When he took it, it was a cheesecake, about seven inches in size, with a cute little girl model branded on top.
"Where did you buy this cake? It looks delicious." Tang Tian liked to eat cake in his past life, and Olsen just happened to suit his taste.
"Really?" Olsen's face lit up when she heard this, and all the previous little disappointment disappeared.
"Huh?" Tang Tian looked at Olsen suspiciously. He didn't think she would be so happy just because he praised her for buying a good cake, right?
"Did you make it yourself?" He thought of a possibility.
Olsen smiled and nodded.
Whoa!
Tang Tian was a little surprised. He really didn't expect Olsen to have this skill.
"Want to try it?" Olsen said expectantly.
Tang Tian nodded and sat in the passenger seat to open the cake.
If it was bought, then he didn't need to eat it now. If Olsen made it herself, it would be different.
He cut a small piece and put it in his mouth under Olsen's expectant gaze.
It was sweet but not greasy, and baked just right. Even for a cake connoisseur like him, he thought it was very good.
He ate a second piece.
"It's delicious," he said with a smile.
"Really? Are you just saying that to make me happy?" Olsen asked.
"It's really good. It seems you're good at this." Tang Tian shook his head.
"Thank you." Olsen's emotions suddenly fluctuated at this time.
Tang Tian looked at her suspiciously.
"You're the first person to say my cake is delicious," Olsen said with a smile.
"Uh... does everyone else think it's not good?" Tang Tian couldn't understand. This cake tasted really good.
"No, they don't want to eat it." Olsen continued, with some disappointment in her eyes.
"They?"
"My family."
"Oh, then they're missing out. Ordinary people don't have the chance to eat this kind of cake." Tang Tian said with a smile.
Olsen's smile was a little sweet.
"Okay, hurry up and go, your teammates must have been waiting for you for a while." Olsen continued.
Tang Tian nodded, said hello to Olsen, and then walked away with the cake.
Turning his head to look at the Lamborghini that had just driven away, he suddenly became a little curious.
Olsen seemed very down when she mentioned her family. Did she have some problem with them?
"No way? You're back already?" Looking at Tang Tian appearing at the door, Walker was full of surprise. He was just joking before, but he's back without having lunch?
"Why wouldn't I be back? Aren't you waiting for me to eat?" Tang Tian said with a smile.
"...It seems I'm more attractive than your sexy girl." Walker nodded seriously, and couldn't help laughing out loud after he finished speaking.
"There's cake, want to eat? It tastes pretty good." Tang Tian said, putting the cake on the table.
"Did the sexy girl give it?" Walker asked.
"Her name is Olsen." Tang Tian felt weird listening to Walker talking about the sexy girl all the time.
"Olsen? I've heard of the Olsen sisters, but I've never seen this one."
"Just a last name." Tang Tian said, opening the cake.
"Um, no, I won't eat it. The girl has good intentions, how can I steal from you? Don't eat it either, we'll go to lunch later."
"That's true, then let's save it for snacks during the game." Tang Tian said.
"Good idea. Now that you mention it, I have to buy one when I go to lunch later." Walker replied with a smile.
Tonight's game against the University of Arizona could be foreseen as a fierce battle, and the physical exertion would be great. Bringing a cake to replenish energy was a good choice.
That night's game attracted a large number of media and scouts to the arena, not just those from the night before. Because of Walker's presence, teams like the Jazz, Suns, and Rockets, who held lottery edge draft picks, also came to the scene.
The NCAA March Madness kicked off, and the prediction lists on various websites were also freshly released. Walker was now on the edge of the lottery.
Jefferson and Terry came to the scene, but this time, UConn also had alumni, Emeka Okafor and Ben Gordon. Unlike Jefferson and Terry, they played together at UConn in 2004, and the topics they were talking about at this time were obviously much more.
"Do you think Tang can defend Williams?"
"Do you think Kyle Fogg can defend Walker?"
"I have a hunch that the old man will prepare a big move for this game."
...
The two of them kept chatting before the game even started.
The opening ceremony at the scene was also more lively than the previous games. After the players from both sides appeared, the fans began to chant their respective slogans in an organized manner, competing in the air.
The tense atmosphere at the scene made the game even more anticipated.
As soon as the opening ceremony ended, UConn gave the fans at the scene a surprise. Their starting lineup had changed. Oriakhi replaced Smith as the starter, and Tang Tian became the small forward.
UConn had previously announced the news internally, but it was kept absolutely confidential. This sudden appearance still surprised everyone.
Although the defense on the court was not necessarily matched, Oriakhi obviously couldn't defend Solomon Hill, so it could basically be determined that Tang Tian would not defend Williams.
Not letting the team's best defensive player defend the opponent's ace, everyone was curious about what Calhoun was up to.
"Derrick, UConn doesn't seem to think much of you?" After watching UConn's starting lineup, Hill couldn't help but turn to Williams and said.
"They'll regret it." Williams was also a little unhappy. Although he didn't think Tang Tian could defend him, he still preferred the game to be more challenging.
"But this is a good thing, I can try his level for you first." Hill said with a smile.
Williams nodded without speaking. Tang Tian could definitely defend Hill. What he was thinking now was to blow up Oriakhi early in the game, so that UConn would definitely let Tang Tian defend him, and then the game would be interesting.
Tang Tian saw Olsen in the front row at this time. He didn't look much when he asked Walker for tickets, but he didn't expect Walker to give him the front row seats.
Olsen's face was full of smiles. She was surprised and delighted to be able to sit in the front row, but this position also allowed her to cheer for Tang Tian more closely.
After the pre-match warm-up, the starting players of the two teams took the stage one after another.
On the University of Arizona side, the guards were 1.91-meter white point guard Nick Johnson and 1.96-meter all-around Kyle Fogg, the forwards were Solomon Hill and Derrick Williams, and the center was Jesse Perry.
On the UConn side, the guards were Walker and Lamb, the forwards were Tang Tian and Oriakhi, and the center was Oriakhi.
Oriakhi and Perry jumped for the ball in the center of the court.
The emotions of the fans at the scene were on the verge of erupting.
Tang Tian looked at the opposing lineup at this time.
Among these five people, he knew four of them. Williams didn't need to be said, Solomon Hill was a first-round pick in 2012, Nick Johnson was a rookie in 2014 who played for the Rockets, and there was also Kyle Fogg, who played in the Chinese CBA and had a single-game 60+ performance.
Three NBA-level starters, one NBA marginal player, as the pace of March Madness moves forward, the strength of the opponents is also getting stronger.
