Chapter 122: Announcement of Candidacy
Ding Moan and David. Falck's unexpected arrival startled the reporters who had been in the press briefing room. And the hundreds of reporters who came behind did not hesitate to press the shutter in their hands in a cheer, and in the sound of a click of the shutter, these stunned reporters suddenly woke up and pressed the shutter.
Even the most stupid people can understand why these later reporters would ignore Ross just now. If it were them, they would definitely only be to Ding Mo'an and David. Falck's combination was interested, and as for Ross and B.J. Armstrong as they looked at the already rioting media reporters and hid their faces, they needed a place to calm down.
People are really incomparable!
Given that Ding Mo'an and David. Falck didn't follow the rules, and then held a press conference, and no one paid attention. Even if you notice, what can you say, who made Ding Mo'an's agent, David. Falck's energy in the Bulls and Chicago is much stronger than that of B.J. Armstrong.
Just said hello to the Bulls management, and the Bulls management readily agreed to Ding Mo'an's press conference with Rose, and then started. In fact, the reason why the Bulls management agreed so boldly was not only for the sake of David. Falke has a good relationship with them, and on the other hand, it is because of Ding Mo'an.
When Rose joined the Memphis Tigers, the Bulls distracted Rose with a large portion of their attention. After all, Rose's fame was too great before, he was the No. 1 high school student in the United States and a Chicagoan, and it was difficult for the Bulls not to pay attention to him, and even the Bulls management intended to set Rose as the No. 1 target in the draft.
However, the unexpected happened.
No one paid attention to the addition of an obscure Chinese talent before the start of the season, but it was this talent that made the Tigers, the NCAA and the entire NBA a sensation afterwards. The first race of the season showed the world what speed is, and then it was out of control.
The NCAA scoring champion, the man who surpassed God, led the Tigers to victory over one opponent after another, until he won the championship a few days ago, and became the MOP of the Final Four himself, this person is Ding Mo'an.
The emergence of Ding Moan has completely changed the management of many teams with first-round picks, and the Bulls management is also one of the original goals. The goal they started with, although Rose was not crushed to slag in front of Ding Mo'an, was much inferior in the end.
And yesterday, in his championship speech, Ding Moan expressed his desire to stay in Memphis to play, but it broke the heart of the Bulls management. So they began to show favor with Ding Mo'an holding a press conference at the United Center, after all, Ding Mo'an is undoubtedly a better choice than Rose, a Chicago genius who is overshadowed by Ding Mo'an's brilliance.
The Bulls management is determined to use love to influence Ding Mo'an, naturally not fatherly love, but attention to express their attitude to Ding Mo'an: What treatment do you receive in Memphis, we in Chicago treat you better than Memphis!
Under such a standard, Ding Mo'an, who was still waiting for the end of Rose's press conference in the background, was surprised. Sitting there, there were many Bull staff serving coffee and fruit to him, and then the general manager of Bull took all his subordinates with him like a KFC grandfather and chatted with him about life in the United States.
But David. Falck knew Ding Mo'an's thoughts, in order to avoid the picture of Ding Mo'an and the general manager of the Bulls having a long conversation, it was photographed by people with ulterior motives and circulated and caused trouble. Falck quickly said sorry to the general manager of the Bulls, and then waited for Rose's press conference at the door of the press conference hall with Ding Moan.
Can't blame David. Falke's cautious approach is mainly that after he is really photographed, Ding Mo'an's trouble will be big. Because since Ding Moan has promised Memphis fans to stay in Memphis, he will be photographed sitting with the general manager of the Bulls the next day, and even if Memphis fans trust Ding Moan again, there will be a misunderstanding.
At the same time, Ding Mo'an picked up another microphone on the table, faced the hundreds of cameras at the moment and said: "The NCAA season is over, and it will be a dream season for me and everyone on the Memphis Tigers." We won the championship, and yes, my teammates and I won the highest NCAA honors. ”
"When I won the trophy, I knew that my NCAA career was over and that I needed to go higher and get the glory. I thank the head coach of the team, Mr. Calypari, and the Memphis Tigers for taking care of me, but sorry Mr. Calypari, I'm going to the NBA and I can't take you to a championship anymore. ”
Ding Mo'an teased the head coach Calipari, who was recently criticized as relying on the invincible twin stars in the team and winning the championship with a full number in his hand, which caused nearly 1,000 reporters in the audience to laugh, and he continued: "Coach Calipari is a good coach, I believe that he can still win the championship without us in the future." So I'm here to announce that I'm going to be in the 2008 NBA Draft! ”
After Ding Mo'an's words fell, the reporters at the scene applauded very face-savingly, and the movement was even louder than after Ross announced just now. If Rose were here now, I'd probably be going to go berserk: I didn't see you so excited when I was here.
Then, after entering the media question session, the sound in the press conference hall was like a vegetable market, and every reporter tirelessly raised his hand and even asked questions loudly to Ding Mo'an on the stage, and Ding Mo'an also answered them one by one:
"Ding, you said you wanted to stay in Memphis, are you still so determined? I've heard that the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Clippers are both interested in you. ”
"I'm a man and a player second. During my months in Memphis, I felt the love of the fans in the city, and I wanted to play for the city of Memphis, so the answer was that I was determined. After that, I thanked both teams for taking me seriously, but that won't be until the draft. ”
Ding Mo'an's answer was very clever, and he didn't say that he had to go to the Grizzlies. If you say that after that, the Grizzlies see that they have to go to him, it is likely to cause a negative effect, and when the Grizzlies hold that this guy only comes to our team anyway, and other teams choose him, he can't go, why not expand the interests, use the good pick to choose others, and then use an ordinary pick to choose him?
"Then may I ask you, when was it with David. Falck to establish a broker relationship? ”
"On the night of the victory, Michael. Jordan approached me and introduced David to me, and David flew to Chicago that night, and then we met before the championship parade, and we had a good conversation, and I chose David. Falck as my agent. ”
