Chapter 122: Press Conference

The Indiana Pacers' home press conference room was crowded with reporters, many of them were chasing Bilfitch to Indiana, but before the game, after just being released by Bilfitch with a big news, before he had time to leave, the Los Angeles Clippers were immediately in the game, and sent another bomb, and now these journalists are almost about to fall in love with the Los Angeles Clippers, what a friend of the news! Knowing that they run the news hard, they often create hot spots for them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Larry Bird came to the press room after the game, and now he wants to know what the Los Angeles Clippers are doing.

Soon, Billfitch appeared at the door of the press room, this time he didn't come alone, Tiger Washington followed Bill Fitch to the scene of the post-game press conference, some things, he had to explain himself.

When the reporters saw Tiger Washington appearing at the press conference, they were not calm immediately, and many people looked at the host excitedly and urged him with their eyes to start the press conference quickly.

Bill Fitch took Tiger to the stage of the press conference, shook hands with Larry Bird, sat in his place, and the staff who presided over the press conference did not disappoint everyone, and immediately announced the start of the press conference.

The reporters in the audience raised their hands high and fought for the opportunity to ask questions, and the host of the press conference, a staff member from the Indiana Pacers, gave the first opportunity to ask questions to a local media outlet of the Indiana Pacers.

"May I ask Mr. Bill Fish, why did you replace Tiger Washington in the fourth quarter of this game, don't you want him to break the league record and become a legend in this game?"

"Mr. reporter, these are two questions, you have violated the law, but I guess all of you are curious about these two questions, so I will give you this opportunity, as for your question, let Tiger himself answer you." After making a joke with the reporter, Bill Fitch handed the question to Tiger.

"I'm here to say 'I'm sorry!' to all my fans. I let you down, and then I want to thank Coach Larry Bird, you are a respectable basketball guy, so you withstood the pressure and made an unexpected decision in the game that gave me a chance to set a record. However, this is not an excuse that I don't know how to be grateful, I can't do anything without the support of my teammates, I admit that before the start of this game, I participated in the game with emotions, because of some remarks, now the whole country is criticizing my coach, Coach Bill Feich, we were surrounded outside the court before the game, which made my mentality problematic, so I wanted to vent my anger in the game, played very aggressively, and achieved a high individual score, but this is not basketball, Basketball is a team sport, I use my selfishness, cover up the efforts of my teammates, I am a wrong example today, basketball is not like me, I hope that the children who start their own basketball dreams, don't learn my way of playing, trust their partners, as for the fourth quarter of the game, it is my own request to get off the court. ”

"I made this decision when I knew my score, and the difference between the two sides, and my teammates and coaches disagreed with it at the time, and in the end it was I who insisted that they were convinced by me, and I knew that maybe I stayed on the court and there would be a very nice scoring stat, maybe I would be the second Michael Jordan, maybe a lot, but I couldn't do that, it wasn't fair to my teammates, and at the same time I, as a public figure, couldn't give the kids a bad example, Here I want you to take my words to the whole country, basketball is a five-person sport, it is a team sport, no one can be on the team, even if you are a superstar, the same sentence is given to Kobe Bryant, I hope he can mature soon. ”

After Tiger finished speaking, he pushed the microphone and sat back, indicating that he had finished, and many reporters on the scene nodded and began to raise their hands again to fight for the next right to speak, and the second chance, the staff of the Indiana Pacers, gave a local reporter in Los Angeles.

"Mr. Tiger Washington, I was very touched by what you just said, but don't you think that these words have a great hypocrisy component? You must know that no one is a saint and has his own selfish desires. ”

"You're right, everyone has their own selfish desires, there's nothing wrong with that, if I were like you, maybe I wouldn't have chosen to play today, but I'm not, I know that as long as I want to, I can score more points, as long as I think, my teammates will continue to selflessly support me to achieve higher honors, it is their selflessness that taught me what basketball is, that's why the Clippers will achieve where they are now, it's my honor to be their teammate, and you haven't played basketball, you don't understand what real basketball is, I don't know what a team is, that's why you have such an idea, it's not wrong for you, I finally send you a Chinese saying: there is a Buddha in the heart, everything is a Buddha, there is a demon in the heart, everything is a demon. Not seeing good things is the reason for your own heart, please don't judge others by your values. ”

A lot of media in Los Angeles are supporting the Los Angeles Lakers, after Kobe Bryant's speech, he rushed to the front line to accuse Bill Fish's main force, Tiger has been unbearable for a long time to these local media people in Los Angeles, the one who asked the question happened to hit the muzzle of the gun, and was directly ridiculed by Tiger in person, many reporters at the scene looked at the Los Angeles reporter, and they all tried to hold back their laughter, and began to raise their hands, ready to ask questions.

"Coach Larry Bird, what do you think of Tiger Washington's decision in this game? Under what circumstances did you decide to play the game in the fourth quarter, did you want to complete Tiger Washington's scoring record? The third reporter who was called asked a question to Larry Bird.

"Before I made a decision, I struggled for a long time, you know, if Tiger scores 100 points in this game, even if it exceeds his own record of 83 points, it will make the Pacers a laughing stock in history, but I used to be a player, I am a basketball lover, I can't erase a legend with my own hands, I can't bring regrets to everyone because of selfish desires, when I made a difficult decision, I heard the applause of the fans in the field, I was very happy at the time, I knew I did the right thing, I know the Indiana fans, supported my decision, they are the cutest group of people, as for Tiger's decision, to be honest, I was surprised and didn't understand it at the time, but I just listened to Tiger's answer, I think he was right, and the most important thing for us as public figures is to be a good role model.
