I’m a Big Boss in the NBA

The whole conference is to encourage, encourage and encourage again, come on, come on, and come on... Talk about the goal, how many medals to get, and how many gold medals to get for some projects...

Anyway, nothing happened to their men's basketball team.

After the meeting, Xu Xuan was going to get together with Ah Lian and Dayao. He had planned to eat together tonight.

But before getting ready to go, the team manager Pelinka called.

After the general manager on the other end of the phone connected: "Xu, there is good news, we have signed Frank..."

...

Xu Xuan was taken aback.

Really signed Frank?

He suddenly remembered that night that Frank's contract seemed to have expired, but it has not been renewed. Xu Xuan was wondering if it is possible to sign Frank to the Lakers.

To be honest, in the past two years in the Pacers, Xu Xuan and Frank really get along well, and both sides also know very well, and Frank is willing to delegate power to Xu Xuan.

Do you see, who is the coach of the Lakers led by James?

Isn't it the guy in front of me?

Frank doesn't have a strong desire to control the team. He likes to delve into tactics, but he is not really interested in the power and management of the team.

"How many years have you signed?"

"Three years, 2+1 contract, we have team options for the third year." Pelinka replied.

Xu Xuan nodded. Three years is normal. Frank's previous two-point contract were both three years.

After all, the head coach is not a player, and he can't think about long-term stability. If he can't change the core player, the head coach can't go on.

In three years, there are almost 6 million less than 7 million a year.

In any case, he is also a champion coach. The salary is not high, but it is not low.

It's just fine.

As soon as he got the news, Xu Xuan also sent his blessings to Frank on Twitter and expressed his excitement.

It is really good to continue working with Frank, knowing each other well, there is no need to change coaches to have a familiar process.

The Pacers' mentality is a bit broken.

After winning the championship, the core players left, and now even the champion coach is gone.

Helpless.

But they were also well prepared. In fact, if it weren't for Xu Xuan, Frank would have stepped down long ago. Now it happens that Nate McMillan is the head coach.

Frank himself is also very excited. For him to be able to cooperate with Xu Xuan again, it is simply not too beautiful for him.

Maybe he still has a chance to win another championship, then another, another, another... Then he rubbed the old Popovich under him.

Margot, he drools thinking about that scene.

Frank also gave a lot of face. As soon as the contract was finalized, he went to Los Angeles and began to play a role in the team lineup and collocation.

He also told Xu Xuan that he might go to New York to watch his game.

At this time, Ah Lian, Dayao and others also learned from Xu Xuan that Frank joined the Lakers and expressed their congratulations.

The champion coach and the champion core appear on the same team again, which in itself brings a lot of reverie.

That night, the host and the guest enjoyed themselves.

It is not the first time that Xu Xuan has appeared in the national team. Xu Xuan came back during the Asian Championships last year, so a group of national players are familiar with Xu Xuan with a little strangeness, but also with a little admiration.

That's the winner of the championship!

NBA's FMVP!

It's completely different from someone's previous championship.

It's genuine.

...

The next day, the men's basketball team began training.

Today is the 18th, and the delegation means that the group rushed to Brazil on the 20th.

It could have been earlier, just like the time in London in 2012. The delegation arrived at the Olympic venue early, but Brazil is different from London.

It's not a mockery, the officials here have issued various notices.

For example, don’t go out at will, don’t go out alone, don’t expose your wealth, play golf with peace of mind, prepare toilet water and mosquito nets, and bring more snacks...a series of preparation measures.

Most parts of Brazil are in the tropics, with a tropical rainforest climate in the north, a savanna climate in the middle, and a humid subtropical monsoon climate in parts of the south.

Rio de Janeiro’s climate is mainly a savannah, where the Olympic Games are held, with high temperatures throughout the year and a lot of mosquitoes...

Mosquitoes are the most annoying.

During the training camp, Xu Xuan's strength once again surprised the national players.

The strength of this hanging man is better than when they saw it last year.

And the improvement is not even a little bit.

The hands of all nations are tired.

Margot, it's already difficult to surpass, you are still making progress here, can you leave someone a way to survive?

