In the whole hall, there was something to smell of a falling pin.

The reporters' eyes were on Zhong Yu, waiting for his answer.

Zhong Yu pushed the microphone, and the annoyance in his eyes flashed, but after a moment he sat down quietly. "The Hornets are a mature NBA team, and Chris Paul's injury makes us sad. But we're going to keep trying, and as for asking me if I'm going to be the leader of the Hornets in Chris's absence...... All I can say is that I will do everything I can. No matter what position I am in, I will always focus on the team and give everything I can for this team. ”

……

Strictly speaking, he did not answer the reporter's question head-on.

However, many people feel that Zhong Yu did answer maturely enough.

He didn't get angry and say that his brothers were lying in the hospital, and these people were falling behind his back, nor did he say that he wanted to be a leader.

He was still calm.

Immediately after the game, Jongwook went to visit Paul.

Paul is injured but optimistic, believing that he can still beat the clock with rugby and bowling with his knee injury and groin strain.

In the end, Paul still said with a somewhat complicated expression: "Zhong Yu, the Hornets after that, I bet that they will face many, many difficulties and more strong teams. But, either way, you need to be the sharpest thorn in this team......"

Chung Yu nodded at that time, and when he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt that he knew what Paul meant.

That night, Jongwook made a phone call to Scarlett.

"Zhong Yu, you have to calm down...... Either way, you have to pay attention to your body. Scarlett said: "Chris is hurt, I know you're sad, and some people are saying other things that are not good, but you have to believe in yourself." ”

Zhong Yu snorted, and then said: "However, about this team, about the leader, in fact, I didn't think about it myself, before this, I often only thought of tearing up the opponent with my best scoring ability...... However, judging from the current situation, I will have to think more about it in the future. ”

Scarlett said: "That's exactly what I want to tell you, I've always believed that you're the best NBA player, trust me, you're the best no matter what the situation! It doesn't matter what position you're in. ”

After the phone call with Scarlett, Zhong Yu felt much more relaxed.

……

It's just that the situation of the Hornets is not optimistic.

After being beaten by the Trail Blazers at home, the Hornets next took on the Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers on the road, and in both games, they swallowed the consequences of defeat.

The losses in these two games are fundamentally due to problems with the Hornets' offense.

Without Paul, the Hornets' offensive system is not working smoothly.

In the end, it became a separate battle, a bit of a plate of loose sand.

This situation is the most terrible for the team.

In the locker room, Zhong Yu also began to learn to be the backbone of everyone's hearts, but it will take a little time. Moreover, in order to be able to set an example, he had problems with his physical conditioning, and by the second half of the game, his performance gradually deteriorated.

The game against the Bulls collapsed in the final moments, and the same was true with the 76ers......

The Hornets suffered a two-game losing streak.

Zhong Yu felt very powerless, this statement was indescribable, as if something was missing...... I always feel that some places are empty, and sometimes I even feel that I can't find my way.

Moreover, Zhong Yu is also under unprecedented pressure.

Because, the current fans and media have questioned him most strongly.

After two consecutive losses, the Hornets have the same record as the Lakers...... Moreover, the Lakers have a game tomorrow, and the Hornets have a game the day after tomorrow - at home against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

As a result, the Lakers won and overtook the Hornets in the Western Conference in terms of record standings.

The pressure on Zhong Yu's body is unprecedentedly huge.

After losing to the 76ers, Jongwook faced a lot of difficulties. He is also being suspected by many people.

――――――

LOS MAIL -- The Hornets are in an unprecedented predicament, and the Hornets seem to have lost their soul without Chris Paul. Originally, many fans were counting on Jongwook to stand up and become their savior at this time...... But alas, this did not materialize.

"Phoenix Times" -- The player who made many people think that he was as good as the Suns, Zhong Yu, did not step up at the most critical moment of Paul's injury. Maybe it's because he's still too young, maybe it's because his technique isn't mature enough...... In short, when a lot of players need him, they don't see it.

The New York Times -- The Hornets sank to rock bottom without Paul. Originally, many people thought that Jongwook could become the leader of the Hornets...... But as things stand, he hasn't been able to get this done. Moreover, many Hornets fans originally thought that with Zhong Yu and Paul, either of them, they would be a strong team, but the current situation is that without Paul, Zhong Yu is nothing. The Hornets are facing a difficult dilemma, and the Hornets without Paul seem to be at a loss for what to do and what they can do.

