Chapter 1285 1284. The Idea of the National Team with Liu Mang as the Main Force (Asking for Double Monthly Tickets)
It is natural for the Chinese team to reach the quarterfinals, and not many people are surprised.
Liu Mang scored 60 points, which is quite shocking, but when you think about it, the South Koreans can score 54 points, and Liu Mang can score 60 points, which is not too unexpected.
But for Chinese fans, it's very different.
The stable performance of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, and the national team's pitchers were able to seize opportunities well under the control of the two superstars inside and outside, giving the Chinese team the strength to guarantee the top eight.
Then, Liu Mang can still explode!
There is hope for a rematch!
The Chinese team's opponent in the next round is the winner of the African team Nigeria, which is second in Group A, and the United States' Puerto Rico team, which is third in Group D.
Nigeria, without Liu Mang, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi can lead the team to beat Nigeria by 30 points.
Puerto Rico was easily defeated by the Chinese team in the group stage.
There is basically no suspense about the semi-finals. Chinese fans are waiting for the semi-finals to start on August 29!
Chinese fans are already imagining who their opponents will be in the semi-finals on August 31st or September 1st.
…
"Uncle, look, there are posters of you in Japan. It's so awesome... um..."
Liu Mang pointed at the little Loli's head with his index finger to prevent her from getting close: "Dina, what do you want to do?"
"Of course I'm blowing a kiss of love to uncle..." the little Loli pouted and said.
"Is it necessary to blow a kiss with love?" Liu Mang pinched the little Loli's face and said.
"We can't kiss him anyway!" Little Loli snorted, "When Dinah grows up and becomes a beautiful woman, and uncle wants Dinah to kiss his face, Dinah won't even want to, hum!"
Seeing the little Loli's arrogant look, Liu Mang couldn't help but pinch the little Loli's face.
It feels great to break the record of South Korea in the World Championships!
Just as Liu Mang saw the public opinions of domestic fans on the Internet, the Chinese team is also targeting the semi-finals.
Nigeria was just lucky enough to defeat Serbia and Montenegro and get second place in Group A. Puerto Rico is no match for the Chinese team, and the Chinese team is now waiting for the semi-finals.
On the 27th and 28th, the Chinese team will have two days of rest. On the 27th, they will have a rare holiday. They can stroll around the Tokyo metropolitan area under the accompaniment, protection, and translation of the team staff.
I've been in Japan for more than half a month and can't go shopping, yet I've achieved such good results. It's rare for people in the Blue Association to feel guilty.
Liu Mang went shopping in Tokyo with his parents, San Niu, and the two boys today. When they came to the Tokyo Tower, the little Lolita asked Liu Mang to bend down and tell Liu Mang something. She secretly wanted to kiss Liu Mang on the face, but Liu Mang accurately predicted it. The sentence was met, and you escaped a disaster...
A small country also has its advantages. Japan's geographical resources are basically utilized to the extreme. Most cities are connected. The Shinkansen can reach the next city in ten minutes at most, so you can visit many places in one day.
Liu Mang's parents brought a translator and went to the sweet world of two. Liu Mang was a pain in the ass. Levia and Alexia each had to take care of a child, so they stayed in the coffee shop and did not go out to hang out. , Liu Mang can only take the little Loli shopping.
"Damn uncle!" After the little Loli was ravaged, she rubbed her face and said, "Uncle, let's go up!"
Having become accustomed to being abused, the little Loli took Liu Mang's hand and walked forward.
Liu Mang, like most Chinese men, doesn't like tourist attractions very much... he followed helplessly.
Little lolita... Girls are like that. Shopping is too easy. Liu Mang feels more tired today than playing games...
However, seeing that the little Loli who was about to turn 12 years old in less than four months was already almost 1.6 meters tall, Liu Mang felt so heartbroken that he had less and less time to abuse the little Loli.
Thinking about Levia's height of 1.79 meters, the little Loli may be taller than Levia in two or three years when she is fifteen or sixteen years old...
Liu Mang was even more heartbroken. He couldn't eat, sleep or torture Loli...
Fortunately, I have a precious daughter who will be abused in two years!
Liu Mang's mood suddenly improved a lot. The little loli looks good and can be used as a vase when he grows up. There is also a spare little loli that he can abuse!
…
…
On the 27th, Liu Mang and his teammates took a rare break and took a day off, allowing the families of the national team players to have a day to travel in Japan with their loved ones.
On the 28th, the Chinese team resumed training, mainly open three-pointers. The game against Serbia clearly demonstrated the importance of the four outside shooters Guo Shiqiang, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, and Li Nan. Liu Wei, Zhang Jingsong, and Sun Yue each only played three-pointers. After 3 minutes, they are more versatile, but there is nothing outstanding about it. For example, when Liu Mang plays in singles, the opponent dares to flank Liu Mang more after they miss an open three-pointer or a mid-range shot.
Although the National Basketball Association has many problems, it is not without people of insight. There are also some people within the system who are quietly making positive contributions to Chinese basketball. Director Zhang, Xu Jicheng, Su Qun and other people who have positions in the National Basketball Association are working in the National Basketball Association. He also has a certain say, and Yao Ming has a huge say. Yao Ming was the only national team player who did not go out to relax yesterday. He, Silver Fox and Director Zhang discussed matters with the team officials of the Blue Association.
Unlike Liu Mang, whose privilege is to return to the team late and not play in Asian games, Yao Ming is a player within the system. He participated in the Asian Championships and Asian Games and actively participated in the decision-making of the Chinese men's basketball team. Yao Ming has a better vision. He thinks that when Liu Mang was still playing, the selection of talents for the national team should focus on pitchers and defensive players. At least in the era of Liu Mang, the Chinese men's basketball team should focus on this aspect. No matter how versatile others are, even Sun Yue, who can theoretically play from the first position to the fourth position, is N dimensions behind Liu Mang.
As for whether it can be successful, whether the Blue Association can agree with the suggestions of Yao Ming, Silver Fox, and Zhang, it depends on the results of this World Championship.
Chinese officials have always liked to be ambitious. Last time, they even called for a guaranteed top four this time. Fortunately, the Chinese team won the first place in the group stage. Before the semi-finals, they will not meet the other three first-place teams in the group stage, otherwise it would be really difficult.
On the afternoon of the 28th, after training in the morning, the Chinese team came to the Saitama Super Arena in the afternoon to watch the game between the United States and New Zealand.
Five of the top eight spots have been announced. China, Argentina, Greece, Turkey, and Spain have advanced to the quarterfinals.
The remaining three matches are the United States vs. Slovenia, Italy vs. France, and Nigeria vs. Puerto Rico, all of which will be played this afternoon.
On the German side, Germany's old player, Schmidt, was defeated by Turkey in the quarterfinals...
