Chapter four hundred and ninety third: evil words against each other
"Anjie's success is obvious to all. As a critic who has been engaged in sports for a long time, do you think An is already qualified to be a superstar?" In recent days, Anjie's popularity has reached the top. Therefore, many TV stations are also doing programs related to Anjie. After all, only by discussing hot topics can you attract the attention of everyone. Attracting everyone's attention can you earn green dollars.
"An Jie was successful just because there were too few excellent centers in this league. As long as An met a truly powerful center, he usually couldn't score any decent data. Yes, I mean, in Michael's era, a boy like An Jie was at most a qualified one!" On the TV, a man who was a little older answered the question the host just asked him. This guy was not unnatural when criticizing An Jie, as if everything he said was unquestionable truth.
"Oh?" The host obviously unexpectedly. He thought that the man in front of him would praise An Jie like everyone else. However, he seemed to be unscrupulous of An Jie.
"This is how the trend of basketball is developed. As a traditional center, Anjie can occasionally win games by some unconventional methods, it is just a flash in the pan. For example, the goal of Anjie's winning goal on January 1st, and that video has been flooded on Facebook in the past few days. I watched it, it is indeed very exciting, but Anjie can guarantee that his career can play such a ball several times? In the playoffs, and even in the finals, can he continue to take advantage of such tricks? Kobe can guarantee that he will use his backward drift shooting to win, but An, he cannot use step-back jump shots as a killer weapon." The man said a lot of things, but none of them said that Anjie is good.
"When the rhythm of the basketball game was finally dominated by the little man and pushed to the top, the center could only follow the little man's butt and ran away. And this guy... I am frank, I don't appreciate his character. He shouted at his opponent for no reason, using fake falls to cheat fouls, and the dirty little movements that should not have happened on the basketball court all revealed this guy's moral qualities. Michael was able to cope with Jordan's rules back then, but not everyone in the league was Michael. Anger's rough playing method was really a huge harm to excellent players." The man continued, his face unchanged.
"Think about it, Michael and Pistons' style back then was a contrast between wonderful and ugly. And now An is leaning towards ugly directions. Even if such a person wins the championship in the end, he will not be respected."
"Mr. Sam, your words are really sharp. You said Ann was because she didn't meet an excellent center to achieve results. Then the Trail Blazers will face the Grizzlies in the next game against the Grizzlies, Anger and Marc Gasol. Do you think Angie can still play? After all, Marc Gasol has proved that he is a very powerful traditional center." The host smiled awkwardly. He just wanted this guy to praise Angie for a few words, but unexpectedly, the situation has come to this point.
"Mark still needs to grow, but I believe he will make Ann suffer some."
"Okay, thank you Mr. Sam Smith. This is "Basketball World". See you next week." The host hurriedly ended the show, otherwise, he would know what Sam Smith would say! After offending Anjie, their small show could not afford the attacks of fans.
"Mr. Sam, I didn't know you hated Ann so much." After the show ended, the host spoke to Sam Smith in embarrassment.
"It's not annoying, but I think everyone shouldn't focus so much on a person who is destined to fail. Besides, this is still a villain."
Sam Smith, nBa's most prestigious columnist and sports journalist, and the main editor of the basketball section of the mainstream American media "Chicago Tribune". Of course, if it were just that, Sam Smith's words might just be another clown's fallacy. But this guy is also the author of the book "Jordan Rules". Of course, he is also the royal reporter of Michael Jordan, the basketball god!
Jordan's success is inseparable from media hype. The important driving force behind Jordan's hype was Sam Smith. It can be said that Sam Smith was involved in the entire process of the nBa God-making movement back then.
When Jordan makes a mistake, Sam Smith will always try every means to excuse Jordan. When Jordan succeeds, Sam Smith will make Jordan's success known to everyone.
This is the power of a well-known expert in the basketball circle. He can control the direction of public opinion and make people quickly forget something. He can change the public's view of a person. Most importantly, Sam Smith knows how to use the powerful power of the media.
He had not appeared in public for a long time at home, but by chance, he received an invitation from this small show. However, taking this small opportunity, Sam Smith, who spoke rudely, finally returned to people's vision.
This old guy with a deep experience has great power. Even Jordan is polite to him. So Sam Smith looks at the current players, and he is arrogant and rude. It is like Jordan who led the Bulls to establish a dynasty back then, but Sam Smith.
Even Kobe and Iverson, who were once criticized by Sam Smith, had a quarrel with him. Iverson was even more arrogant and had been filled with negative news about Iverson for a long time.
Such a guy doesn’t have to consider the result after judging An Jie like the program team. The people he has criticized are more than Anjie’s big names!
"Where the fuck did this old man come out?" Angel held the Portland Daily, and two-thirds of the sports sector were occupied by the remarks Sam Smith said when he participated in the show yesterday.
Although Anjie is already a professional player, he is still very unfamiliar with reporters, experts, and other people. Anjie's most familiar reporter is Wu Hua, so this is the first time that Anjie has heard of this Sam Smith.
"This guy is a stingy man. I think he never cared about anyone's opinion except Jordan. He will definitely say tomorrow that he is willing to go on a show about you because he looks down on you." Divac stood beside Angel. At the 90s, Divac must have known the most about nBa.
"So there are such a cool expert in this world." Anjie shook his head. He could have done nothing to say about these guys. But I heard that Sam Smith is so big, and he said that he was able to achieve good results was purely because no one in the league was speaking. It seems that everything Anjie got was picked up. From the beginning of college to now, the sweat and suffering that Anjie suffered behind the scenes, can this be seen by Sam Smith?
Thinking of this, Anjie has no fondness for this Jordan's official reporter.
And what about Smith? He didn't bite people for no reason. In this guy's mind, Sam Smith's approach to the general squandering talent and regarding swearing, money and arrogance as personalities made Sam Smith very dislike.
And in his eyes, the boring era of dominating the basketball world by relying on his height had ended at Jordan. This was an era of flying people in the air, so the arrogant Sam Smith would habitually belittle the inside players, believing that they were just eliminations of modern basketball.
So, it wasn't a matter of one day or two that Smith couldn't stand Anjie. But yesterday, he finally got a chance to make things bigger.
"Hey, don't tell me you're angry about that old guy's lies." Seeing that Anjie didn't crumple the newspaper into a ball and throw it away as usual, Divac was a little worried that Anjie would be affected by the comments.
Divac was criticized by Smith a lot back then. The old man said that he was just a weak inside player who was cheating and was eye-catching by his unsatisfactory passes and shameless fake throws. However, Divac never faced the clown Sam Smith. He hoped that Angel could be like himself, not be affected by negative comments.
"Angry? It's a little bit. In our Chinese terms, this guy is just relying on his seniority. What a bullshit expert, what is Jordan's official reporter, Angkor, or Angkor's official reporter, but when did he get it? In the era of a small man, did he want to deny the role of the center in basketball just a few words?" Angkor was not angry because Sam Smith confronted him, but because Sam Smith looked down on the center.
An Jie said, habitually crumpling the newspaper into a ball and throwing it into the trash can in the locker room with a shooting action.
"I'm going, old guy." Anjie moved his fingers that had just been fixed, said hello to Divac, and walked out of the locker room toward the training ground. There, his teammates and Ricard were already waiting for him.
"Hehe." Divac looked at Angel's energetic back and couldn't help but giggle.
"Smith, Smith, I'm afraid you'll lose your security in your later years. Who told you to mess with the most difficult person to mess with?" Divac was a little excited. To be honest, he really wanted to see Sam Smith's old villain refuted by Angel with his actions.
