Chapter 535: Accidental Washing, Cutting and Blowing (8/10)

The recruitment of Stephenson was much smoother than expected. After finishing the most important thing, the two of them then went to the nearby bowling alley.

Stephenson is different from Tang Shuai. His hobbies are obviously much wider, and bowling seems to be one of them.

This is the first time Tang Shuai plays bowling, but fortunately he learns very quickly. After Stephenson taught him several times, the two can compete directly one-on-one.

"Home run! Perfect!" Stephenson shouted excitedly after hitting a beautiful home run.

"Don't be too proud, I will do it too." Tang Shuai took the bowling ball and moved his muscles and prepared to play.

"I believe in you, show me one, let me see." Stephenson cheered on the side.

Tang Shuai tried it, and walked to the track with the bowling ball and was about to throw it out. At this moment, he suddenly glanced at an extremely familiar figure. He stopped halfway through his movements. The bowling ball did not control the forward rushing trend and rolled out directly.

The bowling ball kept moving forward on the track, but because there was not enough initial speed, it was almost impossible to speed when it rolled in front of the bowling bottle.

"Bang!"

With a clear sound, the bowling ball knocked down a bowling bottle and then rolled under the track.

"Oh, God, you actually knocked down only one bottle, haha, Don, your grades are not consistent with your momentum just now!" Stephenson said with a laugh beside him.

"Lance." Tang Shuai didn't care about the bowling results, but suddenly turned his head and said, "That, is it Andrew Bynum?"

"Andrew?" Stephenson was stunned, then turned to look, and immediately said with a smile, "It's that guy, let's go over and say hello to him!"

"Do you know him?" Tang Shuai asked for a moment of fright.

"Of course, we had a very good relationship before." Stephenson said, and walked over there, shouting while walking, "Andrew!"

Tang Shuai walked in some, and when the man turned around and looked over, he was indeed Bynum's face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Andrew Bynum, once the top three center in the league, was even the number one center in the West at that time after Yao Ming retired.

In the two years when the Lakers won the championship, Bynum, Gasol and Kobe's Big Three combination was their absolute core structure. In fact, Bynum was only 21 years old when the Lakers won their first championship in the 2008-09 season.

Later on in the Lakers, Bynum grew up and replaced Yao Ming, becoming the candidate for commenting on who was the first center forward with Howard.

But things are unpredictable. In the 12-13 season, the Lakers made a big deal involving four teams in order to get Howard, and Bynum was traded to the 76ers.

The story that followed was astonishing as a meteorite falling. After 76ers, Cavaliers, Bulls and Pacers, he went from an All-Star to an unscrupulous player in just two years.

Although it seems that the knee injury caused him to fall so quickly, everyone knows that Bynum's lack of protection for himself and the various negative news on his field are the real reasons that left him alone.

After retiring from the league, Bynum has focused all his attention on his hobbies, "washing, cutting, blowing," and "bowling, little prince" have become the most popular titles for fans when discussing him.

At this time, Bynum's hair was dyed all yellow and he was wearing a leather jacket. If he didn't look closely, he would think that this was a gangster. It would be hard to think of it with the powerful little shark at the time.

"Lance!" Bynum smiled on his face after seeing Stephenson, and came up and gave Stephenson a deep hug.

"Come on, let me introduce you to you. This is my good friend, Tang Shuai." After Stephenson separated, he immediately introduced Tang Shuai to Bynum.

"I know, Tang, averaged 40 points per game, the second Allen Iverson, eliminated the Warriors alone, and led the Chinese team to defeat us and won the Olympic silver medal." Bynum seemed to be very concerned about basketball, and directly told Shuai Tang's achievements as if he was memorizing the text.

"I'm very happy to see you." After Bynum finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Tang Shuai.

"I'm also very happy to see you, Andrew, before I came to NBA, I watched a lot of your basketballs on the Lakers." Tang Shuai shook hands and said with a smile.

"Haha, that's a great honor." Bynum's performance did not match his yellow hair. It seemed that after experiencing so many things, he also became mature.

"Let's sit down and talk, how tired you are standing." Stephenson said, pointing to the seat behind him.

"Yes, yes, let's sit down and say." Bynum said, putting down the bowling ball and walking backwards.

Tang Shuai glanced at the bowling ball that Bynum put down, and suddenly shook his head helplessly.

Bynum was ruined by a knee injury, and the reason for the knee injury was that he was injured when playing bowling in 2011. It is not an exaggeration to say that the bowling ruined Bynum.

"Don?" Just as he was a little stunned, Stephenson called him.

He turned around, smiled embarrassedly, and then walked to his seat and sat down.

"Andrew, you seem to be interested in basketball?" Tang Shuai said after sitting down.

"Basketball..." Bynum paused suddenly, and his eyes seemed to have all the past suddenly appeared in front of him.

After a while, he said: "Last year, I tried to make a comeback, but no team was willing to give me a tryout. I think I am already an 'old man' in the eyes of managers, and I no longer have the chance to play basketball anymore."

Bynum's words were very emotional. If it were five years ago, you would never have heard such words from him, but now I can feel that the five years of retirement have indeed changed him too much.

And more importantly, from his words, we can tell that he is indeed full of enthusiasm for basketball.

Tang Shuai suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he continued, "You said you were trying to try it out? Then your knees?"

"Knee? My knees are no longer a problem. Last year, I was almost done. I used to put my knees at risk because of my uncontrollable training. That time I played bowling was unfortunate, but I think it should be a kind of unlucky, and it broke out at that time." Bynum said with emotion.

NBA is actually such a cruel alliance. No matter how brilliant you have been, once you are eliminated by this alliance, it will definitely be unprecedented difficulty to come back. Look at Bynum, let alone the opportunity to prove yourself, you won’t get even the opportunity to try out. Look at Whiteside, with the same strength, he was laid off several times, and even fell into the fight against the ba.

"If there is a chance to try to play again, but you have to give up your..." Tang Shuai pointed to Bynum's hair, then the bowling rack, and said, "Are you willing to give up these?" (To be continued.)
