The Basketball Court Swordsman

Anjali Ranadivi spent two hours putting on makeup and changing clothes for herself. She wondered if the makeup would be a little more glamorous. It's too light, and it doesn't seem to be bright enough.

In dressing, Ranadivi also tried many kinds of collocations. She kept trying on clothes, not knowing which skirt could bring out her pair of slender legs.

She has never spent so much thought on makeup and choosing clothes, because even if she doesn't, An Jiali can still become the focus of men's eyes. But facing the visiting Henson, An Jiali was a little nervous. This is the first time in her life that she has worried that her charm is not big enough.

In fact, Henson also came to see An Jiali through work this time. Just as head coach, Henson's work can be described as very busy. Although he just won the summer league title, this is just the beginning, not the end. For the new season, for Bird's playoff goals, Henson can't just rely on rookies, he must find a way to add a few good players this summer, who can help the team reach the playoffs.

This time in the Bay Area, Henson's main purpose is to use the Warriors to change management to investigate if there is any opportunity.

Just a few days ago, the Golden State Warriors officially announced that Chris Cohan agreed to sell the team to Boston Celtics’ minority shareholders Joe Lukab and Mandalay Entertainment for $450 million. Ceo Peter Gubo. Although it seems that the change of the Warriors owner has nothing to do with Henson, but in fact this is a very rare opportunity.

After all, every time a team changes its boss, it is destined to face a major staff cleaning. Because the basketball philosophy and goals of the previous boss and the new boss are different, their requirements for players are also very different.

The Warriors had asked Bird about Troy Murphy's offer a few days ago. Bird thought it was an opportunity to "rob", so he asked Henson to negotiate with him in the Bay Area.

Because of this, Henson has time to visit the Bay Area. But before the negotiation, Henson naturally made an appointment with An Jiali.

Although the two have not clarified the relationship, Henson is not stupid. He knows that the girl is more or less favorable to him. And what about yourself? In the face of a woman like An Jiali, Henson naturally has no resistance. The reason why he has been keeping a distance from An Jiali is because he believes that the age difference between the two is too much.

In a few months, Henson will be 31 years old. This is the most dissatisfied point after Henson crossed over. Inexplicably, he was 7 years old. And An Jiali, she is just a little girl who has not graduated from university.

Henson knows that in the NBA, there are countless examples of old coaches marrying young wives, and Henson's age is in the NBA, he is definitely an out-and-out young coach. But he still didn't know whether he and An Jiali were 10 years old, whether it was just a momentary brainstorm for both sides, or whether they could really spark some sparks.

When Henson saw An Jiali in the agreed restaurant, he almost fell from the chair because of the amazing place.

Today, An Jiali wore a tight black slit long skirt. The skirt outlined An Jiali's perfect figure. The two looming long legs stirred the madness in Henson's heart again and again.

"Sorry, there was a traffic jam just now." An Jiali smiled slightly, but Henson, who had always been known for her calmness, felt that she was almost out of control.

"Sit down, waiter, order food." But Henson didn't show the face of his old virgin. He still looked dignified, mature and calm. These are where Henson most attracted An Jiali.

"At this time last year, you were even a scout. Now, you have become a head coach. Henson, how did you do it?" After ordering, An Jiali looked at the man before her in disbelief.

In the past, Abby Hornacek also said that scouts have nothing to do, because they are basically unlikely to enter the coaching staff. Without entering the coaching staff, you will never be able to climb to a higher level of management. Well now, Abby's father is still the shooting coach of the Jazz, and the scout who was so disgusted by her at the beginning is already a real head coach!

"I don't know how I did it, but I think you must have brought me a lot of good luck. You are welcome to watch in Indianapolis next season. Bird gave me three packages this year. , I don’t know who to give it to. But for sure, one has to be left for you.” Henson said, handing An Jiali the universal package for all the Pacers games next season.

In fact, Henson really doesn't know how to deal with these three sets of tickets. His friends are either players or coaches. Such people do not need sets of tickets. After all, their job is to play games. Outside of work, Henson has no relatives, and An Jiali is Henson's only friend.

An Jiali happily accepted the gift Henson gave herself, and then immediately regretted it secretly. Why didn't she expect to prepare a gift for Henson?

"Thank you so much, I must go to the games often! By the way, Henson, you can come to my house tonight..."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, An Jiali. Tonight, I have an appointment with Bird, President of the Golden State Warriors, Bowyer Myers. You know, this kind of work is always indispensable during the offseason each year." Henson reluctantly Spread his hands, originally this kind of thing today has nothing to do with the coach, but Byrd has to pull him together, saying that it is to learn the negotiation skills in the NBA, which is not harmful to him.

