NBA bench saves national team

Lakers interview room.

Qin Feng, Kobe and others sat side by side.

The reporters crowded under the interview booth, looking forward to it.

At a glance, there were nearly a hundred reporters, and the scene was very spectacular.

During this important Christmas, you also cannot be with your family, but have to come to work and work overtime.

After finishing the interview, I have to go back overnight to write the manuscript...

"Qin! The first player in his career returned to the Ford Center as an opponent, how do you feel?"

a reporter asked.

"It feels very special! Although I have left here, everything is so familiar, and I have a close feeling of coming home."

Qin Feng smiled and said, also sighing with emotion.

He used to live in the city when he was with the Thunder and would play a game every few days at the Ford Center.

Now that he has left the Thunder, he no longer lives in this city, and he only comes here twice a year, which feels familiar yet strange.

Fortunately, the Thunder team is now my familiar friends, otherwise when I come again, I will really feel that things are different!

"Tonight, the fans at the scene did not boo, but cheered and shouted at you. How do you feel?"

a reporter asked.

"Lucky! I didn't get booed! It shows that I still have a lot of fans in this city!"

"I am very grateful to everyone, and I am grateful to everyone! It can be said that at the beginning of my career, the fans here gave me support and motivation, allowing me to accomplish many great achievements."

Qin Feng said seriously, his voice was deep and contagious.

It feels good to go both ways.

If you are booed by the fans like James back in Cleveland, you will definitely feel bad.  …

"Qin, this game can be described as a soaring point battle. What do you think of the performance of Durant and Westbrook?"

a reporter asked.

"Obviously, they've grown again and become one of the top stars in the league, and I'm looking forward to seeing them grow."

Qin Feng grinned and said.

You could tell he was in a really good mood, always smiling.

"Going further?"

"Let us meet in the Western Conference Finals! I will destroy their basketball dreams with my own hands."

Qin Feng's smile suddenly turned cold, and his body was even more murderous.

The reporters were stunned and couldn't help but start to look forward to it.

If the Thunder really make it to the Western Conference Finals and meet the Lakers, then this script is really interesting!

In this way, Qin Feng will kill his old master again...

Then, the reporters asked Kobe a few more questions, and the interview ended.

Thunder team interview room.

"Durant, you scored 41 points in this game, what do you think of your performance?"

a reporter asked.

"If you don't win the game, no matter how high your score is, it's useless! Besides, my 41 points are not the highest score in the game, and I'm only ranked No.2."

Durant said a little depressed, not happy because of his data at all.

Second child, second child!

Why are you always second?

He was the second overall pick in the draft. After only one season as the core of the Thunder, he became the team's second leader. Now he finally became the team's leader, but the team's record can only be ranked second in the Western Conference. .....

What's even more tragic is that when Qin Feng was at the shooting guard position last season, Durant was also known as the second small forward in the league.

Now that Qin Feng has switched to playing small forward in the new season, Durant has become the third small forward in the league.

This is such a proper dimensionality reduction blow!

"Then what do you think of Qin Feng's performance? What do you think is the biggest reason for the team's loss?"

a reporter asked.

"Qin Feng's performance is as stable as ever. Although he got a super triple-double of 50+ points, I want to say that this is just Qin Feng's routine operation."

"As for the reason we lost... of course it's because the Lakers have Qin Feng!"

"Without Qin Feng, I believe the Thunder would have easily won the Lakers."

Durant said that he was full of confidence when he spoke the last two sentences.

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help curling his lips again, revealing a trace of self-mockery.

If there is no Qin Feng...

Obviously there is no such if.

Qin Feng is with the Lakers.

This is the fact.

"Westbrook, you were blocked twice by Qin Feng in this game, how do you feel about it?"

a reporter asked.

"This is a very bad thing. If it weren't for Qin Feng, I might play a response ball on the court to show it."

"But I have a deep friendship with Qin Feng, so forget it."

Westbrook tilted his head, thought for a while and said.

"But you really wanted to block Qin Feng during a chase! It's just a pity that neither the jumping ability nor the ability to hang in the air can match Qin Feng."

A reporter said.

After hearing this, Westbrook's face sank immediately.

These reporters really don't give any face to them!

"I know, but I want to say that it was just an accident. I just chased and defended subconsciously during that attack and defense, but obviously I couldn't stop Qin Feng."

Westbrook shook his head and said, a little depressed, it doesn't feel good to be exposed.

The reporters couldn't help laughing, and it was rare to tease Westbrook once.

......

The post-match interview is over.

The Thunder players couldn't wait to drive their luxury cars home for Christmas.

The Lakers have to catch a plane and fly back to Los Angeles overnight before they can meet their families.

In my impression, the Lakers seldom play Christmas games away, usually at home. After all, the city where the Lakers are located is the entertainment capital of Quanmi.

That's because Qin Feng's battle to go home was too much of a gimmick.

Only Qin Feng's level of fame and influence made the Lakers be arranged to play the Christmas game away.

It is the staff who serve the team that work harder than the Lakers players.

They will first pack the players' playing equipment and luggage, then go to the hotel to check out, and then go to the airport to meet the players.

After returning to Los Angeles, the players can go home directly, but these staff have to work overtime to send the luggage back.

At the same time, the video analyst needs to watch the Christmas game tonight, analyze the game, and then write a post-match analysis report to the coaching staff.

That's when all the work is done.

Every year, the Lakers spend nearly 500 million dollars to play away games, which translates to more than 10 dollars in travel expenses for a game.

In addition to the players, there is also a very behind-the-scenes working team to ensure that all the problems of the players, and even which pair of sneakers the players will wear at night, are prepared by these staff.

The purpose of this is also to allow players to concentrate all their energies on the game instead of being distracted by these complicated chores.

This is called professionalism!
