last super center

Chapter 48 Incheon Asian Games, preparations begin!
Crazy celebrations, crazy cheers, nothing is more exciting than this moment!
The Kansas players fell into a frenzy in the locker room, champagne was splashed in the sky for free, and every piece of air here smelled sweet.

Crazy until very late, when Su Mu fell asleep, the cheers of the fans were still echoing in his ears.

It was a good night's dream. In the morning, Su Mu woke up in the hotel on time.

"Jingle bell jingle bell."

A series of cell phone ringtones rang in his ears, Su Mu picked up the phone, and a familiar voice rang from the other end.

"Su Mu, congratulations!"

Dayao's thick voice came from the microphone. With joy, Dayao was very satisfied with Shi Yu's achievements in the NCAA competition.

That was the hope of China that he personally sent over. Su Mu also lived up to Dayao's expectations and successfully made a name for himself on the American basketball court.

"Interested, join the national team?"

In my impression, Dayao was elected to Nasha in June 2019. After he chose to retire, he did not quit his favorite basketball field.

Dayao first bought his home team, the Shanghai Sharks, and became the owner of the team. Later, Yao Ming became the leader. He also sold the Shanghai team and continued to contribute his own strength to Chinese basketball!
It can be said that Dayao is a pure Chinese who loves basketball and is willing to contribute his meager strength to the cause of Chinese basketball.

Otherwise, with his NBA income and endorsement contract, he would have been able to enjoy the rest of his life with peace of mind, why bother to go through this muddy water again and make himself a show?

Deep down, Yao Ming still hopes that the Chinese men's basketball team will become stronger and better!
Before that, Dayao never bothered Su Mu, the purpose was to let him concentrate on preparing for the competition and strive to get a good ranking.

After the championship was settled, Dayao called, on the one hand to congratulate Su Mu, and on the other hand, to ask Su Mu if he would like to join the national team and become a part of it.

"Of course! Playing for the country has always been my dream!"

Su Mu, who debuted in the national youth team, naturally has the wish to play for the country.

As a basketball lover, Su Mu's resistance to Chinese basketball is not as strong as football.

From the 2008 Olympic Games held in front of his home, Su Mu saw the arrogance of the older generation of Chinese men's basketball players. They tried their best on the court and gave their all for the only remaining glory. Even dragging the risk of professional reimbursement, he joined this battle without hesitation!
The fearlessness of the American men's basketball team, the fierce fighting of the Spanish men's basketball team, and the determination to defeat the German men's basketball team and reach the final eight all show the tenacity of the Chinese men's basketball team on the road to growth.

It's just that when the older generation of players retired and the young players failed to carry the banner, this led to the decline of the Chinese men's basketball team.

Among them, the failure of the Incheon Asian Games is just one of the stages of the Chinese men's basketball team from glory to decline!
In the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games, the Chinese men's basketball team at home, led by veterans such as Wang Zhizhi and Liu Wei, advanced all the way to the final.

In the decisive battle with the South Korean team, the Chinese men's basketball team went from being behind to taking the lead until they only led by 1 points in the last minute. .

In the Incheon Asian Games four years later, the Chinese men's basketball team sent a young team to play. The 12 players were Ding Yanyuhang, Gu Quan, Guo Ailun, Xirelijiang, Liu Xiaoyu, Sun Tonglin, Wang Zhelin, Zhao Tailong, Li Xiaoxu, Zhai Xiaochuan, Zhou Peng and Zhou Peng. Qi.

Among them, the biggest players are Zhou Peng and Liu Xiaoyu, who were born in 1989. The rest are all born in the 90s. The youngest Zhou Qi is only 18 years old this year.

With such a young team playing in Incheon, it is not difficult to see that the coach Gong Luming intends to train new players and prepare for the next Rio Olympics.

At that time, Chinese fans were very critical of this lineup configuration. It is not difficult for these young players to see from the World Preliminaries that it is difficult for them to provoke the mainstay and become the real main force of the stadium.

Sure enough, what happened next made the fans who really love Chinese basketball feel down to the bottom!

The worst in history!
From 1974 to 2010, China won nine championships and one runner-up, which was almost a monopoly. In 2014, the Chinese men's basketball team was only nailed to the Asian Games as No.5. A pillar of shame for historical achievements!
Among them, what impressed Shi Yu the most was losing to an absolutely unbeatable opponent in a crucial match: Little Days!
Although the record of previous battles is fully dominant, this young Chinese men's basketball team still makes people sweat.

In the game, the Chinese team led by as much as 15 points at most, but then Gong Luming made "four ups and four downs" adjustments. The players made more mistakes and finally reversed and lost 72 to 79, which was the first time in the history of the Asian Games. After losing to the Xiaotian team, Gong Luming bluntly said that he underestimated the enemy.

