I'm a basketball star

Chapter 131 [The First Battle in Yincheng: Gaining Countless Fans]

The Indiana Pacers' Bankers Life Arena.There are still more than two hours before Landon's first preseason game.

Generally speaking, a pre-match press conference is held between one and two hours before the game, and the head coach will take a player to be interviewed.Sanders led Luden, and the head coach of the Pacers led Roy Hibbert, who was once known as "Black Yao Ming".

Hibbert is really a magical existence.Last season, his high-profile start and big landslide were rare and weird events in history.

No injuries, no roster changes, no family mishaps, and all of a sudden, he went from being the Defensive Player of the Year booked at the start of the season to a restless old man.

Many people analyzed that it may be caused by the sequelae of a concussion with LeBron once.

There is also a rumor that Paul George slept with his girlfriend.

If the rumors are true, this one is more like the reason for Hibbert's sudden landslide.

Who knows, things outside the stadium are difficult to verify, and it is even more difficult to verify whether the secrets between players are true or false.

One-third of the media participating in this press conference were from China, and their questions were only focused on Lu Deng and Sanders.Even American reporters only care about the first round of the No. 1 pick.The others really have no selling point.

"Lu Deng, I heard that when you were training, your hit rate exceeded [-]%. Is it true?"

"Don't look at the comments on the Internet, how can they be so accurate, I'm just a primary school student who just joined the league, and I'm here to learn."

A reporter from a local Indiana media took advantage of the situation and asked: "Lu Deng, someone compares you with many great shooters in history, saying that you are the number one marksman in history!"

"This is trying to suck me to death! Whoever blows me up like that is really unkind!" Lu Deng joked with a smile, "I said it all, I'm just a primary school student, I haven't done anything yet, how dare I talk to those ancient sages? Compared with the sages? Miller in Indiana is the marksman! 'Miller moment' is one of the greatest moments in nba history, Miller is my role model, he is the hero of this city.

"There is also Mr. Larry Bird, the general manager of the Pacers. His status in the NBA is like the existence of Taishan Beidou. It is not an exaggeration to erect a statue on President Hill. I also respect him very much. hero.

"By the way, there is also Paul George who was injured in the national team some time ago. He is the hero of this city and the United States. I wish him a speedy recovery and return to the game. In short, the Pacers are a city of heroes .However, there is a Mr. Metta Shiping who fought in the upper palace of Auburn, he can't be counted, although he fights very well!"

There was a burst of laughter at the press conference.

Hearing what Luden said, even Indiana Pacers head coach Frank Vogel gave a thumbs up, humility, humor, respect for opponents, respect for seniors, question and answer ten, interspersed with ridicule, Lu Deng has Yao Ming's demeanor at the beginning.

Young people are awesome, unlike some basketball players who seem to have proved themselves by entering the league, their pockets are bulging, their eyes grow on their foreheads, and their mouths are loose. The sky is the boss and he is the second child.

Sanders was happier.He bought Lu Deng from the Cavaliers, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him, just like looking at his newborn son, his eyes were full of kindness.

At the press conference, Lu Deng answered more than ten questions in a row, and asked another question. He stopped answering, waved his hand and said:
"I won't answer. Four people came to hold a press conference. You can't always stare at me and ask questions alone. You want to exhaust me. And I'm afraid that if I have to answer any more questions, my English will be exposed.

"Actually, my English is very poor. When I went out to take a taxi in the morning, a bearded taxi driver took me halfway around Indiana, and finally took me to a place that only takes 5 minutes to walk. He charged me 150 dollars, and he also called To show off to his friends, 'My buddy hired a foreigner today, and that guy can't speak English, and he doesn't know the way, and he cheated a lot of money'."

Another burst of laughter.

"What happened later?" The reporters asked, not knowing whether Lu Deng was joking or telling the truth.

Lu Deng smiled and said: "Later, he was called by the traffic police to drink tea. Well, well, I really can't say more, it's the first time I came to Indiana, I said so much this time, next time What should I do if you scold me for playing big names if I don’t talk much? Or if you want to talk more but you don’t ask, am I very disappointed?
"The last thing, I brought a small gift to the injured Paul George, wishing him a speedy recovery. But I asked just now, Paul didn't come to the arena, please Mr. Frank to pass it on?"

As Luden said, he bent down and took out a canvas bag under the table, and took out a plush toy of "Kung Fu Panda" Po, with a note sewn on it: "Paul, come back quickly, or I will Beat up your brother on the field."

Lu Deng handed over the panda to Frank Vogel.

A large group of reporters came up to take pictures and film, and they all saw the sentence on the note.

"A really heartfelt blessing."

"Lu Deng is really caring." It is rare for a rookie to have such delicate expressions and blessings.Everyone was full of praise for Luden.

It's just that this is the pre-match press conference. Shouldn't the pre-match press conference be tense?Lu Deng insisted on turning a pre-match press conference into a diplomatic event.

Soon, Paul George's blessings from Lu Deng's pre-match press conference spread on the Internet.

Lu Deng's new Twitter account opened for a week originally had more than 70 fans, and most of them were Chinese fans.

The operation team uploaded pictures of the press conference, and the comments from American netizens exceeded 5+ in two hours, and the forwarding exceeded 1+.

Within a day, the number of fans grew to more than 170 million, and at least 70 fans were local fans in the United States.Especially in Indiana, the circle of fans is exploding, and Lu Deng has gained countless fans.

No wonder, you see, Lu Deng praised Indiana, Miller Moment, City of Heroes, President Hill, how much care about Indiana's urban feelings?

Paul George added Luden as a friend, posted the Kung Fu Panda sent by Luden, and added a sentence: "Thank you my Chinese brother."

A large group of big Vs of the Pacers and good friends of George NBA forwarded comments.Luis Scola's comment: "The No. [-] pick reminds me of Yao."

However, most of the other Pacers players commented: "Paul, don't worry, you are not here, we will beat him for you!"

It is obviously a battle to defend the honor of the city, but it is more like an interactive show of love.

This is so weird!
Before the game officially started, Lu Deng checked the miracle system.Miracle mm is right, increasing fans can really increase [basketball factor].It was 450 points at first, but it didn't take long, and it increased by more than 25 points and became 475 points.

Just, when will the reward be cashed out!

After accumulating so many basketball factors, what treasures can be rewarded?

Nezha's mother was pregnant for three and a half years and gave birth to Nezha. The system "difficult to deliver", can she also "give birth" to a super baby?
