Chapter 261 Stallone, does your chapter count?
The ball went in!
This means that Davis made the game-winning shot!
110 is better than 108!
The moment the ball went in, Davis suddenly ran towards James on the sidelines and collided hard with him.
Other Lakers players also rushed over, overwhelming Davis and James in the crowd.
Wang Xiucheng supported his knees, a bitter expression on his face.
This wasn't his first loss, but it was the first time he had experienced a game-winning shot.
He had previously delivered several game-winning shots against his opponents.
But this is the first time I've been defeated in the final moments!
It's very bitter!
Wang Xiucheng experienced this feeling for the first time.
It's not a good feeling to have all your hard work wiped out in the last fraction of a second.
But that's sports!
That's probably the charm of basketball!
The Staples Center erupted in thunderous cheers!
Durant walked over and patted Wang Xiucheng on the shoulder.
He'd seen plenty of games where he was eliminated in the final moments, so he wasn't surprised anymore. Although he was upset, it was much better than what Wang Xiucheng was going through.
"It's okay, we'll win next time," Durant comforted him.
Wang Xiucheng straightened up, gave Durant a high-five, and then gave high-fives to the other players on the court.
Losing is tough for everyone, but that's the NBA!
The Nets' substitutes also came onto the court and high-fived Wang Xiucheng, Durant, and others.
While the Lakers were still celebrating, the two head coaches stood together and embraced.
The two men covered their mouths and were talking about something, seemingly not as disappointed as the Nets players who had lost the game.
James had somehow broken away from the celebration group. After high-fiving Durant and a few others and exchanging a few words, he specifically sought out Wang Xiucheng.
In the distance, Reeves saw James and Wang Xiucheng standing together, and his eyelids twitched inexplicably.
While exchanging high-fives and pleasantries with the other people, Reeves moved toward the two men, wanting to hear what they had to say.
"Hey, King."
James greeted Wang Xiucheng first, and then hugged him.
"I won this time," James said, seemingly quite pleased with himself.
He didn't play in this game, and the Lakers still won, so he was naturally very happy.
Isn't this just winning by doing nothing?!
"Congratulations," was the only reply Wang Xiucheng could give.
"I need to talk to you." James pulled Wang Xiucheng aside, covering his mouth as if afraid someone would hear.
“I found the book you mentioned, but I feel the translation isn’t quite right. There are parts I don’t understand. Could you take a look?” James said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiucheng's face darkened.
Are you serious?
You can find anything you just casually mentioned?
Was the book Reeves was going to auction yesterday really a gift from you?
I'm a Chinese person, and I didn't even know this book existed.
"Alright, I'll take a look at it for you when I have time." Wang Xiucheng was genuinely interested.
"Don't wait any longer, today is the day. My book is in the locker room, I'll wait for you in the parking lot later."
James seemed anxious and forcefully made the decision for Wang Xiucheng.
"okay."
This was the only answer Wang Xiucheng could give.
He's very curious now about what's written in that book.
"See you later," James said finally, and walked off to the other side.
Reeves, who was not far away, seemed to have heard the two men mention his name and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey, King."
Davis's voice came from behind.
“Davis.” Wang Xiucheng turned around, reached out and shook hands with Davis. “Your last shot was brilliant; you didn’t give us any time.”
"I just guessed that shot," Davis said quietly.
"Hehe." Wang Xiucheng laughed.
"By the way, do you play games?" Davis asked.
Wang Xiucheng was slightly taken aback and didn't react immediately.
In English, "game" and "competition" are the same word, so Wang Xiucheng was unsure what the questioner was asking.
"Call of Duty, Black Ops." Davis's eyes lit up. "I heard Black Ops 2 is coming out soon. Do you want to play with me?"
Wang Xiucheng chuckled again upon hearing this. Having a gaming partner wasn't bad at all.
“If I have time, of course I can,” Wang Xiucheng replied.
Upon hearing this, Davis became visibly excited. "I'll ask James for your number later. See you in the game."
"Ok."
After seeing off the gamers, Wang Xiucheng turned around and saw Jenna and her group about to leave.
Wang Xiucheng pretended not to see it and walked away to another place under Jenna's burning gaze.
Stallone and the others also got up, seemingly saying goodbye to the other celebrities.
When Wang Xiucheng saw Sylvester Stallone, he immediately remembered something.
Walking up to Stallone, Wang Xiucheng asked bluntly, "Old man, do you still keep your word?"
Jason Statham, 50-meter, and others were all somewhat surprised by Wang Xiucheng's choice of words.
Wang Xiucheng is the first person to call Stallone "old man".
But Stallone seemed completely unconcerned, only asking with some confusion, "What counts?"
After helping Sylvester Stallone film a night's worth of scenes, Wang Xiucheng started calling Stallone "old man."
They agreed on two hours, but filmed all night. Stallone knew he was in the wrong and felt guilty, so he let Wang Xiucheng call him that.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiucheng still addressed him that way on this occasion.
"What do you mean?" Wang Xiucheng said seriously, "You said that if the Lakers win today, I can choose any one of your three daughters, have you forgotten?"
Wang Xiucheng pointed to Jason Statham and the others beside him, "They all heard it."
Jason Statham and the others coughed awkwardly a few times, pretending not to hear.
Only Megan Fox's eyes lit up slightly, and it was unclear what she was thinking.
"When did I say that?" Stallone looked bewildered and turned to Jason Statham and the others, asking, "Did I say that?"
Jason Statham and the others didn't know how to respond, so they could only pretend they hadn't heard.
"Hehe, old man, you're awesome." Wang Xiucheng gave a thumbs up.
Pressing down Wang Xiucheng's finger, Stallone said nonchalantly, "You're still young, it's the time to pursue your career, don't let romance hold you back."
"And don't say I'm not keeping my word." Stallone thought for a moment, "When you win the NBA championship, you can marry one of my three daughters."
"Old man, wait while I get my phone and record it." Wang Xiucheng found it somewhat amusing; the old man was making a wish again.
"No need to record it. Who am I? Do you think I'd go back on my word?" Stallone patted his chest. "They can testify."
"Heh!" Wang Xiucheng sneered.
"Alright, I have to go home." Stallone turned around and called out before leaving with his men.
Wang Xiucheng greeted each of these people one by one.
Megan Fox, who was walking at the back, shook hands with Wang Xiucheng and blew him a kiss with a flirtatious look.
Wang Xiucheng's heart skipped a beat because he felt a piece of paper in his palm.
Megan Fox looked back at Wang Xiucheng a few meters after she walked away.
There's something wrong with this woman!
