Chapter 243: The Olympic Village

(Yesterday there was something to do.,I didn't care about the update.,I'm sorry.,Make up one more chapter today.,Tomorrow I'm making up a chapter) The warm-up game of the Chinese men's basketball team is not over.,The 2012 Stankovic Cup Intercontinental Basketball Tournament is the biggest warm-up game for the Olympic Games.,Of course, China also actively participated.,This cup is not a heavyweight game in the world.,But before the Olympics, it was also a relatively famous small game.。

Deng Huade led the national team to the first game of the Stankovic Cup continental basketball tournament on July 6, against Tunisia, a country with not very good basketball atmosphere, but even so, Tunisia is also the champion team of African basketball.

In this game, China finally defeated Tunisia 85-54, and Wang Meng, who was highly anticipated by Chinese fans, unexpectedly only played two minutes in this game, played a soy sauce, scored a three-pointer and then handed out an assist, and then sat obediently on the sidelines and looked lively, without particularly big achievements.

For this situation, most Chinese fans take it for granted, when facing a weak team like Tunisia, even Yi Jianlian's playing time has been reduced a lot, not to mention Wang Meng? There is no game that Wang Meng can win, so why let Wang Meng play to consume physical strength?

The next few games, including July 7 against Australia, July 8 against Russia, July 10 again against Australia to win the championship, Wang Meng did not play for a long time, four games, a total of total, Wang Meng's playing time is less than ten minutes, although China has won all of them, but some fans are not a little confused.

"Why don't you let Wang Meng play?" This has become something that everyone is curious about, and everyone is looking forward to Wang Meng's performance in international competitions, but the men's basketball team has been secretive about Wang Meng, and many fans said they didn't understand this situation. "Is it because Wang Meng and head coach Deng Huade are at odds?"

Fans have all kinds of questions, reporters have all kinds of interviews, but the players and head coach Deng Huade of the national team have not mentioned Wang Meng, even if they encounter these topics, they always use other words to prevaricate the past, as for Wang Meng, many reporters found that they couldn't find Wang Meng at all, the National Sports Training Center does not allow reporters to enter the interview, this group of reporters can only wait for Wang Meng outside, but they have been squatting for n years in a row, and they have never seen Wang Meng come out.

"Has this guy been living in the training gym?" Reporters speculated, but there was nothing to be done.

After winning the Si Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team immediately announced the team's 12-man squad, Han Dejun, Zhai Xiaochuan, Zhang Bo, Wang Zhelin, Su Wei, Guo Allen and Zhang Zhaoxu were defeated. It would be forgivable if the first few people were defeated, but what is surprising is that Zhang Zhaoxu, who is one of the backbones of the men's basketball team, was also brushed off, which surprised many people, and what surprised them even more was that in the Chinese 12-man squad, a name that they were extremely familiar with appeared.

Yao!

The backbone of the men's basketball team, I thought that I would never see this big man on the court again in the future, but now he appears in the 12-man squad.

Almost at the same time as the list was announced on the same day, the whole of China was boiling, and countless reporters broke into the national team training ground, frantically asking head coach Deng Huade if Yao Ming would be able to play.

In this regard, Deng Huade has already had a countermeasure, "Whether Yao Ming can play or not, I think all excellent doctors know, needless to say, why did I put him in the squad?" The reason is very simple, he is the greatest player in China, as a player who has made Chinese basketball history, I think he needs to be given enough respect and respect, even if he can't play now, I think he should be in the squad for the London Olympics, I have talked to the people in the basketball association about this, and they agreed to that. ”

Hearing Deng Huade's words, Chinese fans were a little disappointed, originally thought that Yao Ming had recovered, but they didn't expect to just treat Yao Ming as the mascot of the court, the mascot is the mascot, at least it is enough to see this big man on the field, even if it is just off the field.

The 12-member roster of the Chinese basketball team is as follows, Wang Meng, Yao Ming, Chen Jianghua, Ding Jinhui, Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, Yi Li, Zhang Zhaoxu, Zhou Peng, Zhu Fangyu.

After the 12-man squad was announced, the Chinese team had two warm-up matches, both of which were held in Poland, and after playing in Poland, the Chinese team would fly directly to London to participate in the Olympic Games.

In the two games in Poland, the first Poland lost to the Chinese team, Wang Meng continued his soy sauce career, for him, there is no point in playing now, anyway, he can win the game without playing the Chinese team, this game, Yao Ming also participated in the exhibition with the team, Yao Ming in a suit caused many Chinese fans who came to Poland with the Chinese men's basketball team to watch the game.

In the second game, Wang Meng played a little more time, four minutes, but Yi Jianlian was suspended in this game, and the Chinese team was finally reversed by Poland.

At this point, all the warm-up games of the Chinese men's national basketball team before the London Olympics have ended, and the next thing left is the Olympic Games.

After playing Poland, the men's basketball team flew directly to the Olympic Village in London, where the Olympic Games were held.

Seriously, the London Olympics are too bad, this is Wang Meng's first idea when he came to London, and China regards the Olympics as a baby, London, a place that has hosted the Olympic Games many times, has been very accustomed to the Olympic Games, so all preparations for the Olympic Games give Wang Meng a very indifferent feeling.

Moreover, the population of the United Kingdom is so small that unlike the Yenching Olympics, there are not many volunteers in London.

After arriving at the Olympic Village, Wang Meng was even more disappointed, where is it like a place for world-class athletes? It's clearly the away locker room in the NBA arena.

The NBA's away locker room is famous all over the world, except for the Mavericks' away locker room, no team's away locker room is good, and some teams' locker room doesn't even have a place to sit, you can imagine how dirty and messy it is.

"This is the legendary Olympic Village?" Wang Meng looked at these rooms that were similar to university dormitories with great disappointment, and they were so dilapidated that they didn't even have a computer, only a TV.

Yao Ming patted Wang Meng on the shoulder and said: "You can only regret that you haven't participated in the Yanjing Olympics. ”

"Forget it." Wang Meng casually threw the duffel bag on the bed, "Let's go out and see if there's anything fun in a while." ”

Two or three days after coming to the Olympic Village, other athletes also came to the Olympic Village one after another, where Wang Meng met many stars he had only seen on TV before.

For example, Liu Xiang of track and field, Usain Bolt, the prince of diving, Li Na, the queen of Chinese tennis, Wang Hao and Zhang Jike of the table tennis dream team, Wang Meng all asked for autographs with them, to Wang Meng's surprise, many of them also asked Wang Meng for autographs, and Wang Meng found that unconsciously, his status and influence in China were not weaker than these famous sports players.

Of course, basketball teams from other countries are also arriving.

It is worth mentioning that in the American basketball dream team, there is also a teammate of Wang Meng, Oden, this guy has performed very well recently, and was also included in the qualifiers, Oden with his excellent play, defeated Tyson Chandler, who is also a qualifier, and this year's champion Anthony Davis, became the backup center of the American Dream Team.

When Oden arrived at the Olympic Village, he didn't have time to say hello to Wang Meng, so he impatiently followed James Wade Anthony and others to the nightclub to play.

This is also a huge difference between the United States and China, the Chinese national team strictly prohibits players from going out to the Olympic Village during the Olympic Games, you can go out if you want, but you can only go to famous attractions like Big Ben, want to go to nightclubs? Neither did the door.
