Chapter 402(1/2)
: Go to the beautiful country to watch football
The spring breeze of April has already blown across the land of China. Except for some cities in the north and on the plateau, there are mostly lively scenes of green grass and blooming flowers.
Xie Zhenghe, who returned to the capital of Jiangnan Province from the imperial capital, had arranged his school work in advance.
As Lin Shaojie's "mentor", coupled with his previous experience in the industry, it is not surprising that he successfully served as the deputy leader of this "temporary" men's basketball world championship.
After Jiangnan University learned the news, it fully supported him. After all, he was a teacher from his own school, so he felt honored.
In this regular season game between the Pacers and the Spurs, Xie Zhenghe saw it more clearly than others. The person watching with him was the little giant.
The deputy leader of the Chinese national team in this World Championships is Xie Zhenghe, and the current leader is the little giant beside him.
As the leader of the men's basketball team at that time, the Little Giant moved from the front to behind the scenes. It is inevitable that he will continue to engage in this sport after retirement and take up an administrative position.
The voices coming from the TV screen at this time were all talking about the strength of the Pacers. Even if the Spurs were the loser, they were proud of their defeat.
Even in the post-match press interview, it was a "quiet and peaceful" scene.
Winners are restrained, humble, and neither arrogant nor impetuous;
The losing side is friendly, polite, neither humble nor overbearing.
You can't tell the intense atmosphere before the game and the impending storm.
"Thank you, Director, what do you think of Xiaolin's performance in this game?"
The little giant picked up a small glass of wine and handed it to Xie Zhenghe in front of him. The match made them both feel a little tipsy. The low-alcohol braised wine was mellow in the mouth and still had some staying power.
Xie Zhenghe took it and took a sip.
"According to my personal opinion, this game will at best bring out a 'long-distance running' version of Kobayashi. In terms of full form, I think it's still a bit short of that."
Xie Zhenghe put down his wine glass and was in full swing.
"I think Popovich still knows too little about Kobayashi. If he had given him more time, maybe Kobayashi would have gone to the Spurs and eventually teamed up with Leonard.
When I think about that situation, I estimate that the teams that are our opponents will probably be beaten below 80 points per game."
The little giant's eyes lit up when he heard this. When it comes to closeness and distance, of course Xie Zhenghe and Li Shaojie in front of him are closer. There are many things that he has only heard about but has never seen with his own eyes.
Xie Zhenghe was invited to join the team this time, not only because Xie Zhenghe's own tactical qualities belong to those in the industry and he will not give random orders, but more importantly because he is Lin Shaojie's mentor and knows Lin Shaojie far better than others.
This is like when the little giant brought the coach of the Magic Sharks into the national team. Of course, the guy was not qualified in the end and left in despair.
No matter from which aspect, there is no doubt that Xie Zhenghe will return to the "national" brand this time. Even the coach of the professional team cannot find fault, and no one will use Xie Zhenghe's identity as an issue.
If anyone can train a player of "Lin Shaojie" level, he can be a head coach in the domestic basketball world.
The guy who is at the top of his game in the American professional basketball team has praised his mentor Xie Zhenghe on the TV media more than once. This can be seen from the new members of the Jiangnan University basketball team.
Definitely the best batch of seedlings in the country.
But it is a pity that the better batch has long been picked up by the professional echelon and provincial teams. It is not easy to win over these good players from famous schools such as Imperial Capital and Shuimu.
In the past two years, with Lin Shaojie's popularity, CUBA, which was originally a niche, has become more popular, and even prestigious schools that don't pay much attention to this area have begun to exert their efforts.
With their reputation, if they want to recruit a group of outstanding players, they really have it at their fingertips. If Jiangnan University can grab good prospects under such circumstances, it is also TOEFL.
Because of this incident, Xie Zhenghe was called China's "Old K" coach by some nefarious media.
Of course, Xie Zhenghe is very self-aware. Whether it is in terms of professional experience or personal resume, he is far from Mike Krzyzewski. Apart from being a college basketball coach, there is no comparison between the two.
This time, we formed a team with Little Giant and led a team that was still in the pre-selection stage. It was entirely based on the personal situation of a certain No. 13. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to participate in the World Championships in Spain at such a high cost.
The little giant was sitting not far away, thinking deeply about Xie Zhenghe's previous words.
The current team has not yet formed, but it has been regarded by the media as the "Team Yao" formed after the Little Giant returned to China. The Little Giant is also shouldering the pressure and strongly recommends participating in this World Championship.
Those hundreds of millions of dollars are not in vain, there must be some results, and the key to the results lies in Lin Shaojie personally.
With him, there will be no problem with the 60-point passing mark; without him, with the dismal record in Asia now or last year, going to the World Championships is just looking for abuse.
Looking at the configuration of the participating teams, almost all of them have familiar faces and familiar names. Almost the leading stars of each team have played in the American professional basketball team.
If China lacks Lin Shaojie to carry the tripod, is it necessary for the little giant to take off his suit and stand on the field again?
But with Lin Shaojie, everything is different. Whoever comes on the field is still worried and his morale drops by three points first. Everyone is defeated by his subordinates. Lin Shaojie is famous for his big heart. The more critical the moment, the more stable he is.
But the results achieved in the past two years.
