The conference was very successful and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

The New York media, known for its viciousness, did not block Li Zhen, who had just arrived, and did not even raise any specific questions.

After all, the current situation in New York is too bad. Apart from David Lee, none of the entire team is a normal person they recognize. They hope that Li Zhen, a talented and talented student, can enhance the team's image.

The only irritating question in the audience was probably the one put forward by a New York Times reporter: Did you choose to wear a No. 8 jersey to express dissatisfaction with Kobe Bryant? Eddie Griffin previously claimed that you were suppressed by Kobe Bryant's jealousy.

Li Zhen shook his head very helplessly. He said: "I have a very good relationship with Kobe. I chose the No. 8 jersey because the number 8 is a representative of China, and I hope to make more wealth in New York.

Amount ... get rich?

Then, the reporter started to tease him: "Do you need to find a financial adviser from Wall Street? They had some criticisms about your purchase of a large number of Apple stocks some time ago."

"Oh. No. I still like my stocks of consciousness. I don't like to read all kinds of complicated financial statements. If a company appears in my dream, I will buy it. This is my way of investing."

Hahahaha!

The scene was full of laughter and joy.

It is really the first time in history that stocks have flowed through the stream of consciousness.

"I really hope you don't go bankrupt before the end of your career." The next Swift inserted, he said very seriously, with good wishes.

But ... this sentence fully exposed his emotional intelligence and IQ.

Okay, for his own initiative. The reporters finally remembered another player sitting here, Mr. Swift.

The Knicks' team reporter asked him: "How do you think about joining the Knicks?"

"I will honor my talents here, and I will make the world look at each other. Believe me, I am the hope of the Knicks' revival!" Said the dunk beast, covering his chest with an oath.

amount….

The reporters off the stage thought he was a little too serious.

The No. 2 pick who joined the league in 2000 is now 28 years old. How much talent can he have in the same year as McGrady?

This is not a joke!

In order to avoid harming the newcomer, the reporter from New York Television began to ask some questions about gossip female stars.

Subsequently, they also gave the ranking given by the Knicks reporter. In the rankings, Elizabeth Olsen topped the list, then Ashley Olsen, then Hilary Duff. Next up is Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan.

What Li Zhen felt most about this list was: The fans in New York played really well. You sell two sisters together, it ’s not good. ,

Of course, this problem, he just took it lightly.

Next, Isaiah Thomas, who accompanied the press conference, stressed: "We never planned to let Bruce start from the bench. He has already proved himself an elite player. He is already an unbreakable All-Star starting player. . "

Um ... yes.

As Li Zhen moved from the west to the east, he immediately became the player with the second highest vote in the east. And far away from the second place is far, far away, he already has more than 680,000 votes, two days before he beat McCollor's picture so that other people skyrocketed, coupled with the transfer to New York, mobilized the Knicks fans' desire to vote. He is now only tens of thousands of votes away from LeBron James.

As for Mr. Arenas, who had dominated the starting position of the defender before ... It was an innocent fall to the cliff.

Although it is not a problem for him to be voted into the All-Star lineup with his performance this season, starting and substituting is an honor that cannot be smoothed after all.

And Arenas, the famous nba ’s famous big mouth, has already made a big speech: "This is the shame of nba! The Knicks think they have picked up the baby, and soon they will eat their own evil. Bruce will never be able to save Nick. Hero of Sri Lanka. "

Obviously, keeping Agent Zero shut up is a difficult thing. Even if Li Zhen killed him in person at Staples last time.

No matter what cold water Arenas is splashing or eating sour grape skins. Now at least in the Knicks coaching staff has determined that Li Zhen will quickly rise to the top, he will become the new core of New York's outside.

And, after the press conference, Isaiah Thomas personally promised Li Zhen: "Next, we have to match your rhythm to play a fast attack."

Li Zhen thought about it, but did not answer. He knew Thomas's thoughts. Thomas said that he meant to play fast offense in order to support the young.

The current status of the Knicks is almost the same as that of the mud. The Madison Garden home team has accumulated the most garbage contracts in the league's locker room. It is extremely unlikely that they will be allowed to run quickly.

In fact, during the long flight from Los Angeles, Li Zhen has carefully checked the video of his future teammates.

