Chapter 272: Young Man, Do You Crave Power? (2/3)

On one side is the Lakers' Paul Gasol's 26 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, and on the other side is his own Mark Gasol's 7 points and 4 rebounds...... Jafaroni thought to himself that this reporter would really be looking for a topic......

"Pau Gasol's time in the NBA is not short. And then there's the fact that it's a pre-season game. So it's not telling how many points the players score," Jafaroni was more proud at this point. He felt that it was time to give credit to his wit ~Where is the applause~

"Then what do you think of Zhou Yang's 16 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists in this game?" At this time, the new coach of the Grizzlies discovered the "problem trap" of reporters......

"......" Jafaroni didn't know how to answer for a moment. Yes, in the same team, Mark played more than 5 minutes more than Zhou Yang. So how do you interpret such data?

"Uh...... That one...... Gasol is still young. I know! Zhou Yang is the same age as him...... But Zhou Yang has been playing basketball in the NBA for two years...... "I didn't really pay much attention to how D'Antoni answered reporters' questions when I was an assistant coach before. Now he felt like he was satirizing Mark. He didn't mean that!

"This microphone isn't too loud, isn't it?" Zhou Yang sat next to him at this time and suddenly said. The reporter's eyes immediately turned to the Asian striker who scored the second highest score in the game.

"Hey? Feed? It's on fire!! Well, this time the microphone is working. Where did I just go? Zhou Yang was there and cooperated with the staff to try the microphone there......

The reporters at the scene of the "......" were stunned. Is there such a microphone test?! Just now, when Zhou Yang suddenly shouted "It's on fire", a male reporter instinctively ran away, but was tripped by the big brother's machine next to him, and fell to the ground very sincerely......

Another thing that confuses reporters is what you just said, and you ask where you go?

"No one remembers where I just said...... Oh yes~ I didn't say anything just now haha...... I'm kidding you~" Zhou Yang laughed himself when he said this. It's so embarrassing~

"You're right!" A reporter immediately responded. Subsequently, the atmosphere at the scene also eased a little.

"Little brother, don't leave after the press conference, oh~ I want to say that you may have overlooked a little bit of this game. That's when the Heat got super center O'Neal. I think there were ups and downs in the regular season. What's more, it's a preseason game, not to mention that the opponent's O'Neill has been on the field? Me and Lowry, Conley and they play more time on the outside......"

Zhou Yang felt that it was time for him to come out and solve the siege. Although it was the first time he had listened to Fisher when he first came to the Grizzlies. But I also know that in a new environment, there will always be people around you who like you and people who hate you.

People who like you will support you, maybe you won't be able to see it for a while. But you can always feel it after a long time. Also, people who hate you will cause you trouble intentionally or unintentionally. Even encourage the people around you to agree with his point of view and start to reject you.

Zhou Yang didn't know how to face such a situation. But he had encountered many such things in his previous life. But in one team, his current contract has also been secured.

That means he'll stay with the Grizzlies until the end of the season. From the time he came here until the time he was on vacation, he had to spend time with his teammates. It seems that the words just now are starting to favor him.

Naturally, it is comfortable to listen to. But if this continues, it will inevitably exacerbate the estrangement between himself and Mark. So he has to come forward to relieve Gasol Jr. Whether it is for this reason or as his teammate, Zhou Yang feels that there is nothing wrong with doing this.

In the team, as long as the manager doesn't exclude himself and rarely gives himself playing time, that's fine. I have a certain amount of playing time, and it is okay to communicate with the manager smoothly off the field. Thinking that some time ago, I and Jafaroni encouraged each other~

Mark is in a bit of a low mood today. He did not attend today's press conference. Although the staff tried to let him participate, he was not retained. Gasol Jr. left the arena straight home.

Mime originally wanted to leave, but was dragged to the press conference by the staff......

"False! This guy is probably laughing at me in his heart! But I'm in opposition to O'Neill, this statement is ......," Mark watched Zhou Yang's speech in the news report on the TV, and turned off the TV not long after.

......

One of the problems that Zhou Yang is facing now is that his expectations after coming to the Grizzlies are not much in the first preseason game. 700 didn't arrive. The heat on Memphis' side really can't be compared with the Lakers.

Sports news is full of mobile phone screens reporting on how the Lakers' roster is tacit in the new season. Bryant didn't play, and they easily defeated the Charlotte Bobcats 108-69 at home!

Fans see that this season's Los Angeles Lakers are still terrifying! The former Lakers players who went to the Grizzlies did feel like they were abandoned. If Zhou Yang is still with the Lakers, it is estimated that he should be promoted to B level after playing more than 10 regular season games.

