When Zhuang Fei and D'Antoni came to the Timberwolves team training hall, the Timberwolves players had already come, originally after playing the first round of the playoffs yesterday Zhuang Fei gave them a half-day off, and this morning the team training was canceled, but in the end, these Timberwolves players still came to train on time, and at the same time, the Timberwolves players were a little curious about such a group of special guests who appeared in the training hall today, so these Timberwolves players surrounded Wang Zhizhi and asked him non-stop, Wang Zhizhi has no problem with his English now, so his relationship with his teammates is already very harmonious.

"Haha, Xiao Zhuang" When Zhuang Fei and D'Antoni walked in the door, all the people in the training hall looked at Zhuang Fei, and those players from China also looked at this basketball coach who was 'mythical' in China with a curious face, and as the leader of the Chinese team this time, Li Yuanwei also waved his arms to Zhuang Fei enthusiastically, completely lacking the power of facing the players in the past, as if he was afraid that Zhuang Fei would not see him.

Zhuang Fei noticed that Deputy Director Li, who had driven him up, but Zhuang Fei only smiled and nodded to him, and then turned his eyes all to the little giant who was still immature, but his height was already standing out from the crowd, Yao Ming, at this time Yao Ming was also secretly observing Zhuang Fei, Yao Ming is a fan of Zhuang Fei, and he is also the kind of die-hard fan, Yao Ming has always regarded Wang Zhizhi as his idol and goal, It can be said that since Wang Zhizhi entered the NBA, he has been watching Wang Zhizhi's development all the time, and Yao Ming has been able to see Wang Zhizhi's back when he was in China, and he feels that he is very close to Wang Zhizhi. But when Wang Zhizhi left the NBA in China, Yao Ming once again found that Wang Zhizhi's growth rate exceeded his imagination, and the gap that was already very close became distant again, he also had the opportunity to participate in the NBA draft last year, but under the persuasion of the Shanghai team and the Shanghai Sports Bureau, he finally stayed in China, and he himself also had the intention of coming to the NBA after winning a CBA championship, but this year's CBA finally Shanghai lost 2-3. I thought that I hadn't even reached the top in China yet. And Wang Zhizhi has entered the NBA All-Star under the tutelage of Zhuang Fei, and Yao Ming once thought in a dream that he would enter the NBA and join the Timberwolves. The scene of becoming Zhuang Fei's disciple, every time he thinks of this, Yao Ming will wake up from a dream with a smile, and this time he plans to ask Zhuang Fei for advice when he comes to Minnesota with the team. Now seeing that his idol is staring at him, Yao Ming also subconsciously blushed, and then lowered his head.

"Xiao Zhuang, let me introduce to you, this is the head coach of our team, Jiang Xingquan, Jiang Gui, Jiang Gui is the best head coach in China, Xiao Zhuang is the best head coach in the world, and now the two famous coaches of our country are gathered" Li Yuanwei smiled and took Zhuang Fei's hand and said enthusiastically.

"Hello Director Jiang. "Zhuang Fei said to the Chinese head coach with a smile, Zhuang Fei's appearance was very peaceful, without a trace of arrogance, Director Li had told him before coming here, hoping to put down his body when he saw Zhuang Fei. He was originally reluctant, but finally agreed, after all, Zhuang Fei is international-level, although he is not very old, but it is indeed worth him to let go of his figure, but now it seems that this young head coach has no intention of showing his tall image. On the contrary, it is very polite.

