Chapter 181. 180. Promise to Participate in the Slam Dunk Contest
Early the next morning, the entire Lakers team got on the plane and couldn't wait to fly back to LA. After wandering outside for so long, they urgently needed a rest.

Playing 7 consecutive away games is no one. The league really takes care of the Lakers too much. Except for the Lakers, no other team in the entire NBA will play 7 consecutive away games this season. of.

The state of the whole team can be perfectly described in two words, that is exhaustion.

Exhausted.

On the plane, after half a season of tossing, Tang De finally got used to flying, and finally lost the uncomfortable feeling he had before.

Nick Young: "Yo, Don, is it possible that your guy's phobia of airplanes is gone?"

Tang De: "What do you think? Don't you understand that I'm so embarrassing?"

After speaking, Tang De raised the champagne in his hand and touched Kobe who was sitting beside him.

Baibian: "Nick, it seems that this guy is really good, I don't think we will have the chance to laugh at him again, alas..."

Tang De: "shit, Hassan, listen to what you mean, you seem to be so disappointed?"

After finishing speaking, Tang De picked up the empty wine glass in his hand and was about to rush towards Baibian.

Baibian: "Don't, don't, buddy, don't get excited, I was wrong, I was wrong, haha, if you drink this cup, I will be useless."

Nick Young: "Coach, how will we arrange it when we go back? I think you should at least give us a day off. I'm almost exhausted and paralyzed."

D'Antoni: "Of course, we will have 4 days of rest. I have already decided that everyone will have 2 days off to adjust their bodies. But after the rest period is over, everyone will return to the team immediately. Shooting training cannot be missed! "

Nick Young: "OK, OK, great, Don, you heard what the coach said, so should you make us some nutritious meals or something?"

Nick Yang said wretchedly.

"Ahem, well, it should be possible. It depends on your performance. If I am in a happy mood, I will do it!"

Kobe: "Haha~ you guy."

……

Shortly after the plane landed in LA, Tang De felt dizzy. Let alone cooking a nutritious meal, what Tang De should consider now is that he might not even have time to sleep.

why?
Because not long after getting off the plane, Tang De first received a call from O'Neill, and then received a call from Cantor.

After beating the Raptors before, O'Neill once called Tang De once, and O'Neill mysteriously said on the phone that he would wait for Tang De in LA.

At that time, Tang De didn't take it seriously, thinking that O'Neill might be playing some tricks again.

I never thought that O'Neill was so active that he called shortly after getting off the plane.

It seems that this big guy really has something to do with him.

"Boss, guess who called me?"

"Shit, how would I know, you've already answered two calls after getting off the plane, and you're busier than the president right now!" Kobe said with a blank look at Tang De.

"Holy shit, do you think I want to, the thing I want to do most now is go home and sleep, I'm so tired!"

"So who called you? And why?"

"It's Shaq. It's embarrassing. I don't know what he wanted from me. He called me not long ago and said he would wait for me in LA!"

"Shit, if it's that guy, I guarantee he's kidding you, he's just an optimist, he's just doing nothing all day long."

"Ahem, Boss, is it really okay for you to say that about Shaq? But he must have come to me because he really wanted to tell me something. He said he is in our arena right now!"

No way, Tang De's plan to go home and sleep had to be shelved temporarily, he had to go to Staples to meet that big guy.

I really don't know what that guy is doing, it's mysterious.

……

When Tang De rushed to Staples, O'Neill was the first thing he saw. There was no way, O'Neill was too attractive.

Such a big guy, still a super fat man...

In addition to O'Neill, Tang De saw another person, and upon closer inspection it turned out to be Barkley.

"Fuck, what's going on here, why are these two live treasures here together? Are you here to exchange funny jokes with me, are you going to participate in a talk show?"

O'Neal: "Hey, Don, we're finally waiting for you!"

After speaking, O'Neill stretched out his big hand and gestured with Tang De.

Barkley was the same, Tang De had no choice but to repeat the gesture exactly the same as before.

Tang De: "Hey, Shaq, Charles, why are you looking for me in such a hurry? I was so surprised. I just got off the plane, and Shaq called you, and your news is too big. Are you well-informed?"

O'Neal: "Of course, there is nothing Shaq doesn't know." When he said this, O'Neal's facial expression was quite wonderful.

"Charles, tell Don the purpose of our trip!" O'Neill continued.

Barkley: "Listen Don, we're not going to beat around the bush, we're here to get you in the slam dunk contest!"

Tang De: "What? What's the situation?"

Tang De had a cute face. These two guys came to him in such a hurry to invite him to participate in the dunk contest?
It shouldn't be, even if it is an invitation, it should be initiated by the alliance. Could it be that these two guys were sent as emissaries?

I don't understand, I don't understand.

O'Neill: "That's right, you are invited to participate in the dunk contest. You may not know that every time we broadcast a Lakers game, your wonderful dunks always make us wow, so why not?"

Barkley: "Shaq is right, your dunk is amazing, the perfect combination of strength and beauty! And we have even talked to Mr. David about it, and he also wants you to participate, so As long as you nod, you don’t have to worry about the rest, and you can directly conquer us with your dunk!”

Tang De finally understood that these two guys were "not kind". No matter how he looked at it, he seemed to have no reason to refuse.

They rushed over in such a hurry, even David Stern expressed his opinion. Under such circumstances, if he refused again, it would be too unreasonable.

But, but.

Tang De had no intention of refusing.

haha~
It is still very interesting to participate in a slam dunk contest, and it will be even more interesting if we can win another slam dunk championship.

After thinking about it for a while, Tang De laughed and said, "I think I'm convinced by you, why not?"

Buckley: "You mean you agreed?" Buckley was a little surprised. He didn't expect Tang De to agree so decisively, and he agreed directly without saying a word of nonsense!

Tang De: "Of course, you two have worked so hard to come to me to talk about this matter. If I refuse again, it will be too disappointing. In fact, I am also very interested in the slam dunk contest, so I have no reason to refuse! "

O'Neal: "Holy shit, great Don, I think we can write back to Mr. David, if he knows that you will participate in the dunk contest, he will be very happy!"
