When Yang Xu returned to the hotel with the team, it was already past ten o'clock at night.
Because they ate very little before the game, the team arranged for some supper.
Yang Xu was very hungry and ate a lot. In the end, he was the only one in the restaurant.
When he returned to his room, he saw Scheer watching television.
The television was broadcasting the sports news.
"The young Knicks player scored another high score and led the team to win three consecutive victories!”
After that, it started to play Yang Xu's competition highlights.
Yang Xu's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to be on TV.
He even specially made a highlight reel of his own match. It was really too surprising.
"Yang Xu easily broke through Iguodala and made a layup with his left hand!”
"Yang Xu goes to Iguodala and dunks at the free-throw line.”
"Yang Xu bypassed two people to block the basket and split Huashan!”
"Yang Xu scored three points in a row and beat the 76ers!”
……
41 points. The highlight reel played for two to three minutes.
Yang Xu watched it with great interest. This was the first time he saw himself on TV.
If it wasn't novel, then it was impossible.
Scheer looked at Yang Xu, his mind full of questions.
How could Yang Xu be so powerful even though they were both rookies?
Why was the physical fitness of the Chinese players so explosive?
Why was Yang Xu so calm when he had just started playing in the NBA? It was as if he was an old player on the field.
But from Yang Xu's daily performance, he couldn't guess.
Was this talent?
Yang Xu only had basketball in his eyes. Other than basketball, he didn't care about anything else.
Other than eating and sleeping, his life seemed to be filled with nothing but basketball.
"Hill, let's go back to New York and train together!”Yang Xu, who was engrossed in watching TV, suddenly said.
Hill was stunned." Training together? Alright…alright!"
Although he was not very familiar with Yang Xu, people who worked hard often won the respect of others.
This was how Hill treated Yang Xu.
Moreover, Yang Xu was so strong. Training with him should improve very quickly!
The next morning, the entire Knicks team went to Indiana to challenge the Pacers.
On this day, the main focus of the sports news was still Yang Xu.
However, the reporters also mentioned more about Yang Xu's talent show.
"Who wins and who loses? The Blazers exchanged two rookies for the Knicks 'first round draft pick the following year. The hot rookie Yang Xu was a gift!”
"Yang Xu proved himself with his strength. How stupid was the Blazers 'choice!”
On this day, the Los Angeles Clippers and the Mavericks clashed fiercely.
In the end, the Mavericks won easily. Kobe didn't feel good. He only made 6 of 18 shots and scored 20 points.
Nowitzki scored 5 out of 14, and his hit rate was also very low, scoring 21 points.
The final score was 94:80.
After the game, Kobe was surrounded by reporters. Kobe was used to this kind of scene, so he was very good at dealing with reporters.
"In this game, your shooting percentage is very low. Is it because the other side's defense is good, or is it because your own feel is bad?”
"Well…we played very hard, but our luck was always a little bad. Of course, the Mavericks 'defense has always been very good!”
"Do you think this is an early rehearsal for the Western Conference finals? If you really meet in the Western Conference finals, do you have the confidence to beat the Mavericks?”
"The regular season hasn't even started yet, so it's hard to say. There are many factors that affect a team's ability to reach the end, such as injuries, trades, and so on. But we will definitely make it to the finals. Whether we can meet the Mavericks will depend on them! Hahaha…"
Kobe made a funny expression.
It instantly amused the reporters present.
"Kobe, there's a rookie in the New York Knicks who's been particularly hot recently. Have you been paying attention to him?”
As soon as this question was raised, the originally cheerful atmosphere immediately became quiet.
They were all curious as to how Kobe viewed this rising star.
Yang Xu was very much like Kobe in many aspects.
Kobe became serious when he was asked this question.
"How should I put it? I've watched a lot of his videos. To be honest, I've become his fan, hahaha..."
"He's very much like me, his focus on the game, his desire for victory, his ambition, and so on.”
"I'm looking forward to playing against him. It must be very interesting.”
Kobe's focus on basketball could be said to be crazy. Los Angeles at four o'clock in the morning was the best example.
He would even go to a rookie to learn a certain skill.
He was never stingy with his praise and help for rookies.
"However, if I meet him, I will definitely teach him a lesson and let him know that the world is still mine.”
The reporters listened to Kobe's answer seriously. They nodded repeatedly and finally laughed.
"Yang Xu said in an interview with the reporters that their goal is to win the championship. What do you think?”
When Kobe heard this question, he frowned and looked at the reporter with disdain.
"Hey! Stop fooling around. This year's championship is ours. No one can snatch it away!”
