On August 8, 2008, the United States had entered the height of summer.

Miami's beaches are now occupied by tourists from all over the United States.

In this resort-like city, everyone is enjoying his comfort.

Miami, it's a carefree city.

No matter what worries and worries you have, as long as you come to this city, you can all be relieved.

The sun, the sand, the blue and clear skies wash everything.

Visitors can get all the solace in the city, but as the owner of the city, Pat Riley is now feeling the chill in the middle of summer.

It's been a day since the Olympic men's basketball final at noon yesterday.

But what happened in the Olympic men's basketball team has only just begun to ferment.

That incredible influence swept the whole world.

Sitting in the general manager's office of the Heat, looking out the window at the scorching sun, Pat Riley's heart is now filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

"Mr. Riley......"

"Which media is it this time?"

Before the assistant who came to the shock could speak, Pat Riley asked coldly.

After the Olympic men's basketball final, he was frantically harassed by the media around the world.

He formed the biggest team in NBA history more than a month ago, the Miami Heat Big Five!

At that time, he was also being chased by the media all over the world, but at that time, he enjoyed the feeling of being chased by the whole world.

"I didn't leave the Lakers to come to Miami just to repeat what I did in Los Angeles."

"In a sense, I'm the same person as Jerry, he made Los Angeles the sacred capital of basketball with the Lakers, and I, Pat Riley, my dream is to make another city without basketball genes into another sacred capital of the basketball world!"

"I hope that in 10 years, you can put the name of Miami in the history of basketball alongside the names of Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago!"

"In ten years' time, Miami will be the Holy City, and this Holy City will be their God!"

More than a month ago, in the face of the world's pursuit, his declaration of building the fourth sacred capital of the basketball world was deafening, and it was simply a shock to the people of the entire basketball world.

His statement was considered by many media to be the same as James's 'not one, not two, not three, not even four, five, six' statement.

Of course, his and James' statements would be so similar.

How could they possibly come together otherwise?

"LeBron, I'll build you a holy city in Miami!"

"And you will be the god of this holy city!"

"I'll be on par with Cardinal, Jerry West, and you'll be on par with Russell and Magic!"

"Our sacred city will cut off the sacred path of the hundred-mile steel city at the foot of Seattle's Rainier Mountain, and you will also cut off Yes's path to becoming a god!"

"No matter how strong a person is without the Holy City, he will not be able to become a god!"

"LeBron, do you want to cut off Yes's path to godhood like Jordan with your own hands?"

"LeBron, do you want to destroy the prototype of the Holy City that Yes has already built?"

"Come, be with me, and you will be the great God, and I will be the creator of God, the creator of God!"

That's what he said when he finally tempted James!

In the end, his words managed to keep James' hand tightly together with his.

Except for Jordan, any god in this world needs the help of a god maker, so Jordan will be so unique before Yes appears.

He knows very well that LeBron James is a man of wisdom, and he can see that.

James has the potential to become a god!

And he's the one in the NBA who is most likely to become the new Godmaker!

Both of them were considered arrogant to the extreme.

So their cooperation is inevitable.

With the cooperation of the two, with the robbery of the Bulls, the Heat, who formed the Big Five at that time and got a bunch of high-quality role players, can really hit the championship with their eyes closed.

At that time, of course, they could freely show their arrogance and ambition.

Even a conspirator like him, who has always been stoic, can't suppress the urge to show off his ambitions.

Not to mention James, who is still young after all, although the city is very deep.

Therefore, James, who has always been modest before, said a lot of arrogant things after coming to the Heat.

And the arrogant words spoken by the two are highly unified in tone.

At the same time, it also offended a lot of those who were already unhappy with them.

For these media, Pat Riley has always been indifferent, and he also hopes that James will not care.

"As long as we can keep winning, as long as we can keep lifting that most sacred championship trophy, no matter how unhappy they are with us, they can only watch the holy city we built together stand tall in the end!"

"The moment the Holy City descends, they will go from booing us to cheering and adoring us!"

