Buddha's light illuminates NBA

Chapter 116 Donnie Walsh of Nuclear Goodness
When the plane landed at LaGuardia Airport in New York against the dawn, the sun rising from the Atlantic Ocean had already touched the skirt of the Statue of Liberty.

The front of the Statue of Liberty is plated with gold.

Every inch of golden light is pasted by this country with years of capital. It is as rotten as the dawn and dazzling.

It was Lu Ming's first consecutive away game, and he felt a little strange.

"Lu, it's just seven o'clock. Go home and pack up first, and arrive at the arena before 09:30." The bus stopped in front of the apartment, and when Lu Ming got off, the team's spokesperson made a special statement.

Nothing to clean up either.

It's not the first time to attend a press conference, although the situation may be different this time.

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, it was 09:30 am New York time.

On November 11th, at 28:9, in New York City on the weekend, the sun was high, and the sunshine after the morning sun died down was so white that it made people feel flustered.

Lu Ming was a little nervous behind the stage.

Sitting next to him was classmate You Ya, who came to accompany him early in the morning, didn't speak, just stayed with him.

Lu Ming forced himself to calm down.

At this time, Downey Walsh took the stage to speak first.

"Sorry for not having a great weekend for everyone. However, I think that maybe you wished that something like this happened every day."

After Donny Walsh's opening remarks, he continued, "Maybe everyone must also be curious and wondering why we chose this time to hold a press conference. Instead of waiting for the test results to come out, use those things to ruthlessly respond to those shameless doubts."

Journalists want to say, yes, we are indeed curious.

But that's not the point today.

If you finish your speech immediately and let Lu Ming come out to accept our interview, we will feel that this weekend will be extremely beautiful.

"Okay, since you're curious, I'll take a few minutes of the opening press conference and say something from my heart." Donny Walsh smiled and controlled the audience.

Hey, we were just curious and didn't ask!
Also, how many small commas will there be in these two sentences of yours?

Although the media reporters were impatient, they wanted Donnie Walsh to finish quickly and hand Lu Ming over to them.

But I can only endure it.

"very good."

Donnie Walsh was very satisfied with the expectant eyes of the reporters. He sat there with his hair scrunchie and began to speak, "Since Ewing left New York, the Knicks' home court, for a long time, the fans left every day disappointed because they couldn't cheer for their star. Although we had short-term expectations during this period, it was not until the beginning of this season that we really saw hope."

At the beginning, it summed up the modern history of the Knicks in the past ten years.

At the same time, when Donny Walsh's words fell, Lu Ming's average per game data since the season appeared on the big screens on both sides.

28.9 points, the highest among rookies and third in the league!

12.4 assists, first in the league!

7.9 rebounds!
2.5 steals, first among rookies, second in the league!
1.5 caps!
21 of 9 shots, 42.9% shooting!

6 of 2 three-pointers, 33.3% shooting!

7 of 6 free throws, 85.7% shooting!

The reporters listened, watched, and thought about it, and it seemed that it was true.

This data, how can a rookie can play it?
Although everyone knows that this is the stats of 14 games played, as the season progresses, Lu Ming's various stats are bound to decline.

However, this is enough to shock people.

So some people began to think, it seems that it is time to consider re-ranking a draft pick in the 09 class.

Blake Griffin, the No. [-] pick who is recuperating at home: Don't you think about my face as the No. [-] pick at all?
Wait, wait for me!

When I come back, I will die!

"But now, someone actually wants to destroy our hope! I will not agree, the Knicks will not agree, and New Yorkers will not agree!"

Donnie Walsh, who always seemed elegant and easy-going, suddenly slapped down the table. When he rushed to the scene, he caught the reporters and showed a kind smile, "So, we will not be beaten passively! We will not allow those with ulterior motives to ruin our hopes! Therefore, we held a press conference immediately without waiting for the result. First, we don't want our super rookies to be free while waiting for the test results to be judged!"

Donny Walsh's words are resounding.

Although, it has far exceeded the limit of two sentences.

"Secondly, I want to tell those people that Lu Ming is the hope of the Knicks. If you want to destroy him, then first ask me if I agree! Ask the Knicks if you agree! Ask the New Yorkers if you agree!" Donnie Walsh had already stood up, pressing his hands on the table, and once again showed his elegant and easy-going eyes.

"We will never agree!" The security personnel maintaining order responded loudly.

Even Lu Ming, who was in the background, felt a little emotional.

Sure enough, no general manager is mediocre.

Donnie Walsh glanced at the workpiece worker, nodded with a smile, and will give you a promotion and salary increase later.

"Third and very important point, basketball is a passionate sport, so we will choose a tougher and passionate attitude to respond to those extremely shameless doubts!"

After finishing speaking, Donnie Walsh looked around for a week, "I'm done talking, pick up, if you have any questions, you can ask them now."

