I’m Really Playing Basketball

I'm really playing basketball. The Golden Eagle Legend of the Northland Chapter 93 China, Great Wall, Yao Ming! Since being brought into the national team by Teacher Zhang, Chen Xiao has been looking forward to his national team trip.

And I heard from Teacher Zhang that if it were not for the injury of God of War Liu Yudong [Note 1], in fact, this World Championships would not have his turn.

After all, the national team has been training for the World Championships for three months. In order to train, Yao Ming did not even participate in the draft.

Chen Xiao is an NBA lottery show. Even if domestic fans are expecting him, they should pay attention to a first come, first come, right?

But there is really no way. 2002 was really an eventful season for the Chinese men's basketball team. Wang Zhizhi's failure to return and the God of War Liu Yudong nearly retired from injury.

The two pillars of Chinese basketball in the past few years have all been lost.

If it weren't for Yao Ming to win the NBA draft pick.

Chen Xiao became the first Chinese defender in the NBA, the seventh in the first round.

This year's Chinese basketball is really a gloomy year.

However, it is precisely because of the existence of Yao Ming and Chen Xiao that Chinese basketball not only has no depression in this eventful autumn, but has become as active and high-spirited as a virtual fire.

Yao Ming, who had always been a younger brother in the past, succeeded in becoming the leader of the team.

Chen Xiao, who should not be in the national team this year, came to the national team ahead of schedule.

In this eventful year of Chinese basketball, both Yao Ming and Chen Xiao are beneficiaries.

At the same time, after Yao Ming and Chen Xiao succeeded in taking office, Chinese basketball has also entered a new era.

On August 15, 2002, when Chen Xiao and the Nets team came to the Chinese team training camp in Indianapolis, they were met by the team’s head coach Faye Wong, the team’s new head Yao Ming, and the team who came to the United States with the team. A warm welcome from Chinese media reporters.

"Xiao Chen, welcome to join the national team!"

And not only the Chinese media, Chen Xiao can clearly see many white-skinned blonde figures in these surrounding groups.

Obviously, this is not the Chinese media. It should be journalists from international media and other scout coaches participating in teams around the world.

The World Championships will be in another half month, and the Chinese team is one of the three most popular teams voted on the FIBA ​​official website.

A team with only one NBA champion and an NBA Lotto No. 7 pick can be ignored by any team except the United States.

A person who can be a head coach or a coach in the national team of each country, which one is not a human being.

It doesn't matter what the specific strength of Yao Ming and Chen Xiao is.

Just from the draft picks of Chen Xiao and Yao Ming, the Chinese team needs to be focused on investigation.

Thus, in the 2002 World Championships, the Chinese team received the greatest international attention in history.

All of a sudden, the Chinese team fully established the status of the three favorites to win the World Championships.

This made the media reporters and basketball officials who came to the United States with the team very excited and happy.

"Yao Ming and Chen Xiao aroused huge international attention!"

"The road ahead for the Chinese men's basketball team is bright!"

"Our Chinese team is invincible!"

Don't domestic leaders, ordinary people, and audiences just like this kind of news?

The Chinese team's sense of expectation in the World Championships was filled to an incredible level for a time.

The Chinese team is so optimistic in this World Championships, so there are so many cards, not only the team reporters, the Chinese team's team leader, the coaching staff are happy, and the players are also happy.

Who doesn't want to be touted?

Not a saint.

Even Chen Xiao was very happy.

The Chinese team is optimistic, of course roar!

Chen Xiao came here not only to serve the country and to honor his ancestors.

At the same time, Chen Xiao came here with his own personal thoughts.

That is to strive for the best team.

MVP, Chen Xiao would not think about it.

It must be one of the champions of the US team.

In addition to the MVP, five best team, FIBA ​​has always liked to support international teams.

As long as the Chinese team has a good record and Chen Xiao has excellent data, the chances are great.

If the Chinese team is not optimistic, it is a weak team, no matter how good Chen Xiao's data is, is it useless?

For Chen Xiao, the best case is that the Chinese team is a thigh team like Marquette University, and Yao Ming is a thigh teammate like Wade. Chen Xiao can follow the team to make achievements and then reap the honor.

Before coming to the national team, Chen Xiao was still a little worried whether the strength of the national team was not enough.

Now, Chen Xiao is relieved!

Now, the key is to integrate into the team and gain a position!

Relying on Chen Xiao's superb EQ, Chen Xiao quickly became acquainted with the old players in the team.

In order to have a good relationship, it is not only to know how to observe the words, but more importantly, to know how to brag together.

Even the cowhide has not been blown together, so are you embarrassed to be good buddies?

At this point, Chen Xiao, one of the two focus of the national team, did a good job.

As a lottery show in the NBA, he has no arrogance, is humble, outgoing, innocent and romantic, and has a harmless look. It is really unbearable.

