The bus of the Dream Eight team had been in the parking lot of the hotel for a long time, and a tall figure hurriedly ran over and boarded the bus. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This big man is none other than Dwight Howard.

"Dwight, you're late!" D'Antoni, assistant coach of the U.S. team, spoke.

Howard scratched his head, grinned, and said, "Coach, I'm sorry, my phone was left in the room, so I went back again." ”

"Alright, let's get back to our seats!" D'Antoni apparently didn't believe Howard's claims, but he didn't bother with Howard either.

Howard returned to his seat, and Reed, who was behind him, poked his head over and asked in a low voice, "Dwight, that South African chick from last night seemed to be hot?" I heard that you are a hockey player, did you turn you into a soft-footed shrimp? ”

"Hey, that's great! But it's not as good as the Brazilian girl the night before yesterday, and the one who played beach volleyball the night before, that's really exciting! Howard said heartlessly.

There are some playboys among the NBA stars, such as Harden, the most well-known nightclub expert in the future, and Durant, a schoolbag boy who was damaged by Harden, Griffin, Jordan Jr., Irving, Rose, etc., are also changing women such as changing clothes, and even several stars have brought green hats to their teammates.

However, most of the members of the current American team are married people with families and jobs, or former prodigal sons have turned back. If you talk about the real "about running master", it should be Howard. Howard is like a big kid, and he's also very popular, but now at just 23 years old, he already has several illegitimate children, which is not news in the NBA. And Howard came to participate in the Olympics, in the face of female athletes from all over the world, of course he would not be indifferent, and it was essential for Howard to use the interval between games to find beautiful women.

A group of young and vigorous athletes, each of whom is a guy with excessive hormone secretion, get together, how can some passionate things not happen, so it is already a practice for the organizers of the Olympic Games every year to prepare condoms for athletes, such as the London Olympics, the organizers prepare according to an average of 15 condoms per athlete, but they have been distributed five days before the start of the competition.

Compared with some unknown athletes in other countries, Howard, an NBA basketball superstar, is obviously more popular with female athletes from all over the world, although the American team lives in a five-star hotel, but Howard always goes to the parties held by those Olympic athletes, and always brings back a few girls. A few days ago, Howard was relatively restrained, but now that the Olympics are coming to an end, Howard has let go a lot, and all kinds of "appointments" have been made. And Howard was late today, not because he forgot to bring his phone, but because he lingered in bed for too long.

Several other players of the American team, although not as daily as Howard, are not idle, Kobe, James, Anthony, Wade and other superstars have gone to participate in the sponsor's activities, and the sponsors have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the players in endorsement fees, so they naturally want to ask for enough returns, so they don't care that this will affect the player's training! So these superstars were also busy yesterday, standing on the platform for sponsors, signing autographs for fans, etc.

In particular, Kidd, the captain of the U.S. team, signed a Chinese brand this year, so his activities were the most, and the sponsor was originally going to announce it after the Olympics, but this time the Olympic final happened to be a Sino-American battle, and the sponsor could not miss this great opportunity for publicity, so a signing ceremony was held for Kidd the day before the Sino-American war. The publicity was great, but Kidd was also busy from morning to night, without a moment of rest.

If it is placed in other teams, it is definitely not allowed to attend the sponsor's event before the game is finished, and the Chinese team will definitely be punished, but the United States team, not only will not be punished, and even the coaching staff will adjust the training plan according to the time of the sponsor's event.

The U.S. men's basketball team came to participate in the Olympic Games, and all food, housing, transportation and other products were contracted by sponsors, not only that, but the previous training of the U.S. men's basketball team in China and warm-up games around the world were also spent by sponsors, and the relationship between the U.S. men's basketball team and sponsors is also a long-term cooperative relationship. Americans still understand the principle of having a short mouth and a short hand.

The U.S. team is a group of big-name stars, with a salary of one or two million a year, and they are also local tyrants in the United States. When a group of local tycoons gather to play games, they must enjoy the best conditions, and if the conditions are not good, these big-name stars may not necessarily want to come, so the American team also needs these sponsors.

This is also the rule of commercial sports, whether it is athletes or coaches, they have to bow their heads to money, not only to bow their heads, but also to greet them with a smile, hoping that sponsors can do as much as possible.

Of course, the other aspect is because the next opponent of the U.S. men's basketball team is the Chinese team. If it were Spain or Argentina, the American team would definitely prepare seriously, but in the face of the Chinese team, the American team, from the head coach to the end of the bench, felt that they did not pay attention to it, and they felt that they could win by playing casually, and the difference was how many points they would win. Even if you participate in a sponsor event, it will not affect the outcome of the next day's competition.

Overall, the current American Dream Team is not in their best condition, whether it is participating in sponsorship events or asking for 300 rounds of beautiful women, it is a very draining thing. Perhaps the youngest of the twelve players is Prince, who is not a big star and doesn't have to attend sponsorship events all day; He is not a heartthrob like Howard, and that big long face is obviously not the type that women like, so he stays in the hotel honestly, full of energy and physical strength.

……

In stark contrast, the Chinese men's basketball team, all day yesterday, except for Zhang Guan, who was going to participate in the 4 x 100 meter competition, the other players were soaked in the training hall, and after dinner, they practiced for more than two hours.

The men's basketball team in the first game of this Olympic Games is to face the American Dream Team, of course, there is no suspense to lose the game, it was only the group stage, the men's basketball team is still working hard to qualify for the group, but this game is the final of the Olympic Games, for the players, even if they can't win the American team, they must play their best, because the people of the whole country and even the whole world are watching them.

It's not just a pressure, it's a motivation. The final of the Olympic Games is an unprecedented achievement for the men's national basketball team, and everyone is extremely excited to think of the Olympic finals when they appear, and for them, this moment may be the most glorious moment of their lives.

At this moment, a kind of excitement permeates the entire men's national basketball team, whether it is the athlete or the members of the coaching staff, everyone is like a newborn calf, they have no fear in their hearts, they are more impulsive and expectant, looking forward to the moment of the Olympic finals.

And for Zhang Guan, this is also his last fight in this Olympic Games! (To be continued.) )
