Legend Raiders

Chapter 171 Interviews and Player Thoughts

Standing in front of Christine Laidlow, Qin Tao couldn't help but smirk at her twice.

As a loving couple, the current position is really a bit weird.

but.

One side is a professional player, the other side is also a professional host, and they still know that public and private are clear.

And Christine Laidlow didn't keep him waiting long. She gestured to the cameraman, smiled charmingly at Qin Tao, and asked, "Qin Tao, congratulations on your wonderful first half!"

Qin Tao smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your praise, we haven't worked hard enough, and we haven't played half the game yet."

Christine Laidlow wanted to stick her tongue out at him, but she held back and asked, "As the absolute core of the Rockets' second team, what do you think about your position in the team?"

The question of deja vu made Qin Tao secretly smile bitterly. The eldest girl in his family seemed to always want to find something to talk about.

But now he is no longer who he was at the beginning of the season. He pretended to think for a while, and then said seriously: "I have expressed my thoughts to all the media since the beginning of the season. To be a member of the Rockets, regardless of Whether I can play hard on the court or cheer for my teammates off the court, I will be grateful, and the Rockets gave me the opportunity to stand here."

Kristen Laidlow rolled her eyes at him covertly, and then asked the second question: "So, can you talk about the double-team dunk before? What did you think at the time?"

Qin Tao shrugged his shoulders: "The situation on the field was very interesting. As a rookie, I was double-teamed by the wealthy Lakers. You know the character of young people. When I really wanted to show myself, I took the risk With a huge risk of injury, this barely got the dunk, so."

Qin Tao suddenly looked at the camera: "Whether it's children watching TV or cute fans, please don't learn from me, because it's very easy to get hurt, and I don't think anyone will like the feeling of recuperating."

Christine Laidlow nodded with a smile. This answer is very good, and it has established a positive image of the NBA and itself in a small way.

Third question.

Kristen Laidlow's questioning is very skillful, but also very sharp: "Okay, the last question."

"As a rookie, are you ready for the All-Star Game?"

Grab a big grass!
Qin Tao immediately had a bitter look on his face. Is this his own girlfriend?

If so, isn't this girl's question too sharp?
With the current situation, even though Qin Tao already has the foundation to play in the main match, he really doesn't want to offend the rest of the candidates because of any of his remarks. After all, this is a gesture to provoke public anger!
But because the league and the team have regulations, it is absolutely impossible for him not to answer this question.

and so.

If you want to solve Ledlow's problem, you can only practice Tai Chi and talk nonsense.

"The All-Star is a grand event for all players and fans. I think Houston will not only host this All-Star perfectly, but also bring an unparalleled viewing experience to all the fans and players who come."

Qin Tao immediately turned into a promoter, and smiled at the camera: "And, as far as I know, the Rockets will throw eggs during the All-Star period, not just in the arena, but anywhere in the Toyota Center." , there may be items that can surprise everyone, so... are you ready to come to watch the game? Are you ready to cheer for your favorite players?"

your sister!

Christine Laidlow had a gloomy look on her face at the time, but Qin Tao didn't care what she was feeling, and ended with a goodbye, turned around and rushed to the player channel.

He believes it very much.

If he stayed here for an extra minute, he might be eaten alive by the annoyed Laidlow.

Go back to the locker room.

Qin Tao and his teammates laughed and laughed, and before they knew it, there was an inexplicable silence in the noisy locker room.

For them, the first half of the game was really a roller coaster ride.

The situation that seemed to suppress the Lakers originally, but with the internal troubles of the Lakers, not only did they not take the lead, but the Lakers seized the opportunity and showed some momentum.

Then there is the performance in the first half of the second quarter. Looking back now, it seems that they were lax and too obsessed with responding to the Lakers.

but.

These are not the only things they think about. As the season progresses, each of them clearly feels that the intensity of the competition is getting bigger and bigger.

This is like the survival of the fittest. If they can't maintain their state, then what awaits them will always be the first half of the bull market and the second half of the direct limit.

of course.

If you look at the goals set by the coaching staff, the team management, and even Leslie Alexander this season, they have not only achieved it well, but even exceeded it a lot.

But as the record got better and better, not to mention what the coaching staff and the team had in mind, but the players' own aspirations and goals had all risen to a level that they had never thought of before.

Playoffs!
Judging from the current record of the Rockets, as long as they don't collapse, they will at least advance to the playoffs as the top five in the Western Conference.

Even as long as they can stabilize their record, home court advantage is not a dream.

so.

When they get to a certain point, they will naturally consider something.

also.

Because the All-Star is coming, and with it is the most active moment of the free market.

According to the current performance of the Rockets, some people really can't guarantee that they can stay in the Rockets and finish this positive season for them.

such as.

At the beginning of the season, Bai Ade, who can play some playing time, and Quinn Cook, the former three-point champion.

Another example is Carlos Delfino, who was originally able to secure the main substitute position.

With the progress of the season and the stable performance of the team, they have basically lost their position and are almost about to fall out of the rotation.

even.

If the team is planning a big move, I am afraid that except for some core players, everyone else will become a bargaining chip in a certain transaction.

so.

On the other side of the Rockets' high spirits and courage, it is not all peaceful. The undercurrent has been quietly surging, and perhaps a small boat will be overturned in the next second.

unconsciously.

The halftime break is over.

Reminded by the staff, Qin Tao and other teammates all left calmly. No one mentioned anything about trading or ideas, and they all ran out of the player tunnel.
