"Six of the 12 members of the U.S. men's basketball team are under the age of 22, they have no previous international tournament experience, and only three of them have been selected for the national team, and only one has Olympic experience (Odom), and none of the members of the 2008 championship team came to Turkey."

After the game, the American media said sourly that the Chinese men's basketball team only won the U.S. men's basketball team B, and it was not the dream team of the U.S. men's basketball team at all.

In addition, Lao K said in an interview after the game that he would withdraw from the U.S. men's national basketball team.

"On the road to redemption, we have not been able to win the championship, 16 years, the United States has not won the World Championship, the World Series always seems to be separated from us, maybe it is time for American basketball to change." Coach K said that he was a little powerless and hoped that the future of the American men's basketball team would have better results.

The World Championships are over, but some tidbits are still fermenting.

In addition to the veteran K coach's heavy withdrawal from the U.S. men's basketball team, Serbia's failure to win a medal triggered a clash in Kosoja, resulting in many injuries.

Kosoa Mitrovica is divided into north and south by a bridge, with Serbs in the minority occupy the north and Albanians in the south. Mitrovica police spokesman Besimhoti told The Associated Press that ethnic Albanians in the south "began to celebrate the Turkish team's victory," sparking clashes when the two sides threw stones at each other under the bridge. There were reports of machine guns and explosions during the clashes.

A NATO spokesman, speaking on condition of anonymity, said two NATO peacekeepers were slightly injured in the clashes.

Clashes seem to be the main theme after the game, and there are always clashes that come after the game, mostly between fans.

For this reason, according to the requirements of FIBA, everyone postponed their return to China by one day, and specially recorded a public service advertisement of "civilized football".

Wang did not return with the team tomorrow, and as soon as the World Championships were over, he went on vacation, and he and Gail took two oil bottles around the mountains and rivers.

"Gail, where do you want to get married, we can prepare for the wedding."

In a seaside town in Italy, Wang Ming put his arm around Gail's waist, looked at the sunset and the Atlantic Ocean, and said affectionately.

"In China, I think it's very good, after all, there is a saying in China, it is called marrying a chicken with a chicken......."

Wang Mingming: "......."

Wang Mingming is very happy, Gail is really trying to integrate into his culture, so the level of Chinese continues to improve, even if you can't be an actor in the future, it is more than enough to be a Chinese teacher in the United States.

Wang took a leave of absence for most of the month tomorrow and then returned to China.

In China, Wang visited his parents tomorrow and set a date for next year's wedding.

Because you are marrying a foreigner, there is less red tape, and the most important thing is to choose the location and time of the hotel, and be prepared to inform friends and family.

In early October, Wang will return to the United States tomorrow.

At this point, the Kings had completed the makeup shoot, and there were 20 players on the team, and of course, only five players remained in the squad.

After seven preseason games, the Kings have all their rosters for the new season.

Point guards: Jason Kidd (83), Eric Bledsoe (71), Patrick Beverley (63)

Shooting guards: DeMar DeRozan (86), Aaron Afflaro (77), Lance Stephenson (67)

Small forwards: Nicholas Batum (81), Omi Cosby (76)

Power forwards: Al Jefferson (84), J. Hickson (79), Al Harrington (79), Jason Thompson (74)

Centre-forwards: Tyson Chandler (80), Marcin Gortat (78), Hassan Whiteside (65)

The team happens to have a full squad of fifteen people, including 6 people on the guard line, 6 people on the forward line, 6 people on the center position, shooters, assaulters, rebounding monsters, rim players, and low attackers.

Wang Ming is very confident in this lineup.

"In the summer we lost some good players, but now we still have some good players in the team, we are not going to retreat, I believe these players, they have super energy, and the goal of the new season is still to win the championship."

Losing the top wing defender and playmaker Artest, and losing the top spatial No. 4 position, the league's combination of sudden shooting, and the super power forward Chris Bosh, Wang still has the confidence to shout such a slogan tomorrow, according to reason, the media must be a wave of ridicule, and then catch up with a wave of analysis.

But now, the wind direction has changed, if it is another coach, it must be, but if it is Coach Wang Mingming.......

