The Basketball Court Swordsman

Henson certainly did not resist such things as charity. Although his image in the league is a bastard, a villain, but in life, Henson's three views are still quite right. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a good person.

I earn so much money every year, and use a small part of it to do charity, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue for myself. Therefore, Henson has not participated in charity banquets, but most of them are in the offseason. Moreover, Henson was not interested in the "banquet" part. So most of the time, he donated money to show his face, and left by himself.

So An Jiali repeatedly touched Henson's head on the plane, for fear of something wrong with her fiance.

"When were you interested in attending a banquet?"

"Always not interested." Henson looked out through the small oval window beside him, and could already see the brilliant lights of the "City of Angels".

"Then why did you accept Kobe Bryant's invitation this time? As far as I know, you are not a popular person in Los Angeles." Of course An Jiali knew that Henson seemed to be outside of Indianapolis. Are not very popular...

"First, take time to accompany you. Second, I have a very important job to complete." Henson smiled mysteriously at An Jiali. In creating a sense of mystery, Henson is definitely an old driver. At the beginning, it was precisely because of Henson's mystery and maturity that An Jiali's heart was touched.

An Jiali took Henson's arm and didn't ask any more. Sometimes, letting this sense of mystery continue to be more emotional...

In fact, Henson's work can be easily guessed. In less than 24 hours, the trading deadline for 2013 is coming. From the deadline until this summer, teams can no longer trade players with each other.

So generally speaking, the trade deadline is a last chance for many mid-range teams to reinforce the playoffs. But again, few championship-level teams will make deals in the middle of the season.

So these days, despite the rumors in the trading market, you will never find the Indiana Pacers.

The Pacers have a 50-4 record with this lineup, and they have no reason to change the lineup. Henson thinks so too, but the deal he hopes to make has nothing to do with this season, but has a greater impact on next season!

You can't run a team year after year, you have to look farther. Therefore, it is actually not too early to think about next season.

And when Henson found Bucks general manager John Hammond in the list of participants at the banquet, he knew that his chance was here!

This year's trade deadline, let the defending champions come together!

As one of the most respectable players in the league, the charity banquet held by Kobe is naturally not shabby. Therefore, in addition to many entertainment stars and business tycoons, Kobe also invited many people from the basketball circle.

Naturally, as the hottest basketball coach in the league, Henson Joe also received an invitation from Kobe.

In the game, Kobe undoubtedly hated Henson very much. But outside of the game, Kobe still appreciates Henson very much. Kobe likes the strong, especially the strong who can desperate for victory. And Henson Joe is undoubtedly such a person.

At this time, the Chinese coach who was invited by Kobe was sitting in a taxi with his girlfriend and rushed to Kobe's mansion in Orange County, Los Angeles. Today's banquet will be held in that mansion.

"Los Angeles is a colorful world..." Henson muttered to himself in the car, looking at the streets of Los Angeles outside. No matter how many times you come to Los Angeles, Henson will be shocked by the bustling here, "But compared to this noisy metropolis, I prefer places like Indianapolis."

"I don't like places that are too busy," the beauty beside Henson echoed. "My dad has a manor in Scotland, where can you live with me during the offseason!"

"Uh..." Henson suddenly couldn't catch his mouth. The rich girl was different, and a manor appeared at every turn...

It didn't take long for the taxi to reach the door of Bryant's mansion in Orange County. It is not difficult to find here, because it has been surrounded by all kinds of luxury cars and countless reporters.

"Look here, it's a big battle." Henson looked at Bryant's palace-like mansion and shook his head. I can't believe it, I mix with these billionaires every day.

???? "Small doesn't match Kobe Bryant's reputation." However, An Jiali was not surprised at this. What's the matter? Didn't she live in the same place as this when she was a child...

? When Henson led An Jiali in front of the public. The flash became busy immediately, and the eyes of the two became white. When Henson and An Jiali appear at the same time, they will definitely be the focus no matter where they go.

Indeed, Henson and An Jiali are very amazing today. An Jiali is wearing a **** black dress with a backless back, and Henson's Armani suit is naturally not inferior.

In addition, both of them are very young and have good temperaments. I don't know, I thought it was someone from Hollywood.

Fortunately, Henson and An Jiali are people who are used to this kind of scene. Otherwise, this sudden flash might really make people faint on the spot.

