Chapter 359 The Temptation of "Home"
When Lei Allen saw Shi Lei, it was already past [-] o'clock in the afternoon, but in midsummer, at this time, the sun was still shining hot!
"Oh, the weather!"

After hugging Shi Lei, Ray Allen complained while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Shi Lei shrugged: "Indeed, it is indeed much hotter than Boston."

Then he pointed to Alice who was hiding behind him and introduced to Ray Allen: "This is my girlfriend's sister Alice."

Although she no longer resists integrating into this society, Alice still feels "dangerous" when getting along with others. Only with Shi Lei and Jenny can she feel safe.

Only then did Ray Allen see Alice with only a small head exposed, and raised his hand to say hello: "Hello!"

However, like a frightened deer, Alice immediately shrank her body completely behind Shi Lei.

Shi Lei confronted Lei.Allen showed an apologetic smile, then turned his head and whispered to Alice: "This is my friend Ray Allen, who is also a teammate of my team. Don't you want to say hello to him?"

Alice shook her head.

"Okay, so can you go to another room now, we have something to communicate, if you are not feeling well."

After Alice left, Shi Lei explained Alice's rudeness this time: "She's a little autistic, so I'm sorry."

"It can be seen, but you should find a psychiatrist for her, which may be more helpful."

"Yes, but it will take time, she doesn't want to contact any outsiders now!"

Ray Allen shrugged noncommittally, and then the room fell into a brief silence.In the end, it was Ray Allen who was the "landlord" who first found the topic.

"Thank you for being here, it makes me very grateful, I didn't get a call from anyone before this, I thought I was forgotten by everyone!"

There were complaints in Ray Allen's words. This was another "deal" that hurt Ray Allen. Although it hadn't happened yet, it gave him a deeper understanding of the ruthlessness of this alliance.

No matter how much he helps the team, no matter how close his personal relationship is, everything seems false in the face of interests.In the finals, Ray Allen even helped the team more than Pierce. Among the team, he and Shi Lei did not communicate the most. Ray Allen's greatest comfort, which makes this comfort even more precious.

"How is it possible! But Lei, how are you thinking?"

Shi Lei didn't do much to defend Pierce and the team, and he didn't do it because of "selflessness".

"Honestly, Shi, I really appreciate you calling me at this time, coming here to keep me, even on the way here, I'm already planning to never leave the Celtics, but, man , we all know that one day the trade will come, so I want to leave while I still have a choice, you understand?"

Ray Allen's face was peaceful. As the most direct competitor, Shi Lei's presence here already allowed Ray Allen to calmly face this issue that made him feel sad not long ago.

"Yes, I understand, but Ray, why do you want to leave? We are as close as a family and work together very well. Each of you is like a brother to me. I am not impatient. I am willing to wait. Before you all I don't mind standing behind you when I can bring victory to our 'family' and I'm sure you don't mind having me take on those when I can bring victory to our 'family' Responsibility, so why do you have to leave, stay here, stay here forever, isn't it good to retire here?"

Ray Allen's body froze suddenly, Shi Lei's words hit his weakness, he suddenly thought of a problem that he ignored, but should be given priority!
What people fear most is not being able to return to where?The answer is home. What people fear most is not being able to go home!This is exactly the situation Ray Allen is facing. Ray Allen is already a homeless "prodigal" at this time!

It's no secret that the Thunder will be relocating, in fact, the team has now changed its name to "Thunder"!A new team name, a new city, a strange arena, is that still Ray Allen's home?Can Ray Allen go back?
No matter how great a person has achieved, no one will show it off, and no one will remember it. What kind of regret should this be?
Suddenly remembering that he was a rootless duckweed, Ray Allen felt flustered for a while: "Yeah, I. Which team will I retire my players in the future?"

The Supersonics have been the longest team Ray Allen has ever stayed in, and it was there that he grew into an NBA superstar, but now that team no longer exists!

This is why Shi Lei has the confidence to keep Ray Allen, because Ray Allen needs to have such a team that can become his final destination, which is different from Garnett. At the end, he will definitely return to the Timberwolves, but Ray Allen has nowhere to go.

"Fortunately, what are you thinking about, dude, don't you believe in my patience? You should know that I should get that FMVP this summer, but I'm not in a hurry. Can a main position be more important than it?"

Ray Allen wavered, and Shi Lei's persuasion again made him even more confused: "Let me think about it, let me think about it!"

"We're going to have a great future, imagine it man, think about us building a 'dynasty' and then when we retire, our jerseys hang together above the TD North Shore garden, what an honor it's going to be ?People will definitely say: 'Look, it's them, they have created the most glorious history of the Celtics in NBA history, they are the greatest combination here'! Isn't this enough for us to sacrifice something? I Be willing to sacrifice for these, please believe me, when I think of these, I even feel like my blood is boiling, I can’t wait to start playing and participate in a game right away!"

"No, let me think about it, let me think about it!"

Ray Allen covered his forehead with one hand, and shook it lightly with the other.Because what Shi Lei described already made his blood boil!