What Coach Wang Tomorrow said makes sense!

Coach Wang made a point of mentioning new signing Al Jefferson.

"Al is faster, more powerful, and more agile than people think, he's the best low-post offensive player in the league at the No. 4 or 5 position today, he can also shoot from the middle, he can grab rebounds and complete the basket strong offense, his arrival will greatly enrich our interior offensive tactics, and the new season, the Kings' twin towers will be a nightmare in the West."

"The Twin Towers?"

The coaches in the league secretly pricked up their ears, and with the lineup of Al Jefferson + Tyson Chandler, it didn't seem inappropriate to call it the "Twin Towers".

Could it be that in the new season, Wang will try a new tactic tomorrow and switch to attacking with twin towers?

Previously, Wang Tomorrow came to the King, and brought various changes to the King's passing and cutting tactics, which can be called the "Princeton" of the new era, Wang Tomorrow is best at adapting measures to local conditions, maybe the players have changed, and the King's tactical core will also change?

As a result, many teams held coaching staff meetings overnight to discuss how to crack the game if the Kings used the twin-tower strategy.

At this time, the Kings' new roster has been running in for a while.

In the preseason, the record was 4-3, and the record was not satisfactory.

On Oct. 26, the Kings, the defending champions, qualify for the opening game, which will host the Houston Rockets and present a championship ring.

The biggest deal the Rockets made in the summer was to stabilize Yao Ming and renew his contract, and it is not surprising that Yao Ming will play with the Rockets until he is 35 years old.

There is not much grudge between the two teams, but it is always a little uncomfortable to watch the Kings award championship rings away.

The Rockets have particularly strengthened their wings in the offseason, such as Courtney Lee joining the Rockets, and the defensive stalwart revealed that he has been playing with several of the Rockets' youngsters in the summer, such as Brooks, Wilson Chandler, Gallinari, etc.

"He's like another Sean Battier, who has the same on-court values and who will give up his own personal interests for the sake of the team." Rosa believes Lee's defensive skill and dedication are no less than that of exemplary player Battier.

The Rockets are fully staffed, and the Kings have already had injuries to players at the start of the new season, and Omi Cosby injured his finger in previous practice, which left him out of the opener.

The Kings will release Hassan Whiteside and Patrick Beverley tomorrow, who will play for the Kings' Development League team.

In fact, according to the order, Lance Stephenson should have been dropped, but Cosby's injury gave him a chance, and Wang tomorrow made him the 12th on the team for the sake of balance of the squad.

Amid the cheers of the fans, the Kings raised the championship flag.

Subsequently, all were awarded championship rings.

The Rockets players stood on the sidelines very gentlemanly, silently sending applause and blessings, and there was inevitably a bit of envy in their eyes.

After the ceremony, the starters from both sides came on.

Wang shook hands with Rockets head coach Rick Adelman tomorrow.

Adelman didn't dare to slack off, today's Wang Mingming is not the hairy boy he saw a few years ago, the current Wang Mingming is the top coach in the league and the MVP among the real coaches.

Kings starters: Kidd, DeRozan, Batum, Jefferson, Chandler.

Rockets starters: Aaron Brooks, Wilson Chandler, Gallinari, Millsap, Yao Ming.

The Arco Arena was packed, and after the Kings took off, basketball became the most popular sport in Sacramento, and watching an NBA game was a happier event for the citizens of Sacramento.

Today's opening game caused a sensation throughout Sacramento, and the mayor and others also made a special trip to the scene to watch the game.

Yao Ming and Chandler jump the ball from the halfway line.

The two have played each other many times in the World Championships and the NBA, and this time, Chandler is triumphant.

"The coach is here, this time, see how you still win me."

Yao Ming: "......."

Chandler jumped the ball to win, and the Kings had the ball.

TNT broadcast, and Reggie Miller talked about the Kings' tactical issues.

"I heard that the Kings will adopt a two-tower strategy in the new season."

"That's right, Coach Wang Ming said in an interview that the Kings will try some different tactics in the new season, and the twin towers tactic may also be one of the tactics.