What is even more unbearable is that when the team was training, Chen Xiao's unusually bright eyes looked at the veterans of the Chinese team always like ‘I’m very curious! ’’S eyes.

This makes the Chinese players feel that Chen Xiao's NBA first-round lottery show seems to admire their skills very much.

Whether it's Hu Weidong's possession, Liu Wei's pass, or Battelle's confrontation, Chen Xiao is always full of curiosity like a curious baby.

Let alone veterans like Hu Weidong and Battelle, even Liu Wei, Yao Ming's ‘little follower’, feels very useful.

This is the first round of the NBA!

The qualifications are shallow.

But the status is precious!

Chen Xiao is not worshipping, Chen Xiao is simply full of curiosity about everything.

For Arenas, for Marion, he was very curious.

Of course, these players of the Chinese team are also very curious.

After all, everyone is blown so strong, so where is everyone strong?

Therefore, Chen Xiao is like a little butterfly in the game ‘Flower Bush’, playing quite well in the national team.

On the contrary, as an old man of the national team, Yao Ming, the new boss, is somewhat out of tune with the team.

The team now has neither Wang Zhizhi nor Liu Yudong. It is the first time that Yao Ming is under great pressure.

Especially when everyone was touted as if they had been beaten up by hormones, they were getting angry, imaginary fire, and looking like Laozi was invincible in the world, and he must be sitting around looking for three. Yao Ming was even more worried.

The teammates were all bragging, Chen Xiao followed, and laughed together with arms akimbo.

And Yao Ming is always there with a sad face.

If you are a teammate, who do you like?

"Dayao is in a different position now, and the shelf has been picked up."

"Yes, after being the boss, the biggest danger is to be separated from the masses. Dayao is already a little bit divorced from the masses."

"They are all NBA lottery shows. I think Xiao Chen is very good. Xiao Chen, come on. After two years of experience in the national team, we will cover you. Two years later, we will support you as the boss!"

Although Chen Xiao is harmless and a simple person, he is not an idiot.

Which team is changing, and there is no ‘undercurrent’ in it? 【Note 2】

What's more, he was also a person who participated in the re-election of Marquette University, Men Qing.

Therefore, in the face of the team's "big guys", Chen Xiao just smirked and did not express his position.

Outside the door, after the extra training, Yao Ming, who was going to enter the lounge to take a bath and change his clothes, put his hand back when he was about to open the door and enter.

Ugh……

A sigh.

Tired...

"Dayao..."

Seeing Yao Ming leaving with a bitter face, Liu Wei looked at the closed door and followed him.

After Chen Xiao came to Indianapolis, the Chinese team became the focus of the entire World Championships.

Yao Ming, Chen Xiao, and the Chinese team have become the focus of FIBA ​​World Championships to tout against the United States.

In this regard, the Chinese team is very proud.

However, as the host, the US team does not think so.

What if Yao Ming is the top pick?

How about Chen Xiao even as a lottery guard?

Which one of the top and bottom of the U.S. team is not a famous NBA figure?

Fortunately, Chen Xiao is a person who has proved himself in the United States, and the lottery is also acceptable.

But why did Yao Ming become the champion in 2002?

It's not just those on the draft scene who have opinions on Yao Ming's No. 1 pick.

There are plenty of people in the NBA.

August 20, 2002.

The World Championships warm-up match between the Chinese team and the US team.

Under the leadership of Celtic star Paul Pierce, the United States team is ready to give Yao Ming a smash.

"We each gave $400, and 12 people totaled $4,800. If anyone can dunk on Yao Ming for the first time, he will take all of this money!"

"Hahahaha, there is not much money, and the important thing is not money. The important thing is to blast Yao Ming and crush the ‘champion’!"

Pierce's arrogant laughter was filled with disdain for Yao Ming and Yao Ming's champion.

For Pierce’s proposal, some people shrugged, some people don’t care, but some people, it’s really positive.

For example, Jay Williams, who has always thought Yao Ming robbed the top pick.

In this warm-up match between the Chinese team and the US team on August 15, 2002, Chen Xiao was sitting on the bench.

For the time being he is still a substitute.

And Chen Xiao, sitting on the bench, saw the NBA stars of the Dream Five team rushing to Yao Ming one by one.

"They want to dunk on Dayao's head!"

Soon, Chen Xiao saw the abnormality of these American team players.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao stood up with some worry.

This is an extremely difficult game for Yao Ming.

The Chinese team lost 30 points in the game, and the score is actually not important.

The important thing is Yao Ming!

No kidding, these NBA stars of the US team played Yao Ming in the face in this game, just like the "Great Wall of China" in the face.

It's not that Yao Ming is shameless and binds himself to China and the Great Wall.

It is domestic public opinion that actively binds Yao Ming to China and the Great Wall!

