Chapter 342 Lin Long's righteous speech! Orlando is not worthy of the championship!
The score of 110:79 is not worthy of the Celtics' excitement. They swept their opponents for the second consecutive round to enter the Eastern Conference finals, and did not make the Celtics very happy. These are all they have already planned.
On the contrary, the defection of the Orlando fans and no lower limit made them somewhat disillusioned.
Athletes eat the meal of youth, and their peak is only a few years. As long as they are people, there are peaks and valleys.
Hardaway once dedicated everything for the Magic, but when he did everything, all that greeted and waited for him were ridicule and abuse, which made the Celtics players somewhat uncomfortable.
Especially when Barkley, the former Philadelphia hero, also experienced being abandoned by the city, and when he was despised by the Philadelphia media as unworthy of the MVP, it was inevitable that there would be some sadness.
Therefore, after the party game, the Celtics generals stepped forward to comfort the Magic generals and let them not be too sad.
Hardaway's face was ashen, his eyes were blank, and he looked around aimlessly. Lin Long could imagine the helplessness and pain in Hardaway's heart at this moment. He's had a conflict with the guy.
"Anfernee, it's not worth it." Lin Long said sincerely: "Your effort is not worth it, I think, you should go to find a place that is worthy of you.
"Forget it, I don't care anymore." Hadaway smiled miserably.
Lin Long can see in his eyes, there is no brilliance, no confidence and courage when he first met him last year.
Lin Long didn't speak any more, just sighed, turned around and entered the player tunnel, and went to the post-match press conference.
During the normal press conference, Lin Long was uncharacteristically full of laughter and witty words. His expression looked as if the Celtics lost 30 points in this game. The abnormality made the reporters very puzzled, but no one wanted to touch this bad guy and ask Lin Long what was wrong. The reporters were all afraid of angering Lin Long, and they would be remembered by him in the future. Get the news.
The Orlando local reporter, who has only one internship period, did not quite understand the unspoken rules, raised his hand and said: "Lin, I can see that you are not very happy tonight, but you just swept the opponent and successfully squeezed into the Eastern Conference finals. , what makes you look so, um, so unhappy?"
"Because of the Orlando fans."
Lin Long didn't hide it. If no one mentions this kind of thing, it is not Lin Long's own business, nor his friends' business. Although it will affect his mood, Lin Long is not going to bring it up.
But now that someone has asked, Lin Long will naturally not hold it in his heart anymore. He has never been the kind of person who wronged himself.
"Orlando fans didn't do anything for their team in this game, I didn't hear or see the fans standing with their home team and fighting together, it's your team, if you don't Love them, what can a player do for the fans?
"Yes, of course I know that consecutive defeats will break the hearts of fans, being swept out will break the hearts of fans, you can not watch the game, you can also be silent during the game, or even cheer on the opponent, these I It is understandable, but these should have a limit and a bottom line!
"Players are not trash cans for you to vent your emotions on, or puppets for you to play with. Listen, listen to how the Orlando fans yelled at Hardaway? How did they insult Armstrong? And how did Anderson make it sound like A bitch on the street? What did they do wrong? With the hope of a city, they tried their best to take the team to the second round, just because they couldn't beat us, are they going to be insulted by you?"
"Especially Anfernee, as we all know, I don't have a good relationship with him, we are not friends at all, we even hate each other, but why did Anfernee become what he is today? Because he doesn't train, doesn't Diligent? Was it because he touched something dangerous that caused his state to plummet? Is it because he was addicted to nightclubs and alcohol?
"No, of course it's not because of that! It's because he gave everything for the fans of Orlando! It's because he's forced to play several times when the injury is not good for the hope of Orlando, because he thinks the fans love him. , so he is willing to give everything!"
"But how did the fans repay Anfernee? Boos, abuse and insults to his family? How dare you shout that you want Shaq? Who was the one who forced Shaq away? What an idiot? What the Orlando fans did today, makes me believe that everything they got is deserved!
"If I were a free agent, I would never come to Orlando! If I were Anfernee, I would definitely leave when my contract expires this year! There will be more places where he should work hard and worthy of his love! I also A word of advice to all the players here, guys, when you have an injury, when someone convinces you with team records, city honors, and fans expect that kind of stuff."
"Think about it, is it worth it! Is it worth it to spend your short youth and peak period, to give everything!
Lin Long's long speeches shocked the reporters present without saying a word.
In the entire NBA, no one has ever accused the audience in such a face to face, after all, the audience is their parents.
No one has ever spoken out so much for their opponents.
But after a long time, the scene broke out into warm applause.
Although the reporters are not players, they can understand Lin Long's meaning and agree with his expression!
It's Magic fans doing it for themselves!
This paragraph of Lin Long's speech, through the live broadcast, spread to every corner of the United States in the first time. Almost all players who saw this interview applauded Lin Long from the bottom of their hearts.
Lin Long speaks their minds!
490 and many people suddenly remembered at this time.
Lin Long is more than just a Celtics player.
He is also the president of the NBA Players Association!
A competent chairman who works for the player's welfare rather than a temporary job.
When the applause slowly dissipated, the young reporter stood up again and asked, "So, do you think players should play for themselves, not for fans, and shouldn't play with injuries?"
"I didn't say it!" Lin Long said with no regard for the media's harassment: "I mean, some media and management are not worthy of the players fighting everything for them. And for the regular season, for certain games It is irrational to play closed or forcibly play if the victory is won.
"If it's the tiebreaker of the finals, then unless you bury me in the ground, I'm definitely going to be on the court and fight!39
After Lin Long said this, he didn't give the reporter another chance to continue asking questions to make things difficult for him.
I have already said what I want to say, and my heart is much smoother.
After all, the relationship between Orlando and Hardaway has nothing to do with Lin Long.
Lin Long, who left the press conference, was surprised to see Hardaway waiting there at the door.
The former talented player, Jordan's successor, who was called the most talented first-team player in the league, was full of gratitude at this time. Seeing Lin Long coming out, Hardaway hugged Lin Long enthusiastically and said: " Thank you, thank you Lin! Thank you for everything you do for me."
