This Forward is Not Serious

West was a little confused.

This is a normal reaction after a person is hit by a ball.

Anyone who has played ball will have this experience to some extent.

But West is too short, so he doesn't usually play ball. Even when Lin Ying apologized, he was still in a daze.

He didn't come back to his senses until the referee came over to confirm that everything was alright and signaled to Lin Ying that he could go back to continue playing.

However, it seems it's too late!

Just like James elbowed Chandler earlier.

If Chandler hadn't gone berserk and punched James right away, he might have never had a chance in his life.

Moreover, the biggest difference between him being hit by a ball and being hit with an elbow is that it was an "accident."

If he was accidentally hit by a ball, and when he came back to his senses, he went to look for trouble, it would appear that he was completely careless.

So unless he gets angry on the spot, he can still gain some ground for himself, but now, he can only suffer the loss of being dumb!

Moreover, there was a burning pain on my face!

Black doesn't mean he's fine, he's really swollen!

Moreover, he had made eye contact with Lin Ying twice, so he knew what the accident was.

But Lin Ying is not a small person, and it will not be easy for him to regain his position.

In the United States, if you have money, you are the boss. Don’t talk about gangster background. You can have money even if you don’t have it.

Otherwise, where would there be so much feuding in Hollywood, and where would there be so much grievances in the NBA.

…

112 to 86.

The Nets finally defeated the Knicks on Christmas Day.

Lin Ying scored 21 points in the first quarter and already scored 38 points after three quarters.

It's a pity that because the game ended so early, he didn't have time to fully experience the feeling of "Zone".

But this game is destined to cause a big stir.

The Big Three in New York were bloodbathed, the Nets successively defeated strong opponents after the trade, Lin Ying's unstoppable personal performance, James was knocked down, Chandler was elbowed and punched James, and West was accidentally hit in the face .

These topics come one after another. It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s the NBA Spring Festival Gala!

One of the most direct consequences was that major social media in the United States crashed one after another after the game.

First, Facebook, which has the largest number of users, collapsed first, and then a large number of users turned to Twitter.

Soon Twitter also crashed.

As a result, people with nowhere to go poured into ins, which had just been online for more than a year, and then ins also collapsed.

All the major social media outlets are busy repairing their servers. This time it is really as lively as the Chinese New Year.

…

Lin Ying's place is also quite lively.

After the game, he went shopping with Swift.

This was Lin Ying's first experience of Christmas in New York.

The streets were full of people and Christmas decorations were everywhere.

Like in the past in Dallas, people's favorite thing to do during Christmas was to go out for a drive.

But a big city like New York is obviously different.

Moreover, I don’t know when it started to snow.

The snow is falling in pieces, accompanied by "Jingle Bells" playing from inside the store, full of Christmas spirit.

Swift almost shrank everyone into Lin Ying's arms at this time.

The moment Lin Ying's ball hit West, the unhappiness that had been holding in her heart for more than two years disappeared.

She felt like the small boat that had been drifting on the sea for a long time and finally docked in a sheltered harbor, no longer afraid of the strong winds and waves.

When she walked to the door of a store, she stopped and bought two pairs of antlers. She and Lin Ying each had a pair.

She took out her phone and took a photo with Lin Ying, then opened social media, eager to share her happiness at this moment.

Then she discovered that social media was all down...

Pedestrians on the roadside cast curious glances at them, as if they wanted to confirm whether they were the two people they thought they were.

Then Swift took Lin Ying and ran away.

It wasn't a safety issue or anything. They were followed not far behind by two fully armed bodyguards, simply enjoying the joy of chasing in the winter.

There were fewer people in front, and Swift ran forward on his own, as if you were chasing me.

Lin Ying didn't really chase him. It had been snowing for a while, so he could easily fall down while running.

Swift ran for a while and saw that Lin Ying had not caught up. When he saw the snow on the edge, he started a snowball fight with Lin Ying.

These detailed actions all verified what Andrea said before.

