After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 113 Ending the Losing Streak
Li Chengming didn't play again in the last time, and the score has been stretched to 18 points. In more than three minutes, as long as the Magic can control the rhythm, the opponent will be powerless.

Van Gundy even took Howard and Nelson down, letting Lewis lead the team to continue to find the feeling of the game.

Seeing that there was no hope of tying, Houston also chose to withdraw all the main players in about 2 minutes and conceded the loss.

The Magic also replaced all the substitutes, so Redick and Augustine both got the chance to play.

In the end, the opponent recovered a little point. At the end of the game, the Magic defeated Texas Xiaoqiang 106:95, ended their losing streak, and temporarily cleared the haze during this period.

Li Chengming's data is also fixed at 24 points, but it is still the highest score in the game. The rest is Wells' 21 points, and no one else has 20+ points.

Six players from the Magic scored in double figures. Bogans scored his first double-double of the season, 14+10. Lewis, Turkoglu and Doolin all scored 12 points. Howard scored 15 points and 13 rebounds.

休斯顿那边大姚18分17篮板4助攻3盖帽，麦迪19投6中只得到15分，阿尔斯通14分，巴蒂尔三分7中3得到9分，斯科拉4分7篮板。

After the game, Li Chengming naturally approached Dayao to continue the conversation, but he didn't have much time because he still needed to accept on-site interviews.

Because of the high-profile match, it was also broadcast live across the United States. ABC sent their gold medal reporter, and the first question they asked was how did Li Chengming and Dayao feel about the face-to-face match.

Li Chengming thought for a while and said, "My first thought was that he is too tall, like an insurmountable mountain..."

Li Chengming is used to this kind of flattery for his teammates or opponents after the game, not to mention the American media, the pride of his own country, he can be regarded as an idol in the past, and he can't say too much good things.

Of course, just like Howard, O'Neal, and Kobe, the more you are an idol, the more you want to beat you head-on.

"You and Yao didn't match up this time, will you be disappointed?"

Li Chengming raised his eyebrows, and then said with a smile, "Because that's Dwight's opponent..."

The reporter asked again: "Before this, do you understand Dwight's record and statistics against Yao?"

"Of course, so before the game started, he told me that he must beat Yao today, but the result can only be said to be [-]-[-]. Obviously Yao is not in a good state today, and Dwight always likes to be so positive. The impact, he is a very strong BOY."

"You didn't play in the fourth quarter of today's game. What's the reason?"

Li Chengming certainly knows how to answer this kind of question, "The coach told me that they have collapsed and don't need me to play anymore, and we have many other players who need to get a chance to play and they need to show themselves. And I, The coach's inspection of me should have ended."

The reporter also laughed when he heard this. If there is no special explanation, just look at Li Chengming's performance on the court and his statistics. Who would have thought that he is just a first-year rookie who joined the team this season. A pure rookie in the professional league?

Then the reporter talked about the current situation of the Magic team. Li Chengming said that they have got rid of the losing streak, and the next step is naturally to restart the winning streak.

Then the reporter thanked him for accepting the interview, and Li Chengming also thanked him and said goodbye.

After returning to the locker room, I celebrated with my teammates before taking a shower and changing clothes to attend the post-match press conference.

Today, Li Chengming, Howard and Turkoglu were interviewed together. Although the Turk was not feeling well today, he did a good job in defense and organization. He got 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.

At the press conference, everyone focused on the duel between Howard and Dayao, the relationship between Li Chengming and Dayao, Li Chengming's performance tonight, and the future goals of the Magic. The three of them also agreed. The team is still not at their best and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

The two big brothers also expressed their admiration for the rookie Li Chengming, thinking that he will be the best rookie this year.

Li Chengming also said that he was able to make such progress in this team. It is precisely because of the stars in the team that he can get better shots and can also cover up deficiencies in defense.

After exchanging business with them, the press conference was full of laughter and joy.

And when the press conference was over and his father came to find him, Li Chengming realized that the person with the blue shoes was waiting for him here.

……

"This time I really want to thank Dayao..."

Hearing his father's words on the way back, Li Chengming nodded in agreement.

The meeting with Blue Shoes this time was mainly to discuss Li Chengming's joining the national team.

According to the usual practice, the selection of the national team has their own set of evaluation methods, but in fact, the final interpretation is in their own hands.

It’s just that someone like Li Chengming has no previous experience in official domestic competitions and has never joined a youth team. If it weren’t for the fact that he first made a name for himself in the NBA and was under the pressure of public opinion and the general trend, this situation would still be First time encounter.

Naturally, they can't be treated with common sense, but the people in Blue Shoes also can't be treated with common sense, so they still want to use the old routine to deal with it, and it is Dayao who coordinates it.

As the only designated leader of the national team, Dayao's voice is no longer comparable to that of a few years ago. His achievements and influence make him also qualified to speak on Li Chengming's matter.

At the same time, he also knows what the addition of a player like Li Chengming means to the national team.

Moreover, some of Li Chengming's conditions are also reasonable in his opinion, such as the playing time and the number of games, he can't do it himself, because he has already been put on the rack, and he would even rather be tired and troublesome, but he can Create convenience for Li Chengming.

He didn't want a rising star like Li Chengming to suffer the same predicament as himself.

Moreover, Li Chengming is different from him, Dazhi, and Ah Lian. He has more choices, and even falling out will not affect him that much. At most, it is the change of domestic public opinion.

And he broke it apart and made it clear that the group of people in the blue shoes were not fools after all, and they still recognized the reality.

It is Li Chengming who is taking the initiative now, not them. Besides, it is not so easy to save face and face.

Of course, the quarrel is not very pleasant now. If Li Chengming can't bring them satisfactory results by then, it should be settled by then.

And because the things here were delayed, Li Chengming also asked for leave from the team. They went back first. Anyway, the next game was the day after tomorrow, and it was still at home. It would be the same when he went back tomorrow.

Of course, I also made it clear to the general manager that it was a matter related to the national team. As a rookie who just emerged, he couldn't let the team feel that his tail was up. It's better to make many things clear.

And after it is settled here, it is time to send news to the official announcement tomorrow, at least to reassure the hearts of domestic fans.

After all, many fans see that the better Li Chengming performs, the more he feels that he will not be able to be stable for a day without joining the national team. In addition, those domestic advertisers are probably waiting for this news. After all, what does this represent? It's all very different.
