Chapter 445 Let’s Get Married

——3 points again! Another 3+1! Lin Dong's efficiency in chasing points is too high...ah, the US team has made another substitution! This time it’s five for five! The characteristics of the American Dream Team, five super giants went down, and five super giants with full health came up!

——Sun Yue missed a 3-pointer. The ball was thrown too hastily. Artest's replacement is also key! Artest, who just came up, has too much energy. He just guarded two people! The physical strength of the American team is as if it is free of money...

——Yao Ming succeeded in making up the dunk and scored his 16th point in the game. This goal was so crucial!

——Lin Dongqiang played inside and caused a foul on Boozer. The score was 2+1. The point difference was once again within 15 points. We still have a chance! There’s still a whole section left!

——Great board! When Dayao could no longer run, the combination of Yi Jianlian and Battelle defended the glory of the Dragon Kingdom men's basketball team. The point difference had just reached 18 points again. At this time, Duncan grabbed this rebound. It's so critical. Once the point difference reaches 20, there is almost no chance of catching up!

——3 points again! Lin Dong has scored his 8th 3-pointer of the game! He made 8 of 11 3-pointers, including 3 3+1s. Oh my God, he was able to maintain such a shooting percentage despite being double-teamed by the US team from beginning to end. This is simply incredible! It can be seen that every shot he takes is not blind. Now that Long Guo does not have Dayao inside, the rebounds are absolutely weak. If it were not for Lin Dong's super high shooting rate, I am afraid the game would have lost its suspense.

——Hey, Dayao shouldn't be allowed to play at this time. He really has no physical strength. The ball just now couldn't even jump, and his steps have begun to stagger. In fact, Yi Jianlianhe was roughly defensive on the inside just now. The effect is still there...

——2+1! Another 2+1! I have lost count of how many times Lin Dong has caused defensive fouls against his opponents in this game. The four words "scoring efficiency" are vividly reflected in him. In the double double team rotation of the US team, he only took 21 shots. , 16 of 21 shots, and has now scored a full 53 points, an incredible performance!

——Amazing performance, amazing physical strength, never give up! With this 3 points, the point difference was once again pulled back to 15 points, but now there is still time left...

——Lin Dong! Lin Dong! Lin Dong!

Snapped.

Before the game was over, Lin Dong had already turned off the TV screen.

In just a few days, he has watched this game no less than twenty times, and now he is just waiting for Yuya to put on makeup in the hotel, which is a bit boring.

It is a fact that the overall performance of the Dragon Country team is not as good as the American team. Just the starting five tigers are not as good as the overall strength, let alone comparing the depth of the bench and the infinite physical strength of the opponent.

He had tried his best, performed what he thought was his best performance, and achieved the best a player could do, but he still couldn't turn the tide.

Whenever he has just adapted to the defense of Kobe + Anthony, Old K will be very cunning and replace the combination of Wade and LeBron.

In addition to the physical collision, what you play is a change of rhythm, which makes you uncomfortable, which creates a lot of trouble for your own scoring.

Although he could barely resist this point by relying on his desire for victory and reasonable handling of the ball, he once led his team with Dayao to launch two beautiful counterattacks to chase points.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the Dragon Kingdom team as a whole cannot guard against the American team, especially after Dayao was completely exhausted and was in a complete loss.

He held on to the score, but couldn't help but continue to lose points.

Not only did the Americans hold on to the 10-point advantage they had at the beginning, but they also continued to chip away at it bit by bit.

126:110, which seemed to be a loss of only 16 points, but Lin Dong knew that this was already the result of the US team being slightly relaxed at the last moment of the fourth quarter.

Otherwise, it would not be difficult for this American team, which was playing hard from beginning to end, to win by 230 points.

lose……

This word has not appeared in Lin Dong's world for a long, long time.

But that doesn't mean it won't happen.

However, different heights, different perspectives, and different moods bring different feelings.

In the previous life, when I suffered a defeat against Serbia in the U19 World Youth Championship, I felt despair and pain.

But this time, whether on the court or in the days after leaving the court, Lin Dong felt an inner peace.

