"Pay attention to Evans' character, and be careful that he does outrageous things and affects the team."

When Shen Fei said this sentence, although Ajiali remembered it, she didn't take it too seriously.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fei's words became a prophecy, and it became so fast!

"what happened?"

Seeing that Ajiali frowned, Shen Fei asked.

"Terek had an accident. The police found illegal drugs in his home, and there were a lot of them."

Ajiali said helplessly.

Shen Fei was taken aback when he heard the words.

Evans committing a crime now?

In the original time and space, he was found to be hiding contraband when the Pacers regained their worth many years later.

Shen Fei remembered that after committing the crime, Evans was suspended by the NBA for two years.

And two years later, he still has to apply to the league, and after passing the review, he can return to the nba.

But Evans is only 22 years old now, and he is in the golden period of increasing the ball.

If he is suspended during this period of time, there is a high probability that he will still follow the old path of the original time and space, and lose sight of everyone...

Shen Fei frowned slightly after understanding the situation.

Based on his relationship with Stern, if he came forward to intercede for Evans, there is a high probability that the latter's punishment can be reduced

But what Evans did deserves no sympathy.

In other words, this matter is contrary to Shen Fei's values.

He didn't want to help this!

After thinking for a while, Shen Fei decided to follow his inner thoughts.

"If the situation is correct, Tyreke should be suspended for a long time. The king's team building plan may need some fine-tuning."

Shen Fei analyzed.

"Well, that's what my assistant just said."

"I might have to hurry back to Sacramento and get this straightened out."

At this time, Ajiali was no longer in the mood to enjoy a candlelight dinner.

"I send you."

Shen Fei didn't do much to persuade him to stay.

He knew Ajiali's character.

The most important thing to do at this time is to support her.

Soon, Shen Fei drove Ajiali to the private airport.

"If you have any questions, call me anytime."

Before parting, Shen Fei said with a smile.

"Ok!"

"Then shall I go?"

Ajiali brushed a lock of hair from her forehead behind her ears.

In the moonlight, she is so beautiful.

"Go."

Shen Fei couldn't help but reached out and rubbed her hair.

Ajiali didn't dodge, she didn't turn around slowly until Shen Fei retracted her hand.

But after she took two steps, she suddenly turned around and ran to Shen Fei's side.

"Almost forgot the bet!"

Ajiali said softly.

Because they were so close, Shen Fei could even see a faint blush on the other party's snow-white neck.

The next moment, Ajiali stood on tiptoe, gave Shen Fei a superficial kiss, then turned and ran away.

Shen Fei stood at the same spot, watching the beauty go away.

It wasn't until Ajiali walked into the hatch that he smiled and shook his head.

After two lives, he was actually teased by a girl in her early twenties...

............

After sorting out his mood, Shen Fei took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time - 7:[-] in the evening.

[Go back now, should be able to catch up with the Lakers and Mavericks game...]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

Soon he drove back to his villa.

After pouring a glass of red wine and turning on the TV, Shen Fei slumped comfortably on the sofa, waiting for the start of the game.

Tonight is the sixth game between the Lakers and the Mavericks.

In the last game, the Lakers won the "Battle of Tianwang Mountain" with Kobe's outstanding performance, and the total score came to 3:2.

If they can win the game at home today, the Lakers will become the second team to enter the Western Conference Finals after the Rockets!

The Mavericks are already standing on the edge of a cliff, and there is no room for loss.

The importance of this game to the two teams is self-evident!

At this time, the starters of both sides have already stepped onto the court one after another.

The Lakers are still the regular starting lineup: Fisher, Kobe, Metta World Peace, Gasol, Bynum.

The Mavericks sent: Kidd, Terry, Marion, Nowitzki and Tyson Chandler.

It can be seen from the starting lineup that both teams are very healthy.

Shen Fei couldn't help thinking, whoever entered the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers or the Mavericks, would pose a greater threat to the Rockets.

The Mavericks have a group of "old boys" who are eager for their first championship.

Nowitzki is at his peak, and he has been unstoppable since the playoffs.

Kidd is old and strong, and he organizes and defends.

Terry feels hot and can quickly provide fire support whenever he plays.

Chandler and Marion built a complete defensive system, one inside and one outside.

To put it simply, this Mavericks has both offense and defense, and has a super giant pressure.

