NBA's King of Talking
Chapter 57 I will definitely become a star player
In the next two games, Jia Fei got the chance to come off the bench and performed well in both, consistently delivering solid performances in his limited playing time. In the game against the Suns, he even provoked former Bucks star Michael Redd, earning five points.
He converted the 5 points of anger into points, and with the remaining 642 points in his account, he now has a total of 1142 points.
On March 11, the Thunder will host the Bobcats in a back-to-back game at home.
On the evening of the 10th, Jia Fei invited Kemba Walker to dinner at his home.
"Jia, your cooking is really good!" Kemba Walker praised Jia Fei as he ate the sandwiches and vegetable salad he had made.
"That's right, otaku are all treasures, just like fat guys are all potential stocks!" Jia Fei said. In his previous life, he lived alone in a rented house and cooked for himself. He could cook both Chinese and Western food. In comparison, Western food was much simpler than Chinese food. Chinese food was the difficult one.
"By the way, where's your dunk contest trophy? I can't find it anywhere in the living room." Kemba Walker looked around but couldn't find the trophy.
“I put it in the room!” Jia Fei said.
"You can just put it in the living room. It's a trophy worth showing off!" Kemba Walker clearly didn't understand Jia Fei's approach. In his opinion, it's good to show off, and it's best to let the whole world know how awesome you are.
"When I have my own house in the future, and when I have more trophies, I want to set up a special room to display all kinds of trophies and souvenirs!" Jia Fei said with a smile.
Kemba Walker smiled and said, "I thought you were low-key enough, but I didn't expect you to be so ambitious. By the way, I spoke with Coach Cahon last week, and he mentioned you on the phone. He said he was very satisfied with your current game and liked it a lot. He said he really liked your serious and down-to-earth attitude of starting with defense."
Jia Fei felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this. Although he was a transmigrator, the original owner had played for UConn in the NCAA for a year, which gave him his own social circle. Coaches and teammates were all members of this circle.
This is similar to the bond between classmates and comrades-in-arms; such friendship is truly rare and can sometimes help you avoid many detours.
“Jia, how’s the rent for your place?” Kemba Walker asked.
"It's alright, less than $1000!" Jia Fei said.
“It’s enough for you to live alone…” Kemba Walker nodded, but then immediately changed the subject, “but if a girl comes over, it will be a bit too small.”
“You know I live here all by myself, there are no girls here,” Jia Fei said.
"Jia, you're so handsome, I find it hard to believe that no girls would like you!" Kemba Walker said to Jia Fei with a meaningful look.
Jia Fei nodded and said seriously, "Of course I have. I've received letters and text messages, but you know I'm a man of principle. Women will only slow me down. I'm perfectly fine on my own now!"
Looking at Jia Fei's serious expression, Kemba Walker really felt he was wasting his good looks. If he were as handsome as Jia Fei, Charlotte wouldn't be a virgin!
"Jia, have you ever been to KD's or Russell Westbrook's house?" Kemba Walker asked curiously.
Jia Fei said, "I've never been to KD's house, but I've been to Russ's house. I went to his house for a party last Christmas. You know Kemba, his house is really big!"
"Big? How big is it? It can't be bigger than the White House, can it?" Kemba Walker also thought that Jia Fei was exaggerating.
Jia Fei said very seriously, "Let me put it this way, I'm telling you, I could get lost inside!" He wasn't lying. Last time he went to Westbrook's house for a party, he went looking for a restroom, and he ended up finding more than five... He didn't even know which one to use... After he finished, when he went back, he couldn't find the place to have the party...
This kind of experience is indeed extremely shocking.
Kemba Walker laughed: "It seems NBA stars are really rich enough to buy such big houses. Or maybe the housing prices here in Oklahoma City are quite low. In New York, a villa like the one you mentioned would be very, very expensive."
Jia Fei nodded and said, "When I have money in the future, I want to buy a big villa. I want to play basketball, swim, and work out in my own home, sleep on a big bed that I can do somersaults on, have a chef to cook for me, a butler and a nanny, and live like an emperor!"
Kemba Walker laughed and said, "Then you'd better become a star!"
"Yes, Kemba, I will definitely become a star!" Jia Fei said with great certainty.
On the night of the 11th, the Thunder hosted the Bobcats. There was a clear difference in strength between the two teams, and the Thunder cruised to a victory over the Bobcats, securing their fourth consecutive win.
贾飞本场比赛打了赛季新高的20分钟,得到10分7个篮板3次助攻1个抢断1个盖帽。
肯巴·沃克本场比赛手感不佳,他出战了22分钟,7投2中只得到4分1个篮板6次助攻。
Since the All-Star break, Jia Fei has been part of the rotation for seven games, and his performance has been consistently strong, with the team losing only one game. This has given him confidence in his future with the team. Meanwhile, two other rotation players, Sefolosha and Eric Melo, are still on the injury list, so he can continue to play in the rotation for some time to come.
In their next two games, the Thunder defeated the Rockets and Nuggets, securing their sixth consecutive win. They are currently only 0.5 games behind the Western Conference-leading Spurs, and if they win their upcoming head-to-head matchup, they will claim the top spot in the West!
At a time when the Thunder are on a winning streak, some good news has also come: Thabo Sefolosha, the team's previous starting shooting guard, will return in the next game against the Spurs!
But this news may not be good for Jia Fei, as he may very well miss out on the rotation roster.
The trade deadline this year is 3 PM on the 16th, and there's currently no news indicating that the Thunder will make any major moves by then. Of course, many teams make big trades quietly, but the Thunder are different. They're currently doing very well, their team chemistry is excellent, and the two rookies they drafted this season have performed beyond their draft positions. From all perspectives, they don't need to make any big trades. At most, they'll make small trades or look for experienced veterans in the buyout market.
There have been rumors that the Thunder might trade with the Lakers to acquire Derek Fisher, but there have been no further reports on this matter.
