Chapter 296: Rumors Stop at Real Hammers
After the whole game was played, Ye Xuan's large-scale physical recovery potion was in vain, because except for the first two quarters of the game Ye Xuan played a little for a while, Ye Xuan basically didn't play in the second half, and he only played 20 minutes after the whole game, relying on his excellent performance in the first quarter of the game to get 32 points plus 5 assists, helping the Pacers win in Houston.
When Ye Xuan and Coach Frank came to the press conference, they happened to see Kevin McHale walking out of the press conference with a straight face. Ye Xuan was still a little confused, after all, after yesterday's contact, he still felt that this prestigious legendary power forward was quite easy to talk to.
But after sitting down, he knew why McHale was so angry, because the reporters in the audience were so exaggerated today, and the first reporter who was called up by the press officer directly deviated from the topic, and the reporter began to look for off-the-field questions as soon as he stood up, "Ye, first of all, congratulations on leading your team to an excellent record of 9 consecutive wins, I want to ask if you rushed to the Toyota Center with Howard today because you stayed with Howard all the time?" What do you think about Howard and Harden's dysfunctional play in today's game? ”
Ye Xuan naturally didn't want to take this pot, and quickly denied it, "That's right, I came to Houston yesterday to take my own flying lessons, that's right, I now have my own private pilot license, and I lived in Howard's house yesterday, because the two of us have been on good terms since last season, what?" Does the league have a rule that prohibits living in an opponent's home? ”
But Ye Xuan didn't expect these reporters to come prepared, and someone immediately mentioned that he saw Ye Xuan in and out of the Toyota Center yesterday, and there was also 'according to people familiar with the matter' of the grapevine, yesterday Ye Xuan also helped McHale give the outside players of the Rockets a shooting training session. Then these reporters began to use the question to play, asking Ye Xuan if he was dissatisfied with the competitiveness of the current Pacers, and whether he wanted to have a strong team to help him achieve better results.
In fact, for Ye Xuan, no matter how he answers, he will offend people in the end, either offending his teammates, or offending Howard and Harden, friends of the Rockets, so Ye Xuan wittily avoided these topics directly, and said directly, "I stayed well with the Pacers, and the atmosphere in our team is also very good, I don't want to say more, have you heard that the Pacers have discord within the team?" I don't dare to say anything else, the atmosphere in the Pacers team is definitely one of the best teams, as for those rumors, they are just maliciously made up by some ill-intentioned people, and I believe that the reporters on the scene will not do these tasteless things, right? ”
Ye Xuan explained, and at the same time, he also arranged these reporters in a roundabout way, and the most annoying thing was that Ye Xuan said at the end that he was not talking about you. This made the reporters present also dumb and eat Yellow Lotus, and they could only endure the loss. However, these reporters after that were still not ready to let Ye Xuan go, after all, Ye Xuan's limelight has been too big recently, basically as long as Ye Xuan's affairs are reported, the sales of the newspaper will not be less.
So after explaining the matter on the Rockets' side, other reporters immediately stood up and asked Ye Xuan about his bombardment of Byron Scott on his social networks, and also told Ye Xuan a little provocatively that Byron Scott's reaction after knowing about this matter was, 'Ye Xuan? I'm sorry I don't care what a data brush says. Trying to let Ye Xuan continue to play a role in this matter.
However, Ye Xuan was still quite witty, and directly said that it was the post-game press conference between the Pacers and the Rockets, and he would not answer other questions unrelated to this game. Sure enough, many reporters were unwilling to put down their hands, but there were still a number of reporters who were dedicated and ready to continue to ask questions, and they also rounded the question back: "May I ask if the abnormal performance of Harden and Howard and Beverley in this game has anything to do with you?" It is said that they ignored Coach McHale's ban yesterday and took you to Ye Xuan for a night of carnival? ”
Ye Xuan didn't know where these powerful reporters dug up the news, but since they all asked, Ye Xuan could only find some reasons to prevaricate the past, "We didn't go to a nightclub yesterday to party or anything, their performance today is not ideal, this is not without reason, you can't ask an athlete to be able to play well in every game of a season, there will always be a few games every season, the basket is like a cover, making you feel that Lady Luck has abandoned you." There's no way around it. ”
In fact, this is also Ye Xuan's words that stole Maddie, Maddie once made excuses in the face of reporters when he was in a very bad state and lost the game, at that time he said that he couldn't do anything about it, and there would always be one or two games every season that made him very embarrassed, very unfortunate, this game is today.
However, this answer obviously can't satisfy those reporters who actually have conclusive evidence, but it's a pity that Ye Xuan is just a player from another team, and if he wants to say that he violated the ban or something, it can't be McHale's turn to say anything, and Frank Vogel is sitting next to Ye Xuan, this state of ignoring what is going on outside the window is obviously not ready to punish Ye Xuan, and even Coach Frank is now ready to praise Ye Xuan, after all, Ye Xuan's move goes deep behind enemy lines, and he draws his salary from the bottom of the kettle, The trick of directly killing several enemy generals is really powerful, allowing his team to avoid a tough battle and win easily.
However, in general, since Ye Xuan took out the pilot's license, which is equivalent to a real hammer, it is equivalent to proving in disguise that those rumors are indeed just random fabrications, so this 'defection to the enemy' storm has not completely blown, and it has been strangled invisibly by Ye Xuan's Tai Chi push.
Of course, what Ye Xuan didn't know was that after this game, Howard and Harden were trained by Kevin McHale because they violated Coach McHale's ban, and finally punished a bunch of training, so that Howard sent text messages to Ye Xuan after training to complain, complaining that Ye Xuan didn't give some face, and was so ruthless during the game, if the Pacers won a little less, maybe they wouldn't be trained so badly, of course, these are all later words.
