"Speak loud!"

After the third game between the Kings and the Spurs, a series of details that occurred in the post-game press conference made the media reporters from San Antonio at least the scene furious.

These reporters interspersed Gu Yu's words and Cousins' words together, first creating the image of Gu Yu, an arrogant ghost who talks to himself, thinks too highly of himself, and is extremely unfriendly to the media. Then beside Gu Yu, a "real honest man" and "the only good player who dares to tell the truth" Cousins were installed.

Using such a set of contrasting images, the antagonistic atmosphere within the Kings team was established at once.

"Scolding the media for being 'shameless'! Do Kings stars treat ignorance as personality? ”

The second step is to find out the respective royal experts of the major media and over-interpret Gu Yu's words. directly transformed Gu Yu's original words for "a small number of people who don't want Bilian on the scene" into the meaning of "everyone here is garbage".

So Gu Yu, overnight, almost became the public enemy of the media in the United States.

"Cousin, I ......"

Seeing that Gu Yu was directly pushed to the opposite side of the media in order to stand out for himself, Thompson was also a little unexpected. The next morning, when they met on the training court in the center of the team, Thompson immediately found Gu Yu, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.

"Well, Jason, I'm sorry ......"

Not far from Thompson's side, Cousins saw his teammates coming, and he was sorry in his heart, stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and under the push of Evans and others, he came to Thompson's side half-pushing, looked at the floor with both eyes, and muttered an apology.

“…… It's okay, you said it...... It's all the truth. ”

Thompson said this, but the way he looked at Cousins was noticeably different.

It's no wonder that any player is reprimanded in public by his usual inside partner, or in his absence, it is impossible for you to let him go of this matter immediately.

But after all, the king is still the king of Gu Yu, Cousins, and Evans, and Thompson knows this very well in his heart. At this time, Gu Yu and Evans were also there, and Cousins could be regarded as apologizing, but if he didn't accept it, Cousins's face would not be able to get by.

Of course, even if Cousins tweeted that night, apologized for his stupid behavior, and @Thompson, a compliment, saying that Thompson is the best interior teammate he has ever partnered with, diligent and hard-working, etc., etc., hoping to partner for another 10,000 years, it can be regarded as a public apology.

But it was Thompson, not Cousins, who really lost face. At most, people will say that Cousins is immature, open-mouthed, and tells the truth to the outside, just like Gu Yu.

But people won't say that Thompson was wronged, that he actually played very well, or something like that.

Because of Thompson, it really sucks.

From the beginning to the end, he was a piece of meat on the cutting board in front of Duncan, how to cut it, how to chop it, how to chop it, the kind that didn't resist without a butterfly.

"Mmmmmm, it's okay if everyone is okay, I'm okay too, next ...... Try harder! ”

Gu Yu also took advantage of the situation to play a round and reached out to pat the two teammates beside him. Evans and the others stepped forward, and one of them took one of the parties by the hand and let Cousins and Thompson shake hands, and on the surface, the matter was over.

"Good, good, practice, practice!!"

Westphal hasn't come yet, but there are already a lot of players who came to the stadium early to train, and everyone is also concerned, and they have stepped forward one after another.

But everyone did this more to consider the feelings of the three cores of the team.

How does Thompson feel?

Even if some fringe players feel the same way, they can't say it at this time.

This is the reality, without strength, everything is false. In the brutal arena of the NBA, only real stars will be taken seriously, role players do a good job, everyone praises them, they do a bad job, everyone scolds them, and it seems that the pressure is less than that of stars.

But when you have emotional problems, people don't really care about you.

"Daddy."

While practicing here, Evans, who was more delicate over there, stepped forward, dribbled the ball to Gu Yu's side, and frowned: "I can understand what you said yesterday, you are quite relieved, but now you are in this situation...... It's not good. ”

"What's wrong?"

Gu Yu looked back at Evans as if he was fine, and there was no trace of trouble in his eyes, and then he lowered his center of gravity and changed direction at high speed, flashed gorgeously in front of Evans, stepped sideways, and shot a layup with Nash's signature anti-rhythm with hands and feet.

"Huh!"

"Haha smash! You've been by me again!! ”

…… It's all about basketball!

Evans also admires that at this time, in the whole United States, and even in the world's media circles, Gu Yu can hardly find a home that has been sprayed by reporters. Where is Gu Yu here? But he didn't care at all, and was still cheering for the beautiful moves in a practice.

