Butler finally got an interview opportunity, and the reporter still asked for his evaluation of Zeng Xingyang's performance tonight.
Butler wasn't annoyed at all and said seriously, "Zeng is definitely the MVP, he's the best player currently in the NBA, bar none."
Butler's words were filled with sincerity; he had never admired a player this much before.
In his view, Zeng Xingyang is talented, hardworking, and has a strong desire to win.
Tonight, while trailing by 23 points in the fourth quarter, he almost wanted to give up, but Zeng Xingyang just wouldn't give up, turning the impossible into possible, leading the Nuggets to tie the Rockets' 22-game win record.
Over at the Thunder's interview site, Westbrook was surrounded by reporters.
With a furrowed brow, he frankly stated, "There's nothing much to say, we lost tonight's game. Next time we face them, I'll take back the win."
