Super Small Forward

: Seven hundred and thirty. Some little things before the Olympics

It takes 15 hours to fly from Beijing to Rio de Janeiro. Fortunately, on special flights, you can fly there directly. Otherwise, if you want to transfer, you will have to stay on the plane for at least 20 hours.

This time, the cabins of the men’s basketball team are all first-class cabins. The seats are wide and you can lie down and rest. Others are covered by Liu Ren's light. Like the 12th Olympics, they were crowded in economy class. There are other athletes and staff together.

Liu Ren usually has very little entertainment. He is similar to an ordinary otaku. He likes to watch TV, play games, sing and sing, watch movies, go shopping and clubbing, so he can only sleep and watch more than ten hours of boring airplanes. Movies on the plane.

After a long journey of ten hours, they arrived in Rio de Janeiro and lived in the Olympic Village.

An Olympic Games is not only an improvement of the image and popularity of a city, but also countless benefits for local residents.

Just say that those wealthy athletes who come out to buy a bunch of local gifts can bring huge tourism income to the local area, not to mention the countless tourists, which may be a blood loss for the developed countries to host the Olympics. For example, London, their security It cost billions of pounds, but for Brazil...the place is already chaotic, so don't come if you are afraid, and spend money if you come.

If athletes from America, Africa, and Australia come to Brazil, they will be there in a few hours, and Mexico will be there in two hours, while athletes from China and Europe will be exhausted with a flight of more than ten hours.

After arriving at the Olympic Village on the afternoon of the 30th, Liu Ren and the others came to the officially arranged apartment building. Liu Ren occupied a room in a suite in the small building belonging to their Chinese men's basketball team and lay down to sleep.

Although there are two beds in that room, no one rushes to squeeze him. In case of a beating, it is really a white beating. It is said that some people are getting up, and they decided not to provoke Liu Ren. This The guy is the master who beats his opponent to shock in NBA.

Compared with other sports, the men’s basketball team has a large number of staff. There are 12 players, 7 coaches, 5 officials, 6 staff, 3 team doctors, and 4 trainers, totaling 40 people. , Although there are many people in the national football team that are not as good as cheating, but it is also one of the most people in the national team of various projects.

...

...

On July 31st, early in the morning, Liu Ren got up from bed and slept for more than ten hours. He emptied all the exhaustion from training and long-distance exercise for several days before. He was full of energy and was hungry.

After taking a shower, Liu Ren went downstairs to find a place to eat.

Since even clenbuterol is considered a stimulant in anti-doping testing, Liu Ren didn't dare to go out to eat randomly. He asked the staff where the cafeteria was and went to the cafeteria for some breakfast.

For breakfast, this is what Liu Ren is most uncomfortable with. In the past two summers, Liu Ren has never been able to get up in the morning without having breakfast, because Da Lolita always prepares everything for the Olympic Games. , It is impossible to bring family members.

There is one thing that is bad in domestic sports. Players will be scolded if they play games and drag their mouths. Liu Ren’s public image is very important. He can go wild in the game and fight, but he His self-discipline and seriousness in the game have always been his labels, which can be used to make money, so even if Liu Ren lived alone in the presidential suite in Qingdao, he did not bring Gary.

The athletes in the national teams of various countries are leaders in their respective sports, and their self-discipline ability is generally very high. It was only a little over seven o'clock. Most of the players were already up. Liu Ren was stared at by many people on the way to the cafeteria.

Blacks, whites, yellows, and brown-skinned people all set their sights on him, and some people even came over to him for autographs.

This is the Americas. Although Brazil is a paradise for football, it is close to the United States and basketball is also a popular sport here. NBA is quite famous here, and Liu Ren's popularity here is also very high, especially the building where he lives is away from American athletes. His building is very close, and many European and American athletes are his fans.

Walking to the cafeteria in their area, Liu Ren just met some acquaintances. Has the Dream Team changed **** this year? Liu Ren felt very strange. Didn't the Dream Team always book a hotel by themselves? When playing the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, I directly contracted a mountain farmhouse and a big hotel to spend the leisurely and happily. I was envious of other Olympic teams. Why did I live in Brazil?

People on the American team also noticed Liu Ren.

James, Harden, Anthony, Westbrook, and Kobe are familiar with the five members who have partnered in the 12th Olympic Games, so they sat at the same table with Whiteside, Paul George, Lavin and others. .