After the formation of the Big Five in Miami and the completion of the foundation stone of the Holy City, Pat Riley really did not expect that his Holy City had not yet been erected, and the cornerstone would have a tendency to collapse.

He watched the final between the American team and the Chinese team.

He really didn't expect James to be so miserable by Yes in the game!

As the man who traded O'Neal to the Heat in the first place, he certainly knows what's going on on the court.

When O'Neal was in the Heat pit with Wade, he had a guess.

It's just clear that no one in this world knows anything but him, Wade and James, who knows what the hell is going on in this game!

In the end, all the saliva of the world will pour into LeBron!

The crazy saliva like a torrent is really how arrogant he and James were at the beginning, how huge this torrent is, or even more huge!

The media, the fans, the NBA players, and even the players, coaches, and management of Team USA are all involved in this huge torrent.

He and James have not yet built an immortal holy city, and the flood that can destroy the world is coming, and he and James are still hot, and they can't even find a piece of their own Noah's Ark!

"Don't talk to me about 58 points!"

"I was cheated by LeBron James!"

"LeBron James, that kid looks quite honest, I didn't expect a belly of bad water in my stomach!"

"I've always said that everything happens for a reason, we lost so shamefully in this game, except that Yes is God, it's all LeBron James's kid, this should have been a game that belonged to me, I shot 80% in the game, imagine it, my shooting rate even 100% can't guarantee the United States team to win, you say, whose problem is this!"

Looking at the angry look of O'Neal when he was interviewed on TV now, it is very rare for Pat Riley to see an NBA superstar spray another NBA superstar like this!

And after O'Neal sprayed James, those reporters, media and viewers around him even applauded O'Neal!

"It's my responsibility for the loss of this game, it has nothing to do with O'Neal, with Billups, with Prince and with Kobe, Kidd, Rose, Boozer."

"They all worked hard to play the role I wanted them to play."

"I'm sorry about the dunk that went around O'Neal, Billups and Prince at the end, and I'd like to apologize here to Shaq, Chauncey and Tyshawn for being the backdrop for their 58-point shame."

"This time at the Olympics, as the head coach of the team, I will take full responsibility, and I have submitted my resignation to the US team."

"I'm responsible for my selection this time, I chose the wrong core at the wrong time, no, I chose the wrong core for the U.S. team twice, and the U.S. team lost the championship twice under me."

"I will accept everyone's criticism of me, and at the same time I will also advise the American team, suggest the next head coach of the American team, there are some players, you can never trust, no matter how strong his strength is, if the strongest weapon in his hand is against his own people, the stronger such a person, the more terrifying!"

"Am I hinting at anyone? I don't mean to hint at anyone, I'm talking about LeBron James, and choosing him as one of the co-captains of the 2006 World Championships and one of the co-captains of this year's Olympics was the worst decision I've ever made in my coaching career! ”

"That's all I have to say, thank you for the anticipation you have given us, and in the end I regret that your expectations have been disappointed."

At the end of O'Neal's interview, the second statement on television about James' performance in the Olympic final was that of Coach K, the head coach of the U.S. team.

As the most famous courtesan in the American basketball industry, Coach K is the first time in his impression that he has directly named a player by name!

"You ask me, what the hell happened to us in this game, how can I know what happened to us!"

"I know, it's a shame, I don't need you to stress it, but we're really, really hard!"

"Shaq, Bryant, me, Tyshawn, Jason, each of us worked so hard, we all wanted to win this game, we all wanted to give Yes a memorable moment in this game, we were trying to play our strength, we were strong, we were far stronger than Yes's teammates, Chen, Sun, Zhu...... What kind of players are our teammates and what kind of players are our players? They're the CBA, we're the NBA! ”

"What kind of level is American basketball, what kind of level is Chinese basketball, do you still need to talk about this?"

"But what about the end result?!"

"With our people working so hard, in the end, the American team lost to the Chinese team by 58 points, what is the reason for this?!"

"Go to TM's LeBron James!"

"That is, after the game, he and Wade ran away, otherwise I would have asked him to explain to us how the 58 points were scored!"

