From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 13 discusses on a huge scale, #Chinese young people should be as confident as the rivers and lakes? #
After the farce in the locker room was almost settled, Du Feng took Yi Jianlian and Jianghu to the post-match press conference.

Sure enough, as soon as the press conference came up, the reporter's biggest concern was not the Guangdong team's big victory, but Wilms' injury.

"Coach Du Feng, how is Mr. Wilms' injury? Is it possible for him to come back and continue to participate in the competition?" Du Feng just sat down on the chair, and the reporter asked impatiently.

Du Feng shook his head with regret and said: "Unfortunately, according to the information we have received, we have to announce that he may not be able to return in this finals!!"

Hearing this, the eyes of the local reporters in XJ lit up...

"However, we will not give up this game. Even without foreign aid, we believe that we still have the ability to win. I believe that the team will continue to move forward under the leadership of Ah Lian and Xiao Jiang. Our goal remains the same, and it is still to win the championship. champion!!"

After interviewing Du Feng, the reporter locked his target in Jianghu.

A female reporter from Tencent asked Jianghu: "Hello, Xiaojiang, you have performed very well in the last two games. In the past two games, you were the team's highest scoring player. In the next game, you will lack Wilms. The team's top scorer, do you still have the confidence to continue leading this team forward?"

Jianghu rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, leaned into the microphone and said:
"First of all, I have to give Wilms the credit, he puts everything on the field, he always does. Considering where we are now, we have to give it our all and give 110 per cent every game. Playing hard and he gave 150%. He did everything he could to make us win. His performance drove all of us. He is the kind of player we need~!"

"Wims has always had that mentality. He is constantly asking for the ball, breaking through with the ball, attacking the basket aggressively, being active on the defensive end, constantly defending, grabbing rebounds, he is the key, He's a phenomenal player and has had a huge impact on our team."

"Unfortunately, his injury has become a fact. In the next game, we must play without him."

"We have to have the mentality of the next guy to step up. Even without him, we still have to get our mission done, focus on the scouting report made by the coaching staff, and focus on attacking the opponent's weaknesses."

"In the absence of Wilms, Lian Ge and I must try to play a little more aggressively and try to fill the gap. Because he can bring so much to the game, everyone is working hard to make up for it."

"But I believe that as long as we defend carefully and execute tactics carefully, our talent is enough for us to win any opponent!!!"

The reporter nodded and continued:

"You're very positive in your speech, I can feel your objectivity and confidence!!"

"There is another question. Our special commentator of Tencent Sports, the famous basketball expert Mr. Yang Yi made a comprehensive comparison between you and XJ in the game. They think that the Guangdong team is now a team with zero foreign aid. He You think it is impossible for an all-China team to win two more victories in the hands of two foreign aids plus Zhou Qi and Li Gen, what do you think about this?"

Hearing that it was Yang Yi who said it, Jiang Hu was not surprised.

This guy has always been an idiot, bragging whoever is good, seemingly objective but has no bottom line...

After watching football for so many years, the world has already seen him clearly! !

However, Jianghu felt that Yang Yi did not have any malicious intentions. He just didn't trust CBA players. When Jianghu was a fan, he also thought that CBA players were a group of guys who only know how to make trouble...

"Teacher Yang Yi?? As a senior in the basketball world, I respect him very much. He thinks that the level of our domestic players is limited. I can also understand. After all, since Brother Yao and Brother Lian, we have long been at a distance visible to the naked eye. The NBA is getting farther and farther away!!"

"But we don't care what he thinks of us, because I have confidence in my own strength, and I have confidence in Liange's strength. I believe that the combination of the two of us, combined with the coach's tactics and our overall defense, we can do well in the CBA. Kill any opponent!!"

"He thinks that the all-China class is destined to be inferior to the team with foreign aid??"

"He just thinks that we Chinese can't play basketball well. I think he's right to question."

"That can only show that the competitive level we have shown in the past has really disappointed them. It is understandable for them to think this way!!"

"The overall strength of our national basketball team is indeed inferior to many countries. In the past, we were able to dominate in Asia. After Australia entered the Asian Basketball Federation, our dominance in Asia has also begun to shake!!"

"But I still believe that even without foreign aid, we can still win the championship against a team with two foreign aids. The Chinese can play basketball well. We are the country that has won the NBA champion."

"In the next game, I will use my strength and performance to tell all the fans who love and support the Guangdong team that although I am a Chinese player, I am the strongest foreign aid in the CBA!!!"

"After winning the championship, I will personally ask Teacher Yang Yi if I am convinced!!!"

