Chapter 187 Media Meeting

When Xu Nuo and two staff members dispatched by the NBA office in charge of Xu Nuo's security work respectively stepped into the venue of the media meeting in Amway Arena, where the 2012 Orlando All-Star Game was held, they immediately There are countless flashing lights "chacha" in front of Xu Nuo.Wearing a Nike sportswear, Xu Nuo smiled and waved to the media reporters in the venue, although Xu Nuo has not yet adapted to the atmosphere here.

The next day, the Orlando All-Star Game will hold the Rookie Challenge, the first event in the All-Star Game, and superstars from all over the world have also begun to arrive in Orlando, but these have not affected the news media's commitment to Attention. NBA officials promised to hold a media meeting that only belonged to Xu Xu, and it can be seen how popular Xu Nuo is in the eyes of the news media in the NBA.You know, it is very rare to be able to hold a personal media meeting during the NBA All-Star Game, and only a superstar like Kobe Bryant will do this.However, this media meeting really only belonged to Xu Nuo.

Xu Nuo had just sat down on the black chair, and before he could relax his body, the host of the media meeting signaled to Xu Nuo that the media meeting would start soon.Xu Nuo nodded lightly with a smile, and then unnaturally faced the media reporters below.

"Okay, the media meeting will start now!" The host said, "All the media reporters at the scene are invited to ask questions, and I promise to answer them one by one."

Xu Nuo scratched his head, waiting for questions from the media reporters on the scene.In fact, now Xu Nuo's heart has flown to the Amway Center basketball court not far from the media meeting site, where Xu Nuo will soon have a training session before the Rookie Challenge.

But the various voices at the media meeting pulled Xu Nuo's thinking back to reality, Xu Nuo hurriedly focused and listened carefully to the first question asked by the media reporter.

"As a rookie player, you participated in two competitions of the All-Star Game at the same time, the Rookie Challenge and the Skills Challenge. Although there are entertainment elements in these two competitions, I still want to know that you participated in two competitions at the same time. Will there be any pressure?" A thin middle-aged man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses asked and promised.

"Pressure?" Xu Nuo frowned and said, "If we still have any pressure during the All-Star Game, then what are we going to do with this All-Star Game?" After a pause, he continued.

"The All-Star Game is a game mainly for entertainment. I come here, I only hope that I can have fun and play well in the Rookie Challenge." Xu Nuo said, "As for the Skills Challenge, I will do my best , It’s best to be able to win the championship, if you can’t win it, it doesn’t matter.”

"You've had a great season this season, and I think everyone sitting here will agree with that, but such a good performance doesn't make you a real All-Star, so will you Do you feel a little regretful?" A young man asked.

"It is a great honor for every NBA player to be selected for the All-Star Game. Every player hopes to be selected for the NBA All-Star Game, including me of course." Xu Nuo replied, "This I did play better in some games this season, but there are more than 400 players in the entire NBA league, and there are many players who performed better than me. I think they are more eligible to be selected for the NBA All-Star than me, so I didn’t feel that way. I feel regretful. And I am still young, and I still have opportunities in the future."

"I noticed that the sportswear on your body is Nike. Does this mean that you are about to sign a contract with Nike and become the spokesperson for its sports products?" A female reporter stood up and asked.

"Uh..." Xu Nuo looked down at his black sportswear and said with a smile, "In fact, when I was playing in China, I signed a contract with Nike and became its brand spokesperson. I think, in Let’s not talk about it too much in this situation.”

"There are three young point guards who have emerged this season. Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Ricky Rubio of the Minnesota Timberwolves and you are the three of you on the current rookie list. Top three on this leaderboard. As the season progresses, do you think you've surpassed them? Can you beat them and become the best rookie of the season? After all, you're on a team that's bigger than the Cleveland Cavaliers and Minnesota The Timberwolves have a good record." A young female reporter asked.

