Chapter 55: Unanimous praise from the entire network! Kobe is nervous! New system tasks!

"We all just did the right thing in our respective fields."

Wang Yan then brought the team manager's words to the press conference.

Facing the crowd of cameras and long guns in the audience.

Wang Yan also decisively transformed himself into the team leader.

Stand up for the Eight Wise Kings.

"Tristan he's just defending me, that's all."

"No one can hurt us because Tristan will rush ahead of danger."

"That's why we chose him, he is our championship puzzle!"

Looking at Wang Yan's calm and serious expression.

The reporters in the audience all swallowed their saliva.

So, the reason you chose Thompson was really to choose a team bodyguard?
And we want to train him to be a championship puzzle?

The reporters couldn't help but turn their eyes to head coach Byron Scott.

"We, the entire Cavaliers team, strongly oppose fighting on the court."

When Byron Scott faced the camera, he first created an image of himself as a serious person.

But he quickly changed his expression and said: "But as long as the safety of even one player is threatened."

"Everyone on our team will fight back!"

"This is the NBA, man."

"This is the ancient Roman Colosseum, not a billiard hall."

“We won’t back down!”

Byron Scott's intention is obvious.
The head coach of the Kings next door is diverting firepower to Cousins.

The Cavaliers, who have already suffered a loss, will of course pass the fuse to the real culprit.

Cousins ​​made a dirty move on Wang Yan.

The Eighth Wise King stood up for the eldest brother.

Is there anything wrong with this?
of course not!

Byron Scott's press conference speech immediately received unanimous praise from Cavaliers fans.

"Every championship-winning team needs someone like Tristan!"

"Basketball is a team sport, and teammates need to protect each other!"

"Tristan makes the Cavaliers even more cohesive!"

“That’s Cleveland chemistry!”

It’s not just Cavs fans.

Even some veteran NBA stars spoke out after the game, agreeing with the Eight Wise Kings' toughness.

"I support Tristan. The Cavaliers need such role players."

"No one in Cleveland is wrong, it's DeMarcus Cousins ​​who is wrong!"

Among them, Charles Barkley and Hakeem Olajuwon, who was previously very active on social media, are the most prominent.

To know.

In the 80s and 90s, things like what is happening today were perfectly normal.

"Is there something wrong with what Tristan did?"

Even Michael Jordan said in an interview: "Isn't this a normal thing?"

"We fought in almost every playoff game against the Pistons."

Just like Jordan said.

It's normal to fight for your brothers.

If you don't dare to fight, then you are a coward on the court.

Of course, the high praise from these celebrities does not excuse Tristan Thompson.

He was still fined $3 by the league and suspended for three games.

As for DeMarcus Cousins, he was also fined $3 and suspended for three games.

But the difference is.

Cousins ​​was fined $3, which he had to pay out of his own pocket.

And the Eighth Wise King actually made 12 US dollars from this wave!

You can make extra money by fighting.

It’s so cool!
As for Wang Yan’s punishment?
The answer is NO!

Not only was he not punished, Wang Yan also received an award.

After this game, the league officials also announced another week's Eastern and Western Conference Player of the Week awards.

Wang Yan continued to average 42+18+5 and led the team to a perfect record, and was elected Eastern Conference Player of the Week + Rookie of the Week.

He also became the first rookie in NBA history to win the Player of the Week award in both Week 1 and Week 2 of his rookie season.

Surpass O'Neal and become number one!

In the MVP rankings, Wang Yan is also far ahead.

Now Wang Yan not only ranks first in average points per game and total points.

Rebounding champion + blocked shot champion. Also leading the entire league!
In other words, Wang Yan is very likely to accomplish the following in his rookie season:

Scoring champion + rebounding champion + blocked shot champion

MVP＋DPOY
The Super Grand Slam!

. . . .

"This guy is the Eastern Conference Player of the Week again."

United States, Los Angeles
The Staples Center bench.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, Kobe Bryant, who won the Western Conference Player of the Week award last night, looked at the Los Angeles Morning News with some surprise.

However, he ignored the fight on the Cavaliers team.

Instead, all attention was focused on Wang Yan's performance in the past week.

"Kobe, I knew you were paying attention to Wang Yan again."

Just as Kobe was reading the newspaper attentively, Gasol, who had just arrived at the stadium, quietly came to Kobe's side.

"It seems that you really regard them as our rivals for the championship."

Mrs. Jia smiled.

This is not the first time Gasol has seen Kobe paying attention to Wang Yan.

"Every team could be our opponent for the championship."

Kobe put down the newspaper and said expressionlessly: "I just think they are a little special."

"What's special? Do you mean fighting?"

Gasol put his backpack on the bench and noticed that Kobe's body was already soaked with sweat.

I guess this training maniac may have arrived at Staples at 4 a.m. again...

Gasol said it casually, but Kobe analyzed it seriously.

"Tristan is an excellent center with a large tonnage. He can protect the rim and reduce the defensive pressure on Wang Yan on the defensive end."

"And Tristan's ability to catch the ball and his second-chance ability are much better than that of JJ Hickson."

Gasol's expression changed when he heard this.

Kobe's implication is.

The arrival of Tristan Thompson will greatly reduce the pressure on Wang Yan on both offense and defense.

If we play against the Lakers.

Tristan Thompson could potentially be traded for Andrew Bynum of the Lakers.

In this case.

Wouldn't Wang Yan, who is fully liberated on both offense and defense, be putting himself in danger?

Gasol couldn't help but frown.

"Before Wang Yan entered the NBA, I had a feeling that he would be a tough guy to deal with."

Kobe wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your problem is coming, Paul."

"Cleveland's twin towers in the interior may be better than us."

Just like Kobe said.

Now the Cavaliers' twin towers, although Wang Yan accounts for 9, Tristan Thompson accounts for 1.

But Cleveland has two tall players in the interior.

Still not afraid of any inside combinations in the league.

The Lakers' sister-in-law + Little Shark.

Obviously not good enough.

"So I came here to train in advance."

Gasol laughed and said, “I don’t want to be Wang Yan’s background when we play against them on Christmas Eve.”

As if seeing Gasol's efforts, Kobe finally smiled.

"But I think you're still too late. I've already been training for two and a half hours."

The sister-in-law gave Kobe a cold look.

Afterwards, the two began to practice double cooperation.

On this sunny morning in Los Angeles, Kobe abandoned Vanessa and chose to fight hard with his sister-in-law.

…………

Almost at the same time.

Cleveland, Zhou Lingan's Living Apartment

"You are so majestic and powerful, you are like a crazy horse..."

The ringing of the cell phone alarm woke up Wang Yan, who had been exercising with Zhou Lingan for half the night.

Wang Yan yawned, stretched, and prepared to get up.

He has a lot of work to do, the most important of which is to buy a house.

But Wang Yan, who had just woken up, was suddenly stunned.

"Ok?"

"The system actually had the latest news last night!"
