Healing Basketball

Chapter 770: Enviable Eastern duo

  Chapter 770 Chapter 770. The enviable Eastern duo

  Liu Xiu feels that because of the improvement of the strength of his teammates, the ideological changes brought to the whole team have brought at least a 10% improvement in the strength of the team.

   This is too important. He could feel it in 2004. When his teammates met a top team, the first thought was not how to win, but how to lose less.

   Now he can understand why his teammates think so. The inferiority complex brought about by years of weakness is not only in basketball, but also in this era of Chinese people. At this time, the "foreign moon is round" is the mainstream thinking.

  Not only that, there are also some who went to foreign countries and found that the moon is not so round.

  In this World Championships, the teammates are more confident because of him, because of Yao Ming, and because of Wang Zhizhi, and the three of them also feel more confident because of the progress of their teammates.

  Liu Xiu has an ambition—to be the one who drives the Chinese people to rebuild their world-class self-confidence!

  He knew that the Chinese people would build confidence in the future, but it will be ten years, more than ten years later. If it can be earlier, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation may come earlier...

  As soon as this idea came up, he felt his heart surging.

  Although he himself felt that this was impossible, it was impossible for one person to do it.

  But he really wants to try, even if he can't be the one who leads, becomes an introduction, a spark, it's not in vain to step into the basketball court he loves.

  Since sports is a war in a peaceful age, let’s fight for our dreams!

  …

  The next day, on the morning of September 4th, the World Blue Federation held a press conference to announce the awards of this World Championship.

  Originally, the normal process is to award awards after the final, but isn’t there a bronze medal match after the final...

   Stats kings don’t have trophies like the NBA, but FIBA’s official website has records, and their names were read when the awards were announced.

  For the Chinese team, Yao Ming won the scoring title and Liu Xiu won the assists title.

   There are awards with trophies, the best team and MVP.

   Liu Xiu and Yao Ming, as data kings and champions, were selected to the best team point guard and center without any surprise.

  Argentina's Manu Ginobili was selected as shooting guard, USA's Carmelo Anthony as small forward, and Spain's Pau Gasol as power forward.

  The MVP of this World Championships, Liu Xiu successfully won, and the symbolic game that FIBA ​​chose Liu Xiu to win was the game where 41 points and 9 assists led the Chinese team to defeat the Dream Seven team in a single game.

  Although it was expected, when the FIBA ​​President announced that Liu Xiu won the MVP, Yao Ming still had negative emotions—he thought of Liu Xiu's lack of showing off the MVP honor cabinet with another trophy.

  As for the fact that Liu Xiu won the award, Yao Ming really didn't think there was anything wrong.

   Whenever the critical moment came, it was Liu Xiu who stood up to solve the problem.

  After the award was announced, the Chinese team stayed in Japan for two days. After coming for so long, the players didn't have a good time. Even the members of the Basketball Association felt embarrassed.

  Now that the political achievements have been achieved, let the team members have fun.

  Officials can also have a deep understanding of the local culture. Compared with the players, their way is obviously more wild...

   On September 6th, the Chinese team set off to return to the imperial capital and returned triumphantly!

  Press conference, accepting awards, celebration banquet, participating in the recording of a special program on the imperial TV station... I have been busy for several days. Although I feel quite tired this time, Liu Xiu is quite happy.

  Isn’t that what it takes to win the world championship?

   On the 12th of the journey, Yao Ming had a birthday. It happened to be a live broadcast of the imperial court at that time. Everyone prepared gifts, which showed a wave of unity and friendship within the team...

During this period, the saying that "the golden age of Chinese men's basketball team has begun" spread like wildfire. Liu Xiuneng can intuitively feel from domestic news programs, major sports portal websites, forum posts, etc. that winning the World Championships this time is truly It set off a wave of sports in China!

  At first he thought it would be a basketball craze, but to his surprise, the craze was all-round.

   It took him a few days to realize that their victory in the World Championships was just an introduction to the "National Sports Craze".

  But the men's basketball team won the world championship, which accelerated the coming of this wave!

  …

Time flies to September 18th. After participating in various chores of the national team, and then adding two sneaker promotions in the Imperial Capital and Shanghai Magic City, Liu Xiu bid farewell to his parents, boarded the "Rose Bay Prison" and flew to portland.

  Liu Xiu doesn't want to work overtime, but there's no other way, the publicity fee is too much...

  There is also a new sneaker coming out - the special nightmarish version of the warden series sneakers.

  How could AJ miss the dream team being hammered? This heat must be rubbed off.

   It takes at least two years of experience.

  After returning to Portland to rest for two days, Liu Xiu adjusted her mentality, entered the new season state, and began to seize the time to finish the two sets of physical strengthening training that had not yet been completed.

   In the past two days since he came back, he is also concerned about things that he has no time to care about since the World Championships started.

  After Garnett joined the Bulls, the Bulls became the favorites to win the championship, and the popularity of powerful stars and veterans directly jumped to the first place.

  Liu Xiu thought that before they won the championship, there were not many veterans and powerful stars who were willing to talk to them. After winning the championship, the veterans felt that they had already won the championship, let alone coming here. Now they have won two consecutive championships...

Watching the Bulls use $1.8 million in one year to poach the 28-year-old role player power forward Malik Allen from the Heat. He averaged 4.3 points and 3.3 rebounds per game last season. Very good.

There is still 1.48 million in one year, and the Mavericks have dug up Adrian Griffin as a swingman substitute. This is a bit older, 32 years old, but last season he averaged 4.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1 steal per game. He has excellent defense. Strength is online.

   These two are the main substitutes of the once favorite team!

  The Bulls are so sloppy that they can directly steal people from other championship teams!

  In addition to these two, Du Hong, who originally planned to leave, also accepted the starting salary of $3 million split from the Bulls, and completed a contract extension with the Bulls at a low price of $6.24 million for two years.

  Liu Xiu could only hold on to Little Flying Squirrel and Rahim, who had received a salary cut and renewed their contracts, and looked at the free market pitifully.

   The most popular team after the Bulls is the Pistons.

  Yao Ming didn't win the MVP and was MMP in his heart, but he didn't know how happy he was when he returned to Detroit.

   The Spurs were also robbed!

  For the championship, Nazr Mohammad accepted the invitation of the Pistons, signed a 5-year 32 million dollar full middle class, and abandoned Duncan to play Yao Ming as a substitute!