After saying this, Jiang Hu put the microphone aside, and then left the press conference without looking back.

"Wow~"

The audience was in an uproar, stunned! !

Everyone was frightened by Jianghu's words! !
Crazy! !What is he saying? ? ?His own strength surpasses all foreign aid? ?Doesn't that mean that he thinks he is CBA No.1? ?

Even without the team's most important player, his goal is still to win the championship! !Then I have to ask in person if the person who questioned him is convinced? ? ?
"Is this kid too arrogant?? Does he really think so?"

"It's too arrogant. Do young people look down on people like this after two good games?"

"Hey, I still don't read enough books. It's not a good thing for young people to be too impetuous, too high-profile!!"

"I don't know if it's high-profile or not. I only know one thing. This kid is going to be hot now!!"

"This kid must be on fire, but I don't know how he will be hacked if he speaks such cruel words in the end~!"

"You look at the problem too extreme. I think it is a good thing for young people to have confidence. We should not dampen their self-confidence!!"

"Yeah, there are a few people in the CBA who dare to speak like that. If they dare to speak harshly, it shows that they really have the strength..."

The reporters in the audience were discussing and arguing endlessly, some thought Jianghu was arrogant, and some admired Jianghu's character.

But no one took Jianghu's words seriously...

Even if they have a little recognition of Jianghu, they still have a deep-rooted belief that how can the strongest player in the CBA be a local player...

But what they didn't know was that Jiang Hu was telling the truth.

He is not only the strongest player in the CBA at the moment, but even the strongest player who has played in the Chinese professional league (when Yao Ming was in China, his ability value was not as good as the current Jianghu).

In the next game, Jianghu is destined to shock them...

................................................

2017 4 Month 11 Day.

DZ City, GD Province, DZ City Gymnasium.

Time passed quickly, only three days later, the match day of the CBA League Finals came again. This time, the venue of the match was the home court of the Guangdong team.

In the past three days, a huge news happened in the basketball world.

Then Jianghu, a Guangdong player who is facing the finals, let go of his rhetoric after the fifth game of the finals, thinking that he is the strongest player in the CBA, and even the strongest foreign aid.

His interview news and videos once appeared on Weibo's hot search No. 7 after the game. A young man who was only 18 years old said such words, which caused a huge controversy among people.

On Hupu Sports, even the popularity of the CBA has directly surpassed the NBA in the past few days.

After all, the NBA is at the end of the season at this moment, and the rankings of the respective playoff teams have basically been determined. There are no games worthy of attention. On the contrary, the remarks of Jianghu seem to be more interesting than NBA games.

On the Internet, people are constantly arguing and arguing about the world.

The point of their dispute is that although Jianghu has released harsh words, it seems that he is not aimless.

Those who support Jianghu believe that in the past two games, Jianghu, who scored 34 points in one game and 47 points in the other, averaging 40 points and 60% shooting, is qualified to say such a thing, because he is not unfounded Bragging, but there are achievements there.

Although the CBA is rubbish, it is the best league in China after all, isn't it?
Those who oppose Jianghu think that Jianghu is only good in the past two games. The samples he played are too few to prove that he is the strongest player. He needs to play more great games before he can say such a thing .

But in any case, the arena is indeed popular, and the popularity has reached the point where it is out of the circle.

Because on the first day after the game, this issue was only discussed by people in the basketball circle.

Until a big V internet celebrity on Weibo joined the discussion and criticized Jianghu as "blind self-confidence, arrogant, self-styled, and watching the sky from the bottom of a well, this is the root of evil in the soul of most Chinese people!!" After that...

What people discuss has begun to change. What they discuss is no longer the performance in the arena, but the moral and quality aspects.

The issues discussed mainly revolve around:

"Young people in China should learn from Jianghu and be as confident as him!!"

"Chinese young people should not learn from Jianghu, because he is blindly confident!!"

This kind of discussion finally went out of the circle completely. Should #中国青年人 be as confident as Jianghu? The topic of # came to Weibo hot search No.1.

Players, athletes from all walks of life, film and television stars, and well-known figures from all walks of life came over to join this heated discussion.

This issue has risen from the originally narrowly influential sports level to the hugely influential social level.

Affected by Jianghu, the upcoming CBA Finals has naturally attracted widespread attention from all walks of life.

In these two days, any news about Jianghu has a huge amount of hits...

There is no doubt that the rivers and lakes are on fire...

Just like Xiaoshenyang and Liu Qian in 2009, Jianghu became popular all over the country within two days. Many people who don’t pay attention to basketball also know the name Jianghu. Everyone wants to see whether he is arrogant or confident because of his strength. ...

