Chapter 239: Mr. Trouble!
βMR. TROUBLEοΌ β
After the first game of the new season, countless media directly extended the trash words that Gu Yu said in the game and used it as a title. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Mr. Trouble!
"The argument is over, there's nothing more to fight about."
At the post-game press conference, the depressed Clippers owner Chris Paul sat on the press conference stage, looked at the microphone in front of him with his eyes lowered, and said: "He's our Mr. Trouble, he's the league's Mr. Trouble, I don't know how deep other teams know him now, and I've thoroughly experienced this game." β
There was an indescribable hint in Paul's eyes. On the one hand, he was extremely unhappy with the loss of the game, and on the other hand, he was convinced by the performance of his opponent, especially the performance of Mr. Trouble.
"There's no way, we used five people to defend him in the whole field, no matter who defends, he can directly overturn our people by himself, without any mercy."
Facing the reporter's question about Gu Yu's unreasonable choice of ultra-long three-point at the last moment of the game, Paul replied: "You only noticed this round, he shot this completely unreasonable three-point shot. But have you ever thought about it, this ball is just the last nail in the coffin board? Our rout, several rounds ago, was already doomed. β
can make Paul, who is extremely competitive, say such things in front of everyone, so that the Clippers who are full of ambition in the new season and ready to make some big moves are powerless to refute after the game.
Gu Yu's performance has stepped onto a new level.
'In that round, we used three guys to defend him and the defence was perfect. We didn't make any mistakes, the overall defensive thinking was completely correct, but he still shook us to slag. The last one shook me down, won't you use it as a press photo after the game? Definitely, right? β
Paul asked rhetorically, and many reporters at the scene scratched their heads, you look at me, I look at you, speechless.
Nonsense, of course it works!
The second-year rookie, the hairstyle brother who finally got the starting position, shook the defensive expert Paul to the ground in a very small space after shaking the two of them.
You don't necessarily see this kind of picture a few times a season, so if you don't use it as a photo, can you just wait for it to be wasted?
'After that goal, our defensive mentality collapsed.
Paul also knew that it was impossible for the reporters to answer his question, so he smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head: "It's my responsibility, after that goal, I decided to give up the hard defense against him and play against him." I'm confident, you know, I'm confident I'm in the top three in the league. But as it turned out, more than offensive explosiveness, I ...... Not his opponent. β
'We'll learn the lesson, a loss in one game doesn't prove anything. In this game, they played well as a team, and we had a mediocre touch on the offensive end. If we are on the same level, the winner is not yet known. So Kings, you have to get ready, the next time we meet, I, our Clippers, will definitely take away the ...... of victory! β
Paul said as he tried his best to rebuild his faith.
"Also, the rest of the league, especially the team that is coming up against the Kings in the near future, I have a kind suggestion for you......"
Raising a finger, Paul looked extremely serious, as if what he was going to say next would change the pattern of the entire world basketball circle.
"Don't mess with the hairstyle, don't mess with this trouble. If you annoy him and he decides to fight you to the end...... You're in super big trouble. β
There are three conditions for whether a person can do it or not.
First, you have to do it yourself.
Second, someone has to say you can do it.
Third, those who say you can do it themselves.
Gu Yu's performance has proved that he is "absolutely good". Paul's praise also proves that Gu Yu "must work" in the eyes of his opponents. And Paul's own strength and honor added a little weight to Paul's words.
Gu Yu, if you can't do it, you have to do it!
"In the first game of the season, you scored such a high score, congratulations, hairstyle brother!"
It was the turn of the Kings to attend the press conference, and before the reporter got up to ask questions, he congratulated Gu Yu well.
After the words came out, the reporter seemed to remember something, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I should call you...... MR. TROUBLE, Mr. Trouble! β
"Uh-huh, that nickname sounds hanging, and I like it."
Gu Yu nodded.
"While it was a fantastic game, we also noticed that last season, in a number of games, you played amazingly, and even broke the NBA all-time record for a rookie player to score points in a single game."
The reporter obviously had something to say, and immediately began to say: "And last season, after that kind of game, most of the time, you will quickly enter a period of weakness. The opponent's defense is more targeted, driving you into scoring areas that you are not good at, or simply provoking your nerves and making you shoot those unreasonable shots. All of this makes your scoring efficiency fluctuate. β
The reporter said this, and many reporters at the scene also nodded and began to record something in their notebooks. Obviously, everyone thought of Gu Yu's scoring ups and downs last season like a stock market shock.
