Chapter 498 Who Is Speaking of Loyalty?

Many players in the NBA have a gang background. Er Niu has long known this, but he did not expect that the lunar eclipse also has this background.

囧囧sen quickly explained Er Niu's confusion: "Don't forget, he grew up in the southern district. Thinking about the environment he grew up in, it would be strange if he didn't have friends in this area!"

Ruan Erniu suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly.

This morning, the Eagles were about to fly to Toronto. Er Niu immediately called Lunar Eclipse before boarding the plane.

"Hey! Kraft, I heard you've become a hero?" Lunar Eclipse, who was recuperating from his injuries, was so bored that he went crazy except for doing recovery training in the water.

Ruan Erniu said directly: "I need your help..."

Americans don’t have a lot of hospitality. Ruan Erniu quickly explained the cause and effect of the matter, hoping that the lunar eclipse can help him clear up the relationship. Even with bodyguards, there is only a thousand days to be a thief in this world, and there is no day before yesterday. The principle of preventing thieves.

Lunar Eclipse was on the other end of the phone, hesitatingly said: "Kafu, this is not a trivial matter, 4 people died, and it is very difficult for me to intervene in the internal affairs of the gang..."

Ruan Erniu interrupted: "What if the price is reasonable? Don't tell me, there are no factions within the gang?"

Moon Eclipse smiled and said, "Why do you seem to know more about gang culture than me?"

Ruan Erniu said: "It's just that I've watched too many movies, anyway, I'll leave it to you!"

Er Niu ended the call, then packed his luggage with his teammates and started his road trip.

Ruan Erniu's so-called watching too many movies is not a gangster movie in the United States, but the Chinese "Young and Dangerous".

The plot of the whole movie, Er Niu can't fully recount it, but there is one plot that he remembers very clearly, that is the part where Liangkun forced Gong Jiang Tiansheng at the Hongxing Conference:
"Your birth brother sits in this position every year in the election. Brother Chao, we have been playing games since we were young. In [-], we killed those big gangsters in Lantian. Do you remember how glorious it was? In [-], the gang ordered Sharpei to be killed. , Take back the fish market in Aberdeen, I've done it. In [-], I went to Tsim Sha Tsui East and hacked Chen Qi to death. As a result, I was the one who squatted in the kiln. I squatted for three years. In terms of meritorious deeds, I am absolutely qualified Sitting in this seat, the brothers in the company asked me for help. I can’t do anything about it. Brother Sheng, you sit in the air-conditioned room all day, and the remote control is of course comfortable. It’s hard for us to run errands outside.”

The gangsters in this world are actually not much different, and the routines played at home and abroad can never escape the word "profit".

Why is Liangkun able to take the position?

It's not because of how capable he is, but because he is constantly making progress and leading his subordinates to occupy more interests. (never legal)

Why can't Jiang Tiansheng hold back the scene?Because he can no longer bring more benefits to the people involved in the Hongxing Society, and lives on one acre of land like an old farmer.

Although I don't know the identity of the gang leader Han Meimei killed, but a dead person is a dead person, and those who are alive will consider the issue of interests realistically.

It is obviously not in their interests to engage a well-known figure with money and status (as in the United States, where money comes with status) purely for the sake of loyalty.

Does the underworld talk about loyalty?
Just kidding, Liangkun made it very clear: "When the word 'righteousness' is taken apart, it is me~for~lamb~sheep!"

So, they only talk about benefits, and brothers will sell them!
Ruan Erniu decided to call Moon Eclipse directly after he had figured it out. What he didn't expect was that things were progressing more smoothly than he had imagined.

As soon as Er Niu got off the plane, Lunar Eclipse called.

"Kafe, your luck is really great! I got the news from my friend just now, and you are no more trouble now!"

It will be Er Niu's turn to be surprised: "So easy? How much did it cost?"

