Basketball: starting from the nerve knife

Chapter 114: Before the All-Star Weekend and Taylor’s Confession

“Li Wan, apply for a deal! ”

Taryn’s tone was not cold, but when he said this, Kupchek trembled violently, and he didn’t know if his body was shaking or his heart was shaking.

He didn’t speak.

Tyren didn’t speak again.

The two of them listened to the sound of their breathing coming from the microphone.

Taryn’s is very even.

Mr. Kupcek’s breathing was sometimes slow and sometimes rapid.

He thought of when he was 19 years old, a very distant time in retrospect at his age. At that time, he broke up with his first girlfriend on the phone, and at the end of the day, there was only silence.

This moment is like that moment.

It’s just that now he has to hurt a little more!

“Got it…”

This is powerless, and Kupchek can’t change anything, because he is the driving force behind everything.

Of course, he also knew the reason why Li Wan took the initiative to apply for a deal.

Not only is he tired of being in the trading rumors all the time, but also to a certain extent to relieve his embarrassment, at least in this way, Li Wan’s departure, to a certain extent, he wants to leave.

He did not call Chris Wallace at the first time, but first told the old Buss everything, thought for a while, his fingers looked for letters in the text message interface, and slowly pressed them one by one, forming what he wanted to say to Kobe: Li Wan’s agent just called, he wants to leave the Lakers and go to the Magic. The deal is basically finalized.

In the end, he left Li Wan, and the chips that could be exchanged for were also sent.

Li Wan also got a reply from Taryn at this time.

The deal should be stable.

He said “um”, paced slowly, walked to the balcony, held the railing with one hand, and looked at the night in Los Angeles with a little uncalm.

I’m afraid a few people won’t be able to sleep tonight.

“Buzz! ”

The fingers rubbing the mobile phone sent a vibration, and the reason why women like to open the vibration was found.

It’s a text message.

Kobe’s.

Li Wan first glanced at the time when Taryn called him, and then glanced at the time when Kobe’s text message came.

Less than ten minutes.

– Tomorrow at 4 a.m.

Just a few short words.

Li Wan also simply replied with one word: Hmm.

He agreed, this time without any conditions.

Tomorrow is January 9, after the home game against the Bucks, the Lakers will have two “back-to-back” games on the road, and the “back-to-back” end is All-Star Weekend.

That is, it was Li Wan’s last 4 a.m. with the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant didn’t reply again, Li Wan looked up at the sky, and a few stars hung in the night sky.

– Are you going to watch tomorrow? This should be my last home stadium in Los Angeles.

After the “Click-Click” was finished, Li Wan deleted all of them again.

This was supposed to be sent to Taylor Swift, but he knew that Taylor would have to sing at the Grammys on February 10, and he would need to go through a process and stage audition tomorrow.

There should be no time.

Li Wan, this person, does not like others to trouble him, and he will not make others embarrassed.

Looking at Taylor Swift’s good night sent at 11:30 before, without further thought, he looked at the night in Los Angeles again and went to bed early.

At 3:50 a.m., Li Wan arrived at the arena as agreed, Kobe was already practicing inside, saw him coming, and looked at him deeply: “Come on, rookie, let’s start!” ”

“Man, looking at you like this, you should have changed a jersey, right? Li Wan rolled his eyes, “You’ve been warming up for so long, I just came… Was that how you singled out the Stackhouse back then? ”

Jerry Starkhouse, the core of the 76ers before ’96, well, the “worst little junior brother in North Carolina” who said “Jordan is nothing great” and then was beaten on the ground by Jordan.

There is another widely spread thing about him, that is, when Kobe was 17 years old, he singled him out.

Later, Starkhouse himself ran out to refute the rumors, saying that it was all fake, that it was impossible to burst, and that he did win, but I didn’t give him strength, for fear of hurting him.

However, Starkhouse said this after Kobe Bryant left, what happened is unknown.

Listening to Li Wan’s usual steady trash talk, Kobe smiled.

“That’s the advantage of early risers, they can get to the pitch earlier than I can, I didn’t say no… So come on, rookie. Kobe Bryant didn’t budge.

Li Wan didn’t grind any more.

For him, warming up or not warming up is the same, and the result is to be burst.

Since there is no difference, then what else to warm up, dry early, end early.

You ask him, then why do you still talk about it?

Huh, the name “Trash Kid” came from nothing?

“Kobe, you’re getting worse and worse! In these two hours, he won me four rounds and scored five goals…”

Li Wan leaned back, supported the ground with his hands, sat on the ground, and gasped. His strength had softened, but his mouth was still hard.

A person can fall, but the mouth must not fall.

Bryant brought him a bottle of water as usual.