To be honest, the media reporters were shocked by Downey Walsh's sudden arrogance.

Of course, there are also those who are excited about it.

After answering a few innocuous questions from the reporters, Donnie Walsh knew that they had prepared some questions and waited until Lu Ming came on stage to ask them.

However, before Lu Ming played, D'Antoni, the head coach, also had to show his face.

After that, it was Lu Ming's teammates.

Although everyone had very little time to play, they only expressed their support for Lu Ming and their dissatisfaction with the media reporters from the standpoint of coaches and teammates.

"Student Lu Ming, why does it feel like the regular season MVP awards?" You Ya patted the back of Lu Ming's hand and said in a low voice with a smile.

"It's quite a bit." Lu Ming was stunned and said.

"Speaking of which, when will you be able to win the MVP of the regular season?" Before the end of the rookie season, You Ya was already looking forward to Lu Ming becoming Mr. MVP.

Thinking a little far.

Lu Ming wasn't nervous anymore. When the whole team supported him unconditionally, he now had infinite strength.

So regarding Youya's expectations, he just asked back, "If there was a time, would you still be like today, just like this, sitting here with me?"

His gaze was on the stage.

"Well, it depends on your performance."

"Then it's a word."

"what?"

Lu Ming turned his head, looked at You Ya seriously, and stretched out his palm.

Youya also stretched out her palm and snapped, "It's a deal."

Hall next to him really wanted to say, "Hey, you two, can you pay attention to the occasion? Take care of the manager's mood?"

But he shouldn't be here.

Finally, at a quarter past ten, after all the pre-dinner desserts were served, Lu Ming, the main course of the press conference, appeared.

The reporters also cheered up.

"I won't talk anymore. Those who have prepared questions can ask questions at any time." After sitting down, Lu Ming didn't say much, and went straight to the point.

Lu Ming is straightforward, and the reporters are not procrastinating.

The first one to ask questions was not the Mr. Superman with glasses sitting in the middle, but the Mr. 25%.

He didn't let everyone down, and looked at Lu Ming with anticipation, "Lu, the next game will be the Magic, which is the Knicks' home court. Is it possible to score 62 points? It doesn't take much, 62 points is fine!"

"Haha!" The reporters laughed.

Only Superman with glasses sneered.

Lu Ming looked helplessly at the reporter, who already knew his name was Bell Lawrence, and said, "Mr. Lawrence, if I score 62 points at home tomorrow, I guess today's press conference will have to be held again."

"Are you afraid that those bad guys will question you, so you don't dare to use your full strength?" Bell Lawrence's brain circuit was really extraordinary.

"Yes." Lu Ming didn't dare to say too much.

"Oh, Shet! I'm sorry, Lu, I'm not talking about you. God, if I see that guy, I'll give him a punch! Let him know that we waist twisters are not easy to mess with!" Bell Lawrence said loudly.

"Hey, Bell, he's at the third position from your left." Someone said suddenly.

Of course Bell Lawrence knew it, but after turning his head, he also made a shocked expression and regretted it, "Oh, no, why is he on my left instead of my right? He's bullying me, isn't he a left-handed craftsman?"

"..." Everyone was speechless.

Superman with glasses continued to sneer.

"Bell, you better shut up now."

At this time, another reporter spoke, and he asked Lu Ming directly, "Lu, although we all know that there is no evidence at all to question you this time, I still hope that you can respond positively."

"My positive response is that what didn't happen didn't happen." Lu Ming said.

That's all I can say.

Any extra words would seem like a waste of saliva.

"But you have no evidence to prove that you have not used prohibited drugs. And this is also the reason why those people questioned you and attacked you." The reporter said.

"If you don't have evidence, you can be suspected. If you start from this logic, then the lawyer group may be the happiest. Everyone can suspect that another person is a thief, a robber, or a robber anytime, anywhere, unless he can prove that he is not. Therefore, people who have no evidence generally want to prove themselves and seek the help of a lawyer. " Lu Ming said.

Everyone listened, thought about it, and laughed.

Superman with glasses opened his mouth, but did not speak.

To be honest, what Donny Walsh said at the beginning made him a little shaken.

Is it worth fighting the Knicks for a little Mane?

There are not a few people who have the same idea as him.

So a press conference, in the eyes of outsiders, might be the best occasion to attack Lu Ming. Because of the tough attitude of the Knicks management, and because of Donnie Walsh's muscle show, those attacks that were ready to go, finally died down.

It's quite anticlimactic.

Finally, Louise Clifton, who appeared at the press conference, asked Lu Ming a seemingly normal question, "Lu, we all know that you were originally a Buddhist student, why did you choose to play basketball?"

"Why do I play basketball?"

Lu Ming was stunned by such a simple question.