This is Los Angeles!

After Henson and An Jiali walked into the door of the mansion, Kobe and his wife Vanessa were already waiting inside. As the organizer of this banquet, Kobe naturally hugs and salutes every guest who comes.

"What made you change your mind? Coach Henson." Bryant was very enthusiastic after seeing Henson, although the Lakers were in a bad situation this year. But it can be seen that Kobe has not been completely crushed by pressure.

"I couldn't refuse the invitation of the best basketball player in the world, Mr. Bryant. So after thinking about it, I came." Of course, it is impossible for Henson to tell his true purpose, although Kobe has nothing to do with this matter. It doesn't matter.

But you have to be cautious in everything. With so many reporters here, every leak of any news will make Henson lose his advantage. Otherwise, where do you think all the gossip you see all day come from?

"Quickly go in, the banquet is about to begin. Your female companion is really radiant tonight, Mr. Joe." The hostess Vanessa said to An Jiali, and the girl's face immediately flushed.

Henson smiled and nodded to Kobe and Vanessa in thanks, and then walked into the lobby of the mansion with An Jiali.

When the two came to the hall, Henson couldn't help being stunned by the luxurious endurance here. Although he had attended many similar dinners before, he must admit that in terms of luxury, this banquet held by Kobe is definitely one of the best.

There are many people Henson doesn't know, but there are also many acquaintances.

For example, Paul Gasol, a Spaniard who is chatting with a bunch of friends, and Steve Nash, who has always been very keen on charity. Well, there is also Tom Cruise, the Hollywood star Henson really likes. The moment he saw Tom Cruise, Henson always subconsciously felt that he was performing an agent task...

However, after looking around, Henson did not find "Warcraft" Dwight Howard. It seems that the rumors about Kobe and Howard's disagreement are true. After all, with O'Neal's lessons learned, the Lakers should have thought of such a result.

?? The dinner party, Henson is not really interested. His eyes still scanned everyone, hoping to find his "target" tonight soon.

But Henson was surprised, but many people took the initiative to talk to Henson and An Jiali.

As the daughter of a businessman, many business people naturally hope to get acquainted with Vivek through An Jiali's relationship. Of course, there are many people who are more interested in the Chinese coach who created the legend of Indiana. What's more, Henson is now the spokesperson of Armani, which has made his popularity soar.

This point made Henson a little flattered. He thought that a **** like him would be a little transparent at such a dinner party. Unexpectedly, **** are also popular.

??? "You are younger than the coach Henson I saw on TV."

"How do you manage your players? The Pacers have almost never been exposed to locker room conflicts."

"How does it feel to have 25 consecutive victories? You must have been happy for several days, right?"

Facing the group of gentlemen around him who never finished asking questions, Henson felt that they were not much different from reporters.

Of course, Henson can't treat them roughly like reporters.

After talking for a short time, before Kobe officially started organizing the dinner, Henson finally saw the person he was looking for in the crowd.

Gold glasses, meticulously groomed hair, and a polite smile on his face.

John Hammond was an assistant coach for the Pistons, Clippers, University of Missouri and University of Nebraska. Of course, his current status is the general manager of the Milwaukee Bucks. And in the 09-10 season, also won the best manager of the year award.

"Honey, I need to talk to that man a few words." Henson said, taking a glass of wine on the waiter's plate.

An Jiali nodded obediently. She knew very well that Henson was not here to attend the banquet on this trip. "Go, I can take care of myself."

Henson smiled slightly, and strode towards the man. Antetokounmpo, the draft picks, the future of the Pacers...

Of course, he still has the ideal candidate for the Milwaukee Bucks!

Talking about business when you know what others want, usually, the chance of success is very, very high.

"Sir, it's a great honor to see you here." Henson said the first sentence. Hammond turned his head and saw Henson Joe. It was also a little surprised, but the unexpected expression only flashed past.

"Oh, see who's here? Coach of the Year! What brought you here?" Although John Hammond and Henson are both basketball players, they don't know each other. So, after meeting, I greeted a few words.

"It doesn't matter what the wind is, I only know that it's not a few hours before the trade deadline, Mr. Hammond." Henson pointed to his watch, "If you want, we can go to the balcony to talk, there be quiet."

Like playing games, Henson always likes to hold the initiative first.
