Chapter 475 I'm here to be Pippen!(2/2)
It would be strange to feel comfortable when your direct competitor gets a major reinforcement.
Of course, Durant was still asked some more pointed questions, such as...
"Who will be the boss of the Nets?"
A reporter from ESPN asked Durant directly.
An important reason why the king does not see the king is that he does not obey anyone.
We are all giants in the league, why are you the boss and me the second?
Lin Ying originally wanted to take the microphone and say something like, "We are the Texas Twins", "We are tied for second place".
But Durant took the microphone first.
"I'm here to be Pippin for Lin."
What is Kevin Durant!
It’s just direct!
These words also caused a commotion among the reporters in the audience.
Durant's gesture is really unexpected.
"But only Lin can let me do that."
Then Durant added another point.
This also quickly silenced the commotion in the audience.
Yes, that's Lin Ying!
If you team up with Lin Ying and let Lin Ying be Pippen, I'm afraid people all over the world will think you are crazy.
So Durant's words sounded very straightforward, but in fact there was no problem.
"Lin, do you think so too?"
The ESPN reporter then asked Lin Ying the same question.
Lin Ying originally wanted to say something, so she took the microphone directly.
"I think the combination of me and Kevin is like Olajuwon and Drexler."
Lin Ying said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from the audience.
Because this example is so perfect.
Drexler chose to look for Olajuwon after the Trail Blazers tried their best and failed to win the championship, and Durant did the same;
The season Drexler went there, because Jordan retired, Olajuwon became the number one player in the league, and Lin Ying was also the number one player in the league;
The most interconnected point is that Olajuwon and Drexler were college teammates, as were Lin Ying and Durant!
Moreover, this answer avoids directly answering the question of who is the boss. It can be said to be the most perfect answer. No wonder the reporters applauded.
Lin Ying is extremely good at language arts.
By this time, almost all the questions to Durant had been asked, and the fans also turned their questions to Lin Ying.
"Lin, you just mentioned Olajuwon and Drexler. They completed two consecutive championships in Houston. Considering the ages of you and Kevin, are the Nets ready for three consecutive championships?"
This one is followed by TNT, which is regarded as "one of our own".
After he asked this question, the audience burst into laughter.
After experiencing the "who is the boss" question before, this question can be said to be quite easy.
However, Lin Ying did not laugh. He did not think this was an easy topic.
Moreover, his answers were also very serious.
"I think many people don't know how difficult it is to win three consecutive championships in modern basketball. Your opponents change every season. The opponents you encounter will be very different from what you imagined, and you also have to overcome state, injuries and injuries.
, fighting spirit, personnel turnover and other factors.
This is why I said before that Jordan is the GOAT in my heart. Putting aside external factors, he has won three consecutive championships twice."
Lin Ying's words drew another burst of applause from the audience.
He has just experienced a season in which he failed to win three consecutive championships, and these words can be said to be from personal experience.
And Lin Ying is really Qiao Chui!
However, Lin Ying's expression was still serious.
"And in today's league, you still have to deal with the emergence of various super teams, so for us, our goal is to win a championship first. As for more, I think the answer will naturally come in time."
The audience burst into applause for the third time.
Compared with James' "7 championships" when he first came to New York, Lin Ying's words are what a mature person should say.
You will feel how incredible this is. After all, Lin Ying entered the league 4 years later than James and is 4 years younger than James.
…
"Ying, I think you are being conservative."
After the press conference, Lin Ying and Durant walked to the players' tunnel together. Durant couldn't help but say.
"What? You also want to imitate LeBron and win 7 championships?"
Lin Ying said with a smile.
"No, but I think we still have a good chance of winning three consecutive championships. I'm very confident."
Durant is full of confidence and he always likes to be straightforward.
"Kevin, even if we can do it, it's not appropriate for us to say this, because if we can't do it, we will become a laughing stock. Isn't that how LeBron's seven championships came about?"
Durant nodded after listening, as if that was the case.
"and……"
"And what?"
"Have you forgotten what I told you about the flag?"
Durant suddenly stopped. He carefully recalled what Lin Ying said at the press conference, and then unconsciously slapped his forehead.
"I seem to know what you meant before!"
What he was talking about was what Lin Ying said about asking him to imitate Barkley's speech.
After hearing this, Lin Ying patted Durant on the shoulder:
"Children can be taught."
…
The next day, Charlotte.
Jordan's mansion.
As usual, Jordan was smoking a cigar and sitting on the soft sofa watching the news reports.
Originally he was scanning the news, but when he saw the NBA, he was stunned for a moment, then put down his cigar and burst into laughter.
He really likes this guy Lin Ying!
He wanted to call Lin Ying, but found that he seemed to have nothing to teach Lin Ying.
But he still called and asked Lin Ying to have dinner together.
After he put down the phone, he was still reading the newspaper and laughing non-stop.
The way he looks now is like your cat, he likes you very much, so much that he doesn't know how to express it, until,
Chapter completed!
