"Our best player is finally back!"

"Welcome Doon home!"

As soon as Doon got off the plane, he was greeted by a group of people from the basketball center who came to pick him up.

"Hello director, good leaders."

Doon stepped forward to say hello, and then prepared to follow their arrangement and leave the capital airport.

However, I didn't go far before I heard the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, including many fans wearing the No. 31 jersey of the Chicago Bulls, Doon.

To this end, Doon also specially informed his entourage to take out his FMVP trophy and a replica of the miniature championship trophy from his bag and display it in public.

Fortunately, the basketball center has been prepared and arranged a lot of security guards, so there is no big mess.

However, Doon was also reminded by the basketball management center, and quickly got in the car and left the airport.

When you arrive at the hotel, you will inevitably have a meal, a few meetings, and talk about something.

It is also because Doon has become famous, and the basketball management center has asked Doane, so everything went relatively smoothly.

Although the basketball center wanted Doon to participate in the World Championship warm-up game, in the end it could only accept Doon's conditions - only to play the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Champions Cup, and only play the first half.

The Stankovic Continental Basketball Champions Cup is one of the highest-level official international basketball tournaments held in China.

Now that Doon, as the leading Chinese basketball player, he still has to give a little face.

However, the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Championship Cup is not very valuable, and for Doon it is like a wild ball.

However, the other players who participated in the game took this very seriously, considering that the referees of the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Champions Cup are not like the referees of the NBA, and Doon is not protected by a superstar whistle, so the "intensity" of the game may be greater than that of the NBA.

There's no way Doon could risk an injury and be fully involved in this kind of game.

What's more, this year's Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Champions Cup is just the last round of warm-up games before the start of the World Championships.

To prepare for the World Championships, Doon can find his condition through intensive training, and then train in the group stage of the World Championships, and go all out to help the men's basketball team strive for better results.

What's more, the holding and development of any large-scale sports event contains a lot of commercial value, and there are quite large and quite many interest groups behind it.

Doon returned to China to play ball to win glory for the country, not to be a free spokesperson for certain interests.

Before returning home, Doon sent someone to inquire about the news.

As early as last year, China Basketball lost 26 million in four years because of taking over the CBA, forcing the basketball management center to throw the burden of the CBA to other companies to operate and take care of, in an attempt to bring the CBA back to life, and even make a certain profit.

Infront and the NBA value the commercial value of the '08 Olympics and are interested in taking over.

Because the former wants to explore the Chinese market, it has opened a sky-high contract of 15 million US dollars for 3 years.

The operating expenses of one year are more than the total losses of previous years, and the basketball management center naturally has no reason not to agree.

In addition, the newly established China Infront also officially occupies 51% of the shares, as long as China Infront can make a profit, it can make more money.

Correspondingly, Infront has also acquired the rights to host and operate various basketball tournaments including the CBA, men's and women's basketball, and the Stankovic Continental Basketball Champions Cup.

Originally, Infront China's coming to power would be a good start, and Infront funded the men's basketball team to go to Europe for training, cultivate and exercise the various abilities of the men's basketball team, and improve the competitiveness of the World Championships.

However, the first batch of men's basketball training camps is full of a large number of old and slow CBA exploits, and the two months of European training have continued to fail miserably, so angry that the head coach of the men's basketball team Younas made a "Younas Nine Questions" article to discuss the basketball management.

If it weren't for Wang Zhizhi, Yao Ming, and Du En returning to China one after another, the leaders of the basketball management center would have to hide from media reporters!

It is also because the European training has exposed the serious shortcomings of the CBA and the men's basketball team, and Infront has also put pressure on the basketball management in order to make a profit, and Dune, Yao Ming, and Wang Zhizhi have become the last life-saving fairy grass.

Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi have the confidence to say that they will not play in the European training match, and they will not even play the Sino-US confrontation match before the start of the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Champions Cup.

As the boss of the Chicago Bulls, Doon won the NBA championship and the FMVP trophy, so he has more confidence to put forward conditions to the basket.

Therefore, even if Doon only agreed to play half the court and show up a little, the basketball manager did not dare to say a word.

And a situation like Chen Jianghua, who didn't play a CBA game, but was exceptionally promoted to the men's national basketball team by Younas, was also because the men's basketball team performed too poorly in Europe and had to stand up.

