MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1012 A moment of silence for Bogut

   Chapter 1012 1012. A moment of silence for Bogut

   When the final whistle sounded, Chinese players and coaches rushed into the stadium to celebrate.

   They beat the gold medal favorite Spain!

  Good start!

  Silver Fox is so excited now, it's too strong! The warden is too strong! The little giant is as strong as ever!

  Originally, even if they won the World Championships the year before last, when they heard that Kobe and Kidd decided to represent the US team in the Olympics last year, Silver Fox still felt a little envious.

   But now, he wants to ask—who else!

  Who is better inside the US team than the little giant?

  Who is better than the warden on the outside line?

  In addition to strength, Liu Xiu's sense of smell on the court also surprised Silver Fox.

  Compared to the past two World Series, Liu Xiu played more proactively on the court this time, saw an opportunity, and decisively put forward opinions.

  In this game, from the perspective of the whole process, it is really difficult for Silver Fox to say which side is stronger in terms of skills, tactics, and player abilities. The win here depends on Liu Xiu's on-the-spot response.

  But the intuition, self-confidence, and execution ability of this kind of player are also part of their strength!

  The Olympic Games at my doorstep attracted the attention of hundreds of thousands of compatriots. Although Yinhu is from another country, he can feel the nervousness and anxiety of the team members.

   After defeating the strongest opponent in the group, Silver Fox can clearly feel that the team's confidence has greatly increased!

   On the other hand, the Spanish players felt aggrieved, and they felt that they still had a lot to play.

  Pau Gasol is autistic again... My younger brother feels at this time that if he can't play something, he can't be called strength.

   Little Gasol finally understood why his brother had been brooding over the deal in 2003 for 5 years.

   He has won the position of the prison team's main liner!

  …

"only:

  Host: 42 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, total value: 55; Paul Gasol: 26 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, total value: 37, goal 1 completed.

  Host: 2 steals and 3 blocks, value: 5; Paul Gasol: 1 steal and 3 blocks, value: 4, goal 2 completed.

  The host has led the team to defeat the Spanish team, and goal 3 has been completed.

  Congratulations to the host for getting the reward: Splash (Buff). "

"Splash (Buff): Before the start of each game, the host binds a teammate with a top-level three-point evaluation (90). After the teammate hits a three-pointer, the host will have a 50% chance of shooting a three-pointer in the next offensive round. fiery."

   After defeating the Spanish team, Liu Xiu was very excited. After celebrating after the game, accepting interviews, and reading the task completion prompt, he was even more excited!

  He returned to the Olympic Village, took a deep breath while taking a shower, and kept giving himself psychological hints—this was just an auxiliary bonus, and he couldn't pin his skills and tactics on it.

   After calming down, he analyzed it carefully.

  Even if Ray Allen is bound, the opponent averages 3 three-pointers per game, which may be the most ideal situation, after all, he is not the top scorer.

  Probability statistics, the more times a coin is tossed, the probability of two sides appearing will be infinitely close.

With a 50% chance of feeling hot, let’s say it’s a 50-50 split. Then there’s an average of 1.5 chances of triggering a ‘splash’ per game, and the actual increase in three-pointers will be at least 50% off… After calculating this carefully, he concluded that in conclusion-

   This is not a buff that can qualitatively change strength and performance.

  Thinking about this, Liu Xiu treated the buff more calmly.

  Actually, he knows that this calculation should not be done. With this buff, there will be many variables in the game, but the attitude should be like this.

  One's own strength is the last word. Without one's own strength as the basis, those bonuses are useless no matter how attractive they seem.

   Feeling hot, you have to have the basic ability to throw the ball in before you can talk about 'hotness'.

   Nothing happened all night. At 9 o'clock the next morning, the Chinese men's basketball team gathered to prepare for the game. The opponent tomorrow is the Australian team.

  After finishing the training in the morning, after lunch, people from the Basketball Association and the Blue Management Center came. The old and new generations of heads came together. They won the Spanish team and came to express their condolences.

  I heard that Liu Xiu was too tired from the game last night, so he went back to the dormitory to catch up on sleep after the training. The old master got used to it, and instead of seeing the face he didn't like, he was happier.

  The new head took this into consideration, and kept an eye on it—that guy was really easy to mess with, and actually made the old head acquiesce in not appearing on such a formal occasion.

  Be careful in the future! That guy has won the world championship and is in the top spot in the domestic sports world. It is said that he is not a good person. More than one black guy in the NBA has been knocked out.

   But it doesn't matter, there are still so many people in the national team who can handle it, and they don't have the same knowledge as that guy... His political achievements still depend on him.

