Men's Basketball Training Center.
"Not playing in the first half? Why? Did you feel uncomfortable? Would you like to call a team doctor? No, if you are unwell, I must report to the Youth League!" Coach Liu said with concern.
Zhang Guan proposed to the coaching staff that only half of the game will be played. Head coach Yunas and the other two assistant coaches have not yet expressed their position, but the other assistant coach Liu is anxious first. He really cares about Zhang Guan's body.
Coach Liu is different from the other two assistant coaches. The other two assistant coaches are all coaches of the cba team. They were recruited to the national team as assistant coaches, but coach Liu is an official of the basketball association. He serves as an assistant coach, mainly representing The basketball association official, after all, in the national team, there must be a basketball association staring at it. This Liu coach does not usually participate in the team's training, but such as receiving media, liaising with superiors, and logistics support, etc., are all done by this Liu coach.
For this reason, coach Liu is the most concerned person in the entire men’s basketball coaching team. If there is a problem with Zhang Guan, several other coaches can pat on the and leave, but coach Liu, as a serious official, is Responsible.
"I have no physical problems, that is, continuous games, I do have some fatigue, and need more time to adjust." Zhang Guan thought for a while, and then said: "And I think playing the US team, it is enough to play seriously in the second half. Well, it doesn’t make much sense to lead or lag in the first half of the game. On the contrary, it is to play hard for the second half, maybe there will be a miracle."
"The same is true of playing against the US team. The score doesn't really make much sense." Coach Guo replied from the side, but he didn't care what Zhang Guan said about the "miracle".
"Are you sure that your body is not uncomfortable?" Coach Liu confirmed again.
"No." Zhang Guan nodded seriously.
Coach Liu was still a little hesitant, and the next coach Guo said a few words in the ear of coach Yunas. Then coach Yunas nodded and said, "Zhang Guan has played a lot of games these days, and it is indeed It’s hard enough, if there is no unexpected situation, let you take a break in the first half, no problem."
"Then thank the coach." Zhang Guan said.
After Zhang Guan left, Coach Liu sighed: "Coach, why did you promise him? If he is really a physical problem, we can't explain it to the Youth League!"
"You don't worry, it's definitely not a physical problem." Coach Guo said, "The track and field team's protection for Zhang Guan is much stronger than ours. You see, all the drinking water specially provided for Zhang Guan has arrived. We also followed the light."
Coach Guo shook the metal bottle in his hand, and then said: "Zhang Guan did not get the ninth gold medal in the relay race yesterday. Maybe he will be very disappointed now! This seems to be the first time Zhang Guan has not won the gold medal. The psychological discomfort is certain. After all, he is only 22 years old and he is still a young man. We have to give him more time."
"It turns out so!" Coach Liu nodded.
Coach Guo then said: "This time the opponent is the United States team. The victory or defeat is not very important to us. The key is to play our men's basketball style. Isn't the spirit of Tian Xie's instruction the same? So Since Zhang Guan wants to take a break in the first half, I think let him take a break!"
Coach Liu nodded again. The spirit of Tian Xie's instructions on the men's basketball final was still conveyed by him. The senior team of the Basketball Association also knows that this game, the national team can not win, so they did not require the men’s basketball team to win, but only asked to play the style of the Chinese men’s basketball team, to play a wonderful game, and give the Chinese an explanation. .
Another requirement is to strive for every player of the team to have a chance to play. After all, it is the Olympic final. For these players, there is such a chance in their lifetime that they can play for a few minutes in the final, even if they don’t touch the ball. Running back and forth can be regarded as playing in the finals of the Olympic Games, and there will be no regrets for the players. From this point of view, the management of the Basketball Association is also very user-friendly.
...
Today is the last day of the Olympic Games, and for the entire American delegation, they have only two competitions to participate in, one is the final of men’s water polo and the other is the final of men’s basketball. Comparing the two, the finals of water polo will naturally be ignored by people. An event that is only seen in the Olympics and an event where many NBA stars gather, people will naturally pay attention to the latter.
Wukesong Stadium, today's security level has reached the highest level, because there will be heavyweights to watch the game on the spot.
The head of the US delegation personally attended the Sino-US war, and also came the honorary head of the US team, the former US President Mr. Lao Bu.
A retired president has not reached the highest level of security in Wukesong Stadium, but the son of the retired president also came to the scene to watch the game, and his son is the current president of the United States: President Xiao Bu. Because of this, Wukesong's security level was raised to the highest level.
On the last day of the Olympics, the closing ceremony will be held. Heads of state and politicians from all over the world will come here to participate in the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games. President Xiao Bu also came to participate in the closing ceremony. According to President Xiao Bu's original itinerary, he did not watch the basketball final. However, since he decided to play against the two sides, President Xiao Bu also changed his itinerary to watch this Sino-US war. From a certain perspective, watching the game between your country and the host team is also a diplomatic etiquette.
The other party has a president. In accordance with established practice, we can not send someone to accompany the guests and let the guests enjoy the treatment of the most distinguished guests. If we want to send someone to accompany us, we must send someone with basically the same status.
Before the first China-U.S. game in the men's basketball group stage, President Xiao Bu also personally attended the game to watch the game. At that time, he did not send senior personnel to accompany him, let President Xiao Bu have a good time, but today is different. Today is In the men’s basketball finals, the importance of the game and the group stage finals cannot be the same. Everyone in the United States has a job. It is certainly inappropriate for the host not to send people. Therefore, a comrade at the corresponding level was sent to accompany President Xiao Bu to watch the game. , Can also be regarded as a thoughtful host to the guests.
...
"Boys, let me tell you the good news. Our President will be here to watch your game in person! So you have to perform well today!" American team leader Colono said excitedly.
However, the following players did not react too intensely or too excitedly. Colangelo smiled awkwardly, and the players reacted in this way, but he was not surprised.
The current President Xiao Bu is not very flattering in the United States. He only has more than 30% support rate. This is definitely a very low data. Under normal circumstances, the support rate of the President is about 50%. In his last term, the former president, who was a little scandalous but good at economics, had an average approval rating of 66%.
