Billups's actions were also discovered by Lamar, who knew that his old comrade-in-arms was an extremely sullen person. What Billups was thinking in his heart now, Lamar, who had been his teammate for more than three years, knew it! So Lamar looked at Billups with a playful look and a smile.

Seeing that Lamar did not speak, Billups quickly said again: Lamar, do you disagree with my opinion? Look at the way they look at us, they are on a pilgrimage!"

"Chaunsey, you should get a girlfriend!"

"What?"

"Hehe! They worship us because we are strong in their eyes, and if we are not as good as them, I am afraid that now they will be even more disgusting than those Koreans!"

Billups shrugged, he clearly didn't quite agree with Lamar's point. It's just that seeing that his long-time friend doesn't treat the Japanese very well, he can't refute Lamar's face, so Billups chooses to keep his mouth shut obediently.

The morning training session was over after only three hours, with head coach Van Gundy taking the rest of the players back to the hotel. General managers Darrell Morey and Lamar were on their way to a pre-match press conference held by the Japanese government.

When I arrived at the venue, it was already crowded with media from all over Japan and foreign countries. The head coach of the Japanese national team, Mitsuyoshi Anzai, and the captain Masashi Kawada have been waiting for a long time, and after a brief chat between the two sides, the host announced the official start of the press conference.

An American journalist was the first to stand up, and his eyebrows furrowed just by looking at the logo on his chest. Because this is not a sports media reporter at all, it seems to be a reporter for a well-known current affairs magazine.

Lamar had always been averse to politics, and when he stood up, he knew what he was going to ask: "If you want to know why I did that when I was in Korea, please sit down! I don't want to talk about that now!"

"If you have to know, I can only tell you, I don't like those people, it's just such a list, there is no other reason!"

The reporter seemed to be a little cramped by Lamar's words, but sitting down like this would not be in keeping with his status as an authoritative media reporter. But under Lamar's murderous gaze, he found that his courage to not give up until he reached his goal was passing quickly, and finally he gave up on continuing to ask.

"Lamar, is this your first time in Japan?" A Japanese reporter found an opportunity to ask a question and stood up excitedly: "What is your first impression of Japan?"

After asking, the Japanese reporter looked at Lamar expectantly, hoping to hear the highest evaluation of Japan from Lamar's mouth.

Lamar hesitated for a moment, and he didn't know what to say! There seemed to be no reason to say no, after all, the Japanese side had shown themselves well all day today. But to say okay, but what Japan did in the later generations made Lamar feel very uncomfortable.

Lamar thought for a moment before speaking: "It's a nice environment and the fans are welcoming. This was the first time I experienced Japanese culture when I came to Japan to promote the project, but I was surprised by something unhappy in Korea, so I had a good impression of Japan. After thinking about it for a while, Lamar still felt that he was telling the truth, and he did not deny everything he was experiencing now because of those things in the afterlife. ad_250_left();

In response to Lamar's factual answer, the Japanese reporters present were satisfied but also a little disappointed, knowing that Lamar not only went to South Korea but also went to China before coming to Japan. Now Lamar only compares South Korea, which clearly shows that China has also made a good impression on him.

Immediately afterwards, another Japanese reporter stood up: "Lamar, this time the Knicks' trip to Asia, the Knicks defeated the Shandong Shanghai Oriental Sharks and the South Korean national team by a big score, what is your evaluation of the next opponent - the Japanese national men's basketball team?"

"To be honest, I didn't have anything to say before I played against the Japanese national team! I wasn't familiar with Japanese basketball before today, and if you had to tell me, I could only say that Japanese basketball still has a long way to go before it reaches a world-class level! It's not a smooth road, and it's full of thorns. ”

"And Japan has to move forward one step at a time, and before moving on to American basketball, you'd better learn a little bit about your neighbor China. Their strength is definitely the highest level in Asia, and they can also rank among the top 10 in the world. Now the Knicks have Wang Zhizhi, one of China's golden generation players and one of the best basketball players in China. Tonight's game, I think you should pay more attention to him!"

At this time, another reporter stood up: "May I ask which of the three countries on the Knicks' trip to Asia impressed you the most?"

"Can I only choose one?" Lamar was stunned for a moment, but then understood what the other party meant: "I'm sorry! If I had to choose one country, then I would choose South Korea!" "Didn't the Knicks and the Korean Basketball Association have a very unpleasant quarrel? Why did you choose it?" the reporter said again.

