This Forward is Not Serious

so real?

Lin Ying was taken aback when she heard it, and then couldn't help laughing.

learned.

At this moment, Durant's cell phone rang suddenly.

Before Durant picked up, Lin Ying glanced at it, it was an unfamiliar call.

Durant picked up.

This kind of draft night, who knows, someone will call them.

The strange number that Lin Ying called before was George Karl's.

In case the boss calls, it will be embarrassing for you to hang up.

But after Durant picked it up this time, he was stunned for a moment, and then ran to the side to pick it up.

After waiting for a while he came back.

"Who is it?"

Lin Ying couldn't help being curious.

"A former friend."

Durant pursed his lips when he said this.

"Could it be a high school classmate again?"

Lin Ying asked with a smile.

Durant laughed and shook his head.

Lin Ying didn't ask too much. Although Durant and him have a good relationship, everyone has their own privacy.

"By the way, you have to answer a question for me."

After tonight, they will go their separate ways.

Although it is not impossible to contact in the future, it is certainly impossible to be as frequent as at the University of Texas.

So it's time to reveal his answer to the question that has been troubling him for a long time.

"what is the problem?"

Durant also looked puzzled, is there anything else Lin Ying doesn't know about him?

"Who is Rachel?"

Yes, who is Rachel.

It has been a year since Durant yelled in his college dream, and he really wants to know which fairy it is.

And the name Rachel easily reminds him of the legendary 2K girl Rachel DeMita.

If he remembered correctly, this Rachel actually had a relationship with Durant in the future in history.

"Rachel..."

Durant froze for a moment, then picked up the phone.

"How sensitive are your ears?"

"ah?"

"She was the one who called me just now. She is my high school girlfriend. We talked for 2 years. She just congratulated me on being selected. I don't know where she asked for the mobile phone number."

Durant went on to explain.

Only now did Lin Ying realize that it was Durant who thought he had heard the phone call.

Durant's high school ex-girlfriend?

That should be his first love, no wonder.

People are obsessed with first love, especially when they are young.

Especially for the ultimate otaku like Durant, after all, he seems to have nothing else to do except think about his first love.

"Then are you ready?"

"Monica is my girlfriend right now, as far as Rachel is concerned, I think of her as a friend at most."

Lin Ying nodded after listening.

This wave is still very sensible.

That Rachel hadn't contacted Durant for so long before, but now she struggled to contact Durant when he was elected No. 2 in the NBA.

If you want to rekindle your old relationship, even pigs won't believe it if you say it has nothing to do with money.

"Kevin, play less with your mobile phone, that thing will easily make you hunchback, and it will affect your appearance."

Seeing Durant subconsciously picking up his mobile phone to browse social media again, Lin Ying couldn't help reminding.

In fact, if it weren't for the hunchback, Durant's overall temperament is still okay.

Durant said "hmm" and put the phone away.

The two chatted for a while.

Perhaps it was because they knew that they would part ways tomorrow, and they felt a little bit reluctant in their hearts.

After the chat, Lin Ying ended the party and returned to the hotel.

At this time, he took out his mobile phone and found that several people had sent him text messages.

There's Yao Ming's, there's Chuck Hayes', there's even Old Winter's.

They were all congratulatory text messages, so he hurried back.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

This time it is not an unfamiliar number, he has already noted it.

It was Kobe calling.

This won't let him go to sparring again, will it?

Not on draft night.

"congratulations."

Kobe just said congratulations on the phone.

"Go ahead, I just want to say congratulations."

Then, after Kobe finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Good guy, just call here.

However, this also shows one thing.

Kobe really likes Lin Ying.

Although in the end they failed to be teammates.

...

The next day, Durant returned to Washington for a personal celebration party.

Lin Ying got on the plane to Denver.

He has to rent a house first, then sign a contract with the team, and then decide what to do next summer.

The plane landed at Denver International Airport in Denver.

After Lin Ying got off the plane, she once again felt the plateau feeling that something was squeezing her chest.