Li Wan was a little surprised…

I don’t give him “Pippen” anymore, this guy is actually so active?

Real hammer, Kobe is shaking M …

“The deal thing… I already know. ”

Kobe sat down next to him, and after catching his breath, he showed off half a bottle of water and spoke slowly.

On the one hand, he didn’t think of anything to say, on the other hand, the pressure that Li Wan brought him was indeed much greater than the first time, although he still defeated Li Wan with a crushing force, but this time, he really had no reservations at all.

It is foreseeable that the next time he fights, this guy should give him a tricky feeling.

“I remember when I was 19 years old, I was just getting a fixed amount of time on the Lakers’ bench. ”

Kobe wanted to praise Li Wan.

But this guy screamed, and it was he who suffered.

When the words came to his lips, it became a memory of the past.

“Isn’t it true that older people like to reminisce about the past?” ”

Li Wan’s cold words successfully reaped a roll of his eyes. The meaning of Kobe’s words, he can hear it, want to say, 19 years old, he is already very powerful, from the perspective of team status, still surpassing him, at that time he was still on the bench, and Li Wandu sat in the starting position.

But in fact, Bryant finished the second season of his career, just 19 years old, and the third season was his transition from 19 to 20 years old, that season he played 50 games with the Lakers, starting every game, and averaged 19.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game.

He averaged about the same points per game as he does now, rebounded a little more, and had fewer assists. Looking only at the data, there are no obvious disadvantages overall, but there are no advantages either.

“I actually thought you’d leave the Lakers… I just didn’t expect it to be so fast…”

Bryant spat out another sincere sentence.

Li Wan’s usual performance, he saw in his eyes.

Don’t look at this guy’s usual three days and two heads of lace news, as if he is just a player in the NBA, but his attitude is here, every day when there is no game, he will practice for another hour to 1 and a half hours after daily training.

Even if he scored 52 points in a single game and shocked the league, he did not relax and still maintained his original attitude.

A player who constantly wants to climb up and become stronger cannot be without ambition.

“If I withdraw the trade request…” Li Wan looked at Kobe Bryant, “In two years, will you consciously give me the position?” ”

“Huh~”

Bryant didn’t answer, just smiled.

Naturally, he won’t.

Even if Li Wan at that time was already a player of his level, if he wanted the position of absolute core, he had to be picked off, otherwise he would not be able to give the position of the boss.

Because back then, he also came over like this.

The core of the team… It’s not a way to let it out!

Li Wan’s question made Kobe understand that this kid knew him better than he thought.

Since you still have to compete for the position of the boss through performance in two years, now that you have the opportunity, why not go out and try it?

After chatting, a fish’s belly white appeared outside the window.

It’s dawning.

“I probably won’t say anything until a day after All-Star Weekend…”

If Kobe Bryant does not take a position, the deal will not go ahead.

“Tonight’s game, if you don’t play well, I won’t agree. ”

Coldly dropping such a sentence, Kobe got up and left, leaving Li Wan with a lonely back.

This is the tsundere Kobe who wants him to play a beautiful Lakers home curtain call.

“Hey, Kobe! Li Wan stopped him and stood up, “I exchanged so many people for you, you should thank me, right?” ”

Pau Gasol, Ariza are players who would have been to the Lakers.

But Nelson Jr. is neither white shooter J.J. Reddick.

An aggressive No. 1, and a three-point shooter who has always been eager to play but has not played time, this season’s Lakers, after this deal, are stronger than they were at the same time.

Kobe paused and tilted his head slightly, and did not turn his head sharply, but Li Wan knew that he was looking at him with a sideline.

“I actually want you to stay more, you’re a great teammate…”

After that, without waiting for Li Wan to say anything, he strode towards the door, and it could be seen that his steps to leave were slightly hurried compared to just now.

He……

It’s embarrassing.

Especially when Li Wan behind him came with a sentence of “uh, good meat hemp”, he had a sense of shame of picking his toes.

This is indeed different from the character he shows.

And like Li Wan said…

This is a bit meaty.

If Vanessa heard it, she would only look at him with resentful eyes.

You haven’t even said such sweet things to me…

So much so that Kobe, who gathered for training in the morning and returned to cold expression, still did not dare to look at Li Wanyou.

Odom, who is usually very nervous, keenly noticed this, well, not that he was sharp, but … How many times he coordinated small conflicts between Kobe and Li Wan, although sometimes it helped, but it didn’t matter.

The important thing is that he knows very well what the atmosphere between the normal Kobe Bryant and Li Wan is like.

Li Wan’s face was calm, thinking of Kobe’s true feelings at that time, he laughed softly and did not answer.