It is indeed improved. Xu Xuan remembers that last year, his score was only 580 points, and his talent was very poor, two platinum and one gold.

And now, Xu Xuan's heart moved, and a bright large screen appeared in front of him in an instant.

Xu Xuan: Male

Age: 20

Rating: 710 (Provisional rating: 760, cyan!)

Have talent:

Stephen Curry's three points-platinum (advanced)

Alan Iverson's breakthrough-platinum

Russell Westbrook's body-diamond

Jason Williams' pass-platinum (in advanced)

...

With a total score of 710, three platinum and one diamond, two of which are still in the advanced stage. Maybe they will succeed in the advanced stage. At that time, Xu Xuan will have three diamonds!

Gee!

It was called Meng at that time!

...

The head coach of the men’s national basketball team is still Coach Gong. Last year’s head coach of the Asian Championships was Xu Xuan’s old acquaintance.

For the strength Xu Xuan showed, Coach Gong was very pleased.

Although this men's basketball team doesn't have much mission, Xu Xuan, maybe he can make it out of the group stage or even the semi-finals?

On the 20th, head to Brazil as a group.

It was said that it was a collective, but some went there, and some did not go, but still in batches.

But the men's basketball team followed the team.

Departing on the 20th and arriving on the 21st, I spent the whole day on the plane. This was not considered the early waiting time. After coming down, even Xu Xuan felt a little tired.

It's really not a human being on the plane for such a long time.

And this is different from what he usually does when flying back to China or playing games. The plane is too crowded.

It made him unable to do anything he wanted.

After the 21st arrived, the men’s basketball team took two days off. One was to rest, but to familiarize everyone with the environment.

The game will not start at one and a half, and there are still nearly 20 days left.

It is worth mentioning that this year the American team also came here, and he also participated in this year's Olympics.

On the night Xu Xuan first arrived, this guy worked with Durant and others to block Xu Xuan.

Needless to say about the relationship with pickled peppers, iron buddies, although Xu Xuan is gone, the relationship between the two will not change.

And Durant, the hanging man, is purely here for dinner. I don’t know where he heard that the Chinese team brought a lot of special food here. The American delegation arrived earlier than the Chinese delegation. He is boring.

There are more than 500 slums in Rio de Janeiro, most of which are built on the hillside, and live in poverty of nearly one million people. In Rosinia, the largest slum in Latin America, gangsters carrying AK47s can often be seen in the streets and alleys, and there are many messy things.

Although the Brazilian police patrolled day and night during this period, they still couldn't stand it. There would be a few unlucky ghosts.

Therefore, all major delegations meant that they would not go out unless they could.

Durant wanted to go out, but no one was with him, and he didn't dare to go.

What should I do if I went out and was killed?

He will join the Bay Area to win the championship.

Seeing the lineup of the US men's basketball team, Xu Xuan slapped his tongue.

Gorgeous.

Look, the head coach is still K, the point guards are Irving and Lowry, the shooting guards are Klay and DeRozan, and the small forwards are Durant, Pickle, Butler, Barnes, Anthony, and power forwards. There is Green, the center has Jordan and Cousins.

But this time pickled peppers registered for the second position, and Anthony reported for the fourth position.

All-star lineup, this is a true all-star lineup. The only one who is relatively less famous, Harrison Barnes, was also the master who averaged 10+ points per game last season.

The dream team was not built, and Xu Xuan saw that this lineup was all tingling scalp.

Do you want to fight them?

It seems that the champion doesn't need to think about it, and see if he can hit the medal.

However, international basketball is still different from the NBA. It is too difficult for outside players to score under the basket in the international arena, especially for outside players who are used to NBA rules and the size of the court.

The NBA has more space in the three-point line, more paint, and three seconds of defense...

But this is also the reason why a player of the level of Carlos Arroyo can beat the US team in the international arena. Good shots are the advantage!

To put it bluntly, as long as you are accurate, the American team will not necessarily be so crushed, but if they are also accurate, you can't help it.

After all, the team is too strong and leads too much. If Xu Xuan took the Pacers who won last season to start with the dream team, it would be reliable, but now these national players?

forget it.