After the overwhelming abuse, Gong Luming undertook tremendous pressure. After losing to the Xiaoritian team, there was only one way for the Chinese men's basketball team to advance to the semi-finals, and that was to defeat the powerful Iran team.But the miracle did not happen in the end. The young boys did not take advantage of this West Asian team, and finally lost 67 to 75. For the first time in the history of the Asian Games, they missed the semi-finals.The subsequent 5-8 place competition has also become a battle of honor. The men's basketball team won consecutive victories against the Philippines and Qatar to rank fifth, creating the worst record in the previous Asian Games.

In a competition with brain congestion, Su Mu can't wait to play on the field by himself, and he will be ashamed!
Now, the opportunity is in front of him. Su Mu really can't figure out why Dayao has any reason to call him back to the national team when he misses the World Championship.

Incheon Asian Games is definitely the purpose of Dayao's trip!

"When are you going home?"

After receiving Su Mu's affirmative answer, Dayao also asked kindly.

"Go home? Of course, the sooner the better!"

Su Mu couldn't wait to return to the place he was familiar with. The relationship between parents and relatives, blood thicker than water, urged Su Mu to return as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Su Mu participated in the parade ceremony after winning the championship. After finishing his studies, he asked the head coach for instructions, bought a plane ticket, and embarked on the journey home.

The time came to May 2014, and the CBA playoffs were all over.

BJ defeated XJ 98-88 and won the final championship trophy with a total score of 4-2.

The start time of the Incheon Asian Games is at the end of September and the beginning of October. Even if Su Mu is selected by an NBA team this year, it will not delay the start of the regular season.

As for the preseason games, Su Mu also had time to participate. After all, the actual start time of the games would not be until mid-October. At that time, the Incheon Asian Games would have ended long ago, and Su Mu would still be able to get a precious rest time.

"Sir, the plane is about to arrive at its destination, please take your belongings with you."

A tall, sexy stewardess wearing a black silk skirt with a round buttocks like a peach was talking kindly to a handsome sleeping man.

Such a gentle way of getting up, Su Mu called out love!

After waking up, Su Mu turned to look at the window.

The majestic land where talents are born, returned to this familiar place again, and Su Mu was mixed with surprise and longing.

It has been a year and I haven't seen my parents.

Due to the training camp, Su Mu couldn't return to his hometown immediately. He had to go to the training ground first, and then he could get his own time after completing a series of running-in there.

As soon as I got off the plane, the same smell hit my face, um, it was a serious smog smell, this smell, I would cough if I didn't smell it for a day.

"Su Mu, Su Mu! Look here, here I am!"

When the plane arrived at the gate, a big, stupid man with a height of 217 cm kept calling Su Mu's name.

"You fucking, can't you keep your voice down?"

Anyway, I'm a celebrity, and I came back from the United States with honor. Do you really think I don't have many fans in China?

Yes, the pick-up man Su Mu is very familiar with, it is the Polish center who fought with him in the national youth team: Zhou Qitowski!
This kid, I haven't seen him for a year, why doesn't he seem to have made any progress?
Zhou Qi, who has just turned 18, is about the same size as Su Mu, but in terms of appearance, Su Mu is far stronger than the thin Zhou Qi.

A year of crazy training in the United States has already transformed Su Mu, and now, he can hold Zhou Qi with one hand!
"Hey guy, how did you become so strong?"

Zhou Qi pinched Su Mu's muscles and said exaggeratedly.

"Nonsense, I don't eat egg-filled pancakes, you brat, didn't you train well in China?"

How did you say it?

One year later, we will meet at the top, I am at the top, how about you?
"Isn't this still growing the body? Excessive training is not conducive to the development of bones."

Zhou Qi chuckled, he could feel the huge gap from his body shape, Zhou Qi blushed a little, he couldn't beat Su Mu before, now it's all right, he won the NCAA championship, and he won it as an absolute core, not that A cat and a dog, a champion sitting on the bench, the gold content in it is self-evident!

Looking at myself again, I didn't understand on the stage of CBA, how can I realize my promise at the beginning, and stand on the stage of NBA with Su Mu? !
"Warning you, from now on, give me a good training, otherwise."

Hate that iron is not steel!
No wonder the Chinese men's basketball team is not as good as it is year after year. With your training attitude, you are really underwhelmed!

Thinking of the list for this year's Asian Games in Incheon, Su Mu decided to let these guys understand what the real difference in strength is during the training camp!

"OK! I will definitely work harder! Let's go, take you to our training place."

About an hour and a half later, Su Mu and Zhou Qi came to the training venue prepared by the Chinese men's basketball team for the 2014 Renchun Asian Games.

