Chapter 13 Charlotte in the new season(2/2)
...
The Bobcats had not yet gathered to start pre-season training, but Boss Qiao held a party at this time.
So, Li Ke and his new and old players met for the first time in the new season in Boss Qiao's manor.
Because the distance is too close, Li Ke walked there.
He also counted the number of luxury houses in intervals, one, two, and three...
There were only five mansions similar to Li Ke’s manor. Li Ke only took seven or eight minutes to walk to No. 288, 139th Street, which Boss Qiao mentioned.
It is also a manor-style mansion, and it is already very lively at this moment.
"Hey, see who is coming, our FMVP!"
As soon as Li Ke arrived at the door, the old shark with a suit all over his body started to scream.
This was the first time Li Ke heard the title of "Our FMVP", but he was so ridiculous, so he rolled his eyes, approached Lao Shark, and patted Lao Shark's butt.
"So, Mr. FMVP."
"Yes, I'm also FMVP, only the guy from Los Angeles, only him is not!"
As the old shark chatted, he talked about Kobe.
At this time, Kobe, who was also at a party, sneezes heavily.
That's right, the Lakers also held a party before the start of the season.
Unlike the Bobcats party, the Lakers party is even more star-studded.
In addition to Lakers players and coaches, there are many Hollywood stars.
Jack Nicholson even caught Kobe and asked: "Kobe, tell me, can the Lakers get that Golden Cup this season?"
Kobe nodded with certainty: "Of course, Jack, we can certainly get that gold cup, just like those we did at the Olympics!"
The gold medal at the Olympics gave Kobe full of confidence. The new season has a new beginning and the Lakers can finally make a comeback.
...
When the camera returns to Charlotte, Li Ke is held tightly by the old shark and walked into Boss Qiao's manor-style manor.
Lao Ai was on the periphery, watching his followers smoking some powdery items, Li Ke shook his head secretly and stared at Lao Ai. He saw the fat around Lao Ai's waist.
It's so obvious. This summer, Lao Ai shouldn't have trained, not at all.
Despite this, Li Ke still greeted warmly: "Hey, Allen, we're meeting again."
Walking further in, Li Ke met Gerald Wallace, who was still full of tendons.
"Gerard, long time no see..."
Of course, what surprised Li Ke the most was P.J. Tucker.
"Oh, PJ, it's been a long time since I saw you!"
The last meeting between Li Ke and Tucker even dates back to the NCAA final in 2007.
It's been more than a year since it's been.
When we met again, both of them were very enthusiastic, especially Tucker:
"Thank you, Sheldon, Michael told me that it was you who asked the Bobcat to sign me."
"Seriously, PJ, no thanks..."
Li Ke said no thanks, but was immediately interrupted by Tucker: "No, Sheldon, I must say my thanks. If it weren't for you, I would have to go to Europe. It's really bad to leave my hometown."
"Okay OK PJ, I accept your thanks, but I think, after you thank me, I have to make it clear."
Tell the matter clearly? Tucker was a little confused, but then Li Ke's words made him realize it.
"I asked Michael to sign you, not because of the friendship between us, but more importantly, I know you, I know your strength, I know you have the ability to play in the NBA, so I asked Michael to sign you."
Tucker felt the word "trust" from Li Ke's words, which made him a little confused about what to say. He could only give him a hug to express his gratitude to Li Ke.
At this moment, Tucker needed trust, and Li Ke gave him trust.
"Work hard, play well, and play your basketball, PJ."
"I will, Sheldon."
Goodbye Tucker. Apart from these greetings and words of thanks, Li Ke’s biggest feeling is that Tucker has become stronger.
"Perhaps, PJ will really help us in the new season."
...
Leave the courtyard and enter the interior of the manor.
Li Ke met Lao Qiao, Bobcats' management members, and Sam Vincent.
He had nothing to talk about with Lao Qiao, and he had already talked about what he should have, and he had nothing to talk about with the management members of Bobcats.
But Sam Vincent, Li Ke felt that he should remind Sam Vincent to start the pre-season training camp in advance.
"Hey, champion coach, Sam Vincent, is that you?"
Sam Vincent sat on the sofa and stared at the TV.
When he heard the shout, he had already started laughing. He knew which guy was teasing him again. When he turned around, he saw Li Ke.
"Hey, Sheldon, long time no see, why did you learn bad things from Shaq?"
Needless to say, the initiator of this teasing method is Lao Shark.
"No, Sam, I'm just stating the facts."
"Okay OK, my Mr. FMVP."
Sam Vincent spread his hands, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and Li Ke also sat on the sofa.
After talking about some offseason topics, Li Ke then mentioned the pre-season training camp.
"I think we should start our pre-season training camp ahead of time, Sam."
"Open in advance? Why?"
"Because we have so many players, we need to get out of the off-season form."
"Too many players, are you referring to?"
"Allen, Shaq..."
Li Ke mentioned these two names, Sam Vincent thought for a moment and nodded: "Indeed, Aaron and Shaq are in a bad physical condition."
"Okay, as you said, start pre-season training in advance."
At the end of the party, Sam Vincent stood up and announced loudly: "The team training scheduled for next Monday is now ahead of schedule!"
Then, there were a series of howlings in the manor Qiao's manor.
Chapter completed!