But Xu Xuan didn't plan to admit defeat. The goal this time was to fight for medals!

The men's basketball team has never won an Olympic medal. If it can get it this time, it will be a record.

It's not that Xu Xuan has no ambitions, but a teammate...

...

After a few people familiar with the American team got together, it was training and various friendly matches.

The Chinese team, due to Xu Xuan's relationship, played more than three friendly matches with the American team.

Xu Xuan wants these national players to feel more about the world's top basketball strength, and what is the difference from their usual games. They are all in the same group. The following must be encountered.

Not only that, Xu Xuan is also preparing to apply for the China game with the league next season.

Even the preseason will do.

Where is the progress without communication?

Xu Xuan is now considered to be a superstar player in the league. He now considers not only himself, but also wants more domestic players to be able to enter the NBA.

After all, no matter how disliked the NBA, their strength is undeniable.

...

The 12-man roster of the Chinese team this year has not changed much from last year's Asian Championships.

Xu Xuan, A Lian, Zhou Qi, Da Wang, Zou Yuchen, Guo Ailun, Zhao Jiwei, Sui Ran, Zhou Peng, Zhai Xiaochuan, Xiao Ding and Li Gen.

Compared with last year's Asian Championships, there are only two adjustments. Sui Ran and Zou Yuchen replaced Liu Wei and Zhao Tailong respectively.

There is nothing to say about the lineup, everything depends on Xu Xuan and Ah Lian.

Others, even this Zhou Qi, who was just selected by Houston, are actually pendants.

It can be seen from the warm-up match that the level of performance of this group of national players is four words: a mess!

No wonder the previous life was swept out by a 5-0 sweep and couldn't win a game.

You know, in the past life, before the start of the Olympics, the strength of the men's basketball team was ranked third by those media experts (this bit of poison is terrible), second only to the United States men's national basketball team and the Spanish national men's basketball team. , Venezuela's national men's basketball team, Argentina's national men's basketball team, but finally played an embarrassing 0 wins and 5 losses.

However, the strength of the UAE has been maintained well. After these two days of training, coupled with the warm-up match, Xu Xuan can clearly feel that UAE is not high, but at least still has the level of NBA quality role players.

Not to mention other, his attributes alone are particularly suitable for today's NBA.

This kind of strength is actually not much improved in the domestic league. To bully the children, Xu Xuan already has an idea in his heart. He is ready to wait until the end of the Olympic Games to explore the tone of the U.S. League. If possible, the inside of the Lakers. , You can definitely have one more Titan ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I can also have multiple helpers.

After slapped his face, Xu Xuan stopped thinking about the future. He first enjoyed his national team career and practiced for a while to get used to the full arc-shaped three-point line.

...

Half an hour passed quickly, and the day's training was over.

However, under the leadership of Xu Xuan and Ah Lian, no one dared to “get off work” on time to become a “civil servant”, and they all stayed silently in the arena to train.

Those who are stronger than you are training, why are they weaker?

Xu Xuan didn't say anything, I'll take the lead, follow along if you like, leave if you don't, Xu Xuan won't care.

This is Dayao's business.

...

The opening time of the Olympic Games is 7pm on August 5th local time.

The first game of the men's basketball team will not start until August 7. The second game, the opening game is Australia playing France.

It is worth mentioning that this year’s Olympics are divided into two groups. After drawing lots, China, the United States, Australia, France, Serbia, Venezuela are in Group A, and Group B is Croatia, Spain, Lithuania, Argentina, Brazil, Nigeria. .

Each group eliminates two teams to enter the quarterfinals. The competition system is a group reincarnation, that is, points are counted for each game.

Eliminating two in each group, in fact, there is still great hope for the Chinese team, even in previous lives.

Because although there is a US team in Group A, there are also two teams that have failed in the qualifying rounds. The number one is hard to compete, but it should be possible to advance.

It's a pity, let alone promotion, it's hard to get a victory.

Xu Xuan flipped through the schedule and found that the first game of the men's basketball team was actually playing the United States.

This made him a little speechless, and he suffered a huge blow here, no wonder he couldn't win the next game...
