Chapter 18 Post-match interview

"Longhorn! Longhorn!"

As a local team in Texas, the Longhorns have a slight home court advantage in Dallas.

The team's previous performance was extremely ugly, and the mood of the entire stadium became depressed.

Now, these spectators have seen the team's momentum of chasing points, and they have become excited.

For a while, Louisville's players seemed to be affected, and the most intuitive manifestation was the deformation of their movements.

You must know that their main players who once led by a large score have also rotated. Compared to the Longhorns, they are the side with the physical advantage.

The reason for this technical defect may be attributed to psychological reasons.

During the quarterfinals, the entire venue sold 18,000 tickets.

Imagine that when you score a goal, nearly 20,000 spectators boo you, and when you strike, everyone cheers.

These young men, who were only around 20 years old, were inevitably affected by the whole atmosphere.

Li Luo once again cooperated with Ford. He simply screened and rolled to create space, and then Ford took a long shot.

But the Louisville Cardinals seemed to have lost their minds. They didn't know what the Longhorns' finishing strategy was for this side.

Li Luo's downward cut after the pick-and-roll?

Or an open long shot?

Or is it a fake story?

When the Longhorns improved their morale and regained their touch, the basket was as wide as the sea. They could shoot whatever they wanted.

The whole team machine started to work, as if all the team members were starting to regain their previous inspiration. Ford even threw a no look pass when he scored suddenly.

He seemed to know that Li Luo would run to the bottom corner at that time. He passed the ball directly while running, and it was passed to Li Luo's hands as accurately as if there were eyes in the back of his head.

Of course Li Luo would not be polite to him, he raised the knife and hit a three-pointer!

83:87! There are five minutes left.

In such a short period of ten minutes, the score difference was recovered.

At this time, the opponent feels very confused.

Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?

The two teams are not at the same level of energy right now. The Longhorns here seem to be advancing all the way without even knowing they are lagging behind.

On the other side, Louisville originally planned to use up the advantageous point difference to preserve its energy to prepare for the semifinals. Who could have imagined that the game would suddenly change in the second half. In the first half, the Longhorns players who felt cold to the touch touched them during halftime.

The lava was so hot that each hand was about to burn.

With two minutes left in the game, the Longhorns finally overtook the score thanks to team efforts.

91:90

For a few minutes, the Cardinals fell into a scoring drought. They only managed to score two points with a free throw from a fight in the paint.

By now, the Longhorns have finally taken full control of the situation.

After taking the lead this time, they never let the Louisville Cardinals take the lead again.

"95:92! A great victory! Lee Lowe of the Texas Longhorns and his partners made this incredible comeback! Let us congratulate them for reaching the Final Four!"

The NCAA commentator reported the results of the game at the top of his lungs. It was obvious that he was very excited after watching this incredible comeback. He tried his best to restrain his urge to brag about Li Luo, but after the game, the data panel showed

During the broadcast, the commentator spared no effort in praising Li Luo:

"Look at this amazing kid from the Longhorns! 33 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists. Wow, almost a triple-double. If his players had performed better in the first half."

"But what can we say about this result? All teams will always enter a low period inexplicably, and great teams will find ways to win the game, just like today's Longhorns. Let us congratulate again.

This great team made the cut!"

Judging from the commentator's reaction, Luo Li has gained another fan. But Luo Li can't care about that now.

Because now all the team members, including Ford, lined up in a circle to surround Li Luo.

"Hey! Lee!" As the big brother of the team, Ford spoke:

"You give us a thank you in the locker room!"

"And now, we all want to thank you!"

With that said, everyone gathered around Li Luo to celebrate!

"We're not dead yet!"

I don’t know who in the team shouted this sentence, and then the whole team seemed to be infected, and the whole team started shouting:

"We're not dead yet!"

The Longhorns returned to the locker room, except for Li Luo, who now had to be interviewed.

As his record continues to improve, Li Luo's exposure also increases. On average, he has to deal with several waves of scouts and media from NBA teams every day.

In response to this, Coach Barnes specially asked someone to arrange a foreign media class.

To put it simply, it teaches you what to say and what not to say.

The media is a monster that relies on traffic for a living. Their reporters are so pervasive that there are hidden traps behind every question, just to increase sales for that little bit of controversy.

In the NBA's handling of the media, the person with the highest level is probably an old man named Zhan. Except for his improper decision-making, his media image has been good throughout his life.

And some people are really stupid here. How can there be any good results from criticizing the media? It is nothing more than attracting these flies.

In Li Luo's opinion, there are several types of questions during the post-match interview period. Take this post-match interview as an example:

The first is to discuss the content of the game itself, such as why the team felt cold today? How did you adjust.

Li Luo's honest answer was a polite and standard answer such as the whole team worked together and the feeling picked up in the second half.

And some questions are unkind,

A reporter asked after the game that the players gathered around Li Luo to express their gratitude. Does this mean that the core of this team is Li Luo? How far can Li Luo take them this time?

This kind of question is a typical trap question. If you answer yes, the media will immediately report the next day that there is discord in the team and a struggle for power.

If you want to answer No, all kinds of hypocrisy and words that lead Lo Lee fans to attack Ford will immediately attack you.

Li Luo was very tired of this. He just wanted to play basketball. He was only twenty years old. What was wrong with him? He really wanted to get rid of these trouble-making reporters.

But I sighed silently in my heart, pretending to be an idiot and answered speciously: "There is no so-called boss in our team. Each of us just silently completes the tasks assigned to us by the coach. We did not complete the first half well in this game, so we fell behind.

, but the second half was done well, so we won.”

The last type is the gossip-type media. This kind of media is harmless and easy, and can be regarded as side scraps of the competition. After answering gossip questions such as "Are you really a computer science student? A government-funded international student?", the media interview finally ended.

After taking a shower after the interview, Li Luo felt extremely tired. Today's excessive output had exhausted all his strength. After returning to the dormitory, he fell into bed and went to sleep. Wu Ke, who had stayed up late to do experiments and came back, helped him take off his shoes.

"Are these the top four?"

Li Luo murmured in his sleep.
