Chapter 114 Asian Couples
October 12th, Thursday.
Today the Warriors ushered in a much-anticipated game at home, the battle for the top spot in the West, and the opponent is the Los Angeles Lakers who exist like the big devil in the West.
That's right, the Lakers of the Lakers championship!
At this time, the Lakers temporarily ranked first in the Western Conference with 13 wins and 2 losses, while the Warriors ranked second in the Western Conference with 13 wins and 3 losses.
You must know that the Warriors have started very violently this year, but compared with the Lakers, they are still slightly insufficient.
After all, the Warriors also accounted for the fact that there are many weak teams in the schedule and the strong teams are troubled by injuries, while the Lakers show their kingly demeanor.
He scored more than 120 points to beat his opponent at every turn, and beat his opponent to no avail. It seems that this year's Lakers are stronger than previous years.
Such an eye-catching game naturally once again attracted the attention of countless fans.
Today, the ball market in the Bay Area is already extremely hot, and it is no longer as deserted as it was when the game first started. It is hard to get a ticket for almost every game, let alone the highly anticipated hot games like today.
No, there are still nearly two hours before the start of the game, and the old Oakland arena is already crowded with people.
The reason for this situation is that some people who didn't get tickets wanted to come here to try their luck before the start of the game, to see if there are any temporary empties of tickets, so that they can miss out.
But this kind is a minority after all, very few people will come to the arena to sell tickets because they are unable to watch the game due to temporary business.
And here, most of the channels where you can buy tickets are those mysterious people who shuttle among the crowd and keep selling their tickets to passing fans. They also have a professional job title called scalpers.
Yes, scalpers are everywhere, and across the Pacific Ocean is no exception.
Adam and Matt sat aside at this time, looking at the passing pedestrians with sad faces, and kept moaning.
"Hey..." Adam sighed.
"Hey..." Matt sighed again.
"Hey..." Adam wanted to continue to sigh, but was stopped by Matt.
"Stop sighing, if you sigh any longer, you will be suspected of counting words!"
"Matt, what do you think we should do? We don't have enough money to buy two tickets." Adam asked Matt with a sad face.
"You asked me, and I want to ask you! Can you please ask your sister?" Matt tentatively asked.
"I've told you eight times, my sister went to Los Angeles to shoot a movie, and she ignored me at all." Adam said helplessly.
"Then why don't you ask your brother-in-law directly, he will definitely get a ticket."
"Stop making trouble, where is my brother-in-law." Adam quickly stopped Matt from continuing.
"Why not, isn't your brother-in-law just West!" Matt insisted on making things clear regardless of Adam's obstruction.
Adam didn't dare to let Matt continue talking, so he hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth, and for a while, the two had a fight.
"West is your brother-in-law? Is it true?" A crisp voice came from behind the two of them.
The two turned their heads and saw a young Asian couple with a child in their arms.
Maybe they are young. For them, it is impossible to judge the age of Asians from their appearance. Are they all eating preservatives?
It was the wife of the couple who just asked the question. As soon as she finished asking, the husband next to her quickly pulled his wife's arm and said, "How is it possible? They are joking, you really believe it!"
"Who's kidding?" Hearing someone questioning Adam, Matt immediately let go of Adam, and stood in front of the Asian couple aggressively.
The couple are not tall, only about 165cm. Matt standing in front of them, who is 180cm, looks like a big mountain, looking full of momentum. The frightened wife hugged the child tightly in her arms, while the husband He took the first step to block in front of his wife.
"West is dating Adam's sister. Her sister gave us the tickets for our last game, and it's in the back row of the home team's bench." Tell it to two people, trying to prove that what you say is true.
Adam quickly pulled Matt away, and apologized to the two: "Sorry, I scared you, my friend did not mean any harm."
"No, it's okay."
"Are you fans of West?" In order to ease the atmosphere between them, Adam hurriedly found a new topic. Before the two could answer, Adam continued: "My name is Adam, his name is Matt, we are both Stanford students are all fans of Senior West."
"Uh, actually I'm not just a fan of West, I'm a fan of Moses and the entire Warriors team. Before West entered the league, I've liked Moses for almost ten years." Feeling Adam's kindness, his face softened a lot, and he said, "Oh, by the way, my name is Jiming Lin, you can call me Dr. Lin directly, this is my wife, Shirley Lin (Shirley Lin) ), this is my son Josh Lin."
"Hello!" Adam was a little surprised by the answer of this Asian man named Lin Jiming.
Because, if you look around at this time, 99% of the Asian faces you can see are fans of Li Weisi, or they are attracted by him to pay attention to basketball. Adam didn’t expect that he just met those 1% after just getting acquainted. .
"You're actually a doctor?" Matt asked in surprise.
"It's true. My husband and I are both Ph.D. students from Purdue University, and it's true that he likes basketball. Although my husband is not tall, he plays very well. Unfortunately, because of his lack of height, he has not been able to enter the school team. "Xue Li on the side, after making sure that the two of them are not in danger, let go of her courage, and her husband joked.
"Wow, that's cool. Our basketball skills are not very good. At most, we just play around." Adam scratched his head, embarrassed.
At this time, it was still early to check in the tickets, and Lin Jiming could not enter the arena at this time, so he chatted with two young people. They were all loyal fans of basketball, so the chat was endless.
It has to be said that it is extremely easy for men to establish friendship. As long as they find a common hobby to cut in, men can soon become brothers and sisters.
"By the way, what were you talking about just now? Why are you arguing?" In the midst of the chat, Lin Jiming suddenly asked his previous doubts.
"Hey, don't mention it. We didn't get tickets. We wanted to buy high-priced tickets, but we didn't have enough money. Those black-hearted businessmen are simply too black." Matt couldn't help complaining.
"So that's how it is! I told you earlier, I originally invited two compatriots to watch the competition together, but they couldn't come due to a temporary situation in the laboratory, and I was still worried about what to do with the tickets in my hand!"
"Really? Can you sell it to us?" Adam felt that happiness came too suddenly, so he hurriedly asked.
"No, I'll give it to you!" Lin Jiming took out two tickets and handed them to Adam.
"No, no, no, we have to pay! We have to pay!" Even so, Matt had already taken the ticket from Lin Jimin's hand, holding it tightly, refusing to let go.
