"Honestly, just and Reggie. I was still very excited when Miller was on the pitch, after all, it was the first NBA All-Star level opponent I had ever faced, and I was looking forward to playing against him. ”

Wang Feng held the microphone and talked eloquently. "But the actual results disappointed me, All-Star guards? That's it? Although in this game, he ended up scoring 21 points, which was a decent performance, but during the period against me, he didn't score even one point, and Miller couldn't score against my defense, and if I could be an All-Star at this level, I think I could be an All-Star. ”

Wang Feng's series of remarks successfully silenced the audience.

No one expected that Wang Feng would start a group like this6, they just threw out an introduction, and Wang Feng immediately came up.

Many reporters' eyes lit up, and the notebooks in their hands frantically recorded Wang Feng's words just now, and at the same time, they already thought of tonight's headlines on the front page in their minds.

Wang Feng: "Reggie. Miller didn't score a point in front of me! ”

Wang Feng: "That's all-star?" Then I can be an All-Star. ”

Wang Feng: "I gave myself 60 points of passing points, and Miller scored 10 points, which is a serious failure." ”

Ewing on the side opened his mouth and looked at Wang Feng in a daze, wondering if this guy was crazy?

When he commented on Miller like this, did he think about the consequences? When Miller sees him later, he doesn't play with him?

Wang Feng, who cares about you?

Defy? If you don't accept it, you will come back to heads-up, and it will be good to shut up after you are convinced.

What he has to do now is to make a name for himself as quickly as possible and play the main force of the team, and under this premise, as long as it is not a matter of principle, he will not care.

What's more, Wang Feng himself doesn't like Miller very much, and he won't have any psychological burden if he steps on Miller.

"Mr. Wang Feng, according to what you mean, do you think Miller's strength is just like that, far less powerful than you?"

A reporter continued to mend the knife and asked.

"Isn't that true? You didn't watch today's game? Wang Feng asked rhetorically.

A reporter from Indiana was a little upset.

"Miller is an All-Star player who has led the team to the playoffs for five consecutive years and can contribute an average of 20+3+3 per game in his career. What position does it take on at the Knicks? Who qualifies a team to judge the core players? ”

Wang Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at each other. "Strength and accolades are two different things, and the reason I don't have anything is because I've just joined the NBA, and given me enough time, I'll be able to achieve far more than him."

Throughout the press conference, the reporters' questions were basically focused on Wang Feng, and Ewing and Riley were almost completely ignored.

The results of the interview with Wang Feng made the reporters very satisfied, Wang Feng's answer was very straightforward, not at all as smooth as Ewing these star players who have become famous, and no one can be offended.

The reporters who returned home with a full load had already figured out how to write the news, and even reported on Wang Feng for three days in a row.

Ewing, on the other hand, was a little worried.

"Wang, you really shouldn't have said that, you didn't leave any room for yourself, these reporters' reports can really kill a person!"

After the press conference, Ewing couldn't help but talk to Wang Feng.

Ewing is very welcome to this very capable player, because he knows very well that with the current lineup of the Knicks, it may be difficult to win if they meet the Rockets again in the Finals.

Wang Feng's birth made Ewing see the hope of winning the championship, and he was happy that Wang Feng would enter the team's tactical system, and Wang Feng, who mainly attacked the outside, would not affect his tactical position in the Knicks too much.

Listening to Ewing's persuasion, Wang Feng just smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

He knew exactly what he wanted, and he wished that the reporters would make a big splash of what he had said, even if it was a matter of adding fuel to it.

Because Wang Feng himself has such strength.

At first, people may think that Wang Feng is just arrogant, but as Wang Feng continues to show his strong strength in the game, all doubts will disappear.

……

The next day, as expected, Wang Feng's various remarks at the press conference quickly became the hottest news in the league with the addition of fuel and vinegar from media reporters.

"Chinese players shine on the NBA court, come off the bench and score 35 points to help the Knicks defeat strong opponents!"

