The King of the NBA

Towards the end of August, the opening of the Spanish Basketball World Cup is imminent, and the Chinese men's basketball team is also preparing to go to Spain.

　　 On the 27th, an airplane took off at the Beijing International Airport. On the plane were the Chinese men's basketball players, as well as the coaching staff, team doctors, and staff.

　　 On the plane, everyone is chatting.

　　 "Quiet."

　　Gong Luming suddenly got up, everyone calmed down and looked at Gong Luming together.

Gong Luming solemnly said: "This Spanish Basketball World Cup is the first game after the restructuring of the World Championships. It is of extraordinary significance. For this game, domestic fans are also very concerned. Since we have participated, we cannot let Fans are disappointed and cannot lose face to our motherland."

　　 Everyone was serious.

　　 "This basketball World Cup, I set a goal for our team." Gong Luming said: "This time, we must enter the top eight."

　　 As soon as the voice fell, everyone became noisy.

　　 "Enter the top eight?"

　　 "We last entered the top eight, or the 1984 World Championships in Canada?"

"According to the rules of the competition system, a total of 24 teams will be divided into four groups of ABCD. Each group of 6 teams will play a group round-robin game. The first four points of each group will qualify for the next round. Only to enter the quarterfinals, but also to go through the discussion knockout, and win to enter the quarterfinals."

　　 "This... would it be a little too difficult?"

"Yes."

　　 "Coach, are you really kidding?"

　　 Everyone smiled bitterly, but he was not sure.

　　 This is not to blame everyone, the Chinese men's basketball team is the overlord in Asia, but not in the world basketball.

In the past few decades, the Chinese men’s basketball team participated in the Olympics and the World Championships. The best result is the eighth place. The number of the eighth place in the Olympics is more. There are 3 times. They are the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 and Greece in 2004. The Olympic Games, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The World Championships won the eighth place only once, or the World Championships in Canada thirty years ago.

　　 Gong Luming opened the crowd and made the top eight, which really scared the crowd.

Gong Luming was actually prepared for the reaction of the crowd, but he still couldn't help frowning. His eyes swept around the crowd and finally fell on Ning Yi, saying, "Ning Yi, what do you have to say ?"

　　 "Coach." Ning Yi said: "I'm fine, isn't it the top eight."

　　Everyone is staring. Are you kidding? Is it so easy to enter the top eight?

Gong Luming nodded comfortably, just wanting to speak, Yi Jianlian suddenly said, "Ning Yi is right, isn't it the top eight? Maybe we couldn't do it in the first two years, but it doesn't mean we can't do it now. Don’t forget, in the past warm-up match, we easily swept the Australian team and defeated the Philippines. In the past month, I have seen the progress and improvement of my teammates. We have become stronger than before. Many, plus Ning Yi, why can't they hit the top eight?"

　　 Everyone's heart shook.

Yi Jianlian said it makes sense. They couldn’t do it before, but it doesn’t mean they can’t do it now. Ning Yi joined this national team. His arrival brought a lot of changes to the national team. Everyone can feel it. The transformation of the team.

　　 Although the Australian second team can win before, but it will not be so easy. The Philippine team used to win, but it is by no means completely crushed as it is now.

　　 This is change, this is improvement.

"Everyone." Gong Luming said: "I think each of you can feel that we have improved and improved, and our strength has become stronger. So why can't we set our goals higher? We are going to participate The game is not for travel. If you can’t even make it out of the group, you can’t even enter the top eight, so what are we going to do?"

　　Yeah, if you can’t even make it out of the group, you can’t even enter the top eight, what are we going to do? Isn't it just to make a few counts, should it be a tourist?

　　Even if they don't care, but China has thousands of fans, what do they think?

"From the moment you enter the national team and wear the national team jersey, you are not just representing yourself, you are representing our country." Gong Luming raised his tone, "Knowing that in the eyes of others, our Chinese men's basketball team What is it? Weak chicken, since Dayao retired, in the eyes of others, we have become weak chicken. Do you want to be weak chicken, want to be looked down upon? No, I believe you are not willing to do this, I do not Yes. Before, we were not strong enough, but now we are enough. At least, we are qualified to hit the top eight."

　　 Everyone's heart was tumbling, and their thoughts were all over their heads. They only felt that there was blood in their chests. Guo Ailun first roared: "Isn't it the top eight? Fight."

"Fight."

　　 "Yes, desperately want to enter the top eight."

　　 everyone shouted.

　　 Gong Luming nodded, relieved, and the morale was up.

　　After more than ten hours of flight, the Chinese men's basketball team arrived in Spain and checked into the hotel.

　　 At the same time, some other teams also arrived in Spain, including the US team, the French team, Lithuania, Australia, Greece, Serbia, etc...

　　These teams have arrived~www.readwn.com~ Reporters from various countries have also flocked here.

　　Duan Xiaoran, as a front-line reporter dispatched, also came to Spain to follow up the interview with the Western Basketball World Cup. Of course, the main interviewee is the China Men's Basketball Team.

It was not a staff member with Duan Xiaoran, but a woman in her twenties, wearing wide sunglasses, covering most of her face, only showing her clean chin, tall and tall, with a height of 1.7 meters. , Dressed casually, but could not hide her good figure.

　　 "Bing Bing, take off your sunglasses, this is Spain." Duan Xiaoran said.

　　 The woman thought for a moment, and took off her sunglasses, her pretty face was revealed, her facial features were exquisite, her skin was smooth, and she had a cool temperament, as if she would not eat the fireworks of the world.

If someone who is familiar with the Chinese entertainment industry is there, she will definitely recognize it. This woman is the popular actress Qin Xuanbing. At just 24 years old, she is already a popular domestic actress in China. She has made albums, made movies, and acted on TV. , Still a model, owns a modeling company.

　　 The most important point is that despite the popularity, Qin Xuanbing is very low-key and has almost no scandals, which is very different from many other actresses.

　　Duan Xiaoran and Qin Xuanbing, one is a sports reporter, the other is a popular actress, seemingly out of touch, but no one knows that they are high school classmates, college classmates, the relationship has been very good, is a girlfriend.

　　 This time Duan Xiaoran came to Spain and learned that Qin Xuanbing was going to take a vacation. Duan Xiaoran brought her here, as the name suggests, and it was time to travel.
