0216: [Kobe is injured for a month, new opportunities come]

"It was an absolutely mind-blowing game. Especially Bruce, I swear, I saw a star in him. His performance tonight was impeccable, and I'm starting to believe that Nike invested so much in him.

Based on."

"He cleared a lot of doubts with this game. Players who are trying to make a name for themselves should think carefully about it."

"Of course, it must be said that his challenge has just begun. I cannot characterize this game as his victory over Arenas, who scored 58 points, although he had 23 points, 15 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 steals

Brilliant statistics, and he also hit a winning goal at a critical moment."

Before the on-site reporters connected, McBrin said very frankly: "I hope he can maintain the feeling of tonight's game and successfully become an All-Star star. I have seen too many short-lived rookies, and many rookies have played

It takes one game to become famous, but the sad thing is...not many can seize the opportunity and become stars."

McBrin's words are heart-wrenching words.

The NBA league comes and goes. There are too many rookies who played blockbuster games in their rookie seasons, but soon hit the rookie wall. Only a few were able to leapfrog and become stars. Most of them disappeared into the rotation, and even

...sadly withdrew from the alliance.

After McBrin finished speaking, the director cut the camera to the front line.

Bruce Lee was finally released by an excited Eddie Griffin and Kwame Brown.

"I enjoyed this game very much. We finally defeated a strong opponent through tenacious efforts. The fans at the scene gave us a lot of help. They are the most important sixth man on the court. My teammates are also very

I was touched that they supported my last shot. Without them, we would have had no chance to keep the victory in the countdown. As for the buzzer beater I hit, maybe it was luck. But anyway, it went in.

.”

Li Zhen showed a humble posture in front of the camera.

But in fact, everyone watching TV in front of the TV knows how tough this guy is, he just looks gentle. Whether it is facing Desmond Mason who hit him, or the superstar Ali who has risen rapidly in the league in the past two years.

Nas, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and he responds forcefully.

"We noticed that you had three direct conversations with Arenas at the last minute. You blocked him once and hit two 3-pointers on his head. It is known that he said a lot of 'disdain' for you before the game.

And before the Lakers requested the final timeout, he even walked up to you and talked trash. What did you think at that time?"

When an ESPN reporter asks this question, most players will say something to show their strength, or even pretend to be fierce.

However, Li Zhen is not like this at all. He said sincerely and without any pretense: "I am very grateful to him. If it weren't for him, I would not have performed beyond the standard."

Forehead….

The reporter was stunned.

The audience in front of the TV smiled knowingly: This is the most brilliant trash talk.

"We also noticed that... you spoke to Arenas before the start of the last two rounds. Can you reveal what you said at that time?"

The reporter continued to ask.

"secret."

Li Zhen smiled slightly. He did not share his mood of trash talking on the court with others.

Later, the reporter began to ask him how he felt about this game: "You broke the rookie record in this game. You got 15 assists. You also hit a buzzer beater. As we all know, before this game, you

I have endured a lot of doubts, and everyone thinks that you should not receive such a high investment from Nike..."

"First of all, Nike investment is a purely commercial behavior. It has nothing to do with the NBA. I am not a sneaker spokesperson. I am my own boss and create my own brand. I hope some players can understand this."

Li Zhen seriously answered the sour words surrounding him in the past two days.

"I am very grateful for this game. This game really helped me gain a lot and absorb a lot of energy. This gave me greater motivation and confidence to face the next challenges."

Li Zhen said very frankly.

But obviously, the reporter and the audience in front of the TV understood something completely different from him.

Steve Smith even talked in the commentary box about how hitting the winning goal improved Li Zhen's psychological quality and how this game helped Li Zhen's confidence.

This is the energy they understand.

But the energy Li Zhen is talking about is...the 6 points of jumping talent passively absorbed by former dunk king Mason's flagrant foul, the 4 points of physical fitness taken from the fallen Arenas, the 4 points of explosive power taken from the fallen Jamison, and the fallen

Heywood grabs 2 points of strength.

Who would have thought that one game could be so fruitful?

Who would have thought that such a small Washington Wizard could be so hidden.

When leaving the court, Li Zhen was even thinking: Did the three degenerates of the Wizards act collectively last night? He seemed to have seen a similar plot in the VCD in his father's study when he was a child.

Uh...ah, that's right.

Professor Li sneezed.

