The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master.

Chapter 192 Lao Li’s big chessboard

lose?

This is probably something the members of the red team have never thought about.

This is the main lineup of the Magic City Sharks, and they plan to use it to win the CBA championship this year!

And what about the other side? He Ning will not talk about it. Although he performed exceptionally today, shooting 4 of 4 from the field, he is still just a small player who is still in the youth training and is not even qualified to play.

Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng, and Zhu Fangyu are indeed rising stars in the country, and they are also highly valued by the National Youth League. They are the main members of the U19 World Championships that have been pre-determined, but that is also a U19... Youth Championship!

In the CBA arena, the strength of these three people may not be inferior to the main players of the Sharks, but their experience is a few blocks behind. Even in Guangdong Hongyuan and Yanjing Aoshen, the three of them are only in the rotation lineup. I haven't gotten a chance to start yet.

Just because there was Lin Dong, a 17-year-old high school student, with this motley crew, they actually defeated the entire Sharks lineup that wanted to win the championship this year!

Damn this... can you believe it? !

When Liu Wei and others saw the time end, they were all a little confused, while Zhu Fangyu and the other two were overjoyed.

Damn it, everyone was taught a lesson by these people in the CBA arena. It feels so good to fight back now!

"Old Lin, why don't you go directly to Hongyuan!" Zhu Fangyu laughed and said, "Our current salary is not bad. If you go, you can win Hongyuan's first championship this year!"

Lin Dong just smiled.

First crown? Thinking too much.

Not to mention that I had no intention of coming to the CBA. The road ahead had already been laid out under Lao Li's arrangements, and that couldn't be changed easily.

What's more, even if they really go to Guangdong Hongyuan, they may not be able to lead the team to beat the Sharks or Bayi on the court.

The real game is completely different from an intra-team game without any off-field factors. Even if factors such as referees are not considered, even if there is only a coach of Li Qiuping's level, he can arrange targeted tactics for you on the spot. , if you make some personnel adjustments, you won't be able to play so smoothly.

"Have you found our Sharks by poaching?" Yao Ming laughed and hooked Lin Dong's shoulder: "Look, Lin Dong is wearing the uniform of our Sharks!"

"Lin Dong." Liu Wei also walked over.

Liu Wei, who had come back to his senses at this time, had the look of disgust towards Lin Dong on his face that had disappeared.

To put it bluntly, he was fighting for Liu Ziqiu before and simply disliked the Basketball Association. But when he discovered that the young man in front of him had unimaginable potential and strength, he understood that the ticket to the Nike Summit should have belonged to Other people's.

Not to mention a Nike ticket, with the level Lin Dong showed just now, even if Lao Li of the Basketball Association arranged for him to play the main role in the national team this year, there would be absolutely no objection from anyone.

What's more, Yao Ming's attitude is already obvious. As a close brother, of course he can't let his brother stand down.

It's better to laugh away grudges as soon as possible, otherwise it won't be so natural.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to Lin Dong: "We don't know each other until we fight. I misunderstood you because I didn't understand the situation before. I apologize to you, brother, and I will punish myself with three bottles in a while!"

"You dare to drink? Aren't you going to start the game tomorrow?"

"Can't Wong Lo Kat?"

"Look at you little guy, how old is Wanglaoji when you order a bottle?" Zhu Fangyu shouted: "You need vitamin E anyway, the big bottle!"

"If you have a good fight, you have to eat something good!" Yao Ming laughed and put his arm around the shoulders of the two of them and said, "I know a private restaurant with good food, so let's go!"

………………

Li Qiuping was very unhappy...very unhappy with Yu Xiaomiao!

I was excitedly preparing for the first game tomorrow, hoping that this year the Sharks could break the myth of Bayi's five consecutive championships since the formation of the CBA.

Frankly speaking, this is quite a chance. After all, Wang Zhizhi has gone to the NBA this year, and the Bayi duo now only has Liu Yudong, who is equivalent to a single-core leader.

Compared with the Sharks, who also led the team with a single core, Li Qiuping finally felt that Yao Ming was better.

The first game of the new year is against Hubei Merya. The team was upgraded last year, but its results this year are very unsatisfactory. It feels like it has to drop back again.

