Chapter 102: Temporary Leader
Kobe fell to the ground in pain and hugged his crooked foot, Artest saw that Kobe was injured and immediately rushed over, and directly punched Duntai Jones, who deliberately fouled Kobe, and directly knocked Duntai Jones down, how could the other players of the Hawks let their teammates be bullied when they saw that their teammates were injured!
So the two groups of players pushed and shoved together, Ye Feng naturally rushed over, and gave a kick according to Deng Tai Jones, Deng Tai Jones had just woken up a little from Artest's punch, and was about to get up when he was kicked down by Ye Feng's kick again!
The scene was chaotic, after the referee and the coach pulled away, the two teams began to separate, but they still glared at each other, Ye Feng took the lead under the protection of the on-site staff, after all, the game was over, the Lakers lost the game, but at least everyone was very united, seeing that Kobe Bryant was injured, everyone rushed over at once, and even D'Antoni couldn't say anything. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Thanks, brothers, I don't know how my injury is yet, but I'm going to try to recover as quickly as I can and fight with everyone in the playoffs!" Kobe Bryant's expression was painful, but as the leader of the Lakers, he still inspired his teammates, especially on the days when he was injured, the Lakers really don't know if they can keep the current eighth position in the West, if they can't make the playoffs, Kobe feels that even if his leg injury is healed, there is no value in coming back.
"Ye, I know your strength, I've told you a lot what you need to do as a team leader, the rest is up to you!" Kobe patted Ye Feng on the shoulder, and then left with the help of the team doctor.
Ye Feng listened carefully to Kobe's words, and thought about it, it is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Kobe's injury has made the Lakers lack a leader now, and Ye Feng now has this opportunity, as long as Ye Feng can seize this opportunity and lead the Lakers to play a good record, if he can keep the eighth position in the West, then more people will definitely recognize Ye Feng as a leader!
"Ye, I will support you! Come on! You have that ability! Howard walked over and patted the pensive Ye Feng on the shoulder, just now Kobe Bryant said this in front of all the players of the team also meant to support Ye Feng.
"Thanks, Dwight!" Ye Feng's heart warmed, looking at the support of his good brother Howard without hesitation, he was very grateful, but in Howard's heart, he had already given up competing for the position of leader of the Lakers, and Howard was ready to take this opportunity to make his good brother the leader of the Lakers in one fell swoop!
"That's right, Dwight, the combination of you and Ye Feng will be the guarantee of victory for us in the rest of the competition, Ye, I look forward to your growth!" D'Antoni also made his attitude clear at this time.
The head coach of the team, superstar Kobe Bryant, and Howard have all expressed their support for Ye Feng to become the leader of the Lakers during Kobe's injury, and the other players naturally won't say anything, so the transfer of power in the Lakers team was completed in the Hawks' away locker room!
After the game, D'Antoni took Ye Feng to attend the press conference, and the reporters frantically raised their hands to ask questions.
"Hello, Coach D'Antoni, is there anything you would like to say about Kobe's injury?"
"I think Kobe's injury stemmed from a malicious foul by the Hawks' Dundee Jones, and I think the league must stop such bad behavior and punish such players severely!"
"Hello, Coach D'Antoni, do you have anything to say about the clash between the players after the game?"
"No, no, it's not a hot fight, my players are just concerned about their teammate Kobe Bryant's injury, and there were some verbal altercations unexpectedly, but the attitude of each other is friendly!"
The reporters looked at D'Antoni with his eyes open and said nonsense, and the Eagles' Dundle Jones was concussed by Artest's punch, and said that the two sides were just some verbal arguments.
However, reporters are more concerned about another issue, Kobe Bryant is injured, the Lakers can't always be without a leader, the Lakers' Ye Feng is currently the best rookie of the year There is no doubt about it, and although Howard's performance this season has not shown his full strength, everyone is still more inclined to the Lakers' leader during Kobe's injury will be Howard!
After all, it is always a bit awkward for these proud American media to admit that a Chinese has become the leader of a giant team, but D'Antoni's words later really stunned these reporters!
"Well, I want to announce that during the time when our team's leader Kobe Bryant was injured, we discussed within the team that Ye from China will become the leader of the Lakers for a period of time in the future, and will lead the Lakers to continue to move forward during Kobe's injury, and we believe that Ye has this strength!" D'Antoni's words shocked reporters at once.
Although some reporters had expectations before, when D'Antoni showed them that the leader of the Lakers was going to become Ye Feng, although he was only a temporary leader, at least it represented the Lakers' attention to Ye Feng, as long as Kobe Bryant was in a period of time, there was absolutely no doubt that Ye Feng would become the leader of the Lakers!
Maybe this is just a fine-tuning made by the Lakers in order to let Ye Feng smoothly take over Kobe's leadership, and when the season is over, it will depend on how the Lakers' Kupchak operates and assembles a lineup for Ye Feng!
"Coach D'Antoni, why did you choose Ye instead of Dwight?"
"Coach D'Antoni, is the Lakers interested in letting Kobe Bryant hand over the rights to Ye?"
"Coach D'Antoni, does it mean that Howard will leave the Lakers after the season?"
……
Remembering that he was frying the pot all of a sudden, he frantically asked D'Antoni and Ye Feng questions, but the press officer at the scene was very experienced, and he was not shocked by the crazy attitude of the reporters, but said loudly: "Keep quiet!" Let Ye say a few words to you! ”
"I'm very grateful to the Lakers for their support to me, thank you for the trust of the boss, thank you for the support of my good brother Dwight, I'm a rookie, maybe many fans don't know me, but it doesn't matter, I will try my best to let everyone remember me, I am Ye Feng, a point guard from China, the leader of the Lakers!" Ye Feng's words were full of strong self-confidence, with a convincing momentum.
The reporters applauded Ye Feng heartily, and then after a few simple questions, Ye Feng and D'Antoni left the scene and gathered with Howard, Kobe Bryant has returned to Los Angeles for treatment, and Ye Feng and they still have to continue the game.
