Chapter 3 A New Beginning

David Stern stood on the podium in the center of the venue with a smile in the enthusiastic cheers of all the fans.

"Thank you to New Orleans for thanking the people here for participating in the game and thanking all the media. This is a successful All-Star Game. Without you, there would be no such success. Finally, I would like to thank the all-Star players and coaches who have dedicated a wonderful game to everyone. Next, I would like to announce N The most valuable player in the BA 2007-2008 New Orleans All-Star Game is..." As in previous times, Stern dragged his voice.

The New Orleans Arena is ringing with a neat and uniform "LIN! MVP!" David Stern opened his lips with a smile, "First-year rookie Lin from Los Angeles!"

With David Stern's words falling and cheering again, there is no doubt that this different rookie has perfectly conquered the people of the New Orleans Arena in just a few days.

Lin Fei stood up and waved to the fans in the audience and slowly walked to the podium. In this game, Lin Fei slapped Kupcek in the face with his excellent performance that Kupcek said goodbye to Orshu and left the box before the end of the game.

34 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block, 1 steal, no foul, no mistakes. This is the data sent by Lin Fei in this game. He left people a deep memory of the difficult 3+1; the wonderful one-on-three pull-rod layup; the long-distance windmill dunk after the block is more his unique art. Running position.

David Stern looked at Lin Fei on the podium and said with a smile, "I'm giving you the award again!"

"Yes! I think there will be more times in the future!" Lin Fei, who was in a good mood, stretched out his hand and held it together with David Stern.

"I think you're right. There will be more opportunities in the future. I'm optimistic about you. Keep up the good work!" After saying that, David Stern took over the All-Star Game Most Valuable Player trophy and handed it to Lin Fei under the attention of the public.

This trophy is the third trophy that Lin Fei won during the New Orleans All-Star Game weekend. In the first trophy, he staged a miraculous kill, and the second trophy was his last shot to set a new record. Although this third one was not won by a kill that made adrenaline hormone soar in the last second, It is the heaviest one in Lin Fei's heart, because this trophy is the product of the two teams, the Lakers-Cultipers. He will always remember this trophy and this night!

Lin Fei smiled under the spotlight, and Scarlett Johansson in the audience quietly puffed her palms with a faint smile on her delicate cheeks. At this moment, she felt Lin Fei's growth - the growth of qualitative change!

When Lin Fei walked off the podium, Reggie Miller's sister stood in front of Lin Fei, "Lin, congratulations on winning the most valuable player!"

Lin Fei looked at Cheryl Miller in front of him with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, "Thank you, but if it's the regular season, I think I will like it more!"

"Wow, your goal is the most valuable player in the regular season? When are you going to complete this goal?

"I've been working hard. As for the result, there is no specific time. Of course, the sooner the better, but I know it's not as easy as throwing three points!"

Cheryl looked at Lin Fei and smiled, "Lin, can you talk about your feelings? Including halftime break..."

"That transaction?" Lin Fei directly interrupted Cheryl and said, "No one wants to be traded, especially at this time. You know, I was still a Lakers player in the first half, but I became the Clippers in the second half, but in the end, I was still a Los Angeles player!" This is what NBA Bryant told me that I am also mentally prepared. No one knows where tomorrow will be. Maybe tonight I will be notified to go to New York in Los Angeles tomorrow. The only thing I can do is to play every game well and be worthy of every cent paid by my boss to the fans who support me! As for the deal, I don't want to say anything more. I just want to say that the Clippers fans, I'm here!"

After a few simple questions, Lin Fei left the player channel and walked into the locker room.

Time: February 19, 2008, Venue: Staples Arena, Los Angeles, Event: New Players Media Meeting.

Under the press conference, there were media reporters in Jiji, "Please be quiet!" The press conference was quiet immediately after the press officer spoke out.

"Thank you for coming to this meeting!" Nell Orshu, the general manager of the Clippers, said with a smile, "This is to welcome the meeting of the new players. First, let's welcome Lin Fei and Wilson Chandler. Jerome James is absent from this meeting due to injury!" With that, Lin Fei and Chandler came in from the door and sat directly on the rostrum.

Then Donald Sterling, the owner of the Clippers, stood up and personally handed over the No. 8 Clippers' home jersey to Lin Fei. "I'm glad that he can join the Clippers. Lin is a promising and talented player. Lin's arrival will definitely help us win!" The most stingy boss in the NBA league looked at the reporter under the stage and paused. He enjoyed the feeling of the flash.

