Chapter 8 He Became a Heartthrob
"Let him introduce himself." Kahon said and moved the microphone to Tang Tian.
This is the first time Tang Tian has appeared in public, and it is also an opportunity for him.
"My name is Tang Tian, you can call me Tang, or Tian, but don't call me Tian Tang. That means heaven in Chinese. You know that's not a very good word."
As soon as Tang Tian opened his mouth, the reporters below burst into laughter.
Kahon also smiled.
He was originally worried that Tang Tian would be too nervous to speak, but he didn't expect this self-introduction to be so humorous, it seemed that his worries were completely unnecessary.
"Someone said you were the team's caddie during the game, is that true?" the reporter asked.
This issue is a bit sensitive, and other reporters all looked at him.
"It used to be, but Coach Kahun recruited me into the team two months ago. I'm now an official school team member." Tang Tian replied calmly. Looks quite comfortable.
"But we didn't see you on the school's website," the reporter reminded.
Only players with scholarships are listed on the school's website. This is a customary thing, and the reporter's words obviously contain words.
Kahon was about to take the microphone to block the reporter's questions.
"I'm the team's secret weapon. If there was me on it, I might not be able to win tonight's game." Tang Tian replied with a smile.
The reporters in the audience laughed again.
This answer is hilarious.
Kahong couldn't help but turn his head to look at Tang Tian. How could he feel that this 18-year-old boy was as calm as him at the press conference?
"Just kidding, because I just joined the team, it is normal for the website to not be updated in time." Tang Tian continued.
This is neither arrogant nor humble, and the reporter who said it is speechless.
"Coach, what is the key to the team's victory tonight?" After asking Tang Tian, the second reporter who was asked to ask the question turned to Kahon.
"Defense, the opponent scored 39 points in the first half, but only scored 22 points in the second half. Tang brought us energy on the defensive end, and we also played a team-type defense." Kahon had expected the press conference to ask. This is a very smooth answer.
After he finished speaking, the reporter pointed a long gun and a short cannon at Tang Tian and shot wildly.
Kahon named Tang Tian's name alone, indicating that he was quite satisfied with his performance!
The reporter asked several questions one after another.
After questioning Kahon, they turned their attention to Walker again.
"26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, what made you play so well tonight?"
"I know the team needs me to score, they need me to play offensively, and I've been doing that, and I've always wanted to lead the team to win, whether it's tonight, tomorrow night, or someday. At night, I'm the same." Walker answered very seriously, which is also his attitude towards the game.
"Your performance in the first few games was indeed just as good, but tonight the team won." The reporter took over.
"Yeah, like the coach said, we did a good job defending tonight, Don gave us energy on the defensive end, he inspired us, and yeah, he was the key to the win tonight. ." Walker said with a smile.
Walker also mentioned Tang Tian!
And that he is the key to the team's victory!
Below is another flash of the spotlight.
It is conceivable that in the major newspapers after the game, the name Tang Tian will appear in the most conspicuous position.
After the press conference, Tang Tian and Walker went to the locker room to take a shower.
The teammates hadn't left yet. When they saw them coming back, they shouted and shouted. Napier, who was extroverted, rushed over and jumped on Tang Tian to ask for a princess hug.
The locker room was full of laughter, which was completely different from the cloudy scene in the previous training hall.
In basketball, winning is always the most effective way to solve problems.
After coming out of the locker room, Tang Tian did not go back to the dormitory immediately, but ran around the stadium for a dozen laps.
In the past two months, in addition to training with the team, he has been training his physical fitness in his own way.
Although he has systematic basketball skills now, but without physical fitness, he cannot exert the full strength of his skills.
Although there is a game today, proper training is still necessary.
After the run was over, he wiped his sweat and walked back to the dormitory through the already silent campus.
However, as soon as he entered the dormitory, he attracted a piercing scream from his roommates.
"Tang, you are a member of the school team? Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"Tang, your defense against Butler is really cool. How did you do it?"
"Tang, you came back so late, did you go on a date with some woman?"
...
"Shh, keep your voice down, everyone else is sleeping so late." Tang Tian made a silent gesture.
Hearing what he said, the roommate turned around and closed the door, and continued to ask in a low voice.
Tang Tian answered at this time.
"I couldn't even play before. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you to know that I'm on the school team?"
"It's like I'm not handsome when I'm not guarding Butler."
"Dating does not exist, I will never go on a date in this life, if you are interested in opening a room directly."
...
"..."
Tang Tian's answer made his roommates feel ashamed, and they suddenly found that Tang Tian was much more humorous today than before.
"Okay, let's play with you. Butler doesn't feel good tonight, so I can't be too complacent, so I went to the playground to run a dozen laps to recognize myself. I'm still sweating, I have to take a shower. ."
Tang Tian finished speaking with a smile, and then went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
"Cut~"
His words immediately drew a disdainful voice from his roommate.
"Wow, there are women who add me ins! I'm finally ending my single life!" While taking a shower, Tang Tian heard the shouting from his roommate outside.
He was speechless for a while, the quality of the Americans is really low, and he likes to yell in the middle of the night, and he doesn't even listen.
"Uh, he asked me for Tang's contact information..."
"Haha~"
"Shh, my girlfriend is calling, be quiet."
The only roommate who had a girlfriend said, and the dormitory suddenly became much quieter.
"Fuck!"
After more than ten minutes, he came back from the balcony yelling.
"What's wrong?"
"My girlfriend asked me for Tang's contact information!"
"Haha!" There was a tragic laughter like killing a pig.
...
Tang Tian couldn't help laughing in the bathroom.
I have been a coach all my life in my previous life, and I have never experienced how a player lives. Only when I arrived on campus did I realize that being a basketball player is so interesting, especially the NCAA basketball atmosphere, which is really a very good experience.
I haven’t signed a contract yet, so I’ll start with a little more, if I recommend it, I’ll make more, and when it’s on the shelves, it will explode.