There is no despair or disappointment, no complaints or depression.

There is no permanent winner in this world, let alone competitive sports?

Compared with the immaturity of the past, I should do some mature things now.

Lin Dong has been thinking about how to deal with the aftermath these days.

He has two 'queen' to be good to.

The first is the ‘back’ of the national team.

Although winning the Olympic silver medal is already an ultimate breakthrough for the Dragon State men's basketball team, and for insiders, they can see the overall gap between the two teams and the overall fighting spirit of the men's basketball team, so they are not dissatisfied with this result. , and were even quite satisfied. The Basketball Association also gave them champagne and high bonuses.

But for Lin Dong, this result is absolutely unsatisfactory.

Reincarnation has two major goals. One is the NBA championship. Now that he has won it, he will just build a dynasty in the future.

The other biggest goal is to become the Olympic champion, and even the World Championships have to be sidelined.

There is a chance. If we lose this time, we will still have the 2008 Olympics at our doorstep four years later.

It has only been 4 years. In 2008, both myself and Yao were in their prime. Their skills, mentality, and other aspects would become more mature. They must be able to lead the Dragon Kingdom to challenge the American team again.

But the question is, is it enough for just two people?

It has been clearly seen in this Olympics. Except for being able to compete with some of the substitutes of the US team, everyone else is still far behind.

The offensive end can be explosive and you can help them get open by yourself, but what about the defensive end?

As long as the team as a whole cannot defend against the U.S. team's offense, no matter how strong the Dragon State's firepower is, no matter how many points it scores, it will be beaten to pieces by the U.S. team, and it will never be possible to win the game.

You know, the U.S. team in the 2008 Olympics will be stronger than it is now. The complete body of super giants such as Wade, LeBron, Bosh, and Anthony may even be in an evolutionary state, which will make the U.S. team then stronger than the current one. Being more competitive overall, and with the addition of a number of super scorers such as Durant, the U.S. team will only be more difficult to defend than it is now.

If Sun Yue and the others are allowed to continue following the historical trajectory, although they will grow, they will still not be able to compete with those super giants.

Then when the 2008 Olympics comes, the Dragon Country team will still face almost the same problems as today.

So this is the first ‘post’ that you want to be good at.

It is to liberate Sun Yue and other future 08 main players from the CBA and go to a higher level league to experience.

Going to the NBA is of course the best choice, but how to get there?

This year's NBA draft has ended. If you want to go, you have to wait until next year. Of course, you can also use your status as a free agent to let the SuperSonics "internally digest" it. But with Sun Yue's current level, even if he and his mother fight for results, Sending them all to the SuperSonics will only result in placing a huge burden on the team, sitting on the bench, or being bullied on the court to the point where they lose their confidence.

Blindly sacrificing oneself to encourage others is not a good idea except to move oneself.

Right now, apart from himself and Dayao, there is only about one person in the Dragon Country team who is qualified to play in the NBA. The rotation level is not even the main force.

The NBA is not suitable, and it is not suitable for them to go to the NBDL league. The level is relatively low, and the overall emphasis is on gorgeous offense rather than solid defense. It is similar to the US High School and is not suitable for Dragon Country. Help people with the direction they want to go.

So Lin Dong considered another way.

European professional league.

The high-intensity hand-to-hand combat in the European Basketball League is very helpful in training their defensive and confrontation abilities.

And a year later, those who have improved can go to the NBA to participate in the draft, and then complete further improvement, while those who have not met the requirements by then can continue to experience in the European leagues.

Of course, the idea is wonderful, but the implementation is quite difficult.

The first is the issue of qualifications. The European League is not very interested in these young players from the Dragon Country who did not have many high-profile performances in the Olympics. Moreover, the European League itself is an internal carnival for Europeans. It does not point to players like The NBA wants to go global like that. If you want to send one or two players, relying on the connections of Yunus, an old acquaintance, is not a big problem, but if you want to send a large number, it is pure nonsense.

Lin Dong plans to directly buy a European League team...

