0597:【Castle in the Sky Houston】(1/2)
Li Zhen is a person who doesn’t like to talk about it in front of the media.
It’s not that he wants to manage a low-key and mysterious character, but that he has too many secrets in his heart and does not want to ‘expose’.
Especially... after he finished the phone call with Elizabeth Olsen, who was learning acting skills in Russia, and then expressed his feelings to Ashley Olsen.
So, the task of receiving domestic journalists was handed over to Yi Jianlian.
Since the start of the game, UAE has averaged 6.5 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block in two games.
The data is really much worse than in Milwaukee, and his playing time has also dropped significantly. It turned out that the Bucks averaged about 30 minutes of playing time. But now... his playing time is only 15 minutes, and he has to share his playing time with Zach Randolph, Eddie Griffin...
Therefore, some domestic media, especially the media in eastern Guangdong, are particularly unfair, believing that Li Zhen did not really support Yi Jianlian.
However, UAE has no complaints about this. He has even talked with his US agent about the termination of the contract recently.
Feigan is a very ambitious agent. He hopes that he can copy the magic of Yao's agent. He has always been committed to making UAE into an NBA All-Star, so that he can help grow. Frankly speaking, his series of operations have a negative effect on Yi Jianlian: for example, he did not allow UAE to participate in any team's trial before the draft, and after being selected by Milwaukee, he did not cooperate many times. After imitating Boss Fur, he had to go to Milwaukee after failing to imitate Boss Fur.
And sign a mandatory contract for Yi... forcing the Bucks to give how many games they start and how much time they play.
Such a high standard, after Yi Jianlian failed to meet Milwaukee's expectations, he naturally parted ways: after all, small clubs like the Bucks want the commercial value of Albert and the performance of the stadium.
But in these two aspects, UAE is not satisfactory.
Ah Lian does not have the physical fitness of Li Zhen, nor does Yao Yun’s humorous conversation and super high emotional intelligence. Therefore, he is actually a person with very weak star attributes, and he is not really taken care of on the court. How could he stand out in such a chaotic team?
Therefore, the Bucks naturally couldn't wait to see him off after the end of the season.
Now, UAE has arrived in New York.
His agent remains strong, and he is dissatisfied with the Knicks' arrangement to play as a substitute and letting him learn blue-collar skills.
However, Ali Lian knew better than anyone else how difficult it is to develop his offensive methods to the All-Star level. Moreover, through this period of careful study, he realized that many of the offensive habits he developed in China were very likely. While he was not old, it was the time to quietly improve himself.
Therefore, he had serious disagreements with his agent.
There is a breakup recently.
He felt that he should stay in his current state, and he rejected the broker's trading advice.
Because, he really felt happiness and fulfillment that he had never felt before.
Although Li Zhen always treats every technical detail of him selflessly, he even criticizes him mercilessly on the training ground, which is much more harsh than other newcomers.
But in fact, when he was in New York, Li Zhen would drive him home every day. Moreover, on the plane, he often called him to the big seat behind and gave him a post-match review in Chinese.
With the assistance of a player like Li Zhen, Ah Lian felt that his overall view of the court was suddenly enlightened. Many things that were originally obscure and difficult to understand were instantly enlightened.
Of course, the most important thing is that Zach Randolph, Stephen Marbury, Eddie Griffin are really good. Although they like to play pranks, they always say that they want to take him to ride a foreign meat and ride a dark horse.
…It’s really warm.
Ah Lian felt that he would be pulled into the water sooner or later.
...
"I'm very happy."
In the past, Ah Lian was a person with weak expression skills. When faced with domestic reporters' inquiries, he seemed a little hesitant... and it seemed like he was kidnapped.
However, when he was interviewed by a group of domestic journalists in Houston, a bright smile appeared on his face.
He even took the initiative to talk about the jokes that have been widely circulated in the NBA recently: the gossip news that Zach Randolph pushed him into the female model's room, but he ran away in panic.
"I did run away. When you see two female models inside, how can you not run away?" Ah Lian said seriously: "They are just playing tricks. We didn't intend to match anything."
Look at Ah Lian’s serious appearance.
Some male reporters were stunned.
two?
Two of you still run away?
This is not allowed to take off.
But Alien is so straightforward.
No wonder he has no experience in being pincerated on the court. As a striker, his ability to hold the ball is too inferior and he should study hard with Li Zhen.
"Li Zhen is very good to me, and he helped me improve a lot. I have no requirements for playing time and data now. I am working hard to correct the bad habits I have developed in the past, and strengthen my control of the NBA rhythm and proficiency in tactics."
