NBA: You said you would give up, and now you’ve won three consecutive championships?

Tina listened to the manager's complaints and said with a look of grievance:

"Manager Collins, I don't know either... I just told him about the interview, and he hung up on me."

"Then you won't call again?"

“Yes.”

"Then what did he say?"

"No, he blocked me directly, and I can't get through when I call him again."

Tina felt so wronged that she almost cried. This was the only time in her career that she had been treated with such contempt.

With the resounding name of ESPN and his outstanding appearance, he has never failed to interview anyone, even the championship team.

But he just happened to be defeated by a second-round pick...

The key is that this second-round pick really made him famous and became the darling of the media recently.

Collins was also puzzled. Logically speaking, no one doesn't like to be famous.

Especially an interview from a well-known media outlet like ESPN, how could anyone refuse?

He touched his chin, then asked thoughtfully:

"Does he dislike women?"

"Oh no……"

Tina has watched Li Feng's games and thinks he is quite handsome and manly.

Is it a 1?

Collins thought for a moment, then said seriously:

"Sherlock Holmes once said, 'If you eliminate the impossible, then whatever remains, no matter how outrageous, must be the answer.'"

"Manager, what a wise man!"

Collins nodded thoughtfully, then waved his hand and said:

"Okay, you don't need to worry about this matter anymore. I'll go interview him in person when I have time."

"Manager, are you going there in person? Wouldn't that be too much of an honor for him?"

"I believe it's worth it," Collins said after a moment of reflection.

……

Li Feng's schedule has been full of hard training these days.

However, hard work pays off, and attributes in all aspects have also been improved.

Especially in terms of endurance and hardness.

You have to know that when it comes to the playoffs, you have to be tough and persistent!

For example, our famous tough guy, JB. (Jimmy Butler abbreviation, no bad connotation.)

Although Li Feng did not participate in the team's training, on the other hand, he did not miss a single meal!

The team's nutritionist travels with the team, so the quality of the meals is guaranteed and remains as stable as ever.

But today when Li Feng was having dinner, he heard Luke Walton talking on the phone with a frown on his face.

Luke Walton said that the team currently hopes to add a forward with space shooting ability, but the meaning on the other end of the phone seemed very firm. The team has entered the rebuilding stage and there is no need to waste extra operating space to do such things.

But Luke Walton believes that even if the current state is rebuilding, it is still possible to fight for a playoff spot.

And because of the recent outstanding performances of the team's newcomers including Li Feng and Ingram, he can even say that he is very confident that they can fight for a playoff spot through their growth in one season!

However, the person on the other end of the phone didn't seem to have such intentions and refused again.

"Hey..." Luke Walton was obviously depressed after hanging up the phone.

This was already the nth time he had been rejected after making this request.

At this moment, Li Feng's eyes suddenly lit up and he came over.

"Coach, what difficulties are you facing?"

When Luke Walton heard this, he subconsciously took two steps back.

What he feared most was the sudden silence in the air, and his second fear was Li Feng's inexplicable concern.

"What do you want to do, kid?"

"Me?" Li Feng laughed helplessly. "It's unfair, Coach. I just wanted to help the team solve their problems."

"You're being nice to me for no reason...are you planning on skipping training again?"

"What do you think of me? Coach, don't we even have the most basic trust between us? I just saw that you seemed to have something on your mind, so I came here to ask you out of kindness."

Luke Walton still looked Li Feng up and down with some doubt, but after all, what he said was true. As a coach, how could he doubt his players like this?

Then he waved his hand and said:

"These things are not your concern. I'll be thankful if you can attend training on time."

"No, coach, I heard you want to strengthen the forward line, right?"

"Did you hear that?" Luke Walton didn't deny it.

This answer really made Li Feng's eyes light up.

The strength of the domestic forward players is still remarkable. Yi Jianlian is still at his peak, and there is also Ding Yanyuhang, who is known as the four-character foreign aid in the CBA.

If there is really a need, isn't this the best opportunity for Xiaguo players to enter the NBA?

"Yes, I want to ask about the reinforcements for the team. Have you found any?"

"Yes, but the annual salary of similar forwards is at least around 10 million. Therefore, the management does not seem to consider the issue of reinforcement."

Perhaps he was feeling a little depressed, and at this moment Luke Walton wanted to find someone to talk to.

After all, as the head coach of the team, who doesn’t want the team to achieve results as soon as possible under his leadership?

As for tanking... well, based on the current situation, this is the team's only option.

However, Ingram and Li Feng's performance beyond expectations rekindled a glimmer of hope in his heart.

It’s just that the management is currently unwilling to spend extra money on useless work, and there are no particularly high-quality strikers who can match the team.

Difficult!

But at this time Li Feng smiled slightly, and then said mysteriously:

"I have someone to recommend to you, Coach."

"You?" Luke Walton said, a little wary. "Are you sure you can do this?"

"of course."

Although he got a positive answer, Luke Walton still hesitated and said:

"Let me make it clear first, I don't want any players who don't participate in training."

"Coach...can't we all have more basic trust between people?"

Luke Walton's mouth twitched, but he didn't answer.

Are you kidding? Just having Li Feng alone is enough to give me a headache. If another "problem boy" who doesn't train comes along, won't that be the end of me?

"Tell me about the person you recommended."

Li Feng nodded and introduced:

"I have two recommended candidates. Both are space forwards with confrontation, athleticism and shooting ability."

"Ok?"

Luke Walton was stunned. In just a few seconds, countless names flashed through his mind, but none of them seemed to match.

In today's era where the proportion of outside shots is increasing day by day, such high-quality forwards are definitely the favorites of every team.

It’s hard enough to find one myself, but Li Feng actually has two recommended candidates?

"Are these two NBA players?"

"Yes and no." Li Feng replied.

Luke Walton was stunned. What do you mean by yes and no? What kind of answer is that?

He suddenly became curious and asked, "What are their names? Do I know them?"

"You should know them. They are both players from our Xia country. They are Yi Jianlian and Ding Yanyuhang."
