knife point guard

Chapter 88 [First day of training camp]

On September 9, Suzy went to Cleveland. He and Carlos Boozer and Jason Kapono were on the same plane.

Boozer was a second-round pick in 2002. He played very well last season. He had 2 points and 10 rebounds and was elected to the second team of the All-Rookie Team.This season is his contract year, and he has been training with Idan LaVine in Los Angeles with Suzy, and what he has practiced most is mid-range shooting.

The relationship between the two became close during this process. Carlos Boozer is a person who looks serious but is actually easy to deal with...Duke players are usually easy to deal with.Su Xi nicknamed him 'Abu', which is very kind.He likes it too.

When Su Xi went to shoot for Playboy magazine, he also took him with her. He asked for the phone numbers of two female models, but I don't know what happened afterwards.

Boozer told Su Xi: "This season, I want to follow the example of Gilbert Arenas, and I want to get a super contract."

上赛季场均打出18.3分、4.7个篮板和6.3次助攻的阿里纳斯今年夏天被华盛顿奇才以5年5122万美金签走。虽然他是二轮秀，只打两年，但他实际上赚的钱比乐透还要多。

This has caused a lot of discussion in the league. Many people think it is unfair to the parent team, and many first-round picks feel that they are restricted by their contracts.

But for Boozer, this is an opportunity.

"So, Jack, you must help me. If you are the point guard in the new season, we can play more together." Boozer and Su Xi are very familiar, and now he can say anything to Su Xi , the unreserved kind.

Jason Kapono and the two are not so familiar, he is from Los Angeles, from UCLA.It was Suzy who met him for the second time on the plane to Cleveland.The long flight made them chat gradually.Jason Kapono said that Su Xi's performance in the NCAA was fantastic, like a Hollywood movie.

Then Boozer said, "Don't you know? He's been courted by movie actors in L.A. this summer. And I don't just mean adult movies."

"Hey, Abu, you better keep your mouth shut. It won't do you any good to offend me." Su Xi stared at Boozer deliberately.

Boozer laughed.

Suzy has been in the limelight twice in the past summer. When the police found Kobe in July, Suzy was also on the scene. They were about to start a one-on-one match.Su Xi smugly wanted to improve her talent, but Kobe was taken away by the police for investigation, and Su Xi followed suit, making headlines.

As a result, many people asked him if he was involved in the Eagle County incident.

The other time he wore underwear on the cover of Playboy Women's Magazine. His strong figure and bulging trousers set off a national craze. The magazine sold 59 copies, and the photos were reprinted by many basketball media.

Superstar Tracy McGrady also commented sourly: "If they asked me to shoot, there would be better results."

But the editor-in-chief of Playboy said very clearly: "There is absolutely no such possibility. Jack's sexual charm is not something he can touch. He is just good at football, but women may not like him."

This made the superstar McGrady unable to step down for a while.

After what happened to Kobe, he became the number one outside star in the league.I didn't expect to be slapped in the face by a playboy.But he can only spread his resentment on Su Xi.

By the time the three young men arrived in Cleveland, they were already quite close.

Although Suzy is the youngest, he just turned 19 not long ago.But faintly, he has a leading posture.After all, he was called Jack.He called people 'Abu' and 'Aka'.

That night, both of them and their agent stayed at Boozer's house.Boozer did not buy real estate in Cleveland. He rented a small villa not far from the Cavaliers' home stadium, Gund Arena.

The next day, Su Xi and Kapono became his neighbors. They each rented a house in this community, and Kapono and Su Xi bought a second-hand car respectively.

On the third day, they entered the training hall together, and the Cavaliers' training camp for the new season officially began.

When changing clothes in the locker room, LeBron James ran over to greet everyone one by one, he looked very aura.When he saw Su Xi, he gave Su Xi a punch: "Hey, Jack. When I saw on the news that you went to the police station with Kobe, I was terrified."