In order to let Chinese fans see the hope of the men's basketball team again, the association has made full preparations early on. Starting from the national team training last year, it has started to prepare for this Asian Games.

This year, when the CBA league ended, starting from March 3, the national team's training plan began!

The first phase, from March 3 to May 30.The whole team will conduct basic physical training and complete ideological and psychological strengthening.Learn to adapt to home factors and resolve some injuries and other issues before the start of the second stage.

The second stage, from May 5th to August 20th, is the combination stage of competition and training.In principle, I will not go abroad for training, mainly to adapt to the relationship at home.

It is said that there will be about ten matches scheduled during this period, and teams of different levels will be invited to compete with the Chinese team. This is also what the media is most concerned about.

Su Mu didn't think it mattered, the invited team might not be able to practice with you for real, at most it was just a show and a formality.

The Chinese men's basketball team just wants to express their determination in this way, and I'm afraid it's unknown how much effect it can really have.

In the training camp, Su Mu saw many familiar figures.

Zhou Peng, Guo Ailun, four-character foreign aid, Xirelijiang, Zhai Xiaochuan
Many future celebrities in the Chinese basketball field will gather in this training camp. They will all fight for the honor of China. The upcoming Olympic Games is undoubtedly the best opportunity to win honor.

"China's Youngest Class! "

Earlier at the beginning of the year, some media put up such slogans.

With the gradual retirement of the older generation of players and the emergence of young players, the news media and Chinese fans have given them a lot of tolerance.

The oldest Zhou Peng and Liu Xiaoyu are only 25 years old, and the youngest Zhou Qi and Su Mu are only 18 years old. They are all recruits. How can they compare with the 2008 men's basketball lineup?

The No. 2002 pick in [-], the core of the Rockets Yao Ming.

The No. 2007 show in 6, Yi Jianlian with explosive physical fitness and unlimited prospects!

Become famous at a young age, the future Sun Yue of the Chinese basketball guard line!

Although he is the oldest, he is still full of enthusiasm and Wang Zhizhi with comprehensive insider skills!
There are also Wang Shipeng with superb three-point shooting skills, Zhu Fangyu with full boxing skills, Chen Jianghua with fast breakthroughs, and Du Feng who is capable of both inside and outside.
Throughout history, even Su Mu has to admit that the Chinese men's basketball team is the strongest!
Yao Ming stabilized the morale of the army like a pinning needle. When he saw these people working hard for the honor of China, Su Mu finally understood why Yao Ming insisted on participating in this year's Chinese Olympics despite the fate of his life being reimbursed.

This is not only a kind of spirit, but also a kind of inheritance, and a symbol of national cohesion!
So, what is the reason? Chinese basketball has been going downhill since 2008, and there are no stars like Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming entering the NBA.

Su Mu in his previous life thought a lot about it. When the banner of the men's basketball team collapsed, when the Great Wall no longer stands, no one will be able to carry the banner, and no one will be qualified to carry the banner!

Ah Lian has worked hard and dedicated his youth to the national team, but when the older generation of players gradually recede and there is no helper around him, the indomitable spirit of the men's basketball team seems to gradually dissipate with their departure .

The key, what is it?
leader!

Yes!

Ah Lian can become a crucial cornerstone of the Chinese men's basketball team, but he cannot become a leader. He cannot lead the team to go further like Yao Ming. He is not as strong as Yao Ming. He does his best, It can't make the men's basketball team reproduce its glory.

When the young man who is protected by many big brothers will one day need him to grow into the pillar of the team, Su Mu is very grateful, because Ah Lian has not been defeated by many difficulties. Never before, do your best on the court to the last drop of sweat!
It was a history that was hard to forget, and Su Mu never forgot.

So when Su Mu was full of passion and patriotism, he agreed to Dayao's request to join the national team without hesitation.

But when he looked back again, he realized how heavy the act of joining the national team was.

What a terrible thing it would be to bear the wishes of more than one billion people.

When there is no one around you who can protect you anymore, when you have to stand up and be the bearer of the storm, if you are not mentally strong enough, it will only take a few minutes to drive you crazy.

Why did Sun Dasheng sink?
Why is Guo Ailun getting worse?
After being ridiculed again and again, Zhou Qi has completely lost the appearance of the big devil who once ruled the arena!
That indomitable heart is a strong guarantee to support you to move forward!

Fortunately, the pressure has come to Su Mu.

No matter what, he didn't want to make himself too tired to live. To live a new life, he should be at ease instead of adding troubles.

"but"

"Of course I will do what I promised you!"

"Start from here, let me take them on a training road of no return!"

A bloody storm in the training camp has sounded the alarm!
