Chapter 157 Kind invitation (asking for subscription, asking for monthly pass)

"Lin, we haven't sat together for a long time to eat. I really miss the time in Davidson. We played together and lived together. It's really unpleasant to see you lose today." Curry said, his eyes were full of regret.

"Yeah, it seems that we haven't been together since I returned to China." Lin Yue said, recalling the past together.

Durant was a little embarrassed when he met his ex. Why is the atmosphere not right? Didn't he come here today to invite Lin Yue?How to start recalling the past, seeing Stephen's expression is still serious.

"Ahem, am I a little redundant?" Durant interrupted.

"Eat, eat." Lin Yue said.

Lin Yue ordered some pasta and a medium-rare steak and started to eat. Although he ate well every day during the Olympics, the food requirements were strict during those days. With the enemy in front of him, he concentrated on eating, which seemed more like completing a task.

Now that I have just finished the game, it is time to whet my appetite.

Durant and Curry were talking carefully, but Lin Yue didn't think much about it. He just ate when he was hungry.

"Lin, Kevin and I came here to watch the game of our alma mater, and to invite you to watch our game against the Los Angeles Clippers tomorrow."

Stephen Curry's words made Lin Yue stop chewing. The meaning of the former is very simple, but there is a mystery hidden in the second half of the sentence.

You specially invited me to watch your game tomorrow. Isn’t this just to attract players before the draft? The meaning of watching our game is very simple, that is, we are interested in you and want to win you in the draft, and you can take a look at the current team structure in advance.

"Whose idea is this?" Lin Yue asked, with a bit of anger in his tone. It turned out that this meal was just a "Hongmen banquet", and he thought it was a reminiscence. It seems that I was thinking too simple, Stephen, you have changed.

Lin Yue's expression changed from anger to sorrow, and Curry was a little embarrassed to be stared at by Lin Yue.

"I mean." Durant said, this time it wasn't that he suddenly had a high EQ, it was just that he really came up with the idea, and Durant told Curry about it at halftime.

"Today happens to be the game in Oklahoma, and our arena is not far away. If you want to go, we can go together after eating."

Durant has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

"If the media sees the report and how the public opinion will go, you don't know, so you still invite me." Lin Yue said pretending to be angry, maybe he was thinking too much.

Curry wanted me to go to the Thunder to watch the game today because he watched my game. It happened that I have been in the United States for so long. I wanted to watch an NBA game for a long time, and I can fulfill my wish tomorrow.

Witnessing the style of NBA games with your own eyes is also the only way to go in the future.

Thinking of this, Lin Yue didn't feel so uncomfortable. He should have thought too much just now.

"Well, which team would not be interested in your current level? Our manager also mentioned you, but tomorrow is just to watch the game as a friend. Don't you want to see how strong your former friends have become now? We really have no other intentions, but of course, if you are interested in us after watching the Thunder game, then we have no choice but to accept it." Durant said.

Curry on the side was stunned. He had never seen Durant so talkative. When did this guy become so eloquent.

"Why are you looking at me like this, honestly." Durant saw Curry seeing him with a strange look, and immediately explained.

"What about tonight?" Lin Yue asked.

"It's okay to stay in a hotel nearby for one night." Curry interjected.

Originally, the two of them planned to go back after watching the game. Now that they have made a temporary decision, they can change the itinerary.

……

"Boss, open a room with a double bed." Durant shouted.

"You are, Kevin Durant, the basketball star of the Thunder." The boss recognized him at a glance. In fact, after the local NBA team was established, the people of Oklahoma City were also happy, but Seattle was a little bit reluctant. The son of Seattle was seen as a hope there. Unexpectedly, the team moved before the dream was realized.

"One room for three people?" The boss glanced over and found that there were two more people traveling with him.

"Correct."

"Room number 9527, I'll take you there." The boss led the group away in person. He didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet the NBA star. The Chinese seemed familiar, but he didn't have much memory and couldn't remember it for a while.

"That's it, you guys have a good rest, and I won't bother you." The boss closed the door with a strange expression on his face. Three people share a room. Young people these days have a lot of fun, but it's not surprising to hear that NBA players are somewhat eccentric.

"No, Kevin, the three of us share one room, what do you think?" Lin Yue asked.

"It's too expensive for three people to open two rooms. Although one room is a bit cramped, it's economical and affordable. Save as much as you can in your life." Durant smiled like a dick.

"You have signed the contract and still care about this little money."

Lin Yue was speechless.

"Athletes have a lot of expenses. Now the contract is child labor. It's really hard." Durant said angrily, saving some money if possible, after all, nightclubs are really expensive.

"..."

"Then let's watch something." Seeing that the three of them were bored, Curry turned on the TV.

"Let's watch the game, there should be a game now!" Lin Yue said.

Curry and Durant looked at each other. Since they entered the league, they rarely watched games in their spare time. Unless it was the playoffs, it was better to take a break or go to the stadium to practice by themselves.

When simulating tactics, it is indispensable to watch it with the coach, and watch the game during the break, which is too torturous.

But since it was Lin Yue's request, Curry would naturally not refuse.

"The game between New York and the Lakers is nothing to watch, it's a one-sided situation." Durant saw that the two teams in the game were a little boring.

"New York, I remember that Westbrook went to New York, but the New York Knicks are not strong." Lin Yue said. The Lakers led New York by [-] points in the first quarter.

"Westbrook? The one who looks like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? I have the impression that he is in the same class as you." Durant looked at Curry, who nodded in agreement.

"This guy has a problem with his game. He likes to stick the ball too much. The NBA's offensive time is not NCAA, only 24 seconds. He has to dribble for more than ten seconds by himself. How can he play this offense, and he also likes to make strong shots. He obviously can't make shots. Compared with Stephen, you are indeed much worse." Durant's tone does not seem to like Westbrook's style of play.

"No, if you get along with him, you will find that he is a very good person." Lin Yue justified Westbrook's name. In fact, he is not as bad as Durant said. After all, he is also a high-ranking player, but his style of play is not like Curry. He can adapt as soon as he enters the league. It is normal for a rookie in the NBA to have problems exposed after just a few games.

"Lin, we're talking about skills, not character." When Durant corrected Lin Yue, it seemed that this issue couldn't be avoided.

"Let's not talk about that. I have poker here. I'll teach you how to play. It's very simple." Durant, who discovered something new, was instantly attracted by Lin Yue.

Lin Yue was surprised to find that he could also fight landlords in the United States.

"Lin, why do you carry this thing with you?"

Curry asked, he didn't know that Lin Yue had this habit.

"How do I know? Ask the author." Lin Yue spread his hands to express his helplessness.