In the end, he is a ball addict and is dedicated to basketball, or is he a tendon and stunned? ?

"I'm telling you, don't think too much about it."

As if hearing Evans's heart, Gu Yu stopped celebrating, dribbled the ball with one hand, turned around all the way to his crotch, and flew up and down beside Evans: "What happened on the basketball court, I figured it out a long time ago. We're all professional players, and when we get paid, we play, no, we were born to play. What is the off-the-field situation, how is the media relations, that is secondary. The most important thing is to make yourself stronger. ”

"Look at Scala Brien, relations with the media, right? But his strength has reached that level, no matter how good the relationship between the media and him is, what is the use of writing more funny articles and messy news for him? Can he get a big contract? Can I get an advertising endorsement? ”

"This ...... It doesn't seem like there's any. ”

Evans shook his head.

"I'm not saying he doesn't play well! He's a really good role player, and I'm sure that if a guy with that personality comes and plays with us, everyone will be happy and the team atmosphere will be good. ”

Gu Yu shrugged, and with one hand, he flashed past Evans again: "But this will not fundamentally change, the fact that he is a chicken." ”

This logic ...... It's kind of fun!

Evans has always been a person who thinks more than dribbling, and this exchange with Gu Yu, listening to Gu Yu's simple and rude way of looking at the problem, really got a lot of inspiration.

"And what about Jordan? Does he have a good relationship with the media? No. What about the old drunkard? In addition to being in a good mood and joking and telling some bad jokes, is he polite to the media? Not at all polite, even with a terrible attitude. But it doesn't matter, do you know why? ”

Gu Yu rubbed the ball behind his back and turned around on the spot, returned to Evans, his body stopped suddenly, his right hand lit up, and stretched out a few fingers: "Because they have rings." ”

“…… Call! ”

Shooting with his hands open, Gu Yu was like shooting a killer ball, staring at the basket intently with his eyes, and after landing, his right hand still maintained a shooting posture.

"I want to win, I want to win a championship, I'm crazy."

“…… Swish! ”

When the basketball entered the net, Gu Yu took a deep breath and slowly put down his right hand: "I believe you too, so is DeMarcus, and Jason is the same in his heart." It's just that we have different abilities, and the opponents we face are also different, so if we play well, we will be happy and win together. If you don't play well, everyone gets angry and loses together. There is no need to explain these things to the media. ”

"As long as the championship is in hand, the victory is in place, all the problems will be solved. This is a world of wins and defeats, and only the victors are qualified to pick and choose. As long as we win, it doesn't matter this year, or next year, or three or five years. Let's hold on, ignore the pressure of the media, the pressure of public opinion, play well, keep winning, and wait until we get the ring......"

Gu Yu's eyes fell, and he looked at Evans: "Whatever media image you have, whatever public image you have, it will be reversed." Now we can't do this, I was sprayed and scolded when I said those words, I deserved it, no wonder others. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for being too vegetable. ”

After speaking, Gu Yu turned around, finished the first stage of the exercise that started at four o'clock in the morning, and went to find a nutritionist to replenish the energy meal.

Evans was left standing still, motionless.

Winning can cover up a lot of things, and as soon as you lose, all the contradictions will be exposed.

We are now at such a crossroads.

"Hold on and keep winning."

Gu Yu's words kept echoing in Evans's mind.

Hold.

You can't beat the Spurs now, it doesn't matter, just hold on.

A few years later, the whole world ......

"Sooner or later, it will be our ......!"

"Come here, come here!"

Just when Evans was full of ambition and was ignited by Gu Yu's words, Westphall walked into the training ground, his face was very ugly, and he clapped his hands at the players who were practicing and said, "There are two notices!" ”

Notice......??

Hearing the words of the old coach, all the players were confused.

At this time, there is a notice??

No, wait...... When did Lao Shuai use the word "notice"?

If there is any decision, just say no, and use any notice, as if it were more formal.

With questions, the players gathered around the old coach one by one, only Gu Yu had already run to the equipment room, he didn't hear the old man's shout, and he was sweating and pushing the equipment with headphones.

And the first sentence of the old coach's mouth, the players were immediately stunned.

"Just received a notification from the league that the next game, which is tomorrow's home game against Spurs......"

Westfaal's face was extremely ugly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Gu, the ban ......!" ”
