"Zhang, why can you score so many points?"

the reporter asked.

"Because I hit a lot of shots."

Zhang Zhiyuan's answer directly made the fans laugh.

What the reporter means is, how can you score so many points as an undrafted player?

Zhang Zhiyuan didn't answer the question, but others really couldn't find anything wrong with his answer.

Isn't it just because he made a lot of shots that he scored high?

"Zhang, you played an incredible game and proved your strength. Do you think you are qualified to be the team's starter?"

The reporter asked maliciously.

Unfortunately, this kind of question is too childish for Zhang Zhiyuan, and he certainly cannot be fooled: "No, no, no, I just performed beyond my level today. This is not my true strength. The team and I still need to get along, and I still need to improve.

As for whether to start or come off the bench, that's something Phil has to worry about, and I won't help him share his worries, after all, he didn't share his salary with me."

Cleverly avoiding problems that would affect the team's harmony, he also made fun of Jackson.

Jackson was extremely satisfied with this answer.

"You are lying. We all can see that you have the ability to be a starter. You scored 31 points on 10 of 19 shots in 24 minutes. Your performance was even more impressive than Kobe. Can't you still be a starter with this ability?"

The reporter seemed not to let Zhang Zhiyuan go, and would not be willing to let Zhang Zhiyuan go until he saw a fight between Zhang Zhiyuan and Walton.

In the past, Jackson would usually answer the question and help the players resolve the situation.

But now, he remained silent, he wanted to see if Zhang Zhiyuan could solve this problem.

"Okay, I admit, I can take Kobe's place. I think the team can trade Kobe to the Rockets in exchange for Tracy and Yao Ming to help the Lakers win the championship."

Zhang Zhiyuan shrugged, then turned to ask Kobe: "Kobe, you love the Lakers, and you are willing to sacrifice for the Lakers, right?"

What the reporter wanted to hear was Zhang Zhiyuan admitting that he could replace Walton. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhiyuan said that he could replace Kobe.

This is a bit nonsense, but this kind of irregularity just makes the problem entertaining, and fans will not take it seriously.

Moreover, what he said was very skillful, saying that Kobe could be replaced by Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming, which was considered a compliment to Kobe and would not dissatisfy Kobe.

Sure enough, Kobe also said with humor: "Of course, I can sacrifice everything for the Lakers, including trading myself. I will tell Robert (Kobe's agent) and let him promote this transaction."

The reporters at the scene laughed when they heard this, and the question came to an end.

There is no point in continuing to argue. It will only give fans a sense of confusion. The reporter changed the question: "Zhang, is there a grudge between you and Garnett as rumored? You two were very explosive during the game.

Did you want to hit him at that time?"

"There was an unpleasant experience, but that's over. Hit him? I didn't think about it. I wanted him to hit me, so he would be sent off. It's a pity that he didn't do it."

Zhang Zhiyuan said.

"Phil, how did you discover Zhang? Did he go to the Lakers' arena pretending to be a trial player?"

The reporter saw that Zhang Zhiyuan could not be troubled, so he changed the interview subjects.

"No, we took the initiative to invite Zhang to try out. The Lakers are a team that focuses on discovering talents. We have a very strong news network and the courage to reuse newcomers..."

A very official answer, and also took the opportunity to whitewash the Lakers.

...

The newspaper will not be available until the next day, but the sports news on the Internet has been updated.

[The strongest undrafted player, 10 of 19, 7 three-pointers in a single game, efficient score of 31 points.]

[In a heated conflict, Zhang and Garnett almost came to blows, but Smarsh stepped in to take the piss.]

[Zhang: I can replace Kobe, and the Lakers can trade Kobe.]

As soon as the news came out, those fans who had not watched the game couldn't help but click on the news out of curiosity.

31 points on 19 shots, this is too exaggerated.

Fans once suspected that this was headline-making, but after reading the report, they discovered that it was all true.

As for news about the conflict, the number of views is even higher.

Fans are just fine with this, let alone Garnett in the conflict.

Everyone wants to know where this Zhang Zhiyuan got the courage to fight against the tough guy Wolf King.

The last piece of news was a real headline-grabber, but after reading the content, the fans smiled knowingly and were not angry because they were deceived.

Because Zhang Zhiyuan's interview is very interesting and fresh.

"I already kind of like this guy."

"I wonder if it will be short-lived."

"It's just a matter of playing well in one game. Many players have had their highlight moments. This doesn't mean anything."

The fans were divided into many factions and even quarreled because of different opinions.

In this quarrel, some people became Zhang Hei, and some people became Zhang Zhiyuan's fans.

The next day, CCTV building.

"Hey, Zhang scored 31 points against the Timberwolves, which is more than Kobe."

CCTV did not broadcast the Lakers-Timberwolves game live yesterday, and Zhang Lili only learned of the news today.

"Online fans have a lot of opinions and are questioning us for not broadcasting this game. Moreover, we know too little about Xiao Zhang. Now many fans are interested in him."

Sun Zhengping said.

The news that Zhang Zhiyuan scored 31 points in a single game caused a greater sensation in China. This is the second player after Yao Ming to score 30 points in the NBA.

What's more, this is Zhang Zhiyuan's second game.

For a time, many fans who did not often follow the NBA became curious about him and wanted to know more about him and watch his games.

"I'll apply to the leader to broadcast the video during off-peak hours."

Zhang Lili said.

CCTV has scheduled programs for each time slot, and it is not easy to insert new programs temporarily.

As for live streaming, it's even more troublesome.

This involves live broadcast copyright and the interests of all parties.

"It's not enough to just broadcast the video. We still have to find a way to arrange a live broadcast as soon as possible, otherwise the fans will have objections. I watched the video of this game. To be honest, it is much better than the Rockets game. It is very helpful for promoting our sports industry.

Helpful.”

Sun Zhengping said.

"I'm going to think of a way and apply."

Zhang Lili smiled.

In the past, I was worried that there were no exciting games, but now I am worried that there are too many exciting games. This is a happy worry.

At the same time, savvy fans have been eager to find NBA original sound recordings through various methods.

Most fans don't understand, but it doesn't matter, everyone comes to see Zhang Zhiyuan.

"Damn, are these fans discriminating against us Chinese? Why are they specifically booing Brother Zhang?"

"I heard that it was Brother Zhang who beat up Garnett, so Timberwolves fans hate him."

"Hit Garnett? Good guy, so manly."

"Why isn't it the first choice?"

"Finally got on the court, played the 4th position, damn, faced off against Garnett."

"Oh, I can't help it."

"What is he doing? Provocative, so arrogant. Is this okay?"

"Danger!"

"I'm in, damn, he's so damn handsome and domineering."

"Japan, Kobe didn't even pass the ball and still scored. Is he trying to rebel and seize the boss's position?"

"Ah, don't, don't get hurt, this Garnett is so dirty."

"This body is really strong."

"It's in again, my god, it's so accurate."

...

These startling sounds filled every Internet cafe and bedroom.

Chinese fans were stunned by Zhang Zhiyuan's performance.

Not only because of the score, the process is even more exciting.