After two months, he came back here again.

It's just that the difference from last time is that this time he is not here to play a game, but to "settle down" here!

If he is lucky, he may spend his entire career in this Denver plateau.

Dragging a suitcase, he then started his house-hunting trip in Denver.

Denver is landlocked, and the temperature in July is already very high.

Lin Ying found a few houses with the agency, either the environment was too bad or the place was small.

In the end, the intermediary went there beforehand, and he sat in front of a supermarket eating the ice cream he had just bought.

Because I have been living in school before, I have never experienced the trouble of finding a house in the United States, and I have little experience.

And more importantly, there is no money!

Bill Duffy had spent most of the advertising expenses before, and the rest of the money couldn't rent any good houses.

You still have to hurry up and sign the contract.

After looking around, whether the place is good or not is another matter. The environment is too chaotic and it is not impossible to be killed by someone at night.

This is, after all, Free America.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

Another unknown number.

This time it was a familiar voice.

"Are you in Denver? Come play ball."

In addition to Anthony's voice, there was a noisy background sound, which sounded like he was on the training ground.

Is this why he is being dragged to training?

He is worthy of being a person who is tough and positive with Kobe!

But speaking of Anthony is the 03 generation, their rookie contract expired this year, but their contract was finalized last summer.

There are no worries, and the Nuggets have a stable lineup in the past two years, so they can indeed start training early.

He would like to go, but right now he has no place to live, so he can't stay in the training hall after training, right?

This is not the University of Texas, and it certainly doesn't allow it!

"House? Where are you now?"

"I'll arrange for someone to go there, and I'll bring you here when you're done."

What Anthony said next stunned Lin Ying.

Good guy, is this Anthony?

The moment she hung up the phone, Lin Ying suddenly realized why Anthony was labeled as the big brother of the gangster by the media.

This style of acting, as well as this way of speaking, is too grand.

After about a few minutes, he hadn't finished eating the ice cream, so someone drove to pick him up.

A black guy in his early twenties treated him very politely and even helped him with his luggage when he got off the car.

On the way there, I also told him how familiar I was with Denver, and promised to find him the most suitable house.

And, he's not really bragging.

In less than half an hour, Lin Ying had already got the keys to the house.

The environment of this house is good, and it is not far from Pepsi Center. The key point is that it is not very expensive.

"Don't worry, I've greeted everyone in the vicinity. If anyone dares to trouble you, they will help."

On the way to the training ground, the blacks also kept introducing him to some things in Denver.

For example, which neighborhoods are chaotic and easy to be robbed;

For example, don't resist when you are robbed, as long as you give some money, you will be safe;

Even, if it really doesn't work, you can report the name of their gang.

...

Good guy, how does Lin Ying feel that she is not joining an NBA team, but a real gangster!

And now he is sure that Anthony, the boss of a gangster, is not a label at all, it is at all!

But these things are also really useful.

After all, playing in the NBA means that he is a rich man, and being rich will naturally become the target of some criminals.

This is the biggest difference from when he played in the NCAA before.

He felt more and more that it was a good thing that he was selected by the Nuggets, and it seemed that it was not a bad thing to be covered.

At least he can practice with peace of mind.

In about twenty minutes, the black man took him outside a building in the city and told him that Anthony and others were inside.

Lin Ying showed suspicion after getting out of the car.

Because the building in front of me doesn't look like a training ground, but rather... an entertainment venue.

He called Anthony back, confirmed the location, and then walked up the stairs.

The popularity of basketball in the United States is very high, and the indoor courts are also full of strange things.

It should not be impossible to have a court in this kind of room.

Lin Ying thought so until he walked into a strip club.

"I……"

Lin Ying was embarrassed standing at the door.

It turned out that the ball Anthony was talking about was this ball!

Is he going in now? Still not going in?

Don't go in, Anthony has helped him a lot, it's a bit embarrassing for him not to go in.

But go in, what is he doing in this kind of place, is he really practicing with Anthony to break the tight press with both hands?

