Chapter 720 [Lost Again, You've Lost Weight]

While Guo Xu was filming with the crew, the men's basketball World Championship began.

The U.S. national team has lost back-to-back games on the international stage, and many fans believe that they no longer deserve the title of "Dream Team".

This time, the American team couldn't afford to lose, and the Basketball Association wanted to invite Guo Xu to the national team, but before they could act, Guo Xu announced that he was going to make a movie during the holiday, and they had to find someone else.

A group of NBA stars formed the "Dream Seven", most of whom had been selected to the All-Star team. The head coach is Duke University basketball coach Mike Shashzewski, nicknamed "Old K"; The captains are Cameron Anthony, LeBron James, and Dwyane Wade.

This team is the "dream team" that has been in the army for the longest time in history, and the training time is far longer than before. In the 2004 Olympics, the U.S. team suffered a historic defeat because of poor running-in, and the basketball association learned a lesson.

They initially circled 25 players, and successively withdrew from the training team, and then after many practice games in China and South Korea, the Dream Seven team finally left 12 players, and the only ones who were not selected as All-Stars were Hinrich of the Bulls, Howard of the Magic and Battier of the Warriors.

The result is very similar to Guo Xu's previous life, the Dream Seven team performed bravely in the group stage, and Anthony, who was said to be a waste by Larry Brown in 2004, was the best on the team, averaging 20 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, and was selected to the best team.

Unfortunately, the Dream Seven team lost again, losing to Greece in the semi-finals, and finally defeated Argentina to win a bronze medal.

In addition to Anthony, the other two team cores have been questioned by the media and fans.

The main reason for the loss of the American team is that the basketball rules of the World Championships are different from those of the NBA, and it is easier to use the joint defense to defend the restricted area in the FIBA arena without defending for three seconds, which makes the American players very uncomfortable. James and Wade's main way of scoring is to break through, and if they can't get into the penalty area, their strength will be greatly reduced.

Once the U.S. team can't shoot from a long distance, and the opponent blocks the penalty area to limit the breakthrough, the offense will become very fluid.

Many fans expressed their incomprehension that Lao K let the least famous player play more, thinking that he was nepotistic. In fact, if Battier and Hinrich don't start, the starting lineup of the U.S. team will not be able to open up space at all, and it will be even more difficult for James to play.

On the other hand, the Greek team was still behind at the beginning, and in the second half, the sixth man Spanollis broke out to score consecutive points, and the overall mid-range shooting was accurate, and the reversal won by 5 points.

After watching the news, Guo Xu was very convinced that these "big-name stars" led by the 2003 golden generation even dared to lose to Greece.

The Greek team has two center forwards, Skesenitis, nicknamed "Little Shark", is 208CM tall and weighs 160 kg; The starting Papadopoulos is 210CM tall and weighs 115 kg, and he also plays a low position, with a tonnage type, these two can prevent blocking and dismantling?

American fans are more depressed, only the Rockets fans are happy, they just signed with Greek two-way guard Spinolris, he will play for the Rockets next season, the team for a small price in exchange for a strong player, can shoot suddenly.

Guo Xu didn't play in the World Championships, but fans are talking about him, he is the star with the highest exposure, and his popularity is comparable.

A lot of people have made statements like this.

"If Jason Guo participates, he will definitely win the championship easily, and in the face of a team like Greece that shrinks the defense, he just throws casually, and he has to score 100 points in a single game. The guards who went to the periphery couldn't play singles, and they were embarrassed to say that they were a dream team? ”

"Let's contact Jason as soon as possible and tell him to play in the Olympics in 2008, otherwise it will be embarrassing, a bunch of stars blown out are useless, Jason can make international players feel the fear of being dominated by the big devil."

"D'Antoni is an assistant coach in the national team, and the depth of the squad is completely overwhelming the Suns, but even Greece can't beat it, and now there are still mentally retarded people who say that the Suns won the championship because of the coach's tactics?"

D'Antoni really can't give any good advice to the Dream 7 team because there is no star who fits his system, and he likes to use the guard as the core rather than a small forward who lacks shooting ability.

The best rookie Paul is very fast, but he is a point guard who mainly plays positional battles, and his fast break is average, and Hinrich is a 193CM two-way guard who can't get up fast, and his specialty is shooting three-pointers and positional battles.

Even if the dream team of positional warfare is not able to block and dismantle the offense, because the core is James, his figure is not suitable for blocking and dismantling, he can only be an organizational striker, and he will be deflated when he encounters joint defense, with an average of 16+5+4 data per game, and the shooting rate of medium and long range shooting is very low.

The morale-boosting Greek team reached the finals and was beaten by Spain 47-75 to finish runner-up. At this moment, the psychology of American fans is a little balanced, and even if they enter the finals, it will be difficult for the American team to beat Spain, which has many NBA stars.

Pau Gasol won the MVP of the World Championships, Guo Xu feels that the possibility of the Lakers wanting to trade him is zero, the international arena and the NBA arena have proven themselves, and the Grizzlies should send Zach Randolph away if they want to rebuild.

The Chinese team was eliminated by Greece in the round of 16, and the biggest gain was that Yao Ming won the World Championships scoring title.

After a few days of discussion among the fans, the heat of the World Championships came down, and it was completely incomparable to the Football World Cup. Guo Xu once again became the focus of the media, and a lot of entertainment news was exposed.

"Kung Fu Panda" ended up grossing $682 million worldwide and $254 million at the North American box office, which was released on May 26, and a group of stars "X-Men 3" was released on May 19, and "The Da Vinci Code" starring Tom Hanks was released on June 28, and Warner's sci-fi blockbuster "Superman Returns" was released on June 28.

In this year's Hollywood movie box office charts, "Kung Fu Panda" is second only to "Pirates of the Caribbean 2". Film critics didn't expect that the box office appeal of a group of big-name movie stars could not compare to the panda dubbed by Guo Xu.

In fact, this film is really unreasonable if it doesn't break out, the release time card is very accurate, there is no fierce competition, and the quality of the several movies that hit them before and after is not very high.

One of the most bloody is "Superman Returns", Warner tossed for several years, the production cost exceeded 250 million, and finally came up with a strange thing, starring Brandon Rose was pitted to death.

The heroine Louise got married, gave birth to a child and was still Superman, and Superman invisibly let someone else take over. There are very few shots of Superman saving the world, and in the final battle, he actually went all the way to give Laibald a head, was tortured by Laibald with kryptonite, and then thrown into the sea, or Louise's husband rescued him from the sea. Can this kind of ghost plot not hit the streets?

Chinese media reported on Guo Xu more frequently, because the fox demon love TV series adapted from his single "Painting Heart" was released, with amazing ratings, and the hero and heroine became popular all over Asia. Koreans have the highest evaluation of this TV series, thinking that the plot is too Korean drama, but unfortunately it is not played by Guo Xu.

Because the TV series screenwriter has Guo Xu's name, it has attracted a large number of fans. He can make a hit if he makes anything, and acting in a musical can convince professional people, and Chinese fans are looking forward to his next work.

Many people hope that Guo Xu can go to China to do activities and lead the Suns to China to play in the preseason, but unfortunately they can only be disappointed, Guo Xu is really not available.

When the filming of "Inception" was completed, it was already the end of September, and it took nearly 5 months in total. Guo Xu spent a lot of energy and didn't have time to rest, and he only had to participate in the Sun's training camp after only resting for more than a week when he returned to Phoenix.

Megan Fox also finished filming "Transformers", which was also very hard. The start time of the two films is about the same, and the end time is about the same. When they met at home, the first thing they said was "You lost weight".

Then, infinitely emotional......
