Li Tuanjie nodded at Xia Fangfei, indicating that he knew.

...

In the locker room of the Mavericks' home team, head coach Johnson commented on the performance of each player in this game. Although Li Tuanjie's performance was not perfect, it was very good for a rookie. Johnson specifically called the players A good compliment to Li Tuan.

I have to say that in terms of the atmosphere in the team's locker room, the Mavericks should rank among the top three in this league. In the Mavericks' locker room, although there are not so many jokes and laughter, there will definitely be no infighting When the power struggle happened, everyone knew that the absolute core of this team was Nowitzki, and as long as Nowitzki did not retire, he would always be the absolute core of the Mavericks!

After the team summary meeting after the game, Li Tuanjie was about to leave the arena, and Xia Fangfei was still waiting for him.

Wait, United, are you leaving now? Haha, you are the protagonist of the lore today, and you must show up at the press conference later! Coach Johnson saw that Li Tuanjie was about to leave, and quickly stopped he!

Press conference? ! Li Tuanjie was taken aback. Is he a newcomer qualified to attend the press conference? Isn't this the treatment of the core players of the team? !

...

Half an hour later, in the conference room of the American Airlines Center Arena, head coach Johnson cleared his throat and said with a smile to the numerous reporters in the audience.

Although today is just a preseason game, I am very satisfied with the performance of our Mavericks players, especially our rookie Li Tuanjie this year. It is really hard to believe that he is a new player with no NBA experience!

As we all know, the Mavericks experienced a lot of setbacks last season, so we have not held a rookie meeting for Li Tuanjie. Today, we will use this post-game press conference to hold a rookie meeting for Li Tuanjie. Well, if you have any questions, you can start asking questions!

...

As soon as Johnson said this, many reporters immediately raised their hands, ready to ask questions.

Dirk, will the loss in the finals last season affect you this season? I mean, will it affect your confidence! The first reporter stood up and asked.

Nowitzki is a little annoyed. These reporters really don’t know which pot to mention. Last season’s finals was the wound of Nowitzki. His performance in that round of the series was indeed not outstanding. If he can If the performance in the regular season is played, the Mavericks may not have the possibility of winning the championship!

Now the reporter's question is tantamount to sprinkling salt on Nowitzki's wound. Although Nowitzki usually looks polite, it doesn't mean he has no temper...

In the game between the Mavericks and the Suns, Dampier was completely blown away by the opponent's bully Stoudemire. Nowitzki couldn't contain his temper, and asked angrily, Our inside line was beaten How many goals did Stoudemire score? Thirty? Forty?!

...

Nowadays, the reporter's question irritated Nowitzki a bit, The protagonist of this press conference is our lore hero Li Tuanjie today. Please ask questions about me next time when you have a chance.

Nowitzki is still sensible, suppressing his anger, and did not explode!

Mr. Li Tuanjie, before the draft, there was a piece of negative news about you on the Internet. I believe you must be very clear about it. It is that you have a history of mental illness. May I take this opportunity today, do you need to clarify? A young female reporter looked at her and asked Li Tuanjie.

Li Tuan sighed in his heart. What should come is coming. When he was notified by Johnson to attend the press conference, he had already expected that reporters would definitely ask him this question.

After thinking for a while, Li Tuanjie frowned and said, I do know about the news you mentioned. It was reported by a sports reporter in China. I really want to clarify this misunderstanding...

To be precise, the confirmed case is indeed true, but it is not as serious as everyone thinks. I just have some depression, um, adolescent depression... Everyone knows that depression is a kind of mental illness. ...

Li Tuanjie said slowly, this statement was discussed with Xia Fangfei and the others.

The reporter who asked the question nodded. If it is really like what Li Tuanjie said, Li Tuanjie was 16 or 17 years old two years ago, was in adolescence, and suffered from puberty depression, which is nothing more than normal...

Depression is indeed a type of mental illness, but it is not taken seriously.

Moreover, Li Tuanjie has been with the Mavericks for so long, and when he was training with other teammates, no one felt that he had any mental problems from him!

Ahem, our team of Mavericks can prove that Li Tuanjie really has no mental problems. Haha, if he has to be said to be sick, I think he must have precocious puberty. The performance on the court is really too mature, so mature and calm that it is scary! Who would believe that this kid is only nineteen years old! Terry said a few words to help Li Tuanjie clarify.

That's right, Li Tuanjie is a stable and honest child. Our Mavericks will never allow any media to slander Li Tuanjie. Now that the issue of mental illness history has been clarified, if the media continue to hold on to this matter in the future, our Mavericks will definitely not let it go. We will definitely take legal measures to protect Li Tuanjie's legal rights... head coach Avery Johnson said to the reporters in the audience with a serious face.

...

I opened my mouth to clarify that it was adolescent depression, and my teammates also proved it. The head coach threatened...

Regarding the issue of Li Tuanjie's history of mental illness, it is basically equivalent to breaking the story. No reporter who is not savvy will continue to catch up on this topic...

Mr. Li Tuanjie, Yao Ming is your compatriot. At present, Yao Ming is already the top center player in the league. Will this cause you pressure? In your mind, what kind of player is Yao Ming?

Pressure, no no no, Yao Ming doesn't make me feel pressure, only motivation! Yao Ming is the top basketball player in our country. I will take him as my goal, train hard, and try to get closer to him in terms of strength as soon as possible. The gap! Li Tuanjie's emotional intelligence and eloquence are actually quite good, and he is extremely careful when speaking on this occasion, and he will definitely not say something offensive.

Johnson nodded with satisfaction. He has been in the NBA for many years. From his player career to his coaching career, he has seen countless rookies. Li Tuanjie's ability to adapt to the media made Johnson very satisfied.
