Chapter 100 [Kill to Chicago]

Chapter 100 [Kill to Chicago]

The "Chicago Tribune" report started a wave of "landing".

Before Pelinka and Zhou Zhongjing could respond, major websites and Twitter overwhelmingly reposted it, and many online media followed up and published a number of commentary articles——

"Luden's agent, Rob Pelinka, refused to try out the team after the tenth pick. Did he think that Luden was Wiggins and Parker? The website predicted that the Lakers would choose Luden with the No. 7 pick. If you It's Kupchak, would you do such a stupid thing?
"Look at what Kupchak said, 'I haven't met Luden yet, as for the No. 7 pick, I think we'll take someone the Lakers need'. Well, he declined so tactfully, I'm afraid It's to take care of Kobe and Pelinka's face."

At least five or six commentators cited the example of Yi Jianlian: "Do you remember Yi Jianlian in 2006? The Bucks wasted a No. 6 pick on Yi Jianlian. Any team that wants to choose Lu Deng should take it A good 'review' of that year's draft coverage."

After another half an hour, Yahoo God woj launched a very important review article, comprehensively analyzing the draft prospects of this year's rookies.

However, when predicting the draft pick, woj is not optimistic and ranks Lu Deng outside the 20th place.

It seems that everything is moving towards a situation that is not good for Lu Deng.

When Lu Deng and Gu Qingcheng came back from running, seeing Zhou Zhongjing's serious face, he asked, "Teacher Zhou, what's wrong?"

Zhou Zhongjing handed the phone to Lu Deng: "Look at this first, then talk about it."

Lu Deng took the phone, and laughed out loud after browsing it roughly.

"You can still laugh?" Zhou Zhongjing said angrily, "It's been so easy to improve the forecast ranking, it's all right now, and I'll go back to before liberation."

Lu Deng disagreed: "Don't be so pessimistic, the Chicago Tribune's speculation is reasonable. What I said, it is better to be upright than to cover up. Passing five levels depends on strength, not luck. Mr. Zhou, call Give the big radish and go to Chicago."

Zhou Zhongjing kept shaking his head, thinking to himself: Pelinka is right, Lu Deng is really too carried away!This is nba, this is not cuba.

Lu Deng accompanied Gu Qingcheng to have breakfast, and Zhou Zhongjing went to find Pelinka worriedly.

……

"Landden will participate in the Chicago Combine tryout."

News of Luden signing up for the Chicago Combine quickly spread throughout the league.

The Chicago Tribune's report first drew attention to this matter and quickly entered the hot search list.

Before Luden set off for Chicago, Pelinka specially held a press conference in Los Angeles, denounced the reporter of the Chicago Tribune for spreading rumors and slanders, and by the way, used a gun and a stick to scold Feigen for playing tricks behind his back, and revealed the secret:

"Behind the Chicago Tribune's report, the promoter was a well-known agent who once represented an unsuccessful Chinese player. The reason why he spread rumors to slander Lu Deng was because Lu Deng did not choose him as his agent, so he suffered a lot. If you don’t get grapes, you will say that the grapes are sour, and you will make up nonsense with unscrupulous reporters..."

Before Lu Deng signed up for the joint trial training, after Pelinka held a press conference, the public opinion reversed again, and many media and teams rekindled their expectations for Lu Deng.

The fire that should be extinguished is extinguished, the fire that should be burned is burned, and the next step is to watch the real joint trial training.How high is Lu Deng's level? It's a mule or a horse, and he is taken out for a walk.

……

The current Chicago joint trial training lasted for four days, and a total of 60 candidates were invited. It is the largest trial training before the official start of the draft.

Pelinka explained many details of the trial training to Landon in advance: "In addition to actual combat confrontation, each team pays more attention to the 'interview' link. Minutes of communication determine the upper limit of a player. It is by no means pure strength, but the player's character and desire to win. Therefore, in this trip, we must not only perform well on the field, but also shine in the interview session."

Pelinka said, and handed Lu Deng a handbook: "Nba interview questions."

Well, this is the second guidebook that Lu Deng has received. Last time, South China organized a "Hundred Questions" to "deal with" Pelinka.

This time, Pelinka conducted an interview with a hundred questions to deal with the managers of each team.

Similar to civil servant interviews, the handbook is full of empty phrases such as "team first", "winning above everything else", "basketball is life"... It turns out that chicken soup for test preparation is also popular in the United States.

Pelinka "Balabara" said all the way, it was almost like a "one-on-one" interview counseling.

The Gu family has already arranged for Lu Deng to stay in the Gu family's super five-star "Sheng Tang Hotel" in Chicago. Gu Qingcheng accompanied him all the way and served as Lu Deng's personal tour guide and bodyguard.

Fat Wei was so envious: "When will I meet such a beautiful woman who is willing to be my bodyguard, even if she is ugly, older and fiercer. I am also happy. Sigh, this is life, and money can't buy it. "

……

The day before the joint trial training, after thorough research, Lu Deng's team decided to hold the right to speak firmly in their own hands and hold another press conference.

Lu Deng deliberately arranged the interview location at the Shengtang Hotel, by the way, to promote the Shengtang and return Gu's family's kindness.

Lu Deng's team thought that many reporters might come, but what they didn't expect was that there were so many reporters.There are more than 10 local Chinese media in China and the United States.

More than 30 other radio stations, TV stations, Internet, newspapers, magazines, and Asian media from Japan, South Korea and other places came.Add up to more than 40.

No wonder, among all the rookies this year, who is the most topical?
Of course it was Lu Deng.

"White Hair Wars" became popular on the Internet; challenged Wall to share the same score; was placed by the "Chicago Tribune" before participating in the draft; and then officially announced that he would participate in the Chicago United Trial Training, and the agent released the wind: he will shock the world with a shocking performance ...

Looking at all rookies, who can attract the attention of all the media without playing a game.

Everyone wanted to see who Lu Deng was.

There was still more than an hour before the press conference, and almost all the media came to occupy their seats in advance, waiting for Lu Lu.

Among them was Wallace, the reporter of the Chicago Tribune who "smeared" Lu Deng.

He is an old fritter in the sports department of the Chicago Tribune. Most of the old fritters reporters are "thorny heads"?
In this press conference, he racked his brains to make things difficult for Lu Deng.

Wallace whispered to a reporter next to him: "'White hair war', 'not accepting joint trial training', are just gimmicks. I don't believe that an Asian defender can be compared with Wall. In my opinion, he is The other Yi Jianlian, I’m afraid he can’t even speak English. Believe it or not, I used slang to call him, so that his translator couldn’t understand. Just wait, I will embarrass him later.”

The reporter beside him nodded frequently.

The press conference was about to start, and Pelinka repeatedly told Lu Deng in the meeting room: "Be careful of falling into the trap of reporters asking questions, remember, you will lose your words if you talk too much, and never say two sentences to a question that can be answered in one sentence. Also, don't be irritated by reporters, don't say too crazy words, don't bow your head, don't pick your fingers, don't scratch your head, don't touch your nose..."

"Okay, okay, I see you are more nervous than me."

Pelinka said in his heart that it's no wonder I'm not nervous. Do you think these reporters are easy to deal with?
