Chapter 271: A New Milestone Night

Thanks to Tang Shuai's drive, the Clippers scored 7 double-doubles, and the team's assists hit a new season high, playing a thorough team basketball.

After the winning game, streamers rained down from the sky, and fans in attendance gave the Clippers players a round of applause.

After a brief handshake, Hornacek left the arena with the Suns players in a wasteful manner.

Tang Shuai was in a very good mood at this time, the team won, the first double-double in his career, proved the doubts of the outside world with practical actions, and slapped Hornacek hard, everything is worth being happy about.

"Hey, Don, there's a TV station going to interview you later."

After waving to the crowd, he was about to leave the stadium with the team, when a member of the team's staff came up to him and said to him.

He was stunned for a moment, and then at the outstretched hand of the staff, he saw the TV station staff standing on the sidelines, and also saw a familiar figure.

KTLA TV, Los Angeles.

Next to the camera, smiling and waving at him, it was Christina, who had broken up at the café last time.

He immediately felt embarrassed, but he couldn't refuse this kind of post-match interview, so he had to walk over with his head.

"Hey, Helen." Tang Shuai walked over and greeted him with some curtle.

"Hey, Don, long time no see." Christina smiled and stretched out her hand, her face natural, and she didn't seem to care about what had happened before.

Tang Shuai shook hands with him, and then began the interview.

The focus of the interview was, of course, on the first double of his career. Christina is also a professional journalist, and she shows her professional nature after an interview.

After the interview, Christina quickly left. He didn't say anything superfluous, and it felt like he had forgotten about the café before.

Tang Shuai looked at Christina's departing figure, scratched his head, smiled bitterly, and followed back to the locker room.

As soon as he returned to the locker room, before he could take a shower, Stephenson told him that Cassel was going to a press conference. Paul is gone.

He had to leave the locker room and walk towards the press conference, and it was a really toss-up on this milestone night.

As he was walking, he saw Billups approaching.

"Don. Congratulations. Billups smiled and held out his hand.

"Thank you, Coach." Tang Shuai said gratefully, and hugged Billups.

"Hurry up, I'm waiting for you at the press conference." After parting, Billups urged.

Tang Shuai nodded. Then he walked quickly to the press conference.

This just walked in. It immediately attracted the attention of many media and reporters, and for a time it was full of flashing lights.

Somewhat embarrassed, he walked over to Paul and sat down.

The on-site public relations then signaled the start of the press conference.

As soon as this began, the reporters raised their hands in unison, and it seemed that there were many questions to ask.

The PR then motioned to one of them, a reporter from CBS, and when he got up, he asked Kassel directly: "Coach Sam, after winning today's game." The team has won six in a row and the next game is the Christmas game. You're up against a strong Cavaliers, is there any hope that the team will continue to extend its winning streak? ”

"The Cavaliers are a very strong opponent, they have LeBron, Kyrie (referring to Irving), Kevin (referring to Love), and some very strong role players, a team that aims for a championship, and this opponent will be a big test for us, but I believe that my players will definitely do their best to win this game and give the fans a Christmas gift."

"Coach Sam, the team has a proud record of 10 wins and 2 losses since you took charge, what are the key factors in this?" The next reporter's question is still related to the team's record.

"It's thanks to ......"

Several problems in a row, all related to the team, and Kassel also dealt with them one by one, and after almost a month in charge, he has fully adapted to the role of head coach.

"Next question." The PR then pointed to the next reporter.

It was a black female reporter who got up, he looked at Tang Shuai and asked directly: "Tang, first of all, congratulations on getting the first two doubles in your career, how do you feel now?" ”

Kassel was answering in front, Tang Shuai was a little bored sitting down, and now he heard the reporter ask himself, and he had already answered Christina this question just now, straightened his body, and said without thinking much: "Thank you, I feel great now, I didn't expect to be able to get a double-double data, this has something to do with the good performance of my teammates, and the signal to me tonight seems to be that every time I pass the ball, my teammates can convert it into a score." ”

"Statistically, you were only averaging 2.3 assists per game before this game, but you made 10 in this game, does that have anything to do with Coach Honacek's interview video?" As soon as Tang Shuai finished answering, the female reporter followed and asked, it seems that she has been prepared for a long time.

Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, under normal circumstances, the reporter's question is one, this female reporter asked two questions in a row, and the second question was so pertinent.

Public relations has no intention of blocking at this time, it seems that this should still be within the rules.

The reporters in the audience looked at him with all their brushes, as if they were all concerned about his answer to this question.

"Hornacek is a very good coach." Tang Shuai has participated in the press conference many times, listened to so much, and probably knows the routine of answering questions, not to mention anything else, first put on the routine, and then said, "But my performance doesn't have much to do with that, you know, this is just my second start, the tacit understanding between the last game and the other starters is insufficient, this one has been adjusted, it's as simple as that." ”

"But you've only had 2.3 assists before." The reporter specially reminded again.

Tang Shuai's brows frowned slightly, this reporter was really unrelenting, but he still turned his head to look at Kassel, and said with a smile: "You have to ask Coach Sam about this, when I was a substitute, the task given to me by the coach was to score." ”

Cassel nodded, he was very clear about Tang Shuai's advantages and disadvantages, maybe he was observing at the beginning, but when he got to the back, he did arrange it like this.

Seeing that Kassel nodded, the reporter sat down a little unwillingly.

"The next question, because of time constraints, is limited to one question." The PR was obviously also a little unhappy with what had just happened.

This time it was ANT who got up, and then he looked at Paul and asked, "CP3, this is the second time you and Don have played together, does this game feel any different from before?" ”

This reporter is very smart, and the reporter was deflated just now, and he simply started with Paul in this corner.

'Don is fantastic, you know, he's just a rookie, he's only played in the league for a little over 20 games, and it's only his second start, but he's improved a lot, whether it's because of Coach Hornacek or because of his adjustments, he's proven himself and he can play really good games with us. Paul was as unspitable as he had for Bledsoe and Darren Collison before him.

ps: I just got home, I took a car for a day, and I came back and took a shower and immediately came up to update, and the update was late, so I apologize to everyone! (To be continued.) )
