Chapter 452: He's Really Running for the Score Championship! (Fourth Update!) )
After the game, on the Spurs' side, Popovich attended a press conference with Leonard and Ginobili.
Although Leonard was beaten by Davis twice, he scored 20 points and is still the Spurs' top scorer.
However, the atmosphere of the press conference was a bit dreary.
After all, it is not a very pleasant thing for a player to be let go by his own team.
"We've had a great team, they've done a great job, it's me who has a problem with the set-up and we shouldn't have lost that last rebound."
Popovich knew that losing the game would be a big blow to the team's morale, and took the initiative to take the blame on himself at the press conference.
This is his character, he can be skinned when he wants skin, and he is still serious when he should be serious.
"Don scored 41 points and finished the team out, is there anything you want to say?"
The reporter then asked.
But Popovich was expressionless and didn't say anything.
The reporter thought that Popovich did not understand, and then asked again.
"What do you think I can say?"
Popovich replied coldly.
His attitude is already very obvious, and this is standard no Fxck to say.
If it weren't for the fact that GDP was still with the Spurs, he might have really wanted to fall out with Holt.
It was obvious that he and Buford were helping to take the blame, and they were still angry at him and the team in the midfield.
The press conference on the Spurs' side was in a bad mood, but the Pelicans' press conference was quietly the opposite.
Winning the Spurs Pelicans was quite a morale-boosting battle.
"He led us to victory."
Gordon used a very apt description, he had 15 points and three assists in this game.
This sentence came out of his mouth, indicating that he had recognized Tang Tian's core position on the Pelicans.
"It was a great fight and Don played the best game of his career so far, but I'm sure he's going to get even better in the future."
Williams also showed off his eloquence in front of the media.
But in the midst of harmony, there are always reporters who like to stir up trouble.
Towards the end of the press conference, a question from a female reporter from FOX Sports made the atmosphere a little tense.
"We know that T-Mac did a miracle of 35.13 seconds, but a lot of people say that it took his whole career luck and caused him to not perform as well as expected, what do you think of your performance tonight when you hit four consecutive threes and hit the game?"
When the reporter asked this, Williams on the stage really wanted to kick him out.
It's like a pot of porridge with a mouse poop suddenly appearing in it.
The other reporters all looked at Tang Tian in unison, they were worried that this young player would not be able to cope with this kind of problem.
Tang Tian glanced at the reporter, he was not annoyed by this question that was a bit like a curse, but spoke very calmly.
"Except for the final shot, the previous three three-pointers I got rid of the defense, all of them were chance shots, and I don't think it would take a whole career of luck to hit a difficult shot, and if that were the case, Kobe Bryant would have retired long ago."
As soon as Tang Tian's words fell, a whole round of applause immediately rang out at the scene.
That's a really wise answer, and there's nothing wrong with it.
This is tantamount to overturning the question itself raised by the reporter.
And there is no problem with Tang Tian's example.
In terms of lore shots alone, Kobe Bryant is certainly one of them, and he is more than Jordan with 26 times, the most in NBA history.
Even Kobe Bryant will not be angry when he hears it, but will be happy, because this is blowing him in a change of direction.
After the press conference, Tang Tian returned to the locker room, and his teammates had not left yet.
Seeing that Tang Tian was back, there was a burst of cheers and screams in the locker room.
Tang Tian shot 14 of 26 in this game, 6 of 10 three-pointers, and 7 of 8 free throws, and efficiently cut 41 points, 2 boards, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, which was the absolute hero of the team's victory.
Tang Tian followed Williams to the press conference after the game before, and they didn't have time to celebrate.
Ci Shiping even started impromptu rap at this time.
"We're all Avengers tonight, you're Thor and I'm Hulk, there's one less Black Widow, the Black Widow Durant wants......"
Tang Tian was almost defeated by Ci Shiping's rap.
However, his teammates were very integrated into Ci Shiping's rhythm, and Tang Tian also got up and hid together.
"There's one less Black Widow, a Black Widow who Durant wants to drink the bath water."
……
The Pelicans players were in the locker room, and the fans on social media were in high spirits.
"Only Tang Tian can guard against Tang Tian, but unfortunately he is no longer in the Spurs."
"I heard that Holt was stunned and sent to the hospital, and I don't know if it's real or fake."
"I don't think so, although the player who let go of himself scored more than 40 points on his team's head, which is quite something."
"I think even if it's true, it's understandable, after all, this team is called Spurs, and I can't forget who the last player who cut 40+ on top of Spurs' head was."
"I think maybe Buford is not far from being fired, and his boss is angry and goes to the hospital."
"Haha, I'm actually convinced of this operation, I think it's more amazing than when the Hornets traded Kobe Bryant and the Raptors let Maddie go, after all, even if it was a poison contract, the annual salary in the first two years was only 5 million."
"If you don't say it, I don't even realize it, he only needs 5 million this season!"
"The 5 million scoring champion?"
"It's hard to score the top score, right? How many points per game is he averaging now? Has anyone checked it. ”
"He averaged 27.8 points, 2.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.8 steals, 2.1 blocks per game, shooting 47.5 percent from the field and 43.6 percent from three-point range."
"It's already 28 points?! It's really not impossible to look at it this way! ”
"yes, his crazy scoring can help the team win, and there's no reason why the Pelicans can't let him continue to do that."
"Haha, the 5 million scoring champion! Brothers! My big waterfowl fans are waking up laughing! ”
"Davis: So he didn't come to help me? TXTX~”
"The scoring title is Kevin Durant's." Statements from fans of The Godfather.
"This is Durant Trumpet? Tsk, speaking of which, the scoring champion has always been synonymous with Durant in recent years, he was robbed by Anthony last year, and if he is robbed by Don again this year......"
"That must be a very cool thing, haha!"
……
After a night in the hospital, Holt went home to recuperate.
He's just angry, and there's nothing big about it.
After resting for two days, his whole body was almost recovered, and when he was resting in the living room downstairs, an uninvited guest came.
The general manager of the team, RC Buford.
In the past, Buford had always come to him with Popovich, but this time it seemed a little strange to come alone.
But the first words that Buford said made him understand what he meant.
"I want to resign."
After listening to this, Holt felt that the world was spinning again.
ps: Some people have been struggling with the difference between dry pulls and jump shots, you go back and turn chapter 366 yourself! My chapter on popular science is clear!
PS: Thank you for the 10,000 reward of Raptors God 1!!
