Chapter 779： i am a basketball player

Unexpected harmony in the dressing room…

On January 2, Zuo Li, who came to the team's locker room early in the morning, had already prepared a draft to deal with the big guy's questions. After all, Time magazine's shot was really too loud.

Since the first day of the new year, Zuo Li has always been the most popular news personality, and he can be seen not only in the sports circle, social, financial and entertainment news.

Because of this Time Magazine's Person of the Year, Zuo Li has jumped from a successful basketball player to a benchmark of an era. Many people regard Zuo Li as a new youth leader and think he is a role model for the younger generation.

In this regard, Zuo Li declined to comment. Who was the last American youth idol? Zuckerberg?

Oh, it seems that historically he was the person of the year in 2010, tsk, thinking about it like this, I stole something from Zuckerberg without knowing it.

Looking at it this way, this award is not without merit, is it?

However, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong.

So how to keep the locker room from being affected by this storm... Zuo Li really lost some of his brains.

But I didn't expect that everything was normal in the locker room. The teammates were still chatting and bragging about girls, and they also took out Zuoli Times Weekly's annual person as usual to ridicule, which made Zuo Li feel relieved.

I don't know why, but maintaining the perfect dressing room atmosphere is enough.

During the training interval, Coach D'Antoni answered Zuo Li's doubts.

"Do you want to ask, how come they have no influence at all?"

"Uh, coach, you know?"

"Almost, don't forget, I'm also a member of the locker room." D'Antoni smiled. When he saw the news, Zuo Li was not the only one who was nervous.

"It's all your doing well. They all know that you are strong and have heard of your deeds more or less. They also know that you are the big boss of Monopoly, but to them, you are more of their teammates. Brother, you are a hard worker on the basketball court."

"I want to understand these, the rest is of course the clouds. After all, no matter who you are, you are just like them when you come here. First of all, you are a basketball player."

D'Antoni's words made Zuo Li suddenly realize that it is true that everyone in this society has their own identity, and everyone is more or less playing a different identity, but no matter what identity it is, whether it is a rich second generation or a business singer , mechanical engineers, firefighters, police, whatever, when you come here, like everyone else.

"Yes, I am a basketball player." Zuo Li said.

"That's right, so, leave him alone and continue to fight for our goals." D'Antoni patted Zuoli's shoulder... The shoulder couldn't be patted, so he patted Zuoli's arm.

"I understand the coach, but who said that." Zuo Li questioned, is De Shuai also a part-time master of chicken soup?

"Who else, of course, is your good brother." D'Antoni pointed to Curry who was training next door.

"This kid is not bad. I used to think that his talent was not good enough, and he couldn't make it into the climate, but now, I have to admit that your vision is better than mine. This guy is a piece of rough jade and is worth cutting..." D'Antoni said with emotion.

Who would have thought that Stephen Curry's growth would be so good. Maybe he is not very famous now, but in the future, he will definitely have the opportunity to become a new generation of superstars.

"Of course, this guy doesn't look so small." Zuo Li looked at Curry and smiled.

Who would have imagined that this skinny guy would have the same mental attributes as Kobe.

"Boss, come to train, I'm going to train 300 strengths today." Curry looked at Zuo Li and greeted with a smile.

Everything is in the dark, brother, you don't need to be polite, you should do it.

"Okay! But 300 are not enough, I will accompany you to practice 500!"

Curry: "..." Isn't grace avenged!

Little Ewing: "Hey, hey, boss, you can't favor one over another, I want to practice too!"

Danny Green: "And me!"

Beverly: "How can this kind of thing be without me!"

Randolph: "...This, I'll forget it, I'm too fat, I don't need strength training..."

David Li: "What are you thinking! You are the main force in this kind of thing, hurry up, practice more, they will crush them in the next game!"

…

Laughter and laughter filled the locker room again, and everything went the same as before.

How can such an atmosphere be invincible? On January 3, the Knicks ushered in the first game of the new year.

Their opponents are very strong, and the Chicago Bulls are currently second only to the Knicks in the Eastern Conference.

Although the first meeting between the two teams ended with the Knicks winning, the Bulls hadn't shown their current strength at that time.

Losing to the Knicks seems to be a watershed, and the Bulls since then can be called a dream back to the 1990s. Si Shao won four games!

Compared to last season's seventh in the Eastern Conference, with a barely 50% win rate, the Bulls this season can be said to have completely transformed. UU Reading

The core of the transformation is the Windy City Rose Derrick Rose. This season, he can average 25.0 points and 7.7 assists per game, ranking second on the MVP list at this time, second only to Zuo Li.

Of course, the results of the Bulls today are also inseparable from the efforts of others.

Another New Yorker, Noah, gradually reached his peak in 2010, especially playing under Thibodeau, who emphasizes defense. His talent and advantages are unquestionable. This season, Noah averaged 11.7 points, 10.4 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. The Bulls allowed only 97 points per 100 possessions when he was on the court.

As the core of the Bulls' perimeter defense, Luol Deng averaged 17.4 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. He is the best perimeter player in addition to Rose, and is also the core of the perimeter defense.

Of course, Boozer, who was traded in the offseason, should not be underestimated. He can also contribute 15.5 points and 8 rebounds per game.

Now this Bull can be said to be in the limelight, even surpassing the Heat in the championship rankings, second only to the Knicks and the Lakers.

People say that the second glorious era of the Bulls is coming.

And this opening drama is also considered to be a preview of a possible future playoff matchup between the Knicks and the Bulls.

It's just that the Bulls, who had the advantage of being at home in this game, never thought that the Knicks would be so strong at this time.

Before the game, some reporters kept asking Zuo Li about the person of the year and other fields, but Zuo Li responded with a set sentence: "I am a basketball player first."

On the field, Zuo Li also showed his style as a basketball player, showing his attitude by pressing Noah's dunk at the beginning and turning around to give Ross a big hat.

No matter when, he is first and foremost a basketball player, and a basketball player is chasing victory!