"Lose to the Chinese team by 58 points?"

"I don't even want my face!"

Watching Billups on TV, he shouted the phrase 'No face!' to the applause of all media reporters. Pat Riley's face was really ugly and horrible.

And at this time, the camera of the TV switched again, and this time the person who appeared on the TV was Kobe.

Seeing Kobe's figure, Pat Riley, who was originally very ugly, became even more uncomfortable.

He can see that the current public opinion in the United States is using the players of the American team to hold a criticism meeting for James!

This time, the U.S. team lost to the Chinese team by 58 points, and these pro-Yes media in the United States are ready to put all the responsibility on James's head!

Those media who supported Yes were ridiculed by him and James arrogantly more than a month ago, and now if they don't get it back in this situation, when will they get it back?

Looking at the previous statements of O'Neal, Coach K, Billups and others, Kobe and James have not dealt with each other before!

Before Yes appeared, it was James who stood opposite Kobe, and it was Kobe Bryant who stood opposite James!

Now that Kobe Bryant has such a good opportunity, can he not work Black James?

Even Billups, the James brother, and Anthony's teammates sprayed like this directly!

"Don't ask me about this game!"

"Don't ask me about the Olympics!"

"I'm sick to come here for a game that is destined to be humiliated!"

Carrying a 58-point shame in his career, this is of course a very uncomfortable thing for the arrogant Kobe.

This Pat Riley is understandable.

Because Kobe Bryant is indeed so angry on TV.

But to Pat Riley's surprise, Kobe's anger was not for James!

Kobe Bryant didn't spray James?!

"Bryant, what you said about the Chinese team and the American team are destined to be a humiliating game, is it because James is destined to go undercover in the game?"

"Do you have a premonition that O'Neal's magical performance in this Olympics and James would rather go undercover than be a non-MVP champion to sabotage O'Neal's MVP and lead the team to win the championship?!"

"Bryant, can you share how you suppressed your desire not to win the championship rather than destroy O'Neal's MVP to lead the team to the championship?"

"Do you have any advice for James?"

"I'll go to TM's to give James advice, I'll go to TM's MVP to lead the team to win the championship, dead fat, I'm not done with you!"

Looking at Kobe Bryant who slammed the door in anger on TV, Pat Riley was a little blind.

Could it be that Bryant also found something?

Now that only he and Wade still trust James in the world, it is very, very rare to have a person like Kobe Bryant who does not spray James.

And this person is still Kobe Bryant, who has always been at odds with James before!

But......

Pat Riley looked at the pictures of the American team players, NBA players, and well-known bigwigs in the basketball world on TV, with helplessness on his face and sigh in his heart.

Now the power of one or two people really can't stop this huge torrent.

Now, Pat Riley is really worried that James will collapse directly under such a huge torrent.

He didn't want to see James being beaten with 58 points, but what he didn't want was the fall of James more than the shame of 58 points.

James is a strong man, but more than a month ago, he was already hit by such a torrent.

At that time, he stood up.

Now, when the whole world is accusing him of selfishness, ruining the coronation of his teammates, and not even wanting the championship and the team, can he continue to stand?

This Pat Riley really doesn't know.

Because after the match between the Chinese team and the American team, James lost contact with the world.

Also missing contact with James was Wade.

No one knows what James and Wade are in right now.

Now Pat Riley is very worried about James's condition, he is not worried about Wade, Wade's psychological tolerance does not care at all, even if he sells Wade, when the Heat needs Wade one day, Wade has to care about everything back.

Even if James backstabbed Wade like a backstab O'Neal, even if Wade was injured and hurt, he would say that James was his brother.

Of course, James' backstabbing of O'Neal is an illusion created by Yes to deceive the world, which is fake.

Therefore, it is impossible for James to backstab Wade like this, and it is impossible not to win a championship because he can't win the MVP.

Pat Riley is now worried about the missing James.

And on a resort island in the Pacific Ocean, looking at the huge rock in front of him that was still standing there in the impact of the waves, James's face was quiet and peaceful.

This made Wade, who was standing behind James, a little unbelievable at this time.

