Chapter 8: He Became a Heartthrob

"Let him introduce himself." Cajon said as he moved the microphone to Tang Tian.

This was Tang Tian's first appearance in public, and it was also an opportunity for him.

"My name is Tang Tian, you can call me Tang, or Tian, but don't call me Tiantang, that means heaven in Chinese, you know it's not a very good word."

As soon as Tang Tian spoke, the reporters below burst into laughter.

Cajon smiled as well.

He was originally worried that Tang Tian would be nervous and speechless, but he didn't expect this self-introduction to be so humorous, it seemed that his worries were completely unnecessary.

"Some people say you're the team's caddie during the game, is that right?" The reporter asked.

The question was a little sensitive, and the other reporters looked at him in unison.

"It used to be, but Coach Cajon recruited me to the team two months ago and I'm now a full-fledged member of the varsity team." Tang Tian replied in a calm tone, he had faced too many such scenes in his previous life, and he was quite comfortable dealing with them.

"But we didn't see you on the school's website." The journalist reminded.

The school's website only has players on scholarship, which is a common thing, and the reporter obviously has something to say.

Cajon was about to take the microphone to block reporters' questions.

"I'm the team's secret weapon, and if I had it, I wouldn't have won tonight." Tang Tian replied with a smile.

The reporters in the audience burst into laughter again.

That's a funny answer.

Cajon couldn't help but turn his head and look at Tang Tian more, how could he feel that this young man, who was only 18 years old, behaved as calmly as him at the press conference?

"Just kidding, because I've just joined the team, it's normal for the website to not be updated in time." Tang Tian continued.

These words are neither arrogant nor humble, and the reporter who said it is speechless.

"Coach, what is the key to the team's win tonight?" After questioning Tang Tian, the second reporter who was asked to ask a question turned the subject to Cajon.

"Defensively, the opponent scored 39 points in the first half, but only 22 points in the entire second half, Don brought energy to us on the defensive end and we played as a team." Cajon had expected the reporter to ask this, and the answer was very smooth.

After he finished saying this, the reporter aimed his long gun and short cannon at Tang Tian and slapped wildly.

Cajun singled out Tang Tian's name, indicating that he was quite satisfied with his performance!

The reporter asked a few more questions one after another.

When Cajon was done, they turned their attention to Walker again.

"26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, what made you play so well tonight?"

'I know the team needs me to score, I need to play on the offensive end, and I've been doing that, and I've always wanted to lead the team to win, whether it's tonight, or tomorrow night, or any other night, I'm the same. Walker replied very seriously, and that's his attitude towards the game.

'You played just as well in the first few games, but tonight the team won. The reporter took over.

"yes, like the coach said, we did a good job defensively tonight, Don gave us energy on the defensive end and he inspired us and yes, he was the key to the team's win tonight." Walker said with a smile.

Walker also mentioned Tang Tian!

And to say that he is the key to the team's victory!

There was another flash of magnesium lights below.

It is conceivable that in the major newspapers after the game, the name Tang Tian will appear in the most conspicuous position.

After the press conference, Tang Tian and Walker went to the locker room to take a shower.

The teammates hadn't left yet, and when they saw them coming back, they shouted and screamed, and the extroverted Napier rushed over and jumped on Tang Tian to ask for a princess hug.

The dressing room was full of laughter, a far cry from the cloudy scene in the training hall before.

In basketball, winning is always the most effective way to solve problems.

Coming out of the locker room, Tang Tian did not go back to the dormitory immediately, but went to the stadium and ran around more than a dozen laps.

In the past two months, in addition to training with the team, he has been training his fitness in his own way.

Although he now has systematic basketball skills, he can't use the full strength of his skills without physical fitness.

Although there is a game today, there is still a need for proper training.

When he was done, he wiped his sweat and walked back to his dormitory through the already silent campus.

However, as soon as he entered the dormitory, he attracted a piercing scream from his roommates.

"Don, you're a member of the varsity team? Why didn't you tell me sooner! ”

"Don, you're so handsome at Butler, how the hell did you do that?"

"Tang, you came back so late, did you go on a date with a woman?"

……

"Shhh Tang Tian made a silent motion.

Hearing what he said, the roommate turned around and closed the door, and continued to ask in a low voice.

Tang Tian only replied at this time.

"I couldn't even play before, wouldn't it be a shame if you knew that I was on the school team?"

"It's like I wasn't handsome when I didn't guard against Butler."

"If dating doesn't exist, I won't go on a date in this life, and I'm interested in opening a room directly."

……

“……”

Tang Tian's answer made his roommates embarrassed for a while, and they suddenly found that Tang Tian was much more humorous today than before.

"Okay, let's play with you, Butler doesn't feel good tonight, I can't be too proud, so I went to the playground and ran a dozen laps to recognize myself, and I saw that I was still sweating, and I had to take another shower."

Tang Tian finished with a smile, and then went directly into the bathroom to take a bath.

"Cut~"

His words immediately drew a disdainful voice from his roommate.

"Wow, there's a woman who adds me ins! I'm finally going to end my single life! While he was taking a shower, Tang Tian heard the shouting of his roommates outside.

He was speechless for a while, the quality of Americans is really low, and they like to shout and shout in the middle of the night, and they don't listen to their calls.

"Well, he asked me for Tang's contact information......"

"Haha~"

"Shhhh

The only one of the roommates who had a girlfriend spoke, and the dormitory was suddenly a lot quieter.

"!"

After waiting for more than ten minutes, he came back from the balcony with a curse.

"What's wrong?"

"My girlfriend asked me for Don's contact information!"

"Haha!" There was a burst of pig-killing laughter.

……

Tang Tian couldn't help but laugh out loud in the bathroom.

I have been a coach all my life in my previous life, and I have never experienced how a player lives, but when I arrived on campus, I realized that being a basketball player is so interesting, especially the basketball atmosphere of the NCAA, which is really a very good experience.