The Sharks have everything they need to beat such an underdog, and they are sure to get off to a good start tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, while he was filling out the starting list, Yu Xiaomiao mysteriously brought him a roll of tape and asked him to read it quickly. As soon as he finished reading it, Li Qiuping felt bad.

With the entire main lineup of the Sharks and Yao Ming on the court, they actually lost to a miscellaneous team led by Lin Dong?

Li Qiuping felt like his whole body was being scratched by a cat.

Heaven, earth!

The cruelest thing in the world is to place the most fragrant piece of fat in front of a person who is about to starve to death, but deliberately prevent you from eating it...

Frankly speaking, if this was a year ago, Li Qiuping might not have such a strong reaction. After all, Yao had just risen at that time, and Li Qiuping focused all his energy on cultivating Yao Ming, even if he saw a treasure like Lin Dong. , but even if he didn't grab it, he still held one in his other hand, so he wouldn't be so disappointed.

But this year is different, Yao Ming is about to leave... He, the teacher who single-handedly brought Yao Ming out, what he wants most in his heart is of course to let Yao Ming show himself on a higher stage, but in the face of the lack of support after Yao Ming leaves, The big shark, he also longed for Lin Dong to save him.

Li Qiuping picked up and put down the phone at hand, put it down and picked it up again. His mind kept thinking about Lao Li's laughter on the phone that day, which finally turned into a sound of sadness.

Forget it...if it's not yours, it's not yours.

But any coach can't help but like such a good prospect.

"Let Lin Dong and the others from the trial training team compete with the team tomorrow." Li Qiuping finally made a call, but it was to Yu Xiaomiao, the team leader. He said in a weak voice: "Feel the stadium and cultivate it if you can." Let’s cultivate it…”

…………

In the CBA arena, generally speaking, the team rarely brings out the youth training players who have just come for trial training. At least they must have been trial training for a long time, and their performance is very good and excellent, and they have achieved mutual goals. Something that will only appear after some consensus and willingness to stay on the team.

Taking you to the stadium, feeling the atmosphere of the stadium, and letting the fans and media pay a certain amount of attention and coverage to you. These are invisible cultivation resources. Of course, they cannot be used on those who will never stay on the team, but for Lin Dong , Li Qiuping was an exception, and He Ning and others, whose actual training results were only mediocre, also benefited from the opportunity and got an opportunity to watch the game.

It's just that such a precious opportunity is actually dispensable to Lin Dong. He does not lack competition experience, nor does he lack confidence and stability when facing the spotlight of the media. These most important experiences for a newcomer are completely useless to him, but there is also an advantage, that is, he has a lot more exposure. Rate.

What's more important is that after that intra-team game, the entire Sharks team's attitude toward Lin Dong was completely different. Yao Ming would often chat with him when he sat down to rest, and would often sit together.

As the current star of the Sharks and the number one player in the CBA, any move of Yao Ming will obviously not be ignored by the media. For fear of missing some news, this youth training player who often sits next to Yao Ming on the court followed him. After Yao Ming appeared in many scenes, he naturally became the focus of the media and the audience.

So with one gossip report after another, Lin Dong's various resumes and information gradually became familiar to domestic audiences.

The number one player in the Japanese High School League, one of the two representatives of the Dragon Kingdom at the Nike Basketball Summit in April, and a trial member of the Sharks...

That's it?

This bit of information obviously cannot satisfy everyone's curiosity. What the hell is the Rigao League? Why did Yao Ming treat him differently? Why can he represent Dragon Kingdom at the Nike Summit?

So one thing led to another, and the more reports there were, the more people became curious, and the paparazzi began to continue to dig deeper.

Then the stories about a courtyard house in Yanjing, the high-level basketball association's unofficial plan to steal Qinghua Liu Ziqiu's tickets to the Nike Summit, and forcing him into a trial training with the Sharks Club all surfaced.

Paparazzi, write as exciting as you want, not to mention that some of the contradictions in it already exist, even if there is just a little bit of information, when no one says hello, these reporters are eager to make up a plot for you. The return of the princess after thousands of twists and turns, let alone a slightly exaggerated 'real report'?

Although the Internet in this era is not yet widespread enough, when paparazzi from all sides smelled the news and gathered it, the spread quickly spread, so that Lin Dong's reputation as a related household was already well known to everyone.

When the media is claiming that it will vigorously rectify the Basketball Association and CBA and improve the domestic basketball environment, the emergence of such news is obviously very detrimental to the Basketball Association.

