The first two games of the group stage of the round of 16 were bloodless, and they simply killed three times in a row. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Lu Deng starts each game with a section.

In the eight-in-four knockout round, Kyoto University played against the host Dongshen University.

Dongshen University's home game, coupled with the "celebrity" Lu Deng, who continues to accumulate popularity, this game has attracted much attention.

The staff of the land team did a good job of paving the way, inviting assistant coaches and scouts from many CBA teams to watch the game. Not only that, but the game also attracted reporters from more than a dozen media outlets.

Some of the reporters came from Kyoto, and some of them were local media from the three northeastern provinces. An ordinary basketball game between universities can attract so many reporters, and the "credit" should also be credited to Lu Deng.

Players and coaches from the other six varsity teams that made it to the knockout round appeared in the stands, including Tianye University. There are also Jinghua University, Zhushi University, etc., all of which are teams that have the strength to impact the championship in this competition.

Lu Deng saw them, especially Yuan Taiping.

Yuan Taiping sat next to the coach, carrying a notebook and a pen in his hand, and sometimes lowered his head to whisper a few words to the coach, and wrote down a few strokes in the notebook.

At the beginning of the game, Lu Deng started, opened the game three as usual, and quickly opened the situation, and the commonplace outburst led to the climax.

Lu Deng, who has grown ten centimeters taller, no one in Dongshen University can prevent his shooting. At the end of the first quarter, 30:8, leading by 22 points, Lu Deng scored 18 points.

From the beginning, Yuan Taiping never let out a cheer, he just whispered to the head coach while watching the game, and then quickly recorded.

This is still a good learner! Lu Deng thought that they must be studying how to deal with me. Go for research, I'm a systematic person, and it's useless to study it. You're the best defensive player, and I'm not going to make the best defensive player a sieve.

Until the end of the game, Lu Deng did not appear again. The knockout stage is no different from the group stage, and it is easy to win.

After the game, at the strong request of the media, Iron and Steel took Gao Xian and Lu Deng to hold a press conference. Prior to this, there was never a press conference at the end of the CUBA match because there were very few journalists.

At the press conference, most of the questions had nothing to do with tactics or coaches, and most reporters only stared at Lu Deng to ask questions.

"Lu Deng, why did you only play one quarter? Is it to preserve strength? ”

Lu Deng said: "You should ask the coach this question, what I have to do is: obey the coach's arrangement and obey the coach's command." ”

After Lu Deng finished speaking, he deliberately led the question to Iron and Steel, and asked jokingly: "Coach, why do you only let me play one section?" You see, they all have opinions. ”

Tie Steely smiled slightly: "Actually, I think I can replace you by playing half a section, and everyone loves to watch you play, and the second half of the quarter is given." ”

The reporters let out a sparse laugh. Another reporter asked: "Lu Deng, did the national team summon you?" ”

Lu Deng shook his head: "No." ”

"Why not?"

"Well, you can ask the head coach of the national team for me."

"Would you like to play for the national team?"

"Isn't serving the country the highest ideal of every aspiring young man? Of course I do, but when will you call me to the national team? ”

The reporters laughed again, and the reporter who asked the question said embarrassedly: "If I can call the shots, I will approve the note now." ”

At this time, a professional basketball reporter stood up and asked, "Lu Deng, I heard that you have signed an agent, have you decided to enter the professional league?" ”

Lu Deng smiled: "I love basketball, in fact, it is the same wherever I play basketball." Anyway, you have to play basketball, and if you can make money by playing basketball, wouldn't it be better? ”

Turning his head and saying to the coach: "Coach, I didn't say that the subsidy of the school team is low, red mouth and white teeth, I can say it clearly, if they write like this, you are not allowed to rely on me." ”

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere of the press conference became more and more relaxed.

"Lu Deng, is there a CBA team that has thrown an olive branch to you or signed a contract at present?"

"Not for the time being, everything is under negotiation."

Finally, someone asked Iron Steel: "Iron Guide, if Lu Deng decides to enter the professional league, will you release him?" ”

"He is a student, and he only has the problem of teaching and learning with the school, as long as the procedures for admission, withdrawal or suspension are completed, I have no right to interfere," he said. ”

A reporter continued to ask Lu Deng: "As far as we know, before you, there were many players who went from college to professional basketball, but there are very few who are famous. The star of the CBA team? Main? Or is it a regular rotation player? Or even just get into the Pro League? ”

Lu Deng asked rhetorically: "Do I have the final say?" If the team owner listens to me, then I will be positioned as a star and at least make more money. ”

Another burst of laughter.

Most of the reporters admired Lu Deng's eloquent style and his clever and wise answers.

At this time, a female reporter who stood up, a senior reporter from a basketball newspaper, asked: "Lu Deng, do you want to go to the NBA to develop?" ”

"Of course I want to, who doesn't want to go to the NBA to develop in basketball, the dollar is worth more than the yuan."

The female reporter asked: "I heard that your agency team has gone to the United States to prepare for you to participate in the draft, is there such a thing?" ”

Lu Deng was stunned, how did she know about this?

Lu Deng's preparation for the draft was not announced, mainly because he was afraid that the draft result would be unpredictable, and in the absence of any certainty, the Lu team did not want to reveal the news, so as not to bring huge pressure.

The female reporter was always observing the words, and when she saw that Lu Deng was slightly stunned, she asked: "It seems that you are indeed acting, can you reveal more details?" ”

Lu Deng smiled: "It's kind of preparing, but there are no specific details to share with you!" ”

In the conference room, there was a lot of noise and discussions:

"Lu Deng is going to participate in the draft?"

"There has never been a single Chinese college player in the draft."

"Is Lu Deng going to be the first person to participate in the draft as a college student?"

"China can't make such mature players, Lu Dengxing?"

Several reporters quickly took out their mobile phones and sent text messages to report on the topic selection: "There is a major news, Lu Deng's team is operating to participate in the NBA draft. ”

The female reporter continued to ask: "Which teams have you contacted so far?" Are there any teams interested in you, and what do you think about your draft prospects? ”

Lu Deng looked at Fat Wei who was standing at the door, and Fat Wei nodded at him.

Fat Wei has always been open to hype, and he has no doubts about Lu Deng's strength.

In his opinion, Lu Deng's current level can not only crush CUBA, but also crush CBA. Why can't you take out the hype if you have strong strength, the hype is healthier, the exposure rate is higher, and the development prospects are broader.

As for the pressure of public opinion brought by attention, he has never seen Lu Deng under pressure! It's okay to put some pressure on him!

Lu Deng looked at Tie Steel, Iron Steel, smiled slightly, and whispered in Lu Deng's ear: "It's not a bad thing to reveal things appropriately, and maintaining a sense of mystery is more conducive to enhancing your value and exposure." ”
