Standing pretty old

Chapter 50 Summer League ([-])

The Tianchao men's basketball team won the first game in a row, but they encountered big trouble in the game against the Kings the next day.

Before the game, Ruan Erniu said to A Lian with a relaxed face: "Hey! Handsome guy, you went to the wrong place! Your teammates are over there!"

After finishing speaking, Ruan Erniu pointed to the king's bench, and then the whole team burst out laughing, and Alian, who was so shy, also grinned relaxedly.

Er Niu would never have imagined that this was actually the only time he had fun that day.Because the next game is simply torture.

Throughout the game, except for Ruan Erniu who was still scoring points steadily, the team's touch seemed to have been stolen.

Lao You was very angry off the court. He really didn't understand what problems this national team encountered, why they couldn't play all of a sudden?

In fact, the reason is very simple, the players are slack!After they ushered in Ruan Erniu, they immediately won consecutive opponents, thinking that with superstars in the team, they would not lose to a group of black athletes.

The consecutive victories made them misjudge their own strength. Of course, there is another point that is also crucial. The physical weakness of the national men's basketball team has once again been exposed.Many players have to save their running energy when defending, otherwise they may not even be able to complete the offense.

In modern basketball, or modern sports, physical strength has always been the most basic indicator.If this indicator does not meet the standard, the hope of winning the game may be very slim.

Sure enough, the Tianchao men's basketball team finally lost the game with a big score of 62:73. Although Ruan Erniu scored 38 points, 25 rebounds and 8 fouls ([-] fouls in the summer league), he still failed to save the team. A national team with no touch.

In fact, Ruan Erniu is also the only fig leaf for the men's basketball team in this game.If it weren't for him, the Tianchao men's basketball team would have been humiliated beyond recognition.

And look at the players on this Kings team: Quincy Dolby, Francisco Garcia, Darryl Watkins, Justin Williams...

Even American fans who often watch the NBA find it difficult to call them all by name, but such a team easily destroyed the Tianchao men's basketball team. (Quincy Dolby: "Nonsense, I am very famous in China!" Voice-over: "Please respect the relevant regulations of the Space-Time Administration. Now you are still a third-rate player in the United States, thank you!")
Yunus's anger after the game is naturally conceivable.

"I can't see any improvement from you! You are not a whole at all, and your mental will is not put on winning at all. Looking at the number of fouls committed by Kraft, you can imagine how vulnerable your defense is. It's..."

In fact, in Lao You's original words, there are more river crab words, which were properly skipped by Zheng Chen's translation.

Deputy director Hu, the team leader who has always spoken kindly, also criticized the team's lack of fighting spirit. They need to raise their ideological awareness. The country's spending money to let them come to the United States is not a vacation.

Through this match, Ruan Erniu finally understood Dayao's difficulties.The teammate CBA turned out to be just some dark and secret words on the Internet.But when this becomes a reality and your opponent is a quasi-NBA level, it is really painful.

What Ruan Erniu didn't expect was that Yunus found him that night: "Kraft, I decided not to let you play tomorrow, can you accept it?"

Ruan Erniu nodded helplessly, and he also understood that this was Lao You's way of motivating his teammates.

Jonas went on to say: "Don't worry too much, your strength is obvious to all. The summer league is not a place where a star of your level should come. You and Dayao are the type of people who are destined to become the rulers of the court. Now What we lack is the third and fourth strengths besides the two of you."

On July 7, the Tianchao Men's Basketball team faced the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The core character of this team is Shannon Brown, who was as famous as LeBron James in high school. As we all know, talented players have code-style initials, and Brown's initials are "SB".

Well, don't pay attention to these non-competition related things.

Brown caught up with a good time today, because Ruan Erniu was not on the court.So he, the guy with TNT strapped to his legs, completely exploded. If he had nothing to do, he frantically bombed the Tianchao team's basket.

After the deduction, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, I glanced at the position where Ruan Erniu was.The provocative meaning in the eyes cannot be concealed at all.

This made Ruan Erniu, who was sitting off the court, very upset, and almost asked Lao You to let him go on the court, so that he could teach this ignorant boy a good lesson.

In addition to Brown, Daniel Gibson is another strong point of the Cavaliers on the court. His precise outside shooting always threatens the Tianchao men's basketball team.Just when he played against the Pistons in the playoffs last year, the pitcher used his efficient and precise three-pointers to help LBJ successfully kill his opponent and made great contributions to winning the Eastern Conference championship.

The Cavaliers played vigorously, but today's national team also did not lose to their opponents.

The game was very stalemate. Since the opening, the score has hardly been pulled above 5 points.

The two sides come and go, not giving in to each other, coupled with the dunk performances staged from time to time, the audience who bought tickets for this game should still be able to earn back the ticket price.

It is worth mentioning that Allen finally broke out in this game.

After losing to his home team, the Kings yesterday, Allen finally let go of his burden and fired with full force.He scored a team-high 20 points, 4 rebounds and 3 blocks in the game.

The most important thing is that, at the last moment of the game, and there was not much time left, Allen still calmly played the opponent with his back, and used a step back to wipe the board and shoot the decisive shot to kill the Cavaliers.

In this battle, the self-confidence of the men's basketball team was completely played out.Without the help of superstars like Dayao and Erniu, they defeated their opponents by virtue of their own strength.

Wang Zhizhi scored 18 points and 7 rebounds, and the veteran still played steadily.

王石鹏拿下了16分4板3助攻，今天“天朝科比王”似乎也找到了一点去年干掉斯洛文尼亚的感觉。朱方雨也投开了三分，拿下15分。刘伟贡献6分4板4助攻。

The Tianchao men's basketball team was able to win the opponent 85:84 today, which indeed relied on the excellent performance of the whole team.

Although the Tianchao fans in front of the TV regretted not being able to see Ruan Erniu's explosive performance, the overall excellent performance of the Tianchao men's basketball team gave everyone hope for the 08 Imperial Capital Olympic Games.

Ruan Erniu frantically waved towels to cheer his teammates off the court. After this game, the momentum of the whole team reached its peak.

After the national team got a day's rest, they will usher in their next opponent - the New York Knicks!
Ruan Erniu was warming up while observing his opponent today.Watching and watching, somehow the name of a cartoon popped up in his mind: "Mindless and Unhappy".
