Chapter 46 Alice's Desire

"Duncan?"

When Borrego walked into the office with enough materials, he first saw Duncan, who was always sitting in the seat he used to sit in. He was taken aback for a moment, and then turned around and found another vacant seat to sit down.

Although he was a little surprised and curious about why Duncan appeared in this meeting, he also knew that as the well-deserved core of the team, Duncan is qualified to sit here, and no matter from which aspect, he should also sit here and participate.

After the last person walked in and closed the door, Borrego looked up at everyone in the office, counted them a little, and then said to Popovich, "Coach, everyone is here."

"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, I called you into a meeting tonight for two rookies on our team, Young and Leonard."

Popovich nodded calmly, put the pen in his pocket, stood up, swept his eyes over Duncan in front of him, and then looked at other familiar faces in the office, saying: "Both Young and Leonard are very obedient and hard-working boys. They are unwilling to cause this situation."

"As a member of the Spurs, they performed well enough and endured enough. Now, I want to hear what you can do to solve their current situation..."

Swish!
The screen returned to the court, Leonard held the ball against Yang Ke's defense, went inside, near the free throw line, facing the jumping Yang Ke, made an emergency stop jumper and made a hit.

"Pretty!"

Both feet landed steadily, Yang Ke praised with a smile, took a big breath of air, pulled up his clothes and wiped the sweat off his face.

"The hit rate is still low."

It took several shots to hit the ball. Leonard shook his head, with an obvious dissatisfied expression on his face, his brows were slightly frowned, and he made a shooting posture with his hands facing the air.

"You have made a lot of progress, and your shooting posture is correct. The rest is just a lack of control over your strength." Yang Ke shook his head and said in disapproval. As a long-standing witness, he is I can clearly feel Leonard's progress.

"Compared to your progress, it is still slower."

Leonard said lightly, in his feelings, if he has made significant progress, then Yang Ke today is completely different from him before.

"Take a break and drink some water."

He gave Leonard a blank look, and didn't linger on this topic. Yang Ke felt the need for water from his body, and then said.

Leonard nodded. After what Yang Ke said, he also felt his dry mouth, and then the two walked to the basket, picked up the large bottle of energy drink he had prepared, opened the lid and gulped it down. drink up.

"Crack! Crack!"

Just when the two were drinking their drinks quietly and the atmosphere was very silent, the sound of slapping a basketball suddenly sounded in their ears.The two were taken aback, and turned their heads to look at the sound, only to see a short figure struggling to pat the ball.

Although it was not easy to slap the basketball, and he was alone, the figure still had a great time playing, and would let out a few bell-like laughter from time to time.

Yang Ke recognized that it was Alice at first glance, looked around and saw that there was still only the little girl alone, and frowned: "Alice? Why is she here alone again?"

"Old Jack should go and help the staff, he always does."

Leonard shrugged when he heard the words, he has a certain understanding of this matter.

Frowning still, Yang Ke always felt that even if Old Jack went to help others, he shouldn't leave Alice here alone, so he shook his head and said to Leonard: "Come on, let's go and have a look. "

"Right on my mind."

Leonard nodded, although the little girl has always been afraid of him, but it can't hinder his love for Alice. For a naive and lovely little girl, it's hard to be annoying.

Before going to Alice's side, he also specially took out a brand new bottle of orange juice drink from his backpack.

"Alice, do you want my brother to teach you how to play?"

After Alice slapped it once, the basketball rolled away out of control. Yang Ke, who came over, took the basketball in his hand with quick eyesight and said with a smile at the same time.

"Brother Yang Ke!"

Seeing a pair of feet appearing in the field of vision, a rolling basketball was also held by a palm, and a familiar voice sounded in her ear, Alice raised her head to look at Yang Ke, and trotted forward, a pair of small hands tightly hugged his Feet, cried sweetly.

In terms of Alice's stature, her little hands just hugged his feet between the knees, which made Yang Ke's movements very inconvenient. In desperation, he put down the basketball and pushed it towards Leonard behind him.

Bending down and squatting up, Yang Ke slowly pulled Alice's little hand away from his knees with both hands, gently held her little hand, and said with a smile: "Alice, I'm not the only one who came here Alone."

"Well, Uncle Leonard Bad."

Hearing what Yang Ke said, Alice raised her little head, and immediately saw Leonard standing there, her little body froze for a moment, and then she yelled sweetly.

"Um?!"

Yang Ke raised his eyebrows and looked at Alice in surprise. Not only did she not hide when she saw Leonard today, but she even called for someone. Although there was still a bad word in front of uncle, it was enough to surprise him up.

"Uh, here's a bottle of orange juice for you."

The title of bad uncle made the corners of his mouth twitch, but Leonard was still happy, even a little surprised, grinning and opening his mouth, and at the same time stepped forward and handed over the orange juice in his hand.

The small hand took the orange juice and held it tightly in her arms. Alice smiled and said politely: "Thank you, bad uncle!"

Alice's performance today made Leonard very excited. The little girl's attitude towards him has improved, hasn't she? As long as you work hard, one day you will remove the bad word in front of uncle, and maybe even call him younger .

Smiling and showing a row of white teeth, Leonard played basketball a few times coolly, and said softly at the same time: "Alice, do you want to play basketball? I can teach you by hand."

Alice shook her head violently when she heard that, and lowered her head slowly, her complexion became a little gloomy. She knew she was ill, and she couldn't be lucky.

"What's the matter? Alice?"

Seeing the change in Alice's face with his own eyes, Yang Ke was very puzzled and asked softly.

Alice shook her head again, then raised her head, a pair of small eyes revealed longing light, and said in a very expectant tone: "Brother, in fact, I want to go to the scene to watch you play."

"You just go."

Leonard was taken aback for a moment, and said casually that he remembered that Old Jack, as a staff member of the team, had free tickets in his hands.

"Grandpa and the others won't let me go."

Puckering her mouth, her eyes flickering non-stop, Alice was very disappointed.

"Alice? Alice, we should go back."

Just at this moment, accompanied by an old but calm voice, a white-haired old man walked down the ladders on both sides of the auditorium.