Lin Ying started playing with Swift seriously. Of course, he would deliberately let Swift hit him from time to time.

Looking at people smiling happily in the snow makes people feel warm even in this winter.

…

When he got tired of playing, Lin Ying prepared to send Swift back.

"Let's go back home to Brooklyn."

But what Lin Ying didn't expect was that Swift took the initiative to propose.

Earlier, Su Feng had completed the house transaction and the keys had been delivered.

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment.

Almost two months have passed since they started dating.

In the past two months, the most intimate gesture between them was kissing.

This may sound weird, but they really didn't go any further.

There are many reasons, for example, Swift’s “Elevation” is not Brook’s type that would make you think that way just by looking at it;

For example, they were in different places most of the time.

For example, Swift seems very innocent, and Lin Ying wants to wait for her to take the initiative, but Swift has never mentioned such a thing.

for example……

There are many reasons, but they really achieved the feeling of just falling in love.

And in the past two months, their relationship has not faded, but has continued to heat up.

So what Swift said was basically an attempt to take their relationship one step further.

Swift's next move illustrates this point.

She held Lin Ying's hand and used some strength.

Lin Ying nodded.

There is only a river across from Manhattan to Brooks, but because of Christmas, the streets were very congested.

After driving for a while, Swift suddenly suggested that they take a boat directly across the river.

Crazy, but fun.

Let the bodyguard behind him come up and drive, and then Lin Ying asked Su Feng to arrange the boat.

When they arrived at the pier, there was already a small yacht waiting for them.

If you have money, you can really do whatever you want!

After getting on the yacht, the two leaned on the railing and watched the night view of Manhattan gradually fade away.

At this moment, someone set off fireworks not far from the river.

Gorgeous fireworks shot into the air, then exploded and illuminated the area, which was so beautiful.

Swift unconsciously leaned into Lin Ying's arms again.

"This is the happiest Christmas ever."

Lin Ying lowered his head and kissed Swift.

This is a beautiful picture.

The yacht dropped them off at the private dock and then returned.

There were people from the security company at Hebend, so they didn't have to worry about someone entering their house from the dock in the middle of the night.

After the two took a shower, they lay on the bed.

Swift's face was already red.

At this time, she told Lin Ying something.

"I used to be a devout Christian."

Lin Ying didn't understand religion or anything, so he didn't quite understand what he meant.

until……

After one hour.

Looking at Swift who was already sleeping in his arms with a happy smile on his face, he silently took out his mobile phone.

Christians, especially devout Christians, are not allowed to do so before marriage.

So the meaning of Swift's words is that she used to be, but because of Lin Ying, she is no longer.

After putting down the phone, Lin Ying felt a little complicated.

He doesn't have any virginity complex. In his previous life, the ratio of men to women was already very unbalanced, so it would be great if he could find a wife.

So he wouldn't have had any trouble when he was in love with Brooke before.

But there are two completely different concepts.

Only those who have experienced it know how much responsibility that moment will give people.

Not to mention Swift because he gave up on his beliefs.

He remembered the promise Andrea had made before.

He will protect his beloved girl well.

He lowered his head and kissed Swift's forehead, causing the latter to murmur.

He put Swift on the bed, covered her with the quilt, then cut up the sheets and put them away.

Swift would probably want to keep it.

Then he left a note and drove to the training facility in Newark.

The feeling of "Zone" tonight was so wonderful that he wanted to go to the training ground to reflect on it, otherwise he might not be able to find it again tomorrow.

As the night got darker, there were fewer cars on the road. Because they were so close, it didn't take long for him to arrive.

The lights in the training hall were still on when he arrived. When he went in, he saw Butler sweating profusely but still training inside.

When he was with the Suns, Holiday trained with him.

When he arrived at the Nets, this person became Butler.

He graduated from the University of Texas, and I don’t know if he and Durant brought him up. They all like training very much.

And Butler is the craziest of them all.