The explosion of Jianghu on the Chinese Internet spread to the Internet in a very short period of time, and quickly attracted the attention of the NBA.

For the NBA, they haven't seen a basketball player with such a high degree of discussion in China for many years. Zhou Qi, the only one who had a draft hope before, has a degree of discussion compared with Jianghu, which is completely compared with the fireflies and the sun. not worth mentioning...

The management of each NBA team will never forget how Yao Ming made the owner of the Houston Rockets make a lot of money.

Undoubtedly, ambitious bosses wanted to take a bite of the cake in the Chinese market, so they sent their own scouts over to investigate.

The scouts of the NBA team don’t mind coming to China to take a look and see how much this “net celebrity player” in their eyes is...

Anyway, their job is to travel all over the world. The players in Europe, America and Australia who should pay attention have almost been paid attention to, but Asia has not been here much...

Even if the strength of Jianghu did not impress them, it seems to be a good choice for these scouts to travel to China, which has a history and culture of 5000 years, to see the scenery.

As a result, scouts from various NBA teams have packed their bags, traveled across the ocean, and headed straight to Guangdong, China...

How many scouts are there this time?It is no exaggeration to say that almost two-thirds of the teams have sent their own scouts.

Even the most popular teams in this lottery, the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, Dallas Mavericks, Minnesota Timberwolves, Sacramento Kings, and Orlando Magic.

Among them, the Houston Rockets even sent their own chief scout Dennis - Lindsay.

Obviously, they had tasted the sweetness from Yao Ming, and they wanted to repeat the miracle of that year again.

Although under the leadership of James Harden, they currently rank third in the Western Conference with 54 wins and 27, and the draft pick is not high, but this does not affect them putting Jianghu in their ideal list.

Because even after Jianghu played 47 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists in the last game, his draft predictions only went from 120 to 57. This pick is enough for the Rockets to easily win him.

………………

In the live broadcast room of Tencent Sports, the live broadcast between Guangdong and XJ has attracted more than 1400 million people to watch online before the game started.

You know, in Tencent Sports, even the ordinary playoffs of the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers only have about 500 million views.

With 1400 million views, only when these two teams meet in the finals can they achieve such popularity.

The players are warming up, and the commentators in the studio have already started their predictions and analysis.

The commentary has not changed this time. Tencent obviously knows that Yang Yi plus Jianghu is equal to the traffic code.

So the guests in this commentary are still Yang Yi and Duan Ran from the previous game.

Duan Ran: "Teacher Yang Yi, before the competition, let's talk about something else."

"What do you think about the explosion in Jianghu these two days??"

Yang Yi rolled his eyes and said, "I think Jianghu is a wonderful flower in our CBA, but his strength can impact the NBA!!"

"Facts don't lie. For today's game, many scouts came, all from the NBA. There are about [-] or [-] of them. They all came here for the rivers and lakes!!"

"Jianghu's last game is over, and he has made great progress in the latest draft prediction rankings, from the previous 120th to 57th, which means another Chinese player has entered the NBA's field of vision. "

"As a commentator who has been in the Chinese basketball industry for many years, I am very happy. Apart from Zhou Qi, there are No.2 players in our country who have the opportunity to be selected by the NBA this year!!"

"But I still can't agree with Jianghu's point of view. Even if he averaged 41 points per game in the past two games, I still can't think he is the strongest player in the CBA. After all, his opponent XJ team has a season average Adams with 30+, the Shanghai team has Fredette with an average of 37+8+4 per game in the season, the Jiangsu team has Brooks with an average of 36+8+4 per game, and the Shanxi team has Franklin with an average of 33+10+8 per game. The personal ability of these people exceeds what I said."

"But I admire him, I think he is very confident and brave, which is a good thing."

"We must know that self-confidence is an essential psychological quality for athletes to achieve good results. Those outstanding talented athletes, such as Jordan Kobe, are extremely confident."

"As a Chinese player, it is even more difficult to have such self-confidence. This is also a trait that other new-generation players do not have. Zhou Qi, Da Wang (Wang Zhelin), they don't have the self-confidence of Jianghu. Such self-confidence is not a bad thing. "

"So for what Jianghu said about leading the team to win the championship, I thought they were hopeless at the beginning, and now the Guangdong players have a 1% chance. His remarks of "XJ will win the championship, Guangdong has no chance" are like his apology!!"

"The warm-up is over, and this much-anticipated game is about to begin!!"

"How is Jianghu's performance?? Can the Guangdong team, which lacks foreign aid Wilms, be able to make a comeback? Let us follow the forward broadcast perspective to find out?"