The Spanish League is currently tentatively scheduled. In the past few days, I have contacted some people in charge of the Spanish League through my little Spanish fan Fernandez. I am inquiring about the purchase and sale of the team. There are several suitable teams, and the overall cost is relatively high. Buying an NBA team is much smaller, about 50 million euros, plus the overall investment in the next two or three years, it is only 100 million euros.

It's all for the Dragon Country Men's Basketball Team. Currently, the Basketball Association doesn't have the strength and courage, so just have it yourself. After all, it's not a lot of money for me now, and it can also be regarded as an investment.

The main reason is that he lacks a reliable manager, so Lin Dong plans to find Mitsui Hisashi to cooperate.

Although that guy has had a great time playing with the Seattle Storm in the past two years, the novelty has worn off... He stares at the SuperSonics' ratings of tens of millions every day, while his average ratings are only 100,000. The league naturally gradually became boring.

Sure enough, when I mentioned this matter to Mitsui Hisashi the day before yesterday, the guy immediately showed considerable interest. He planned to invest together with Lin Dong, each holding 50% of the shares, and he would have full management. As for the Storm team... it doesn't matter. , he would go back and take care of it when he had time, and throw it to Bob when he had no time. Listening to that tone, he felt that the guy had the same idea as him now. He wanted to use the European League to train the Dragon Country players, and the guy seemed to want to do the same. Think of that team as a training ground for the Japanese men's basketball team...

After playing on a team in Japan for one year and in the NBDL for two more years, Hisashi Mitsui is now very familiar with running a team. He has also learned a lot of advanced NBA training and management methods, and he has business resources in Japan. It is estimated that by then You can also get some sponsorship.

Lin Dong is still very relieved about him, not to mention that after buying this team, it mainly serves a training function. It doesn't matter whether it makes money or not, and even losses don't matter, just don't lose too much.

As for the second thing to deal with...

"Dang-dang-dang!" A female voice sounded excitedly from behind, and asked triumphantly: "Look at how good I look!"

Lin Dong turned around and saw that Yuya had already put on makeup, wearing a light green gauze skirt and a sun visor on her head, popping out of the dressing room of the hotel suite.

Her beautiful figure is fully exposed under the long skirt, and she is even more youthful and beautiful when paired with a sunhat with a cheerful and sunny atmosphere. However, the large sunglasses covering her face look somewhat nondescript.

Lin Dong said with a smile: "Why don't you wear sunglasses? The sun in Greece is so strong. I will give you two white eyes when I return to Seattle."

"Oh, I'm afraid I'll be photographed by those reporters again."

Lin Dong was startled for a moment, and then he remembered the 'second thing' he wanted to deal with.

Journalists, media, public opinion...

After losing in the final, frankly speaking, everyone from the Dragon Country Basketball Association to the domestic fans showed great tolerance to the players of the basketball team.

Losing is a loss, but after all, he has led the Dragon Kingdom to complete a historical breakthrough, has reached the Olympic finals, and is the runner-up.

And whether it's Dayao's 18 points and 13 rebounds, or Lin Dong's 58 points and 9 assists, or roughly 9 points and 5 rebounds, or even Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian and other young players have certain performances, There are even highlight moments...

What else can the fans be dissatisfied with in such a game?

Most fans showed gratitude and blessings, and they also showed more expectations for the future.

But the Dragon Kingdom is a Dragon Kingdom after all. With a population of 1.2 billion, the forest is so big that it would be really strange if there weren't even a few strange birds.

Of course there are people who complain, especially those who don't understand football. It doesn't matter what the difference in strength is, it just cares that you lost to the United States.

Losing to the United States just won’t do! It’s just that these people lack the spirit of fighting and the determination to confront American imperialism!

They are talking about national sentiments with the intention of provoking some wars and stoking some fans who don't know much about football to side with them.

The effect is minimal, after all, the majority of people are sensible.

But how could these people give up? Seeing that they couldn't keep up the rhythm, they turned around and began to attack the girlfriends of the team who had shown their faces on the Greek stadium before.

