Chapter Twenty-Eight: Fate Only

When Li Cheng walked to the sideline, he was stopped by a reporter, a black woman in professional attire. Li Cheng, a female reporter with a chocolate complexion, had some impressions of him, and it was this reporter who interviewed him on the sidelines on the night he killed the Trailblazer. The reason why Li Cheng can remember her is because she has a beautiful face that is rare for black women.

"Lee, we're meeting again, and I hope you'll be interviewed by me."

Li Cheng nodded, "No problem, but you have to hurry, I'm tired." ”

"Today you did the feat of 50 points in a single game, but you stayed at the end of the bench for a long time before that, how did you suddenly explode?"

"I've never believed that next to the water cooler is my destiny, I've always worked hard, I've always persevered. I didn't give up when my life was at its darkest, I gritted my teeth and persevered, and finally, I waited for the dawn. ”

"Today you're only 20 years and 54 days old, and you broke the record for the youngest player to score 50 points in a single game held by James (20 years and 80 days), how do you feel?"

"I'm lucky, every time I score 50 points in a single game, it takes luck." Li Cheng attributed all qiē to luck.

"You led the team to victory today, will you be a substitute next? What are your wishes for this year? ”

'I've said it many times that I'm not a substitute and the coach says that as long as I'm on the pitch I'm going to do my best to play for the team. And our desire this year, of course, is to get into the playoffs and then go as far as possible in the playoffs. Li Cheng's answer was still decent, he didn't want to be caught by reporters.

"Well, thank you very much for your cooperation. I think we'll have more opportunities to meet in the future. The female reporter blinked wide-eyed and smiled.

Li Cheng turned around and walked into the player's tunnel, and after he scored 50 points tonight, there will definitely be a lot of trouble. As long as the reporter is in this stadium, he will definitely want to interview him. He had to go back and take a good shower before he had the strength to deal with the reporters.

Originally, Li Cheng thought that he would just need to deal with reporters in the locker room, but O'Brien asked him to go to the press conference with Granger.

Since the day he entered the NBA, Li Cheng never thought that he would be able to attend the post-game press conference. The players who can be there are the core of each team. Those people are the main forces of their respective teams, and they are also the ones that the media are most interested in.

"Danny, what is the dress code for the press conference?" Li Cheng looked at Granger and asked.

Granger looked at Li Cheng's somewhat nervous face and smiled, "Do you think it's a blind date?" As long as you don't go out naked. ”

"Oh!" Li Cheng answered and put on a casual outfit and walked with Granger to the scene of the press conference.

Li Cheng and Granger had just arrived at the scene when the shutter of the camera resounded like machine gun fire. For Li Cheng, who has never experienced such a scene, he seems a little uncomfortable. Granger pulled him to sit down, and soon the press conference officially began.

After Granger and O'Brien's speeches, it was Li Cheng's turn to speak.

'I was in very good shape today and I was lucky to score a lot of goals that I wouldn't normally be able to score. LeBron is a very strong opponent and if it weren't for my luck and very good form today, I wouldn't be his opponent. Li Cheng's speech was very concise, and then the press conference entered the question session that the reporters were most interested in.

Almost every reporter who was called by the press officer threw the question at Li Cheng.

"What happened between you and LeBron tonight that led you to a big fight?"

"It's a problem with basketball, and we've solved it on the basketball court."

"What do you have to say about beating LeBron's team in Cleveland today and breaking the league's record for the youngest single game with 50 points?"

"It's just fate."

At this moment, everyone, including Li Cheng himself, didn't know. His phrase "just fate" will become a topic of conversation for everyone who follows the NBA. The collision between him and James has just kicked off tonight.

After answering a few questions from reporters one after another, Li Cheng felt that dealing with these reporters was much more tiring than dealing with James. O'Brien and Granger, who were beside him, looked embarrassed, and they hadn't been asked a single question except for the first remarks.

Finally, a reporter threw the question to O'Brien and Granger, and the two of them found a sense of guilt.

……

The Pacers will sit at home the day after tomorrow to wait for the New Jersey Nets challenge, and then they will travel to New Jersey to play the Nets back-to-back. At this time, the Pacers players were sitting on the plane back to Indianapolis.

"Li, you stole my limelight tonight, what should you do?" Granger put his arm around Li Cheng's shoulders and joked.

"you, don't try to scold me." Li Cheng scolded with a smile: "You used to be in the limelight almost every night, why didn't you compensate me?" ”

"If I hadn't passed you the ball at the end tonight, would you have had one last shot?"

"Damn, just say what you want!"

Granger looked like he had succeeded in his treacherous plan and said, "Go out at night, you have a treat." ”

Before Li Cheng could speak, Granger hurriedly said: "Brother is good to you, I'm afraid that you will be stupid in training every day, and it is also very necessary to relax and relax properly." ”

"You're really good to me?"

"That's good for you."

"Then you lend me some money." Li Cheng stretched out his hand in front of Granger.

Granger grinned and said, "That's not going to work, but I can help you find a few girls tonight." ”

"Neurotic, let's go with everyone!"

"I've already told everybody to go, everybody except Mike."

"Damn, you let Lao Tzu have a treat, and you were the last one to inform me?"

Granger pursed his lips and said, "You have to understand my brother's good intentions. ”

Actually, Granger was a bit cautious. He knew that after Li Cheng's shit agent broke up in front of the media, there must be people in the team who would be dissatisfied. He picked up Li Chenglai to play like this just to resolve small contradictions, and by the way, to enhance the relationship with his teammates.

And the reason why Li Cheng agreed so happily was also because he had the intention to win over his teammates. What is the fastest way to build friendship between men? Nothing more than fighting, drinking, **.

He's always wanted to invite his teammates out to have fun, but he hasn't had time to do it yet. Today, Granger helped him get things done.

Li Cheng could feel Granger's kindness, and he patted his right hand on Granger's shoulder as a gesture of gratitude.