He never thought that the secret he hid in his study would be discovered by his young and ignorant son, and he would be so impressed that he still remembers it.

It's like finding out in the garage that the woman you've been chatting with for two hours, whose aesthetics are similar, and whom you hate to meet so late, is actually Hilary Duff's Queen Anne.

When Hilary Duff followed Professor Li and his wife to the underground parking lot, she unloaded her parcel.

Then, she saw King Anne with a shocked face.

Ms. Wang obviously did not expect that the Hollywood actress who rear-ended her son with her car, took him to her boudoir, and then sent him to the training gym would actually sit in front of her and talk for two hours about the beauty of oriental clothing.

"Um...Hello. Hilary Duff." Ms. Wang Junzhu reacted after a stalemate for almost twenty seconds.

At this time, Hilary Duff showed surprise: "You actually know me?"

"I also met you through the scandal between you and my son." Anne Wang confessed.

Then, Hilary Duff was also shocked.

It's like Bruce Lee learning in the locker room that Kobe Bryant is going to take a month off.

"Isn't it a simple wound? Why did you rest for so long?"

Li Zhen asked incredulously.

"Kobe's agent Pelinka intervened in this matter. He has persuaded Kobe to undergo minor surgery to repair his finger joints at the same time. Therefore, he will need to rest for nearly a month in total, and it is very likely that he will not return to the Christmas game."

After assistant coach Brian Shaw said this, he did not forget to lower his voice and said in Li Zhen's ear: "So, your opportunity has come, man. You have to seize it. Whether you can become the second core of the Lakers in one fell swoop will

Let’s see this time.”

"However, Andrew Bynum is also working hard. He also wants to take advantage of the month when Kobe is away to become the core of the team. Kupchak and Jim Buss both support him. However, I am more optimistic about you, kid. You are today

The late buzzer beater was so cool."

Brian Shaw patted Li Zhen on the shoulder.

This is Bruce's good popularity in the locker room. He can always know all kinds of news in advance.

If he wanted to pry, he could even know what dinner Bynum had tonight and what flavors of candy Lamar Odom had.

He got along well with all the staff, so when he walked from the player tunnel, almost everyone stretched out their hands to express congratulations to him. Li Zhen did not mind being verbose at all. He high-fived everyone and chatted a few words by the way.

.

When Li Zhen came out of the shower, he bumped into Andrew Bynum.

Bynum glanced at Li Zhen with great jealousy: "Boy, don't think you can control everything. I will get back everything that belongs to me soon."

Li Zhen didn't bother to talk to him at all.

The team's public relations manager quickly came over and invited him to attend the post-game press conference. This was the first time he was invited to the post-game press conference... because this is usually a right reserved for the best player on the team.

At the press conference, Li Zhen responded calmly. In most cases, he just modified the answers he gave to ESPN sideline reporters and said them again.

But... what he didn't expect was that Arenas actually announced the content of the conversations before the last two matchups 10 minutes ago.

He told reporters: Bruce said if I didn't score, he would win.

Also, I actually knew where he would end up shooting because he told me in advance. Just like Larry Bird did when he welcomed the rookie.

Arenas is a man who speaks freely. He didn't know that his narration would make Li Zhen's image fuller and more legendary.

He just told reporters firmly after saying these words: "I will never give up. Although I lost the game tonight, this is... my opportunity to make a comeback."

Adidas almost wanted to sew his mouth shut.

At this time, what else is there to say about opportunity or not? Our public relations department is already preparing the draft of "58-point victory" for you. Do you have to make success even though failure is glorious?

And he also told Li Zhen’s last moments of rubbish. Isn’t this trying to elevate others and belittle oneself?

We have put so much effort into this game. We originally wanted to use Li Zhen’s brand to rise to the top, but it turned out better for you. I can’t wait to tell the world: How awesome Li Zhen’s performance was at the last moment. First, he blocked the shot in advance, and then he came again.

A Bird-like pretense.

It's over.

The green dollar bills and all the publicity were done by Li Zhen.

While Adi sighed, the marketing department of Li Zhen Brand was so happy. They didn't spend a dime, and now the whole world knows about Bruce Lee's great achievements... Is there anything more satisfying than lying down and brushing up on performance?

This opening shot was so loud!

Li Zhen obviously didn't know how much publicity this game would bring to his brand.

When he returned home after the press conference, everyone was shocked.

What is this?

Is there a fire in the backyard?
