595 Another City

With two big wins, the Warriors players returned to Oakland with great enthusiasm.

When they landed at the Oakland Airport, Oakland Mayor Ron Durhams personally led a group of bigwigs from the city council to pick them up. At the same time, the commander in charge of the U.S. Army and Navy Barracks also came. Several white and black men with star-shining stars on their shoulders waved enthusiastically to the Warriors players from a distance.

Although Auckland is not very famous in the world, this city is, uh, really not very famous.

Because relying on the San Francisco Bay, the city's original pioneers foreseeed that this place would become the entrance to the San Antonio River's inner harbor and the San Francisco Bay, believing that when the port develops, the commerce and industry here will flourish with it.

In the early 2nd century, the entire south of Oakland was already deep in water and connected with the San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. It was indeed an excellent port. Especially during World War II, due to the influx of military shipbuilding, Oakland's appearance was completely renewed, and the U.S. Army and Navy large barracks and supply stations were set up in the city.

However, compared to Orlando, which has similar names, Oakland is still not enough to watch.

But there is a saying that, the temple is small and the evil wind is strong, and the pool is shallow and the turtle is very shallow. Oakland does have a small population base and its economic potential is not great, but it has a unique advantage, that is, it is only a bridge away from the big California city of San Francisco. In addition, small cities also have the benefits of small cities, that is, sports fans have no spiritual sustenance, so the Warriors' results come together and immediately have the most hardcore fan group in the league. Now the Warriors are hailed as the NH's No. 1 Devil's home court.

Magic players are deeply touched by this. When the Warriors arrived in Orlando a few days ago, they were harassed by fans. Typical representatives are the Avengers and Justice League, but that is just a bunch of otakus who are idle and come to pass the time. Those who tease B have no other effect except to help the Warriors players relieve their boredom. This is not the case for Oakland fans.

California is the main battlefield of NHAR spoons, and the Lakers are in Los Angeles. The City of Angels has always been the spiritual sustenance of California fans. Now that the storm turns, Oakland fans can finally hold their heads up and their team is moving towards greatness.

The big city has big cities, and small cities have small cities, for example, Lakers fans will not be so happy that the team will enter the finals. They will be happy, but that's the case. But in Oakland, the Warriors reached the finals, which was like Christmas. The fans are not only excited, but they are simply crazy.

The Magic Bus drove out of the airport and was immediately blocked by thousands of fans. Some fans were ready to spray paint. More than a dozen hippie guys rushed to the front of the bus and squirted at the car. The characters of ECKlH,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Magic brought bodyguards to Auckland, but now those big-sleeved and round-waisted bodyguards dare not get out of the car to stop these fans. Thousands of fans were surrounded outside, and they were so excited that they couldn't even keep the body.

Van Gundy had to call 9lI, in fact, Oakland had arranged a patrol officer to open the way for them, but these policemen were even hardcore fans. They drove the cars behind the crowd, sat in the car and drank cold drinks, and ate food. They occasionally joked with magic players, but they just didn't go up to help them open the way.

It was not until the California Police Headquarters called the questioning phone number that the sheriff led the team waved his hand lazily and signaled the police to take action.

Four police cars drove up the alarm and drove up crookedly. The police yelled with loudspeakers. The fanatical fans were controlled and the crowd began to retreat, but the fans did not leave. They still surrounded the car and looked at the bus with malicious eyes.

A sheriff walked to the bus with his belt and knocked on the door, asking casually: "You are going to the Four Seasons Garden Hotel, right?"

Van Gundy was very dissatisfied with the sheriff's attitude, but he knew that he had to rely on these guys in front of him, and the situation was stronger than others, so he swallowed his anger and said, "Yes, Four Seasons Garden Hotel, sir."

The sheriff nodded and said, "Okay, keep up with my car and we will escort you over."

Before Van Gundy could express his gratitude, the police had already left in a swaying manner. When he got in the car, he waved his hand. Four police cars drove the way, two police cars broke, and drove forward whimperingly.

Fans entered their cars one after another. The hippies rode motorcycles around them. The police car driving on the road was slow, so the bus naturally couldn't speed up. So the hippies took the opportunity to continue to describe the bus, and some people prepared tomato and eggs. The magic player originally wanted to see the city through the car window, but as soon as the handsome Redick opened the window, an egg flew in accurately and directly slapped him.

The stench is everywhere, this is the rotten egg

The Magic player was furious. On a Ford pickup truck outside the window, a young man wearing Hank Helun, a Milwaukee Brewers superstar in Major League Baseball cheered and shouted at the bus: "Oh yeah, home run"

Redick is about to be pissed to death, and the rest of the Magic are also very upset, but veteran Foyle reminds him with great experience: "Guys, close the windows quickly."

All the open car windows were closed, and eggs and tomatoes were flying up behind them one after another. Suddenly, the bus became a target on the battlefield. The eggs and tomatoes were like grenades, sweeping across it.

