Chapter 234 242: Los Angeles, the target of public criticism

The clouds in Memphis today are very low, and it is obvious that it is going to rain in the dark, but the rain has not fallen.The sky is getting darker and the pedestrians are walking more and more anxiously, but the rain never falls.The weather gives people only one feeling - depressing!

Qin Tao stood at the entrance of the college basketball hall they rented, looked at the sky, and said to Brown Xiao and Du Peng standing beside him: "Today's weather is really depressing!"

"Depressed! I feel that such a sky is like our foreground. There is a layer of window paper that has not been pierced." Brown-Shaw said.

Du Peng looked at the sky, he felt a tightness in his chest, "It really doesn't feel good to be the target of public criticism!"

"Alas!" Qin Tao sighed heavily, he always said "don't care too much about other people's opinions", but how can a person live in this world not care about other people's opinions?He really wanted to help the players block all the pressure from the outside world, but in this society where the media and news are pervasive, how could his flesh and blood be able to block the pervasive information?Tonight they will challenge the Grizzlies in an away game. Yesterday they were adjusting at the hotel in Memphis. Groups of media gathered in front of the hotel lobby to interview Lakers players or coaches.Qin Tao wanted to refuse all interviews but was still powerless. He never imagined that the media would be so united this time.The Lakers did nothing wrong, but these reporters used their pens to touch the Lakers very darkly.

Yesterday, all media reports seemed to be swayed by an invisible hand. After the media in New York took the lead, the media in many places began to criticize the Lakers.There are no perfect people or perfect teams in this world, so how can the Lakers not leave anything behind?They have now won three consecutive victories, but many reporters said that Kobe was alone and Leo Bailey had a huge problem, but no one paid attention to the essence of the problem.

"He is a rapist." Some fans said Kobe.

"Leo Bailey might be Qin Tao's illegitimate son. I will also play point guard in the future, and I will go to the Lakers to play point guard." Some people said so.

"How can Chris Webber stand that arrogant and paranoid guy?"

"How can Derek Fisher endure being on the bench?"

The weather vane of public opinion quickly pointed to the Lakers overnight. As for why, it is very simple.Since the start of this season, Kobe's aggressiveness has never been stronger. This season, the Lakers played six games. Kobe scored 50+ in two games and even scored 63 points in his career. Highest score record.In the previous two games, the Lakers first got rid of the "Wolf King" Garnett, and then picked out the "answer" Allen Iverson.With these two items alone, fans of "Wolf King" and "Answer" stood on the opposite side of the Lakers.

Then it was because of Leo Bailey who soared into the sky because of the Lakers. He was unknown before, just an ordinary college student, and suddenly flew to the height of the Lakers' main point guard.There are so many young people in the United States who love basketball and love basketball. They all feel that their strength is better than that of Leo Bailey. With envy and hatred, Leo Bailey has naturally become the target of these people.

These reasons and Qin Tao's impression in the media's mind are really not very good. So far, he has not accepted an exclusive interview with anyone except for a brief interview with Joey, even if they pay him.Moreover, he often canceled the team's regular press conferences. Even if he participated in the press conference, he was never on time, either late or left early.The journalist brothers hated him already to the point where it couldn't be added. If it weren't for his good performance in leading the team, the shouts of "Chinese go away." would definitely resound throughout the United States.

"I want to sue them for defamation." Qin Tao growled, pointing at the group of "outraged" reporters standing outside the barbed wire fence of the college players they rented.He really can't take it anymore, and now the Lakers have been completely affected by the reports of this group of reporters.

"Qin, what they reported is based on facts. It is impossible for us to win the lawsuit." Anger welled up in Brown-Shaw's eyes, but he finally shrugged and said helplessly.

"In the history of the league, has Los Angeles ever been besieged like this?" Qin Tao slammed his fist on the door frame and asked.

Brown-Shaw sighed, and said: "It's really never happened before. It seems that we are going to create a history again. I really don't know what kind of medicine these media have taken. Why did they suddenly get involved with us?"

"Hehe!" Qin Tao smiled self-deprecatingly, "Before creating the most powerful dynasty in the history of the Lakers, we first created a precedent that was criticized by everyone. It's really funny. But whoever wants to fight with us Now, I bet that someone is behind the scenes, and there are only so many media who hate us, so as long as someone pushes us behind the scenes, what's the problem?"

Du Peng could see that Qin Tao's current calmness was just a sign of going crazy, and his heart was about to explode. "Heaven will send a great mission to the people of Sri Lanka, and they must first suffer from their hearts and minds, exhaust their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, and empty their bodies. Brother Tao, maybe this is God's test for you!" Du Peng said with a serious face.

"Okay! I'll go and see Leo. This kid has a dead face since last night." Qin Tao waved his hands and left angrily. What else can he do now that the Lakers are like this?He didn't know why all the media in the United States fell to the opposite of the Lakers overnight. Fortunately, amidst the overwhelming doubts, there were two well-known and large media that stood behind him and supported him.Needless to say, these two media are the Los Angeles Sun, which has been a loyal supporter of the Lakers from the beginning to the end, and the Los Angeles Sports News, which was once the Lakers' rival, left by Barker.

It is obvious that these two media will win and lose with Qin Tao and the Lakers.If Qin Tao finally withstood the pressure and fought back with impeccable performance, then he would definitely become the most famous coach in the United States, and the Lakers would once again become the nightmare of all teams.If Qin Tao can't find his way amidst the doubts, and the Lakers collapse under the pressure created by some people with ulterior motives, then needless to say what will happen to the Los Angeles Sun and the Los Angeles Sports News, their reports will be said to be false. Deceive the reader so that their foundation is destroyed.Forget about the Los Angeles Sun. They have always been loyal supporters of the Lakers. The Los Angeles Sports News and the Los Angeles Sports Daily used to be the Lakers' rivals. If they are on the wrong team this time, it will really be ruined.However, they seem to have strengthened their confidence this time, and they are going to follow the Lakers all the way to the dark.
