The Pope of Basketball Community

On the evening of December 2, the Lakers flew to Toronto, Canada to prepare for the away game against the Raptors.

The matchup between Vince Carter and Kobe is very topical, but the Raptors' overall strength has become weaker this season and it is difficult to pose a threat to the Lakers. The record of 6 wins and 4 losses at the beginning of the game is average.

The Raptors' No. 2 scorer, Michael Reid, who averaged 19.3 points per game, was poached by the Pacers in the summer after his four-year contract expired. The Pacers management believes that he can succeed Reggie Miller and has a similar style.

Reed is a restricted free agent, and the Raptors could keep him by matching the contract, but manager Glenn Gruward hesitated and decided to release him after discussing with the boss.

The contract offered by the Pacers is close to the maximum salary. The management believes that a player like Reid, who has a single role and can only score, is worth at most 10 million. Any higher and it will easily become a junk contract.

In the past two seasons, Carter and Reed's two-gun backcourt model has proven to be a failure. The two were unable to lead the team past the first round. Their playing styles did not overlap. Carter attacked with the ball, while Reed was more suitable without the ball.

Glenn chose to renew Kirilenko's contract with a high salary to ensure perimeter defense. Once Reid left, Billups' statistics improved significantly. There are not many defensive stars in the Eastern Conference, and he is likely to be selected for the All-Star Game. Having been the third-in-command for many years, he was a late bloomer.

The Raptors' weakness is the inside line. After O'Neal Jr. and Brad Miller left in 2002, no star inside line members joined. The starting center is blue-collar Jerome James, who was discovered by Yang Rui, and the power forward is Jerome Williams, who is very weak against the opponent.

Last season, the Raptors signed Ba Sing Hao, one of China's top three centers. Unfortunately, he was unable to keep up with the pace of the game and failed to attract Chinese fans. The only game that left an impression on people was when he single-handedly saved the opponent's center "Shark" O'Neal from behind.

At that time, Ao Pang jumped up with the ball, and suddenly felt that his feet were empty, and his heart was shocked: "No! I am a hero, will it end here today?"

Hanging in the air, Ao Pang had exhausted most of his energy and just wanted to die quickly. Suddenly, he felt that his out-of-control body was surrounded by a warm energy, domineering and gentle, implying the way of nature, holding himself in the sky. His mind went blank, but he actually enjoyed it. When he was awake, people He was lying firmly on the floor, unscathed, unaware that he was in heaven or on earth.

The above is the imagination of Chinese netizens. The truth is that Ba Sing was completely unable to guard against Ao Pang and pulled someone from behind for a foul...

On the 3rd, Yang Rui had no training scheduled in the morning and went out for a date.

Nina Dobrev often chats with him online. She knew he was coming to Toronto and made an appointment to meet him this morning.

Since Yang Rui left the Raptors, Nina had to wait until he led the team to play away games if she wanted to meet him. Yang Rui took a break for a season, and the two didn't see each other for more than a year. Nina was a little angry, but when she saw Yang Rui's minion online, she couldn't help but chat with him.

This year, one of her hobbies is to write the names of boys she likes on paper, write random things about analyzing their strengths and weaknesses, and then throw them away. Every time she would come to the conclusion that Yang Rui was the best, rich, famous, and good-tempered.

If Yang Rui knew about her hobby, he would advise her to see a psychiatrist. She is showing signs of becoming a nymphomaniac.

Of course such people will not learn well. Nina is a typical bad student and failed all kinds of exams in junior high school. But she is very popular in school. She is beautiful and has excellent physical fitness. This year she represented the Canadian national team in the international rhythmic gymnastics competition. If she had been born a year earlier, she could have participated in the 2004 Athens Olympics.

Nina contacted Yang Rui and her family was very supportive.

In the past, Yang Rui was just the coach of the Raptors. Nina's parents felt that it didn't matter if the relationship was broken, she was just a sports star.

