The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 409: : Everything goes well

The morning in Paris, France always starts with an exquisite French breakfast.

A glass of aperitif, sweet but not slightly drunk. The slices of bread are sliced ​​and wrapped with jam made by the chef, which makes people salivate. In addition to bread, there are various grilled vegetables, vegetable soups and vegetable purees! Fruit biscuits, poached eggs, salmon, etc... these things are already a visual feast just by serving them.

No wonder people say that the romance of the French begins with breakfast.

When in China, Henson skipped breakfast all year round. Of course, this also made him suffer from stomach problems. After traveling to the United States, Henson's breakfast usually consisted of simple cereal with coffee. Only when An Jiali was there, did Henson have fried eggs and sausages to eat.

After coming to France for so many days, every breakfast is Henson's most enjoyable moment. A beautiful day starts with these exquisite dishes.

At this time, it was almost mid-July. It has been half a month since Henson signed the three-year, $27 million contract in Bird's office.

During this period, although there was no competition in the league, all kinds of things happened.

For example, the Boston Celtics and the Brooklyn Nets reached an amazing deal involving 8 players and 3 draft picks.

The Nets sent out three future first-round picks in 2014, 2016 and 2018. They also joined the expiring contracts of Gerald Wallace, Evans, Senglia and Humphries. They also used to sign and then exchange for Bogans. With so many chips, the Nets only get Garnett, Pierce and Jason Terry from the Celtics.

Since Ray Allen did not renew his contract with the Celtics last season until the Celtics traded Garnett and Pierce, the Celtics officially ended their Big Three era. The signing of Stevens, the young marshal, plus this deal, undoubtedly shows that the Celtics no longer want to be so high or low. Starting from next season, this traditional giant that won the championship trophy in the summer of 2008 will officially begin to rebuild!

Before, the final obstacle to this deal was whether Garnett was willing to give up his veto power, but in the end this plan was approved by Kg, and the big deal was announced. And this deal also allowed the Nets to instantly form a "multi-giant" lineup.

Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Pierce, Garnett, and Brook Lopez owned by the Nets themselves, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Nets form a "big five" lineup.

Crash championship, this is the strategy of the Nets general manager Kim Terry. Although the Heat have not won a championship in the past three years, this multi-giant team building model still seems to be favored by Kim Terry. Therefore, he did not hesitate to use three draft picks and a bunch of expired contracts to form such a "crash championship" team.

But Henson is not optimistic about this deal. As the Heat’s old opponent, Henson knows very well that stacking up stars does not mean stacking up wins. And Kim Terry took three first-round picks in one go...Henson really didn't know whether to say that Kim Terry was mentally disabled or that Danny Angie's old fox was shrewd.

This deal was only the beginning of this crazy summer. In the following days, the news that Josh Smith transferred 54 million to the Pistons and "Warcraft" Howard to the Houston Rockets for 4 years and 88 million transferred to the Houston Rockets, which made this crazy summer continue. Warm up.

Howard's departure can be said to basically abolish the Lakers. Because the Lakers paid too much for Howard. As a result, Howard slapped his **** and left after playing for a season, which was really unexpected for the Lakers.

With the current state of Kobe, Nash and Gasol, coupled with so many unreliable role players, the Los Angeles Lakers are estimated to begin to fall slowly, just like their "old friend" Celtics.

The offseason trading and signing rumors are still lively, but Henson turned a deaf ear to it. Because of the Pacers' signing this summer, after Bird renewed his contract, it was basically over.

Henson believes that even if the Pacers do not strengthen this summer, the team's strength will improve a lot. Because next season, young people like George, Leonard and Jimmy Butler will reach a relatively mature state.

The only thing Henson thinks about now is to spend time with his fiancee in France.

The two originally decided to get married this summer, but Henson didn't want to be too rushed, so he simply turned marriage into engagement. After the two return from Paris, they will also hold a party at home to announce their official engagement.