This year’s U.S. team’s roster is an outside line composed of Harden, Westbrook, Owen, Thompson, Kobe, and LaVine, and an inside line composed of James, Durant, Anthony, Cousins, Paul George, and Whiteside. If It's not that Green chose to withdraw from the national team because of Green's personal reasons and replaced by Cousins. LaVine, who was selected to replace the ankle injury, left the Lakers. The US team can send an all-Lakers lineup...

Kobe was selected for the dream team, and Kidd was selected for the dream team in 2008. It means the same thing. It is just a mascot. If it is effective, it should be his off-ball offense. However, his current defense looks bad in the NBA. In international competitions In the middle of relying on a strong body can still be just a wave.

"Lebang, you participated in the Olympics again this year. Brother Blacksmith, you are actually on the dream team again. Are you two here specifically to drag your country back? There are also James, Carmelo, Russell, Zack, Paul, Clay, Hassan, many of my teammates... and Kevin... Carey... hi..." Liu Ren greeted James and the others, made a joke, and saw sitting at another table Several embarrassing characters, Durant and Irving, sat with Cousins, who was not sociable.

Durant and Irving seem to have an awkward relationship now, so they said hello to Liu Ren and they didn’t speak, especially Irving, who ignored Liu Ren, let alone Cousins. An expression that others owe him money.

People in an alliance are all superstars. These few people are familiar and are more enthusiastic about Liu Ren, including Westbrook, the guy who has always wanted Liu Rengan.

Speaking of not seeing Thompson for more than a month, it feels a bit weird. Liu Ren and Thompson used to be "mortal enemies" when they met. Now they are teammates and they are going to fight for three consecutive championships together.

"Hey boss, I haven't seen each other for more than a month after the finals, but Kobe, Hassan and Klay are also here this time. We can go for a drink in the evening." James and Kobe often exposed both of them in the previous two Olympic Games. Some pictures of a good relationship, in fact the relationship between the two has always been good.

And James and Liu Ren...Although they played against each other in the two-year finals, they were called "enemies" by the media, but apart from the grievances between the two finals, there was no contradiction between the two.

I don’t see too much. Contradictions can’t even arise without a certain beginning. Contradictions usually happen to people who meet frequently and cooperate frequently.

"It's been a long time since I saw Hassan, Kobe, and Clay, but our team rules can't drink. Our coach is Yannakis. The old man is very old-fashioned. If you know I drink, my God." and James When Kobe and they were together, Liu Ren would drink some cocktails and alcoholic beverages, but they would not dare to drink indiscriminately when they arrived at the Olympics.

Even though Yannakis has been mad at the Chinese men’s basketball team for two years, people are also questioning his coaching level. His status in the international arena is very high. The purpose of his current coaching in China is to prove that he still has that ability. , Proved that the poor performance in 13 years and 14 years was due to the problems of the China National Basketball Association and had nothing to do with his coaching ability.

"The Greek coach? God, do you know the boss? The first time I played in an international game, he took Greece to kill. It is said that it was an old stubbornness. You can bear it." James remembered that he had failed in the first two Olympics. And the return thing, "But now we are not afraid of Yannakis, we have thoroughly studied his tactics."

James seems to have some research on Yannakis, but what he doesn't know is that Yannakis coached the previous Chinese men's basketball team two years ago. After two years of painful experience, he has smoothed the edges and corners and became more smooth. , The change of personality gave Yannakis a new breakthrough in his tactical concept.

Several people talked for a long time at the entrance of the cafeteria, and more and more people noticed them. Their thirteen NBA superstars are a group of billionaires, and they are so muscular. Many female athletes want to get on their boats. , Have a relationship with them.

"Haha, let's get some food first. After talking for a long time, we were hungry." James saw that there were more and more people watching, and he took a few people in to eat.

The food in the cafeteria is buffet style, which makes Liu Ren a bit regretful. He doesn't have any Chinese food he likes to eat. After all, Chinese food is mostly high-fat and high-oil food or even fried food. It is delicious, but it is nothing to athletes. benefit.

Liu Ren took some vegetables, four fried eggs, a piece of bread, and a glass of milk. He was hungry and not too picky. In fact, he really wanted to eat pancakes or stuffed buns and dumplings, but It is obviously impossible to provide it here.