……

All kinds of pressure, although there is no way to crush Zhong Yu's shoulders, he does face a lot of things.

He needs to prove himself......

It doesn't matter about brotherhood, it doesn't matter whether it's disgusting or not, in short, he wants to prove that the Hornets have other players besides Paul. They were also able to carry the Hornets sky on their own shoulders.

He has never had a bad feeling for Paul, but the clay man is also angry, and when he is so belittled by others, Zhongyu wants to prove himself.

In the past few days since Paul was injured, the Hornets really didn't play well enough.

The training ground for the day!

Tomorrow night, the Hornets will host the Cleveland Cavaliers, but many people on the training ground today are a little listless.

Zhong Yu frowned, it can't go on like this......

It's not that such a training session will allow them to find a way to beat the Cavaliers, but if this training doesn't go through properly and the team is still demoralized, it is almost impossible to beat the Cavaliers.

So, Zhong Yu thought about it, and when everyone was resting, while Scott was talking, he himself came to everyone with a smile: "Guys...... We've got to do our best! I can't lose this game because I heard a reporter say that if we can beat the Cavaliers, he will eat a nail......"

Everyone smiled and slowly relaxed.

Zhong Yu continued: "Knights, in fact, they can't beat us...... Our lineup is complete with the Cavaliers! Maybe James has a problem there, but cutting off his teammates, his own scoring, it's not so scary......"

Jongwook was pushing himself to become the leader of this team, and he said a few things, most of them new attempts. The method that Zhong Yu used to mobilize everyone's will to fight on the court with the righteousness of brotherhood on the court is not necessarily useful now.

When he said this, it made everyone's hearts brighten up a little......

Indeed! The Cavaliers don't have any special guards other than James......

……

This game also attracted the attention of many people.

Although the Hornets have suffered two consecutive defeats, they still have enough appeal to fans because the Hornets have Jong-wook in them. Zhong Yu's ball wind can be fluttering like flying, and it can also be as fast as lightning and cut into invincibility.

Moreover, they also want to see if the Hornets face the challenge of the Cavaliers and have any ways to deal with it.

The Cavaliers currently sit second in the league and tie second with the Hornets (who lost to the Lakers after two straight losses).

And this season, the Cavaliers also have an eye-catching combination - James and Mo Bu Pass.

It was rumored that the Bucks, who were playing more and more independently, were about to be unable to mix, and the Cavaliers didn't expect to be fulfilled all at once. He became the emperor's right hand, and every game, he was able to score a lot of points with James.

The two men included a crazy performance of 40 points and 30 points in one game. The duo is shining brighter and brighter.

What's more, James was originally an indescribably strong player.

He's selfless, he's physical, and when he wants to score, there's hardly anyone in the league who can guard him. The current James may only have a slight flaw in mid-to-long shooting, but this flaw is being quickly remedied.

Moreover, he can lead the collective frenzy of his teammates.

James was able to lead the entire Cavaliers to the Finals that year......

This person's toughness is actually needless to say.

……

In this way, there are still many fans watching the game between the Hornets and the Cavaliers.

What Jong-wook's fans hope is that Jong-wook can prove himself again and lead the Hornets to prove himself again.

"Man! You're out of luck. James smiled, "I know you have to win...... But I'm sorry, but we can't let you win. ”

Zhong Yu suddenly felt a little angry in his heart...... Although he knew that James was joking, his-for-tat thoughts suddenly rose: "Okay, let's see!" ”

"We'll see!"

……

The competition is officially on!

The jump ball was won by the Cavaliers, and then, James suddenly used his whirlwind speed to frantically hit the inside, and finally ended the offense with a slam dunk.

After that, he succeeded in another reflexive dunk!

James scored four points in a row in the opening game!

Suddenly, the whole arena was a little mournful - did the Hornets have another cup in this game?

At such a moment of mourning, the fire in Zhong Yu's eyes burned.

Paco had just passed the half-time when he asked Paco for the ball.

He'll need to use his scoring to get the Hornets back motivated!
