The Godfather of Basketball

Swift has an album promotion in Los Angeles tomorrow, and the two were on the phone yesterday.

Tang Tian didn't expect her to appear here suddenly, and he didn't come back to his senses all at once.

"Taylor, why are you here?" Hathaway responded quickly, with a slightly surprised expression, but her movements were unhurried, and she didn't even retract her legs.

Swift looked at Hathaway suspiciously, feeling familiar.

"I'm Hathaway, Tang's cousin, we met before." Hathaway said with a smile.

The two met two years ago at a private party in Wilhelm, but that was also two years ago. In the past two years, they have grown from small roles to big stars, not to mention appearances, even after makeup. It has changed a lot from before.

Swift was stunned for a moment, then remembered that this was Tang Tian's cousin.

Her childhood sweetheart grew up together, she had seen it before, and Tang Tian had mentioned it to her several times.

Her complexion also gradually eased. If it was that cousin, the scene in front of her seemed to be nothing.

Hathaway slowly retracted her legs, and then said as if she was talking to herself: "I keep walking on the runway, and my feet are getting more and more delicate, but it's just that I've only walked such a distance, and it hurts too much." , Fortunately, this guy Tang used to be a Chinese medicine apprentice."

Tang Tian also came to his senses at this time, and stood up with a smile: "Taylor, why did you come to Houston? Doesn't it mean that tomorrow's event will take a whole day?"

"It's Selena, she said she wanted me to come over and relax." Swift turned around.

Only then did Tang Tian realize that there was another person standing behind him, Selena Gomez, Swift's best friend.

Hathaway stood up after seeing it, and said with a smile: "That's just right, just now Tang also said that he would take me to try Chinese food. If you are here, it will be even more lively."

When Swift heard about eating Chinese food, he immediately became interested.

The three women came together, greeted Tang Tian, ​​and continued walking forward.

"Just now Tang told me a very interesting thing. He said that Chinese food has an advantage over Western food?"

"what?"

"Can you play with your phone while eating?"

"Huh? Haha~"

...

Tang Tian followed behind, watching the three women leaning forward and backward with smiles, he seemed a bit redundant.

The next day, after the training session, Tang Tian gathered the players to watch the fifth game between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers.

The game was very one-sided.

The Trail Blazers were played by the veteran Spurs in various ways, and they couldn't find their own rhythm throughout the game, and finally ended in a 73-92 disastrous defeat.

It seems that the two previous wins were not because the Trail Blazers played well, but because the Spurs did not show their strength in the away game.

After watching the game, Tang Tian also knew that the second round would be against the Spurs, his old opponent.

This Spurs team is only stronger than two years ago. The biggest change is Parker, the boy who suffered after being eliminated by the Rockets two years ago. This season, he averaged 22 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists per game. His strength has leapt. Sexual progress has become the outside core of the Spurs.

Plus the uninjured Ginobili, the unexpected harvest of Mason, the traded McDyess, the eye-catching rookie George Hill...

This Spurs team is more than a notch stronger than the Mavericks before, and it will definitely have the power to fight against the Rockets.

After watching the game, the relaxed mentality of the Rockets players became tense again.

Although the Lakers are considered by everyone to be the biggest opponent of the Rockets, no one dares to underestimate the Spurs in the playoffs.

The Rockets are preparing for the intense training, and the fourth game between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers will start again two days later.

The result was similar to Tang Tian's judgment. The Spurs beat the Trail Blazers 112-89 in the away game, eliminated their opponents in straight sets, and advanced to the second round.

At the same time, the first round of the East and West is basically over.

Not much upset.

Cavaliers 4 to 1, Celtics 4 to 0, both powerful teams easily eliminated their opponents and advanced to the semifinals.

In the semifinals, the Cavaliers will face the Magic, while the Celtics will play against the Eagles again after last year.

In the west, the Rockets will face the Spurs, and the Lakers will also compete with the Nuggets.

Among these four matchups, the Cavaliers VS Magic in the East and the Rockets VS Spurs in the West are obviously the focus of attention.

After the match came out, the reporters also seized every opportunity to conduct pre-match interviews, preparing to add fuel to the fire of this fierce match.

When the Spurs were training, coach Popovich was surrounded by reporters.

"Coach, against the Rockets again, do you have anything to say?"

"Coach, will the loss two years ago affect the morale of the team?"

"Coach, what do you think of Tang Tian? He just defeated Carlisle in the first round of the series?"

...

Popovich is very calm. He has been a coach in the league for 20 years and the head coach of the Spurs for 12 years. He has long been accustomed to these.

"You just said Don beat Carlisle in the first round?" Popovich glanced at the reporter who asked the last question.

"Yes." The reporter nodded excitedly.

Carlisle is one of the best Mesozoic coaches in the league. As a veteran Popovich, he will definitely feel uncomfortable with his statement. After all, the strength of the team is the main factor that determines the outcome of the series. not all.

"Yes, he did."

"..."

However, Popovich's next words left all the reporters speechless, and he even said "yes" directly!

"Don is the most incredible young coach I've ever seen, and he's going to be better than all of us in no time."

"..."

Reporter Popovich's words made the reporters even more dumbfounded, but slowly, they seemed to understand.

This statement, as a coach, has to be said to be very broad-minded, without the slightest prejudice, and can even be said to be highly rated.

But this evaluation is actually a mouthful of tainted milk.

Yourong丨Big milk.

Popovich's mouthful of tainted milk naturally spread to Tang Tian.

Hearing what the reporters said, Tang Tian couldn't help laughing.

During the previous Olympics, Ginobili had a lot of milk, but compared to Popovich, it was still a bit worse.

"I grew up watching Coach Greg's games. He is my idol." Tang Tian was also unceremonious, and took a big sip of milk.

This time, it also made the media lively.

The games in the playoffs were tit-for-tat, and most of the time they were full of words. Even the Rockets and Spurs had provoked their opponents before, but I didn't expect to wait for these two teams to fight again. Encounter, but it is such a scene.

This amount of milk makes people dizzy.
