When pride still matters

Chapter 298 Until Fry hates you

"I can answer some questions."

James' behavior raised eyebrows.

The magician saw Dr. J in him, and Dr. J seemed to be looking at his younger self.

West was still thinking about Yu Fei's words just now. That man easily tore up the press conference and turned this event of inheriting the torch into a battlefield.

It's like Frye Yu, who wants James to win the bloody crown in the "Sports Illustrated" article, has come into reality.

But it was not James who was bleeding, but Jordan, who really owned the crown.

After inflicting severe damage on Jordan, Yu Fei walked away. Jordan did not want to stay at the scene anymore, but James felt that he had the responsibility to save the scene, just like he usually showed, he took the initiative to speak to the media.

Kobe, whose reaction was a beat slower, looked at James with complicated eyes.

As one of the three young people qualified to accept the torch, he has the most seniority. If there is anyone who should be saved the most, it is him.

But he still took a step slower.

After all, he never learned how to get along with the media.

James' words immediately aroused a reaction from the scene. Lynn Sweet, the female reporter who triggered the "War of the Worlds" asked: "LeBron, this is my last question today. For a long time, professional basketball has been dissatisfied with women's rights." Respect has been under attack from the outside, what do you think about this?”

"Well, I oppose all sex discrimination." James easily rounded the corner, "You know, I have always supported women in defending their basic rights."

Linn ended his question and turned to leave.

However, there was a large group of reporters and TV people at the scene who expressed their anger that Lynn provoked Jordan and Yu Fei stepped forward to fight back against the former, causing the situation to get out of control.

"Damn Bitch!" one of Jordan's media friends said angrily, "Can't Michael enjoy his own life?"

"Yes, her question has nothing to do with sports at all!"

The reporter's reaction impacted James as much as what Yu Fei had just done.

Jordan's reckless treatment of Lynn not only failed to arouse their indignation, but also made them angry that this colleague who usually did not cover sports at all caused them to lose an opportunity to interview Jordan and Yu Fei.

Jordan just didn't respect Lynn at all.

Yu Fei also has no respect for the media at all.

But they did not express their anger at these two people, but questioned Lin En's intentions.

Why is this happening? James was sure that if he did the same thing, the image he had created of Mr. Perfect would collapse.

For the little emperor, what happened today had too much to think about.

But he still felt he needed to save the situation.

"Do you still have any questions?" James said with a smile, "I hope you can ask some sports-related questions."

Then, reporters who missed the opportunity to interview Jordan and Yu Jie had to ask James alternative questions.

"What do you think about MJ passing the torch to you?"

James thought of Yu Fei's dismissive attitude towards the torch and had doubts about the answer "I feel honored", but after thinking for a long time, he still answered: "This is my honor. I am from the generation who grew up watching Michael's games. For me, nothing is more important than this!”

Then, Quint DeMeo from "BBF" got permission from James to ask questions. He stood up wearing a dog tag and asked with a smile: "LeBron, the recent thing about Frye wanting your blood to dye his crown red It has always been a hot topic among fans, what do you think of this sentence?"

BBF

James' outstanding eyesight allowed him to see Dimeo's dog tag clearly without getting close. He knew it was a company owned by Yu Fei.

Since the article came out, James has avoided talking about it, lest the impact continue to spread.

But now, it seems there is no way to escape.

What dissatisfied James was why people from Frye's company would appear here to ask him this damn question.

"I need to know more details," James said. "I don't know what happened."

DiMeo laughed and said: "The whole story is not complicated. Gary Smith asked Frye if your relationship with him would be an obstacle if we met in the playoffs, and then he gave this answer. LeBron, What would you do if it were you?"

James replied cautiously: "The relationship off the court will not affect our efforts to go all out on the court."

"So, what do you think about Fry's comments about the Torch?"

Throwing a torch in Jordan's face?

James was furious, and now he just wanted to throw this question in Demeo's face.

Hotels

Unsurprisingly, the conflict between Yu Fei and Jordan broke out on the spot and swept the headlines of sports websites.

All of ESPN's sports writers wrote an article about it.

"Quint isn't back yet?"

Yu Fei asked.

"Well, he is still at the scene." Lin Kaiwen said, "But there is news from the league. They think it is best for you to hold a press conference to give a brief explanation."

"I'll tell you what the fuck#@￥%" Yu Fei said rudely, "Since they arranged me and that person together, they should have expected this result." Lin Kaiwen said with a smile: "In terms of hype, the carnival was a success. .”

Half an hour later, Demeo came back.

He briefly introduced today's situation to Yu Fei.

