Chapter 59 Interview
"You're right. I missed the last shot. It's just the last 3 minutes. I'll replace you. Can you do it?"

This is what Ze Yang said to Willie Green after Cheeks and most of his teammates left.

It's not about talking too much, it's about finesse, do what you do.

Do you really think that I have such a good temper and won't fight back, just let you point your nose and say?
Yang Ze asked Yang Yi to wait for a while, took a shower, and asked Yang Yi to go back to the hotel room together.

In the middle of the night, when men and women are in the same room, it's easy to make people think wrong.

But Yang Yi is very dedicated, it's all about work, and it's all for work.

"Actually, we don't know much about you, but after watching the game today, I was really scared."

Yang Ze stared wide-eyed, looked at Yang Yi, and said, "Scared you?"

"Yes, it just scared me." Yang Yi adjusted his glasses and continued, "I thought that when a Chinese guard entered the NBA, he would basically play the role of water dispenser administrator. I didn't expect that you would not only get the chance to play, but also play well So good, in my opinion, your future achievements will not be lower than Yao Ming."

Don't, brother.

Others don't know, but I know that Yao Ming played very well in the NBA and was once the title of the number one center. However, Yao Ming lost to injuries, which shortened his career and failed to win the championship.

Yang Ze was aiming to win the championship with Iverson. Of course, it would be wonderful if he could also win the championship with Yao Ming.

"Ahem" Yang Ze coughed twice and said, "Thank you for your evaluation. It is also my honor to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Dayao. I also hope to have that day."

Yang Yi nodded, and took out a laptop and a small notebook from his backpack. After the audio and video equipment was adjusted, the interview officially started.

"Let's talk about today's game first."

Seeing Yang Ze nodding, Yang Yi continued: "Today's game is really a pity, did the last shot cause you any trouble?"

If it is the end of the game, there will definitely be some, but now Yang Ze has figured it out.

"No, I hope to succeed in such things as lore. Even if I fail, it's okay. Just like the head coach told me, we must face up to failure and face up to our own shortcomings."

Yang Yi nodded in agreement, and said: "Great, you are still a player with a good heart, and today's performance is also very good, especially your three-pointer, six points in a row in the first quarter, how did you do it?" Did it?"

"You are a senior, you should also know that every time you make a goal on the court, you need countless times of practice off the court. To score 6 points in a row, in addition to your own efforts, the help of your teammates is also inseparable. Iverson Helped me attract a lot of defenses, so I had a better chance."

Yang Yi: "By the way, when did you start playing professional basketball and how long have you been preparing for the NBA?"

"It's a long story, this dates back to March last year"

Yang Ze didn't hide it either, this is an opportunity for him to gain fans, and it's also a time for the world to know the greatness of Colin Blair.

He told Yang Yi how Colin's family supported him in training and helped him, as well as Colin's condition, and how their family had paid a lot to let Yang Ze feel at ease to participate in the draft.

"How is this Colin now? He is your nobleman."

"He's being treated in a hospital in Philadelphia."

"Unfortunately, time is tight this time, and I may not be able to go to Philadelphia, otherwise I really want to meet such a person." Yang Yi continued to ask, "What about after that?"

Ze Yang: "After that, I found Iverson and trained with him for two months. He taught me a lot, dribbling, passing, and defense. Although I was abused every day, Iverson still persisted. He I don't like the fact that the food is abused."

Hearing this, Yang Yi couldn't help but smile.

"I am very grateful to the people who helped me on my way to the NBA, and I will give back to them with actions."

"You have put in so much hard work in the past two years, and now you have finally gained a foothold in the NBA. Do you think it is worth it?"

"Of course it's worth it." Yang Ze said, "The NBA is the dream of every basketball player, and to play in the best hall of basketball in the world, I think no matter how much you pay, it's worth it.

Although the training is bitter, tiring, and boring, it is not an experience in growing up, a kind of wealth.

I think no matter how much you pay, the moment you hit the first goal in an NBA game, you will understand that it is really worth it. "

Knowing about Yang Ze's past, Yang Yi asked again: "Let's talk about the future, what do you think about your future, or do you have any plans?"

"I will give myself a big goal, and then divide it into small goals to complete him. For example, the big goal is the championship. According to the current situation, my small goal is to enter the regular rotation first, strive for more playing time, and then fight for the championship. Played as a starter and brought the 76ers into the playoffs.

As long as I can play, whether facing the Spurs or the Lakers, whether it is the Pistons or the Suns, I will do my best to win the game. "

"What's the atmosphere in the team, the head coach should value you a lot?"

"Yes, thanks to Coach Cheeks, and the team encourages healthy competition."

Yang Yi has a lot of questions. Of course, this is the first time that Yang Ze has accepted an exclusive interview. Before that, there are really not many stories and information about him.

An hour later, Yang Yi took a sip of water, thought for a while, and asked again: "There is one last question. I know that your talent may not be the best, but you are a very hardworking player. You will Keep improving. When you achieve something in the NBA, will you do your part for the national team, such as winning glory for the country at the World Championships or the Olympics?"

Yang Ze didn't think much about it. Although he is in the United States and speaks English every day, he will never forget that he is a descendant of Chinese people. Playing in the United States can improve his skills and even break some of his upper limits. It is essential to honor and win honor for the country. This is the patriotic feeling engraved in the bones of the Chinese people.

"As long as the national team needs me and calls me up, I will agree without hesitation. If I can help the Chinese men's basketball team against the American dream team, I will also be obliged."

Yang Yi just said it was the last question. After Yang Ze finished answering, they chatted for half an hour before Yang Yi packed up his equipment and prepared to leave.

He had sent back the information of the day's game and Yang Ze's deeds to the newspaper overnight, and then left for the country early the next morning.

On December 12, the Basketball Pioneer newspaper introduced Yang Ze with almost an entire page.

On that page of the Herald, there was an eye-catching headline in bold and bold:

China's new stars are rising in the NBA
——The Story of Yang Ze and Basketball

The next quarter of the article is the details of the game between the 76ers and the New Jersey Nets, and Yang Ze's performance is even more colorful.

On the right side of the page is the highlight moment when Ze Yang wore the No. 76 jersey of the 1ers and dunked Eddie House.

The bottom half of the article tells about Yang Ze's hard work for the NBA, training with Colin, and playing games in West Lion Club, etc., and there are notes at the back, which will be told in three parts.

Once the newspaper was released, countless domestic fans were shocked. It was the first time they had heard of Yang Ze and knew that there was another Chinese player in the NBA.

For a Chinese player to enter the NBA, this is a big event in the eyes of the fans, but the lore that Yang Ze missed in the end did not attract much attention.

Under the dual promotion of CCTV broadcast and the Herald News, Yang Ze gained a huge number of fans overnight, and the words Philadelphia 76ers, Yang Ze, and Iverson also spread in the stadiums of major campuses.

The 76ers also became the home team of the Chinese for a while. Iverson was already very popular in the country, and with the addition of Ze Yang, the raging flames became even more inflamed.

This is also beneficial to the 76ers, and the attention they gain is also rising for a while.

Because the 76ers have two consecutive away games, the time is relatively tight, and they did not return to Philadelphia. Instead, they flew directly to the next stop and challenged the Chicago Bulls again.

Chicago is a place that Yang Ze is not very familiar with. The failure of the joint trial training and the subsequent transfer made Chicago become one of Yang Ze's sad places for a while.

But when his teammates were still resting in the hotel, Ze Yang went to Cheeks to ask for a training hall with the home team, and he went to train alone.
