Since he decided to be the head coach of the Argentine men's basketball team, Hu Qingniu couldn't wait to implement this matter the next day.

For the current Argentine government, everything is simple, and the process of appointing Hu Qingniu is simple. Registration, without even a press conference, would be too extravagant and wasteful for the Argentine government, which is in deficit.

In other words, after a breakfast, Ginobili took care of Hu Qingniu's appointment as the head coach of the Argentine men's basketball team.

This Argentine team, which people are used to calling the "golden generation", is indeed worthy of these glittering four words. Looking at the predecessors and latecomers of the Argentine men's basketball team, there is no era that can be compared with the current Argentine team. Even if it is 10 years from now, these players in the current team will still be the anchor of the Argentine men's basketball team.

It's just that now even the "golden generation" itself doesn't know what kind of big things they can do.

Argentina's leading defender is Juan Sanchez, the epitome of a sleek and steady style, and if you don't know him, it's not very important. You just have to know that he's pretty much a copy of Kidd, and he does everything but score well.

In fact, he is the first Argentine to play in the NBA, he can do a good job of assists, rebounds, steals, and even blocks, but he just doesn't know how to score, of course, he didn't adapt to the big stage of NBA performance, three seasons to three teams, a total of only 38 games (5 games for the Hawks, 24 games for the 76ers, 9 games for the Pistons), and he left the United States in frustration.

How strong is he? Prigioni, a veteran point guard better known to NBA fans, was still playing as a substitute for Sanchez in the national team until he was 30 years old.

Needless to say, Ginobili at the scoring position, Andrés Nocioni at small forward is also a talented player. If nothing else, he's going to be in the NBA this summer and have a good NBA career.

Nocioni is not a typical European forward, and although he has three-point ability, he lacks outside stability, has slow shots, and has average conduction ability. His main means of scoring is to cut into the inside attack, and his style of play on the court is quite fierce. The bounce ability is very good, and in the NBA, he can often complete the violent dunks in the people.

Defensively, Nocioni made a lot of small moves. With a small kick with a clear shoulder and a dark elbow, Nocioni will use all the hardware to fight his opponent, sacrifice any parts of his body in order to get a foul or a defensive rebound, and take advantage of the referee's blink of an eye.

is also good at attacking the heart, and once used small actions to provoke Atai, which made the entire Pacers team thunderous. With a good sense of defense, he is not fast on his feet, and can only barely keep up with a small forward like Maddie, and his weight and strength are not up to the task of interior defense. But on the smaller FIBA field, Nocioni's physical condition was more than adequate.

Although he has excellent rebounding ability and a strong style, Nocioni does not have a strong enough body to play as a cameo as a power forward, and his playing speed is too slow, and small forward is the only position he can do. Such a small forward is not too broad for Hu Qingniu's tactical options.

However, Nocioni has a good sense of the off-ball, can contribute a lot to the team without having to take the ball, and belongs to the blue-collar players who have no shortage of attacking power. This is another performance of a good team player.

The big forward position of the "Golden Generation" is the famous "Diamond" Luis Scola.

Hu Qingniu has made no secret of his love for him since his last life, and in his opinion, whether he can beat the American Dream Team or not, Scola is more crucial than Ginobili. Because in what is now Argentina, Scola is the only pillar of support. And on the international stage, Scola's record can be described as strong.

Just one incident is enough to prove how shining the "diamond" shines in the international arena.

Argentina and the United States met in '04, and it was Spurs' Tim Duncan who defended Scola. But, but, but, Duncan was brutally blown up by Scola, there was no oppressive power, no ghostly speed, Scola just used his feet to play Duncan, the NBA defensive master, around.

It's all about technology to break into the world, this is Hu Qingniu's evaluation of Scola.

Scola is strong and nimble, with big hands and quick feet. The on-the-spot response is flexible and changeable, and the field of vision is broad. And as a big man, he has good ball handling and good passing, especially feeding low players in the high post.

Although Scola does not have an advantage in height, he has a variety of offensive moves, and he can always avoid the opponent's block under the basket to score points. And he's very good at rebounding, and it's not uncommon to see him grabbing rebounds in crowds on the international stage. Even a tall man like Gasol is not as good as him.

In addition, he can use flexible movement on the interior to make space for teammates to break through. This is also a unique skill, which is exactly where Hu Qingniu can take advantage of it.

Among the rest of the team are also familiar figures to NBA fans.

Blue-collar center Oberto, playmaker small forward Delfino, and traditional point guard Prigioni. A common characteristic of Argentine players is that they started their careers in Europe, and some of them played for too long, and some of them even didn't let go of their clubs in Europe, so that they didn't reach the top of themselves in the NBA.

Another common trait of Argentina's "golden generation" is that they are all surprisingly tough, competitive and very united. Even the successful Ginobili will not be above everyone in this team.

In the Eastern Conference Finals that ended earlier, Hu Qingniu's Bobcats were defeated by two floorballs, and they were also defeated by the iron-blooded style of the Pistons led by Larry Brown.

It didn't take long for Hu Qingniu to take over such a team that has always been tough, and this time he was going to let Larry Brown have a good pot. Let him know what it means to be brutally tough.

With an excellent team, Hu Qingniu doesn't have to think about the personnel problem, what he needs to do now is to put the whole team together.

Scola is still young, and Argentina's starting interior lineup has been Oberto and Ruben Walkowski. Ruben is a center with three-point range and works well as a surprise player, but starting Scola is a better choice.

There is still a Montecchia on the bench that cannot be ignored, and in the eyes of Argentine fans, Montecchia is their best point guard, even Sanchez and Prigioni cannot be compared. Montecchia is a player with Ginobili-like characteristics and a talent for tearing apart opponents' defenses, and Hu intends to put him on the bench and lead the second team to charge.

Hu Qingniu plunged into the affairs of the Argentine men's basketball team, which made Popovich and others, who were ready to travel, dumbfounded.

The next day, Bobo had to take Parker and Duncan on his own, and even Ginobili, the local tour guide, was revoked by Hu Qingniu, who kept Ginobili on the grounds that he was familiar with the players.

Hu Qingniu also found a problem, his visa is a tourist visa, and he can only stay in Argentina for a month. And the Olympics are almost two months away, which is also a big problem.

After thinking about it for a long time, Hu Qingniu decided to lead the team to the United States for training. As for the expenses, you can reimburse yourself for a plane ticket, and when you get to the United States, with Hu Qingniu's fame, you can still pull some sponsorship.