"Hello" Director Jiang replied a little stunned, and Director Li frowned as he looked at the old Chinese handsome. However, seeing that Zhuang Fei was still smiling, he let go of the unhappiness in his heart without saying anything. Zhuang Fei was not unhappy with Director Jiang, because Director Jiang was the head coach of the Zhejiang team in his previous life, and Zhuang Fei was only a player of the youth team at that time, in fact, among the twelve players of the Chinese team this time, Zhuang Fei also saw his other head coach of the Zhejiang team in his previous life, Zheng Wu. However, Zheng Wu is still a player. After Zhuang Fei and Director Jiang said hello, they looked at this group of Chinese players from afar, there are many famous figures in Zhuang Fei's previous life, such as Yao Ming, Battle, Liu Yudong and Hu Weidong, the four god-level figures in Chinese basketball, in addition to these four, there are also some people like Li Xiaoyong, Guo Shiqiang, Sun Jun, Li Qun, Zhang Jinsong, Li Nan, etc., Zhuang Fei basically knows, these people are the golden generation of Chinese basketball, Zhuang Fei has always hoped to enter the national team as a player in his previous life, Then led the national team to the semi-finals of the World Championships or the Olympic Games, because these golden generation of players have led the Chinese team to the quarterfinals of the World Championships and the Olympic Games, so Zhuang Fei's goal in his dream is to surpass these characters, it can be said that these people have always been Zhuang Fei's object in his previous life. …,

"Xiao Zhuang, the training facilities of the NBA team are really good, and the trainers here are also very professional, there is really no comparison in China" Just when Zhuang Fei was observing the Chinese players, Director Li beside him began to pretend to be an 'expert'.

"Director Li knows a lot about these" Zhuang Fei smiled a little strangely and looked at him, which made Director Li's face blush, and he scratched his head in embarrassment, "Where, where", and Director Jiang next to Director Li was a look of contempt, this is what he just said, and now it has been stolen by this Director Li intact.

Coach Jiang is indeed very emotional about the training environment of the NBA team, it can be said that this time he traveled to the United States with great confidence, and his goal for this Olympic trip is not low, the last Olympic Games Chinese blue man entered the quarterfinals, this time his goal is the top four, he has this confidence, now the golden generation is still at its peak, coupled with the rise of Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming, the Chinese team should go further.

"Coach Zhuang, can you let the Timberwolves play a practice game with the Chinese team" Jiang Xingquan stared at Zhuang Fei with a fierce eye, he needed to test the strength of his team with the strongest team in the NBA. Zhuang Fei was talking and laughing with Director Li, at this time, hearing that the head coach of his previous life had this interest, Zhuang Fei also stopped, and then looked at him quietly, and Director Li on Zhuang Fei's side had a little unbearable on his face, he was originally talking to Zhuang Fei, and he felt that his relationship with Zhuang Fei had also taken a step forward, and now he was naturally very unhappy to be interrupted.

"Old Jiang. What do you mean by this, Xiaozhuang is busy now, how can I have the kung fu to play with you with these things" Director Li said with an unhappy face, Director Jiang is now hanging a position as vice chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, and he is at the same level, although he is dissatisfied, Director Li did not scold. Just reminded him a little, but this Director Jiang didn't appreciate it at all, and still stared at Zhuang Fei with burning eyes. This also made this Director Li very embarrassed.

"Xiao Zhuang. You see this? Director Li asked in a low voice.

"No problem, the Chinese team just came yesterday, and there is no problem with the time difference. Do you want to wait any longer? Zhuang Fei was still smiling, and Director Jiang was stunned again, he really didn't expect Zhuang Fei to agree so easily, even Director Li on the side.

"Don't wait any longer, let's start now, but I want Dazhi to return to the team, what do you think?" Director Jiang looked at Zhuang Fei excitedly, but Zhuang Fei smiled and nodded, it didn't hurt to go back.

When Zhuang Fei decided to let the Timberwolves players have a warm-up game with the Chinese national team, the Timberwolves players were also very excited. They are not tired now, after all, they are young and energetic, and coupled with Zhuang Fei's rotation in the late regular season of this season, these people are now full of energy. Originally, they were also curious about the strength of this team from the manager's hometown, but now they can verify it themselves.

"It's good for everyone to relax and play normally, pay attention to protect themselves, and don't get hurt" This is Zhuang Fei's only arrangement before the game, and on the Chinese team, Director Jiang is much more cautious, and he talked to those Chinese players for a long time. It was clear that the coach was taking this practice match very seriously. In the past, the Chinese team also went abroad to train, and all kinds of star teams played a lot, but in the end, they found that those 'star teams' were like that at all, and now because of Zhuang Fei, they can compete with the strongest teams in the world, which is definitely an unavoidable thing. How could Director Jiang not be cautious?