"I know Leonard as a player. He is one of the few black players who is unassuming and reserved, but his strength is not great. But look, such a player's strength is greater than his reputation, but under the control of our Xiaolin
, I wasn’t physically exhausted in the fourth quarter.”
Xie Zhenghe tapped the table, and then pointed at his eyes with his accustomed index and middle fingers.
"I can see clearly that the 53 points Xiaolin scored is not his upper limit. He has been very restrained. With his shooting percentage and physical fitness, I would not be surprised to score more points.
Leonard's talent is good, but I don't believe it. Even if Xiaolin plays with the ball and plays backwards, he still can't break the double team?"
When the little giant heard this, he immediately patted his thigh.
"Yes, I hardly saw Kobayashi backing up in this game. Most of them were open shots and relying on running to involve the opponent."
In the impression of the little giant, even the fledgling Lin Shaojie has an incredible fadeaway jump shot. However, in this game, Lin Shaojie still used one-step shooting to solve the battle.
His physical talents are also shown more in other scenes.
Now think back, if Lin Shaojie uses his back to widen the distance between Leonard and Leonard, and also ignores the opponent's block, plus Lin Shaojie's stable touch, the hit rate will definitely be impossible to say, double teaming in this move
Not useful in front of you.
"I think Kobayashi still has reservations. After all, this is just the regular season. If it were to be in the playoffs, the Spurs would not be able to play so anxiously with the Pacers. They would definitely be widened in an instant. Kobayashi is good at everything.
I just always have a phobia of not scoring enough, and I habitually need to beat my opponent by more than 20 points before I can feel at ease."
Xie Zhenghe's words made the little giant laugh.
In any case, he always felt relieved when he heard the news.
The current reserve team for the World Championships is dominated by members from the previous year's National Olympics. Among the old national team members, except for Kong Yi, whose position is relatively stable, the others are not yet sure. Even half of them are from Guangdong Province.
To become a "flowing soldier" in this "iron camp".
The capable are promoted, the mediocre are demoted, and the inferior are eliminated.
There is no other choice. This team is formed with Lin Shaojie as the core. Whoever can create sparks with him and cooperate closely with him is the best choice, just like the team in 2008.
The game is over, and the child is tired from playing, lying on the sofa and sleeping deeply.
Su Zhen watched from upstairs. Her father turned off the TV and took his father-in-law out for a walk.
My mother and my mother-in-law were preparing delicious food for dinner.
During these recent times, reporters from Zhuantai and Li Dacheng always come to disturb me from time to time, and the house is rarely busy.
For the Lin family, such ordinary and busy days always make people feel like they are still in China. After all, this is not a Chinese community. It always makes people feel comfortable to see familiar faces.
Su Zhen doesn't think it's a troublesome thing to be disturbed. Although the people at Zhuantai are guests, think about it, whoever can be sent out is not a human being and has a very hard resume.
It is said that we eat and drink at the Lin family, but not every day. At most, we come here every now and then to have a toothpaste. I still mainly focus on daily records, which can be regarded as a balance between work and life.
For Su Zhen, the life in front of her has never been more satisfying.
Compared with the once spacious but less popular home, this place has a lot more atmosphere of life.
Compared with dormitory life on campus, she, a woman who has not yet completely left campus and continues her studies in a foreign country, can always find her ideal life, and at the same time, there is less intrigue in the dormitory.
A new school and new classmates gave Su Zhen a different experience.
Looking out from the window on the second floor, the sunset fell on the grass in the courtyard, making the ground colorful. It won't be long before Lin Shaojie, who has finished his press conference, will come back.
Thinking that she could hold her child and stand at the door of her house, waiting for his familiar smell, broad arms, and warm chest, Su Zhen felt her body warm.
"Xiao Linzi of your family is so domineering. My wife almost loves him to death. Tell me, I'm finally single, and now I'm trying to compete with your man for a man. What the hell is this?"
Su Zhen picked up the vibrating phone, then looked at the message from Luo Jiali on WeChat, and burst out laughing.
The only roommate in the dormitory who is close to her has now found a boyfriend. The cute girl with a round face is cute and charming as long as she tidies up a little bit. Unfortunately, everything is fine. Even if she has a mouth, she doesn't know if her boyfriend will tolerate it.
Come on.
"It's useless to talk to me about this matter. Didn't you say that he plans to come here to watch the playoffs? I will help you solve the ticket matter. Now that the house is bigger, there is no shortage of place for you to live. Get it when the time comes.
Xiaojie and I will give you a look to see how he is doing?"
Luo Jiali on the other end of the phone made an "OK" gesture.
Time flies so fast, it feels like in the blink of an eye, life will enter the next stage.
Graduation, work, falling in love, getting married, having children.
Underneath a series of processes are the supporting substances.
She or he, who was originally raised among flowers, under a greenhouse, or in an ivory tower, will soon be at work.
"What? Are you chatting with your best friend and roommate again?"
Song Lingfei turned off the TV and walked over quickly with a satisfied expression, then pinched Luo Jiali's round face.
As Luo Jiali's boyfriend, they established their relationship during their internship.
Song Lingfei had always known that Luo Jiali had a very close roommate, but she transferred to a beautiful country in her junior year. However, the relationship between the two parties did not become estranged because of the geographical separation, but became closer and closer.
