Chapter 213: Arrogance Undying
After the game, Yang Mo took the initiative to find ESPN's beautiful reporter Andrews, took the microphone from her, pointed at the camera and said arrogantly: "Dear audience friends, let me inform you. My statistics in this game are 51 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks. And Stoudemire, who said before the game that he would beat me, scored 15 points, 6 rebounds and 1 block. Now do you know who is better between me and him? That's right, it's me, Yang Mo."
Yang Mo's words were extremely outrageous, but the audience had different reactions. Those who liked him thought he was too manly and overbearing, while those who didn't like him thought he was arrogant and brainless.
This is the effect Yang Mo wants to achieve. If you love me, please continue. If you hate me, please cheer up.
Yang Mo paused for a moment, then continued, "Maybe that guy will continue to find all kinds of excuses to cover up his failure, but I can tell Stoudemire clearly that whether it's in Miami or Phoenix, whether it's Monday or Sunday, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, I can beat him anytime, anywhere! Whether it's with basketball or fists."
Yang Mo said this arrogantly and turned to walk towards the locker room. The audience watching ESPN were dumbfounded, and it took them a while to react: Damn, isn't he too handsome?
This sentence directly caused Yang Mo's teenage fans to surge again. Young and frivolous people love this kind of domineering style. You don't accept it, right? I will beat you until you accept it.
As Yang Mo walked into the player tunnel, someone in the ESPN broadcast studio spoke after being stunned for a while.
"Yang...isn't this guy a little too arrogant? He actually dares to say such harsh words in front of the camera. Isn't he afraid that Stoudemire will really defeat him one day? Stoudemire is a top star and a regular All-Star!" ESPN host Hollins said with some concern for Yang Mo.
"It's not impossible, but I have to admit that the possibility is very small." Chris Webber shook his head, he had already admitted defeat. Yang Mo may not have defeated Stoudemire, but he had definitely conquered Chris Webber from the inside out, he was convinced of his defeat.
"Yang may not be a top star, but he is naturally good at restraining violent face-to-face power forwards like Stoudemire." Reggie Miller analyzed in detail: "Stoudemire can jump, but he can't run like Yang. He has strong explosive power, but Yang's strength completely crushes him. He can shoot, but Yang Mo can shoot better than him. In addition, Yang can play post-up, which Yang can't do, has a better rebounding sense than him, and his defensive talent is even more amazing than his. Stoudemire's only advantage is his height, but... Yang Mo's wingspan is not to be underestimated. So... Stoudemire will never be able to beat Yang now, later, or in the future."
"Is there really no possibility at all?" Hollins asked in surprise. He couldn't believe that the long-established violent power forward would be completely suppressed by the rookie.
"Yes." Chris Webber nodded and said, "Unless his dribbling can be as free and easy as mine, and his passing can be as spiritual as mine."
Chris Webber said this, and Reggie Miller rarely agreed: "Yes, Yang is afraid of about three types of players now. The first is Tim Duncan. The second is Kevin Garnett. The third is Chris Webber, a comprehensive and physically fit power forward. Unfortunately... there are only Duncan and Garnett in the league today, but no Chris Webber."
"What you mean is that this guy Yang may already be an All-Star player, right?" Hollins said with some disbelief.
"Why not?" Chris Webber shrugged his shoulders, looking as if it should be so.
"How many All-Stars can score 50+15? How many All-Stars' jerseys can be among the top five sold in the United States? How many All-Stars have the same appeal as Michael ? I can even say that as long as Yang keeps this progress for another three years, he is very likely to become the highest-earning star in the NBA. Far more than LeBron James!" Reggie Miller said very confidently.
"I believe that too. After all, he has the bonus of the Asian market." Hollins laughed.
"No, I'm talking about the American market." Reggie Miller corrected him very confidently: "LeBron doesn't have the ability to make people outside of basketball like him, but... Yang can. A single by 50cent directly made Yang the spokesperson for street teenagers. Many teenagers in the United States don't know what the NBA is, but they definitely know how to pronounce 'fuck'. They also know how many opponents Yang has knocked out on the court. That's enough, this is a powerful potential market."
"Is it really that powerful?" Hollins was still confused.
"Of course." Chris Webber added: "He is the guy who has been involved with the most female stars in the entertainment industry in the history of the NBA. I can guarantee that there will be a market for Yang to guest-star in a few movies with his appearance."
"I heard that Yang's status in South Korea is higher than their president, which is incredible."
"Well, after the introductions from both of you, I already know how great Yang is. Although I would like to continue listening, the director has already reminded me in the headset that I should end the live broadcast. That's it, dear audience friends, see you on Wednesday night." Hollins ended the live broadcast cleanly, leaving the audience with endless reverie. For example, they really wanted to know where Chris Webber went to treat Reggie Miller to dinner and how much money it would cost.
When ESPN ended the live broadcast, Yang Mo had already taken a shower in the locker room. When he came out of the shower, Pat Riley was already waiting there with a smile and gave him a big hug: "Yang, you are amazing. You are the biggest surprise in the draft in recent years besides Dwyane."
Yang Mo chuckled, turned around and gave a hug to Dwyane Wade next to him, then said with a smile: "This is all thanks to Dwyane. If he hadn't taught me how to break through, I would have been beaten black and blue by that guy tonight, and then I would have been humiliated and run back to my own country in disgrace."
Wade and Pat Riley were a little uncomfortable with Yang Mo speaking so modestly. Is this still the Yang Mo who integrated arrogance and arrogance into her hormones?
Wade was surprised, punched Yang Mo lightly on the chest, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect you to be so modest."
"I have always been very humble." Yang Mo laughed.
"Go to hell!" Wade couldn't help but give Yang Mo the middle finger. If Yang Mo was considered modest, he could be considered a saint. In fact, Pat Riley also wanted to give Yang Mo the middle finger, but due to the restrictions of gentlemanly manners and his identity as a general manager, he could only despise Yang Mo in his heart.
After despising Yang Mo, Dwyane Wade scratched his head awkwardly, then said to Yang Mo: "Actually, I didn't teach you anything. I just watched a movie about public speaking last night, and today I did an experiment on you to see if language can break a person's inner fear. Now you can see the result, the experiment was successful."
"You actually used me as an experiment?" Yang Mo was stunned.
"Otherwise! Do you really think breaking through is so easy? If it were so easy, why would people practice for a lifetime?" Dwyane Wade said angrily.
"Then how come I became so powerful all of a sudden?" Yang Mo asked in confusion and bewilderment.
"That's because you have good ball control. Coupled with your amazing speed and strong physique, you should be good at breaking through. My words helped you overcome your fear, and then you did it for the first time. Then your confidence grew stronger and stronger, and finally you were able to do it freely. This is very logical!"
After hearing what Wade said, Yang Mo suddenly felt as if she had been fooled.
But... I thought about it again, it seems that I didn't lose anything, but I found the confidence to break through. From now on, as long as I practice diligently and find my own rhythm, I will become a breakthrough master. After all, his hardware facilities are so good!