"My question is, can you maintain that scoring efficiency this season? Will it be like last season's 'one super god and ten super ghosts'? Have you and the coaching staff discussed this issue carefully and found a solution? β
"Hmmm......"
Gu Yu had long expected this kind of problem, and glanced at Westfale beside him, who gave him an encouraging look.
Say whatever you want!
The old handsome eyes told Gu Yu: Say whatever comes to mind, don't care about the consequences and other things.
If even you, Gu Yu, start thinking about the consequences, what fun is there in this world? ?
"Of course I did."
Gu Yu nodded, looked back at the reporter, and said with a smile: "Everyone is very concerned about my scoring efficiency. I also know that all the teams are watching me and trying to find ways to keep my scoring momentum down. For this reason, I have been distressed for a while, old man...... Well, Coach Westphale has also talked to me many times about how to maintain his scoring efficiency and help the team as much as possible. β
Almost revealing the name that he usually jokingly called, Gu Yu wiped his sweat and continued: "But then it turned out that our adjustments were not effective. The team that can limit me is the team that can limit me. No matter how hot my previous fights were, they always managed to find a way to make me squirt. β
"Then I changed my mind, and I began to wonder, have any of the scorers in history who have been extremely consistent in scoring efficiency ever encountered similar problems?"
As soon as Gu Yu's question was raised, the reporters on the scene also fell into deep thought.
Have the famous scorers of all time had similar scoring ups and downs?
Of course.
Even if Jordan, the No. 1 scorer in history, has countless score-related records, except for Chamberlain, no one is convinced in the scoring field, and Joe Gang will still have peaks and valleys.
The rest of the scoring masters such as Abdul-Jabbar, Kobe, and LeBron, of course, have also encountered such problems, how did they solve this problem?
"It's simple."
Gu Yu left the reporters about ten seconds to think, and then continued: "Become stronger. β
In Gu Yu's eyes, the flames began to rise.
"I'm going to be limited because other teams have a way to make my scoring efficiency go down and make me play disastrous because I'm not good enough. As long as I'm strong enough, even if I don't feel good at shooting, I can always break through, right? Even if the breakthrough layup is always a little shorter, it can always make a foul, right? Even if the referee's whistle doesn't give face, I can still cut through the empty position and shoot those EASY-CHANCES, right? β
"So I started dribbling, I started breaking through, I started working on all kinds of steps. I'm still developing my three-point shot, honing my skills in making fouls and improving my free-throw shooting percentage. I can do anything to score points! β
Saying that, Gu Yu's upper body straightened: "When I'm strong enough, even if I only score single-digit points in a game, the opponent won't dare to let me go easily." Even if I had made 0 of 10 shots, the opponent still didn't dare to let me shoot the 11th shot. Jordan did this, Kobe Bryant did this, Abdul-Jabbar, LeBron, Iverson, Maddy, they all did it. β
"Maybe everyone has their own opinions about the knowledge and understanding of the game of basketball. But in my opinion, the essence of the game of basketball is simple: it is a game of who scores more points. β
That's a good sentence!
The reporters at the scene brushed their pens and hurriedly recorded Gu Yu's words in their notebooks, while at the same time thinking about a question:
Who said this first???
"I said before that I was their trouble, just a piece of trash, without thinking about it and not digging into it."
Gu Yu continued: "But now that I think about it carefully, I think this statement is not wrong. I don't know where I can reach in the future, and I don't know how far our king can go, but right now, the whole league, is it ready......? β
Gu Yu's eyes sank, and that cynical smile appeared on his face, and he raised his head slightly and said:
βCOS-TROUBLE-IS-ON-THE-WAYβ¦β¦οΌβ
All-Union, trouble is coming!
Throughout the game, the Clippers players played well, Blake Griffin had 22 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, and DeAndre Jordan had 9 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 blocks. Chron Butler had 14 points, Billups had 12 points, Mo Williams on the bench had 15 points and 3 assists, and Chris Paul, the core of the team, had 29 points, 13 assists and 3 steals. β
And all of this is not as dazzling as Gu Yu showed in this game.
