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

Chapter 232 Long Guo National Youth Team List

Dragon Kingdom, Yanjing.

Lin Dong really had a headache for two days after returning to China. Compared with the enthusiasm of the people in Seattle, the people in the community in Longguo are really more enthusiastic...

Fortunately, at the airport, the main audience of the Nike Summit is still the majority of fans, but it has not been popularized across the country, so not many people know him.

But back at the Ministry of Railways compound where my grandparents lived, it was really a household name.

The younger ones call him brother, and the older ones call him nephew, which makes everyone want to come up and pinch him to make something cool.

The old man gave him a banquet in the community that day. When he talked about fighting the Americans, the old man was very excited, as if his grandson had inherited his mantle on the battlefield to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea. His once proud son was here. He instantly became worthless in front of his grandson, and he was able to honor his ancestors.

By the way, I also helped this grandson to announce in advance in the community that on June 6th, he will go to Japan to fight Americans. Old friends are welcome to form a group and go to Japan to watch!

Tsk, these two terms really hit the most itch in the old man's heart. That posture made him wish he could go to Tokyo with a bayonet to cheer his grandson live.

Many old comrades in his community were very excited after hearing this and regarded Lin Dong as a treasure. The aunts were even more enthusiastic. They brought various granddaughters to visit them whenever they had nothing to do. But it actually feels like a blind date.

After being tormented by the old man's various old buddies and sisters for two days, I felt more tired than playing two games. I didn't even have time to go to the invitations of Sun Yue and Zhu Fangyu.

It wasn't until the 19th that the National Youth Team went to Wukesong to report, and they finally managed to escape.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Sun Yue drove up to pick up Lin Dong in his cool Lamborghini GT. He had borrowed the car for half a month and took good care of it.

Speaking of the half month since he left, a lot of things have happened one after another in the basketball world of Long Country.

In the CBA finals, Dayao's Sharks swept Bayi, which had won four consecutive championships, 3-0 and won the CBA championship in the 00-01 season.

Although he had already guessed it, hearing Sun Yue talk about it with his own ears still made Lin Dong feel sad.

Historically, Bayi should have won five consecutive championships, but because Wang Zhizhi left for the NBA two years early, Dayao, who had grown up now, had no rivals in the country, and the dynasty came to an end.

At the same time, the day after the CBA Finals, Dayao had officially announced that he would participate in this year's 01 NBA draft.

The Basketball Association and the Sharks Club subsequently expressed support for this, and it is now a foregone conclusion that by early May, they will rush to the United States to participate in the NBA's open trial training there.

After all, it is Yao, and many people are optimistic that his draft pick will be higher than that of Wang Zhizhi. Now domestic fans have long been looking forward to this.

"Lao Zhu was bragging yesterday, saying that the most popular Kwame Brown in the United States is not worth mentioning in front of him and was beaten into a pig's head by him. Boss Yao's strength is at least two levels higher than him! Ha, if Boss Yao gets the No. 1 pick this time, our Dragon Kingdom will be really embarrassed! Brother Lin, do you think this is possible?"

In the parking lot of the gymnasium, Sun Yue said excitedly while reversing the car, and Lin Dong heard it funny.

Is it possible? Dayao is already the top pick. If Kwame Brown really tries out with Dayao, he will be turned into a scumbag.

But...huh?

Lin Dong didn't answer him, but he took a look at the odometer in the car. Good guy, he actually ran more than two thousand kilometers in half a month. This is for long-distance running...

"Don't worry about whether Yao can be the number one pick. You've been playing car racing for half a month, haven't you trained? What about the World Championships? Can you do it?"

Sun Yue's face was full of joy: "I even sleep in the car, just because I'm afraid that some blind person will scratch me. It's not easy to have business with you, isn't it?"

When Lin Dong heard this, he immediately became wary: "You won't do anything weird with my car, right?"

"What's weird?"

"Leave something dirty or something."

"Tsk! What are you thinking? She can't move in this space." Sun Yue laughed loudly: "Guys usually stay behind the car."

"...It's only April, I can't freeze you to death!"

"The colder it gets, the harder it gets!"

The two of them got out of the car while talking.

"The car is nice." A voice said with a smile behind them.

Turning his head to look, Sun Yue couldn't help but shiver, and for a moment he was as honest as a quail: "Good morning, guide Jiang!"

Director Jiang nodded, looked at Lin Dong again, and said with a smile: "Nike Summit is a good one, keep up the good work. I hope we can create a history for the Long Guoqing team this time." Lin Dong naturally said a few polite words. , this old man has white hair, but with a short cut and a square, upright face, he looks quite energetic.

After he left, I saw Sun Yue breathing a sigh of relief: "I was almost scared to death..."

"What are you afraid of?" Lin Dong said amusedly, "Director Jiang is very kind, isn't he?"

"That's to be kind to you!" Sun Yue wiped his cold sweat and said fearfully: "This is Coach Jiang, a famous devil coach, who also hates players making special arrangements. What if I was driving a GT by myself? Come here, now you are waiting to collect the body for me."

"Is it that exaggerated?"