He was hesitating when Anthony called and asked him if he couldn't find his way and if someone would come out to take him or something.

Come on, let's go in!

It's not like mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of you, at most, the waves are turbulent, and no one can die.

When he got to the private room, he knocked on the door.

The door was opened by a familiar face.

But this familiarity is not because he has seen it before, but simply because he knows it.

JR Smith, whose neck was covered with tattoos, saw him coming, and pulled him in with a smile.

In the box, the lights were dim, the smoke was lingering, the smell of alcohol was overwhelming, and there were... a lot of balls.

Anthony had a cigar in his mouth, and there were women on his left and right hands, the kind whose coats were completely invisible.

There is one even below...

Lin Ying coughed unconsciously for a while.

I don't know if it was choked by the smoke.

When Anthony saw him come in, he took his hand off the ball, put the cigar on the ashtray, and stood up, smiling and opening his arms to him.

"Welcome to Denver, bro!"

True Induction Ceremony.

Lin Ying smiled and went up to hug Anthony.

After Anthony hugged, he turned around and drove away a woman next to him, letting him sit beside him.

"This is my brother. No one of you can bully him in the future. He is a big guy. On the defensive end, he killed a group of people in Kansas!"

Anthony is giving Lin Ying a prestige.

But looking back now, Lin Ying's ability to be favored by Anthony has a lot to do with the "one man guarding the gate" in the crazy three-player Kansas game.

It was at this moment that Lin Ying noticed who was in the box.

In addition to JR Smith, the Nuggets also have Kenyon Martin, Bobby Jones and Vann Weaver.

This is simply a Nuggets team gathering.

But I just didn't see Iverson.

After Anthony finished speaking, he snapped his fingers, and the woman whom he called out before sat on Lin Ying.

Lin Ying's body stiffened immediately.

"Relax."

Anthony patted Lin Ying on the shoulder.

After he finished speaking, he turned and gave another woman's eyes beside him.

The woman put on her clothes and climbed up to the table in the middle of the private room.

With the whistle of the Smiths, a dance began.

The picture suddenly became indescribable.

And the woman sitting on Lin Ying twisted for a while, turned around and began to pull his pants.

Fuck!

Lin Ying quickly stopped the opponent's movements.

"enjoy!"

Anthony said, picked up the cigar, and said to Lin Ying while watching the dance performance.

"I have a girlfriend! And I'm loyal to her!"

Lin Ying said, which is what Durant loves to say most.

"real?"

Anthony looked disbelieving.

He has seen countless people, Lin Ying's performance just now is clearly still a baby.

"Yes, she...she's a Brazilian model."

At this moment, all Lin Ying could think of was Dicker, whom she had met once before.

I'm sorry, although I have no choice but to use you as a shield.

"What's her name? I know her well in Brazil."

Anthony said, smoking a cigar.

He is indeed familiar. In the history of the 2016 Rio Olympics, he also went to the location of the Brazilian gangsters and took a photo of Zhang Erlang's legs. jpg.

Lin Ying knew that she couldn't make it through, so she said Dicker's name.

"I've heard of her."

Unexpectedly, Anthony really knew.

"She came to the United States to take pictures for Sports Illustrated before, and she happened to participate in the draft with me. If she knew, she might be..."

Lin Ying continued.

To make up a story, of course you have to tell something reliable.

Anthony smiled and nodded after listening, motioning for the woman to go away.

After forcing herself to stay inside for half an hour, Lin Ying finally came out with the excuse that she still had to tidy up the house and buy furniture.

Walking to the door, he took a long breath.

He was almost taken to the pit.

Anthony obviously wanted to make him his younger brother!

Sure enough, there is no such thing as a pie in the sky!

...

Just then, another strange call came in.

This time it was Nuggets general manager Mark Walkendian.

Walken Dean also cared about his house, and then told him about the signing.

Because the Nuggets will not make any big moves in the free market this year, Lin Ying is the biggest reinforcement.

So tomorrow, he can go to the Pepsi Center to sign the contract.
