king of defenders

Chapter 1366 In order not to regret
In the arena.

The Chinese team is training.

Director Gong stood on the sidelines and looked at the players, shouting from time to time to remind the players what to pay attention to.

Half an hour later, Director Gong called a stop, called the players to his side, and said: "Tomorrow is the semi-finals, and our opponent is Australia. The strength of Australia should not be underestimated. There are many NBA players, and from their Judging from the previous games, they are a very good defensive team, we must be careful."

As he said that, Director Gong's expression became more serious: "This game against Australia is the most critical game since the beginning of the Basketball World Cup. If we beat Australia, we will be able to advance to the final. No matter how the final will be, at least we have reached the final." Our goal is to secure a medal. But if we lose, then we will have to participate in the 3rd and 4th qualifying rounds, and compete with another team for No.3. The result will be hard to say."

"So, I want you to put on a desperate stance, treat this game as the last one, and win this game for me."

"Win this game, you are heroes!"

Everyone was heartbroken and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

Director Gong nodded, and suddenly said: "Today's training is here, go take a shower, and gather at the hotel later. We temporarily rented a meeting room in the hotel to show you something."

Everyone is curious, what are you looking at?
Director Gong didn't explain, turned around and left.

Everyone talked curiously, washed up, and then returned to the hotel to gather, led by the palace guide to the conference room.

The hotel's conference room can be temporarily rented to guests for large-scale conferences, which are equipped with corresponding equipment, including projectors, etc.

At this moment, the teaching assistant had already turned on the projector, and Director Gong waved to everyone, motioning them to sit down and keep quiet.

Everyone looked at the projection cloth in unison.

Soon, a picture appeared on the projection cloth, and Guo Ailun shouted in surprise: "It's the 08 Olympic Games. I watched this game. It was the one we played against Spain. It's a pity that we lost in the end. It was just a little bit short. What a pity."

"Quiet." Director Gong shouted.

Guo Ailun shut up.

The teammates couldn't help snickering, don't we know which game this is, you're the only one who talks too much.

This was a match that almost made history for the Chinese men's basketball team in the 08 Olympics. Against Spain, the score was tense.

"Later, Brother Yao participated in a program and said that that game was the regret of his life. If he could do it again, he would have to guard against Gasol's goal even if his leg was broken. To defend that ball, we will I won." Meng Yun also watched the video of this game and heard Yao Ming mention it.

What does it mean that the palace director asked them to see this at this moment?
Into the semi-finals?

We've done it.

Beat Spain?
We did too.

Director Gong didn't explain, and everyone didn't want to ask, so they continued to watch the game.

Seeing that the Chinese team took the lead at the end of the game, but was overtaken by Gasol Jr. 2+1, everyone couldn't hold back their emotions and beat their feet and chests.

Seeing Yao Ming gasping for breath under the exhaustion of Gasol, big and small, but still running hard, grabbing every rebound, and seeing Wang Zhizhi's unwilling eyes at the end
For a while, the atmosphere became oppressive.

After watching a game, everyone felt a little more in their hearts.

However, this did not end, Director Gong gestured to the assistant coach and continued to play the next game.
Some of these games were in the 08 Olympics, and some were earlier, but not all of them were key games like the 08 Olympics against Spain.

After reading these, it is already night.

Without continuing to play the next game, Director Gong stood up, and everyone looked at him.

Director Gong said: "The reason why I show you these today is to let you see how your seniors played in the past. I don't talk about skills, players' personal strength, I hope you can see their attitude towards the game. Their hard work on the field."

As he said that, Director Gong was a little moved, and his tone was low: "We didn't have Meng Yun and Xiang Long in those years. Well, most of you can't experience it, and you haven't experienced it, but Ah Lian should know."

Yi Jian nodded and said, "Especially in 08, the game against Spain was also my regret. If I could play better then."

Director Gong waved his hand: "That's not your fault, times have changed, so don't worry about it." He said, looking at other players, "At the beginning we didn't have players like Meng Yun and Xiang Long, and there was a big gap between us and European and American teams , we can only rely on hard work, grab every rebound, grab every ball."

"Under the environment that year, we reached the quarterfinals twice. Although they were only No.8, they were still heroes."

"Looking at the past few years, before Meng Yun joined the national team, what were our results? Every time we couldn't even qualify for the group stage. It's really just because the players are not strong enough. It's because there are no players like Yao Ming and Zhu Fangyu. ? No, I don't think so."

Everyone already understood the meaning of the palace guide at this moment.

Thinking carefully about the videos of the games I saw just now, and thinking about how I played, everyone lowered their heads and looked up shamelessly.

What has the national team lacked in the past few years?
Maybe everything is missing, but the key is that the players don't have the hard work and courage to win at all.

Director Gong said again: "Tomorrow's semi-final is our chance to create history and win a medal. This opportunity is something we have never had before. If Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi were there, they would be desperate and Win no matter how high the price is.”

"No one knows what will happen in the future. Now we have Meng Yun and Xiang Long, but it doesn't mean that we will reach the semi-finals every time in the future, and we will have such opportunities."

"So, I hope you will do your best tomorrow to win this game, for the honor of the national team, and for not leaving regrets in your life like Yao Ming and the others." Director Gong took a deep breath, his voice high, " Tomorrow, only for victory!"

Everyone was shocked.

Meng Yun felt his blood was boiling and his heart was surging, and he shouted loudly: "For the honor of the national team, in order not to leave any regrets. We must win!"

"Definitely!"

Everyone opened their mouths and shouted loudly.

Seeing the players with high morale and fighting spirit, Director Gong smiled.

Tomorrow, I hope it will be a good weather!
