The No.1 Anti-Fans in Basketball-Chapter 477 - 241 My Tiger Can Do Backflips_2

Of course, the key was that the Warriors were on fire this game, seizing their opportunity; they hit 14 of their 25 three-point attempts from the outside, shooting a terrifying 56%.

Even Green, sticking his butt out, launched and hit 5 of 8 threes to score 24 points, completely cutting Randolph loose like a kite.

After two games, the series was tied 1-1, and the Warriors showed their improved strength.

However, the interesting part is that the 1-1 tie in this series was not an anomaly.

The Spurs and Mavericks, Rockets and Lakers, Thunders and Blazers all had series that were surprisingly tied at 1-1 after the first two games.

There’s no such thing as a weak team in The West, and this year that saying was given the most direct evidence.

After the first two games, the teams were heading to Oakland.

Hansen arrived in Oakland half a day earlier than the team.

Ever since he last visited the zoo with Ajalee, their contact became more frequent.

If it weren’t for Ajalee graduating this summer and being busy with her final project, their relationship would have taken a step further.

Now that her graduation project was complete, she just happened to invite Hansen over to her house.

Theoretically, being in the middle of the playoffs, Hansen should have been too occupied with the games to do anything else, but Ajalee had invited him with a reason he simply couldn’t refuse.

Ajalee said her family’s tiger could do backflips.

Ajalee’s home, or more precisely, one of their homes, was in Oakland.

It was purchased on a whim by Vivek Ranadive after he became a minority owner of the Warriors.

Last year Vivek Ranadive became a major owner of the Kings, and their family relocated to Sacramento, but they kept this house because Ajalee hadn’t graduated yet.

The estate spanned over 5 acres, looking like a small palace.

There were rumors that Vivek Ranadive invested in basketball because of Ajalee, the veracity of which is unknown, but he did indeed favor Ajalee greatly.

Let’s not forget, Ajalee isn’t his only child.

It was only after entering the estate that Hansen understood why Ajalee had invited him to the zoo before.

Because inside this estate, they kept quite a few pets, and not just tigers.

A wolf dog almost as big as a human—if you didn’t look at the tail, you would think it was a real wolf.

When Hansen entered, the creature sniffed around him and wagged its tail back and forth.

"It likes your scent," Ajalee said with a smile when she saw this.

Hansen reached out to pet its head, and it immediately flopped over, turning its belly up for a rub.

Even if it was a real wolf, it had been domesticated to be almost like a dog.

"What’s its name?" Hansen couldn’t help asking.

"Abu." The name had an Indian ring to it. fгeewebnovёl.com

"Abu is a character from ’Aladdin’s Magic Lamp,’ representing loyalty and bravery," Ajalee explained further.

No wonder the creature liked to be close to Hansen; they both had bravery in their fate.

What Hansen didn’t expect was to find an elephant in the backyard.

After Ajalee approached it, the elephant actually used its trunk to lift her onto its head.

Elephants look cute but are actually quite dangerous; however, from its behavior, it seemed it was raised by Ajalee since it was young.

This showed that the lifestyle photos on Ajalee’s social media weren’t for building an image; she truly loved animals and loved life passionately.

Of course, she was also truly brave.

Especially when Hansen followed her to the cage where the tiger was kept.

It was a male Bengal Tiger, not as big as the Suman Tiger they saw at the Memphis Zoo, but the visual impact of its more than two-meter long body was still quite startling, especially when it let out a low growl that seemed to come from the abyss as it saw them.

Are you telling me Wu Song fought one of these?

However, Ajalee couldn’t go in and get close to this tiger.

Tigers are a creature you only interact with when they’re small; once they’re grown, they are mainly cared for by zookeepers, because if they play too rough and swipe you with a claw, if you’re unlucky, you might end up drawing lots.

But you know what? Ajalee didn’t lie—under the zookeeper’s direction, the Bengal tiger really did perform a backflip.

Ajalee took out a childhood photo with it.

Not to say it was unexpected, but the tiger’s striped pattern was truly beautiful.

"What’s its name?" Hansen anticipated another name with an Indian flavor.

But Ajalee’s answer surprised him.

"King."

So, was this the reason Vivek Ranadive decided to buy the Kings?

But it was at this very moment that Hansen knew what kind of pet he should get.

It was already evening, and the sunset glowed in the west; the servants went to prepare dinner as they sat on a bench chatting.

The two saw each other infrequently but their relationship managed to keep warming up, mainly because they shared the topic of basketball.

Whether it was with Swift or Scarlett before, their interest in basketball was rather limited.

Hansen was also genuinely interested in Ajalee’s major in marine studies, and they had already made plans to go scuba diving together in the summer.

At the moment, Abu came and sat between them, staring ahead.

When Hansen turned his head, he saw the golden afterglow of the sunset shining on Ajalee’s face.

Ajalee’s features were pronounced, with an exotic beauty in her frontal view, and at that moment, her profile radiated an indescribable beauty.

Hansen reached out and took Ajalee’s hand.

Ajalee turned to look at Hansen, and as they locked eyes, their heads unconsciously drew closer.
