NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

In the 2008 season, Leonard thought that he and the Tigers would create miracles, the best record in team history, the second national finals, a reasonable team lineup, and the biggest favorite of the No. [-] pick...

All of this has Memphis aiming for the championship, even Leonard is no exception.

But the result broke the hearts of all Memphis supporters.

After seeing the results of the game, Leonard even thought of retiring.

Because he knows that he is already very old. In his limited career, the possibility of Memphis returning to the finals is very slim, let alone the championship...

The departure of Calipari and the coaching team during the offseason last year made him firm in this idea. After setting the goal for Pastner to break into March Madness, he has already made up his mind. After the season is over, submit your resignation to the school board!

But he never dreamed that a rookie coach Pastner, together with a group of guys with mediocre talents, would actually reach the national finals.

Even if they lost in the finals, they tied the best record in the history of the University of Memphis!

This rekindled hope in Leonard's heart!

With the current strength of the Tigers, it is not impossible to win the championship!

Could it be that God has manifested himself?Seeing that I am about to retire, help me fulfill my wish?

Leonard devoutly drew a sign of the cross on his chest...

……

Today, Sun Jianguo didn't watch the game in front of the TV, because the business in the restaurant has been surprisingly good recently, which made him a little bit overwhelmed.

He was shaking the spoon on the burning stove, but his heart had already flown home.

"Today is the national semi-finals, I don't know how Kaiming is doing..."

Sun Jianguo murmured in his heart.

After frying the dishes, he immediately placed them on the corresponding table. When he was about to go back and cook the next dish, he suddenly heard two people talking at the table beside him.

"Hey, did you watch the game between Butler University and the University of Memphis today? It was a wonderful event!"

"How could I not have seen this? Memphis is too good to beat Butler. It is estimated that many experts have been slapped in the face!"

……

When Sun Jianguo heard these two sentences, he froze on the spot!

Kaiming, are you in the finals?

After he reacted, he immediately threw himself on the table. Regardless of his rude behavior, he asked directly, "You just said that the University of Memphis won the University of Butler?"

Sitting at that table were two young men who were taken aback by the cook who suddenly rushed over.

After the two looked at each other, one of the blond young men said to Sun Jianguo, "Yes, uncle, you also pay attention to ncaa? There are not many people at your age who watch ncaa..."

Sun Jianguo immediately puffed up his chest and said proudly, "Li Kaiming from the University of Memphis, have you heard of it?"

Another young man in blue replied with a smile, "He is the absolute core of Memphis. This year's NBA draft is the top pick. How could we not know?"

And the young man with blonde hair and blue eyes saw a clue, and with a playful expression on his face, he said to Sun Jianguo, "Why, uncle, do you know him?"

Sun Jianguo chuckled, "To tell you the truth, Li Kaiming is my nephew..."

Hearing this, the young man with blond hair exchanged glances with the young man in blue clothes. After a long silence, he suddenly burst out laughing!

"Hahaha, uncle, you are so funny. It is true that Li Kaiming is Chinese, but he can't be your nephew!"

The young man in blue was even more breathless with laughter, "Uncle, we have eaten at your place more than once. If you really have something to do with Li Kaiming, why haven't we met him?"

The smile on Sun Jianguo's face froze.

These two guys don't believe that Li Kaiming is his nephew?

The movement at this table quickly attracted the attention of other customers, so they asked the two young people one after another, wanting to know what was going on!

It seems that people all over the world like to eat melons.

After the two young men talked about the matter for a while, regular customers around soon said to Sun Jianguo, "Sun, don't slap your face swollen and look fat. Who doesn't know that you are just an ordinary restaurant owner, so we don't have to die." To save face, I will give you a little more tip in the future..."

"That's right, Sun, it's good to be an ordinary person. You are so old, and we don't need to have a relationship with any celebrity. It's a shame..."

Seeing that no one in the restaurant believed him, Sun Jianguo was dumbfounded.

But he couldn't come up with any evidence for a while. It's not that Li Kaiming has never been to this restaurant, but that was before he went to college. After college, he was busy with studies and competitions (watching the water dispenser), so he didn't have time to come to the restaurant to help.

Before he became famous, who would notice a Chinese kid serving dishes in a Chinese restaurant?

But Sun Jianguo is not convinced. Our old Sun has been busy all his life, and he has never been the kind of person who likes to brag.

Finally, there is a talent in the family. If you want to show it, what you get is not praise, but questioning and ridicule!

He was naturally upset.

So he got up and looked around the restaurant, and said loudly to all the customers, "Okay, don't you believe it? Then I invite Li Kaiming here, do you believe it?"

The young man in blue immediately replied, "If you see Li Kaiming himself, how can you not believe it? But can you invite me?"

Sun Jianguo stared at the former's face with a smile on his face, "Of course I can invite him, but not now because he has to play a game. We will wait until the third day after the game. You guys can come to the restaurant and wait. I will definitely let you see Li Kaiming! If you don’t see him, everyone present will be free of charge when you come to my restaurant to eat in the future!”

The customers didn't expect that Sun Jianguo, who seemed honest and friendly, would be so tough, and they didn't expect that Sun Jianguo didn't look like a joke, but was going to be serious!

But this is Li Kaiming, the top pick in the nba!

Wouldn't it be a lot of money if I could see it and ask for an autograph and a group photo?

Even if you can't see it, you can eat for free, no matter how you look at it, it's not a loss!

So the spectators at the scene agreed to come and find out on the third day after the finals.

And after that, I don't know who spread the news, saying that after the finals, Li Kaiming would come to a Chinese restaurant in Memphis to meet fans!

This made the flow of people in Sun Jianguo's restaurant dozens of times higher than usual!

Usually during the peak hours, the entire restaurant is just full, but now the entire restaurant is crowded with people, and there is not even a place to stand on the ground!

Although most of the people came here to watch the excitement or to inquire about the news, after tasting Sun Jianguo's dishes once in a while, they immediately expressed that they would come to eat more often in the future.

Inadvertently, Sun Jianguo completed a beautiful marketing campaign, which made his small Chinese restaurant popular in Memphis, and the turnover increased by several orders of magnitude!

This also made the few restaurants next to his house that were also engaged in catering hate their teeth itchy.

Bragging that NBA players are coming to your house for dinner, right?

If you don't come, don't even think about opening your shop here...
