Chapter 071: The Popular Lakers
Li Ze's two large pairs caused quite a stir in America, and the most intuitive feeling is the continuous interviews of media reporters one litter after another.
Except for Durant, who was brought to the press conference by Coach Brooks, most of the teammates in the locker room will be interviewed a few words.
That's the benefit of winning, and if you're just a belly team, no one in the NBA will care about you, just look at the number of games the Thunder have broadcast live across the United States this season.
It's only 4 games... The media say that Durant is an epoch-making player, but if you fish every year, the audience won't buy it, and the NBA league won't give you more exposure.
There are a lot of talented players, but there are very few who are talented and can make money for the league, and the superstars who can make money are the treasures of the league, look at the Lakers' national live broadcast in the United States, 42 games!
There's no comparison, and there's no comparison between the city and Los Angeles ball city, which is why the local fans are so excited after the Thunder win.
Director Zhang saw that a bunch of reporters were waiting for him, and he simply asked two questions before giving up his position, he knew that Li Ze needed more recognition from the media on América's side, which would allow him to better integrate into the NBA.
Li Ze also gave Director Zhang an apologetic look, he really didn't expect so many reporters to come to him to join in the fun.
For all kinds of endless problems, Li Ze is a good coach, a good teammate, and tired...
It wasn't until a female reporter with big blond hair and a big heart suddenly asked a question that Li Ze's official routine was interrupted.
"Kayce, your single has reached No. 3 on the Billboard this week, have you ever thought about focusing on music in the future? Personally, I really like you! ”
As he spoke, the blonde reporter also threw a wink at Li Ze.
"Well, I don't pay much attention to the music, I'm currently focused on the regular season, and of course, thanks to your support, I'll be releasing another single for Christmas."
Li Ze was stunned for a moment before he began to answer this question, this girl doesn't look like a good person at first glance, she must be hungry for his body!
The media reporters were all dog-nosed, and when they saw that there was a new hot spot, everyone became more enthusiastic, and finally the team staff forcibly pulled Li Ze away to get rid of those clingy reporters.
Director Zhang looked at it inexplicably on the side, what is this, but among the accompanying staff, a sister suddenly thought of something.
"The single is in third place on the Billboard? I'll have to check it out this time..."
After dealing with reporters, it was not too early, and trainer Meg was meticulously conducting post-game physiotherapy for Li Ze.
"Alright, Meg, it's late, I'll do the rest of the work myself, and I don't have to be so particular about it here in Russia."
Li Ze is very satisfied with the work of the training team, so on the Russian side, he will also try to let everyone rest as much as possible.
"Kayce, you have to make it a habit, and we take the money, after every game, physiotherapy is a must, you can't rely too much on the body's recovery, believe that science is the best choice!"
Meg knew Li Ze's physical talent very well, which made his job a lot easier, but he didn't want to relax his requirements for Li Ze because of this.
"OK, you guys are professional, I trust you." Li Ze immediately signaled himself to obey the arrangement.
......
After the full set of physiotherapy procedures were completed, after Li Ze drove home, it was already midnight, and after arriving home, he simply took a bath and collapsed directly on the big bed.
Thinking of the Lakers who will face in the next game, Li Ze also has some expectations:
"Black Mamba, it's time to feel the gap with the superstar."
After slowly falling asleep, Li Ze came to the dream training space, and saw a new hint in the achievement room on the control panel, and he was happy that a new badge should appear in 16 assists.
Entering the achievement room, a new bronze badge appeared in front of him, and Li Ze immediately stepped forward to tap to check the attributes.
Achievement badge [see stitch]: 6/50
Increased the likelihood of penetrating defences with difficult passes.
After Li Ze saw the attributes of this badge, he couldn't help but think of the effect of the combination of the two badges of [Bullet Passer] + [Seeing the Seam Needle].
"The data still has to be brushed, and the more you brush, the stronger it gets!"
Thinking of those many regular season games, Li Ze was very excited, and immediately devoted himself to the daily basic training with full vitality.
......
After the team's video session ended the afternoon the next day, Durant quietly came to Li Ze's side.