Things are different now. Yang Rui has made several movies that have been hits at the box office. Nina's parents were shocked when his identity as the major shareholder of Facebook was revealed. With such a rich man and such connections, as long as they give their family a little help, their sons and daughters will have successful careers in the future and save decades of struggle.

Like the Hornaceks,

The Dobrev family is also very realistic. The whole family wants to take advantage of Nina.

Now my son Alexander has graduated from university and wants to be a fashion designer, but his start was not very smooth.

Nina practices rhythmic gymnastics to feed her youth. As an athlete, her gymnastics career will come to an end when she is around 20 years old, and acting can go further than her sports career. She has good looks and will definitely have a better future in the entertainment industry.

Money and status are good things. If a person is famous and rich, no matter which country he is in, everyone wants to be friends with him. People who want to treat Yang Rui to dinner can line up several streets every day.

Yang Rui didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, but the two bodyguards insisted on protecting him.

Saskatoon, Regina and Edmonton are some of Canada's most dangerous cities according to crime data, but Canadians think otherwise. Canadians surveyed ranked Winnipeg, Toronto and Montreal as the most dangerous cities in the country.

Yang Rui had no choice but to let the big-backed Mark Farmar drive, and the little Rich Thorne sat in the back with him.

The two bodyguards are facing a formidable enemy. Only Yang Rui has not developed the consciousness of being a rich man, because he only provides money for investment and creativity. The company was developed by Thomas Bentley, and it was too easy for him to get money.

When he arrived at the Casa Loma castle where he had made an appointment, the two bodyguards kept a distance from him and were alert.

This elegant and magnificent European-style castle is located on the hilltop of Austin Terrace north of the city. It is only a 20-minute drive from the central city. It is the oldest castle in Canada. This was once the private residence of Sir Henry Pilat, the famous Canadian financier, industrialist and military strategist. Later, it was taken over by the government, and some buildings were used as schools, while others were used as museums and as a nursing home for some veterans. After 1937, it was operated by the K Club and became a developmental public tourist place. Many Hollywood movies like to shoot here.

Nina particularly liked this place. When she was a child, she often imagined that she was a princess and lived in a castle.

The time was 8:45. Yang Rui arrived 15 minutes earlier than agreed. He had some expectations in his heart. Nina will be 16 at the beginning of next year. Will she become more beautiful?

Today the temperature is a bit low at -4 degrees Celsius, but there is no wind and the air is fresh, which is very suitable for playing outside.

It's not the weekend, but Nina is in the third grade of junior high school, and it's easy for sports students to take time off. She came earlier and hid when she saw Yang Rui from a distance.

She wore a short velvet jacket with a personalized design, and the diagonal zipper decoration was fashionable and beautiful. The smoky pink color is very sweet. Wear it with a green slim-fit hip-hugging sweater, jeans, sneakers, a black scarf, and a white woolen hat, which adds a bit of cuteness.

She moved quietly along the edge of the castle, trying to play a prank and jump out to scare Yang Rui.

The little girl who is not yet 16 years old is very naive and thinks this will be fun.

Nina succeeded. She jumped out from behind Yang Rui and said "Ah", which scared Yang Rui and took a step back.

This playful way of greeting lovers on a date can easily leave a deep impression on others. Yang Rui was extremely surprised when he saw Nina again.

At this moment, time seemed to slow down, and her smiles seemed like slow motion.

There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent. One glance at the charming city, and then another...

Yang Rui was about to smile and speak when his style suddenly changed from a youth idol drama to a science fiction drama.

The bodyguard Richie, who was lying in ambush somewhere, appeared in a hurry. He was wearing a red jacket, but there seemed to be a yellow light flashing behind him. He made a gorgeous side dive, his body turned 180 degrees, and Nina flew away with a scream. Got out.

thump!

Yang Rui was stunned, holding his head in his hands, unable to believe what he saw.

Have I traveled into some strange parallel world? Should there be a monologue here?

(My name is Rich Thorne, and I am the fastest man in the world. To outsiders, I am just an ordinary bodyguard, but while protecting my employer, I secretly use my speed to fight crime. I am Lightning. Xia!)
