Guard With a Knife

~: 91: [CCTV Interview]

   Not all of Doug’s CCTV team came from the sports channel.

   Recently, CCTV is making a special report on ‘Chinese Youth in the New Era’. Coupled with the fact that the distance to the 2008 Olympic Games is getting closer, the proportion of sports reports is obviously increasing.

   At this time, Du Ge turned out just right. He opened up his popularity in American college basketball at the speed of a rocket soaring. While leading his team to win the championship, he also won the largest individual award in the American College Student League and beat the top three champions.

   What a thing that enhances the self-confidence of the Chinese nation.

   And by sweeping away the stereotypes of American universities towards Chinese students, it has virtually improved the image of the country.

   A top student with a full scholarship in economics, why can't he win the NCAA Final Four Most Valuable Player? What you Americans cannot do, we Chinese can do!

   In 2008, there was still a market for frustrating foreigners' power and increasing Chinese morale. But ten years later, it seems to have gotten used to it!

   With the consent of the basketball team, Duger took the CCTV shooting team to the Austin Basketball Center on the Westwood campus for an exclusive interview.

   CCTV reporters are very professional. They were before interviewing Dugge. It has completed the interviews with NBA stars Kobe Bryant, Stephen Nash, Yao Xuan, head coach Ben Holland, Russell Westbrook, Luke Barmot and Kevin Love.

   These people were full of praise for Doug in the interview, and most of them mentioned a brand-new term "Snoopy Whirlwind" invented by ESPN.

"So, do you think the'Snoopy whirlwind' that you have blown up in American college basketball is crazy enough? I walked all the way from the arena today and wore the number 10 jersey the most. You became a veritable one. A star player, and it took you less than 3 months to complete this process. How did you do it?" The well-known CCTV host in a straight suit sat on a high stool in the center of the arena, with a very professional tone. And in very standard Putonghua to ask Douge questions.

Doug smiled and said plainly: "It’s really crazy to the outside world to get the MVP trophy in the semifinals. But in fact, I didn’t pay attention to these things. I just got one game after another. Prepare for the game and finish my work during the game. So'Snoopy Whirlwind' is calm for me because I'm in the center of the eye of the storm."

  Duge's answer was uneventful, infinitely close to the standard answer.

   The CCTV host thought for a while, and then asked an interesting question: "So, have you ever been underestimated during the game? I mean skin color or height."

"This is something that is hard to avoid." Du Ge shrugged his shoulders. He did not deliberately increase the confrontation, but said calmly: "On the basketball court, no one can rely on vile provocative methods or inexplicable methods. Superiority wins. For me, my skin color is my pride, and my height is their shame."

  Duge's answer is very cultivated and powerful.

   This made the host admire the 19-year-old basketball boy with admiration. He is indeed a top student of Anderson Business School.

   Then, the host asked Doug about his views and predictions on the draft.

  Doug deliberately revealed some information in this session: "Actually, the draft is just a cutscene for me. I have gotten first-round draft guarantees from more than one team."

   When the host asked which team it was. Dugge smiled and told him: "This is a secret. But it basically covers lottery teams, playoff teams and powerful teams."

   The visit was in progress, and a large group of people suddenly walked into the stadium. Walking in the forefront was Bill Walton (Jabbar), the second most powerful super center in school history.

   "Hey, Snoopy! I heard that you are here, come here quickly. I have to train your small Bill Walton, otherwise you kid will keep deceiving yourself as a point guard."

  Bill Walton greeted Doug enthusiastically, and then he walked into the picture captured by the CCTV lens.

   CCTV did not stop shooting because of the tall man who broke in suddenly, because the photographer recognized the former NBA superstar.

   "Are you being interviewed?"

   Bill Walton did not dodge after spotting the camera. He is a born star. He hurriedly waved to the camera: "Hey, how are you? This is Bill Walton. I now officially announce that Snoopy will be my student. I will teach him my full set of defensive steps. Wait and see. UU Read www.uukanshu.com, he will become a top center in the NBA!"

   Then, he began to take the initiative to talk with the host in English. He told the host how much he admired Snoopy, and he also told the TV audience in front of the TV that Snoopy would have a bright and splendid future.

  Bill Walton is very good at dealing with the media. He then taught Doug defensive steps under the filming of TV footage.

   The CCTV interview team was surprised by Bill Walton’s cooperation, which added a lot of topicality to their interviews, and I believe it will definitely bring great repercussions after the official broadcast.

   After the filming work was completed, Bill Walton and Doug stayed in the arena to continue training.

  Duge's footsteps are already relatively fast, but because his thighs are not as flexible as his calves, his stride is slightly smaller, but the speed is extremely fast.

   This is also in line with Bill Walton's defensive philosophy: Bill Walton is a traditional center, and at the end of his year, the NBA did not have a three-second zone. They are accustomed to playing in the basket.

  Doug learned a few fast sliding defense skills from Bill Walton.

  In the evening, Bill Walton invited Dugge to dinner together.

  At dinner, Bill Walton asked Doug if he was interested in going to Boston to play. Doug looked a little surprised at Bill Walton, a super center graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles, and your son is still playing for the Lakers. You actually recommended me to kill the rival Boston Celtics?

  Bill Walton smiled: "I just think your tough style fits well with Boston. You know, I used to be a Celtics."

   "Well, in fact, I don't reject any team, but Boston has to be prepared to be high enough." Dugge's answer was dripping.