"Kayce, I heard that your stylist is very good, can you introduce me to it? I want to change the look. ”
Durant was afraid of being heard by other teammates, so he spoke quietly.
"No problem, star players do have to pay attention to their appearance, and Russell does a good job of that."
Li Ze said something against his will, the turtle's costume gradually became presumptuous, and the shape slowly became weird, I was really worried that one day he would go directly to women's clothing...
"No, no, no, I don't really like Russell's clothes, I saw some likes from Scarlett on Twitter, she doesn't seem to like black outfits, so I have to change it."
Durant began to raise eyebrows as Scarlett spoke.
Li Ze's face is strange, he thinks that Scarlett is most likely also a woman who looks at her face, Durant wants to attract the other party by her appearance, it is estimated that it will definitely be no fun, and it may be better to go directly to the American knife.
"Kevin, I'd better introduce you to some Latino girls, all of them are hot!" Jeff Green interjected suddenly.
"Shet! You're eavesdropping on our conversation, you have to keep it a secret! Durant was taken aback by the presence of Jeff Green.
"No problem, next time you go to the nightclub, you pay, I'll order the hottest girl!" The more Jeff Green talked, the happier he became.
The topic of the locker room gradually became inappropriate for children, and Li Ze couldn't help sighing:
"In addition to training, it is a pickling girl, looking at such a rotten life, it is indeed very wonderful~"
On November 3, Li Ze saw the influence of the Lakers, and there were a lot of media surrounding them before the game.
"Do you think the Lakers can win a championship this year?" Turtle looked at each other with some envy, he had always wanted to play in Los Angeles.
"Then you have to ask us first, there is only one champion, and we can also win the championship!" Li Ze replied calmly.
"They're just more experienced, and I'm sure we'll have a chance this year!" Durant changed his look today and was full of confidence.
"Maybe we can win them once tonight!" Jeff Green also said with a smile.
Li Ze doesn't think that this year's Lakers team is inexplicable, their guard line is more stretched, and Fisher is basically relying on eye defense at present.
The atmosphere at Ford Center is even more lively today, as their home team takes on last year's champions.
Although everyone thought that there was a high probability of losing this game, the process of the game was also very important.
Not only the local fans were there, but the Lakers also had a lot of supporters who came with the team to cheer them on.
"What the hell is Kobe, look at this popularity, many fans are really coming away!" Director Zhang looked at the scene with a hot atmosphere and couldn't help but say directly.
"Today, we broadcast this game, the ratings have increased significantly, and Li Ze's fans have also increased a lot."
The accompanying staff specially asked about the data in the station, and found that the ratings had increased a lot, you must know that today is not the weekend.
"This is also a good thing, I hope Li Ze will play better and better, and it will be easy to produce such a player!" Director Zhang sighed.
......
In the Thunder locker room, head coach Brooks is making pregame arrangements.
"Kayce, try your best to defend on the defensive end today, and if the single defense is not good, call everyone in time to defend with the bag."
"I understand, Coach." Li Ze nodded, he started today, and it can be seen that the coaching staff is going all out at the beginning.
"Russell, attack the opponent's guard line more, keep your aggressiveness, and try to squeeze through the line as much as possible."
Turtle also signaled that he understood that he really wanted to win this match.
After the coaching staff arranged the tactics, everyone was waiting in the player tunnel to play, Durant felt that the atmosphere was more serious, and suddenly said:
"Guys, maybe it's time for us to come up with a pre-game slogan!"
As soon as the teammates heard this, they immediately became interested, and they discussed it in a mess, saying everything...
Li Ze hurriedly pulled the topic to prevent everyone from letting go of themselves:
"Otherwise, let's have a simple one first, 10,000, spit, crush, and tired of logging, shout first!"
When the teammates heard it, it was indeed okay, and everyone gathered in a circle and screamed.
Li Ze's face was a little strange after shouting,
"I always feel like this slogan is a little familiar, but I can't remember who used it..."
At this time, a manager who is often reversed suddenly sneezed,
"It's not easy to bring the Big Three, but fortunately I won a championship, and there will definitely be no shortage of jobs in the next ten years..."