Henson didn't know why he had to learn to negotiate. It seems that the scope of the head coach's work is broader than Henson imagined.

"Oh..." An Jiali was a little disappointed. It was hard for Abby Hornacek not to return to the apartment today. An Jiali originally wanted to bring Henson home to the right place...

"But it doesn't matter. In mid-August, if you have time, we can go out together. During that time, my work is not too busy, so I shouldn't be disturbed by these messy things."

After listening to Henson's words, An Jiali's eyes flashed again. Is he... actively asking himself?

"What's the matter?" Henson was a little embarrassed to see An Jiali staring at herself.

"No...nothing! Thank you, Henson."

With a low-cut long skirt and long legs, Henson's appetite for eating was much better looking at An Jiali who was sitting across from him. But after lunch and hurriedly sent An Jiali back to school, Henson had to say goodbye to him. Byrd was almost time to arrive, he didn't dare to let him wait for him.

Before leaving, An Jiali mustered up the courage to kiss Henson on the cheek. In the United States, kissing on the cheek between good friends may not be a big deal. But both Henson and An Jiali knew that this kiss was not just a courtesy between good friends.

Henson's heart must be tumbling at this time, but there is no way, he can't give up work because of a little girl.

"Okay, call me in August." After saying that, Henson turned and hurriedly got into the taxi, leaving An Jiali alone, standing downstairs in the student apartment, reluctant to leave.

Once again, Henson had to stay away from her because of work, just like his father did. Why can't there be a mature man by his side who can always accompany him? Watching Henson's taxi disappear at the corner of uCB's campus, An Jiali's heart had already gone with him.

? At this moment, she kept thinking about all possible possibilities to approach Henson in her mind. Women's thoughts are often beyond ordinary people's imagination, especially when it comes to love.

Why did Henson leave in a hurry today? Because the Golden State Warriors changed their boss, Bird thought there was a chance, so he called him.

"Change boss..." An Jiali pecked at this, and she suddenly thought of a way to keep Henson by her side.

Buy the Indiana Pacers! Let him do some work that doesn't have to run around!

Of course An Jiali can't afford an NBA team, but his father Vivik Ranadivi has such financial strength. Most importantly, as a fan, his father also has the idea of ​​entering the NBA. Currently, Vivek is preparing to start his own basketball career in Sacramento, but maybe An Jiali can make her father turn his attention to Indianapolis?

She also heard that the Pacers are now very keen to absorb another big consortium. After all, in this era, if a team is reluctant to invest heavily, it is difficult for them to make a difference. The Pacers owner Herbert Simon, obviously does not want to bear those high expenses alone.

Without even thinking about it, An Jiali immediately dialed her father's phone. Women are much crazier than men for love...

Henson didn't know at this time that An Jiali had the idea of ​​buying the Pacers for herself. After he met Bird, there was only one thing in his mind-how to pit the Golden State Warriors well.

Because the Warriors actively ask for prices, the party who usually asks for prices is relatively passive from the beginning of the negotiation. It just happened that Troy Murphy was not in Henson's long-term plan, so he and Bird hit it off and they must take some of the players they need from the Warriors.

But before he got to Oracle Arena, Bird received a call. After the call, Bird asked the driver to stop the car, holding his head in his hands in annoyance.

"Damn Knicks, damn!" Bird cursed.

"What's the matter? What's the matter with the Knicks?" Henson looked at Bird nervously. He had never seen Bird so angry.

"The Knicks traded David Lee, and the Warriors almost used half of the team for this. We have no chance, Henson, the Warriors have got the players they want, and we have lost what we want. In other words, we were robbed! The **** New Yorker got on the ground first!" At the thought of the Warriors’ gold mine being first digged by the Knicks, Bird was furious. The most feared thing in trading is to slow down.

Henson sighed after listening. After getting David Lee, Murphy's attraction to the Warriors is not so great. The same white insider who can shoot, David Lee is an All-Star level, and Murphy is just a qualified starter. Although he averaged a double-double in the first two seasons, Murphy is still unable to compare with David Lee. In an instant, the Warriors changed from passive to active.

"It's okay, it's still growing this summer, Bird. I think we still have a chance to build the lineup we want. The Golden State Warriors can't, let's find someone else." Henson patted Bird on the shoulder, and he suddenly realized ......

The trading battle in the business field seems to be as interesting as the coaching game.