In general, since 06, the men's basketball team has ushered in a real new atmosphere.

If Dunn had played for the men's basketball team two years earlier, he might have become someone else's puppet, no matter how hard he tried and did dirty work, he would still have to bear the infamy and forge ahead.

Now it's different, Doon didn't play in the men's basketball team, and he didn't make an inch, but he became the undisputed team boss of the men's basketball team.

At least that's the case in the basket tube center.

And with the right to promise good, Duane is good in the men's basketball team and shows his strength in the next World Championships.

……

"Doon, why don't you wear number 13! This number means more to you! ”

On August 2, the men's basketball team returned to China from Spain, and Dune, Yao Ming, and Wang Zhizhi also officially joined the men's basketball team and began to train with everyone.

Before the training camp officially began, Yao Ming came to the door to discuss with Dunn the jersey number to use in the next competition.

According to FIBA rules, the number of participating players is uniformly limited to No. 4 to No. 15, while in the men's basketball team, No. 13 has always belonged to Yao Ming.

For Yao Ming, winning and winning glory for the country is more important than anything else.

Now that he has finally ushered in a helper like Doon, as long as he can produce results, he can naturally do anything.

Just like Maddie joining the Rockets, Yao Ming is willing to give up the boss position for the sake of the team and for the sake of results.

"I'm not a center, what do I wear as a number 13?

You've been wearing size 13, and you're going to keep wearing it!

I'm an outside player, so I'm definitely wearing the outside number.

Nobody wears size 10, right? The 10th belongs to me. ”

Doon still has some understanding of FIBA's number rules.

No. 4 to No. 15, from small to large, are basically ranked by height.

Usually 4 to 8 are guards, 9 to 13 are forwards, and numbers 14 and 15 are centers.

As the saying goes, the technique is not high enough to make up.

If the men's basketball team's skills are not good, and the basic skills of guards and forwards are not good, then the whole team can only rely on height to make up for the lack of offense and defense.

CBA players are not good at basic skills, and the intensity of the game is not big enough, and when it comes to the big game, it is easy for players to have a serious lack of physical strength in the second half.

So, what was supposed to be two centers became four centers.

At the same time, because of the lack of qualified guards, especially point guards who can control the ball well and connect with the team, the men's basketball team also has to be equipped with a few more ball handlers.

Like Liu Wei, although he is constantly buried by fans, throughout the twenty or thirty years of the men's basketball team, Liu Wei has become a ceiling.

Younas also felt that Liu Wei was not good, so he urgently promoted Chen Jianghua and Zhang Qingpeng, hoping to take them to upgrade so that they could be needed in 08.

And when a team increases the number of point guards and centers, it is the number of wing players and playing time that is compressed.

Now this men's basketball team is really a small forward for Doon, and Doon's significance to the men's basketball team is self-evident.

The No. 10 jersey was supposed to be worn by small forwards, and Doon said that no one would have an opinion on wearing No. 10.

Originally, the arrangement made by the blue shoes was that if Du En didn't come back, he would bring an extra inside line and be a substitute for Yao Ming, basically Tang Zhengdong and Zhang Songtao chose one of the two.

Now that Doon is back and willing to play in the World Championships, there's no problem.

Doon can have whatever number he wants, and he can have any teammates he wants.

The Chicago Bulls can rely on Doon to win the championship, and the men's basketball team can rely on Doon to win medals, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?

With the arrival of all the men's basketball players, Du En, Yao Ming, and Wang Zhizhi devoted themselves to the training camp, and the men's basketball team soon ushered in a new round of changes.

However, after all, the three of Doon have just participated in the training camp, and they have said that they will not play warm-up games other than the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Champions Cup.

Therefore, in the recent warm-up games, the men's basketball team also lost badly.

Especially in the Sino-US confrontation match on August 7, the Dream Seven team beat 119-73, and scored a full 46 points.

Of course, domestic fans still have a lot of opinions about the situation that Dune, Yao Ming and others watched the game off the field and did not play.

However, on August 11, the Stankovic Intercontinental Basketball Championship officially started, and the three Doon finally appeared on stage, and public opinion reversed instantly...... (End of chapter)