Xu Nuo raised his head and glanced at the female reporter, with a smile on his face.

"This question sounds very interesting." Xu Nuo said with a smile, "Whether it is Kyrie Irving or Ricky Rubio, they are very good basketball players and very good point guards. In this season , I went head-to-head with Kyrie Irving and Ricky Rubio, we both played very well in the game. I don't think I have surpassed them now, they are still my goal. And As for the award for the best rookie award, I haven't thought that I will get this award until now. I think whether it is Kyrie Irving or Ricky Rubio, they are more qualified and capable than me. to this award."

"Now your Indiana Pacers are ranked second in the entire Eastern Conference, and your ranking has been maintained in the top three in the Eastern Conference. Such a record makes everyone feel bright. Do you think it is because of your Joining will greatly increase the team's strength? How far do you think your team can go in this year's playoffs?" A seemingly very experienced media reporter asked.

Hearing this question, Xu Nuo couldn't help frowning. "This season we have many good players joining the team, such as David West, OJ Mayo, Rudy Fernandez, George Hill and DeMar DeRozan, etc., and The old players who were originally in the Indiana Pacers also played better. I think we can play such a good season this season because of our entire team, including our great head coach Larry Brown. The result of hard work, not because of me alone. I just try my best to make the contribution I should make for the team."

Having said that, Xu Nuo paused, said "I'm sorry" softly, took a sip of the mineral water on the table in front of him, and then continued.

"As for this year's playoffs, I think it's too early to talk about it now." Xu Nuo continued, "After all, there are still more than 20 regular season games after the All-Star Game. A few regular season games, and then we can consider the playoffs. Of course, if we can reach the playoffs, we have only one goal, and that is the NBA championship! I think we can definitely do it!"

The promise caused a small commotion in the venue of the media meeting, and many people gathered together to whisper to each other.In the eyes of the media reporters at the scene, it seemed a bit too arrogant to promise to say such a thing as a rookie player.But of course the reporters can't criticize anything about it, it's just that Kobe Bryant's words seem to be more pleasing to the ear.

Seeing that the commotion at the scene had not subsided, the host had no choice but to tap on the table lightly, and the venue gradually quieted down.He promised himself that he didn't regret what he just said, but sat on the chair without saying a word, and continued to wait for the reporters at the scene to ask questions.

However, after a few minutes, the reporters at the scene still did not raise any new questions, and the host had no choice but to say: "Are there any new questions? If there are no new questions, then this media meeting will come to an end here. "

Finally, a male reporter with a beard and a very strong appearance stood up. "We all realized that this media meeting will only be played by you as a player. The players in the media meeting are just superstars like Kobe Bryant, or players with great influence, and you are just a rookie player. I don’t know what your own view on this matter is? "The bearded reporter said so.

Immediately, the reporters at the scene became nervous, and hurriedly put their fingers on the keyboard of the laptop to record, for fear of missing any word.Xu Nuo bowed his head and thought for about five seconds before answering this extremely difficult question.

"It is my honor to be able to hold a media meeting that belongs only to me, and I am also very happy to see you at this media meeting." Xu Nuo said, "As the reporter Mr. said just now, Those who can hold a personal media meeting are superstars with great influence like Kobe Bryant. Of course, I can’t compare with Kobe Bryant now, but I believe that one day, I will be able to Reaching the heights of Kobe Bryant. Every day I am in the NBA, I am making history!"

After Xu Nuo finished speaking, the venue was silent, and everyone was too surprised to speak.In their eyes, Xu Nuo was already crazy to the point of madness.This time, no one continued to ask questions, and the host of the media meeting had to announce that the media meeting was over.

Xu Nuo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up from the black chair, turned around and walked towards the exit of the venue.Xu Nuo didn't care about the impact his answer had on the hearts of the reporters at the scene. Xu Nuo only knew that a training session that would definitely be very relaxing and enjoyable was waiting for him not far from the venue of the media meeting. .
