Chapter 131 Breaking the record, how beautiful is the big star next door
Lu Yu's last summer league game was not only full, but every corner of the field was also filled with scouts from various teams. They were responsible for analyzing Lu Yu's technical characteristics, especially the teams from the Eastern Conference.
.
This game has attracted everyone's attention even more than the regular season.
Even the tickets increased from five dollars a piece to eighty dollars a piece, and there were 15,000 fans at the scene, making the NBA league suddenly aware of Lu Yu's box office appeal.
Such a grand situation will occur, firstly, because Lu Yu is full of topics, and secondly, during this period of time, the major NBA stars have praised Lu Yu. Lu Yu's "good friend" Kobe and "senior brother" Stowe
Not to mention Cotton, Jordan's bitter rivals such as Isaiah Thomas, Gary Payton and Karl Malone also praised Lu Yu highly.
There is also a third reason, which is that Lu Yu's identity as a yellow race directly detonated Asian fans.
Suddenly the NBA saw the hope of opening up the Asian market, especially the Chinese market.
No one expected that this much-anticipated game would go downhill from the beginning.
The Mavericks defender was beaten into pieces by Lu Yu, making breakthroughs again and again, which made Mavericks head coach Don Nelson, who was sitting in the audience watching the game, so embarrassed that he picked out his toes.
The more I think about it, the more troubled I feel. If I hadn't been reluctant to make such a big deal, Lu Yu would be with the Mavericks by now.
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
Fortunately, the Mavericks have another Chinese player who can also carve up part of the Chinese market.
Moreover, Wang Zhizhi's reputation in China is higher than that of Lu Yu. This can comfort his boss Cuban and prevent him from holding on to Nielsen's mistakes.
However, Wang Zhizhi did not play in the summer league, and the fan bonus was taken away by Lu Yu, which was quite a loss.
Lu Yu's hands were very hot today and he could even hit the ball against the defense.
He played 30 minutes and scored 34 points, 7 assists, 4 steals and 9 rebounds.
In the last quarter, the Mavericks players' defensive actions became more and more intense. Cartwright prevented Lu Yu from getting injured, so he replaced Lu Yu as a spectator, which meant that Lu Yu ended all summer league games this summer.
The other players on the Bulls were average, especially since many of them were not on the Bulls' inspection list. Cartwright just let them play whatever they wanted. In the end, the Bulls narrowly defeated the Dallas Mavericks 97:93.
After the game, reporters rushed to interview Lu Yu. No one regarded him as a rookie. He was just like a superstar coming to the rookie village for a formality.
Many stars have played in summer league.
After Kobe was selected with the 13th overall pick and traded to the Lakers, he also participated in the Rocky Mountain Summer League that year. He was only eighteen years old that year. Facing those senior players, Kobe had no fear at all and averaged 100% per game.
Contributing 24.5 points and 5.3 rebounds to the team, Kobe has shown his star potential since then.
Well, this super luxurious data is still inferior to Lu Yu's data this time.
This is also the reason why so many teams pay attention to Lu Yu.
Duncan has also played in the summer league. In fact, if a team as arrogant as the Spurs is willing to spend a bad season competing for the No. 1 pick, then Duncan is probably the first and last player.
At that time, the Spurs took full care of Duncan like a baby, so in the summer league, Duncan only showed up to give an explanation to the fans who came for him.
Duncan only played 2 games for the team throughout the summer league, scoring 26 points, and then never chose to play in a game again.
However, even though he only played two games, Duncan's solid basic skills and impeccable inside offensive capabilities still impressed people.
Lu Yu's performance is better than Duncan and Kobe. Some people have begun to predict that Lu Yu will soon show his prominence, but some people are throwing cold water because Lu Yu has not yet tried a real NBA confrontation.
They are not optimistic that Lu Yu's body can withstand NBA confrontation.
Lu Yu, who was surrounded by reporters, did not joke like he did when interviewing Jenny a few days ago, because this was the last summer league game. He chose to seriously and solemnly thank the team and the coaching staff, and looked forward to the future.
Fight side by side with your teammates.
He always has to leave a good impression on his future teammates. After all, this is the 2001 Bulls.
A team with some of the best players in NBA history.
"Lu, congratulations, you broke the NBA Summer League record!" Interviewer Jenny took out a piece of statistics and said to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment.
The reporters around were also stunned for a moment.
Because no one paid attention to the summer league records, and Lu Yu had just finished playing this game, although the statistics had come out, they had not yet had time to make a horizontal comparison.
When the reporters saw Jenny taking out Lu Yu's statistics, they couldn't help but gasp.
Except for the game against the Grizzlies, in which Lu Yu only played two minutes, in the four games Lu Yu actually played, he averaged 30.25 points per game, setting a summer league record.
Even Iverson has not achieved such data. You must know that Iverson was the number one pick of the 1996 golden generation, but Lu Yu was only the second pick. This will once again make Jordan's draft vision criticized by fans.
Lu Yu scored 47 points in a single game before, also creating the first score in a single game in the Summer League.
What's more, he scored 34 points in another game.
Reporters all thought that if Lu Yu hadn't kept improving assist data in the previous two games, I'm afraid Lu Yu's scoring average would have been even more terrifying.
You must know that in the first two games, Lu Yu received a total of 30 assists.
Lu Yu has set a terrifying record. With this performance, Lu Yu is enough to become a household name among fans across the United States.
Jenny wanted to ask more questions, but Lu Yu interrupted her question: "I'm sorry, today's interview can only end here. If you want to interview me, you can call me at night... I'm just kidding, mine.
It means I can wait until the press conference when I officially join the Bulls."
Lu Yu ended the interview after teasing Jenny for a while.
When a new player joins the team, there will be a promotional press conference. At that time, Lu Yu will attend together with the new players who joined the team this year, including boxing champion Tyson Chandler.
In the evening, Lu Yu stayed in the hotel to rest. Jessica called and the two chatted for almost an hour.
When she was about to hang up the phone, Jessica suddenly said: "Lu Yu, when you come back next time, I want to take you to meet my parents."
"What?"
Lu Yu's sleepy eyes suddenly opened and rounded: "There's no need to meet your parents. You haven't graduated yet. They know that our relationship is not good, right?"
Jessica seemed a little shy: "At worst, we will get married after I graduate..."
"Marriage? Hang up, hang up, I don't want to have nightmares at night."
Lu Yu hung up the phone without hesitation.
Jessica on the other side curled her lips at the phone: "Do you think you can escape? Bastard!"
Lu Yu hung up the phone and the phone rang immediately.
"Lu, I've been calling you for a long time, but I haven't gotten through. Are you very busy..." Anne Hathaway asked in a low voice.
Lu Yu smiled and said: "I was just discussing with Coach Bill when to return to Chicago."
"Are you coming back?"
Anne Hathaway said in surprise: "It's great. I would be bored to death here alone. Fortunately, the sister in the house next door has not been filming during this time and has been chatting with me. By the way, the owner of the house next door
She is a big star, a very beautiful star."
Perhaps after hearing the news that Lu Yu was coming back, Annie started talking more.
Lu Yu's focus was a little different, so he just pretended to ask casually.