For half a year, Kobe can show his soft side in his heart, this kind of thing, ordinary people should not be able to do it, right?

Should he reward a woman for treating herself?

The evening game came quickly.

Before Kobe Bryant nodded, Kupchek did not move, and as for the other two, before the deal was about to be concluded, they naturally kept silent and waited for the final moment.

Therefore, the outside world does not know that Li Wan is about to leave the Lakers.

As usual, Angelenos gave enthusiastic cheers. The screams filled the entire Staples, and all kinds of rumors from the outside world flew all over the sky, and Li Wan, as the protagonist of the trading rumors, was deeply caught in it.

Rookie worries every day whether it will be traded.

He should be very scared at the moment, right?

The diehard loyalists of the Lakers feel sorry for Li Wan, and the female fans are flooded with maternal love, and their eyes look at Li Wan, as if they are looking at a puppy who can’t enter the door on a thunderstorm and hides in a corner and shivering.

Come, come to your mother’s arms, hug!

I heard that Li Wan’s first batch of “mother fans” appeared at this time.

Li Wan just smiled faintly, but Kobe glanced at him from time to time.

On the opposite side, Yi Jianlian took the initiative to come over to greet Li Wan, and the iconic “subwoofer” was a little vague in the boiling shouts of the audience: “Congratulations, Li Wan, into the all-star starter!” ”

Li Wan patted his waist, taking the initiative to appear closer, since the last time after the game, Yi Jianlian chatted with him a lot more, from the original “old and dead do not communicate with each other” to now 2 months has issued two, and four or five days later, but also play the rookie challenge together, and the summer may play the Olympics together, he feels that there is no problem in giving a response.

Yi Jianlian’s interest is obviously not high.

Domestic fans are now very unfriendly to him, which corresponds to the saying: the higher the expectation, the greater the backlash once the performance is not good.

The most important thing is that the media has not yet realized that Yi Jianlian really needs to make some changes, and is still touting it vigorously.

Their praise is like the wind when a wildfire burns.

In fact, Yi Jianlian’s performance has been very good recently, and he has scored 14 plus points in two consecutive games. But it may be that he is in front of this pearl jade, and the evaluation of him by domestic fans is still not friendly.

Huh?

So calculated, or did I hurt the UAE?

Forget it, give the UAE more penalties in the Rookie Challenge!

Then the competition officially began.

Lakers starters: No. 1 Li Wan, No. 2 Kobe, No. 3 Luke Wharton, No. 4 Odom, No. 5 Kwame Brown;

Bucks starters: No. 1 Mo Williams, No. 2 Michael Reid, No. 3 Draymond Mason, No. 4 Yi Jianlian, No. 5 Bogut;

Because it was Li Wan and Yi Jianlian who met in the arena, even if this match was not a “national live broadcast”, there were many media on the scene.

It is probably for this reason that Yi Jianlian got the first launch plan.

He played well in the first two games, but both came off the bench.

Rookie Bishop Larry Christowiak of the Bucks now clearly prefers to use “The Eyebrowless Man” Villanueva.

But he is also quite stressed.

The Bucks’ roster is not bad, there are also All-Stars in their prime, and there are so many people in the East who still can’t make the playoffs.

It is also fate.

You can’t lose if you want to lose over there, but you can’t win here!

At one point, the Milwaukee press even thought the Bucks were looking ahead to next season and looking for potential newcomers to develop.

The ball was given to the Lakers.

Li Wan took the ball to the front court.

Bryant didn’t come out to catch the ball.

Odom’s pupils contracted slightly, did the two of them make such a serious fight this time?

Lee Wan faces Mo Williams.

Later, the “guard with a knife”, now nicknamed “Mo Bu Chuan”.

Because he doesn’t always pass the ball to the UAE, from this.

His strengths are all in the offensive end, the defensive end is sparse, and he is only 1.85 meters tall, and his speed is not fast. That left him with no shortage of the only defensive advantage.

Li Wan was also not polite, took the ball and ate strongly, one step closer, created confrontation with him, easily squeezed away, and entered the inside.

The UAE showed his mobility and made timely re-defenses.

Li Wan held the ball in both hands and pretended to pass the ball to the outside, tricking Yi Jianlian into subconsciously chasing the outside line, and after reaching the inside line, he hit the ball to Odom.

The latter attracted Bogut and gave the ball to Li Wan.

The ball flew out of Li Wan’s hand and bounced into the basket.

“3v1” inside, Bogut is like a clumsy white bear, not knowing which side to defend, simply looking up at the basket.

The ball fell right down the basket and smashed straight into Bogut’s face.

He covered his nose in pain, covered it for a long time, and tears were about to come out.