The Kings are attacking in the frontcourt, and the Kings make a gesture tomorrow.

The Rockets specifically targeted the two twin towers of the Kings, only to see the two towers standing in front of them on the left and right, making a double pick-and-roll cover for Jason Kidd.

"Double-stop?"

The expected twin-tower tactics weren't yet fully revealed, and Kidd took a step to the right with the ball, hanging Al Jefferson cover.

Then, Chandler, who was not covering on the other side, suddenly turned around and ran to a 45-degree position to make a cover for DeMar DeRozan, who was in his pocket.

DeRozan ran up, his hands raised, and Kidd took away a bunch of defenders at this time, with long eyes in the back of his head, and passed DeRozan in seconds.

No. 9 catches the ball, dribbles a step, takes a big step with long legs, puts his feet on the ground, turns over and drifts in the middle distance!

"What?"

Rocket fans were dumbfounded.

DeRozan threw a shot like Kobe Bryant, and the defender was a position behind the screen, and when he jumped, he couldn't reach DeRozan at all.

"It's impossible to get in, right?"

Looking at this posture, many fans feel that the difficulty is particularly high, and it should be impossible to enter.

In fact, in the NBA, as long as many players have the right rhythm, the shooting rate is very high, and if the rhythm is not right, the action is deformed, and the shooting rate will drop significantly.

DeRozan practiced his ball-holding skills in the summer, especially the kung fu of dribbling and shooting in one step.

"Huh!"

The first goal of the new season, the whole audience cheered.

From DeRozan, from the Kings' No. 9 show last year!

Wang Ming nodded with satisfaction.

........

Two days ago, the training hall of the Arco Arena.

Wang Mingming walked into the stadium with several assistant coaches, and in the stadium, the players were training seriously to prepare for the new season.

Artest is gone, and DeRozan is certainly not going to continue to rub his trainer, who now has his own personal trainer in the arena, training offensive skills with the ball.

Wang watched from the sidelines for a while, with a DeRozan report in his hand.

DeRozan is stronger than last year, but has a lower body fat percentage, and his bounce, strength, and speed are much higher than when he entered the league.

This is not too exaggerated change, many NBA players will be like this, when they first enter the league, they are still young, some are not even fully developed, until the basketball player is 25 years old, a basketball player is really at the peak of the state, if there is no injury trouble, all conditions will be the peak.

DeRozan's skills have also improved, in addition to three-point shooting and defense, he has specially practiced three-threat offense in the summer, and in the American heads-up, he has mastered the ability to make a one-handed emergency stop in the middle distance.

Wang watched DeRozan practice for a while, and then beckoned DeRozan to rest.

DeRozan ran to Wang Mingming's side, and the two chatted as they walked.

"Demar, you are a good boy with self-discipline, and I have seen your growth."

The king praised tomorrow.

Hearing the head coach's praise, DeRozan was immediately a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and then DeRozan said: "I followed your advice, you saw my shortcomings at a glance, I worked hard to improve my shortcomings, and the level of basketball continued to improve." ”

'I'm going to try a little bit of a different tactic for the new season, I've already spoken to Jason about him, and you're going to take on more of the attacking responsibility in the new season.

Wang Ming thought for a moment, and then gestured, as if he had drawn an area.

"Mainly in the elbow zone, a player like you, in the elbow zone you can attack, have you ever stepped back after training?"

DeRozan was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "No, coach." ”

"The next thing you have to improve is this ability, and in the new season, I will arrange a lot of offense on both elbows, attacking the basket when you go in, and you can shoot two points and three points when you retreat."

"Two points longer?" DeRozan was taken aback, last season's long two points, but only Chris Bosh has that right.

"Yes, just a metaphor."

Wang Ming Ming talked about Al Jefferson again: "Al's low post offensive skills are very good, he is a rare player in the league with a balanced left and right hand, players like him, such as Carlos Boozer, such as Pau Gasol, Yao Ming and other traditional centers are difficult to defend. ”

DeRozan was thoughtful.

"In the future of basketball, there is no distinction between traditional and new, whoever is more accurate and more efficient will be the winner on the court."
