Although she decided not to play for the Lakers, Shen Huan is still a good friend of Kobe and Iverson.
The morning after the entire Lakers team arrived in Huajing, Shen Huan took Zhou Xilan and quietly arrived at the hotel where they were staying.
The Lakers, who had already had a phone call with Shen Huan, picked him up on his floor.
As soon as she got out of the elevator, Shen Huan realized that everyone was there.
Whether it’s the team’s general manager Kupchak, head coach Byron Scott, Kobe, Iverson, Lou Williams, Dangino Russell and other players, including this year’s new additions Superstar—Dwight Howard.
Even the boss Bass came to China for the first time!
The 31-year-old Howard was tricked into joining the Lakers by Kobe Bryant.
He signed a three-year, 40 million contract.
Considering Howard's status in the NBA and his age of only 31 years old, this contract is very worthwhile, even if Howard no longer has the ferocity and invincibility of Warcraft.
Howard, who is only half in shape, is also one of the top three centers in the NBA today.
Of course, Howard didn't come to the Lakers to retire.
Kobe and Iverson promised him that as long as he could join the Lakers, he could return to at least 80% of his peak physical condition.
If others say it, Howard may not believe it.
But Kobe and Iverson said that Howard wanted to believe it.
First, because these two are incredible superstars in the history of the NBA, their status will only be higher than him, not lower than him, so there is no need to lie and deceive people.
Secondly, it is also because Howard saw the status of Kobe and Iverson last season.
One of them is 37 years old and the other is 40 years old. They can still maintain such good condition and even make it to the finals without losing a game. This is simply a miracle.
The third reason is that Howard discovered how Kobe and Iverson assisted Shen Huan last season.
If these two people could put down their bodies and help him seriously, he might as well think about his first championship ring.
With these three reasons, it is understandable that Howard signed with the Lakers.
Howard was very enthusiastic about Shen Huan and gave him a hug: "Haha, Shen Huan, we just had a discussion. Before we could officially compete in the playoffs, you retired directly. It's really touching. ! If only you were still with the Lakers, we can set records this season!"
During the preseason in China last year, Howard was with the Rockets and played against Shen Huan, who joined the Lakers.
At that time, although Shen Huan was also very strong, he was definitely not as unbeatable as he was in this year's playoffs.
Thinking that he could not compete with such a peerless master, he was naturally very regretful.
He's not bragging either.
With Shen Huan's condition, even if he is injured, plus he, Kobe and Iverson, he will definitely sweep the league.
The new historical record of 73 wins in a season set by the Golden State Warriors last year will definitely be broken by the Lakers.
And with Shen Huan here, Howard was willing to be the second boss without any complaints.
Well, that’s bullshit too.
After seeing Shen Huan smash the basket continuously, Howard was stunned and worshiped.
Even when he was at his peak, he never thought that he could break this reinforced basket!
The title of Warcraft is most suitable for Shen Huan.
Shen Huan also admired him very much, smiled and patted his shoulder, "Dwight, this year I will be sitting in front of the TV at home, watching how hard you work to win the championship, come on!"
"good!"
Howard smiled and nodded.
A group of people were chatting, and Zhou Xilan next to them was already stunned.
This was the first time in her life that she saw so many NBA superstars.
Especially Kobe, Iverson and Howard, any of them are historical superstars. Now they are standing in front of Zhou Xilan. How can she not be short of breath
Shen Huan also remembered his promise and told everyone that these were his college classmates and reporters at the press station. If he wanted to interview them, he would have to take photos and sign autographs.
Of course, everyone had to give face to this, but Iverson took the lead in laughing and teasing, asking Shen Huan if she was dating her.
After a while of excitement, half an hour had passed.
Zhou Xilan stayed at the hotel and had a buffet of Western food with everyone before leaving with satisfaction.
When she left, there was a staff member who helped carry a large box into the car. In addition to a basketball signed by all Lakers players and head coaches, there were also a lot of signed jerseys and signed photos in the box. Category.
This time Zhou Xilan felt that she had made a lot of money, and at the same time she felt that Shen Huan was a loyal guy and could be a good brother.
Naturally, Shen Huan did not leave.
After dinner, he went to Kobe and Iverson's room.
There were only three of them at this time, and it was easier to talk.
Shen Huan first looked at the X-ray film of Howard's back that the two brought over.
In fact, he didn't understand, but in order to create a feeling of superiority, he still looked at it carefully for a while.
"Time flies so fast, and it's been another year in the blink of an eye." Iverson said with emotion, "It seemed like last year's preseason was right in front of me, but everything changed."
"How could you have imagined at that time that we could win the championship so smoothly?" Kobe was sitting on the sofa, texting his daughter on his cell phone, and said: "Shen Huan, this time we brought Howard over. , you should be able to cure him, right?"
"Looking at his injury, it should be fine." Shen Huan smiled, "I've already prepared the potion. When you drink it this time, just take him with you."
"good!"
Kobe and Iverson nodded slightly.
They are not hypocritical people. Since we are all friends, it is right for Shen Huan to help them today. When Shen Huan is in trouble one day, it is also right for them to help without saying a word.
In fact, the two of them didn't know that although the marrow-washing formula for strengthening muscles and bones (intermediate level) was very effective, for Howard, who had suffered a serious back injury, what really worked was the dog skin plaster (elementary level) that was specially designed to treat back injuries.
But if Shen Huan applied it to him now, the effect would be too fast and too miraculous.
It would be better to stick it on him when they are about to return to the country.
It was at this time that Hao Ye's voice sounded in Shen Huan's ears.
"Ding dong!"
"The host has triggered an emergency!"
"This is the sincere prayer of 6 billion Kobe fans from another time and space!"
"The host must make Kobe promise that from now on for the rest of his life, he and his family will never fly in a helicopter, not even once!"
"If this task can be completed, the host will receive an unprecedented reward!"
"Attention! This mission belongs to the rare category and the opportunity is rare. The host should seize the opportunity!!"
