Chapter 122: Where's Your Girlfriend?
Bang!
Ben Gordon missed a three-point jumper, and his big heart had already been pierced by Zhou Zheng. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After the first-grade serve, the second-grade team stopped fouling and let them consume the last two seconds.
Drip!!
The game is over.
The rookie won, breaking the three-year iron rule that only sophomores could win.
The poor Class of 2004 lost last year to the Super Platinums led by LeBron James, and this year lost to the point guard led by Zhou Zheng.
"Alright, audience friends. The Houston 2006 All-Star Weekend Rookie Challenge is over, and I know you're just as much as I am, but... At least next year we'll be able to see another perfect performance by the big three. When they're on the same pitch, I swear it's the best exhibition game I've ever seen!"
"I'm already worried about Sunday night's race, it's too hard for them to get past it in terms of spectacle. β
When Drexler was making his final remarks about the game, T-NT's reporters approached Zhou Zheng, and his instinct told him that tonight's MVP would be Zhou Zheng. With 12 points and 11 assists, he was not a team-high in either stat, but no one could ignore his comeback performance in the final moments...... He stabbed the sophomore with a key defense and a 3+1.
"Tiger, everyone is talking about your collaboration with Chris and Delon right now. You took a 14-point lead in less than six minutes and held the lead until the end, did you practice your tactics before the game?"
"Nope. Zhou Zheng said honestly: "I just went with Chris to plant some trees, and this is our only cooperation." We're all very busy, the NBA has a lot of work for us, and there are a lot of events for the sponsors. β
'It's only when we're playing that we're relaxed. This ease directed our performance, and everything happened naturally. β
Zhou Zheng's confession has a different kind of humor. The reporter smiled and then asked: "At the last moment, you shuttled half the court under heavy surrounding, making it impossible for the opponent's foul to start, and the commentator Drexler called you Mr. Ball Possession." What do you think of this nickname?"
"Hmm. Zhou Zheng nodded: "Not bad." β
"In the end, you hit the game-winning three-pointer, do you think that magic shot was luck?"
"I think luck is part of strength. β
"At the end of the game, you sat down at the tech table and said something to Ben Gordon, can I know what you said?"
"No, you can't. Zhou Zheng shook his head: "That's part of the game." Now the game is over. β
Zhou Zhengjing is clear, he doesn't like to provoke a war of words.
One yard to one yard, and the things in the arena are left in the arena.
At the end of the visit, Zhou Zheng returned to the bench.
After a while, David Stern came to the center of the field with a professional smile on his face, and then praised the rookie in his characteristic voice, which was nothing more than those spatter words like you are all the future of the league.
He then announced the highlight of the game...... Attribution of MVP.
"The player who won the MVP of the 2006 NBA Rookie Challenge was... Chris Paul, Zhou Zheng !!"
David Stern visibly paused as he read Chris Paul's name, and then he heard the crowd booing and he quickly said the next name.
The boos stopped.
Then, everyone began to ...... It's a double yolk tonight.
But after thinking about it, I think it's reasonable.
Chris Paul scored 14 points and 9 assists in the game, which complemented Zhou Zheng's 12 points and 11 assists, and there is no big doubt that the two won the award at the same time.
It's just that the two brothers at the University of Illinois were a little frustrated, and Rutherhead scored 18 points and was still the host, but they missed out on the MVP. And Deron Williams is one of the three point guards who launched a gorgeous counterattack with Zhou Zheng Paul, and the other two were taken, leaving only one of him.
Their loss is palpable.
However, the league can't give away ten MVP trophies, so there's always someone who wants to be disappointed.
Zhou Zheng lifted the MVP trophy with Chris Paul. Then they were interviewed together.
The interview was boring, and basically Chow gave all the opportunities to answer questions to Chris, and let him act as the official spokesperson.
But in the end, the reporter asked a question that Zhou Zheng couldn't shirk.
"Tiger, Tony Parker brought his Hollywood fiancΓ©e to All-Star Weekend. Where's your girlfriend? Will she come?"
As soon as this question was raised, Zhou Zheng couldn't help but look a little lost.
Megan is still working.
She is always at work on important days.
"It's the rise of her career, and I can't affect her because of what I'm doing. Zhou Zheng replied with a smile.
"So, how do you adapt to this kind of day when there is less gathering and more separation?" the reporter keenly observed Zhou Zheng's emotions, and she continued to ask.
"Love. Zhou Zheng replied in a very general word.
Then, the round-table visit was concluded.
After the visit, Lin Wanwan walked over and led Zhou Zheng to the next room, he still had a lot of work to do, from Thursday to Sunday, there was almost no time to rest, he had to work tirelessly like a clockwork robot.
"We had a good game tonight. All the sponsors sent me congratulatory texts, they hope you can win the slam dunk title tomorrow, and preferably the day after tomorrow to snatch the MVP trophy from those all-star players, everyone is expecting you to fly higher..."
When Lin Wanwan said this, Zhou Zheng had already leaned back in his chair and fell asleep. The makeup artist sat on his face with simple touch-ups to make him look more energetic.
Lin Wanwan sighed and took a down jacket from the side to cover him...... It's still cold in Houston in February.
Then, she quietly walked out.
"Shoot again in thirty minutes. Lin Wanwan in the aisle spoke forcefully into the phone in the cold wind: "I can only give you twenty minutes to shoot...... It's not our problem, you should have done everything beforehand, and we don't have time to waste on unprofessional staff. β
About forty minutes later, Lin Wanwan walked in, and she woke up Zhou Zheng with an indifferent expression: "Hey, it's time to start." β
Zhou Zheng rubbed his eyes, put the down jacket aside, and said a little angrily: "Can't you let me sleep more?"
"If you hadn't put $5 million into that tech company called Facebook last month, you could sleep as long as you want in bed now. Lin Wanwan's tone was very indifferent: "Before you speak, you have to evaluate your economic strength." β
As soon as Zhou Zheng heard this, he immediately lost his confidence.
With a furrowed mouth, he rolled his eyes at Lin Wanwan's back, and then followed her out.
Although Zhou Zheng swore that he would fire Lin Wanwan within a month, but now two months have passed, Lin Wanwan is still here, and she is the closest person to him in the world.