——These women should not be on the field at all! They disrupted the mentality of the team members!

——You see in the semi-finals before, everyone was so fierce and accurate. How come you can't make a three-pointer or run against the US team? He must have been unable to bear the loneliness the night before and had a private meeting with the men's basketball team members, which made all the team members weak in the legs the next day!

——Especially Lin Dong’s girlfriend, that woman is a mixed race of Japanese and American! This is definitely an enemy. This is the vixen beside King Zhou, the Su Daji of the 22nd century!

——Hey, look, every time those women appear in the camera, this woman is in C position. I guess she created this girlfriend group and all that!

——The word "sex" has a knife on its head! Bone scraper!

——I respect Lin Dong, but I definitely don’t approve of his girlfriend! Must break up! Even after we break up, he is still our good idol!

--right! separate! separate! separate! Is there no good girl to choose from in the Dragon Kingdom? Why do you have to find an American... no, Japanese!

Although the rhythm of leading the nation's righteousness cannot be carried away, the rhythm of leading women is still very stable...

Many fans have just come into contact with basketball because of Lin Dong and the strength of this national team. They don’t know what strength is. They can’t imagine the difference in defensive intensity between the American team and the semifinal team. If they only look at the performance of the Dragon Country team... …Besides, everyone has jealousy.

You are a sports star and a high-quality idol. You get so much money and enjoy so much cheering. What’s the point of being more demanding and stricter on you?

It's okay to praise you for bringing glory to the country, but if even those girls with exposed navels become the object of praise, wouldn't it corrupt the social atmosphere and bring bad luck to children?

Besides, don’t forget that there is one of the largest combat groups behind this argument: women!

If they don't scold that Yuya, where will they get the chance?

Simple people from the Dragon Kingdom are always easily incited in this era...

As a result, public opinion finally turned around.

There are very few people who attack the team and players, but there are really many people who attack the girlfriend group. Even though some rational fans are calling on everyone to look at the problem fairly, they still cannot suppress this overwhelming wave.

Especially Yuya's identity is intolerable to the Chinese people.

So much so that Sun Yue and others quickly asked his girlfriends to return home quietly as soon as the game ended. The original plan to travel to Greece after the game ended without any problems.

And this is the second "after" that Lin Dong wants to be kind to... But how can he deal with the aftermath?

At this time, no matter what public relations or statements you make, you will never be able to calm down the fans who have been provoked.

What's more, to be honest, Lin Dong doesn't want to do this so-called public relations and so-called compromise at all.

Why should he hurt the people around him and compromise with a group of trolls because of a fabricated charge?

But if you don't respond in some way... don't look at Yuya, who has been laughing and joking all day long and trying to amuse herself in the past two days, but that's just because she is worried that she will be in a bad mood after losing the game, and she doesn't want to bring her troubles to herself again.

Just looking at how cautious she was when going out in the past few days, how frightened she was when reading comments on the Internet, and how frequently she woke up at night, Lin Dong knew that this girl actually had quite a psychological problem.

Not everyone can bear such overwhelming criticism, let alone a girl who has nothing to do with this matter.

Just as he was thinking about it, Yuya continued to chirp.

"Here, I've prepared yours too!" Yuya said as he excitedly took out another pair of sunglasses.

Those are men's large sunglasses. It doesn't matter whether they are handsome or not. The main thing is that they are big enough to cover the face. Of course, they also have to be equipped with a sun visor.

"Hey, hey, if you bring these, you won't be recognized so easily. Let's have fun and play as much as we want today!" Yuya said proudly.

Lin Dong threw away the sunhat and sunglasses she handed him, then grabbed her little hand, dragged her over and sat on his lap.

Yuya was overjoyed for a moment, thinking that this guy was lustful, and said shyly: "Sakura and Haruko are still waiting for us outside..."

Lin Dong smiled, exhaled a long breath, and held her little hand firmly in his hand.

"Don't worry about those two little pieces of wood."

Lin Dong smiled and hugged the woman who had been with him since high school, and whispered in her ear the words that made her heart beat.

"Let's get married!"