Look up again…

The rest of the Bucks didn’t notice his discomfort, Mo Williams just let Li Wan eat so strongly, urged the UAE to serve, roared and went to the front, others were afraid that he could not play the opposite five alone, and hurried to follow his footsteps.

It wasn’t until Mo Williams shot the frame and everyone returned to the defense that it was discovered…

Oh, it turns out that we have always been missing individuals?

Larry on the sidelines was already covering his forehead.

This is the worst player he’s ever taken.

Li Wan held the ball to the front court again, Kobe still did not come out to catch the ball, Phil Jackson also noticed this scene, and turned to Phil Handy next to him: “You have a good relationship with Kobe, you help me ask him these two days, is he willing to accept dual core?” ”

Kupchek did a good job of secrecy, and only four people in the whole team knew about him, Li Wan, Kobe Bryant, and Bass Sr., and he didn’t tell anyone until the deal was actually finalized.

Phil Jackson didn’t know either.

At this moment, he looked at Kobe’s actions, and with his understanding, of course, he could see that this was deliberately giving Li Wan a chance to perform.

Combined with the gossip in the media right now…

He came to an astonishing conclusion: Kobe was willing to sacrifice for Li Wan!

Otherwise, it’s really hard to understand why Bryant did this.

After the first round, Li Wan already knew how to play, he pulled to the outside, slowed down the dribble, and then signaled his teammates to pull away.

Mo Williams stepped on the three-point line and waited for him, and he couldn’t help but look around twice, and saw that there was no one behind him, and he felt that Ju* was tight.

Then focus on Li Wan, who has already dribbled the ball in front of him.

Wow!

Engage in sneak attacks?

Can’t afford to play?

You are a little…

“Phew! ”

With a confrontation, Li Wan squeezed him away again to complete the breakthrough.

The Bucks’ mid-range area was pulled by the Lakers, unobeyed, and his handsome jump shot.

“Bang! ”

Odom didn’t know how, suddenly Xiongqi squeezed Yi Jianlian, grabbed the board, and completed the second attack!

After playing, he also glanced at Kobe Bryant and observed his expression.

Look, my little brother lost the ball, I got it in.

Then he handed Li Wan a trusting look: There is a brother, rest assured!

Li Wan saw that he missed the shot and felt a pity.

But the pose is definitely handsome!

And……

Is this what singles feel like?

In the past, Li Wan rarely let his teammates pull away and play one-on-one, and his style of play is more suitable for cooperating with teammates.

Just thinking that after going to the Magic in the future, he should have to shoulder a certain number of ball-carrying singles, so he tried it in front of Mo Williams, a “meat weapon”.

The emergency stop jumper doesn’t feel quite right.

The ball didn’t go in either…

But Li Wan just felt very comfortable.

The next shot was even more out of control, in the first quarter alone, he let his teammates pull away six or seven times, and he singled with the ball, the efficiency was amazing, shooting 1 of 5!

At the end of the first quarter, Kobe finally couldn’t stand it and pulled him aside: “Stop fucking singles!” ”

Li Wan looked incredulous, and these words could actually spit out from Kobe’s mouth!

So what’s with your usual those?

Li Wan asked with his eyes.

His eyes are very alert, plus when he stares at Kobe, he is full of confidence: I just learned you!

Kobe was actually a little weak-hearted.

“I, I stepped up at the crucial moment and saved the team, can this be the same? ”

Then there are “Who can hit 100% in key moments”, “Do you think it’s easy to single at key moments?” ” or something like that.

Li Wan felt that the atmosphere became cheerful.

In the second quarter, Li Wan resumed his normal style of play, calling blocking, attracting the bag and passing the ball, and catching and shooting in the open space.

The overall strength of the Bucks is indeed not very strong, coupled with Kobe Bryant’s failure to stand up tonight to “freeze” his hands and “freeze” his feet, consuming physical energy on the offensive end, and the extra energy is spent on opposite guard Michael Reid.

As one of several shooting guards to stand out in the “post-Big Four” era.

Michael Reed’s main scoring method in college was breakthrough, and it was only in the NBA that he discovered that his “crooked machine gun” could strafe a piece, which became the league’s famous “sharpshooter”.

But he has a dream to pick up the sharp breakthrough of his college days.

So much so that they are a little enchanted, can hold the ball to break through, absolutely do not hold the ball to shoot.

Standing in front of him is the league’s “best defensive” level Kobe, resulting in his very low scoring efficiency tonight, and he almost sprained his ankle during the process.

To say that this man who squeezed out Ray Allen, the body plate is somewhat brittle attributes.

It is mainly related to his current style of play, he is not a person who can fight high, he belongs to the kind of outside projection heavy firepower like 369 who knows how to pull art.

