These fans all thought that Li Zhe would become a US citizen, and it was difficult to accept emotionally.

At first, he didn't know about this, so Xiaofei rushed to the training room to tell everything.

After watching the video, he was very upset that Times magazine deliberately used editing techniques to mislead fans. At the same time, he was deeply angry that he was slandered. He immediately called the other party's staff and asked to remove the video. The reply he received was that this matter required a process, and he would give a reply within about 3 to 5 working days.

The other party did not clearly violate the law, so it was difficult to use legal means to restrict it. He had no power or power, and it was impossible to find someone to help him by delaying his relationship. Li Zhe could only swallow his anger.

In order to minimize the losses, Li Zhe temporarily finished training and hurried back to the dormitory to record the explanation video, accompanied by text explanation, and published it to major sports forums in China.

Unfortunately, because the first wave spread too widely, and it was in a special period at this time, it did not win too much trust from fans.

"Time magazine is so authoritative, do you mean they are fake? This method of cleaning the floor is too rough!"

"Why do you have to wait so long to explain? Are you having a meeting to discuss PR methods?"

"No matter how good you play, we don't welcome you, let alone you have become a dish."

Seeing the remarks criticizing him received a lot of support, Li Zhe was speechless, but since he had already explained, there was no need to continue to struggle, because it was very difficult to convince a group of emotional people.

Fortunately, Bill Duffy said that he could speak out for him through Yao Min, which should significantly reduce the adverse effects.

On the afternoon of the 27th, the Trojans challenged the Golden Bears in Berkeley, California away.

Just 3 minutes into the game, DeRozan returned to the bench due to a foul. In addition, Gibson was implemented by the opponent's power forward, so Li Zhe had to choose to play a pick-and-roll with Vucevic.

As a result, the Golden Bears' defensive pressure was greatly reduced. They often defended three times on the outside, and blocked various sieges, making it difficult for Li Zhe to pass the ball and make it more difficult for him to break through or shoot, resulting in 6 points behind in the first half.

The midfield time was suspended, and many fans made comments.

Although the content is different, there is one idea that the Golden Bears does not have any player on the rookie prediction list, while the Trojans has four players on the score, which is really hard to accept.

Especially Li Zhe, three mistakes and 2 of 8 shots, was simply eye-catching.

By the second half, DeRozan returned to the game and Li Zhe began to try more without the ball.

After half a month of hard practice, he finally helped him improve. He made all the first three shots, successfully helping the team tie.

The Golden Bears immediately strengthened their defense against him, and DeRozan and others naturally got an offensive opportunity, but their efficiency was relatively low.

The game ended in the last 10 seconds, and the two teams drew.

The entire Trojan team provided cover for Li Zhe, but unfortunately they failed to hit the final kill.

After the overtime starts, DeRozan's fouls over and becomes a trouble again.

Li Zhe carried the banner of attack, but the Golden Bears team doubled him like crazy, with large-scale actions emerging one after another, just like a mortal who saw the gods falling to the world and losing their divine power, had a desire to bully them.

Fortunately, Vucevic and Gibson made excellent plays, and the two teams played again until the last 10 seconds, and the Golden Bears only led by 2 points.

The Trojans have another ball right. Head coach Tim instructed Li Zhe to execute the final shot, hoping that he could regain his form through this game and help the team to a higher level. However, Pell, who was unhappy with him, implyed that his shooting rate was relatively low, and some other players immediately expressed the same idea, but Tim did not change his mind and expressed that he always believed him.

Unexpectedly, after Li Zhe used the cover to run out of space to catch the ball, he actually shot a three-no-touch shot.

The entire Trojan team was confused, and head coach Tim was even more embarrassed.

But Li Zhe knew that it was because the Golden Bears defender fouled, but he did not get a reply to the theory he asked the referee.

When the Golden Bears successfully sent the last goal, the game time was exhausted and the Trojans lost two consecutive games.

In the whole game, Li Zhe made 9 of 19 shots, made 2 of 3 free throws, and scored 25 points and 8 assists.

But even if the data returned to normal, he could not avoid fans' doubts.

"Waste two final chances? What's the point of winning? You can't win without DeRozan."

"Don't be confused. He can get 25 points because he has a lot of power to take action."

"It is worth mentioning that although he has 8 assists, he also has 5 turnovers."

Li Zhe did not reply after reading this comment that did not question his personal choice.

After a day off, the Trojans went to Stanford to challenge the Sequoia away.

I originally thought it was a game that ended a losing streak, but the result was one-sided.

Sequoia defender Anthony Guz is in full form, and Li Zhe is hard to limit his efforts. He also lost three fouls for this, causing the Trojans to fall into a passive foul strategy.

The worst thing is that when it was Li Zhe's turn to attack, the Sequoia team doubled in the backcourt, and Hackett felt too bad, and the point guard shot and made a lot of shots, which directly formed a vicious cycle.

In the end, after the whole game, the Sequoia won 12 points, and the Trojans suffered three consecutive losses.

Li Zhe made 3 of 9 shots in the game, plus one free throw, and scored a total of 8 points and 6 assists, and 3 turnovers.

As soon as the game was concerned, the dark guys on social networks fell into madness again.

"Jamie Lee's defense is the same as my grandfather in a wheelchair, which is about no."

"Look! His true colors were revealed after 9 attempts, and he was only at this level."

"A little more forgiving, at least he has reduced his turnovers, of course this may be because he has less playing time."

The vast number of negative comments did not affect Li Zhe's mentality. After he returned to school, he immediately devoted himself to hard practice.

The main attacker still catches the ball and shoots, but the content changes to adjust the shooting movements according to different defenders.

While he was practicing hard, Time magazine set his photo as a cover in the first magazine in March and published an article called "Jamie Lee's American Dream".

The content of this article is completely true, and it elaborates on the entire interview in detail, but the bad influence has been caused. In addition, some people deliberately guide public opinion, Chinese fans still scold him.

Affected by this, the condom manufacturer asked him to repay the 20,000 US dollars in advance, Xiaofei had to borrow money everywhere, and another snack manufacturer finally made a decision not to ask him to endorse him.

What’s even more depressing is that TMZ issued an announcement claiming that Nike’s signing of Li Zhe was a rumor.

In order to please fans again, TMZ immediately released another news claiming that Lakers boss Jerry Bass has given up getting Li Zhe, and the Warriors have also suspended the inspection of Li Zhe, and said that the news is absolutely true.

Logically speaking, these two news should have no effect on Li Zhe, but when he went to the school training center again, many players were obviously not as enthusiastic as before, and the only one who was willing to cooperate with his training was Hackett.

Perr deliberately provoked trouble and fought with him, and no one came forward to stop him except DeRozan and Hackett.

On March 8, the Trojans ushered in the final game of the regular season at home.

The opponent is the last University of Oregon in the Pacific 10th Division. Although he won easily, Li Zhe only made 9 shots due to a large number of double-teams, and finally scored 17 points and 4 assists.

With the end of the regular season, NBADRAFT released its rookie prediction again, and Li Zhe slipped from 7th to 28th pick.

Just as fans lamented that he was magical no longer, ESPN released a news release.

"The Trojans head coach has decided to remove Jamie Lee from the starting position."
