Chapter 264 The Las Vegas Appointment with Jin Zhen
Jin Zhenni wanted to reach out and grab Wang Xiucheng, but reason prevented her from doing so.
"I have to go back to the hotel. We have a post-match analysis meeting tonight," Wang Xiucheng said, seemingly smiling as he reached out and patted Jin Zhenni's head.
A loose thread appeared in Wang Xiucheng's hand.
“Oh,” Jennie Kim responded softly.
"By the way, I'm going to Las Vegas in a few days. Do you have time to come with me?"
Wang Xiucheng suddenly pinched Jin Zhenni's chubby cheek.
“Okay.” Jennie nodded, and her heart, which had felt somewhat empty before, seemed to start beating again.
Jin Zhenni looked up at Wang Xiucheng, who was standing right in front of her.
"I'll call you then. I have to go now. You should go back too, it's not safe in the US at night."
Wang Xiucheng finally turned around and walked away into the distance.
Jin Zhenni looked at Wang Xiucheng's tall back and touched her face, which Wang Xiucheng had gently pinched, with a touch of fascination.
My face is so hot!
"How am I going to face Lily after this!" Jennie suddenly felt a little irritated, but the next moment she was overwhelmed by the sweetness in her heart.
"Brother, here it is."
Ma Wei spotted Wang Xiucheng approaching immediately and shouted.
"Let's go." Wang Xiucheng got into the car and instructed, "Go back to Jenna's place."
"Sit still, bro."
With a tap of the accelerator, Mawei's car left the Staples Center parking lot.
The car driven by the Wu brothers, Wu Jia and Wu Di, followed immediately from a short distance away.
Wang Xiucheng opened the car window, waved to Jin Zhenni who was still standing there watching him, and then made a phone call gesture.
Jin Zhenni nodded with dazed eyes. Only after Wang Xiucheng's car disappeared from sight did she get back into her car and leave the parking lot.
After playing back-to-back games, the Nets will rest in Los Angeles for one more night. Tomorrow at noon, the entire team will leave Los Angeles on a chartered plane and fly to Sacramento to prepare for their challenge against the Kings.
Wang Xiucheng will spend the night with Jenna and her child, and will head to the hotel tomorrow morning to join the team.
Jenner is about to get busy.
As the year draws to a close, Jenner has been invited to numerous fashion shows by both the Kardashian family's businesses and other major fashion brands.
The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, in particular, is of paramount importance, and even Jenner takes it very seriously.
As the car turned onto the main road, Wang Xiucheng suddenly remembered something.
So I rummaged around in my pocket for a while and finally found a crumpled piece of paper.
Fortunately, the number on it is still barely legible.
He took out his phone and made a call. After waiting a while, the call was answered.
"king?"
Megan Fox's voice came through the phone.
“Hey, Ms. Megan,” Wang Xiucheng greeted into the phone.
Megan answered the phone and immediately said Wang Xiucheng's name.
This is what Megan wanted to tell Wang Xiucheng: no one else will be calling her tonight.
Excluding today's match, Wang Xiucheng and Megan had only met once before, on the set of The Expendables.
But this woman's figure does indeed fit Wang Xiucheng's aesthetic standards.
Wang Xiucheng even used a scene of Megan Fox repairing a car in Transformers as his phone wallpaper.
"Where are you? Can you treat me to dinner?" Megan Fox asked nervously, her voice trembling slightly.
"Next time, sister. I need to join the team and fly to Sacramento tomorrow," Wang Xiucheng said.
It seems that the word "older sister" turned on something for Megan Fox.
Her breathing quickened. "Sacramento, which is exactly where I need to go tomorrow."
Since Megan Fox had already said so, Wang Xiucheng naturally wouldn't refuse.
“Alright then, see you in Sacramento,” Wang Xiucheng said.
"Okay, see you in Sacramento." Megan Fox seemed afraid that Wang Xiucheng would change his mind, so she immediately hung up the phone.
……
For Chinese fans, most only know that California has the Warriors, Lakers, and Clippers.
Few people know that the Sacramento Kings are also a California team.
After all, the Sacramento Kings' profile is far less than that of the other three teams.
The Nets rested in Los Angeles for one night and arrived in Sacramento the following afternoon.
Instead of returning to the hotel, the entire Nets team went straight to the training facility to train and maintain their form.
The following day, November 15th, the Kings hosted the Brooklyn Nets at their home arena, Golden 11.
Earlier today, the league announced the Players of the Week.
In the Western Conference, Warriors' Curry averaged 38 points and 6 rebounds per game last week, with a field goal percentage of 64.1%. The Warriors had a record of two wins and one loss that week.
而东部方面，费城的恩比德上周场均可以得到40分11篮板5.3助攻的数据，带领76人取得了3胜1负的战绩。
As for the Player of the Week nominations, Wang Xiucheng undoubtedly secured one of the nominations from the Eastern Conference.
In the Western Conference, De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis, both playing at home today, were nominated.
The Kings, already on a three-game winning streak and riding the momentum of their two nominations, took an early lead in the game.
The king displayed an incredible accuracy rate from the very beginning.
Whether it was three-pointers or mid-range shots from inside, the Kings made five consecutive shots at the start of the game.
Throughout the first quarter, the Kings were on fire, scoring 36 points.
In the first quarter, after withstanding the Kings' initial onslaught, the Nets, led by Wang Xiucheng and Durant, gradually got back on track and scored 30 points, seemingly not much less impressive than the Kings playing at home.
But the situation changed drastically in the second section.
The Nets players seemed to be fatigued from playing consecutive away games, missing several outside shots.
The Nets' league-leading three-point shooting percentage was completely absent in the second quarter.
Wang Xiucheng, who was heavily guarded, made two three-pointers, which were the Nets' only two three-pointers in the entire second quarter.
In the second quarter, the Kings scored another 37 points, while the basketball team only managed 24 points. By the end of the first half, the gap between the two teams had reached 19 points.
In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again.
The Kings maintained their incredible shooting percentage, hitting eight three-pointers in the quarter and scoring a whopping 42 points.
The Nets only scored 28 points.
At this point, the point difference between the two sides had widened to 33 points by the end of the third quarter.
The outcome of the match is no longer in doubt.
Wang Xiucheng and Durant did not return to the court in the fourth quarter.
In the end, the Kings defeated the Nets 153-121 at home.
The Kings secured their fourth consecutive win and broke their season-high scoring record, previously held by the Thunder at 145 points.
Meanwhile, the Nets conceded 153 points in this game.
This also sets a new franchise record for the most points allowed without overtime in Nets history. The previous record was 151 points allowed against the Spurs 44 years ago in 1978.
The Nets, having lost the game by a large margin, returned to their hotel dejectedly.
The coaching staff held an emergency meeting to find out what was wrong with the team.
In the previous five games, they managed to keep their opponents from scoring more than 5 points. Why did they manage to concede 153 points in just one game today?
Everyone, including the players, wanted to know what had happened.
Not only the coaching staff, but even the players spontaneously started a meeting.
As the team leader, Durant gathered all the players in his room for a closed-door meeting.
No one knows what was said at the meeting, but two hours later, the group, who had lost confidence due to their heavy defeat, seemed to be in much better spirits.
At least many people started joking around as they walked, unlike the lifeless atmosphere they had when they first returned to the hotel.
It was already midnight when Wang Xiucheng returned to his room, only to come out again less than ten minutes later.
After taking the elevator to the 32nd floor, Wang Xiucheng went to a room and knocked on the door.
A few seconds later, the door opened, and a pair of arms pulled Wang Xiucheng inside!