Lynn Sweet was the one who arranged it. After all, this was the first time the carnival was held, and the personal identity of visiting media reporters was not strictly scrutinized.

According to a "Washington Post" sports reporter at the scene, he was also surprised by Lynn's arrival.

Because this woman always reports on serious social issues.

If such a person were to interview a star, of course she would just do what she usually does, clinging to scandals that sports reporters would not mention a word about.

"Well done." Yu Fei praised Dimeo's work and then asked, "Did anything happen at the scene after I left?"

"MJ also left, and then I asked LeBron a few questions about the crown." DeMeo laughed, "He was very unhappy."

Yu Fei knew that the people around him would never let go of Xiao Zhan's eye drops if they had the opportunity.

"Don't cause trouble for him." Yu Fei said, "It's not easy for him either."

It's really not easy for James recently.

The Cavaliers' record has steadily improved. He entered the MVP discussion with an average of 31+8+8 per game. He seemed to be the savior of Cleveland. Then Yu Fei's words made the headlines. He came to the All-Star Weekend just now. After taking the torch from GOAT, Yu Fei grabbed it and threw it into GOAT's face.

Especially the second thing, which was a purely unintentional disaster and was the additional damage caused by Yu Fei's entire behavior.

DeMeo laughed and said, "It's okay. Didn't he take over the torch from MJ? Isn't it enough for him? Now Nike can make LeBron get rid of you and tie up MJ to build momentum for him."

Yu Fei just hummed and said nothing.

It is impossible to get rid of him and tie Jordan up to hype him up.

Because James' target was Jordan at the beginning. If Da Fei did not come out to grab the script, James would no longer be Jordan's successor, but a contender for the throne.

It is precisely because of Yu Fei's existence that these two incompatible forces have become closer.

The Jordan camp needs the rise of James to separate Yu Fei's edge and reduce the pressure on Jordan. And James, who is on his way up, has reaped the dividends of being tied up and flying, and now he needs to cut it apart to prevent the outside world from comparing the two people who currently have a disparity in honors. The best way now is to accept Jordan's torch and become Jordan's successor legitimately. Take another track.

But this can only be wishful thinking on the part of the James camp.

The hype for the new generation of duos has entered deep water, and the public has evolved from "Two heroes? Are you too proud to be too fake?" to "LeBron is not worthy of giving Fletcher's shoes" - "How can the big brother let the younger brother blood-stain the crown? Frye is such a hypocrite.”

Once everyone completes the transition from questioning to believing, it will be difficult to cut.

Sha Yi can't get rid of the image of Bai Zhantang in his life, just like Hatano Shirei, even though she looks more and more like Mikami Yua on the cover, everyone still regards her as the Kurosawa Shirei of the dark world.

Inertia and inherent knowledge are irresistible.

"Torch?" Yu Fei said jokingly, "That person once thought that Kwame would become the best player of our generation, but it didn't take long for this expectation to be withdrawn."

Lawson, who experienced that year, has a lot to say about this matter. He said in a sarcastic tone: "What's interesting is that when Da Fei really showed the greatest potential among players of this generation, our GOAT Dafei was traded because Dafei threatened his position. So, what if LeBron hugs his lap? As long as LeBron wants to go further, they will have to break up sooner or later."

Kevin Lin is worried about the James camp and Jordan camp joining forces.

"If they really cooperate, the energy contained in it is simply unimaginable." Kevin Lin said, "Michael's power is still very influential, and LeBron is a rising star that Nike has made a big bet on promoting, and he enjoys all of Nike's resources. .”

Yu Fei asked: "So?"

Kevin Lin glanced at Dimeo, "Quint will be under a lot of pressure."

"LeBron knows my relationship with that person. From what I know about him, he should just want to release goodwill towards GOAT, so I don't think they will really cooperate."

Yu Fei couldn't believe that James would take the initiative to become another spokesperson for No. 23 on the basketball court in order to reduce pressure.

From the moment he debuted, he actually had only one mission, and that was to surpass No. 23.

However, the world has become different because of Yu Fei's appearance.

"What if they cooperate?" Kevin Lin asked, "What if he becomes Jordan's spokesperson on the court, or even his incarnation?"

"Oh" Yu Fei's smile evoked a scary smile, "Then he is no longer my little brother."

In just a moment, Yu Fei's closest friends in the world all noticed the storm in his pupils, and he seemed to have imagined that day coming.

Although this is unlikely to happen, they all expect LeBron to make such a choice.

LeBron, you haven't seen the real "Fry Hell" yet.

Run, chase, you can't do it without Michael, take that step bravely and see the real "Fry Hell".

Until Fry hates you,

Hell will appear.
