Chapter 569: with all due respect

CCTV News specially reported on the Universiade.
"The 21st World University Games with the purpose of "Youth, Friendship and Peace" came to an end in Beijing today.
Athletes from all over the world participate in 168 small events in 12 major events, including track and field, gymnastics, table tennis, swimming, diving, water polo, tennis, judo, basketball, fencing, volleyball, and football.
The Chinese sports delegation sent a total of 256 athletes to participate in all 12 events.
We finally topped the list with 55 gold medals.
This is the first time that our Chinese delegation has achieved the highest number of gold medals in the Universiade.
The United States and Russia ranked second and third on the medal list with 21 gold medals and 14 gold medals.
Among them, the Chinese college male main basketball team performed very well. In the semifinals and finals, we even defeated the U.S. and Yugoslavia college students. For the first time, our men’s basketball team reached the highest podium in the world..."
Yes, this is the first time that the Chinese men's basketball team has won the highest podium in the World Series.
Among them, what everyone talks about most is: the Chinese men's basketball team beat the US men's basketball team.
Although there has been a previous World Championship where the Chinese team won the US team, such news is really "popular" in China. It is really not too much, the more the better.
This has greatly promoted our domestic basketball atmosphere.
Neighboring South Korea also reported on the Universiade and highlighted the men's basketball game.
"In this competition, the Chinese team sent a lot of main national teams. Among them is the main center Yao Liang. Yao Liang is this year's NBA champion and the FMVP on the face of the CBA. He is like a fish in water on the field of college students. In the Chinese team, there is Zhu Fangyu, who is the No. 24 show this year. He is the main small forward of the Guangdong team in the CBA League. There are also Liu Wei, Wang Shipeng, Xue Yuyang and others, all of whom are players from professional teams. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Chinese men's basketball team can win the American college team."
Japanese media is more objective.
"The average age of the Chinese team's players is only 1.3 years younger than the 21.6 years old of the American men's basketball team. Young Chinese players have threatened the dominance of young American players. What about our young players? Except for our Takeuchi brothers, Who else do we have? Our basketball reforms for so many years are still not enough, maybe we need to find another way!"
The United States on the other side of the Pacific also has its own views on this matter.
"We lost to the Chinese team again! What happened to our young people?"
"The new champion, China Yao, proved himself in the college competition! Well, proved himself better than a group of college students."
"The Universiade is just a trick of using fakes and adults to bully children. If we also send professional players, there will be no suspense in the game."
"To help the team win the championship, the Chinese giants are rarely faced with rivals on the court."
Among them, Big Mouth Barkley also joined in.
"Chinese yao showed great power at the Universiade, but, I'm sorry, you are still not a suitable candidate for the top pick. Although you have a height of 226, but, IMHO, the NBA rhythm is not suitable for you at all. You may I won’t agree with what I said, but it’s okay. You can prove yourself in the game, I’m waiting for you.

Barkley had a quarrel with Iverson before, and then nothing happened, but Barkley's big mouth has also begun to become famous.
In the draft, Barkley's words became true, and it made him appear in the American media.
However, Barkley is not optimistic about Yao Liang at all. Taking advantage of the Universiade, he certainly wanted to reverse his image quickly. It would be bad if everyone mistakenly thought that they were optimistic about the Chinese. He will be in the position of commentator for a long, long time.
I don't know who is contributing to the flames. Soon, the American basketball circle raised a wave of public opinion, discussing the public opinion of the new division champion Yao Liang.
Finally, this public opinion also evolved into several topics.
"How many points can Yao Liang score in his NBA debut?"
"Can Yao Liang average double figures in his rookie season?"
"Can Yao Liang lead the Wizards out of trouble?"
The answers to these questions have also become popular interview topics on TV stations such as TNT.
This guy Barkley also continued to join in the fun.
"Yao should score in his first show, um, get 4 points. After all, I just came here and didn’t know anything about the strength of my league. It’s normal to score 4 points. As for averaging double figures per game, this may be for him. It’s more difficult. After all, it’s not a college games, hahahaha. The last question, let alone talk about it, right?"
There are really many people like Barkley. You say me, everyone is an expert, everyone comes out to say a sentence or two, and then the news is hot. As long as it is discussing Yao Liang, it is a piece of news that is not low in popularity.
A few days later, this topic faded slightly, and everyone was attracted by other news.
Kobe and Vanessa's wedding.
For the wedding of the two, the old Bryants and other relatives refused to attend the ceremony.
However, without his parents attending, Kobe's pomp is not small.
The best man group is all NBA superstars. Li Nan, Iverson, McGrady, Carter. The words are exceptional
The guests are also various big names, such as Michael Jordan, Phil Jackson, Shaquille O’Neal... from the music and film worlds.
The whole wedding was quite beautiful, happy and sweet.
However, at the end of the wedding, Li Nan was caught by the reporter and asked the previous three questions.
"How many points can Yao Liang score in his NBA debut?"
"Can Yao Liang average double figures in his rookie season?"
"Can Yao Liang lead the Wizards out of trouble?"
Li Nan smiled and replied without thinking:
"His debut will definitely surprise the whole world. It is a piece of cake for him to score in double figures per game. As for whether Yao can lead the Wizards out of trouble, my answer is: yes! I bet next season. They will definitely make the playoffs."
Li Nan answered with confidence ~EbookFREE.me~ but no one believed it.
The strength of Yao Liang is unknown to the general public except those professionals in the United States.
As for the CBA game Yao Liang slashed 40+20, the Americans do not recognize it.
I will not recognize you until you have played a beautiful game in front of my eyes.
They even more recognized Kwame Brown and Tyson Chandler. Eddie Curry, the three guys who grew up under the nose.
Foreigners like Yao Liang Gasol, sorry, you have to prove yourself again!
Barkley came out again when public opinion was overwhelming.
"Lead the Wizards out of the predicament? This, IMHO, he can't do it! The Wizards are now in a mess, even if you give them Michael Jordan, they can't get out."
Then, what is unexpected is that a month later, at the end of September, Michael Jordan held a press conference in Washington.
