180. A Great Father Indeed
In a Los Angeles residence, Britney covered her mouth in shock, her face showing disbelief.
She never expected that Li Chen's words would actually come true; one of her friends really did propose to her.
At that moment, Alexander held the bouquet of flowers high and shouted, "Britney, marry me! I'm serious!"
At that moment, Britney was truly moved. She was someone who longed for love and was also a soft-hearted woman.
Seeing that his childhood friend Alexander had been kneeling for more than ten minutes, his sincerity was beyond doubt.
At that moment, Britney wanted to agree to Alexander's request.
But just as Britney was about to agree, she thought of Li Chen, his words echoing in her ears.
Her expression shifted repeatedly, but finally she said, "Jason, I need to think about it."
Hearing this, Jason Alexander frowned. Something was wrong; this silly woman should have agreed.
Although his scheme failed, he did not give up. "Britney, I will not give up. I will always wait for you."
Upon hearing this, Britney almost broke down and wanted to immediately accept Alexander's marriage proposal.
However, she held back in the end. She wanted to know how Li Chen knew her friend would propose to her. Could it really be his so-called Eastern divination?
After seeing Alexander leave, she took out her phone to call Li Chen to ask why, but then she put the phone down; she was going to New York to inquire in person.
On the other side.
After Alexander drove away from Britney's house, he pulled over to the side of the road, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Sigh! What a pathetic woman."
As he spoke, he took out his phone, dialed a number, and after two rings, the call was quickly answered. A deep voice came through, "Jason, how did it go? Did she agree?"
"I'm sorry, Uncle, she didn't agree. Has she been seeing someone behind your back?" Jason Alexander asked.
"No, absolutely not. I have her every move under control. And don't say another word. I'll transfer the money to you."
"Yes, Uncle, you are so generous, how could I possibly do such a thing?"
Hearing Alexander's assurance, Jamie Spears was very satisfied.
"By the way, Uncle, you are truly a great father," Jason Alexander said sarcastically.
With that, Alexander hung up the phone.
Hearing Alexander's sarcastic remarks, Jessie Spears remained unfazed, muttering to himself, "Strange, it's just that she's too outstanding."
On the other side, Li Chen was somewhat surprised to suddenly see Britney.
Then, Britney asked the question that had been on her mind, but Li Chen was a seasoned charlatan, and then he launched into a tirade of lies.
Although she couldn't understand what Li Chen was saying, it seemed very profound, and then she naturally became lame.
In November, the Knicks went on a 12-game winning streak.
The Knicks won 17 straight games in December, and under Li Chen's leadership, Knicks achieved a 29-game winning streak.
Although the Knicks didn't have a Christmas Day game this season, their season record has already broken the Knicks' all-time record of 15 consecutive wins.
Knicks fans are going crazy because if they win four more games, they will tie the NBA's longest winning streak of 33 games, set by the Los Angeles Lakers from November 5 to December 14, 1986.
Not only were the New York Knicks fans excited, but even owner Dolan was incredibly thrilled.
It's worth mentioning that during this period, the New York Knicks faced the Spurs again, and Li Chen generously handed the Spurs a defeat.
Meanwhile, the New York Knicks are ranked first in the Eastern Conference with a record of 29 wins and 0 losses.
The NBA experts were baffled. They didn't understand, they really didn't understand, why the New York Knicks could become so powerful simply by adding Li Chen.
Finally, after some research, they discovered that the Knicks had too many offensive options. Li Chen, needless to say, could shoot threes, make mid-range shots, layups, and even play defense; he brought out the best in Hexagonal Warrior of the offense.
Allan Houston experienced a resurgence after Li Chen joined the Knicks, with his mid-range shot being virtually unstoppable and his three-point shooting percentage also quite good.
Crawford was even more impressive, scoring at least two three-pointers per game.
What they found most unbelievable was that this rookie, Ariza, was also very accurate from three-point range, making three-pointers in every game.
This reminded them of Clippers rookie Korver last year.
These pitchers have a 70% chance of converting Li Chen's passes into points, which is why they are so strong.
Moreover, they discovered that Li Chen's ability to draw defenders was too strong; one-on-one defense simply couldn't stop him, so they could only double-team him.
But here's the problem: whenever they double-team Li Chen, they pass the ball, and then... and then nothing happens. The opposing team's score gradually widens. Now, the only thing stopping the Knicks is their shooting touch.
On this day, Li Chen felt it was time to have Dolan bring JR Smith, this cancer, to the Knicks.
And then there's Thomas; he hasn't forgotten how Alvin Gentry was mocked by him just two months ago.
Then...
When Dolan received Li Chen's call, he was very enthusiastic, "Haha! Chen, you did a fantastic job, you're the Michael Jordan of our time!"
"Mr. Dolan, you're too kind. I'm still far from being as good as Michael."
After chatting for a while, Li Chen got down to business. "Mr. Dolan, I hope the team can strengthen its roster."
Dolan Li Chen explained, "Mr. Dolan, my goal this season isn't to make the Playoffs, but to reach the NBA Finals and bring the Knicks the Larry O'Brien Cup."
"Haha! No problem, you can talk to Thomas."
"Mr. Dolan..."
Seeing Li Chen hesitate, Dolan raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong with Thomas?"
"He said, he said..."
Before Li Chen could finish speaking, Dolan exploded. "Does this piece of trash Thomas think he can turn the world upside down?"
If it weren't for him, how could he be where he is today? And yet he dares to stop the Knicks from winning the championship?
In Dolan of anger, Dolan fired Thomas.
Thomas was fired without any explanation.
Of course, he wouldn't let it go like that. When he found Dolan, he learned that Li Chen had snitched on him, which infuriated him. But what was done was done, and there was nothing he could do.
After that, Alvin Gentry served as acting team manager.
Subsequently, the Knicks made an offer to the Charlotte Bobcats (later the Hornets).
Li Chen wanted to trade Penny Hardaway and Michael Swettney for J. R. Smith.
The reason Li Chen is only now initiating trades is because JR Smith's rebellious nature is becoming more apparent, and he has been benched by the Bobcats, making it easier to complete a trade.
However, the Charlotte Bobcats made an outrageous demand for Crawford.
Alvin Gentry strongly opposed the trade, arguing that Crawford was the Knicks' second-leading scorer and this was clearly taking advantage of their weakness.
What Alvin Gentry couldn't understand was why Li Chen cared so much about that JR Smith.
He discovered during some competitions that JR Smith was a typical troublemaker.
Bringing this thing to the Knicks? Isn't that just asking for trouble?
Although he didn't understand Li Chen, he didn't press him for the reason because he trusted Li Chen.