When the game was over, Chen Xiao, standing on the sidelines, was shocked looking at the ‘Giant’ who was still standing there.

The American fans and reporters at the scene, as well as Pierce and the American team players on the court were also shocked.

13 points, 11 rebounds, 6 blocks and 3 assists in the game!

Faced with the crazy targeting and impact of the US team players.

Yao Ming stayed still, guarding China, the Great Wall, and his own dignity like the Great Wall!

"Unexpectedly, I was not detained once!"

Pat Riley's eyes flickered constantly on the sidelines.

Humility, hard work, and extraordinary self-esteem and perseverance, the key is to have strength and talent!

"Eric, we really found the treasure!"

Spoelstra nodded as if smashing garlic at this moment.

Keeping the dignity of yourself and behind yourself!

There is no smile on Yao Ming's face, he just feels relieved now.

What he was carrying on his back was too heavy, so heavy that he couldn't breathe and couldn't stop for a moment.

Body tired.

The ignorant heart is even more tiring to walk alone.

"Dayao."

Yao Ming, who got down from the court, looked up and saw Chen Xiao who was already on the sidelines to greet him, and he was taken aback.

"Do you want to help?"

The expression on Chen Xiao's face is still so cheerful, and those big talking eyes are all sincere.

"Thank you, no..."

Before Yao Ming finished speaking, Chen Xiao took the initiative to support Yao Ming.

"My shoulders look thin, but they are very powerful. Would you like to try?"

took a look.

Not very powerful.

But, it's okay.

Finally, Yao Ming put his hand on Chen Xiao's shoulder.

"Tired?"

"Not tired."

"you're lying."

"Ok."

Chen Xiao smiled.

Yao Ming also laughed.

At this moment, whether it is a tired body or a tired heart, it seems to be moisturized by the sweet spring.

The feeling of being accompanied by someone...

that's nice.

ps: Confirmed. The book is not yet on the shelves. Now the starting point is changed. The contract book can also be voted monthly, and it is also a grade.

So, although it is not on the shelves yet, I still ask for a monthly pass! ! ! ! !

ps: Four thousand-character chapters will be sent. There will be unlimited chapters during the public period. When they are on the shelves, the number of words will be 500,000 words. Haha, it's crazy, so I ask for monthly support! ! ! !

Note 1: At this time, Liu Yudong had ten broken bones in his knee. The medical conditions were not good, and he couldn't take it out. For general reasons, the national team had to recruit the most reliable Liu Yudong except Yao Ming to participate in the competition as a soldier for insurance. , For the honor of the country, the God of War has no hesitation, and the final result is that the hero does not fear death, but fears the words.

In the first game of the World Championships, the Chinese team played Germany, Liu Yudong, Gong Xiaobin, and Du Feng were brutally abused by Nowitzki. The three figures added up to 10, 1 point and two rebounds. The Chinese team's striker was defeated by Nowitzki. It was a pity that Yao Ming, Battelle, Hu Weidong, and Li Nan were in good shape. In the end, the “big favorite” Chinese team lost 76 to 88. For a time, domestic public opinion was in an uproar.

Entering into battle with injuries, the Chinese team’s striker boss, and Nowitzki, the war **** Liu Yudong, who was completely blown up, naturally carried all the pots on his back. The hat of'civil war expert, foreign war expert' was buckled on Liu Yudong's body completely .

The pot carried by the God of War at that time can be compared to Zhou Qi after he finished playing Poland.

A generation of God of War fell.

From our current perspective, shouldn't it be right for Nowitzki to abuse Liu Yudong, whose knees have been crushed?

But it was different then.

At that time, China was the fourth favorite after the United States, Yugoslavia, and Canada.

At that time, the goal of the Chinese men's basketball team was to'sit down and watch three.

At that time, everyone's spirits were very high.

At that time ~www.readwn.com~Germany, what Nowitzki was.

At that time, our Chinese men's basketball team had the universe in mind!

Keke, ran off the track.

Note 2: In the 2002 World Championships, the relationship within the Chinese team was not so harmonious. The team pushed Yao Ming to the top. Yao Ming's qualifications are still low. This can be seen from an interview by Yao Ming during the World Championships.

Reporter: How did you feel when you saw Yugoslavia winning the United States?

Yao Ming: Don't say anything is worse than others. Yugoslavia lost 10 points in the fourth quarter, and it can be turned back to prove that there is nothing impossible to do. The American team composed of NBA players lost, and our NBA students also lost. This is called the master and apprentice lose together. Some people are still happy, saying that the US team also lost, and I don't know what Coke is.

From Yao Ming's answer, it can be seen that Yao Ming is very uncomfortable with the behavior of the national team when it is blown up and shirks responsibility to make excuses when it loses.

In the 2002 World Championships, Yao Ming really moved forward alone.
