Chapter 159: Only Half a Half
Men's Basketball Training Center. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Didn't play in the first half? Why? Is there something wrong with you? Do you want to call a team doctor? No, if you're not feeling well, I'll have to report it to the regiment headquarters as soon as possible! Coach Liu said with a concerned face.
Zhang Guan took the initiative to propose to the coaching staff that only half of the game should be played, and the head coach Younas and the other two assistant coaches have not yet expressed their position, but the other assistant coach Coach Liu is in a hurry first. He really cares about Zhang Guan's body.
Coach Liu is different from the other two assistant coaches, the other two assistant coaches are coaches of CBA teams and were called up to the national team as assistant coaches, but Coach Liu is an official of the Basketball Association, and he serves as an assistant coach, mainly on behalf of the Basketball Association. This Coach Liu usually does not participate in the team's training, but such as receiving the media, contacting superiors, logistics and other work, this Coach Liu completes it.
It is precisely because of this that Coach Liu is the person who cares about Zhang Guan the most in the entire men's basketball coaching staff, if Zhang Guan has a problem, several other coaches can pat his ass and leave, but Coach Liu, as a serious official, is responsible.
"I'm not physically fine, it's just that I've been playing in a row, so I do get a little bit tired and need some more time to adjust." Zhang Guan thought for a while, and then said: "And I think that playing the American team, it is enough to play a second half seriously, and there is no point in leading or falling behind in the first half." Instead, play a second half with all your might, maybe there will be a miracle. ”
"It's also said that when you play against the U.S. team, the score really doesn't make much sense." Coach Guo replied from the side, but he didn't care about the "miracle" that Zhang Guan said.
"Are you sure there's nothing uncomfortable about your body?" Coach Liu confirmed again.
"Nope." Zhang Guan nodded seriously.
Coach Liu was still a little hesitant, and Coach Guo next to him said a few words in Coach Younas's ear, and then Coach Younas nodded and said: "Zhang Guan's games have been very intense these days, and it is indeed hard enough, if there are no accidents, let you rest first in the first half, no problem." ”
"Then thank you, coach." Zhang Guan said.
After Zhang Guan left, Coach Liu sighed lightly: "Coach, why did you agree to him?" If he really has a physical problem, we can't explain it to the regiment headquarters! ”
"Don't worry, it's definitely not a physical problem." Coach Guo said: "The protection of Zhang Guan by the track and field team is much stronger than ours, you see, the drinking water for Zhang Guan has been delivered, and we have also been stained." ”
Coach Guo shook the metal bottle in his hand, and then said: "Zhang Guan didn't win the ninth gold medal in the relay race yesterday, and he may be disappointed now!" This seems to be the first time that Zhang Guan has not won the gold medal, and it is certain that he is psychologically uncomfortable. He's only 22 years old, he's still a young man, so we'll have to give him a little more time. ”
"I see!" Coach Liu nodded.
Coach Guo continued: "This time the opponent is the United States team, the victory or defeat is not a very important thing for us, the key is to play the style of our men's basketball team, isn't the spirit of the instructions of the Athletics Association also like this?" So, since Zhang Guan wants to take a break in the first half, I think let him take a break! ”
Coach Liu nodded again, and the spirit of the instructions of the Athletics Association on the men's basketball final was conveyed by him personally. The senior management of the Basketball Association also knew that it was impossible for the national team to win this game, so they did not ask the men's basketball team to strive for victory, but just asked to play the style of the Chinese men's basketball team, play a wonderful game, and give an explanation to the Chinese people.
Another requirement is to strive for every player in the team to have the opportunity to play, after all, it is the final of the Olympic Games, for these players, there is such a chance in a lifetime, to play for a few minutes in the final, even if it is to run back and forth without touching the ball, it is considered to have played in the final of the Olympic Games, and there will be no regrets for the players. From this point of view, the management of the basketball association can be regarded as very humane.
……
Today is the last day of the Olympic Games, and for the entire U.S. delegation, they only have two competitions to compete, one is the final of men's water polo and the other is the final of men's basketball. Comparing the two, the water polo finals are naturally overlooked, and people will naturally focus on the latter of a sport that can probably only be seen at the Olympics and a sport where many of the NBA's biggest stars gather.
At Wukesong Gymnasium, the level of security has reached the highest level today, because there are heavyweights who will be there to watch the game.
The head of the U.S. delegation personally attended to watch the Sino-U.S. war, and at the same time the honorary head of the U.S. team, former U.S. President Mr. Lao Bu.
A retired president wouldn't have brought the security level of the Wukesong Stadium to the highest level, but the retired president's son, who is the current president of the United States, was also there to watch the game. Because of this, Wukesong's security level has been raised to the highest level.
On the last day of the Olympic Games, there will be a closing ceremony, and heads of state and dignitaries from all over the world will come here to participate in the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, and President Xiaobu will also come to attend the closing ceremony. According to President Xiaobu's original itinerary, there was no such thing as watching the basketball finals, but since the two sides were determined, President Xiaobu also changed his itinerary to watch this Sino-American battle. And from a certain point of view, watching the match between one's own country and the host team is also considered a kind of diplomatic etiquette.
The other party has a president, according to the convention, we can not send someone to accompany us, so that the guests can enjoy the treatment of the most distinguished guests, and if you want to send someone to accompany you, you must send a person with basically the same status.
In the first Sino-US battle of the men's basketball group stage, President Xiaobu also personally attended the game, and that time he did not send senior personnel to accompany him, so that President Xiaobu had a good time alone, but today is different, today is the men's basketball finals, the importance of the game and the group stage finals can not be said to be the same, people in the United States have come to work, and it is certainly not appropriate for the host not to send people, so the country also sent a comrade at the corresponding level to accompany President Xiaobu to watch the game, which can be regarded as reflecting the host's thoughtful hospitality to the guests.
……
"Good news, boys, our President is going to be there to watch you play! So you're going to have to put on a good show today! U.S. team leader Colangelo said excitedly.
However, the stars below did not react too violently or too excitedly. Colangelo smiled awkwardly, but he was not surprised by the player's reaction.
The current President Xiaobu is not very likable in the United States, he only has more than 30% of the approval rate, which is definitely a very low data, under normal circumstances, the president's approval rate is about 50%, and you must know that his previous term, although there was a little scandal but was very good at the economy, the average approval rate was as high as 66%.
"I voted for Kerry four years ago!" Someone whispered. (To be continued.) )
