Chapter 463: A big victory over Argentina
The two sides talked for about half an hour through the translator, and it was basically a negotiation.
In fact, there is nothing to talk about, generally speaking, the main point of disagreement in this kind of thing must be in money, and now the Timberwolves are in a hurry to get rid of Yi Dun's matter, and directly gave an offer that the Dongshan men's basketball team can't refuse, so there is no disagreement between the two sides.
However, after the price was negotiated, the most important thing came, and the Timberwolves were also afraid that Yi Dun would suddenly change his mind at that time, and after he helped him buy out the contract, he would not go to play in the NBA, or not in the short term.
Now if the Timberwolves want to sign Eden, they can only do so in the next year, and they can't delay it.
Because if it drags on to next year's draft, the team with the top pick will definitely choose Yi Dun, and unless the Timberwolves have the top pick in their hands or can trade the top pick, they will be completely empty.
So now in addition to helping Yi Dun buy out the contract, they must also hurry up to sign a written contract with Yi Dun.
Even if it is a verbal agreement, the Timberwolves are not at ease, there are many things in the NBA that verbally agree and then change the hexagram, for example, Boozer, who was the Cavaliers, made a verbal agreement with the Cavaliers that he would stay with the Cavaliers, but he still ran away.
However, Boozer's situation was not quite the same as that of Eden, when Boozer was given a big contract by other teams, and he could never become the team boss if he stayed with the Cavaliers, and finally did something to run away.
"We have no right to interfere in the matter of Yi Dun, which requires you to communicate with Yi Dun." Gong Xiaobin said in a deep voice.
Glenn Taylor's side wants the Dongshan men's basketball team to give a guarantee, that is, Yi Dun will join their team after the Olympics, and Gong Xiaobin naturally can't give such a guarantee.
After Yi Dun left the Dongshan men's basketball team, it was his own freedom to go to which team, and Gong Xiaobin couldn't interfere and didn't want to interfere.
"The only thing we can do is to give up the contract of Eden, and the rest of the things need to be negotiated by you."
"However, according to my understanding of Yi Dun, since he said that he wants to join your team, he will definitely not change his mind, and Yi Dun's character is still guaranteed."
"If you don't feel at ease, you can put the contract between us aside for a while, you go to London to find Yi Dun first, and talk about it after negotiating with Yi Dun, anyway, we are not in a hurry." Gong Xiaobin said.
The Dongshan men's basketball team is indeed not in a hurry to sign this contract, 10 million US dollars is indeed a lot, but for the Dongshan men's basketball team, which has made a lot of money in recent years, it is not a sky-high price.
The Timberwolves still didn't sign this contract in the end, and decided to follow what Gong Xiaobin said, go to London to find Yi Dun first, negotiate with Yi Dun, and it is best to sign a written contract before signing a buyout contract with the Dongshan men's basketball team.
After sending this group away, Gong Xiaobin couldn't say anything in his heart.
Yi Dun is going to play in the NBA, Gong Xiaobin is looking forward to it, looking forward to Yi Dun being able to play such a dominant force in the NBA, and it is best to create a dynasty in the NBA.
However, thinking that it would be difficult to see Yi Dun again in the future, and it would be impossible to coach Yi Dun on the court again, Gong Xiaobin was extremely reluctant in his heart.
……
The Olympic men's basketball third-place battle is about to begin, and Yi Dun and others are waiting for this game in the locker room.
There is nothing to say about Argentina in this game, and Yi Dun must take care of the opponent's backcourt sharpener Ginobili on the defensive end.
It can be said that if Ginobili is completely restricted, Argentina will not be able to make any waves at all.
is roughly similar to the French team against before, limiting Parker, the opponent lacks one of the most important main offensive points, and the Chinese men's basketball team's strong rebounding protection ability, the opponent is unlikely to win.
It may be easier for the Chinese men's basketball team led by Yi Dun to play a team like France or Argentina than the American men's basketball team to play them.
After all, the U.S. men's basketball team can't find a player like Yi Dun who is invincible in defense to target the opponent's offensive knife.
"Yi Dun is in charge of Ginobili, Sun Yue, you are in charge of Nocioni, and you are in charge of Scola, no matter how you look at this game, we will also win." Dazhi said to everyone quite relaxedly.
If it had been left in the past, Dazhi, who was low-key by nature, would definitely not have said such a thing, but the previous games gave Dazhi a lot of confidence.
Everyone all looked at Yi Dun, as Dazhi said, tonight's game is indeed a win, as long as Yi Dun can lock up Ginobili, winning is not a problem at all.
"Brother Dun, I heard that the UAE said that you are going to the Timberwolves?" Zhang Zhaoxu asked curiously.
Yi Dun nodded, "Well, that's really the plan at the moment, but it depends on whether the Dongshan men's basketball team lets me go." ”
Zhang Zhaoxu sighed, "Hey, it's a pity, I originally wanted to join hands with you in the CBA to win a ten-consecutive championship, but now it seems that I will definitely not be able to get it." ”
Yi Dun couldn't cry or laugh, ten consecutive championships? That's not going to give other teams a way to live.
In any basketball league, the emergence of a super team is definitely a good thing and can help the league attract more fans.
But if this team is too strong and too strong, such as Zhang Zhaoxu said, it will not be a good thing to win ten consecutive championships.
Competitive sports need suspense, and if a team wins the championship every year without suspense, I am afraid that many fans will lose their interest and fun in watching football.
Perhaps the best example is the original Boston Celtics dynasty in the NBA, from 1959 to 1968, the Celtics won a total of 10 championships in 11 seasons, which was undoubtedly a ridiculously strong team at that time.