His problem is also Yi Jianlian’s problem.

The UAE also cannot play NBA-level physical confrontation for a long time, which is related to his unprofessional body polishing in his early years, so some media said that if Yi Jianlian entered the league 3 years earlier, the result may be very different.

Another fatal problem is that his shooting speed is very slow, resulting in him being easily disturbed or missing the best time despite his accuracy.

Before the end of the first half, Yi Jianlian came with a “Dapeng wings” style dunk, which caused the players on the Bucks bench to stand up and applaud him.

“Asia’s No. 1 quality man” is vividly reflected at this moment.

Larry was also a little frightened.

Then he showed a helpless wry smile.

No matter how high the talent is, the injury is as fierce as a tiger!

After the start of the second half, Larry put Villanueva more in the lineup in order to chase points.

This lineup has been running in for longer, and it is indeed more powerful.

This is also Larry’s difficulty, obviously he has a better lineup to use, but because of public opinion and management pressure, Yi Jianlian must always be given the opportunity to let him find form.

If only the team didn’t demand a record…

But after the season, Larry was fired.

The reason for firing him is that such a team has not made the playoffs, and his ability has been questioned.

The Bucks’ chasing momentum in the first half of the third quarter was still fierce, but then Li Wan, who lit up the “nerve knife” badge, used a wave of consecutive 9-point offensive to cheer the scene and tilt the balance of victory to the Lakers.

Seeing that there was no hope of winning, Larry put Yi Jianlian on the field again to let him adapt.

The UAE League, who rushed to the field, was cold, ran a few laps on the field, did not gain anything, and the game was over.

101 to 89.

The audience cheered, and the fans on the sidelines excitedly waved to Li Wan.

He stayed at Steadples tonight with a perfect record of 24 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.

If you don’t look at the shooting percentage…

Wave goodbye to the fans.

Of course, the Angelenos at the scene did not know that this was a farewell, and waved enthusiastically to him in response.

Before leaving, he went to say hello to Yi Jianlian again: “See you in the Rookie Challenge…”

Yi Jianlian scored 7 points and 4 rebounds in this game, and his performance was not bad or bad, it may be that he did not play much in the second half, and the air pressure was much lower before the game.

Li Wan understood his situation, but he really couldn’t help much.

When he walked into the players’ tunnel, a bunch of reporters rushed up like a hornet. Their questions were similar, both asking Li Wan what he thought about the deal, and the New York reporter showed their foresight: “What do you think of the Knicks?” ”

Before he could answer, the Los Angeles reporter next to him glared fiercely: “Not good!” ”

Li Wancheng was amused, but he didn’t say anything about the transaction.

When he returned home in the evening, Taryn was already waiting for him at home.

Tomorrow, the Lakers fly to New Jersey, play “back-to-back”, and are All-Stars.

After the All-Star, Li Wan should go directly to Orlando.

Taryn needs to help him send his luggage and help him build a house in Orlando.

Originally, Li Wan planned to buy a house, but think of such a small city as Orlando, and the strange management, his career cannot be handed over to them, Orlando is not like Los Angeles, I don’t know how many years it will take to rent it out, so I decided to rent a house.

“Let’s move over All-Star Weekend! ”

Li Wan finished telling him what he needed, and finally added.

Now that he is on the cusp of the storm, Taryn’s movements can easily cause alarm from the outside world.

After Tyren left, Li Wan went to lie on the lounge chair on the balcony, when he first bought this house, he was attracted by this balcony, and the result was not a few times to lie down, and the change came.

“Buzz! ”

Li Wan took out his mobile phone, it was already 11:40, Taylor sent a text message as usual, Li Wan thought it was “good night” again, but it turned out to be…

– Li Wan, come to the window.

Huh?

Li Wan was stunned for a moment, walked towards the window on the other side, and just opened the window, Taylor, who heard the noise, just raised his head and met Li Wan’s eyes.

The moonlight tonight is beautiful, the moonlight is bright and extraordinarily transparent. On Taylor’s face, she felt a little more cold. But seeing Li Wanshi’s smile, he melted this layer of coldness again.

“Isn’t tomorrow a Grammy? You actually haven’t slept yet…” Li Wan looked up at the sky. If you want to look at the stars, there are not many stars.

Soon Li Wan understood that Taylor was nervous for tomorrow’s “Best Newcomer Award”.

The Grammy “Rookie Award” is actually similar to the NBA’s “Best Rookie”, and it is really impossible to say how much status can be improved, but everyone can get it once in a lifetime.

Precious is precious.

“Don’t worry, this award is definitely not yours, go to bed early…”

Li Wan comforted.

Taylor looked up: ???

Apparently she didn’t see it as comfort.

