Chapter 108 The Best of the First Week
The next morning, Zhou Yi woke up very early, but it was not his intention, but was woken up by Black.
"There is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to listen to first?" Black said to Zhou Yi who had not yet woken up with a smile.
After rubbing his sleepy eyes, Zhou Yi replied: "Bad news."
Black looked bitter and said to Zhou Yi worriedly: "Your data on making mistakes and fouls per game last week are among the top among all rookies."
After hearing this news, Zhou Yi suddenly felt a little excited and woke up a lot, "It's not that bad, right?"
"Oh, forget it, after all, you haven't completely adapted to such a game. After a while, it should be better." Black patted Zhou Yi's shoulder and comforted.
"What about the good news?"
"Hehe." Black's laughter sounded quite obscene, and Zhou Yi got goosebumps all over his body. "You were named the best rookie in the Eastern Conference last week."
"Ah? No way?" Zhou Yi widened his eyes and looked at Black incredible. Then, Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and twisted Black hard, and Black screamed.
"Xiaoyi, what are you doing?" Black asked loudly in pain.
"It's not a dream? Uncle, are you just saying true?"
Black rubbed the place that was twisted by Zhou Yi just now and replied unhappily: "Of course it's true. Do I look like the kind of person who cheats on children?"
"It seems that many people are performing better than me, right? That John Wall is one of them, why is it me?" Zhou Yi asked curiously.
"John Wall's data is indeed better than you, but the Pistons won two wins and one loss last week, and the Wizards lost both games. This is the main reason why you can be selected as the best rookie in the East. However, your data is also very good among rookies." Black explained to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi's personal data last week was gorgeous among all rookies, averaging 18 points, 9.3 assists, 4 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game, and averaging assists to all No. 1 positions in the League, especially his match against Derek Ross in the third game, which attracted the attention of countless fans. In that game, Ross scored 43 points and 8 assists, while Zhou Yi scored 28 points and 8 assists. Although he was not as good as Ross' data, Zhou Yi was still a rookie and was against Ross. Therefore, Zhou Yi's reputation quickly spread in the NBA.
Except for the two top picks, John Wall and Blake Griffin, Zhou Yi's data is not inferior to any rookie in the league. Although his shooting percentage is a little lower, he is a rookie after all, a teenager who has never played a large and regular game before entering the NBA. In addition, he is a Chinese, surpassing John Wall and becoming the best rookie of the Week in the Eastern Conference, which is well deserved. What's more, Zhou Yi's Pistons' record is much better than Wall's Wizards.
According to statistics, more than 30% of Detroit's fans have become Zhou Yi's fans, while most Chinese have always supported Zhou Yi since they entered the NBA, whether they are international students or local elderly people. In China, Zhou Yi's reputation is a hundred times more popular than in the United States.
When Zhou Yi first entered the NBA, although there were many people paying attention to Zhou Yi, it was very different from now. Just after he played his first regular season game, countless portal websites have opened tracking reports on Zhou Yi. In the portal special websites such as the Wave, the Fox, and the Pu, all have opened Zhou Yi's columns. Of course, this requires Zhou Yi's consent. Calling to the United States is all done by Zhou Yi's current agent, which is actually Black.
It is said that as soon as Zhou Yi's domestic column opened, there were millions of views on the first day, which made the owners of these portals crazy. Now Zhou Yi looks like a money tree to them. Although Zhou Yi has not yet achieved his status in the United States, he is just a rookie. He just played the third regular season game, but he is very valued by the management in the Pistons.
Zhou Yi thought for a while before he realized, and smiled at Black and said, "Oh, so that's it! Haha, it seems that I'm lucky!"
Black glared at Zhou Yi and replied, "Yes, you are so lucky. By the way, you should have training today, right?"
"Oh, I forgot, hehe, I was so excited yesterday." Zhou Yi smiled embarrassedly.
Black suddenly became interested and asked curiously: "What's wrong? What's going on to excite you?"
"Uh, it's actually nothing! That's right, Ke'er called me yesterday." Zhou Yi replied embarrassedly.
Black frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Is it the little girl who likes to look quiet and quiet in a white dress?"
Zhou Yi nodded and smiled foolishly.
"Look at you so stupid. Okay, you can wash up and have breakfast, take a break and go to the stadium. Be careful not to be late. Coach Kuster is not so easy to deal with. If you are late, you will feel better." Black shrugged and walked out of Zhou Yi's room.
After hearing Black's words, Zhou Yi suddenly remembered the punishment of being late that day. He immediately trembled and murmured to himself: "I'd better hurry up, it's bad if I'm late."
…………
In the locker room of Auburn Mountain Palace Arena, Zhou Yi and his teammates are staying here waiting for Kuster's arrival.
"Haha, Zhou, congratulations!" Bynum hugged Zhou Yi and laughed.
"Thank you, haha!" Zhou Yi felt a little embarrassed.
"Yes, Zhou, I have to congratulate you too~!" McGrady also walked over and patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder and smiled.
Immediately afterwards, some other teammates congratulated Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi responded politely one by one. At this time, Kuster walked into the locker room.
"It's quite lively!" Kuster said to everyone with a smile.
"Of course, coach, you should know too, right? Zhou was elected the best rookie in the Eastern Conference last week." Bynum said hurriedly.
"Haha, of course I know this. Haha, Zhou, congratulations!" Kuster turned around and said to Zhou Yi with a smile.
"Thank you, coach."
Kuss nodded, looked at everyone, his face became serious, and said, "Okay, today's training will begin soon. Everyone prepare for it now and appear on the training ground within two minutes. If you are late, you should know the consequences."
"I understand." Everyone replied in unison.
Kuster nodded with satisfaction, looked at Zhou Yi again, and walked out of the locker room. As soon as Kuster left, the Pistons players immediately changed their clothes, and the speed was astonishing.