But as a result, the Celtics' domination almost sent the NBA into the abyss, if it weren't for David Stern's star-making plan to create a black-and-white confrontation and the basketball god Jordan and others, the NBA is estimated to have become the dust of history.
"After I leave, the burden of the Dongshan men's basketball team will be on your shoulders." Yi Dun patted Zhang Zhaoxu's shoulder and said.
"No problem, although the possibility of winning the championship has become much smaller, but we strive to make the Dongshan men's basketball team still a strong team." Zhang Zhaoxu said confidently.
Yi Dun nodded, he believed what Zhang Zhaoxu said, now Zhang Zhaoxu is the first center in the CBA, it is already worthy of the name, in the face of some foreign players, Zhang Zhaoxu can also gain an advantage in the confrontation, under his leadership, even if the Dongshan men's basketball team does not win the championship, it must be a strong team.
……
The game is about to start and players from both sides are starting to enter the stadium.
After the Argentine men's basketball player saw Yi Dun, his face was quite complicated.
The strength of the Chinese men's basketball team is not terrible, but if you add Yi Dun, it will be terrible.
Ginobili, in particular, has a lot of headaches right now, who will Eden put his defensive energy on in this game? Needless to say? Definitely yourself.
……
The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game and the starters from both sides began to come on.
The starting lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team is still Yi Dun, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng and Sun Yue.
Dazhi and Liu Wei, two veterans, are now directly playing as substitutes, as veterans of their age, they don't care if they don't substitute or not, as long as the team can win, they don't need to use the data on the field to prove themselves.
After Sun Yue controlled the ball, he saw Yi Dun rushing to the front court first, and simply threw the ball directly towards the basket near the halfcourt line.
In the past two days of team training, Sun Yue discovered an amazing thing.
As long as the opponent's frontcourt does not form a tight defense against Yi Dun, then his point guard casually throws the ball in the direction of the basket, and Yi Dun can always receive the ball smoothly and dunk it in.
In Sun Yue's view, this is completely a superpower, if he also has this ability, he can also mix the name of a dunking general in the NBA.
The overall strength of some players in the NBA is not very good, but because of their strong dunk strength, they can still mix with super popularity, such as Brent Barry, the old brother who was Parker Green, is such a typical example.
If Sun Yue really had this kind of superpower, maybe he would be able to mix well now.
Yi Dun, who ran to the front court, received Sun Yue's seemingly littered pass in mid-air, and then took a stride to dunk the ball in, and Ginobili, who was following him, could only sigh, who would have thought that this goal could be scored.
Sun Yue really dared to pass on, and after the key was passed, Yi Dun really dared to enter.
Just this incredible pass and goal directly made the morale of the Argentine men's basketball team sink to the bottom of the sea, how to fight in the face of this kind of monster?
They are not the U.S. men's basketball team, and the U.S. men's basketball team can rely on a strong roster to offset the strength of Eden.
The lineup on Argentina's side is indeed better than the Chinese men's basketball team that went to Yidun to plane, but it is not the kind of crushing good, at least compared to the lineup of the American men's basketball team, Argentina is not enough.
In this case, they can't offset the strength of Yi Dun at all, and they know very well that this game is more than lucky.
It was the turn of the Argentine men's basketball team to attack the offensive round, Yi Dun stuck to Ginobili, let alone attack, Ginobili couldn't get the opportunity to connect the ball.
Speed, strength and bounce, Yi Dun is stronger than Ginobili is more than a star and a half, it can be said that there is a difference between cloud and mud, Yi Dun now uses his whole body skills to prevent Ginobili's catch, causing Ginobili to play more and more sad.
I can't even catch the ball in this game, what is the meaning of myself on the field?
A few minutes have passed, and the Chinese men's basketball team has established an extremely obvious advantage, both in terms of the score and the situation on the court, which is far better than the Argentine men's basketball team.
Dazhi on the sidelines breathed a long sigh of relief, originally he was still a little worried, for fear of any accidents, but now it seems that he has thought too much, this game is as he said, it is winning!
……
Soon the half-time game was over, and Yi Dun stayed on the court for 20 minutes, leading the Chinese men's basketball team to a huge advantage of 57:39.
Maybe it's because it's just one step away from the bronze medal, so the players are very excited to play tonight and feel quite good.
By the time the second half began, the Argentine side seemed to have basically lost their fighting spirit, falling behind by nearly 20 points in the first half, and it was difficult to recover this game, not to mention that there was such a monster as Eden in the opposing lineup.
Originally, Yi Dun wondered what small moves the opponent's Nocioni would use on himself, but what he didn't expect was that Nocioni's defense tonight was quite clean, I don't know if it was because of the World Series, Nocioni didn't want to embarrass his country.
In the Olympics for a game like this, the number of viewers can be counted in the hundreds of millions, and the players on the field represent not only themselves, but also their respective countries.
If Nocioni used all kinds of dirty actions on such occasions, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not bring black to his country.
Of course, there are some countries that don't care much about sportsmanship, such as South Korea and South Korea.
In the second half of the game, Yi Dun saw that the score difference was getting bigger and bigger, so he didn't mean to kill the opponent, and took a break for a few minutes from time to time, trying to keep the score difference between the two sides within 25 points.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Argentina with a score of 119:97!
Zhang Weiping in the CCTV commentary room was already speechless with excitement, not only Zhang Weiping, I am afraid that tonight will be a sleepless night for any domestic basketball practitioner.
Domestic fans have long been unable to suppress their excitement and cheer loudly, this history-making men's basketball bronze medal has marked that the Chinese men's basketball team has since entered the ranks of the world's basketball giants.