  …

  Teammates bite the bullet and listen to the nonsense of their superiors, and they have to laugh and applaud.

Liu Xiu didn't go back to the dormitory, but went to pick up Anne Hathaway. The couple went on a date and went to watch the men's synchronized 10-meter platform diving final. Good angle, like a person diving.

   It’s just that the water splash is not very good, there is no water splash, unlike the Australian team in front of it, it hurts to watch the splash.

  After watching the match, the two prepared to move on to the next match. They went to the International Conference Center to watch the women's fencing semi-finals, which is Anne Hathaway's favorite sport.

   Standing up and listening to the national anthem, when they were about to leave, the two saw an acquaintance.

  A No. 10 player of the US team, who did not want to be named, was fiddling with a SLR camera in his hand, with confusion written all over his face.

  Liu Xiu walked to the side and watched silently. Anne Hathaway followed the example of good people and also watched silently.

  The people on the podium had finished greeting the audience and began to come down. Kobe became impatient and acted violently. At this time, a hand reached out in front of him and lifted the cover of the camera lens.

   Liu Xiu did not leave her name after she finished her good deed, and called Anne Hathaway to leave. The latter politely smiled and nodded at Kobe before leaving.

  Kobe glanced at Liu Xiu's back, picked up the camera, and saw that there was finally a picture...

  He stood up and wanted to smash the camera, but he couldn't bear the advantages, it was quite expensive.

  He yelled at Liu Xiu who was about to walk into the passage: "Of course I know that the lens cover is not open! It's not like I don't know how to use a camera!"

  Liu Xiu and Anne Hathaway didn't respond. When they watched the fencing match, they were still chatting about Kobe's brilliant performance in operating electronic equipment.

   Chatting and chatting, we talked about the trivial matters of life. Although Anne-Hathaway has a gentle personality, she occasionally has unpleasant things in her husband's house. Liu Xiu is willing to be a listener when she is free.

  Anne-Hathaway was a little conflicted at first, but after a long time, she was happy to complain to Liu Xiu.

   It’s not necessary to change anything, it just needs a way to vent, otherwise the slight unhappiness will eventually become a real contradiction.

   There is no better way than being unknown to strangers, and those closest to her will help her keep her secret.

  The relationship between Liu Xiu and Anne Hathaway has reduced a lot of friction. Anne Hathaway is willing to talk to him about everything, and they know each other better, and there are fewer misunderstandings.

What Anne-Hathaway complained this time was that she wanted to practice spoken Chinese with Liu Xiu’s relatives, friends and neighbors. Although she also spoke Chinese when she was in the United States, sometimes she took her in-laws out shopping and met Americans and said The most important thing is definitely English, and there are not many practical opportunities.

  As a result, every time I come to China, the people next door want to speak English with her...

Liu Xiu is not just listening, he will also respond. After hearing Anne-Hathaway complain, he talked about when he first arrived in the United States, every time his neighbors saw him, they would say 'Hi', 'Have you eaten? '... and other related interesting things.

  The rest time in the afternoon passed by, and before dinner time, Liu Xiu sent Anne Hathaway home and returned to the Olympic Village.

   On the second day, August 12th, the second game day arrived.

   At 4:45 pm, the match between the Chinese team and the Australian team started.

  This game is not a popular game, and the opponent is average.

  The two games in the evening are the hottest ones—Germany VS Russia, Spain VS Greece.

  The Chinese team beat the Australian team 22 to 11 in the first quarter. Yao Ming seemed to be trying to peel Bogut alive inside. It was extremely cruel!

   The reason is that Bogut is like taking fake medicine. Before the game, he uttered nonsense, saying that the organizers treated them unfairly and they were treated unfairly...

After seeing the news, Liu Xiu complained to Yao Ming: "Look, look, we have already become a 'big country', don't they still say that? If we torment other participating countries like Sparta, it's okay for us to be scolded. The situation...we might as well be kinder to ourselves."

   Then, Yao Ming made 4 of 4 shots in the first quarter, scoring 9 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks.

  A pure blue-collar worker like Bogut is a coolie in the international arena.

   It was the 20-year-old guard Paddy Mills who made people's eyes shine. Liu Xiu saw that the big dog who came to watch the game had been staring at this little guard.

He remembered, this guy seems to be selected by their prison team in the future, showing a very good shooting talent, but he has been injured for the first two years of his career, and he has been unable to heal... Then he went to the Spurs and healed up, and finally became the Spurs The second three-pointer in team history, second only to Manu Ginobili, the strongest three-pointer in the history of the Spurs.

  Liu Xiu thought of the former team doctor's "prayer therapy" that the vice president complained to him.

