906: [I Just Don’t Want to Lose]

"It was a humiliating defeat."

It came three days after the U.S. lost the semifinals and before the U.S. faced Russia in the bronze medal match. Kobe Bryant finally stood up and summarized the failure on behalf of the Dream Team.

In the past two days, the entire dream team has endured unprecedented pressure, doubts, and even abuse.

After all, the US team's lineup this year is even stronger than that of the Beijing Olympics. Three generations of superstars, old, middle and young, gathered to attack, but they lost to the Chinese team led by Snoopy. This is unacceptable both emotionally and intellectually.

Could it be said that Duke Snoop's energy alone has surpassed that of King James, Death Durant, Black Mamba Kobe and many other superstars?

"There is no doubt about Snoopy's greatness. He is even more legendary in the Olympics than Michael Jordan. But what I want to say is that they won because they are a tenacious team and each of them played at critical moments in the game. The defensive performance was historic. We had many opportunities to defeat them, but we didn’t even think we were ready to fight.”

Bryant said with a serious expression in front of the camera.

As the spiritual leader of this team, his words revealed a lot.

Of course, its most important significance is that it confirms the Chicago reporter's revelations. The Chicago Tribune stated the day after the U.S. team lost that some superstars on the team were deliberately ostracizing their teammates and even bringing their league grudges into the locker room.

When such revelations spread from Illinois, anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on.

After all, Carlos Boozer hasn't played much since the group stage. And, most importantly...in this crucial battle, with Chris Bosh suffering from food poisoning, Dwight Howard leaving due to injury, and the team only remaining with two inside players, Tyson Chandler and Boozer, He still hasn't gotten even a minute of playing time.

Isn't this a clear and deliberate isolation?

This caused the entire state of Illinois to begin to ridicule overwhelmingly. No one would doubt the patriotic sentiments of this area, but...compared to having their own players excluded, they were more willing to accept the team leader leading the team to stage an epic counterattack.

After all, there have always been some unconvinced guys claiming that the Bulls won two consecutive championships because Chicago's lineup is too strong.

But now, can we still say that the Chinese team's lineup is stronger than the American team?

Do those guys who have eaten sour grapes dare not recognize Snoopy's strong dominance?

54 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists! ! Just ask the whole world, from ancient times to the present, has anyone done this? This is a unique honor.

Chicago fans are complacent. They are the least sad group in the entire United States for this tragic defeat.

After all, the further strength of Little Duke means that the Bulls are one step closer to winning three consecutive championships.

Judging from the signings of various teams this summer, we have not yet seen any team that has the possibility of forming a super team.

Of course... there are still some sour arguments made by fans of other teams: for example, that Snoopy only adapts to the FIBA ​​system, that his shooting depends more on going crazy, and that luck will not always be on his side.

Frankly, these words are completely immune to Duke fans.

Since Snoopy joined the NBA, he has been growing up in this kind of vitriol. Those who once said that he could not dribble, had no ability to hold the ball, could not score, and had no room for growth have now been beaten to death. Those well-known commentators have long since had no room to speak: because people no longer Don't believe anything they say about Snoopy anymore.

Just like Bill Simmons, who is now affectionately called Bill Duke Fortune Simmons, whenever he criticizes Snoopy for a certain weakness, he will be slapped in the face immediately.

Now, Duke fans are even begging him to say more bad things.

Because... I really can't wait to see Snoopy become a superstar without any flaws.

…

Before the final gold medal match against Spain, Daphne flew from Los Angeles to London with Dougal's parents.

The purpose of her trip was partly to promote Beauty and the Beast, but also to supervise the Duke's London concert. Of course, the most important thing is to come and share the joy of defeating Team USA and creating an epic legend.

Even though she is used to the turmoil in shopping malls, she couldn't help but tremble when talking about this matter: "This time you lead the team to defeat the US team, the direct economic benefits will exceed 100 million US dollars, and the indirect benefits may be as high as 500 million or more. . You are now the most famous celebrity in the world, and you are even worshiped as a god in Asia."

"Look at the business cooperation projects sent from South Korea, as well as Japan...Southeast Asia. What you represent this time is the victory of the yellow race. I can say without any secret, your sneakers have been sold like crazy these days, it's surpassing all other brands combined in Asia.”

"By the way, there are also domestic ones. I don't know how many commercial endorsement contracts I have received. Many developers even want to give you their best house for free... This is crazy. I can't even understand why you are so enthusiastic. ”

Daphne is an American, even though she has been heavily neutralized. But in terms of resonance with some national sentiments, it still lacks a little bit.

When Liu Xiang won the gold medal in the Olympics, the sensation he caused was extremely explosive. He suddenly went from a niche athlete to a national business card, and was hailed as the pride of the yellow race.

The influence of basketball is more than ten times greater than that of track and field, and it is a team activity.

The most important thing is that Dugger is not a previously unknown player who suddenly broke out. He has always been a representative figure of Asian basketball.

And now, he has led his team to defeat the world's dominant Dream Team, and he has directly reached the pinnacle of world basketball on behalf of Asia. This is undoubtedly a violent outburst of emotions for Asians who have been suppressed by the West for nearly a century.

This clearly declares from a spiritual level and a competitive level: yellow people are not weaker than anyone else.

"If you lead the team to defeat Spain and win the Olympic gold medal in one fell swoop, I think the benefits will rise again." Daphne continued.

Dougal nodded.

This is his goal.

Of course, he didn't want to win the Olympic gold medal for the interests behind it.

He just doesn't want to lose.
