Chapter 908: Dream Eight Team VS Dragon Second Team

The purpose of the World Series is to compete for world supremacy.

The World Championships have been played so far, and the most interesting game has finally been released, and in the end, the experts are a little stunned, and the finals are the most water dream team and the strongest dragon team.

Before 2008, no one in the Chinese men's basketball team would have thought that this team could come to this point, and this change came from Chamberlain.

Facts speak louder than words, and the expert media who were not optimistic about the Chinese team in advance were slapped in the face, so the tone changed, and they began to tout the Chinese team: a dark horse rising on the world battlefield.

On September 13, in the locker room of the stadium in Acala, he warned his somewhat excited teammates: "What we have to fight next is the most difficult battle, don't listen to the media outside, we are indeed the strongest in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, and our opponent is indeed the worst in the history of the dream team, but this does not mean that we can win!" ”

Since the Athens Olympics, the unbeaten golden body of the dream team has been broken, and then the 2006 World Championships in Japan even made fans adapt to the scene of the dream team's failure.

However, as long as a team can be linked to the dream team, then he must be a top team in the world.

Before the game, it was an interview with reporters as usual, Chamberlain was surrounded by reporters, he sat in a corner, surrounded by reporters, as soon as the flash was turned on, he couldn't open his eyes, and those cameras and microphones that were raised, if they were used as guns, then even if the United States captured Ben-****, they would not send such a formation.

Little Nelson was a little angry when he saw someone turning on the flash, and said angrily: "Please pay attention to your professionalism, turn on the flash of the players in the pre-game interview, is that what your teacher taught you?" ”

Chamberlain looked at the embarrassed reporter, but he was not angry, he smiled slightly, and said: "I know, it was a journalist friend from the United States who turned on the flash just now, and you really want the dream team to win, right?" But if Durant, Oden, and West knew that you helped me win because you dazzled my eyes with your flash, then I bet they won't be interviewed by you again! ”

NBA stars are so proud, they want to win, but they want to win. That's why James' behavior of looking for Wade and Bosh to huddle in the summer is so shameful.

With this little episode, the reporters converged a lot, and someone asked Chamberlain: "Z, are you nervous now?" ”

Chamberlain smiled and asked, "Why should I be nervous?" ”

The reporter said as a matter of course: "You are about to set foot on the battlefield of the finals, and your opponent is the strongest dream team." ”

Chamberlain smiled brighter and said, "Then you sue me, who among my opponents has beaten me?" If I'm just up against a bunch of losers, what do I have to be nervous about? ”

When Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian heard this, they all gave Chamberlain a thumbs up.

Finally, Chamberlain told reporters: "We not only want to win and win the championship, we also want everyone to respect Chinese basketball!" ”

As the atmosphere quieted as the reporters left the locker room, the previously confident players slowly became nervous, and the reporters' questions reminded them that they were about to face one of the most legendary teams in the history of world basketball.

Although the last time the U.S. team won the World Championships was 16 years ago, in the past three years, they have won the Olympic gold medal and the World Championship gold medal, especially this time to the World Championships, the U.S. team did not send the strongest lineup at all, and it has won the championship without losing, many people think that in this way, the U.S. men's basketball team is bound to dominate the world basketball world.

Little Nelson looked at the players' low feelings, and said: "Boys, I know what you are thinking, just now a reporter said that our opponent is the hegemon of world basketball, right?" ”

"But this is a kind of muse, the so-called hegemon, the word hegemon, is to dominate, the kind of super monarch that no opponent can match! But in fact, many of the games here have been played very hard, and they can make it to the finals, thanks to many teams who did not send the main team, otherwise, the dream team will become a nightmare team again! ”

That being said, Nelson Jr. himself has no confidence because he doesn't have the confidence to win against his opponent, the old Kshaszewski.

At the 2008 Olympics, Nelson Jr. led the team to unprecedented glory, but as the expert fans calmed down and analyzed the finals, they began to criticize Nelson Jr.

Indeed, except for Chamberlain and Yao Ming, the others of the Chinese team cannot be compared with the Dream Team, but they are not as good as the lineup and tactics, and Nelson Jr. is not as good as Lao K.

If you ask fans who is the coach of Dream Nine, most people may say Old K, or Coach K, and some say that K is handsome, but few people can say his name completely, in fact, Old K's full name is Mike Shashewski.

In fact, as early as 1984, Shashewski was the head coach of the dream team. After 26 years, he is still the head coach of the Dream Team, and the current head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team in 1984 is still a hairy boy who follows the old Nelson's ass to learn tactics.

Coach K is an evergreen tree in American basketball, and on April 6, 2010, under the leadership of K Lao, Duke University defeated Butler University 61-59 to win the 2010 NCAA championship, and this year happens to be K's 30th year at Duke University.

Come to think of it, 30 years of coaching a team is not something that ordinary people can do.

Coach K has been the soul and signature of Duke University for 30 years, leading the team to four NCAA championships, including 1991, 1992 and 2001.

K. Sr. was born in Chicago on February 13, 1947, to Polish-American parents. He spent his high school years at Webb High School in Chicago.