“Prepare for the worst, expect the least, and do your best! ”

Taylor originally had some speechless face, suddenly thought a little more, and then nodded thoughtfully.

“Huh, are you not coming back until the end of the All-Star Weekend? ”

Taylor asked carefully, her concert has been decided, starting on February 17, 5 days in Los Angeles, then 5 days in New York, and finally 7 days in Miami The party ended successfully,

And in the 5 days in Los Angeles, Li Wan happened to be free one day.

She wanted to invite Li Wan to come to the concert.

Li Wan hesitated, but still said: “After the All-Star Game, I will be traded to Orlando, I should not be able to come back in a short time, sorry, I can’t watch your concert…”

Taylor was stunned, and did not speak for a long time, and Li Wan’s words made her brain shut down for a while.

“Deal, deal? ”

These were the first words that came out of her head blank.

Li Wan amused her appearance, and his hand was slightly pressed, making her voice slightly smaller: “This deal has not been officially finalized, don’t leak the heavenly machine.” ”

“I’m going to say it, you can’t leave? ”

Taylor’s response made Li Wan slightly stunned.

This……

Singer-songwriters, are all such brain circuits?

“Then maybe I’ll have to leave earlier…”

If the news leaks, the general manager of the three parties will definitely finalize the contract as quickly as possible, but I am afraid that this “back-to-back” Li Wan will not be able to fight, so he will have to go to the Magic team to report in advance.

Hiss?

Thinking about it this way, it seems to feel better!

Entering the league until now, what he is most afraid of now is the “back-to-back” schedule, which is purely the league playing hooligans in order to make money!

Taylor was silent, not knowing what to say, lying limply at the window, not looking up at him, and the atmosphere was a little cold all of a sudden.

Li Wan didn’t say anything more, let her rest early, and tomorrow she had to go to the Grammys.

“If you’re late for oversleeping, you’ll be the first Grammy!” ”

The joke was funny, but Taylor couldn’t laugh, answered sullenly, and looked up again, Li Wan had closed the window.

Eh, this man!

Pouting, followed by closing the window, Taylor went back to the bedroom, the dark room, standing at the foot of the bed she did not undress, she thought of that night, lying here sleeping Li Wan.

Think about her encounter with Li Wan, the bad things they did together…

Some of the excitement only belongs to the 19-year-old, and the 19-year-old is a bit of a head.

Moonlight shone on the table by the window, where a Grammy invitation lay quietly. Taylor’s eyes flickered, and a bold idea slowly emerged in his heart.

– Will you watch the Grammys live?

She sent a message to Li Wan.

Li Wan saw the message the next day, simply replied “will see”, and prepared to go to the airport to gather with his teammates. Before leaving, he specially went to feed the black cat once, and this “cat brother” brought him two female stars, but unfortunately he will not see him in the future.

It’s really… It’s a pity!

It takes more than 5 hours to get from Los Angeles to New Jersey, and the journey is not short, so you have to leave early.

Li Wan sat on the plane, glanced out the window, and did not know when the next time he came to Los Angeles would be.

The regular season between the Lakers and Magic this season is over, and if you want to meet again, you have to be on the stage of the Finals.

The Magic’s style of play this season has actually just been integrated, Stan Van Gundy looked at the “Mr. Billion” in the lineup and the two No. 4 positions in Turkoglu, which are reluctant to put on the bench, the brain pumped, gotta, Techcoglu played small forward, unexpectedly, so engaged, made the peak of Turkoglu’s career.

This transformation also allowed Stan Van Gundy to change the outside world because of his rigid and personality during his time with the Heat.

Li Wan went, and the chemical reaction had to be re-run-in.

Just like Li Wan came to the Lakers, the run-in with Kobe Bryant did not gradually spark until January, and when he went to Orlando, it is estimated that he will still run in first.

It is not easy for such a team to reach the finals from the original championship Celtics…

Originally, without Li Wan’s joining, the Magic did not even make it to the second round of the playoffs this season.

He didn’t think that with his current strength, he could improve the Magic team so much at once.

All in all, there should be no hope of coming to Los Angeles this season.

As the plane flew smoothly, Li Wan’s gaze also returned to the cabin, looking at Odom and others who were fighting Texas, he suddenly became a little more interested today.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, this brother slept at the end, and suddenly felt very sleepy and didn’t want to play. They still remember Li Wan’s “gambling king” card skill of “killing” three families by one family.

To play with him is to send money, with this money I might as well go to a nightclub to throw money, to go to a nightclub you have to have a good mental state, so sleep now …

Director Zhang also had to give a thumbs up and say: This is very reasonable!