"This is all Star? I'm so disappointed, if I can be an All-Star at this level, of course I can! ”

"The most arrogant newcomer in history, Wang Feng is dismissive of All-Star guard Miller!"

Overnight, Wang Feng almost became a household name in the league, after all, unlike the last game against the Timberwolves bench rotation players, he faced Reggie this time. Miller, not to mention that in the interview after the game, Wang Feng also made a sneer.

But any reader who sees the news can't help but want to know, who is the Knicks, the Asian player who suddenly appeared, and why is it so crazy?

Then fans who didn't watch this game also knew the fact that Wang Feng scored 35 points in the confrontation with Miller and almost kept Miller clean.

"Where did this guy come from? It's so strong! ”

"Looking at his breakthrough speed, he can almost match Grant's speed. Hill is comparable, right? ”

"What is a breakthrough? Didn't you look at the three-pointers he shot? As the league's top three-point shooter, Miller can't compare to him at all, so what the hell is that range? Even when the league didn't shorten the three-point line, it wasn't as far away as he stood, right? ”

"And the defense, whether it is the defensive position, the offensive judgment of Miller, is almost flawless, and this outside defensive ability is completely comparable to Payton, Pippen and other top outside defensive players!"

People have a lot of discussions about Wang Feng, some think that Wang Feng is too arrogant, just a clown who wants to win attention, and some think that Wang Feng has arrogant capital and can prevent Miller to that extent, even if he is crazy, there is no problem.

And the video of this game was also sent to the president of the league as soon as it was over. Stern's office.

Stern, who didn't bother to watch the live broadcast of the game because of his work, watched the video tape of the game as soon as he found time.

A long silence ensued.

Looking at Wang Feng, who was as omnipotent as Jordan on the field, Stern was so excited that he couldn't get it enough.

That's it! What he wants is such a radiant Chinese player!

With Wang Feng's level, he can definitely become an All-Star level player, and his performance in the NBA will greatly promote the promotion of the NBA in China!

At this moment, Stern had already made up his mind.

"We must vigorously promote Wang Feng, the first Chinese player in the NBA, at all costs!"

That is, almost at the same time, Huaguo Sports News finally published the first page of the report on Wang Feng.

The name of the front page headline is very simple and straightforward.

"The first pioneer of Huaguo basketball to land in the NBA! NBA professional player Wang Feng! ”

It is still printed on a black-and-white printed newspaper, and it is a picture of Wang Feng wearing the No. 1 Knicks jersey and jumping high in the game to split the tomahawk.

Huaguo Sports News used a full page to introduce Wang Feng, including Wang Feng grew up in the United States, was born without a father and mother, grew up with twists and turns but self-improvement, inspirational dream of entering the NBA, and did not want to join the nationality of the United States, just want to return to the embrace of the motherland.

As soon as the newspaper was published, it immediately caused quite a stir in China.

Although during this period, the Chinese people's understanding of the basketball professional league is not clear, and the domestic CBA league has not yet been prepared, but Stern's efforts over the years have still had a certain effect, and many viewers who like sports have watched the NBA game broadcast on the CCTV Sports Channel, and have heard of Jordan's name.

And in 94 years, the Chinese men's basketball team made history and won the eighth place in the World Championships, which also made Huaguo basketball more and more into the field of vision of the Chinese people, and everyone was very proud that Huaguo could have a player who played in the NBA, and they also began to pay attention to Wang Feng's name.

In this era of restricted information dissemination, the only way for ordinary people to obtain information from the outside world is television and radio, and they did not wait long, just one day later, the CCTV sports channel reported the news that Wang Feng had cut 35 points.

"This Wang Feng is very powerful, he can actually score 35 points."

Although most Chinese fans are relatively ignorant of the NBA and basketball rules at this time, a simple comparison can still be done.

According to the situation of various basketball games in the past, a player who can score more than 30 points in a game is quite a good player.

Wang Feng can score 35 points in the NBA, and his strength is of course very strong.

