The Godfather of Basketball

Half a month of training and psychological counseling changed Kwame Brown's mental outlook.

Brown was originally dull and depressed, but now he likes to communicate with his teammates and tell some jokes.

Not even on the surface, even on his personal Twitter, he will interact with fans who support him.

It feels like a different person.

This change surprised Tang Tian. He suddenly felt that he might have underestimated the role of a psychiatrist.

On the plane to Los Angeles, the team members were talking and laughing.

"Kwame, aren't you afraid those Los Angeles fans will boo you again?" Artest asked Brown.

Artest's brain circuits are very clear, and such sensitive questions should definitely not be asked.

Donaghy, who was on the side, heard that he was trying to stop them from continuing this topic.

"Don't be afraid, that's all happened in the past 3 years, hasn't it?" Brown said with a smile.

It was a smile from the heart, and it could be seen that he was really in a good mood now.

"Yes, what happened in the past three years, if someone really booed you, you should respond to them severely with your performance on the court." Artest said and waved his fist. It turned out that he was cheering Brown up.

"No, I've put it down." Brown said and picked up the phone. "Look, I also greeted the fans in Los Angeles."

"Lovely Los Angeles fans, I'm back." Artest took the phone and read out.

"You are so boring, those people will not welcome you." He then said directly.

"Ron, shut your big mouth." Tang Tian said at this time.

When Artest heard Tang Tian speak, he scratched his head and smiled, then turned to listen to the song with headphones on.

Brown smiled and didn't care, put his phone away, turned around and chatted with Matthews on the other side.

Tang Tian looked at Brown, frowning slightly.

He doesn't know much about psychology, so he can't guess Brown's true mood.

But more than half of Brown's tweet may cause unnecessary trouble.

In terms of Chinese grammar, this is called ambiguity, or sentence ambiguity.

Brown's original intention was to say hello in good faith, but fans in Los Angeles probably thought Brown was provocative or proud after seeing it.

Hey! Los Angeles ever booed my fans, I'm back Brown! Just wait and see the good show!

He held out his hand for Donaghy to come over and chatted with him about the problem.

"His mentality has just improved a little, and it's not suitable to force him to do things he doesn't want to do at this time." Donaghy gave advice from a psychological point of view.

Tang Tian nodded.

I hope he's just overthinking it.

It was already afternoon when the plane was against Los Angeles. Although the game was the second night, the Cavaliers organized their teammates to train as soon as possible.

The Lakers are still the favorites to win the championship in the new season. The team has played health-preserving games for so long, and this kind of game still needs to be contested.

In the middle of the training, Donaghy came to the training hall suddenly and called Tang Tian out.

"After I started counseling Brown, I followed his social media. Take a look at this." Donaghy said and handed the phone to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian picked up the phone suspiciously, looked at it for a while, and then frowned into big Sichuan characters.

"Isn't this our lovely No. 1 scholar? Why, he turned into the little prince of Twitter without playing the ball?"

"The biggest parallel importer in history is back? Why, dare to accept Kobe's pass now? It's a pity that you don't have this chance. You can't play in the NBA anymore."

"Basic salary player, the worst champion in history?"

...

Facts have proved that trolls on the Internet know no borders. No matter which country they are in, there is always a group of people who like to use the keyboard to entertain themselves, commonly known as "keyboard warriors".

With the advanced technology in Los Angeles, the number of keyboard warriors is naturally not small.

"Try to persuade." Tang Tian returned the phone to Donaghy.

Now Brown is training, and he doesn't know what his reaction will be when he sees it after the training is over.

Sure enough, he should have deleted it directly when he was on the plane.

After the training in the afternoon, the players embraced each other and went to the locker room to take a shower.

The good record and team basketball play have given this team a very good chemical reaction and team atmosphere.

Playing against the Lakers was not an easy task. After training, Tang Tian also pulled Casey and Cassel to discuss tactics.

By the time they finished chatting, it was already night.

The three of them were about to go out to eat something. When they passed the training hall, they heard muffled noises inside. They walked over and saw that it was Brown, who was training in the arena.

No, it's not training, not so much training as venting.

Keep dunking under the basket.

Casey was about to go in when Tang Tian held her back.

"Come back and have a look after eating, let him vent in a moderate amount." After Tang Tian finished speaking, he dragged Casey and Cassel away first.

"It's said that Los Angeles is a developed city, but it's still too impersonal." When walking out, Cassel couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, this is Los Angeles," Casey agreed.

"But let's forget about those fans. You said the media, they even came out to join in the fun. They really didn't leave a way for people to survive. After all, players are not machines, but living people." Cassell continued to sigh.

"Media?" Tang Tian stopped in his tracks.

"Yes, you read this report." Cassel said and took out his mobile phone.

"Kwame Brown is back in L.A., but L.A. never needed a 'parallel champion'"

The headline of the news looked particularly eye-catching.

Tang Tian's chest heaved a little.

Although the relationship between him and Brown is also the relationship between coach and player.

But being one of his team members is one of his disciples.

These practices of the Los Angeles media and fans are really a bit too much.

"Ding! Release the system task, defeat the Los Angeles Lakers, reward: 1 honor point."

At this moment, a system notification sounded in Tang Tian's mind.

The system is still the same as before, playing dead most of the time, but if it really offends him, the host, he has a temper.

It's just that the basketball IQ that Brown lacks the most, and the cheapest one, requires 2 honor points.

Even if this task is completed, the reward is not enough.

In other words, no matter what, he would have to spend 1 honor point.

Ever since, the question seems to have become, is Brown worth the 1 honor point he spent.

Think of Brown after joining the Cavaliers, and then think about the reactions of Los Angeles fans and the media.

In fact, everything has already been answered.

He thought about turning around and walking back.

"Don, what are you doing?" Casey and Cassel asked suspiciously.

"I've changed my mind."

As Tang Tian said, he walked straight back towards the training hall.
