When he woke up, Lu Yi realized that it was already three poles under the sun.
Their next game was still at home, against the Indianos Pacers, which would be the next day. They could rest during the day and only participate in joint practice at night. Lu Yi washed up and went downstairs to find a place to have breakfast. Alright, it was almost lunchtime. He arrived at the Chinese restaurant and was about to sit down when the waiter walked up to him happily.
"Lu Yi, what are we eating today? I'll treat you to a victory for the team while you got good statistics last night.”
"How can I do that?"
Lu Yi looked at the menu, ordered the dishes, and returned them to the waiter without any embarrassment. Before the other party left, he specially instructed the other party,""Put less oil in it. It's best not to put it in."
"We understand. Professional players should eat less greasy food.”
The waiter left as if it was a matter of course.
At this time, there were already five or six customers in the restaurant. Only one of them was blond and blue-eyed. After he came in to order, they nodded at him. Some of them were like male waiters congratulating him and the Bulls.
These people were all Bulls fans. Some of them even watched the game at the stadium. Perhaps they had chosen to eat here just to meet him.
However, everyone had a tacit understanding and did not take the initiative to interrupt his meal. They did not have the same crazy star-chasing momentum as the domestic fan circle.
Of course, this was also because Lu Yi had only played one match.
The dishes were served very quickly. Before they left, the waiter specially reminded them,"Hurry up and leave after you're done eating. Otherwise, reporters will soon appear here.”
"Good!"
Lu Yi naturally understood the other party's concerns and readily agreed.
After lunch, he had just wiped his mouth when there seemed to be a crowd outside the door. He saw the male waiter look at him, telling him to leave quickly. Lu Yi smiled, stood up, and rushed out of the restaurant without looking back.
As soon as he left, a few reporters with microphones came in, followed by a few cameras. However, they realized that Lu Yi had already disappeared. Only a few customers were looking at them gloatingly.
These reporters probably did not want to give up just like that. They walked to the male waiter and began to ask for Lu Yi's whereabouts. Unfortunately, they met a tight-lipped guy. Even if they stuffed some money into his mouth, they would not get anything. In the end, they could only return in disappointment.
"Haha, luckily I had the foresight to let him go first.”
The male waiter seemed to be taking credit for the customers as he laughed proudly. The customers smiled and shook their heads. Someone replied,"I can tell at a glance that these reporters are not serious reporters. They might be here to get some information.”
"That's right. If they were serious reporters, would they come here to look for someone?”
"I found them long ago today. They were sneaky and went around asking for news about Lu Yi. They were very wretched.”
"Try not to let these guys bother him now. He just played a game, so don't be affected.”
"Yes, yes, yes. We have to keep this a secret. Also, tell the people in this area to keep their mouths shut.”
There seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding between the people in this restaurant. They were united against a common enemy, united against the outside world, and did their best to protect Lu Yi.
At this time, Lu Yi, who had already walked towards the training hall, did not know that after he had eaten, he wanted to start training. He could not relax at all.
He didn't know if it was because his mental attribute was as stubborn as Kobe and Jordan's, or if he thought that daily training could also improve his ability, but in short, he couldn't wait to rush to the training center.
There were quite a number of reporters waiting in the training hall. He glanced around and saw that there was no news from the sports media in the city of Chicago or the United States. He dashed into the training hall at a breakneck speed.
Last night, after the game, he had received advice from Hoiberg, Wade, and the others. They kindly reminded him not to accept those messy interviews before he was ready.
As for the so-called preparation, Wade and the others all agreed that Lu Yi was becoming a real star player, not just a rotation substitute.
He walked to the locker room, changed into his training clothes, grabbed a basketball, and walked onto the court. To his surprise, someone had already started practicing. He looked from afar and saw that it was actually Mackaway who was doing shooting practice. In front of him was his trainer.
When he saw him arrive, he even gave him a friendly smile.
Lu Yi nodded in response and walked to the other half.
He didn't have the kind of savings that McCaway had to hire a trainer alone. He could only fork out a few dozen dollars himself and ask the team's staff for help.
At this time, the agreed staff members were not in place yet. He was not in a hurry to shoot continuously. Instead, he jogged first to digest. As he ran, he watched the shooting practice at the side.
McCaway had a good performance last night. He dared to fight during the garbage time. He scored 7 out of 12 shots, got 15 points, 3 rebounding, and 3 assists. He was the best player in the Bulls 'reserve lineup, other than Lu Yi.
The Bulls 'substitutes crushed the Celtics' substitutes in all aspects. Just Lu Yi and McCavey contributed a total of 30 points.
The only thing that Hoyberg was not very satisfied with was Butler. As a new core player, Butler had made 7 of 19 shots in the 33 minutes he played. He had gotten 21 points, 5 rebounding, and 3 assists with free throws. His offensive efficiency was very low. If it were not for the fact that he made 4 of 6 three-pointers, he might have been named one of the most disappointing players on the spot.
He had used the most shots in the team to score one more point than Lu Yi. It seemed that Lu Yi was more suitable to start than him.
Just as he was thinking about Butler, Lu Yi was surprised to see him appear at the entrance of the training hall.
Butler seemed to feel something and looked in his direction, but he pretended not to care and walked into the locker room.
Lu Yi was slightly stunned. He had wanted to greet her, but now he could forget about it.
He suddenly thought, if Butler continued to perform like this, could he replace him?
