"Kevin, be happy and leave a good impression on those people. It will help you in the draft."

Springman saw that Durant's expression was still very bad, so he gave a reminder.

Durant didn't respond.

Springman shook his head helplessly after seeing it. It looked like today's meeting would not go well.

The meeting was held in a large conference room. When they entered, they saw a large area of ​​darkness filled with long guns and cannons.

The reporters and media that came were not only from the NCAA, but big media like TNT and ESPN also sent reporters.

Those who can be invited to the meeting are all teams that have performed well in their respective leagues in the past period, and there will naturally be outstanding players among them.

Or you can understand that this is an opportunity for the outside world to understand this year's quality rookies.

After they arrived, they did not go on stage immediately. Instead, they found the front row waiting area where Barnes was and sat down.

Now on the stage being interviewed is the University of Florida.

Head coach Billy Donovan, the team's three core players Joakim Noah, Al Horford and Corey Brewer.

Just these few people sitting on the stage felt a sense of pressure.

As the defending champions, they have been crushing the competition so far this season.

Although the outside world has praised Oden's team and Ohio State University to the sky, their number one position in the power rankings is as stable as rock.

This is the biggest boss of the NCAA this year.

Lin Ying looked at the people on the stage thoughtfully.

Donovan's resume in the NBA is not successful, but he is also a famous coach in the NCAA.

Especially after leading the University of Florida to win the championship last year, he officially entered the top ranks of the NCAA.

Just like the version of the triangle offense, the level a coach can perform under different circumstances will vary greatly.

Then there are these three core, all lottery-talented senior players.

Coupled with their tactical execution and tacit understanding, in a sense, they are an upgraded version of the University of Kansas.

Compared to Ohio State, which relies purely on talent, this is the team that is most terrifying to opponents.

Judging from the experience that the University of Texas just played against Kansas, if they faced this University of Florida team.

Unless the University of Florida plays abnormally, they have no chance of winning.

This is not self-destruction of prestige, but this is the reality.

At this moment, the interview on stage had ended.

Barnes asked Durant and Lin Ying to get up, and then walked to the stage.

The two groups of people met each other on the steps, and the four people on the Florida side all looked at Durant in unison.

Although judging from the strength of the two teams, there is not much chance of a meeting, but as a rookie who is predicted to be selected in the top two picks, even they will take a second look at Durant.

But what they saw was a cold face.

And, there was another cold face next to him.

Several people looked at each other.

What they were thinking at this time was: Can a team with this atmosphere beat Kansas?

There are many dishes in Kansas this year...

Barnes took Lin Ying and Durant to sit down, and after a brief greeting, the reporters below began to ask questions.

Then soon, the reporters below were also confused.

Because they found that what they were facing was exactly two stinky faces!

Especially Durant, who is the center of attention, can clearly feel that the response is a coping style, which makes people feel completely offended.

Sure enough, a "cold" person!

At this time, Barnes turned his head and looked at Durant.

Durant was in a bad mood in the car. He didn't know why, so he didn't ask much. He thought it would be fine if he went to the meeting.

This is also an opportunity for Durant to break the "cold" label given to him by the media before.

Who would have thought that it would end up like this? This is not a good thing for Durant.

"Kevin, why do you look unhappy?"

Finally, a reporter below couldn't help but ask a question.

When they interviewed Auden before, he was humorous and approachable.

Durant and Oden are equally famous, but their performance in front of the media is also very different.

At this time, Barnes took the initiative to hold the microphone in front of him, and then answered the question for Durant.

"Kevin didn't get much sleep after training until around 2 o'clock in the night yesterday. His mental state is not very good today."

Barnes is trying to save Durant's image.

The reporter who asked the question looked suddenly enlightened after hearing this.

It’s true that people’s tempers get worse when they don’t get enough sleep.

Moreover, this wave killed two birds with one stone, giving a very reasonable explanation, and by the way, it also established Durant's image of training hard.

Full marks for this move by Barnes, but what he didn’t expect was that Durant didn’t appreciate it!

After Barnes answered and put the microphone back, he then held the microphone in front of him.

"What the coach said is only one aspect. What makes me even more confused is why the whole team can't be invited to this meeting?"

All the reporters were stunned when Durant said this.

No one has ever asked that before!

"We won the game together, but why are there only two of us here?"

Durant then asked again, and it was obvious that he was not joking.

At this time, Barnes reached out and rubbed his forehead vigorously.

He now knew why Durant was upset from the moment he got in the car.

This is unreasonable!

Springman has already explained the reason to Durant before, and who would stay angry about this kind of thing?

He wanted to be angry and laugh at the same time.

At the same time, the reporter below looked at Durant with a "freak" look.

Perhaps only Lin Ying can understand.

Back then, a group of people from the high school team went to a dinner party, and because Durant was not there, everyone could wait together.

"Because you are the most dazzling person and the most talented one."

The reporter who asked the question replied.

"Nonsense!"

The reporter's words made Durant's tone suddenly become excited.

"Without other people's pick-and-roll and movement, I wouldn't be able to get a good shooting space. Likewise, without other people's hard defense, I wouldn't be able to have that much energy to attack!

Those are things that data cannot reflect. I look dazzling just because I am the one assigned by the coach to take action.

We are a team and we were invited because of everyone’s hard work, but no one else can come here!”

After Durant finished speaking, the reporters in the audience were stunned.

At this time, Barnes also put away the feeling of being angry and laughing, and looked at Durant with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Chapter completed!