When he left with James yesterday, it looked like the whole world had fallen apart.

Unexpectedly, in just one night, LeBron recovered from his collapse and despair!

Such willpower and vitality like Xiaoqiang, such an almost incredible ability to face setbacks and become more and more courageous, made Wade extremely surprised.

He had thought about comforting James all night last night, but now he was so suffocated by James' current condition that he couldn't say a word.

"LeBron ......"

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

When James looked at the huge rock in front of him and said this, he also didn't have too many negative emotions.

"Yesterday's game didn't knock me down, yesterday's shame only made me stronger, and in the face of Yes's defeat, I learned that basketball is not enough to focus only on the body, and at the same time, the technical training is not enough if you don't get home."

"After yesterday's game, I did lose my love and fun for a short time, I knew that I had a mental problem at that time, and at the same time, when I came out of that psychological shadow, I got a healthier, stronger brain, a healthy brain that can keep me awake and peaceful no matter what happens!"

"That game last night really changed me, not only did it make me laugh at the world, but it also made me really realize what I needed, Dwyan......"

With that, James finally withdrew his gaze from the boulder that had enlightened him and looked at Wade, who had been standing behind him and caring about him.

"Thank you, Dwyan."

"I'm going to be stronger, and since I'm not really myself eight years from now, I'm going to continue to work hard to make me the person I was eight years from now, in 2016!"

"At that time, I will never say that I fled back to Cleveland like Yes taunted me, and at that time, I would stand in my kingdom of God and look down on everything in this world, including Yes!"

Seeing that James's peaceful eyes suddenly seemed to emit a breathtaking light like the 'Pupil of Death', Wade's eyes were already wide.

It took a while for Wade to come back to his senses from the shock.

"LeBron, I believe in you!"

"Always trust you!"

At home, they magically defeated the United States team by 58 points, which made the Chinese men's basketball team a national hero after the game!

The match between the Chinese team and the United States team was a game that was considered to have few chances for the Chinese team before the game.

But in the end, the players of the Chinese team played such a result.

Miracles, bravery, fearless!

For a time, the whole country was calling for learning the 'men's basketball spirit'.

If the five consecutive championships of the women's volleyball team more than 20 years ago made the spirit of the women's volleyball team synonymous with the Chinese sports world, then the men's basketball Olympic championship this time made the 'men's basketball spirit' on the stage.

When all walks of life across the country learn the spirit of men's basketball under the leadership of the highest official, the impact is really huge.

For such an impact, Ye Si is also willing to see.

Not only him, Yao Ming and many people in the Chinese basketball industry are willing to see it.

"Xiao Yezi, do you know why the women's volleyball team can always be tenaciously reborn in underestimation?"

"It's because of the spirit of the women's volleyball team!"

"Every women's volleyball player wears the national flag, and they know that they can't live up to the spirit of the women's volleyball team expected by the whole country, so they can always be reborn from the fire and always move forward!"

"Now our men's basketball team will also have such a spirit!"

"I believe that in the future, when every player of the Chinese men's basketball team enters the national team, they will be proud, they will hold their heads high, they will give everything they have, they don't care about failure, they don't care about the results, they only care about not insulting the spirit that is expected by the whole country!"

Yao Ming was excited.

Because Yao Ming saw that as long as there is the spirit of the men's basketball team, the Chinese men's basketball team will never collapse again.

Yao Ming hopes so, and he also hopes so.

On September 8, 2008, a month after the National Learning Activity of Men's Basketball Spirit, Ye Si once again said goodbye to his parents and boarded the plane to the United States again.

"I hope that in 10 years, you can put the name of Miami in the history of basketball alongside the names of Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago!"

"In ten years' time, Miami will be the Holy City, and this Holy City will be their God!"

On the plane, looking at the picture of Pat Riley playing repeatedly on the big screen in front of him, Yes was not surprised.

It's been a month.

But the nation's worldwide whipping of James and Pat Riley isn't over yet......

"The Holy City......"

Looking at the arrogant figure on TV, Ye Si muttered to himself.