He went on to attend the West Point Army Military Academy, graduating in 1969, during which time he studied basketball for three years and played under NCAA coach Bob Knight.

In the 1968-69 season, as captain of the Army basketball team, he led the team to the National Invitational Championship at Madison Square Garden in New York.

He served in the Army from 1969 to 1974 and became a coach for the Army basketball team. In 1976, he resigned to join his mentor, Bobby Knight, as an assistant coach at Indiana State University.

In 1980, Coach K became the head coach of Duke University, and it has been 30 years since then. Over the past 27 years, the Duke Blues have reached the NCAA Championship 26 times, and from 1996 to 2010, they reached the NCAA Championship 15 times in a row.

In addition, he has the most NCAA tournament wins of any active coach, with a 77-22 record.

DURING HIS TENURE, DUKE REACHED THE FINAL-FOUR 11 TIMES AND WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP 4 TIMES. He has won 868 games in his entire collegiate career, the most of any active coach.

His stellar record has caught the attention of the NBA, but he has never left the college scene. This summer, after leading Duke to win the championship, there was even news that the Nets were interested in hiring him to coach, and the price was even opened to an annual salary of $12 million to $15 million, but Lao K was never moved.

Aside from Duke, the only one who can please him is the American Basketball Association.

In the 1984 and 1992 Olympics, the U.S. team won the eventual championship, and the old K was the assistant coach of the U.S. team. In 1987, he became the coach of the United States for the first time, leading the team to a silver medal at the World Championships, and he led the United States to a bronze medal at the 1990 World Championships.

In 2005, after a lapse of 13 years, the elder K became the head coach of the United States again, and this time he began to bring the United States to the top of the world, making the United States the hegemon of the world again.

In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, he led the Mengba all the way through the test and won the final championship.

Looking back at the course of this World Championships, Mengjiu has always come through in doubts. The outside world has always said that they lack stars, that they are young, that they have no experience.

After narrowly beating Brazil by just two points in the group stage, the U.S. team drew a lot of criticism. But Lao K has been unmoved, and has concentrated on leading the American team to the top of the world step by step.

It can be said that this is a competition that allows Lao K to fully reflect his personal coaching ability and charm. At the time of the 08 Beijing Olympics, there are too many big names in the team, and Coach K can save a lot of heart.

But this session is different, most of the players are very young and lack experience in international competitions, so it is the turn of Lao K to scold Fang Xuan and point out the country.

In this World Championships, Lao K's concept of leading the team is very simple, it is one word, fast, the key is defense + fast attack.

As the saying goes, martial arts in the world are only fast and unbreakable. Look at this American team, it is all built around this word, sometimes Oden can't play the starter, the starting center is Odom to make a cameo, and Durant is arranged to be a big forward.

Why is this happening? Chamberlain and Nelson Jr. have both analyzed that as long as the dream team takes Oden + Durant as the core, partners with three stars at will, and reaches the finals, it will be safe.

So why did Lao K insist on playing fast attack with a small lineup?

In addition, Lao K also invited Nelson Sr. to be an assistant coach, and the outside world said that the reason for this invitation was because Lao K was worried that he would not be able to control West.

However, this is actually unreasonable, long before the final list of the World Championships was decided, Lao K invited Nelson Sr. to help him, and at that time, West still played the role of accompanying the prince to study in the dream team training camp.

Little Nelson knows why, no one knows his dad better than him, what is Old Nelson famous for? Aggro! Run-and-boom!

The reason why Lao K invited him to be an assistant coach was to ask Nelson Sr. to help him build a strongest fast-break lineup.

And now, his goal has been achieved, and the old Nelson is a little helpless to enter the dream team coaching staff, because when the old Nelson was the head coach of the dream second team, the assistant coach was the old K, and this time he returned the favor.

Chamberlain noticed Little Nelson's bitter expression, and said sympathetically: "Little BOSS, I'm about to fight against the old monster K, do you feel very painful?" ”

Chamberlain likes to call old Nelson the boss, so he calls the little Nelson mini-boss.

Little Nelson smiled bitterly: "Actually, an old K, I'm not too scared, I'm even more afraid, and the old man in my family, the old K is an old monster, so what is he?" A thousand-year-old demon? ”

Chamberlain patted Little Nelson on the shoulder, and Yi Jianlian asked worriedly: "Coach Old Nelson, will you help Old K deal with us?" ”

Yao Ming sighed and said to Yi Jianlian: "Let me tell you a piece of the past, in the nineties, the old Nelson was invited to be the head coach of Lithuania, but in the World Championships that year, Lithuania almost knocked out the dream team, the reason why the old Nelson did not command the players to play in the fourth quarter was because he considered that if he commanded a foreign mercenary to kill his country's team, he would really have no face to return to China in the future." ”

"Fortunately, this time the old man is not the head coach, and now he is much more shameless than he was twenty years ago, so this time, the old man will not interfere too much." Chamberlain comforted little Nelson.

Little Nelson struggled to avoid the other players, drew a quick cross on his chest, and now he could only pray for God to bless.
