Early in the morning, Liu Lang arrived at a gymnasium outside Los Angeles because a basketball game was being played here today between the Chinese team and the United States.

The stadium was full of people, the tickets were basically sold out, basketball is a big sport in the United States, although it is not as good as football, but today is the game of the United States national team, of course, it has attracted the attention of many people.

Liu Lang, Sun Hu and Mo Lan found their seats in the front row and sat down, because this is a first-class seating area, and each ticket price is $100, so it is still very empty compared to other areas.

Liu Lang was an avid basketball enthusiast in his previous life, he played the ball well, and when he was in college, he was still the main guard of the department.

When there were still ten minutes before the game, several people came in front of Liu Lang, one of whom was Wang Chong, the head of the delegation of the Chinese Olympic Committee and the head of the National Sports Commission.

"Liu Lang, you're here to watch the game too?"

"Grandpa Wang, you're here too!"

"Not only am I here, but you see, your grandfather Samaranch is also here!"

Behind Wang Chong is the chairman of the Olympic Organizing Committee, Samaranch, who said that the other party personally awarded the medal when Liu Lang won three championships.

"Little one, let's meet again!"

Samaranch was very friendly to Liu Lang, leaning down and touching the little guy's head.

"What, you like basketball too?"

Samaranch asked.

"Today is our national team's game, I'm here to cheer them up!"

Liu Lang said.

"Good, good!"

Samaranch nodded.

There was also a person behind Samaranch, who was not tall, forty-three or fourteen years old, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a very shrewd appearance, he was slightly stunned when he saw Samaranch and Wang Chong actually greeting a child, and then nodded at this child.

"Who is this person?"

Liu Lang immediately recognized the pair, it turned out to be NBA President Stern.

Hehe, just watching a game, the president of the Olympic Committee and the pope of the NBA league also followed, so there is no need to be so "exciting".

In the basketball world in the United States, it is not an exaggeration to call Stern "Pope", in the previous life, the reason why the NBA can become a basketball event that the world pays attention to has a huge relationship with Stern's vigorous promotion and reform.

Liu Lang knows the history of the NBA very well, in this era, although there are superstars such as "Magic" and "Big Bird Bird" in the league, but because of lax management, there are various problems in the league, many players are troublemakers, even if they are good at football, but there are more negative news, such as the story of Zhang Dashuai and 20,000 women is simply a household name, so the outside world has a very bad impression of them, coupled with internal chaos, the NBA league even once reached the verge of bankruptcy.

After Stern became the president of the alliance, his ability was immediately manifested, formulating various management matters internally, publicizing positive energy externally, and bringing a bankrupt alliance to a high-speed development track in just a few years.

And the relationship between this Stern and China has become a good story.

Liu Lang once read in a book, Stern from eighty-four years to become the president of the league began to fancy the incomparable huge market behind China, for many years has been running for the Chinese market, but at that time the country was only reform and opening up, TV sets are very few people can afford to buy, the national television station also has only two channels of programs, who will pay attention to what basketball games, until the early nineties, Stern took some games of the video to provide to the national television station for free, which allowed some domestic sports lovers to come into contact with the sport, the 92 Olympic Games Dream Team was born, so that the world saw what is the real basketballSince then, the influence of the NBA has spread rapidly around the world.

Liu Lang sat in the seat, Stern walked in front, accompanied by the two "leaders" to talk and laugh, the future basketball pope is still just a fledgling manager at this time, and now the first problem is how to bring the NBA on the right track, but even at this time, he has begun to play the idea of China, he is a business wizard by nature.

Soon, the Chinese and American players entered the stadium, and the audience burst into warm applause.

Liu Lang doesn't know any of the players of this Chinese national team, but he knows two members of the American national team, one is naturally Jordan, the future basketball god wearing the No. 9 jersey, and the other is wearing the No. 6 jersey, black and tall, and the player Liu Lang with facial features that looks like a gorilla is also very familiar, and he is the star of the traditional powerhouse New York Knicks in the nineties.

In the 84 Olympic Games, the Olympic Organizing Committee did not allow American professional basketball players to participate in the Olympic Games, so this year's American pair are all college players, of course, Jordan has actually become a member of the Chicago Bulls through the draft at this time, just to participate in the Olympics, the two sides did not formally sign an agreement, de jure is still a college player.

A whistle sounded, the two sides jumped the ball, the Chinese center just jumped up, the ball was pushed aside by the opponent's "big black man", Jordan wearing the No. 9 jersey moved to catch the basketball, at the same time a Chinese player also pounced to stop the other party, but Jordan bent down to accelerate, like an arrow off the string in front of the defender.

Liu Lang saw it clearly, and the players of the Chinese team who wanted to defend Jordan were stunned for a moment, as if they couldn't believe that the opponent's speed could be so fast, and when he turned around, Jordan was already four meters away.

After only five steps, Jordan had already gone from half court to the opponent's basket, and then soared into the air like a roc and smashed the basketball into the basket with a long tongue!

"I'm Cao!"

Liu Lang clearly heard Wang Chong's unconscious exclamation, obviously this ball "scared" him.

"This black player is jumping so high!"

Wang Chong said to Samaranch beside him, and the translator in front of him also began to translate in unison.

Samaranch's eyes also lit up, this dunk is really pleasing to the eye, and it makes people feel the charm of basketball.

"This player's name is Jordan, and he's a college player!"

Stern explained.

"This college student is so powerful?"

Wang Chong and Samaranch were incredible.

It's not that this college player is powerful, but this group of college players are amazing, the two sides are not at the same level at all, maybe the Chinese team is not inferior to the other party in terms of tactical cooperation, but the physical aspect is too bad, the defensive position has been established, the opponent only needs an acceleration to clean up the defenders, and the two players can't catch up with the front and back.

Jordan is even more unstoppable on the court, the ball under the basket is a buckle, and the center is turned on his back, and the Chinese team basically can't score under the basket, even if he can shoot, someone in the sky has long been waiting, and then a slap to the fan, especially Ewing, who grows up like an orangutan, and his strength is amazing, and the opponent is a stumble when he arches his buttocks, and the Chinese team can only score in the middle distance position.

With only five minutes into the game, the score was 25-10 and it was garbage time.

"This ...... Is this called basketball?"

Wang Chong was dumbfounded, there have been some basketball events in Asia in recent years, this national team is an absolute top team, that is, there are a few teams in East Asia and West Asia that can compete with the Chinese team, and the rest of the teams are basically scum, now it's good, their team has become scum, the other party is just a group of college students, change to adults, then it can't go to heaven!
