Post-match interview session.
Lakers interview room.
"Jiang, you broke Michael Jordan's record of 64 points at the Bulls' home court in just three quarters. How do you feel now?"
A reporter asked impatiently.
"Well, I feel like Jordan's record isn't that hard to break..."
Jiang Chen said after a pause.
??!!
The reporters all sneered.
This Chinese player is really young and ignorant!
For Jordan, this single-game record of 64 points was just a small record.
What is truly difficult to break are the two three-peat championships, as well as consecutive honors such as the regular season MVP, All-Star Game MVP, Finals MVP, and 10 scoring titles, and other enviable records.
Does this Chinese rookie think it's easy to break these records?
You have to know that he has not won any heavyweight honors so far in his career.
Even his only championship ring seemed to have little to do with him.
Although he did have two explosive performances and saved the Lakers, in terms of seniority last season, there were Kobe, Gasol, Odom, and others ahead of him, and he was just a water cooler player.
So if we really want to count the honors, then Jiang Chen's championship ring is of very low value to him.
"Dude, you have to be kidding! Jordan's records are more than just points."
Some reporters were dissatisfied with Jiang Chen's speaking style and directly criticized him.
"I know that Jordan is indeed great, the greatest player in NBA history, and he has set countless mythical records, but aren't these records meant to be broken? If a basketball player doesn't even dare to think about breaking a record, then what's the difference between him and a salted fish?"
Jiang Chen frowned and said seriously.
He was not pretending to be cool, nor was he exaggerating; he was just speaking his true thoughts.
Not just his personal opinion and will.
Even in his memories of inheriting this body after his rebirth, he still had this attitude.
Even a water dispenser manager should have lofty ambitions.
So he kept working hard for this, but he worked too hard and ended up dying suddenly...
The reporters gasped when they heard this.
This sounds really arrogant!
The pattern is smaller again.
Even Kobe turned his head to look at Jiang Chen, his eyes full of admiration.
With great ambitions, I want to compete with the gods!
What a spirit this is.
"Jiang, you seemed to have communicated a lot with Ross during the game. Can you tell us more?"
A reporter changed the subject and continued asking.
"I told him to fight for the top spot on the team, not to be timid in the game, and to do whatever he wants."
"It turns out that when Rose plays in his own way, he shows much more energy!"
Jiang Chen shrugged and said.
???
The reporters were confused and didn't quite understand what Jiang Chen said.
Is this creating difficulty for yourself in the game?
If it weren't for Rose's outburst, the Lakers would probably have entered garbage time in less than three quarters.
It was because of Rose's sudden outburst that the Lakers failed to widen the gap before halftime.
Of course, the Lakers still won easily in the end, but the process was still very dangerous.
This wave of operations is indeed a bit confusing.
If Ben Gordon hadn't performed so poorly, the result would have been different.
etc!
Some reporters felt as if something was breaking open in their minds, like a clueless line that was clearly there but they just couldn't grasp the thread.
moment.
"Jiang, you completely destroyed Ben Gordon after the switch. What prompted you to defend Ben Gordon? Was it because of the coach's arrangement?"
A reporter asked.
"No! This is entirely my own wish. I heard Ben Gordon's dissatisfaction with Ross, so I decided to teach Gordon a lesson."
Jiang Chen said calmly, telling the whole truth about what happened in the game.
After all, there are several parties involved in these contents, and they certainly cannot be concealed from reporters. The most that can be said is that the time of early and late reporting is different.
Besides, now that Ross and Ben Gordon have broken up, it is natural that the bigger the incident, the better.
If the Bulls management is really idiotic and is planning to trade Rose, then the Lakers will definitely compete for it.
???
The reporters were even more confused after hearing this.
Hello!
Is this serious?
He never stops talking until he is shocked!
Help your opponent teach your opponent a lesson?
In the decades-long history of the NBA, this is probably the first time such a thing has happened!
This tortuous plot, the different standpoints but mutual sympathy, and the touching feelings of helping the opponent, this is totally worthy of being made into a Hollywood blockbuster!
The key point is that this Chinese player really... did something shocking.
The reporters looked at each other in surprise. They never expected that so many stories would happen in this game. It was really exciting.
Jiang Chen not only taught Gordon a lesson on behalf of Rose but also encouraged Rose to challenge the position of team leader, deepening the conflicts within the Bulls.
I wonder what the Bulls management would think if they knew about this.
Probably he wanted to cut Jiang Chen into pieces.
The reporters excitedly recorded the content of this interview.
Compared with the outcome of the game and the record broken by Jiang Chen, the things that happened in the game are more attractive!
I believe that fans will also spark heated discussions after seeing these contents!
focus!
This is absolutely breaking news.
The reporters simply asked a few more questions and then hurriedly ended the post-match interview. They were all eager to go back and report the content.
Although the post-match interviews were also broadcast live, not many fans were willing to spend time watching them.
...
Bulls interview room.
Ben Gordon was absent from the interview, and only Rose and Bulls head coach Vinny were present.
"Derrick Rose, what motivated you to have such a big explosion in this game? What made you set a new record in your career?"
A reporter asked curiously.
"It was Jiang Chen who encouraged me! He said a lot of encouraging words to me during the competition, which made me find my true self."
Ross said seriously, with gratitude on his face.
???
The reporters were stunned.
Jiang Chen's encouragement?
Aren't these two opponents on the court? Why do they sound like friends who respect each other?
That's a bit outrageous.
"Rose, are you sure you mean encouragement, not... provocation?"
A reporter asked, fearing that Rose was too young to distinguish between encouragement and provocation.
"Of course! Man, do you think I have an IQ problem? Can't I even tell the difference?"
Ross frowned, looking a little angry.
The reporter smiled awkwardly and said no more.
"Rose, it seems that you and Ben Gordon had several verbal conflicts during this game. Is there any internal conflict between you and Gordon?"