Since he arrived at the Nets, he can be seen every time he goes to the training ground, and every time he leaves later than himself.

This may not sound like much, but you have to know that Lin Ying is a training freak himself.

So he often worries whether Butler will wear him out.

But in the end, he came to another conclusion: there are people in this world who are full of resistance to sex.

Speaking of which, there are people like this in the NBA. The iron man AC Green has played in the NBA for 15 seasons, played full attendance in 14 seasons, and only missed 3 games.

Lin Ying finished practicing and was about to go back, but Butler still didn't leave...

"You still want to practice?"

Lin Ying couldn't help but ask.

"When I go back, I'm alone and don't know what to do. It's better to be in the training hall, where I can continue training after I've rested."

Butler said with a smile, looking silly.

In fact, Lin Ying knew about Butler's story in his previous life.

Compared with another Butler, Caron Butler, his story is even worse.

The classic American plot of a father abandoning his wife and son is no longer the focus.

The point is that his mother kicked him out of the house when he was thirteen because she disliked him for being ugly!

Think about Durant, Iverson, and Caron Butler. They all had good mothers, but Butler became an orphan directly and could only survive by wandering and boarding.

If it weren't for the fact that he later met Jordan Leslie, who fell in love with him, it would be hard to say that he would have survived until the day he embarked on a professional career.

Moreover, Butler's static talent is really too average, and logically speaking, he is not particularly suitable for playing basketball.

He still remembers a very touching sentence from the documentary he watched back then:

Butler was the one who chose to give up for thousands of reasons, but he happened to be the one who worked the hardest.

Lin Ying reached out and patted Butler's shoulder, which was a silent affirmation and encouragement.

"Senior, can you teach me some ball-holding skills?"

As if he mustered up the courage, Butler looked at Lin Ying slightly nervously.

"Why do you suddenly want to learn this?"

Lin Ying asked curiously.

Butler in history is very much like the protagonist template of a novel. He started defensively, then slowly developed offensive skills, and finally developed organization.

But it basically took Butler until the end of his rookie season to develop an offense.

Now even if Butler joins the draft early, he's still only in his second year.

"Don't we still need someone on the bench who can handle the ball?"

Butler said, scratching his head.

Lin Ying understood immediately.

One thing that is easily overlooked is that due to the arrival of Joe Johnson, Butler became a substitute from the starter, and his playing time was also reduced a lot.

If he wants to remain competitive, he must be able to do more than before.

"Tomorrow."

Lin Ying nodded.

It wasn't because of the senior voice, but because he saw something familiar in Butler.

Train hard and desperately want to get stronger.

It's like a mirror. Isn't the person in the mirror another him?

Butler saw Lin Ying agreeing and nodded excitedly.

Lin Ying walked out of the training hall and heard excited shouts from behind.

He couldn't help but smile.

From a team perspective, Butler, as an important member of the rotation, will allow him to grow earlier, and the Nets will have a greater chance of winning the championship.

…

When he returned to Brooklyn's home, Lin Ying saw all the lights in his house on from a distance.

This made him worried.

When he got home, he saw Swift sitting on the bedside with her hands on her knees.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Ying hurried over and hugged her. Thousands of possibilities flashed through his mind in an instant, and even the plot of West's revenge in the movie came out.

"I'm a little scared to be alone."

Fortunately, Swift's words confirmed that he was overthinking.

This is a wealthy area, there are security guards outside, and the neighbors are all well-known people.

Like Andrea said, Swift is insecure.

"sorry."

Lin Ying hugged Swift and apologized.

He left a note for Swift telling her where he was going and that he had brought his cell phone.

But I guess Swift didn’t call because she didn’t want to influence him.

But no matter what, he did something wrong when he went to train for the first time the two of them spent the night together.

So early the next morning, Lin Ying asked Su Feng to finish some things for him, and then called the construction team to build an... indoor stadium directly on the land used for development.

This way he won't have to leave Swift at home alone for training.

Sure enough, 99% of things in the world can be solved with money.
