Chapter 1279 My Oil Can Drown You

Li Ba thought about this lineup. The insiders are Chandler and Kevin Love. These are his two younger brothers and the main insiders of the US team. The substitute insiders are Big Z and rookie Anthony Davis. With such a lineup, he Fighting with Dayao and the others is just chopping vegetables and melons.

But the outside is still the biggest weakness of the Chinese team. James and others are getting stronger and have sharp breakthroughs. Then there are the outside shooting of Durant, Paul, Anthony and Harden. This time the threat of the American team is greater than before. Two terms are bigger.

Deng Huade added: "The injury to Warcraft this time will have a great impact on the Lakers and the US team. Otherwise, the team will be stronger."

At this time, Li Jinshen introduced the coaching staff, as well as two foreigners, and then Li Nan also joined the coaching staff.

The team leader is Li Jinshen himself, and the deputy team leader is Hu Jiashi.

Then Li Ba went to the women's basketball team to have a look and said hello. It was right next door, which was very convenient.

Next, he changed his clothes and participated in training, mainly practicing tactics with his teammates.

Li Ba hadn't played for a year, and when he got excited, even Yao and A-Lian received a few dunks and big blocks. His performance was still extremely strong, which made Li Jinshen and others so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

After training, Li Ba visited the gymnasium of Tsinghua University.

Not only the men's basketball team trains here, but also the national diving and swimming teams.

As soon as I entered, I saw Sun Yang climbing out of the water and immediately shouted: "Sun Yang?"

"Eh? Brother Hammer?"

When Sun Yang saw it, he immediately shouted happily.

"Hey, it's Brother Hammer. Is he healed?" Fu Yuanhui shouted.

"It's good morning. We announced our comeback in March. Don't you know such big news?" Jiao Niuyang said.

Some team members immediately gathered around and started chatting with Li Ba.

The coaches next to him were also helpless. Iron Hammer interfered with the team's training as soon as he arrived, but Li Ba's status in the Chinese sports world was too high, so they couldn't say anything.

"Brother Hammer, I heard that you invested 3 billion to build a training base?" Sun Yang asked.

"Yes, in my hometown, it will not be put into use until 2014. It is full of the best equipment in the world, from training to testing and treatment equipment. You will also have to go there for training by then." Li Ba said with a smile.

"That would be great!"

Sun Yang and others said happily.

As time entered mid-July, the national team arranged several warm-up matches, but Li Ba and Dayao did not participate.

On July 23, the men’s basketball team arrived in London.

The opening ceremony will be held at 4 pm on the 28th.

In the men's basketball competition, a total of twelve teams are divided into two groups, and the top four in each group advance to the top eight.

The Chinese team was drawn into Group B and will face Spain first, then Russia, which came out of the qualifying round, then Australia and Brazil, and finally the host team Great Britain.

In this Olympics, because Li Ba was injured and retired, the United States has great hopes for this national team, hoping that they can regain the title of Dream Team.

Therefore, the American media hyped up Li Ba, and used the method of belittling him and the Chinese team to elevate this American team.

Many media even predicted that the Chinese team would not even make it out of the group stage and would stop outside the quarterfinals.

On the 29th, at 3 pm, China will play Spain for the first time.

This time the London Olympic Committee divided the twelve teams into six levels. The US men's basketball team and the Spanish men's basketball team were placed in the first level, and the defending champion Chinese team was placed in the second level. The reason is that Li Ba's status has not yet been determined, so this This game attracted too many media, because they all wanted to see Li Ba's condition after his comeback and whether he still has the grace of the basketball god.

The presidents of the International Olympic Committee and FIBA ​​were present, as was the Chinese Olympic Committee, NBA Chairman Stern was also present, and there were also a large number of scouts.

The American team did not have a game today, but everyone was present.

In addition to these people, many NBA superstars also came to the game, such as Jordan, O'Neal, Magic Johnson, Suns head coach Payton, etc.

"Michael, who do you think will win this game?"

TNT is the American broadcaster of the Olympics, and commentator Barkley interviewed Jordan on the spot.

"I haven't seen the Hammer for a long time, but I think even if his condition declines due to injury, he will still retain part of his strength. With Yao and Yi, the Chinese team is still very strong. I am optimistic about the Chinese team. Even, I want to A reminder to Team USA, don’t be careless and don’t underestimate the Hammers.”

Jordan said seriously.

"If the Hammers decline, what level do you think his strength will be? Super giant? All-star?" Barkley asked again.

Jordan thought for a moment and said, "Super giant."

Before the game, both sides announced their starting lineup.

Spain: Marc Gasol, Pau Gasol, Fernandez, Navarro, Calderon.

Chinese team: Li Ba, Ah Lian, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Wei.

The basic tactics of the Chinese team are still the traditional center tactics, attracting defense inside and shooting from the outside. It is simple but adaptable to the Chinese team's lineup.

In addition to Li Ba, the other four players, including Ah Lian, must be pulled to the three-point line.

In the Chinese team's locker room, Li Ba took out his mobile phone after changing and sent a text message to Gao Yuanyuan: "If the Suns still don't contact you after halftime, then you can negotiate contracts with other teams. ”

Gao Yuanyuan was in New York at the time. She was not surprised to receive the text message. Even if Li Ba wanted to stay with the Suns, if the Suns still had no intention of signing him, she would persuade Li Ba to leave the Suns.

The No. 1 player in basketball must have the value of the No. 1 player in basketball. If you can't afford it, that's your problem, not the player's problem, because the NBA is originally a commercial entertainment company, which is essentially no different from Senbei Entertainment.

Twenty minutes before the game, the two teams came out.

"Boss!"

When he saw Li Ba at the exit, Gasol ran over immediately.

"Hey, Hammer." Gasol also greeted him immediately.

"Paul." Li Ba smiled.

Gasol now belongs to the Suns, but he is not a teammate with Li Ba because Li Ba does not have a contract now.

Li Ba has not played a game for a year. When he came out, he received cheers from the whole audience.

In the UK, his influence and popularity are very large. After all, he is the one who won two consecutive Wimbledon championships.

"Yeah, Dad is on the stage!"

In Hunan, in the living room of Li Ba's house, Guoguo jumped and cheered.

It was ten o'clock in the evening. Li Ba's family was full of people, including many relatives and neighbors. The house was bustling.

"Iron Hammer?"

In the audience, a group of NBA superstars such as James and Kobe stood up and greeted Li Ba.

"Hey, are you ready? I'm coming back." Li Ba waved his hand with a smile.

"Iron Hammer, how much gas do you have left? Don't let us down."

After winning the championship, James had a different temperament than before.

"You asked me how much gas I have left. I tell you, it's enough to drown you." Li Ba pointed at James and smiled.
