"Elvin, your physique has improved a lot since last year! That's impressive. When I reach your age, I definitely can't do it. I'm too lazy."
"You don't need to maintain a physique like mine. I'm still chasing honors. By the time you reach my age, you'll definitely have more rings than I do."
"No, no, no, how could I compare to you..."
These two social butterflies, both top draft picks 13 years apart, began their commercial mutual flattery.
While flattering each other, the teammates arrived one by one.
Watching each teammate arrive, O'Neal could immediately chat a few words with them; he seemed to have a good relationship with everyone.
When Barkley came, O'Neal and Barkley were all smiles, playfully insulting each other.
Even with new recruit Kenny Anderson, close to Zhang Hao, O'Neal managed to make conversation. Although not close, there was no animosity.
The more teammates arrived, the more lively O'Neal became, often amusing the others with laughter...