Su Xi gave him an angry look. "Azhan, don't you know me yet? I was just playing one-on-one with him. I was taken to investigate before the kick-off. I thought that after the investigation, I would be able to continue to fight one-on-one. Who knows... I didn't play all summer. Finished."

"Hahahaha." James smiled happily. He said, "Have you found a place to live? I built a super villa in Bath Town, let's come and live together. Although you are a damn multimillionaire."

"I've already rented the house." Su Xi said.

"Rent a house? You have to buy a piece of land, like me, and build a palace. This is your home, buddy!" James reminded Su Xi that he welcomed Su Xi on behalf of Ohio.

Su Xi said, let’s talk about it later.Then, he asked again: "Are you going heads-up today?"

"You're always one-on-one. I don't want to be one-on-one with you."

James muttered something, and he ran to say hello to his teammates on the other side.He showed 'a sense of control', and he used his posture to tell the whole locker room: this is his home.

Carlos Boozer said to Su Xi: "It seems that LeBron has entered the role of leader."

Suzy shrugged.

While talking, a tall black man with dreadlocks walked in.His complexion is relatively dark among blacks, unlike Boozer, who has a white complexion.

Seeing him coming in, Boozer quickly stood up and greeted him: "Ricky."

Ricky Davis came straight over. He stared at Su Xi with unfriendly eyes and a feeling of scrutiny.Su Xi looked directly at him.

Davis said coldly, "You're just Suzy the lamb."

Su Xi's eyes became sharp, he stood up, and asked Davis tit for tat: "Who are you?"

"Ricky Davis." Carlos Boozer tugged on Suzy's jersey.

"You're Ricky Davis." Su Xi returned the words to Davis in a colder tone.

The temperature in the locker room dropped instantly.

Everyone became nervous, and Davis glared at Su Xi fiercely.

Su Xi didn't retreat at all, her eyes were more fierce than his.

He didn't expect Su Xi to dare to contradict himself, the team leader, so strongly.

He was about to warn when James ran over: "Hey, Ricky, why are you here. I have something to ask you."

He pulled Davis away, and before he left, he gave Su Xi a look: brother, why are you so restless?
James pulled Davis away, and a turmoil disappeared.

Carlos Boozer patted Suzy on the back, and he said in a low voice: "It's okay, don't provoke Ricky Davis, he is a stingy person, and he will take revenge. He often asks me to give him rebounds on the court, If I refused, he would even scold people on the spot."

Su Xi smiled. He reached out and touched Boozer's head: "Abramovich, if he dares to scold you in the future, I will help you. No one can grab your rebound."

Boozer was taken aback, and it took him a while to realize: "Jack, are you trying to cover me?"

"Yes." Su Xi and Boozer hooked their shoulders.

Boozer sighed helplessly: "Brother, this is Ricky Davis' team. He said more than once... LeBron James is here to assist him. I advise you not to fight him."

Su Xi smiled and thought: Am I fighting him?
We'll see.

Suzy knew from the beginning that it was impossible to have a good relationship with Ricky Davis, because Davis was a Todra Massa player.

So, last night James called Su Xi and said that he would compete with Davis for leadership.

He agreed without hesitation, and said, "Azhan, your business is mine. I'm definitely on your side. You only need to fight me one-on-one once a week."

James agreed, but only in his backyard.

Su Xi is very happy. For him, it doesn't matter where he plays, the important thing is to play with James.

At this time, Tony, the public relations manager of the Cavaliers, hurried into the locker room: "Hey, Jack, come here quickly, there are more than a dozen Chinese media here, and they want to interview you."

Tony Mars was very excited. This is a scene that has never happened in previous years. The Cavaliers are a small team, and Cleveland is a small city. In previous years, there was no media to participate in the training camp.

To use the original words of James this year's summer league: To be honest, the fans of the Cavaliers are not as many as my high school fans, this is a fact.

At that time, he was playing in the summer league in Orlando. Tickets priced at 6 dollars were hyped to 50 dollars and sold out. When the media asked about this matter, he had the above paragraph.
