Skiles' words still had a certain effect. At least, the expressions of the Bulls players were no longer as depressed as before.
Seeing that the Bulls players were finally able to face defeat and feel better, Skiles was also sincerely happy.
"Okay, boys, one failure is nothing. Now go take a shower and then go home and have a good sleep!"
After Skiles said this, he waved to all the Bulls players.
But immediately, before the Bulls players could get up, Skiles continued: "Tomorrow, continue training. Since we failed, we have to find out the reasons for our failure and where we are inferior to the other party. Then,
We need to improve. Next time we see them, we must destroy them!"
Skiles' words did not make the Bulls players resentful or even complain.
On the contrary, his words aroused the militancy in the hearts of the Bulls players.
"Destroy them. Destroy them!"
Many Bulls players raised their hands together and shouted loudly.
Seeing that the pain of a failure turned into motivation to move forward, Scales was extremely happy. It seemed that there was nothing difficult about facing failure.
He glanced at Chen Jie, smiled and said, "Come to the press conference with me later!"
……………………………………………………………………………………
Skiles originally thought that failure would be difficult to face, but now, he has made the Bulls players accept defeat one by one. And they are all confident in continuing to improve. Skiles feels.
Is there anything in this world that we can’t face anymore?
But soon, he discovered that he was wrong.
It turns out that there is another thing that is more difficult to face than failure, and this kind of thing is journalists.
This season, the Bulls' victory is no longer news. Many times, when the Bulls win beautifully, it is difficult to attract reporters' attention.
This has become a common thing.
Today, the Bulls lost to the Pistons at home. This is definitely news.
The Bulls, who had not lost in four away games in the Western Conference, actually lost at home today. Reporters wanted to know what Bulls head coach Skiles and main player Chen Jie would say.
In addition, this game was broadcast live across the United States, so there were already many reporters coming to Chicago, and because of the Bulls' rare defeat, the press conference room was crowded with reporters today.
When they walked into the press conference room, Scales and Chen Jie were shocked by the scene.
When they saw Chen Jie and Scales walking in, the reporters were like sharks smelling something fishy, and they all became energetic.
They are not religious men and women. Today, they carefully prepared a lot of questions.
However, there are press conference rules. Although these reporters want to ask their own questions now and see how Chen Jie and Scales will answer, they still have to wait for the procedure.
Finally, the press officer said, now you can ask questions.
Then, one by one their arms were raised.
"I want to ask Mr. Jayshawn, just yesterday, you still vowed that you could lead the Bulls back to the peak of the year, but today, you lost to the Pistons. What do you think about this matter?"
This first question is so tricky.
When Scales heard this question, his expression changed, and he couldn't help but look at the reporter angrily.
There is no doubt that this reporter's question is aimed at Chen Jie.
He just wanted to mock Chen Jie.
Although his questions were quite formal, the meaning behind his words was obvious.
Yesterday you were bragging about how great the Bulls would be, but today, you lost. Is this a slap in the face, Mr. Jeshawn?
Chen Jie also looked very embarrassed.
Yesterday's news made Chen Jie very unhappy. Unexpectedly, today, this reporter would even use it to make an argument, which made Chen Jie even more unhappy.
He glanced at the reporter and found that the reporter was elated and seemed to be very satisfied with the question he asked.
Chen Jie couldn't help but become even more angry.
"Which newspaper do you belong to?" Chen Jie did not answer the reporter's question, but asked first.
"The New York Times!" This reporter proudly announced his home. After all, the New York Times is also a well-known newspaper. In the United States, it can definitely be ranked among the top ten.
"Very good, the New York Times, a big newspaper!" Chen Jie sighed, but his face was cold and there was no smile.
The reporter hadn't noticed that Chen Jie was really angry, and was still complacently saying: "It's just normal. Mr. Jie Xiaoxiao, please answer my question!"
"To answer your question, what question did you ask?" Chen Jie looked at the New York Times reporter and asked coldly.
As soon as he said this, the whole stadium was in an uproar. Did this Chen Jie lose the game and lose stupidly? People just asked him about it, and it was only a few minutes ago. Should he forget it now? It shouldn't be!
However, there is no way. Since Chen Jie said this, this reporter has to say it again.
"I want to ask, Mr. Jayshawn, yesterday you said that you would lead the Bulls back to the peak of the year, but today, you lost to the Pistons. Now, do you still have the same confidence as yesterday?"
"Do you think I should have one?" Chen Jie still didn't answer, but asked instead.
When Scales next to him saw Chen Jie like this, he knew that Chen Jie must have an idea to deal with this reporter, so he did not interrupt and quietly watched the confrontation between Chen Jie and this reporter.
This reporter from the New York Times asked this question just to mock Chen Jie. When Chen Jie asked this question, of course he would not say something like "You should have something".
However, the reporter is a reporter after all, and he is not a ruffian. It is impossible to directly ridicule Chen Jie. What he said is still very high-level.
"I think, Mr. Jeshawn, although your performance is obvious to all, and the Chicago Bulls' recent performance is not bad, tonight's game proved that your strength is not as strong as you thought, so I think,
Mr. Jayshawn, isn't it a little too early for you to say that?" What the New York Times reporter said made several reporters nearby who had nothing to do with the Bulls praise and nod in agreement.
The pro-Bulls media, especially the local media in Chicago, was very angry.
What is this? We just lost one game, denying our strength? Even Michael's Bulls lost ten games in the season when they won 72 games!
Are we denying our strength just because of such a game? This is too unreasonable?
The Chicago media were angry, but they couldn't argue, and their faces turned red from holding back.
"Really? Now you think we have no strength? But a few days ago, didn't you still say that Chicago has risen? It's you who say we can do it, and it's you who say we can't. I really don't know what you think.
Damn it!" Chen Jie glanced at the New York Times reporter and responded coldly.
His words left the New York Times reporter speechless.
Indeed, the New York Times has done many special issues on the rise of Chicago, and even said that Chicago has vaguely seen the outlines of a dynasty.
And now, as a member of the New York Times, I am denying Chicago's strength, which is indeed a bit erratic.
Although the media make a living by news, many opinions are often repeated, but they are all private and are said on the stage. There is not much face.
The New York Times reporter suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Taking a look at Chen Jie's sneer face, he suddenly realized that this kid might have had this in mind when he asked where he was a reporter just now.
If he hadn't said anything, he wouldn't have had such a counterattack.
Damn, this guy is so insidious.
Just when the New York Times reporter looked at Chen Jie and cursed in his heart, Chen Jie spoke again.
He is not a good person and would not save face for a New York Times reporter! (To be continued...)