Li Qiuping could smell some unusual smells.

The news spread so quickly. It was really out of curiosity at first, but then it was someone who was behind it.

However, the party involved, Lao Li, only made a simple statement to the media, saying that Lin Dong obtained the ticket by relying on his own ability, and that all operations were in compliance with the rules and there was nothing shameful about it.

Such a voice was obviously not enough to quell the public's doubts, but Lao Li, who had always been resolute and resolute, was so stunned that he had no backup plan and allowed the news to ferment and intensify.

Frankly speaking, laymen see the excitement, while experts see the door.

Only people like Li Qiuping who are in the game can see this kind of thing clearly.

Lao Li is playing a big game of chess, and it is also a big gamble.

He just took office this year and implemented a new policy to reform basketball, but he still encountered a lot of resistance. This is the reason why his prestige is not enough to suppress everything.

And with the help of Lin Dong's wave of reverse news, all the ghosts and ghosts who were dissatisfied with him were exposed, allowing these people to attack him and let the public question him first.

As long as Lin Dong can really show his absolute dominance at the Nike Summit half a month later, that will be the best proof for Lao Li to fight back all these doubts.

By then, the public's doubts about him will immediately turn into unwavering trust, and those demons and monsters who have attacked him will inevitably disappear in this storm, either losing trust from above, or avoiding the limelight with their tails between their legs. Be a human being.

Then Lao Li can truly seize the power of reforming the Basketball Association and completely establish his unshakable authority in the basketball world of Dragon Country.

Frankly speaking, based on Lin Dong's ability to challenge Yao Ming in a one-on-one match, Li Qiuping feels that Lao Li's gamble is definitely worth it. For such a player, no amount of bets can be exaggerated on him.

But...will it really go that smoothly?

Even for Lin Dong, this is a big gamble.

This is an era of basketball genius explosion, and all parties have secretly conducted investigations, not only Japan, but also the Dragon Kingdom, and even the United States.

At the Nike Basketball Summit, the world team formed by Lin Dong and the others will have to face the most powerful young generation of talents in the United States.

There are twists and turns in this. In the previous six Nike Summits, the U.S. team tied with the World Team 3-3, and lost miserably in 98 and 99. Last year, they only beat the World Team by 1 point. .

This made the United States, which considers itself the kingdom of basketball, very unhappy and caused the Nike Summit to lose a lot of audience in the United States. Therefore, in the second half of last year, there were even rumors that the event would be suspended because the Americans were afraid of losing again...

The final decision to continue was based on two basic reasons.

First, with the strong support of NBA President Stern, both the NSAA and the NCAA expressed their full support for this Nike Summit. LeBron James, who entered the NSAA All-American Team, Texas High School Basketball Mr. Chris Bosh, BCL Carmelo Anthony, the most valuable player, and Kwame Brown, who is now known as the strongest high school student in the United States and will participate in this year's 01 NBA draft, have announced their joining. In addition, there are some well-known college players that the NCAA has played, such as Dwyane Wade, etc. The lineup has been hailed as unprecedentedly powerful by the American media who have regained confidence in the Nike Summit.

Secondly, in order to bring together the most talented players in the United States, the old coach K of NCAA Duke University will personally serve as the head coach of the US team at this Nike Summit.

These two conditions gave Americans unparalleled confidence and began to pay renewed attention to this year's Nike Summit.

It is conceivable that under the leadership of Old K, this team composed of the strongest young people in the United States will burst out with what kind of fighting power!

…………

Li Qiuping was a little worried about Lao Li, and also a little worried about Lin Dong.

The opponent is too powerful, which is why Lao Li's "enemies" know that Lao Li is playing a game, but they still dare to get involved.

Facing such an American team, how can Lin Dong perform no matter how strong his personal ability is? Not to mention that Lin Dong himself already has a certain reputation in the high-level basketball circles in the United States. They will not ignore him and be stunned by his sudden outburst.

And once the world team loses the game, how big a hole has Lao Li dug for others? The last one to jump in will be himself, and maybe Lin Dong will be involved...

　Transition chapter, two updates today, add a small explanation, the Nike Summit from 2001 to 2003 was actually discontinued, for unknown reasons, this is also the reason why James did not participate in the Nike Summit.

　　In this book, history has actually begun to change from this moment...