The two rented a small villa in France, and no one disturbed otherwise. Those rich French breakfasts are all An Jiali's craftsmanship. Although it may be a bit unauthentic, to Henson, as long as An Jiali made breakfast, it was the most delicious.

In France, people care about football, but little attention to basketball. Therefore, Henson and An Jiali are rarely recognized even if they do not wear sunglasses to go to the street. It's like a football star walking on the streets of China, the Chinese may not recognize it.

This state of being like a passerby gave Henson and An Jiali less pressure.

Henson enjoyed his leisure time in France, his spine gradually became less painful, and the chest tightness did not reappear. And An Jiali found her second suitable career besides modeling-songwriting.

Although An Jiali is not a music major, as a rich girl, she has never stopped her lessons since she was a child. When she started learning piano at a young age, she is not completely ignorant of the professional knowledge of music. After learning to arrange music recently, An Jiali is even more out of control. Besides, a person like her is never afraid of lack of resources.

She plans to write an album with the experience of traveling with Henson this holiday. It has to be said that An Jiali's ideas are always wild. Even more frightening is that she herself does have the ability to turn wild ideas into reality.

As for Henson, he is now planning whether to change a house.

For half a month, Henson enjoyed the leisure life in the villa. What he enjoys is not only this tranquility, but also the supporting material facilities.

When you are bored, go to your backyard swimming pool for some activities. When you are bored, go to the garden to look at the plants and trees, or even just lie on the deck chairs and enjoy the mild sunshine of Paris. In Indianapolis, Henson had only two activities when he was at home alone.

Watch the video of the game and fight with Husky Kona.

"Do you want to change a small villa?" An Jiali was a little surprised after hearing Henson's thoughts.

She originally thought that Henson was not interested in any material life. However, it turns out that Henson is not a saint.

Nonsense, even if you have to use one word to describe Henson, you should use the word bastard. This guy has nothing to do with the saints.

"Yes, I heard that Carmel's house is not expensive. US$1 million is enough to buy a better villa than here. Independent courtyard, swimming pool, garage...Of course, It's still very quiet."

Carmel is a wealthy neighborhood in Indianapolis, where Wesley Matthews lived. Because it is a wealthy area, the house will naturally sell more expensive.

In the United States, you can buy a very decent villa for two to three million dollars. Carmel's price of around US$1 million is obviously higher than the ordinary market price.

One million dollars, this number sounds scary. But with Henson's current salary and advertising income, it seems that it is not too expensive. You know, the diamond ring that Henson gave to An Jiali is almost worth $1 million!

Therefore, Henson described it as "the house there is not expensive".

Think about it three or four years ago, let alone a $1 million villa, as long as Henson is not unemployed, he will be thankful...

"And if we are going to have a party, our current den may not be able to accommodate everyone. Instead of renting a villa for a party, it is better to just buy it! What do you think?"

After all, Henson was about to use his cell phone to check the house, but at this time he made a call.

Through the name of the caller ID, Henson saw that it was a woman who was calling. Indeed, Henson didn't know a few women except An Jiali. After all, he spends all day messing with men and dealing with men all day. But this does not mean that Henson does not even know a woman.

"Who is it?" An Jiali asked curiously when Henson was stunned and did not answer.

"Um...a player. But I don't know if she will change from a player to a coach after receiving this call."

Finally, Henson connected the phone. Sure enough, Becky Harmon's voice came from the earpiece.

"I have decided to retire. When will you have time to interview me?" Harmon was straightforward. She did not forget the conversation between herself and Henson during the All-Star Game last season. At that time Henson made it clear that he was willing to give Becky Harmon a chance to enter the NBA as an assistant coach!

Stevens just signed a five-year long contract with the Celtics a few days ago and officially became a head coach. The departure of Stevens also left a big vacancy for the Pacers coaching staff.

Maybe, Becky Harmon can really fill the gap left by Stevens?

"As long as you are ready, Becky, we can start anytime."

Henson smiled slightly. This summer, everything went well...
