Legendary Basketball Tycoon

In mid-August, New York City has a temperate continental humid climate. Coupled with the fact that New York is close to the sea and affected by the ocean, it is already very cool.

But in the Island Garden Arena, it was really full of enthusiasm, and the sound of the team's "pop" and "pop" was heard everywhere!

Since the Island Garden Arena is currently closed, people outside can only hear the sound but cannot see the situation inside.

Why does the home stadium of the New York Hans make these sounds?

In August, it is reasonable to say that the team's preseason has not yet started, and there should not be anyone playing in the arena!

So who is in the arena?

Here I must solemnly introduce to you the team that is training to play in the Island Garden Arena.

All the players of the "Golden Generation" who are absolutely No. 1 in the history of China are training in this arena.

The previous life is the team that created the history of men's basketball and reached the best results in the quarterfinals of the World Championships.

Why does the National Men's Basketball Team play in the home stadium of the New York Hans? That's because New York is relatively close to the Canadian World Championships, so the Basketball Association specifically called Bruce to mention it.

The sensible Bruce immediately took the initiative to concentrate all the training equipment in the arena and the assigned staff team to the national men's basketball team.

Of course the arena is also free to use.

And these are all private sponsorships of Bruce, and the national team doesn't need to spend any money this time.

We must know that it is the 90s, not to mention how expensive the NBA's modern sports training equipment is, just to mention that the "staff headquarters" configured by Bruce for the national men's basketball team is definitely quite luxurious.

Where is the luxury?

First of all, let me introduce to you that the chief of staff of the "Headquarters of Staff" is Rick Carlisle.

This is definitely worthy of the Chinese fans, the famous coach is in charge.

Considering that Comrade Rick Carlisle is still a rookie and has been serving as the team's chief assistant, there is usually little room for him to play.

So Bruce wanted to give Rick Carlisle a chance. Anyway, Paul Westphal was in charge of the regular season, and Rick Carlisle only had the right to suggest.

Since they are all suggestions, suggestions here are not suggestions, so Comrade Rick Carlisle, congratulations on your winning.

Rick Carlisle was so excited when he received Bruce’s invitation at the time. You know that he is relatively unknown now. If he can give advice to a big country like China as the general staff, then no one can think of it. of.

What follows is the other members of the "General Staff Headquarters."

The offensive coach is Doug Koslin, who specializes in the offensive aspects of the men's basketball team.

The defensive coach is Alvin Gentry, who specializes in men's basketball defense.

These two people only arrange the usual confrontation training for the men's basketball team.

That's right, Bruce called up all the New York Hans, except for head coach Paul Westphal, to serve the national men's basketball team.

They are all former coaches at the level of famous coaches, and Bruce's patriotism is nothing to say.

Plus the chief trainer Aaron Nelson and team doctor Thomas Carter.

This configuration, I see all my heart, and the configuration of the American men's basketball team is comparable to that of the national men's basketball team, and the configuration of other teams can disappear.

Of course, this is only the Bruce request that they only need to cooperate with the men's basketball team to participate in the World Championships, so let's forget about the Asian Games. Besides, the coaches also need time to rest, right.

If you really want to bring this configuration to the Asian Games, Bruce still feels ashamed. The **** teams in Asia are not enough for the current men's basketball team.

I still use these famous marshals to accompany them, they are not children, they are playing personally!

So if the national men's basketball team still fails to reach the semifinals this time, Bruce will have to vomit blood out of anger.

Brothers, I have been dispatched to this place for you all, you have to stand up!

After talking about Bruce's configuration, let's talk about China's configuration.

The head coach is Jiang Xingquan, the chief assistant is Gong Luming, the second assistant is Li Qiuping, and the team leader is Li Yuanwei.

This time, because the two intercontinental games are linked together, after the World Championships, they have to take a break and fly to Long Island, Japan to play in the Asian Games.

So this time the men's basketball team brought 12 players to New York to participate in training camps.

A list of the "Golden Generation" of the men's basketball team.

Center: Shan Tao, Ji Minshang

Power forwards: Gong Xiaobin, Liu Yudong, Wu Naiqun

Small forwards: Sun Jun, Zheng Wu, Ding Wei

Shooting guards: Hu Weidong, Wu Qinglong

Point guards: Ah Dejiang, Li Xiaoyong

The competition is fierce!

This is the strongest lineup that the national team can take so far.

Generally speaking, Yao Ming and the others are still young, and basically won't have a chance to play until after 2000.

...

However, according to this lineup, it is appropriate to enter the quarterfinals.

The training camp is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

However, there were still discordant voices, and Master Jiang couldn't listen to Bruce's staff to advise him.

Looking at foreign faces that are younger than Gong Luming, Mr. Jiang also feels that this kid is here, you haven't been born when I was playing!

Give me advice at this age, do you have all the hair!

In line with the principle of my team being the master, Mr. Jiang couldn't listen at all, and he arranged his own tactical ideas on his own.

The chief assistant Gong Luming next to him can only defuse his temper. The former is his elder brother and old partner, and the latter is a staff member specially invited by Bruce for the men's basketball team. The most important thing is that he does have this ability.

What Gong Luming could say, there was nothing to say, he could only be a firefighter on both sides.

And Rick Carlisle was also a little angry. They took a vacation comfortably, but they received a notice from the boss to help the Chinese National Men's Basketball Team improve their strength. This is nothing.

But you can't take our kindness as donkey liver and lungs!

Suddenly everyone felt unbalanced!

Seeing that the contradiction between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, the other senior leaders of the Basketball Association are also watching, and some are also reporting the situation.

You said that Comrade Xiao Liu, who is patriotic, has done this. It’s better for you to be old, and you don’t even give up any face. You think that you are a big-name national team handsome and triumphant, for fear that you won’t be able to change the world without you.

After receiving the call from Rick Carlisle, Bruce didn't say anything, but temporarily comforted everyone.

If you don't know how to lift up, and shamelessly, your old style of play is about to be outdated.

Indeed, the current technical and tactical play arranged by the head coach of China has continued to dominate the Asian arena for several years. There is no problem at all, but if you encounter strong teams in Europe and America, then you wait to be abused!

Bruce angrily made the call directly to the office of the basket tube center.

It is clearly stated that Mr. Jiang is required to "dismiss get out of class" immediately.

It's not bad, why is Mr. Jiang also a well-known famous coach in the country, if get out of class suddenly ends, who will bring the national team!

Bruce knew it was troublesome. After all, winning a meritorious coach would not justify the outside world.

However, for the national team's performance, Bruce patiently discussed a compromise with the director of the Basketball Center.

Gong Luming temporarily took over the position of head coach, and Rick Carlisle was promoted to the position of chief assistant. On the face of it, Gong Luming was in charge. In fact, the overall gameplay of the team has been secretly handed over to Rick Carlisle.

It's not that Gong Luming is not good, but the current coaching philosophy of domestic coaches is still relatively backward. After all, no one is as rich as those coaches in the United States.

This is why Bruce asked to arrange several Chinese coaches to be gilded.

Learn more advanced concepts so that you can fight for your country in the future.

This is also the best result. As for the last place where Mr. Jiang was going, the Basketball Tube Center ordered him to return to China to be the director of the Provincial Sports Commission.

The hot-tempered old man Jiang finally left New York.

The current national men's basketball team can finally let go of their hands and feet boldly, and the team is much more active than before.

Next stop, goal-Toronto, let's go!