"Why is it still No. 8?" A white reporter stood up and asked.

Lin Fei replied with a smile, "In the past, I was forced to wear it. Now I want to say that although I am still in Los Angeles, although I am still in this stadium, Bryant is not by my side. This number is that his existence will always urge me to work hard. I think I will look at it every time I don't work hard enough. This jersey on my body, and then I will think of Bryant's words, 'Rookie, look at your tail, and I will easily blow you up!' So I continued to choose No. 8!"

"There will be a Los Angeles derby in a week. Will you have a big outbreak?"

Lin Fei smiled and said, "Explosion? I don't know, but I will always try. I think I will do my best to show it in that game. Of course, I want to win!"

"Did Coach Dunleavy has designed the core tactics for you? Are you sure that you can quickly integrate into the team? Will you get along well with Brandon? This problem directly put Lin Fei on the stove.

Lin Fei shrugged his shoulders and looked at the reporter who asked the question, "I believe I can quickly integrate into the team and get along well with Brandon. He is a senior. I believe that with his help, I will integrate into the team more quickly. As for tactics? I think this is Mike's problem, not mine.

Mike Dunleavy held the microphone in front of him with a smile on his face. He said, "I don't think it's a problem for Lin to integrate into us, and as for the design of tactics, I think as long as he is not a fool, he will specially design tactics for Lin!"

"Coach Dunleavy, how will you deal with the backcourt problems and the relationship between Brandon and Lin?" Another reporter picked out a sharp topic.

"Sam is an old player. He knows how to help young players. There is no problem for me to communicate with Lin about this, and so is Mobry, so I believe that our backfield will be stronger with Lin's joining. As for Brandon, they will get along well with each other, both inside and outside as Lin said. They will bring continuous victories to the Clippers!"

"Everyone knows that Lin will have the right to choose players in this off-season, so has he reached a contract renewal agreement with Lin after spending a huge cost? Is it worth the right to choose for the next two years for Lin? Obviously, this problem is thrown to Orshu.

Nell. Orshu cleared his throat and said, "Of course, we have reached a renewal agreement with Lin. As for the specific contract, it has not been determined yet, but it is certain that Lin will stay in the Clippers for a long time. We have reached a consensus on this! As for the draft right? What would you do if you were the general manager? I think you may not dare now, but in a few years you will definitely regret not choosing to send a draft trade to get Lin, so I think this deal is beneficial to the Clippers! Similarly, Wilson Chandler is also an excellent rookie. I believe they will become the future of the Clippers! So I think this deal is worth it!"

Olshuton looked at the reporters and continued: "We tend to get the best players, and Lin is the best player. He is less than 20 years old, but he has already left his name in the history of the NBA. He has saved the team many times at the last minute and was selected as an All-Star. On the All-Star stage, he has become the most shining of all the stars in New Orleans. Do you still doubt that he is not as good as the year after tomorrow? Put on the guy we picked?" In the end, Orshu looked quite proud. In his opinion, the Clippers completed a great robbery!

An hour later, the new aid meeting held by the Clippers was over, and Lin Fei walked out of Staples and slowly walked on the Avenue of Los Angeles.

Shortly after the Clippers held a new aid meeting, a blockbuster deal broke out in the league. The Sacramento Kingdom, with a great desire to rebuild, finally took action. At the deadline of the deal, the Kings finally reached a one-for-four deal with the Atlanta Eagles, and the Kings' guard Mike Bibby was sent. Atlanta got guard Anthony. Johnson, Tyran. Lu and center Lorenzen. Wright and Swinger Sheldan. Williams, this deal will basically become the last blockbuster deal in this blockbuster medium-term trading market!

At 8 p.m. on February 20, Staples' voices were full. Sterling's face in the box was full of smiles when he saw this scene. Since he got Lin Fei, the team's tickets immediately surged and the upcoming related Lin Fei products were booked, which made him very happy. He saw the white flowers. The dollar is wasuring to him!

Lin Fei in the center of the venue is shooting warm-up. Today, it will be his debut on behalf of the Clippers. He is looking forward to giving a wonderful game to the fans! The opponent of the Clippers is the Dallas Mavericks, who were made a scene at home by Lin Fei!

Because he only practiced with the team once, Lin Fei sat on the bench and waited to play after the game began.