The Knicks' current lineup is roughly divided into two types: the first is the high-paying low-energy junk contracts, Stephen Marbury, Steve Francis, Eddie Curry, Quentin Richardson, Jerome James. These five take away 80% of the team's salary, but the output power does not match the salary. Although Eddy Curry has averaged 19.5 points and 8.1 rebounds per game this season, but ... this can't hide his incompetence on the defensive end.

The other is child labor contracts that are inexpensive, strong and durable, and occasionally work wonders in a game. Represented by Channing Frye, Nate Robinson, David Lee, Renaldo Balkman, but ... they are all functional players and do not have the ability to kill the Quartet with the ball in singles. Therefore, the ball is still in the hands of Stephen Marbury and Eddy Curry.

In addition, Jamal Crawford and Calais ’Jeffries are rare contracts for the team. They all have unbeatable wages and also output competent performance.

However, because the team's salary structure is an asymmetric inverted pyramid system, it is no wonder that the record is bad and no one can match.

Imagine when you walk into the team with ambition. Every day, a few big guys stood up and talked about the wind and snow, making the locker room sullen. The head coach and the leaders on the bright side attacked each other. The outside media scolded every day. Who still wants to be aggressive? It would be nice to be able to produce silt without staining.

...

Li Zhen walked into the team's training ground at 2:30 in the afternoon. Accompanied by Isaiah Thomas, Li Zhen had a first meeting with his teammates.

There are no imaginary swords, and there are no opposite plots in TV series.

Everyone is an adult, and all of them just take this as a job ... even some players don't take this as a job anymore.

For example, Stephen Francis, who is called the boss of the Chinese fan by the Chinese fans, is now skinny, with dark circles drooping. It doesn't look like an athlete anymore: Frankly speaking, Li Zhen felt very sorry to see him like this. Francis was such a righteous man at that time, and his physical fitness was so strong that he dared to go to the dunk contest to compete with Vince Carter for the championship.

Interestingly, Francis was very enthusiastic when he saw Li Zhen. Even in Chinese: Hello!

This caused Li Zhen to laugh for the first time since entering the training ground, because Francis' handshake and the tone of saying hello are so funny.

Laughter brought everyone closer.

After shaking hands with the players one by one, Li Zhen finally came to Stephen Marbury.

Marbury did not refuse, and even slammed Li Zhen into the chest, and said in his ear: "Boy, I watched your game when you were in high school. You beat my alma mater. Funny rich children killed my alma mater !!! "

"But I was killed by the team led by your cousin. We only got the runner-up in New York State that year." Li Zhen sincerely counted the history.

Marbury smiled slightly and said, "Don't be provoked by those media. I don't hate you. You look more pleasing than the self-righteous Isaiah Thomas."

This actually surprised Li Zhen. Because now almost all New York media are promoting a trend, that is: Bruce Lee is about to replace Stephen Marbury.

However, Marbury actually told himself that he did not consider himself an intruder.

He was quite calm.

Li Zhen likes to deal with calm people.

Even contradictions are easier to resolve.

It only took about 30 minutes for Li Zhen to get acquainted with all the players.

This is beyond the expectation of Isaiah Thomas, who originally thought it was difficult for high-quality students with good academic performance to be integrated into this group of 'Street Fighters'.

But now it seems that Li Zhen has a natural conversation with David Lee, who is also a famous celebrity, or with street artillery Francis and Marbury. You can see that he does not delve into the ‘women ’s posture, flying leaf tricks’ and so on, but everyone accepted him.

And also willing to make some jokes with him.

"Hey, Quentin. You have to learn from Bruce how to get along with female stars!"

Eddie Curry soon took the team's three-point shooter Quentin Richardson out to tease, because Quentin Richardson once frantically pursued 'Kobe Bryant's first love', but also a singer and actor in the entertainment industry, a black woman Celebrity. It even cost millions to buy a diamond ring, but it took less than a year to divorce.

Quentin Richardson looked embarrassed and even laughed at himself: "I don't have his musical talent. You have to know that with my appearance, golf skills, and Bruce's musical talent, I can even sleep in a sweet cloth Lanny or Beyonce. "

amount….

This sentence is unmanageable.

However, another new member, Mr. Swift, who was left aside for a long time, took it bravely. He said seriously: "I think your appearance is not as handsome as Bruce, and your skills are not as good as him."

amount…….

The place where I was still very familiar immediately calmed down and was awkward on the spot!

Emotional intelligence.

Beep! !

Isaiah Thomas quickly blew the whistle and summoned the players to do the whole training.
