In this way, on July 8, Tian Xilin and another staff member of the basketball management center accompanied Zheng Xiao to the men's basketball national training base in Hangzhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, it was less than ten days before the start of the Stankovic Cup.

"Welcome, welcome! Zheng Xiao, I can look forward to you. When Tian Xilin accompanied Zheng Xiao in front of other players, Yao Ming greeted him first and shook hands with Zheng Xiao warmly.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I was too busy before, so I'm too late, I'm sorry." Zheng Xiao smiled a little awkwardly.

Compared with Yao Ming, in basketball, he is just a pink newcomer.

Even Yao Ming, the biggest name in the national men's basketball team, has been training with the national team for a while, but he, a newcomer, is late, which is indeed a bit unusual.

"Understand, understand, you're just a cameo in basketball, you're a duck on the shelf. I'm very satisfied that you can come. Yao Ming said.

"Let me introduce you to your teammates." Yao Ming is very enthusiastic and a natural team leader.

Of course, others also have a lot of respect for him.

After all, he is the most successful Chinese player in the NBA, and he is still in full swing.

Whether the National Sports Commission set the goal of guaranteeing eight and fighting for six for the national men's basketball team can succeed, in the eyes of the leaders, the main thing to look at is Yao Ming's performance.

"This is Wang Zhizhi, I think you must be familiar with Zheng Xiao." The first one to introduce is Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi and Zheng Xiao are of course very familiar.

In fact, Wang Zhizhi can be said to be the iconic figure of the new generation of national men's basketball team, and he is also the core figure of the Bayi team's glory.

It's a pity that he is now 31 years old and has entered the stage of heroic twilight.

However, his threat is still very strong.

"Hello, hello! Wang Zhizhi, the name is like thunder! Zheng Xiao and Wang Zhizhi shook hands.

He is only 183CM, and he is more than 30 centimeters away from Wang Zhizhi, so you really have to look up to see it.

"Zheng Xiao, hello, hello! I've admired you for a long time, and today I finally met a real person, your songs are very good, I have bought every album of yours, including English albums, and the thunder mobile phone produced by your lightning company is also very easy to use, compared to you, I think I am really a failure in this life, except for playing basketball, I can't do anything. Wang Zhizhi shook hands with him warmly and said with a smile.

The second one to introduce is Li Nan.

This is also a legend of the national men's basketball team.

Li Nan is 34 years old this year, full of injuries, and has entered the twilight of his career. But Li Nan, who is in such a state, can still shoot from a distance and can still break through to the basket inside, his attack is stable and accurate, and his ability to seize opportunities is very strong. In the 08 Olympic Games, the Chinese men's basketball team was able to finish 8th, and he made a great contribution.

Zheng Xiao and Li Nan sympathized with each other again.

In short, most of the players are very enthusiastic about Zheng Xiao and are not indifferent to newcomers.

This is still because Zheng Xiao has done too brilliantly and successfully in other fields, and the men's basketball players are not a little worse than him.

However, Zheng Xiao found that he was not popular with everyone.

At least Liu Wei, who was originally the main defender in the national team, was not so friendly to Zheng Xiao. His face was very cold when he shook hands with Zheng Xiao, and Zheng Xiao even heard him snort softly in his nose.

Zheng Xiaoxin said, this is a threat I bring.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it.

He is not a renminbi, so he can't make everyone like him.

In the next week or so, Zheng Xiao participated in the training of the men's national basketball team.

Head coach Younas is a strongman, and perhaps, he is also a little prejudiced against Zheng Xiao. The Olympic Games are coming soon, and Zheng Xiao is late.

And at this time, the formation tactics and everything are almost finished.

If you want to integrate Zheng Xiao into tactics and tailor tactics for him, it will take a lot of time.

In addition, Younas may have always thought that Zheng Xiao's performance in the charity game in Las Vegas was so eye-catching that there was a lot of acting.

The basketball czar is not so optimistic about Zheng Xiao.

Therefore, in the first three or four days of training that Zheng Xiao participated, Younas kept Zheng Xiao training alone next to him.

This made the team leader Tian Xilin very dissatisfied.

Tian Xilin repeatedly made suggestions to Younas, asking him to let Zheng Xiao join the normal training, but the stubborn Younas refused.

But the turnaround came on July 14 at the in-house match.

On the morning of July 14, Younas announced that he would strengthen the offensive tactics and conduct intra-team confrontation matches.

Zheng Xiao was listed as a substitute for the substitute team.

In the first two minutes of the first quarter, the substitute team's playmaker Chen Jianghua fell in the middle of the offense, and the fall was not light.

Younas then turned to look at the bench, thought for a moment, he pointed at Zheng Xiao with his hand and said, "Zheng, you go!" ”

Zheng Xiao didn't say a word, stood up and walked towards the field.

At this time, the bench side scored six points behind the main team, and in fact, in the first two or three minutes, they did not score a point.

The main team is composed of Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, Sun Yue and Liu Wei.

The substitute team is composed of Wang Zhizhi, Du Feng, Li Nan, Liu Xiaoyu and Zheng Xiao.

Zheng Xiao served as the organizational defender and partnered with Liu Xiaoyu.

Younas hugged his arms and looked at Zheng Xiao who was about to receive Liu Xiaoyu's pass in the backcourt with a critical face, he was thinking that if Zheng Xiao behaved like a mess on the field, he would be ready to put Zheng Xiao in the cold forever and never use it again.

Anyway, in his original tactical system, Zheng Xiao is also a dispensable character.

On the field, Zheng Xiao was ready to receive the ball.

Liu Wei desperately wanted to prevent him from death, and he didn't even let him receive the ball.

Zheng Xiao knew the other party's thoughts, and this was to give herself a dismount.

He sneered in his heart, and with a change of direction and acceleration, he threw Liu Wei aside and received the ball from Liu Xiaoyu's hand.

At this time, Liu Wei came over like a sticky candy, and he wanted to break the ball from Zheng Xiao's hand. Zheng Xiao cheered up and played two quick feints in a row, almost shaking Liu Wei to the ground.

Zheng Xiao passed by him, and arrived at the front court in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Younas's cold expression soothed a lot, and there was even a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"The fundamentals are really solid, and the speed and agility are very good." He gave Zheng Xiao an evaluation, and all the contempt for Zheng Xiao in his heart was put away.

"Watch defensive!" Yao Ming stood under the basket and shouted.

Zheng Xiao's power is only what he has learned.

Zheng Xiao came to the front court and took a look at his teammates, Wang Zhizhi was closely guarded by Yi Jianlian, and Li Nan was ready to answer him at the three-point line on the right side.