"Zhuang, it's really okay to do this" D'Antoni asked with some concern, after all, there is a playoff game with the Kings tomorrow, although there is no problem with the Timberwolves and the Kings defeating the Kings, but in D'Antoni's opinion, there is no need for such a practice game now. …,

"I don't think it matters if everyone plays" Just when Zhuang Fei wanted to answer D'Antoni's words, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Zhuang Fei looked back and saw that the team owner Glenn Taylor had already come in accompanied by McHale, and he was followed by a group of Chinese reporters such as Su Huan and Yang Yi. Seeing this scene, Zhuang Fei's brows furrowed again.

"Mr. Glenn, I remember that when the team was training, reporters were not allowed to come in without my permission," Zhuang Fei looked at the excited Glenn Taylor coldly and said, Glenn Taylor, who was still excited just now, heard Zhuang Fei's cold voice, his back couldn't help but cold, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Zhuang, just this time, just this time, don't take it as an example, what do you think" Glenn Taylor hurriedly sneered at Zhuang Fei, at this time McHale and a group of Chinese reporters saw the funny scene of this boss and laughed in their hearts, it is strange to be a boss to do this, but more Chinese reporters have more respect for Zhuang Fei, and in the same way, it is also a great wonder to be a coach to do this.

Zhuang Fei looked at the flattering Glenn Taylor and snorted coldly and then turned his head, while Glenn Taylor was secretly relieved, it seems that Zhuang Fei still gave him face.

The appearance of Glenn Taylor's large team obviously surprised the players of the Chinese team and the Timberwolves, and it is obvious that there are also cameras in this large team, which also makes these originally somewhat casual players official, which also makes this game a lot more on track.

The referee of this game is another assistant coach of the team, Green, and Zhuang Fei is standing on one side with D'Antoni, and the other is Glenn Taylor and his party are standing behind Zhuang Fei, the Timberwolves lineup in this game is Garnett, Xiao O, Pierce, Jackson and Nash, this is all on the line, Zhuang Fei did not intend to fool his compatriots.

"Zhuang, that big man is at least 2.20 meters or more, it's really tall, but the speed of such a tall man shouldn't be like this, Jermaine may bully him fiercely" D'Antoni looked at Yao Ming, who was jumping with Garnett, and said with a smile, he didn't know much about the strength of this Chinese team, but at a glance, the big man was still the most eye-catching.

"Really? This is not necessarily" Zhuang Fei said with a smile, Xiao Ao and Yao Ming? Both people have a hard time dealing with each other.

In terms of strength, it is impossible for the Chinese team to compete with the Timberwolves. This is almost everyone's consensus, but the process of this game surprised everyone, the Timberwolves only led by five points at the end of the first half of this game, especially the play of the tallest young player of the Chinese team in this game made D'Antoni's mouth closed in surprise.

"Here we go again!" D'Antoni looked at Yao Ming in surprise again, at this time Yao Ming once again turned his back to Xiao Ao under the left basket to ask for the ball, and then Yao Ming's head and shoulders shook left and right a few times to deceive Xiao Ao, Xiao Ao once again thought that Yao Ming was going to break through. But in the end, Yao Ming still turned around and jumped, and then hit a two-point shot, this is not the first time Yao Ming has played Xiao Ao like this. Xiao Ao loves to eat the feints of his opponents, but even if Xiao Ao is a fool, he will not be deceived by the same feints in a row, but this big Chinese man can really break through after shaking his head. This makes Xiao Ao very painful, and in addition to these flexible shakes and feints, the big man's mid-range is also very beautiful, which is also the main reason why the Chinese team was able to bite the Timberwolves in the first half of this game, of course, Wang Zhizhi's performance is also very good, the Chinese team in addition to these two big inside lines make the Timberwolves a little tricky, other players are just very ordinary.