Van Gundy was so angry that he kept honking the bus. He wanted to speed up the police car, but the four police cars leading the way in front were still driving slowly without caring about his opinion. Little Nelson's eyes were very sharp. Seeing that a police officer in the car in front gave them a middle finger, he immediately realized that they were trapped:

These policemen and these fanatical fans are a fucking group

Being under the eaves, I had to bow my head. The Magic Team could only squeeze in the car and curse, but couldn't change this established reality.

If they thought this was all the enthusiasm of Auckland fans, they would be very wrong. Four police cars drove around the outer highway of Auckland and drove out of the airport and had not entered the city for an hour and a half. This was obviously abnormal.

This is not the first time that Van Gundy and others have come to the Warriors to play at home. In the past, they could drive to the Oracle Center Arena in just one hour from the airport. San Francisco Airport was built for this pair of twin cities, so it is located between the two, and Oakland is a small town, not even a third ring and the second ring, and the main city is within a road.

There was a car-mounted GPB positioner on the bus. After the driver turned it on, he called out their previous driving route. On the clear LE screen, a red line crossed vertically and horizontally. If Van Gundy had not often drawn similar complex lines on the tactical board, he would never recognize that this damn red line was actually a line.

"These bastards, are they taking us around in circles?" Van Gundy snarled, as if an angry lion.

The bus driver looked at Van Gundy weakly and whispered: "From my 20-year driving experience, it seems that this is true."

"Damn it, I'm going to beat them to death," Howard roared, and Petrus hurriedly grabbed the boss and persuaded, "Don't worry, guys, I've lived here, but it's not necessarily the police who are taking us around in circles. It's very likely that the main line has been blocked by crazy fans. The police are taking us along the path, which is far, but safe."

Howard was suffocated to death in the first two games. Chamberlain's wholehearted defense against him has made him criticized now. He is the first inside in the Eastern Conference and the powerful leader of Warcraft. He only has 17.6 points in the two games in the finals, and the data of l-rebound? Chamberlain's score is not high, only 2 points, but the rebounds are 19 per game. And you must know that Chamberlain's task is defense rather than offense.

It would be fine if he was bullied by Chamberlain on the court, but he was bullied by these little fans off the court? Howard can't bear it anymore. As the saying goes, beating a dog and looking at the owner, but he decided not to look at the owners of the Warriors today, and must go down to beat the police.

Petrus stopped Howard, and the Warcraft was furious and shouted: "Man, are you a Warriors player or a Magic player? You say good things to these bitches? Do you still want to go back to the Warriors? Do you think the fucking champion on my team, right? If so, then go back to your Warriors. I didn't know who was kicked out like a stray dog ​​at the beginning."

Howard said this a bit too much. Pitrus was also a tough guy. He taught many people a lesson with his fists when he was at the Warriors. Of course, it was very sad. There were Magic players in it, which was also one of the reasons why he was excluded from Magic.

In fact, Pitrus was really unhappy about living here. He was a Frenchman. Although he was a black man, he received white elite education since childhood. This determined that he and Howard, Nelson, Alstom, and others had no common language. When these people gathered together to joke in black slang, he could not interrupt. If he wanted to communicate with white people like Tkoglu and Redick, the three of them belonged to three different countries, and there was no common language.

Howard's words were angry. He had such a childish temper, but Pitrus was not a child. After hearing this, his face changed and his expression became gloomy.

Van Gundy hurriedly led the two of them away, and the Magic Tyrant secretly complained in his heart, "What the hell is this? The court is already at a disadvantage. The birds under the court are actually having internal strife. This is the rhythm of the earthen pots that never leave the wellhead.

Alstom was a gangster who had been on the street after all. He and Foyle pulled Pitrus to the end and sat down, and advised: "You know, man, Dwight is such a big mouth. He is joking. Don't keep his words in your heart."

Pitrus smiled and said, "I know, I'm just as anxious now, so I understand his mood."

So what if you don’t understand? Howard is the new Magic Overlord. Even if the team’s finals journey is not smooth, in the minds of Magic fans, he is still the savior of this team and their only hope. What about him? He is just a substitute with a middle-class contract.

The atmosphere in the bus suddenly became extremely awkward when the two of them made a fuss. Coupled with the lingering stench of rotten eggs and the dull finals future, the Magic players felt heavy in their hearts.

Howard wanted to apologize. He was so excited just now that he spurted out the suppressed words in his heart. He looked at Pitrus and finally did not say the apology. He really couldn't put down his face. He was no longer the high school student who had just entered the league. Now he is a superstar in the East who can be on par with the little emperor.

However, as this happened, everyone's mood to settle the score with the police was fading. The bus circled around for another hour and finally got close to the Four Seasons Garden Hotel.

Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief, and the police car parked on both sides of the hotel, but when the bus was about to enter the hotel's underground parking lot, it was stopped by the guard.

"What's wrong?" Van Gundy asked angrily.

The guard grinned and showed his white teeth. He bowed politely and explained: "Sorry, sir, the garbage truck cannot be driven into our parking lot."