Most of the other people eat hot dogs, ham, etc. James eats beef early in the morning. Liu Ren said that this guy is a muscular maniac. He seems to see that his power forward and center are just out of his opponents and he is getting older. , It's going to start tonnage flow again.

Liu Ren doesn’t know whether James is sad or enviable. He said that his teammates are not good. He has two superstar partners after 0 years, but his partner’s insiders were all inside monsters before he partnered with him. After partnering, he became a three-pointer.

For example, Bosh averaged 24+10 per game before going to the Heat, which is considered the top three insiders in the league, but he went to the Heat and averaged 16+6 in nine games.

Love even averaged 26+14 points per game before going to the Cavaliers, and 16 points per game after going to the Cavaliers...

Not to mention the reduction in scoring, the key is that the rebounds are not available, and the opponents can't be defended. Especially after Love's second year of weight reduction to play a flexible power forward, the rebounds are simply terrible. He averaged a few free throws at 8 points per game, and now it’s a few at 4, which is directly reduced. The internal lethality is basically gone, so that James has to start eating beef for a living...

I haven't played a game for too long. Although I have touched basketball in the past month, I haven't really played a game. This time I saw James and the others, and the tension of the game is finally coming.

The most annoying thing about NBA stars is that there are a large crowd of people watching when they eat, and there are more and more people, after eating breakfast, I quickly left here.

"Blame the old coach K. If we are still staying outside this year in a hotel, we will be watched again." Among these people, it is Anthony who dares to complain about James like this.

"This is Brazil. Maybe eight of the ten people on the street are drug dealers, and the remaining two are poisonous ghosts. The law and order here in Brazil is not as good as London and Beijing. Well, if it were not here, we would not have met the boss. By the way, the building where you live, boss?" James said helplessly. It is trouble for Anthony to live in the big city of New York. Look at Liu Ren, the Olympic Village where he lives. No one complained.

"I live in Building 104, how about you?" Liu Ren replied.

"It's a coincidence. We live in Building 102, right next to you." Harden said suddenly.

Harden doesn’t play, he is a real treasure when he is off the court, otherwise he won’t get involved with Howard, but he is more serious than Howard when he’s on the court, and he won’t be joking. This is how Howard is still this season. If you want to be happy, and be happy on the court, the conflict between the two will be extremely intensified.

Howard is no longer a player who has one person to deal with the opponent's inside strength, but he still wants to play singles, feels that he can do it, and even laughs if he can't make it, Harden said he couldn't stand it.

At the beginning of the offseason, Howard also jumped out of the fourth-year contract, but the Rockets did not offer a contract.

However, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and Howard doesn’t have to worry about finding a job, and it will definitely be the maximum salary. This year, Chandler Parsons can get the same contract as Antetokounmpo~ www.readwn.com~ Not to mention Howard.

But Harden is a real treasure off the court.

"Oh, it hurts, Russell, why are you hitting me on the head." Harden was really the youngest of the three youngsters and was bullied to death by Westbrook.

Liu Ren looked at Ji's passionate tortoise and porcelain with weird eyes.

But what makes people embarrassed is that the boss of the Three Young Masters is now leaving quietly, but no one talks to him.

Curry did not participate in the Olympics this year. Klay Thompson is not Durant’s teammate. He has left the Warriors. And because the Warriors couldn’t wait to get McCollum, he sent him away before the season was over. Those who resent the Warriors naturally won't give Durant a good face.

In Thompson’s view, the Warriors sent him away and they could clear the cap space to sign Durant. Without the cap space of about 10 million or so freed by him, the Warriors would not be able to get Durant immediately. Yes, you have to find a way to get rid of a big team contract such as Bogut’s ten million contract. Then maybe Durant will go to the Lakers. At that time, Liu Ren and others had not renewed the contract, and Kobe dropped again. With a salary of more than ten million, he can directly sign Durant.

"... We are athletes in a sports event. We live next to each other. Didn't we meet Nash yesterday? The Canadian team lives in Building 105." Westbrook slapped this former little brother on the head, too. It was embarrassing, especially after Liu Ren made such a reaction, he felt even more embarrassed.

After chatting and chatting, I went downstairs. The two buildings happened to be back to back. Due to the Chinese team’s team rules, Liu Ren was unable to participate in the American team’s entertainment activities. It was a pity that I had lost it, but it’s nothing. There is a chance to make another appointment after the game, and one-third of the US team are Lakers players, there is no such thing, what a big deal.