After sleeping in the hotel in the afternoon, Odom came knocking on the door and told him to go to the nightclub, he didn’t go, not because he wanted to trade, subconsciously estranged, but …

“Back to back” can’t afford to hurt!

Seriously, he really hopes that the template upgrade will be upgraded upwards, and there will be a Hamilton, and the physical energy will be directly full…

At 7 p.m., the Grammy Awards began, and Lee Wan sat in front of the TV, waiting for Taylor Swift to appear.

The “Newcomer Award” is usually presented at the front.

It makes sense that NBA “Rookie of the Year” has results a day or two after the regular season of each season.

Commonly known as “appetizers”.

No, after the opening guests sang the performance repertoire and presented a few awards that Li Wan didn’t know the so-called, they came to the award session of the “Best Newcomer Award”.

The host humorously interacted with several singers nominated for the Newcomer Award, and after stirring up the atmosphere, the award presenters officially announced the results.

“Winners, the Grammys for Best Newcomer in 2008 were… Taylor Swift! ”

With the music that sounded at the scene, the camera was given to Taylor for the first time.

She was dressed very grandly tonight.

The golden curly hair poured down the side, revealing half of her delicate face, with a bit of surprise and excitement, she got up to respond to the people who congratulated her next to her, and walked towards the stage microphone under the magnesium light.

As she walked out of the seat, the hem of the mermaid’s tail-like blue tight evening dress fell, and the “tuft” dragged to the ground, her slim body was undoubtedly revealed, the light shone on the skirt, and the patch like fish scales reflected the light, making Taylor Swift look at it, it was so dazzling.

It’s hard to imagine that such a woman would also look at his photo **.

The applause gradually stopped, Taylor Swift walked to the middle of the stage, took the “Grammy Newcomer” trophy, and hugged it unconsciously.

The Grammy Newcomer Award…

This is what every newcomer wants.

Who doesn’t want to be noticed as soon as they debut?

Now that Taylor holds this award, it means that she is the best new singer of ’09 admitted by the Grammys!

“I’m very happy to receive this award, which for me, it is an affirmation and an inspiration, thanks to my team and producers, and thanks to my fans, I will work hard to make better music…”

After a very official acceptance speech, Taylor Swift’s eyes suddenly looked at the camera directly opposite her.

The director was very experienced and immediately realized that something big was going to happen…

Gave Taylor Swift a continuous close-up.

Exhaling slightly, she spoke again: “I was worried about whether I could win this award, and a person who became more and more important to me persuaded me to prepare for the worst, expect the least, and do my best… I prepared for the worst and won the Grammy Newcomer Award, and I was lucky… At this moment, I have the lowest expectations, hoping that our story will not end! ”

There are pauses from time to time, with a slight trill, you can feel that Taylor Swift is nervous and excited, even if her expression is calm at the moment, her eyes are bright…

The main audience glanced at the judges’ table, and there was also a commotion in the audience.

This one……

This one……

This seems to be a confession, right?

Everyone watched in amazement, and Taylor Swift, who had been staring at the camera for more than three seconds in front of the microphone, finished what she had to say, covered her somewhat low neckline with her hand, and bowed down.

When she was about to leave the scene, the gang of talents on the scene woke up like a dream and sent the warmest applause.

Instead, it startled Swift.

At this moment, the surprised reaction like a deer made the scene burst into laughter.

Such a careful woman, but did such a bold thing on the stage just now!

19 years old…

It’s really nostalgic!

As for the group of reporters standing at the back, they are rubbing their hands, waiting for the award ceremony to end, and rushing forward to seize the perfect position to interview Taylor Swift as soon as possible.

They had to pry Taylor’s mouth open and get her to say that name.

As for the media, they all want to know, the man in Taylor’s mouth… Sitting in front of the TV at the moment, although Taylor did not say her name, from her message, and this sentence “to report the worst”…

Say, it should be me, right?

Li Wan took out his mobile phone and glanced at Taylor’s “Good Night Every Day”, this confession if it were not for him…

It can only be said that Taylor Swift, the “sea king”, deserves to catch so many “fish”.

However, just “raised fish” should not be her acceptance speech at Grammys, right?

Now there is a very tricky problem…

Such a vigorous beginning, break up, iron will definitely be written into the song, right?

Taylor Swift, famous for writing songs and falling in love, talking about a breakdown, out of a song…

Li Wan didn’t know what kind of inspiration he could inspire her at that time.

But……

The man in Taylor-Swift’s mouth was really his words, and he should agree with Taylor’s confession.

1 meter 8 tall, and a delicate and cold appearance, the figure is not so “rich”, there is no “airport” on the chest, the most important thing is that the raiders have been around for so long, can you do it?

Then the awards were announced one by one, and the annual Grammys ended.