"I don't know who is more powerful than Hu Weidong and this Wang Feng?"

This question is being asked by more than one person.

Because many people don't realize that there is a dimensional difference between NBA and Chinese basketball at this time.

Of course, this does not include the Chinese men's basketball team and the Basketball Association.

Having played against the United States team more than once, they are well aware of the huge difference in strength between the two sides.

After the game with the Pacers, Director Zhang immediately called the Huaguo men's basketball team to report the situation, and suggested that Wang Feng must be absorbed into the men's national basketball team.

Coach Zhang's suggestion was immediately taken seriously by the Basketball Association.

It's not just because of Wang Feng's strength, the Basketball Association also has their ideas.

Allowing Wang Feng to join the Huaguo men's basketball team will not only improve the overall strength of the Huaguo men's basketball team, but also allow Wang Feng's existence to establish a bridge between Huaguo and the NBA, which can help the Huaguo Basketball Association send more young players to the NBA for training and growth.

It's just that, due to the limitations of the times, the Huaguo men's basketball team in this period has all kinds of ingredients that are easy to say 404, not that it is as simple as adding people to add people, so it is not a matter of one or two days to implement this matter.

Far away on the other side of the ocean, the Knicks have already started their journey to the next game.

On January 13, the Knicks took on the Milwaukee Bucks on the road.

It wasn't a close encounter.

Although the Bucks have a new No. 1 pick, Glenn. Robinson, nicknamed the big dog, also had a perfect rookie season, averaging 21.9 points, 6.4 points and 2.5 assists per game, but the overall strength of the team is still much inferior to the Knicks.

But there is one thing worth mentioning in this game, and that is Wang Feng's start.

From his debut in the game against the Timberwolves on January 8 to his first start on January 13, Wang Feng only took 2 games and 5 days.

As an undrafted player, that speed is nothing short of a miracle.

But when you think about it, it's not surprising.

The Knicks have been short of qualified forward players, and they have always been the main interior player of Charles. Oakley came to guest appear as the team's starting small forward.

Wang Feng scored 21 points in his debut and 35 points in the second game.

As long as Riley is not blind, he knows that Wang Feng is a better player for the team's starting small forward position than Oakley.

Moreover, what Wang Feng said when he faced the media before did really put some pressure on Riley.

Wang Feng played so well, and at the same time said that if he had more playing time, he would perform better, in this case, if Riley did not give Wang Feng a chance, which caused the Knicks to lose, the black pot would have to be buckled on Riley's head.

As a result, Wang Feng, who started the battle for the first time, directly faced Glenn. Robinson.

This matchup is very interesting, because although Wang Feng did not participate in the draft, strictly speaking, he is also a rookie in 94.

Therefore, as the champion of 94 years, Glenn. Robinson stands tall above all the '94 rookies, and it's like a chasm compared to a player like Wang Feng who didn't participate in the draft.

This is also evident in the salary.

Wang Feng relied on Oakley's perfect performance to get an annual salary of 1.45 million in the Knicks. Robinson's rookie contract with the Bucks is worth $2.9 million a year in the first year.

But when the two were in the same position, the result was a big surprise.

The dignified champion Lang Glenn. Robinson had no resistance in the face of Wang Feng, and was completely blown up by Wang Feng's unilateral blowout.

He scored 13 points on 5-of-17 shooting, shooting less than 30 percent from the field and committing seven turnovers.

On the other hand, Wang Feng played 28 minutes and didn't have a lot of time, but he shot 8 of 14, including 4 of 6 three-pointers, and scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.

The two made a judgment, and the difference in strength made Wang Feng seem to be more like a champion than Glenn. Robinson.

After the game, at the press conference, Glenn. Robinson was helpless in the face of reporters' difficulties.

"Why do you say that guy is the same as me? Can't you see his age? He's at least 5 years older than me, which is also called the same period? On the field, he was more composed and skilled than me, and I was convinced of losing to him. ”