Moon Eclipse smiled and said: "It doesn't cost a penny. The gang that came to kill people was taken away in the early morning of this morning, and the one who killed them was the group who robbed them of their supply! This incident has been spread throughout the Southern District. all over!"

Ruan Erniu couldn't help but laugh, he didn't expect the matter to be solved so easily, it saved him from worrying!

After all, he is just an NBA player, and now he should focus on the game.

On November 2008, 11, local time in the United States, the Air Canada Center Arena.

The Atlanta Hawks with 13 wins and 1 loss challenged the Toronto Raptors with 7 wins and 7 losses away.

The two teams have played against each other once this season. In the last game, the Hawks beat the Raptors at home. This time in Toronto, the Raptors will definitely do everything possible to stop the powerful Hawks.

In the first quarter of the game, Bargnani, the champion of Italy, made the first shot. He made 5 of 3 shots in a single quarter and 2 of 1 three-pointers. He scored 7 points and once helped the Raptors start with 15:4. The stage gave the Hawks a head-on blow.

However, under the joint counterattack of Ruan Erniu and Bibby, the Eagles quickly gained a firm foothold, continuously chasing points, and constantly narrowing the score of the two teams.

At 21:24, when the first quarter ended, the scores of the two teams had only 3 points left.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Mike Bibby continued to play efficiently, and Jose Calderon was obviously not Bibby's opponent in one-on-one.

The White Devils first scored two consecutive three-pointers from beyond the three-point line, and then rushed to the basket with the ball. Facing Bosh's defense, the latter caused a defensive foul and won a free throw.

Ruan Erniu showed off his inside advantage even more strongly, winning against Bosh and Barryani in succession.

Raptors coach Sam Mitchell once pinned his hopes on Chris Humphries, but this strong man is only a little better than Bosh and Bargnani in confrontation, and he is not enough to give Ruan Erniu caused enough trouble.

Although the Eagles got Jermaine O'Neal this season, O'Neal has always been a glass man. Even in the peak season of 01-04, he did not have a record of full attendance. Last season, he only attended 42 games. He has Not an All-Star player, let alone stop the league's top Kraft Nguyen.

At 55:46, the Hawks had opened up 9 points in the second quarter. If Jason Kapono, who came off the bench, hadn't hit a few three-pointers, maybe the game would have been spent early.

In the third quarter, the Raptors defended with all their strength, and the scene became very chaotic for a while. Bosh played bravely in the chaotic battle. He made 10 of 7 shots and 1 of 1 free throw in a single quarter, contributing 15 points and 3 rebounds. , 2 assists.

The strong performance of the Dragon King once made the Raptors see the possibility of a counterattack, but the overall strength of the Hawks is even better after all.

Salmons stood up in this quarter and scored 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, finally extinguishing the arrogance of the Raptors.

At 78:69, the Hawks still ended the first three quarters with a 9-point advantage despite the Raptors playing well.

In the final quarter of the game, Ruan Erniu and Jiongsen, who felt cold for three quarters, joined forces to attack. The two scored 25 points in a single quarter, completely sealing the victory of the game.

At 110:93, the entire Raptors team fought until the last moment. Bosh scored 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists. Kapono also stood up from the bench and scored 16 points. , 2 rebounds, 2 assists, Jose Calderon even contributed the most 11 assists in the game.

But Ruan Erniu scored 42 points and 17 rebounds in a single game, Chris Anderson scored 5 points and 12 rebounds, Zaza Pachulia scored 3 points and 10 rebounds, and the three combined to get 39 rebounds , including 15 offensive rebounds in the frontcourt, and their rebounds firmly controlled the game situation for the Eagles.

The rebound ratio of the two teams in a single game is 51:41, and the ratio of the two teams' three-pointers in a single game is 12:4.

The entire league is paying more and more attention to three-pointers, and the importance of rebounding has actually passively declined, but the Hawks have clearly bucked the trend in this regard, because they not only dominated rebounds, but dominated both.