"Now you don't think Jermaine can beat him, right" Zhuang Fei said with a smile, while D'Antoni smiled wryly, and then said with bright eyes: "Zhuang, this big man will be terrible in the future." With his height talent combined with good speed and flexibility, as well as such a good touch and basic skills under the basket, he now has the strength to enter the NBA"...,

"Yes" Zhuang Fei also nodded, in fact, he knew that some teams were paying attention to this big Chinese man. Both NBA coaches and scouts have a rather vicious eye. In fact, in Zhuang Fei's opinion, the current Yao Ming still has enough shortcomings. It can't be compared with the first killer of the interior after 2005, but even so, Yao Ming at this time has been able to see some prototypes, in fact, in 1998, Zhuang Fei knew that there were many NBA teams staring at this giant, although they may not think that this young Chinese center can have the ability to become a superstar, but there is no doubt that this is a very useful interior line. Now the international center is becoming more and more popular in the NBA, the basic skills of the international center are more solid than the basic skills of the American center, although the athleticism is insufficient but the height has an advantage, the goal of the NBA has always been in Europe, but with the rise of Wang Zhizhi this season, their eyes are once again on Asia and China, although Wang Zhizhi is not a big explosion this season, but it is definitely worthy of his value, and now the Timberwolves have received several offers for Wang Zhizhi, But before Zhuang Fei refused, he was rejected by the team owner, Wang Zhizhi and Garnett plus Pierce, these three people are not for sale and cash cow in Glenn Taylor's heart.

"But his physical strength is very problematic, just playing a first half, his physical strength has decreased so quickly, it seems that height is also good for him" D'Antoni sighed again, after the start of the second half, Yao Ming obviously felt that his feet were no longer as good as the first half, but the Chinese big man was still able to find a way to overcome it, his mid-to-long-range shooting increased a little, and the shooting rate was still very good.

After the Chinese team maintained a good score in the first half of this game, Zhuang Fei made adjustments to the Timberwolves in the second half, such as Yao Ming, Zhuang Fei specially instructed Xiaoao to use the front defense to prevent Yao Ming from receiving the ball, and for the outside defense of the Timberwolves, Zhuang Fei let them press all over the court, originally Nash has always been a defensive colander, but today when he defended Guo Shiqiang, he found enough confidence, Nash, who has been suffering physically, did not suffer physically. This put the defensive skills he learned from Bowen to use, and it was difficult for the Chinese team to score a single goal after the Timberwolves pressed and circled forward, which was the biggest gap between them and the Timberwolves, and this gap was almost irreparable.

At the end of the game, the Timberwolves won the Chinese team 120-70 by 50 points, the game was only 40 minutes, the Chinese team scored 45 points in the first half, and the Chinese team only scored 25 points in the second half, Yao Ming, who Zhuang Fei has been paying attention to, scored 28 points and 12 rebounds in this game, 20 of the 28 points were scored in the first half, and the Chinese team accounted for 50 points in the entire 70 points.

"Coach Jiang, it seems that if the Chinese team wants to go further in the Olympics, it can only make more use of these two inside lines," Zhuang Fei said to the somewhat lost Director Jiang after the game, originally he still had a trace of the heart to compete with the Timberwolves after the game, but after the second half, this determination was completely defeated. Of course, he understands what Zhuang Fei meant, these external lines of China are unreliable when encountering strong opponents, and only the internal lines that China can truly call world-class are the internal lines.

Just when Zhuang Fei and Director Jiang finished talking and were about to return to the Timberwolves bench, Yao Ming came over with a pen and a Chinese team jersey.

"Mr. Zhuang, can you sign it for me?" Yao Ming looked down at Zhuang Fei with some subtlety, Zhuang Fei did not refuse, but just smiled at Yao Ming, and then picked up the pen and wrote a line of Chinese characters above Yao Ming's ball.

"To the future NBA No. 1 center Yao Ming" (to be continued) RQ