Alien responded calmly to the concerns of domestic journalists.
He suddenly realized that dealing with reporters became a very easy thing... Because dealing with Zachrandov's many difficulties, this guy was simply a problem-making machine, and he could always think of strange things: when playing tricks on rookies, Alien was simply amazing. He actually made the Spaniards compete with Italians and Snownians for lung capacity...who would first exaggerate the family planning tools.
In addition, he also asked the Chinese, Alien, to enforce the law because he only believed that Asians could enforce the law fairly.
At this time, Alien will always be glad that he is a second-year student.
Of course, Marc Gasol occasionally complains that he was actually the first round pick in 2007. However, Zach doesn't care about these: the number of years he entered the league should be based on.
There are always some press conferences asking the two core members of the Ali League national team, Yao Zhun and Li Zhen, who do you think is stronger?
This question is like your wife asks you, she and your mother fall into the water at the same time, who will you save first.
If it were the former Ah Lian, he would definitely be at a loss, and then he analyzed the technical styles of the two big men in a straightforward manner, and finally concluded that both of them were good big men.
But the UAE is no longer the UAE of the past.
After the baptism of old fried dough sticks such as Zach Randolph, Barnes, Griffin, he had learned to ask back a question: "If Li Zhen and Yao Yu fell into the water at the same time, who would you save first? You only have one chance and can only save one person. As a basketball reporter, you must have a deeper understanding."
Uh! Ah! Yes!
The reporter was stunned on the spot.
Don't play by the rules.
...
...
Li Zhen had no good feelings for Houston, so when the famous Grandet boss came to him with great pressure, he showed a rare indifference.
He was indifferent to Alexander's self-introduction.
Alexander told Li Zhen that he graduated from New York University and that he has a manor on Long Island. If Li Zhen likes to drink wine, he can give Li Zhen two homemade wines.
Li Zhen obviously looked down on this shabby gift.
The idea of Li Zhen and Yao Xu forming an invincible army that he later described was not unpredictable, because he also mentioned that Li Zhen could form the strongest trio in history with Tracy McGrady and Yao Xu.
Li Zhen felt it was unnecessary.
So, the meeting ended in a very calm atmosphere.
Even Aaron Brooks ran over to express his admiration to Li Zhen. This thin little defender was increasingly admiring Li Zhen.
He thought Li Zhen had taken a path he could not imagine: because when Li Zhen first entered the league, his physical confrontation was very bad, and he was also very fast.
So, he consulted Li Zhen for some weight gain skills.
Li Zhen can only use eating more and practicing more to perfunctory him.
...
Ron Artest is a very interesting person, and he is full of contradictions.
Although he was claiming that New York hurt his relationship a few days ago, his best reward for the people of his hometown was to defeat Li Zhen on the court.
However, when he met Li Zhen in the stadium, the first thing he did was to come over and say hello to Li Zhen: "Man, you don't know how much I want to play with you. I have heard your story from Jamal, and I can't worship you anymore."
"I know your concerns, and I will never be a trouble in the locker room. I also have musical dreams, and music-loving children will not become bad, right?"
"I won't ask for a high-value contract, I can accept the middle class."
"I can kill you and offend you. I will definitely do more professionally than Oakley next to Jordan. I come from a gangster family, and my grandma can still go and rob the bank at the age of 80."
"I can also help you with wing defense, Cameron, Pierce, James, these heavy small forwards have to worry about my existence!!"
“…”
Ron Artest talks endlessly.
Li Zhen was all moved by him.
If he had found Li Zhen more than a month ago, Li Zhen might have been really moved.
But now...well.
"You are still wearing the Red Team jersey." Li Zhen reminded him a little embarrassedly.
"It's okay. The contract will end this season, and I will be completely free next season." Artai's eyes were very fanatical.
So frenzy that Li Zhen was worried that this guy would be mentally broken because he was ruthlessly rejected.
So, he had to comfort him: You perform well. If you perform very well with Yao Yu, we can consider enrolling you without examination next summer.
Arte was immediately excited and excited.
Then, Yao Yun inexplicably added a earnest follower.
Yao felt very surprised. Ate, who had been very indifferent to him before, suddenly became enthusiastic. Moreover, when Adelman set up the tactics, Ate even refuted Tracy McGrady's request for more attacks.
"You have already gotten enough. You have to know that Yao's hit rate is higher than you. Moreover, he also has high-level support."
