The night is getting late, and there are few people on the streets.
It is late autumn, and the temperature in the already cold Minneapolis city is getting lower and lower. From time to time, cold wind blows past, making the deserted streets look even more desolate.
However, in stark contrast to the street, a large local bar was overcrowded.
The clock on the wall showed it was 12:30 in the morning, but here, it was a lively scene, as if the nightlife had just begun.
On a booth, a sturdy man was chatting and drinking with his friends. He looked extremely comfortable and comfortable. Not only was he smoking a cigarette, he was also nibbling on it from time to time, hugging the pretty young girls next to him.
This strong man is none other than the Timberwolves' super center Dwight Howard.
After losing the game, he did not feel any low mood. Even the doubts and ridicules from the outside world did not affect his mentality.
Every evening, Dwight Howard would take the initiative to go out and lead a group of friends to raid major nightclubs and bars.
He is a celebrity in Minneapolis and a famous playboy in the NBA. Not only did he have as many as four or five illegitimate children, but he also had close relationships with women of different ages. There were even rumors that most of the contract money Dwight Howard received during his career was spent on alimony.
Although such things are not known to be true or not, it is almost unknown in the NBA that Dwight Howard is too self-indulgent and has a chaotic private life.
"Hey girl, can you come with me tonight?"
"You... and you, the three of you are leaving with me... My mansion has many rooms, and the beds there are very soft... I am very I'm interested in talking to you about the game, oh! You know I'm talking about basketball..."
Dwight Howard said to the three blondes beside him.
The three blondes were naturally also very interested. After all, they were waiting for this opportunity, so they hurriedly got together with Dwight Howard, and one even took the initiative to sit in his arms.
Just when Dwight Howard was feeling the gentleness of his hometown, a discordant voice broke the atmosphere.
"Hey, Dwight, you're a terrible guy who can do nothing but pick up girls in nightclubs...you don't deserve to be on the Timberwolves..."
"Man, if I were you leading the team to six consecutive defeats... I would definitely find a rope to hang myself on... You don't deserve an annual salary of $26 million, your value is not even It’s not worth even 6 million dollars…”
"The Timberwolves management is really blind. How could they trade a playboy like you?"
"No, the Timberwolves management has nothing to do. As long as there is someone better than him on the market, who would be willing to let this guy come over? It's just that this guy has tarnished the Timberwolves. People like him will just hang around wherever they go. of......"
A group of about eight or nine fans stood not far away and shouted at Dwight Howard.
The sound in the bar was not too loud at this time, so Dwight Howard heard these words very clearly, as did his friends around him.
Such ridicule undoubtedly angered Dwight Howard, but before he could respond, his friends beside him had already stood up.
A group of people soon began to scuffle.
Although Dwight Howard drank too much, he still knew not to do anything easily. His bodyguards also blocked him behind him, refusing to let him join the fight at all.
The chaotic situation ended quickly. Although the other party had a large number of people, they had no real intention to start a conflict. They only started to fight under the influence of alcohol.
After everyone gradually woke up, these people naturally left quickly.
Although it was a small-scale fight, the police were still attracted. Before Dwight Howard got into deep trouble, the bodyguards quickly helped him escape from behind.
After all, Dwight Howard is a celebrity. Once he is found to be involved in these things, even if he does not take action, the news reports will definitely not be good.
Getting caught up in a public opinion storm can be fatal to any NBA player.
However, even though the situation was so urgent, Dwight Howard still did not forget to bring the three blondes with him. Soon, his bodyguard drove him and the blondes back home.
Dwight Howard, who didn't take any shots in the first half, naturally couldn't sit on the bench all the time. After he got home, he tended to start the game, warmed up a bit, and then played the entire second half.
Facing the double-teaming and marking by three defensive players, Master Huo not only delivered a perfect answer, but even played two or three overtimes.
It wasn't until late at night that Master Huo, who was exhausted, fell into a deep sleep.
However, what Dwight Howard didn't know was that early the next morning, a tabloid in Minneapolis reported last night's news.
Although Dwight Howard did not take action, his popularity was too high. In order to gain more exposure and gimmicks, the tabloid media specially found someone to write a story, deliberately claiming that Dwight Howard was suspected of participating in the melee.
As soon as such reports came out, Dwight Howard, who was already ridiculed by many fans, was in an even worse situation.
More and more people are insulting him, and more and more fans are questioning him. Even the Timberwolves are constantly contacting him, trying to ask him for the truth of the matter.
The league also made special adjustments and even gave interviews to reporters regarding whether Dwight Howard was involved in the fight.
"What on earth can this guy do? Apart from fighting or going to nightclubs? Does he still care about the competition?"
"Don't you all understand that this guy came to the Timberwolves to provide for his retirement? It's obvious that he wants to get rid of his contract, and then get out of the NBA when no one wants him..."
"I traveled hundreds of kilometers to watch the game just to see him and Zhao team up, but now I am so disappointed... Damn it, Fuck! The Timberwolves refunded the labor and management... ..”
The comments online are almost one-sided. Everyone is criticizing Dwight Howard, criticizing his incompetence, criticizing him for not being serious in the game, criticizing him for over-indulging himself and causing all kinds of news.
Regarding this situation, Zhao Feiyang originally wanted to save it, but he hesitated for a long time and really didn't know how to explain this matter to the fans.
After all, even he can’t stand it anymore!
He tried to contact Dwight Howard, but after making the call, there was a voice prompt on the other end of the phone.
"Hey, I'm Dwight Howard, I'm busy right now...If you have anything, please leave me a message, I'll listen...I'll get back to you when I'm free ......."
Snapped.
Zhao Feiyang hung up the phone and sighed helplessly.
"what's the situation?"
"Why did this guy start disappearing?"
