The Rockets players entered the player channel lonely.

Goose Factory live broadcast room.

The two commentators are also summarizing today's game.

"Before the game, I absolutely could not have imagined that today's opening game would be so exciting."

"Zheng Long, who joined the NBA as the No. [-] pick two years ago, is finally here two years later."

"Tell the world why he was able to overwhelm Wiggins and other players and become the No. [-] pick!"

“51分6助攻4篮板3抢断2盖帽，我的老天爷。”

"He almost filled the data column! No. 1 rookie debut data in history!"

"This data even looks at any NBA season, and it is also the performance of the top ten superstars!"

"I can't imagine how much a healthy Zheng Long can achieve this season!"

"Want to know the answer?"

"The next Lakers game, let's continue to witness together!"

[The Lakers are finally about to rise again! ! ! 】

【Originally thought that after Nao Ke retired, he wouldn’t have to watch the Lakers anymore. I was wrong. I’ll watch Zheng Long in the future! 】

[If Zheng Long hadn't been replaced at the last moment, Zheng Long would have had a chance to score 60 points! 】

【Didn't you see that Wharton was protecting Zheng Long?Russell did not disappoint! 】

[This season, the future can be expected!I have already opened the annual membership of the Goose Factory Lakers game. 】

[Damn, I'm getting angry when I talk about this, do you guys have a website to watch Lakers games for free? 】

【What?website?I only watch Europe, America, Japan and Korea. 】

[It's all Humi, borrow one to talk. 】

Inside the VIP stands.

The directors once again opened up their condemnation of Morey.

"Look! The Rockets lost to the Lakers! And let our No. 51 pick score [-] points on the opposite side!"

"Go and prepare your resignation letter!"

"Damn stupid pig!"

Listening to the unbearable scolding of the directors.

Morey smashed the table.

"A bunch of dead old men! Shut up your dog mouths!"

For Morey's sudden attack.

The directors were taken aback.

One of them reacted quickly.

"security guard!!!"

With the arrival of security guards, there was chaos in the VIP stands.

Morey, who couldn't bear the huge excitement.

Throwing around the room like a madman.

He was quickly subdued by security.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!!!"

pity.

Zheng Long didn't see this good show.

It was only in the media revelations the next day.

Saw Rockets general manager Daryl Morey attacking the board.

The news of being directly fired.

Post-match press conference.

Walton almost couldn't wait to bring the players here.

The small room was packed with journalists.

When the host announced the question, all the reporters raised their hands!

"It seems that the stars of the Lakers today can't go back."

The host's little joke drew a lot of laughter.

"Mr. Wharton, how do you feel about winning the Rockets in the opening game?"

"It's great. This win belongs to every Laker. I saw everyone's hard work today."

"Mr. Wharton, as a rookie, how do you evaluate Dragon's debut performance?"

"Rookie? You call a player who scored 51 points a rookie?"

The beautiful reporter interviewed was amused by Wharton.

"Well, he is indeed a rookie, but today he played a superstar performance. At the last moment, the team behaved very calmly, but without the 51 points scored by Zheng Long, we would definitely not be able to win the game."

At the end of the interview, Walton ended the head coach interview with a paragraph.

"In the long history of the Lakers, the winning culture has always existed. In the new season, the Lakers will strive to win every game, so that every Lakers fan can continue to be proud of the Lakers."

The audience burst into applause.

Wharton left his seat.

But for journalists.

This is just the end of the appetizer, the real main meal - Zheng Long is finally here!
A historic performance visible to the blind.

And he didn't play a game full of topics for two years.

Nowadays.

The reporters were ready to squeeze Zheng Long dry.

And Zheng Long is another rookie.

As a rookie with interview experience.

It is the easiest way to get news from your mouth.

Zheng Long hung the towel on his head and came out.

No expression.

For media interviews.

subconsciously.

Zheng Long himself was quite resistant.

After all, during the two-year injury period.

Discuss and criticize yourself negatively.

The dissemination of these media is indispensable.

But the NBA has rules.

As a player, you cannot refuse to attend the post-match press conference.

The starting penalty is [-] US dollars to start!

This is also the commercial nature of the NBA.

"Hey Long, congratulations on finally making your NBA debut, how does it feel?"

"not bad."

"there is none left?"

"."

The beautiful reporter who interviewed was stunned. Does this kid know that he scored 51 points today?
It turned out to be just one sentence, which is not bad!

Judging by his expression, it was as if someone had scored 51 points on his head!
The host also gave Zheng Long a look of confirmation.

The next questioner had to be chosen at random.

The reporter obviously had experience, and the questions he asked seemed lengthy and complicated.

"Long, you scored 51 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks in this game. At the same time, your teammates also performed wonderfully at the last moment. Even if you were not present, they still won the final victory. Excuse me. Do you think today's game is your personal achievement, or the team's achievement?"

till the end.

Only then did Zheng Long understand what the reporter meant.

Co-authoring is digging a hole for yourself.

"I didn't hear you clearly, can you repeat it exactly?"

Zheng Long's answer confused the reporter who asked the question.

Bite the bullet and repeated it once.

The atmosphere in the audience was a little awkward.

This time, Zheng Long scratched his head and ears again.

Put on a sincere expression.

"Sorry, I was in a daze just now, can you say it again?"

The reporter's face turned green.

Zheng Long is playing tricks on himself!

He didn't expect that the hole he dug for Zheng Long would in turn bury him.

to this moment.

The reporters at the scene were also aware of it.

This kid from China is not a rookie who is easy to "bully".

now.

The Lakers players in the backcourt were already laughing.

Zheng Long speaks "hurtful" traits.

It is recognized in the hearts of the players.

It hurts when you are bullied.

See Zheng Long bullying others.

But there is a different kind of excitement.

Wharton also let out a long sigh of relief.

Originally, I was worried that Zheng Long would suffer.

Now it seems that it is completely redundant!
"Not just on the pitch."

"Under the field."

"I don't even think that someone will let Zheng Long suffer!"

Russell didn't know his own evaluation.

in later.

Verified as "Zheng's Three Laws, the First Law!"

that night.

The Lakers stayed at the hotel.

Zheng Long, who was about to fall asleep, heard a knock on the door.

open the door.

It turned out to be Russell and Randall.

The two hesitated to speak.

"Is something wrong?"

"That. Long, the two of us are going to go to a nightclub in Houston to have a good time. You lived here before, and I want you to take the two of us. To show our sincerity, we will cover your expenses!"

Zheng Long wanted to laugh when he heard this.

These two brothers are kidding, and it's not that they haven't played away games, so how could they not know about Houston's nightclubs.

This is clearly to have a good relationship with yourself.

There is no reason to refuse.

Zheng Long nodded in agreement.

"And me, I want to go too! Can you invite me too?"

Ingram appeared out of nowhere.

"You can go, we don't care about your consumption!"

Zheng Long looked helplessly at the three live treasures.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, you three spend money, I will pay today."

"tonight!"

"Show you how big a Houston stripper's ass is!"