After the party, the biggest movement was naturally Taylor Swift’s confession, but no matter how the reporters pressed, Taylor always had only one sentence: “I want to know his answer, and then reveal more, before that, please don’t ask about him anymore…”

She remembered what Li Wan said that he was in the trading period and was about to leave Los Angeles, which was still under secrecy.

It may also be that she doesn’t want to disclose too much, and some media think that this is just a show she did for exposure.

Taylor did not respond to this, ended the interview, and in the helpless eyes of the agent, went back to his nanny car to change clothes, and immediately took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Li Wan.

– Have you read it?

Watching the message sending, Taylor unconsciously bit his lip, his eyes stared at the phone motionlessly, and his whole mood became apprehensive.

“Boom! ”

The door was pulled open at this moment, making a shrill sound, and Taylor was frightened, shrinking his head like a little hamster in a wood chip that heard movement.

It was her agent.

The agent, who had just looked helpless, was very excited at the moment: “Taylor, the NBA officially invited us to sing as a guest at All-Star Weekend!” ”

At this time, the NBA has long been more than the influence at the beginning of 2000, with the implementation of the “internationalization strategy”, the NBA that has become popular abroad, has returned to China, although it still does not exceed the influence of baseball and football in China, that is also quickly catching up, and the ice hockey league that was similar to their influence, far behind.

NBA All-Star Weekend, in particular, is a good opportunity for many stars to expand their overseas popularity.

This is a very good resource for Taylor who just won the “Grammy Newcomer Award” and has a certain fame, but is not so hot.

“I heard that it was originally Kelly Underwood, who finalized us after tonight’s Grammys. ”

Kelly Underwood is the winner of the variety show “American Idol” in ’05, which is almost as influential as “Super Girl”.

In terms of popularity alone, maybe she is still above Taylor.

This confession is good!

The agent laughed so hard that he couldn’t close his teeth.

Taylor was a little speechless: “Are you finished?” ”

After saying and leaving!

The agent saw this sentence in her eyes and continued to smile, but got out of the car very honestly and closed the door intimately.

Taylor Swift was left alone in the car, and his eyes returned to his phone.

Huh?

Just looking at the agent was speechless, but he didn’t notice that Li Wan had replied to the text message, only one word.

– Good!

The breath held for a second.

Taylor Swift has never found the word “good” so pleasant.

But happy to be happy, as a woman, not only Eastern, but also Western, it’s all the same …

Gotta ask.

Or rather, ask knowingly.

“What do you mean by this? ”

“Good meaning, congratulations on winning the Newcomer Award, this result is very good…”

“Ahhh… Oh…” Taylor’s tone instantly fell.

“And… Our story continues. Li Wan, who teased her, also responded positively to Taylor Swift.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little sour.

However, Li Wan reminded Taylor that it was best not to say his name until the deal was completed.

Taylor nodded and giggled.

She didn’t know why she laughed, but she just wanted to laugh with joy.

The beginning is always a wonderful minute…

The next day, the nation began to speculate about who Taylor’s confession was.

It’s quite difficult to guess, Taylor is still a newcomer after all, and the usual “shooting resources” of the media are not on her. She still refused to disclose it in the face of the media, but generously admitted that “the confession was successful.”

“Do you think Taylor is cheating? ”

At noon on the day of the game, Odom ate a meal, carefully read the report about Taylor, and glanced up at the “little brother” opposite him.

“It’s not! ”

“Huh? ”

The affirmation in Li Wan’s tone made Odom stunned for a moment, “How do you know?” ”

Li Wan handed a small piece of taco to his mouth, deliberately silent for a while, and when the curiosity in Odom’s eyes became more and more intense, he spoke: “Because Taylor’s confession object is me.” ”

Odom’s hand cutting the beef stopped, stared at Li Wan for a long time, and laughed, “Haha, man, you pretend to be too similar, I was almost deceived by you!” ”

Li Wan followed with a smile, without much explanation, the reason why he said it was that he knew that Odom would not believe it.

This guy always thought he was teasing him.

After easily taking out the New Jersey Nets in the evening, and only giving 10 minutes of interviews that night, Li Wan followed the Lakers to Charlotte to challenge the Bobcats “back to back”.

Let the Bobcat be cut off the horse.

Interestingly, although the Lakers lost the game “back-to-back” this time, even when they were physically fit, the regular season in the past two years met the Bobcats, and there were more wins and fewer losses, and no one could explain what the reason was.

Of course, there is another reason for this game, that is, the Lakers’ interior line is dry.

9 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 turnovers.

Li Wan ended his last game before the All-Star weekend with such an imperfect statistic.

It was also his last game with the Lakers.

Today’s 10,000 2 to give.