Lamar stood up and said a little seriously: "It's because it's unpleasant, or a little disturbing, that we are deeply impressed by the country of South Korea!"

It seemed that he remembered his days in South Korea, Lamar felt a little uncomfortable, and after saying that, Lamar said hello and left the table directly.

Darrell Morey, who was left alone by Lamar to face reporters, smiled helplessly, it was obviously not the first time he had encountered such a situation, and she also knew Lamar's temper.

The press conference, which had been going well, became a bit anticlimactic because of this reporter's question. The reporter apparently had little interest in Knicks general manager Darrell Morey, who was still in his seat, so the press conference started to get a little cold shortly after Lamar left.

Lamar who came out of the press conference was obviously still in a bad mood, to be honest, the past few days in South Korea really made Lamar disgusting, and until now I think about Lamar is angry. Never since his rebirth has Lamar been so blatantly bullied on the pitch.

After the press conference, Darrell Morey found Lamar, who was relaxing on the top of the stadium, and said with a little embarrassment: "Lamar, I ask you if you can think about it a little next time you speak! Your words today will definitely become the front page of many newspapers tomorrow, and then our relations with the South Korean side will be even more stiff." ”

Lamar looked at Darrell Morey, walked over and patted the latter on the shoulder: "Okay, Darrell, I'm a little impulsive! But don't you think the Koreans are really going too far?

"To be honest, I don't like South Korea as a country either! but you're just a player after all, and a lot of times you have to think about the situation of the team. ”

"Even so, I can't say I like Korea with my conscience, right? Thinking about what happened in South Korea these days, I panicked!"

Looking at Lamar's face, Darrell Morey knew that the donkey was starting to get sick again.

"What do you want to do after all this is over?"

"I hope the Koreans are self-aware that their big hippo won't be on the NBA court. When the time comes, I'll make that stupid big guy see basketball and have a shadow in his heart!"

The stadium was crowded with people at the evening, and almost 20,000 people came to watch the friendly match between the Knicks and the Japanese national team. Although the press conference ended unhappily, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the Japanese people to watch basketball.

When Lamar walked into the stadium, the whole scene was immediately ignited by the cheers of the people, and the loud cheers made the sound of the DJ on the scene be suppressed. If it weren't for the bright black hair and yellow skin of the fans, one would definitely think that the upcoming NBA playoffs would not be a friendly exchange game of only 30 minutes.

The opening ceremony began with a cabaret performance, and after the Japanese entertainer Hikaru Utada, who openly professed his love for Lamar, jumped and sang a Japanese song on the court, the match officially began.

Although Damport's athletic talent is only considered mid-to-upper in the NBA, it is definitely against the sky in Asia, especially in Japan. The Haitian guaranteed the Knicks absolute possession, jumping a head higher than the Japanese center when he scramble, and then easily flicked the ball into Lamar's arms.

Lamar didn't rush to attack, but put the ball in the hands of Billups and motioned for the latter to stabilize the attacking tempo.

Billups nodded, slowly dribbling forward. By the time we crossed the halfway line, the other players had started to run under Billups' direction.

Today, the Knicks still sent Wang Zhizhi at the big forward position, while Lamar appeared at the small forward position, which was somewhat unexpected. It seems that Van Gundy is ready to use Lamar as an all-round fighter.

Lamar leaned on the Japanese small forward and reached for the ball, and Billups immediately passed the ball to Lamar's hand with a high hang. Seeing Lamar holding the ball, the opposing Japanese small forward began to get nervous, jumping and jumping in front of Lamar like a monkey.

But Lamar, as if he hadn't seen the man at all, forced his short body past him. Seeing this, the opponent's internal cripple player immediately pounced and tried to stop Lamar.

At this moment, Lamar suddenly pressed his hand down, and the basketball was thrown by him seemingly casually, but in fact it went directly between the legs of the post player. After the basketball bounced on the ground, it came to Wang Zhizhi's hand precisely.

"Bang!" Such an unguarded opportunity, of course, Wang Zhizhi will not miss it.

Wang Zhizhi directly smashed the ball with both hands.

"Well done!" Lamar stretched out his hand and patted Wang Zhizhi.

"Guys, should we give our new teammates a welcome gift tonight? Why don't we use Wang Zhizhi as the core tonight and pass all the balls to him to attack?"

"Good idea, King, I'll get the ball in your hands!" Dampot, the heartless fellow, took the lead in answering Lamar's call.