  In the second quarter, the Chinese team made persistent efforts, 24 to 18, and opened the point difference to 17 points. In the third quarter, 22 to 17, the point difference came to 22 points, and the final quarter became garbage time.

  In the final quarter, the Chinese team sent a lineup of drinking fountains including Chen Jianghua, Li Nan, Sun Yue, Wang Lei, and Du Feng, and the game entered garbage time.

   At this time, people no longer cared about the game itself. With 2 wins and 0 losses, the Chinese team has half a foot in the finals, and the fans are already cheering and celebrating.

  Liu Xiu is also discussing with the three apprentices whether to come to the arena to sing Katyusha at night to help Xiong Da.

   It seemed that the master and the second child wanted to play for real, but neither Du Feng nor Yi Jianlian knew how to stop it.

   Can you escape?

   But these two are the two with the highest combat effectiveness among the four of them!

   Not to mention the master, the second child can beat them both.

In the Stankovic Cup in 2005, the boss and the third child saw the second child chasing five or six members of the Puerto Rico team with their own eyes. Blood was everywhere on the fist and jersey. It is estimated that two milliliters came from the second child's broken finger The joint oozes.

   I can't escape...

   Just then, an accident happened!

   This accident has nothing to do with the Chinese team... Yes, everyone has a shadow in their hearts and pays more attention to health issues.

Bogut is still on the court during the garbage time, daring to fight hard. He has been tossing about the debt problem for the past three years. He has gone to make movies that adults can watch. His body has been hollowed out. Tonight was hammered by Yao Ming very badly, the data was extremely poor, I had to brush it up, but when I cut to catch the ball and dunk, I slapped the ball under my feet, and my feet stepped on the ball, and my body of more than 110 kilograms lost balance and fell heavily on the ground. on the floor.

  Accompanied by Bogut's screams, people saw his knees folded more than 90 degrees to the outside...

  …

  Many years later, the children who watched the match between the Chinese team and the Australian team recalled the 2008 Olympic Games, and they all had a childhood shadow that they could not forget.

The game was interrupted for several minutes, and there was no accident in the end. The Chinese team did not dare to play hard for a while, and the coaching staff also asked the players to be more cautious. In the final quarter, the Chinese team only scored 12 points, and the Australian team only scored 15 points. point.

  Liu Xiu scored 7 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. Yao Ming scored 25 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 5 blocks. The Chinese team defeated the Australian team 80-61.

In an interview after the game, Liu Xiu was asked by Su Qun about Bogut’s injury, and she replied: “I express my deepest condolences for this kind of incident. The lessons learned from the past are the lessons of the past. The predecessors planted trees and the future generations took advantage of the shade. We must not forget the history. Painful lesson."

Su Qun breathed a sigh of relief. When he interviewed Liu Xiu, his heart was hanging in his throat. He was afraid that Liu Xiu would be upset and Bogut would speak out. If he said "deserved it", the higher authorities would definitely be dissatisfied and affect the "image of a great country". At that time, Liu Xiu still took care of the overall situation.

   It's the words and sentences, why does Su Qun feel weird?

   It's not that Liu Xiu doesn't want the image of a "big country", but first of all, he has to benefit from his own side in order to be a "big country".

In the evening, Liu Xiuzhen brought three apprentices to the Wukesong Gymnasium again. The three apprentices were so desperate. Their master's brains were so good, and his language talent was full. They just had dinner, and Katyusha The refrain part of the learned!

   It's just that, the singing voice... can it be a little more tuned?

   It is estimated that the singing will not only affect the chariot...

  Unfortunately, Xiongda was not strong tonight. The day before yesterday, they lost to the Greek team 85 to 92. The Greek team is a competitive team, and if they lose, they lose.

  Playing against the German team tonight, the Russian team, the champion of last year's European Championship, lost again tonight 77 to 81!

  The German team couldn't even beat the German team. Liu Xiu was very surprised. With the strength that Xiong Da has shown this year, is it possible that he will lose all in the group stage?

   Kirilenko's poor performance this year is unbearable.

  By the 14th, Liu Xiu and others no longer wondered why the Russian team performed so badly, and began to enjoy... Tonight's opponent is the Russian team.

  Due to direct confrontation, the Chinese team had a clearer understanding of how weak the Russian team was. At the end of each quarter, the Russian team was weak, and the Russian team always collapsed quickly during the stalemate.

Yao Ming scored 37 points, breaking his personal Olympic single-game scoring record, plus Liu Xiu’s 10 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, Yi Jianlian’s 7 points, Wang Zhizhi’s 4 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Zhu Fangyu’s 11 points... The Chinese team won 91-75 The Russian team won the third victory in the group stage and locked in the top eight two games ahead of schedule!
