Chapter 286 You Are My Prey
The Lakers vs. Spurs, although Yuan Qingshan was exhausted in this game, he played comfortably, his body was active, all parts were in good condition, and he couldn't stop at all.
After leaving the court, Yuan Qingshan seized the opportunity to take a hot shower and played for 40 minutes without knowing how much sweat he shed.
The moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game, he really wanted to just lay down on the floor and sleep on him for a day and a night.
This is just the regular season. If it comes to the playoffs, with the difference in the Lakers' lineup, can't the main players be exhausted?
"You wash slowly, I have to go out!" Whiteside hurriedly took a shower and ran out to tidy up his jersey.
Kobe's right shoulder was very uncomfortable. After the game, he followed the team doctor for an examination. Towns said that he had a stomach discomfort and slipped away, so only Yuan Qingshan and Whiteside participated in this interview.
Under normal circumstances, the post-game interviews of the Lakers are Kobe, Yuan Qingshan and Towns, and Whiteside basically can't get them.
Tonight can be regarded as having a chance to show his face in front of the media, and after winning against a strong team, this guy is so excited.
Yuan Qingshan was not as excited as Whiteside. After drying his hair, he put on a T-shirt and came to the conference room.
Stepping through the door, I saw that Whiteside was already sitting there in a stable manner, and the water bottle in front of him was empty.
Before the interview started, without saying a word, this guy had already finished off a large bottle of water, and it was obvious that he was very nervous.
The arrival of Yuan Qingshan caused commotion in the meeting room, and the reporters took some close-up photos of Yuan Qingshan with their cameras.
Whiteside sat awkwardly in front, and the scissors hands were all set up, but unfortunately, the attention of the reporters did not return.
39 points, 9 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals.
This is the data of Yuan Qingshan, a well-deserved MVP. If Kobe is present, everyone will probably ask some questions for some face.
Kobe was not there, and the reporters professionally ignored the legendary coolie center Whiteside.
Yuan Qingshan sat down, smiled at the familiar reporters in the front row, and indicated that the interview could begin.
"Yuan Qingshan, you played very resolutely tonight, do you have any special motivation?" the reporter asked.
This is not a good question, neither nutritious nor necessary to expand.
So Yuan Qingshan replied procedurally: "We play very resolutely every night. As long as the coach arranges for us to play, I think every Laker will go all out."
The person next to the reporter sniggered inwardly, thinking that anyone in this room who thought Yuan Qingshan was a rookie with a clumsy tongue would be a fool.
"What do you think of Tony Parker?"
This is a good question, and Yuan Qingshan answered without hesitation: "He is the predecessor of our generation, and he is also a role model. I was still studying when he won the championship. I am honored to be able to play against him tonight. I have learned a lot from him."
Whiteside sat aside awkwardly, he thought Yuan Qingshan was too bureaucratic.
If this question is thrown to himself, he will definitely say that Tony Parker is old, he can't attack and score, and he can't defend well. He hopes to play against him in 82 regular season games every year.
This was just a passing thought, and I immediately complained to myself: What a mess!
Then a subconscious smile appeared on his face.
"Hassan, are you laughing? Do you think what Yuan Qingshan said is wrong?" A sharp-eyed reporter caught the fleeting change on Whiteside's face.
"Ah..." Whiteside was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled the microphone closer: "I didn't mean that, our team has already reached a consensus: never question Qingshan."
The reporters thought he was joking, and burst out laughing. No matter how thick-skinned Yuan Qingshan was, he was blushed by this "Shan Chuan" behavior.
Then everyone asked some questions related to the competition, and Yuan Qingshan answered them one by one.
Seeing that the interview was coming to an end, a female reporter suddenly raised her hand: "I heard that LeBron is actively recruiting Joe Johnson. Does the Lakers have this plan?"
Yuan Qingshan froze for a moment: "Why, isn't Joe Johnson in the Nets?"
The reporter explained in surprise: "He has been bought out by the Nets, and the clarification period is almost over."
Yuan Qingshan's heart moved. Generally, players after buyouts can be signed with only a small salary. It is estimated that Joe Johnson can get it done with a veteran contract.
Although the former Eagle King is old, he is tall and powerful, and has a certain shooting ability. If he can be signed at a very low price, it will be a good supplement to the bench lineup. After all, the current lineup is too poor.
Yuan Qingshan was stunned for a moment and replied: "Joe Johnson is an excellent player. The playoffs are coming soon. I think any player needs this kind of reinforcement to join the team. If he doesn't want to go to Cleveland, maybe Los Angeles is a good choice."
These words did not directly answer the reporter's question. In fact, what was said was equal to what was not said.
But what can be done? After all, Yuan Qingshan is just a player and cannot interfere with the management's operations, let alone a chaotic management like the Lakers.
It is said that the regular season is coming to an end, and the players have not seen Kupchak a few times at all, let alone Jim Buss.
This state is chaos and strangeness.
At the end of the post-match interview, Whiteside chased Yuan Qingshan to ask about Joe Johnson. Yuan Qingshan had no answer, but told him to talk to Coach Scott tomorrow, otherwise, we would not be familiar with Manager Kupchak.
When Yuan Qingshan returned to the villa, Rachel was already asleep. Instead of waking Rachel up, he went to the lobby on the first floor and called LeBron James.
James admitted frankly that he was indeed persuading Joe Johnson, but the other party didn't seem to be very tempted. Cleveland is too small. No matter whether he succeeds in winning the championship this year, Joe will not be able to stay next year.
James feels that Joe still wants to find a place with both strength and retirement in one step.
In other words, these two conditions seem to be unsuitable for the Lakers. They have not entered the playoffs for several years. Although this year is very strong, it cannot be said that they can win the championship in one step.
As for the pension, the management means that they want to rejuvenate the lineup, and it is unlikely to give a veteran over 30 a few years to the middle class.
Come on, it's over.
James advised Yuan Qingshan not to get too involved in the drama, the NBA is just a business, he played so well this season, maybe he will be traded as a bargaining chip in the summer.
What a mouthful of poisonous milk.
"Thank you!" Yuan Qingshan said angrily.
James giggled and hung up the phone with a smile. He never gave up the idea of getting Yuan Qingshan, especially after Tyronn Lue became the head coach, the two quickly reached a consensus on this point.
"This summer, we must find a way to get him!"
LeBron James sat on the sofa, took a sip of red wine, and began to build a blueprint for the future in his mind.
Little did he know that while he was thinking about Yuan Qingshan, he had already become the other party's prey...