But at the same time, their weaknesses are also obvious.

There are many veterans in the team, and athletic ability and physical strength are a big problem.

The lack of talent has also led to their weak breakthrough ability, and their offense is more terminated by shooting.

This means that once a certain game feels bad, the Mavericks' offensive efficiency will drop significantly.

It's just that since the playoffs, Nowitzki and Terry are in full condition, so this situation has not yet occurred.

Look at the Lakers.

After the downturn at the beginning of the season, the defending champion has gradually been on the right track with Kobe recovering from his injury.

There are many talented players in the team, whether it is the team's trump card - Kobe Bryant, or the "three highs" inside, or the powerful wing - Metta Shiping, all of them have star level.

Their weakness is the hunger for the championship, and with the passage of time, it is far less than it was two years ago.

Except for the "competitive" Kobe, the other stars seem to have lost their former vigor.

This is also the biggest reason for their unsatisfactory regular season performance.

However, this shortcoming seems to have improved in the near future.

After the Mavericks showed their outstanding strength, the Zijin Army seemed to have ignited their fighting spirit and began to show the strength of the defending champion.

It is worth mentioning that before this game, Kobe said in an interview-"The Lakers have only one goal, and that is to win the championship. Because only by winning three consecutive championships can they become a dynasty team."

Kobe's speech also made the world realize again, never underestimate the heart of a championship!

The Lakers are still the Lakers, their strength and background cannot be underestimated!

Considering the advantages and disadvantages, Shen Fei actually hopes that the opponent of the Rockets in the Western Conference Finals is the Mavericks.

No disrespect to Nowitzki, it's just that the Rockets have more inside defensive resources.

Ben Wallace, Yi Jianlian, Tucker, Chris Anderson...

Even McGrady had the successful experience of single-handedly defending Nowitzki a few years ago!

The Mavericks seem balanced, but as long as Nuo Tianwang is restricted, they are another team.

Simply put, if the Mavericks can make it to the Western Conference Finals, the Rockets can use the "wheel battle" tactics against Durant on Nowitzki.

The presence of Marion also allows the Rockets to boldly double-team Nowitzki.

But if the opponent in the Western Conference Finals is the Lakers, the situation will be different.

Kobe may be the player who faced the most double-teams in the entire NBA.

He has enough ability and experience to break the rocket's pincer attack!

As for wheel battles...

Kobe is even less afraid, he is notoriously a physical madman!

In other words, the two defensive strategies that caused Durant the most headaches are difficult to apply to Kobe.

As long as he can stay healthy, the Black Mamba, who is still at the tail of his peak, has the ability to destroy the Rockets' perimeter defense!

You know, out of the Rockets' eight regular-season defeats, two were thanks to Kobe.

Of course, these are only Shen Fei's preliminary ideas.

Even if the Lakers finally advance to the Western Conference Finals, the Rockets are not afraid at all, but they need to worry more.

............

While Shen Fei was dreaming, the competition started!

The referee tosses the ball high, Bynum and Chandler take off at the same time...

In the end, it was the boxing champion who was even better and returned the ball to his own half.

Mavericks go first!

Kidd passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize.

Fisher stepped forward and assumed a standard defensive posture.

He and Kidd are the two slowest players in the game.

The difference is that Kidd has a beautiful pass that can link his teammates together.

Soon, Terry passed the screen, got rid of Kobe's defense, and came to the outside to receive the ball.

But the moment he caught the ball, the Black Mamba rushed to the defensive position and began to press close.

This made Terry very uncomfortable.

He had to retreat and dribble back and forth, intending to open up space.

But Kobe didn't give him a chance to breathe at all, and he rushed forward with a stride, and the action of drawing the ball in his hand never stopped.

Terry was so scrambled that he could barely protect the basketball.

Seeing this, Nowitzki hurried forward to set up a pick-and-roll for his teammates.

With the pick and roll, Terry finally passed Kobe.

But before he could relax, Kobe reached out and took the ball from behind him...

Ci Shiping had quick eyes and quick hands, controlled the ball, and then threw the ball forward with a big wave of his hand!

At the same time, Kobe, who completed the steal, has quietly come to the Mavericks half.

After steadily receiving Ci Shiping's pass, he counted his steps, dribbled one step inside the free throw line, and took off with both feet...
