Chapter 127 Los Angeles, I'm Back
Under the strong request of all his teammates, Ye Feng simply extravagantly invited everyone to the bar to have a good night.However, the teammates were quite kind, they didn't even order those shockingly priced drinks, basically one or two cocktails per person, and let Ye Feng go.For Ye Feng, this is of course completely possible. After all, he is still a poor man. In terms of pocket money, Ye Ning and Guo Yu are not like domestic parents who will "support" when they have nothing to do. Basically, Ye Feng When spending the money you earn, before you get a big contract, you can save as much as you can.
But the key issue now is not the All-Star game to be held next year, but the upcoming New Year's Day.Even after living in the United States for such a long time, Ye Feng still has a strong interest in domestic traditional festivals. This is specially cultivated by Ye Ning and his wife. They don't want their son to become a yellow-skinned American. The roots are still in China.With the excitement of New Year's Day approaching, Ye Feng played well in the next games. The team also scored 5 wins and 2 losses, improving their record to 20 wins and 12 losses, ranking fifth in the Western Conference.
It is worth mentioning that in the game against the Suns at home on December 12, Roy made 18 of 27 shots and 14 of 21 free throws. 19 points, but also contributed 5 rebounds and 52 assists.His new personal career high did not turn into "mileage sorrow", and the Blazers beat the Suns 5 to 6, making his 124 points seem very meaningful.After the game, Roy was also very excited, and treated everyone to a meal out of his own pocket the next day.As the cornerstone of the team's support, Roy's handwriting is much greater than Ye Feng's. Although he is still in the rookie contract period, as the captain, it is impossible to be stingy.
After defeating the Celtics in the Rose Garden, the Trail Blazers' 2008 games were all over. For the first time, Ye Feng wanted to thank the guy in the NBA who arranged the team's schedule. For him, this schedule was perfect.From December 12rd to 23th, the Blazers played four consecutive home games, and their first game in 30 was on January 2009nd, also at home against the Hornets, that is to say, there were two days in between. There is no competition, which also makes Ye Feng have time to fly back to Los Angeles to spend New Year's Day with his parents, which is very important to him.
The team has a good record recently, and McMillan is also very talkative, Ye Feng wonders if he knows the importance of New Year's Day to the Chinese people, or why would he immediately give leave as soon as he heard that Ye Feng will return to Los Angeles in those two days?In fact, he thought too much. Americans also value the end of the year and the beginning of the new year. Maybe they don’t understand the Chinese New Year, but they are still very interested in New Year’s Day, a festival that connects the past and the beginning of the new year.After getting the head coach's approval, Ye Feng called his mother directly and told her that he would fly back to celebrate with them on New Year's Day.
Guo Yu was overjoyed when she received her son's phone call. She was not as ambitious as Ye Ning. To Ye Ning, Ye Feng was the continuation of his own basketball dream, but Guo Yu hoped that his son could go home often. Take a break during the offseason.If possible, she even hopes that her son will stay in Los Angeles to play. Isn't there still two teams, the Lakers and the Clippers?But now Portland is also a good choice, at least Ye Feng has not been selected by the eastern team. Although the transportation in the United States is very developed, it is still difficult to shorten the time from the east to the west, so it is not easy to go home. convenient.
There was nothing to tidy up in the apartment. After all, there were only two days of vacation, and he usually had to go out for consecutive away games or even a week, so Ye Feng carried a bag very conveniently, stuffed his notebook and tablet computer, and added A few sets of clothes and no need for a suitcase. I took a taxi directly to the airport to catch a flight to Los Angeles.Strictly speaking, after moving to the United States, Ye Feng has never been away from home for a long time like now. Before that, whether it was elementary school, middle school or university, he had been promoted step by step in the Los Angeles area. Joining the Trail Blazers was his first choice. left home for the first time.
So this short vacation, he can be said to be eager to return home. For this reason, he did not hesitate to buy a red-eye flight to board the plane soon after the game with the Celtics.The so-called red-eye flight refers to the night flight normally arranged by the airline, generally in order to improve the utilization rate of the aircraft, and the airline uses the idle time of the night aircraft to arrange the flight in order to reduce the flight cost.Generally speaking, business people prefer red-eye flights, which usually take off from the west coast of the United States after 9:[-] p.m. and arrive in cities on the east coast the next morning."Red-eye flights" got their name because most of the passengers disembarked with sleepy eyes.
Ye Feng doesn't think there is anything wrong with a red-eye flight, after all, he can still go home and have breakfast.As for catching up on airplane sleep, come on, is that still a thing for NBA players?They have long learned how to fall asleep quickly on the plane, and seize all available time to replenish their physical strength.What made Ye Feng feel a little dark was that when he was waiting at the Portland International Airport at night, several fans recognized him and wanted him to sign his clothes.In fact, this is quite normal. Generally speaking, the local fans spare no effort in supporting the team. Although Ye Feng is only a rookie, he has performed well during this period of time and firmly holds the position of the Trail Blazers starting small forward. He is quite recognizable as an Asian, and it is normal for Trail Blazers fans to recognize him at a glance and ask for his autograph.
After Ye Feng hurriedly signed autographs for several fans, he boarded the plane.He deftly asked the flight attendant to bring him a blanket and an eye mask, and fell asleep quickly before the plane took off.Fortunately, this flight was a non-stop flight from Portland to Los Angeles. If he had to fly to other cities, he might have overslept directly.The plane flew very smoothly, which shows that the flying conditions are quite good. In fact, even a slight turbulence can't drag Ye Feng out of sleep. After all, he just finished a game, and he is a little tired both physically and mentally.
When the plane landed at the Los Angeles International Airport, the sky was bright. Ye Feng thanked the flight attendant very politely and returned the blanket and eye mask. After walking out of the cabin door, he took a deep breath of the somewhat cold air, silently Say, "Los Angeles, I'm back!"