"Tsk! You really can't believe it. Last year, a big boss of the national team drove over in a Mercedes-Benz and almost made me doubt life. He said that this is the place for the national team and ruined the team's image by talking about pomp and circumstance... I guess now You are the only one in the country who can get this special treatment. During the meeting that day, Lao Li said that the habits and requirements of returnees are a little different from those of us who came from the system, so we should try our best to adapt to and accept each other."

Lin Dong nodded. No one knew the rules of the national team better than him, and he cared about these formal things.

Frankly speaking, Lin Dong feels that these are still very necessary and are the inner cultivation of a team's spirit. It seems that in the future, we really can't drive a GT to show off.

Jiang Xinquan is a Beidou-level figure in the men's basketball team.

The former two-time head coach of the national team, when the Dragon Kingdom reached the top eight of the World Championships for the first time in its history, it was this coach who led the team. However, during the Sydney Olympics last year, the Dragon Country men's basketball team failed to break into the quarter-finals. The old man was so devastated by his tenth place finish that he temporarily stepped down as head coach of the national team.

With his status in the Dragon Kingdom men's basketball team, if it weren't for the emergence of such a good prospect like Lin Dong this year and Lao Li begging to be released, Director Jiang would probably still be resting at home right now.

…………

The gathering of the national youth team naturally requires some pre-war mobilization. Coach Jiang is an expert in this field and knows how to mobilize the enthusiasm and emotions of the players. He also announced a rough training plan immediately.

It's nothing more than physical fitness and basic training in the morning, and actual combat training in the afternoon. The rhythm and flow are similar to the daily training that Lin Dong participated in before at the Sharks Club.

But compared to these young players, whose oldest is 19 years old and whose youngest is only 12 years old, this amount of training is indeed a bit too 'powerful'.

Frankly speaking, in Lin Dong's opinion, this is not reasonable enough. After all, everyone's physique is different, and if you are too young, such high-intensity training may not be good for your body.

But there is no way. In this era, the Dragon Country's knowledge base on health and scientific training is not as deep as it was in 2028, and there are not so many professional standards to measure the specific amount of training, and the national team has always been In a place where results are important, the current slogan is still based on the principle of "three from one and one". It is also a trend to have a large amount of training. Anyway, it is only more than a month.

Lin Dong naturally didn't talk much. He just listened to Jiang's instructions and looked at the teammates around him.

Speaking of which, most of them are seniors whom I am familiar with when they were in the National Youth League.

Three major centers.

Tang Zhengdong, one of the absolute main players of the National Youth Team, comes from Jiangsu Nanjing Steel. This season in the CBA regular season, he averaged 17.5 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.3 steals, and an All-Star player who averaged 2 blocks per game. He just made his first CBA All-Star Game debut in Changchun a few days ago.

His substitute is center Moko, who also comes from the CBA Shenbu Club. In his rookie season in the CBA last year, he averaged 18.1 points, 6 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1.2 blocks per game. He is already quite mature on both offense and defense. player of.

Both of these two were born in 82. They are the oldest in the national youth team. They are the absolute mainstays in terms of strength and experience. Their personalities seem to be okay for the time being. They are not out of line or putting on airs. Compared with Zhu Fangyu and others I know a few people from CBA quite well, so naturally I got acquainted with Lin Dong.

The two shooting guards are both very familiar old friends of Lin Dong, Zhu Fangyu and Wang Shipeng, who call themselves the two tigers of Guangdong.

The point guards are also acquaintances, Sun Yue, and Zhang Qingpeng, who just announced this year that he will join the Liaoning Panpan first team.

Lin Dong was naturally selected as the small forward, and the other one was Liu Ziqiu, who had been taught by him in the Sharks before. When they met in the arena, Liu Ziqiu saw that Lin Dong was obviously embarrassed, and knew that Sun Yue and Zhu Fangyu were Both the gangster and Lin Dong were wearing a pair of trousers, so he looked quite low-key with his head hanging to one side.

Power forward Wang Lei was born in the Jiaozuo Youth Sports School in Henan Province. He is 196 centimeters and 92kg in size and looks relatively thin. Lin Dong doesn’t have much impression in his memory. He has only vaguely heard of the name, but he doesn’t know what his strength is.

But another young backup power forward is like thunder in Lin Dong's ears.

In the era when Dragon Kingdom basketball was in decline, it was known as the last glory and watcher of Dragon Kingdom basketball: Yi Jianlian!

Compared with the man in later generations who rushed to the referee and declared domineeringly that he wanted to be a 'Rafi', Yi Jianlian at this time still looked quite young and very thin. However, with a height of 202 centimeters, he looked He doesn't look like a 14-year-old at all.

However, this is not the youngest member of this U19 national youth team.

In addition to these 10 people on the substitute list, the National Youth League also included two other young players.

One is Zhang Songtao, who is on the same team as Sun Yue. He is now playing for the Yanjing Aoshen Second Team and is a center forward.

The other one is the youngest in the team now, and another national player whom Lin Dong was familiar with before crossing over: Chen Jianghua, who is currently only 12 years old on his ID card... is 180 centimeters tall. Anyway, Lin Dong looks at him. He looks too much like a 12-year-old.

12-man roster, capital for the U19 campaign.

Looking at Yi Di, who is still very young, and the Asian Lightning, who is said to be 12 years old, Lin Dong is also very excited. He may be a bit young, but these are real celebrities in the Dragon Kingdom basketball world!