But now, when you play more than 40 games in the regular season, you can be promoted to the Grizzlies? Zhou Yang felt that he couldn't wait. If you are promoted to B level after playing for most of the season, it is estimated that the results you played at that time are probably also fixed in the head coach's mind, right?

......

There aren't a lot of games in preseason right now. After a few games, the Grizzlies' stats for these players also came out. Mark averaged 7.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game after the preseason! Conley averaged 5.7 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game! Mime 12.9 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists! Zhou Yang 13.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5 assists! Lowry 9.8 points, 1 rebound and 1.5 assists!

This data is publicly available within the team. Jafaroni is also hoping to spur the rest of the players on the side. Undoubtedly, Zhou Yang and Mime's data are still very good. Mark, as a player who has just entered the NBA, is not low.

"So the first lesson at Grizzlies is...... Do you crave power in a good year? After Zhou Yang finished training, he and Mime walked to a place where their teammates couldn't hear and started class.

"Teenager? Where is the boy? Mimu looked at Zhou Yang with some surprise and asked.

"Little brother, are you satisfied with your current annual salary of more than $7 million?" Zhou Yang deliberately made a gesture of taking the microphone at this time and said to him.

"Very satisfied. Zhou Yang, you know that I used to be only more than 3 million a year, I ......"

"If there was a chance that you could continue to get a raise, would you go for it?" Zhou Yang said to him mysteriously.

"For example~" Mime's eyes began to glow!

Several Grizzlies players at the scene were a little puzzled, what did the two of them say there? After the pre-season, the players of the team have already recognized Meme's ability! He has less playing time than Mark as a center forward, but all statistics are higher than Gasol Jr.'s!

Even his blocks, steal stats are better than Mark's! At this time, Mim was listening carefully to Zhou Yang's words over there...... It's so weird!

"What are they talking about there?" Finally, Miller couldn't help but ask Brown. As former Lakers players who came together, they should know.

"Zhou Yang is giving Mime a lesson. Don't you know...... Oh, you don't know. When he was on the Lakers, Meme began to listen to Zhou Yang's lessons," Kwame Brown said very calmly. And these players around him are not calm......

"I remember last season Rimime's personal ability began to rise suddenly and rapidly, when did Zhou Yang teach Mime?" Guy was also interested at this point, and he asked Brown bluntly.

"Just last season. That's how classes are conducted. He wouldn't let us hear it yet. There is a fee for the lessons. How much? It seems to be $50,000 a week. Isn't that Fisher? ”

"That's right! Meme is charged 50,000 for 1 week. Later, there was Vujasic, Famar, and their fees for classes were $10,000 per lesson," and when Xiao Yu said this, the players around him fell silent.

This lesson isn't cheap! Feelings: Mime's sudden sharp rise in stats last season was because Zhou Yang taught him lessons?!! Mark couldn't keep his mouth shut when he heard this. Is it so fantastic?!

I thought that the Lakers came to these 4 players, and Mime was the most powerful. Feelings Zhou Yang is his teacher!! No wonder Mime usually talks to Zhou Yang and has a different attitude from them!

......

"I registered a number. But I don't have any followers on Twitter."

"I follow you, retweet you some of your content~ How do I have more than 100,000 followers on Twitter now~ Tweet from the teacher, bless you to feel it~"

"I don't know much about new things, I watched Odom have a lot of fun in the hospital"

"Did you shoot threes before?"

"Hardly Vote"

"Did you work with your teammates a lot before?"

"Not much"

"Have you heard some of the new ways of playing and the more cutting-edge ideas I talked about in class before?"

"No...... Well, I'll try to tweet a little more......"

"Do you remember the $80,000 a week tuition?" Zhou Yang reminded Mime. I'm afraid he made a mistake after today. Give him $50,000.

"I'll give you this week's tuition when I get out. 80,000" Mime made an "OK" gesture after speaking~

Jafaroni immediately knew about Zhou Yang's class...... Ever since he came to the Grizzlies, he's felt like he's been busy. Busy getting acquainted with the team staff, the equipment in the training hall, the number of trainers, the number of assistant coaches. In order to increase the number of personnel, he applied for four temporary teaching assistants......

He had seen that battle when he was in the sun. D'Antoni did his own tactical drills. But usually he just looks at the teaching assistants!

Before the game, everyone also discussed how to play. On the spot, sometimes D'Antoni has something to do, and the assistant coach comes over and explains to the players what the next tactics are. The Grizzlies also have a few assistant coaches, but Jafaroni doesn't feel it's enough. He felt that he had to have as much as possible in terms of playing style and thinking.
