Start by Maxing Out the Attack Talent, Kobe Is Jealous

In the 2001 NBA Draft, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Wei Guo with the 58th overall pick in the second round, from Georgetown University. With that statement, Wei Guo became the second Chinese pla...

Chapter 32 Clippers Head Coach Gentry

After the game, Wei Guo took the initiative to approach O'Neal.

"Idol!"

Wei Guo emphasized the words, and only after O'Neal stopped did he say, "Idol, you are the goal I strive to reach."

The repeated use of the word "idol" made O'Neal feel much better, and he finally turned around to talk to Wei Dong.

tonight...

Judging from the game results and the statistics, O'Neal was completely outplayed by Wei Guo, so O'Neal was very unhappy and wanted to hear what Wei Guo had to say.

Wei Guo said, "You have always been my idol, and I look forward to our second match."

"The second time?"

O'Neal thought for a moment before saying, "There's still one game left in the regular season. Although it'll be a few months, I'm really looking forward to it."

"Why is it a regular season game? Why can't it be an All-Star game?"

Wei Guo reminded him, and then couldn't help but twist his shoulders and do an awkward dance, saying, "We can have a blast at the All-Star Game!"

This damn 'Shaquille O'Neal trading card' even has an awkward dance skill!

"You're absolutely right!"

O'Neal also joined in the awkward dance with Wei Guo, saying, "See you at the All-Star Game then."

Given their current popularity, it's a certainty that O'Neal and Weiguo will both make the All-Star team.

........

This was a Christmas game, and after the match, the teammates all went home to celebrate Christmas.

Even though Wei Guo had been studying in the US for four years, he was still unfamiliar with this holiday, so he was the only one who felt lonely after winning the game.

After the match...

Wei Guo booked his own plane ticket; he was going to fly back to Philadelphia!

All his teammates went back to their own homes and mothers, and only Cummings went back to Philadelphia with Weiguo!

The plane landed in the early hours of the morning.

As soon as Wei Guo came out, he saw an old man in his fifties arguing with someone at the airport. "My son is Wei Guo. He is a hero in Philadelphia. You have to help me find him."

Wei Guo broke out in a cold sweat.

The old man causing a scene at the airport was none other than his father, Wei Dafa. The US is not like China; some Arthurs can shoot you without consequence when they get drunk. How could Wei Dafa dare to get into a fight with someone at the airport? He was clearly drunk.

Fortunately...

Wei Dafa only asked someone for help to find Wei Guo, but did not do anything extreme.

Wei Guo quickly went over and grabbed Wei Dafa's arm, "Dad, why didn't you tell me you were coming to the US?"

"Hey, you little brat, you've finally shown up!"

Wei Dafa hooked his arm around Wei Guo's neck. "Didn't you say you wanted to eat beef and mutton from home? Yesterday, after drinking, I flew to the US with the beef and mutton. Damn it... the beef and mutton had to go through security, and they said I brought too much and would be fined... They fined me 20,000 yuan... 20,000 yuan... I've never seen so little money before... I gave them 200,000 yuan right then and there..."

Wei Dafa kept rambling on and on, and Wei Guo asked, "You still haven't sobered up from the alcohol you drank yesterday?"

Logically speaking, a flight from China to the US takes more than ten hours, so Wei Dafa should be sober by now, no matter how much he drank. Why is he still reeking of alcohol?

Wei Dafa, his face flushed (from drinking too much), said, "On the plane, the flight attendants kept asking me if I wanted alcohol or soft drinks. With my personality, could I possibly drink soft drinks? It had to be alcohol..."

At this point, Wei Guo basically understood that Wei Dafa had drunk too much of that cheap red wine in the first-class cabin of the plane, and had also lost his phone while drunk.

......

At this moment, an airport police officer came over and asked, "Mr. Wei, do you know this person?"

In Philadelphia, Wei Guo is quite well-known. Wei Dafa kept shouting at the airport that he wasn't taken away, not because the US police were gentle, but because Wei Dafa kept emphasizing that he was Wei Guo's father.

"know!"

Wei Guo said, "He is my father."

"Then you should take him away as soon as possible; he has already disrupted the order of the airport."

Okay~

Wei Guo clasped his hands in a fist salute to the airport police, saying, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."

Wei Dafa had drunk too much, so Wei Guo practically dragged him home. Cummings, worried about Wei Guo's father, also went to Wei Guo's villa.

"You're a good guy, young man."

After arriving home, Wei Dafa still held Cummings' hand and said, "You're staying here tonight, we have to have a drink."

Wei Guo knew his father very well...

He was a complete drunkard, but there was nothing he could do about it; he was already in his fifties, so why should he care?

Wei Dafa brought a lot of beef and mutton, which he had brought in after paying a fine. He wanted to stew a pot of beef and have some drinks with Cummings, but Wei Guo stopped him.

Finally, the guards fell asleep.

Wei Guo regretted it a little; he shouldn't have invited his father to the US, it only caused trouble!

......

Three days later, the 76ers will host the Clippers.

Wei Dafa also went to the competition venue, and he brought a lot of beef jerky. Before the competition started, Wei Dafa distributed the beef jerky to the players.

He doesn't understand basketball court stuff either...

Regardless of whether it's the home or away team, as long as they're on the court, wearing basketball uniforms, or sitting on the bench, Wei Dafa doesn't miss a single one. "Come and try my beef jerky. I brought it specially from China. It's ten thousand times better than your American beef jerky."

Blah blah blah...

The players couldn't understand what Wei Dafa was saying at all!

The 76ers were alright; they knew Wei Dafa was Wei Guo's father and gladly accepted the beef jerky.

But when Wei Dafa distributed beef jerky to the Clippers players...

The expressions on everyone's faces changed, and the expressions on everyone's faces on the Clippers' faces changed even faster!

What's going on?

An old Chinese man suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and the security guards didn't stop him. What's more, this old man even offered to share beef jerky with them.

"Try this, it's beef jerky I brought from my hometown, it's delicious."

Wei Dafa also warmly greeted the Clippers players.

"Dad, they don't understand Chinese."

Wei Guo walked over and put his arm around Wei Dafa's shoulder, explaining to the Clippers players, "This is my dad. He brought some local specialties from his hometown and wants you to try them!"

"oh?!"

The first to react was Clippers head coach Alvin Gentry, who took the beef jerky handed to him by David Wei and said, "Thank you, brother. I especially love Chinese culture, and I especially love Chinese beef jerky."

Wei Dafa asked, "Son, what did this comrade mean by that?"

"He is Clippers head coach Gentry."

Wei Guo translated, "He said he especially liked the beef jerky you brought."

"Since you like it, then eat more!"

Wei Dafa piled a large bag of beef jerky into Gentry's arms, saying, "Give some to your team too."

"Thank you, big brother~"

Gentry said enthusiastically, "I can't just eat your beef jerky for free. I'll treat you to drinks after the match!"
