"You created the biggest single game difference in NBA history tonight, because you lost to the Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals last season?"
A reporter from New York, this reporter's eye-catching eyebrows, was uncomfortable at first glance.
Mo Mengchen wore a pair of black frameless glasses, which can effectively cover his white eyes.
For this low-level question, his answer is: "We are professional players, generally do not venge."
Unless the memory is too deep.
"Ron Harper said you have a strong hostility, is this true?"
The reporter couldn't see the way, and Mo Mengchen blindly guessed that he was from Cleveland.
Why? The Cleveland Cavaliers should be considered the second most serious Eastern Conference team outside of the Knicks, suffering from Jordan.
From the "Theshot" in the 1980s, the Cavaliers generation was blown alive by Jordan. The Kecheng people hated Jordan as much as the man who announced the talent to other places in ESPN live broadcast decades later.
The logic of hating Jordan and the hatred bulls together makes sense.
Mo Mengchen rolled his eyes again, and the glasses covered the scene well. Otherwise, if the moment of turning his eyes was caught by a small capture expert, the ugly photos would be small and the image would be greatly affected.
"Oh," Mo Mengchen smiled sarcastically. "I didn't even know that Ron would detect the enemy's hostility. I must ask him for advice someday."
Mo Mengchen played a word game and escaped the problem.
The next question is nothing more than that. The media wanted to know why the Pistons were so cruel, and Mo Mengchen avoided them all.
Because it is difficult for reporters to say that they deliberately hit the Bulls so badly, half way through the third quarter, Westphal intends to replace him with Hill and Houston, just don’t want to carry the infamous killing, who knows that the Bulls even have the Pistons bench. Can't stand it?
The three 98-year rookies performed very well.
For the three rookies in the team, Mo Mengchen gave a good evaluation: "Ricky is very energetic and has desires, which is very important for rookies."
"We were pleasantly surprised that Rashad was able to adapt to the confrontation so quickly."
"Brad? As you can see, he played more solidly than me. He was very selfless and pragmatic. This calmness will allow him to play in the league for many years. The future will prove that he fell to the last pick is not him. Incompetent, but the other teams are discerning."
This is Mo Mengchen's attitude towards his rookie in front of the reporter.
Going back to the dressing room, it's very different.
"Don't think that you guys will be finished after playing a good game, you three brushes, give me honestly!"
Davis and Lewis were in the locker room, because the team slaughtered the enemy on the road and Miller was innocent. He just sat beside these two younger brothers, making Mo Mengchen mistakenly thought that these three had just hit This is the rookie who has played well.
Davis was quiet immediately. Lewis stood like a frightened deer and dared not move. Miller was wronged, but what can he say? There is no reason to talk to dad.
Westphal came in a few minutes later.
He was surprised to see the silence in the dressing room.
He believes that the tranquility here is not spontaneous, but that someone forcibly suppressed the excitement of other people. This person is obviously sitting there, he has taken off his jersey, exposing the sturdy upper limb muscles.
Four years ago, many people thought he couldn't play the NBA at all, because the injuries he experienced were too terrible.
Now, those who hold this kind of thinking have been swollen.
This man not only made a name for himself in the NBA, but also avoided injuries. For four years, he has been unstoppable and rarely injured.
"Adam, I would take the liberty to ask, would you do a post-game summary before?"
Suddenly I heard a question from the head coach, and Frauss, who devalued himself as an assistant, smiled awkwardly: "Yes, we will sum up the first time after the game."
"Do you like to summarize, gentlemen?" Westphal asked.
"like!"
Everyone answered hypocritically.
Who the would like to summarize this kind of thing? After struggling to play a ball, are ready to take a bath and rest, but also to listen to you here, the idle eggs hurt?
Westphall laughed: "Sorry, I don't like it, so I can't satisfy your habit of having a summary meeting after each game, but, I have my way."
Everyone listened to Westphal seriously.
Frauss also cheered up, wondering how Westphal would replace the summary meeting.
"I call this wrong correction."
Westphal laughed, "Next I will read five names. These five people must have played tonight. If I call your name, the person called must stand up and tell us , What mistakes did you make tonight, how do you fix them, and what lessons can you learn from your mistakes."
Buckley's expression "I knew it would be like this" told everyone that this was Westphal's habit, not changed after he came to the Pistons.
Frasses didn't expect Westphal to use this method.
This method is not difficult, and can even be said to be very simple, but this half-joking and half-serious way of talking can quickly bring the relationship between coaches and players closer.
This is the style of the player's background.
They are not academics, they do not pay attention to authority, and do not value authority. They are players. They know what the players want and hate. They will actively approach the players and become friends with the players.
"Your MVP, Dor. Mo is the first to speak." Westphal shouted.
Mo Mengchen stood up unexpectedly.
Everyone is curious, what would Mo Mengchen say?
Did he make a mistake tonight?
The data of 14+10+13 and 23 minutes of playing time can be said to be a perfect performance.
Mo Mengchen soon knew what to say. He said: "It's a pity that I missed a three-pointer in the third quarter. Although that was the only goal I missed tonight, I can clearly use 100% It’s my fault that I missed the game after hitting the target. That’s my fault. Please learn from each other. We have to strive for a perfect performance every night. I’m almost a distance away from being perfect tonight.
Westphal nodded in satisfaction, Mo Mengchen really knew how to play this game.
When the team encounters such a big win tonight, this game is used to relax. Only when they lose, or play very hard, this game will play a role.
Westphal then called Hill, Ricky Davis, Houston and Lauderdale.
They were also critical of themselves like Mo Mengchen and had a simple joke. The atmosphere in the dressing room was very happy. After that, Westphal let everyone gather things and gather on the bus. They were going back to the hotel.
"What do you think of Paul?" Hill asked.
Mo Menchen said while packing things up: "Different from the coach of Adam and Doug."
This said that the answer that didn't say made Hill frown. "I have met many coaches, but few people are as forgiving as he is."
"In the NBA, tolerance is not necessarily a good thing."
Mo Mengchen had heard of Westphal's previous coaching experience, some tragedies, and in the end, the situation was out of control because of being too casual.
In the past two years, he was not in the front line of the NBA, nor in the commentary, nor in college. Where did he go? He went to high school as a teaching assistant.
Whether as an NBA player or as an NBA coach, he is legendary, even serving as a high school team assistant for the past two years.
This shows that he really loves basketball, and that he is really casual.
"You said that tolerance is not a good thing, what do you mean?" Hill asked suddenly.
"Too much tolerance will cause others to despise, just like you." Mo Mengchen said, "Some guys feel invincible if they play a good game or two, ignoring his discipline, what do you think other people will do?"
Hill said: "Who dares to mess up, I can't spare him!"
Why does Duke Gaocai want to be handsome every time, but Mo Mengchen feels that his words are not convincing at all?
Mo Mengchen accurately revealed his inner thoughts to Hill through his expression.
"What is your expression?"
"Don't get me wrong, nothing."
Mo Mengchen turned and walked away, ignoring the chattering Hill behind him.
The player returns to the hotel by bus.
In the opener, they destroyed the opponent's celebration night, which was an indirect revenge of eight arrows ago.
It is a pity that Master Pippen and others are no longer there. This is not the bull that defeated them.
Moreover, they will never be able to retaliate against the bull who eliminated them for two consecutive years.
They ran to each other, such as meteors scattered around.
The next day, the Pistons and Bulls shook the alliance.
The 74-point defeat was the first in history.
Insulted is the defending champion, the king of the nineties.
The Bulls of the new season made headlines like this.
This result made Detroit cheer, and the Pistons announced the world with this blood-letting game, and the Avengers officially returned.
The next morning, the Pistons returned to Detroit on a special plane.
The streets of Detroit are full of posters of their blood-bathed Bulls with 74 points. Fans here have been suffering for the past eight months~EbookFREE.me~ This game is enough to comfort their injured hearts.
But soon, another battle report took away the attention of fans.
The Lakers battled the Magic, Hardaway battled O'Neill and Kobe.
At the Staples Center, Penny bowed his arrow, shot Sirius, scored 50 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists in one of the league's busiest arenas, leading the team to the Lakers.
At the end of the game, a penny glared at the camera, and O'Neill stroked the head of Kobe's self-blame.
"He changed from a boy to a man." Daly said in an interview.
The Pistons should be anxious. The penny started so strongly, they were the opponents of the second game.
Two days later, the Magic will visit.
"Fear of not being able to solve the problem, get up and train well!"
Mo Mengchen gave a loud throat, and drew back his teammates who probed the brain.
