Chapter 141 Conversation with Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian

He defeated the Lakers on the first day, and the next day he also played the Clippers at the Staples Arena. Although the Clippers have Paul and Griffin, they are not yet the opponents of the Sun Storm Trio. In this game, Anthony was full of fire. In the face of the slightly improved Clippers, he was ruthless and played for 30 minutes. He scored 54 points and overturned the Clippers, and our protagonist Zhao Yue seemed to have deliberately let Anthony perform in this game. He only got 15 points and 15 rebounds, Nash contributed 12 points and 18 assists, and the Sun Storm trio contributed 81 points together. In addition to the good performance of Iverson, Carter, Fry and others, the Sun's run The game was played to the fullest, which was the highest score of 137:110 played by the Suns this season, and the Suns scored 137 points in 48 minutes, shocking the whole league.

After defeating the Clippers, the Suns returned to Phoenix' home game against the Houston Rockets, but they didn't expect that Yao Ming, who had retired from this game, also came to Phoenix with the Rockets. Zhao Yue faintly felt that Yao Ming was coming for himself, which was a kind of intuition, a man's intuition.

The Suns played very easily in this game. The current Rockets are no longer the Rockets in the boss's period, nor the Rockets in the Yao Mai period. In the face of the weak inside line of the Rockets, Zhao Yue can be said to be a request, and Anthony also played very easily. Nash scored two pairs again, and the Suns won at home. Rocket.

After the game, Zhao Yue received a phone call from Yao Ming, saying that he wanted to sit with him. Zhao Yue raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Sure enough, Yao Ming came to Phoenix for himself.

The two came to a cafe and saw that Yi Jianlian was already sitting there. After Zhao Yue took the lead in greeting, he said, "Brother Yao, how's it going? Life seems to be very leisurely after retirement.

Yao Ming smiled and said, "That's right, but the Shanghai team still has a lot of things to do, and it's not so idle."

Yi Jianlian took a soft sip of coffee and said, "Zhao Yue, Da Yao actually has something to discuss with you this time. In fact, I have wanted to tell you about this matter for a long time, but the recent game has been very tiring, so it has been put on hold."

Zhao Yue smiled and said, "I have probably guessed what it is."

Yao Ming said, "Since you have guessed it, I won't talk nonsense. Zhao Yue, you know I retired last year, but August is the London Olympic Games. It seems difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to reach the top eight in the Olympic Games."

Zhao Yue said, "Of course I know that there are many strong enemies in the Olympic men's basketball competition. Let's not talk about the Dream Team. Spain's Gasol brothers and Rubio, now add an Ibaka, Brazil's Neine, Argentina's Ginobili and Scola..." Zhao Yue said a series of names and team names, these Either a strong figure in the NBA or a well-known team in the international basketball world, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian frowned. There is nothing they can do. They have played for the national team for so long, so they naturally know this.

Yi Jianlian said, "Yes, in the face of such a strong enemy, it seems difficult for China to break out of the siege."

Yao Ming said, "Originally relying on the Arab League plus me, our national team still has a lot of strength, but now that I have retired, it seems a little difficult to rely only on the Arab League, so..."

"So you want me to join the national team!" Zhao Yue directly took over the stubble.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian nodded quickly when they heard this.

Zhao Yue said, "Well, I accept it, but Brother Yao and Brother Yi, is the situation of the national team really just as long as I join?"

Yi Jianlian said, "Of course, if you join the national team with your strength, the strength of the national team will be much stronger."

Zhao Yue said, "Is that right, Brother Yi? I don't think so."

Yao Ming said, "How do you say this?"

Zhao Yue said, "Yes, I joined the national team and may be able to help the national team out of the group stage, but this is still far from the trophy. What the Chinese national team lacks is not the inside line, but the outside line."

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian nodded one after another to agree with Zhao Yue's statement.

Zhao Yue continued: "Since the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, China, a great country with a population of more than 1.3 billion, has had a dream of supporting 21 years but has not come true. This is a dream of the greatest nation and the greatest movement and the most intimate contact. But so far, the closest contact between China, the greatest nation, and the greatest sports basketball has stopped at the eighth place under the leadership of Gong Luming at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics!

But it was the eighth place, but it made countless Chinese fans struggling in the dark see a glimmer of dawn before dawn!

So countless Chinese fans cried that day and burst into tears. Basketball, we are finally one step closer to you!

At that moment, at that extremely glorious moment, countless Chinese fans really thought that they were not far from pursuing their 12-year dream, maybe right in front of them!

But the reality is always cruel, which makes people dare not face it!

Chinese fans who have been watching the dawn for another eight years, a very painful eight years, and they have not even rushed into the first eight years!

Eight years later, at the 2004 Athens Olympics, under the leadership of Brother Yao, the Chinese team regained the long-lost eighth for all the Chinese fans who will never say defeat!

Tens of thousands of five-star red flags are flying over the Helinico Olympic Stadium, flying in the hearts of 1.3 billion excited Chinese people!

This is a day for the whole country to celebrate, and this is a day that will go down in history!

We are finally back, not far from the moment to complete the dream!

But Brother Yao and Brother Yi, is it really that simple? Where on earth is the Chinese team weak?

How difficult is the Chinese team! Although Brother Yao, roughly and Brother Yi can be on the inside, they don't even have an outside teammate who can share a heavy responsibility for him! Even if he has great ability, it's just hard to sing alone! If the Chinese team really wants to rush into the encirclement of the world powers, the first step is to find the strongest outside line of the Chinese team that can block the sky! Either a point guard like Nash or a point guard like Kobe!"

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian nodded one after another. They completely agreed with what Zhao Yue said, because he said all the problems that Chinese people did not want to admit, but had to admit, that is, in China, a country with a population of 1.3 billion, there is not even a strong outsider, not even a strong defender player!

Why on earth is this? Is it true that Chinese people's physique is not as good as others? Or is there something wrong with the Chinese basketball system?

The inside line of the Chinese team is the tallest in the world, and everyone is thinking about how to get into the inside line! Nowadays, all over China is full of tall people. In those training camps, there are always more than two meters of children!

Zhao Yue continued: "There is no excellent defender. No matter how powerful the insider is, he can only score by grabbing the second attack of rebounds and can't get a teammate's pass. Then this insider doesn't have to die on the field!"

Yao Ming said, "A Yue, we all know what you said, but it seems to be very difficult to solve."

Zhao Yue said, "Brother Yao, it has to be solved even if it is not easy to solve. This is the most urgent thing for the Chinese men's basketball team to solve at present, and it must be solved!"

That night, Zhao Yue talked with Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian for a long time. Because the team did not play the next day, Zhao Yue and the others were not worried about lack of sleep.

Back home, Dakota Fanning was still watching TV in the living room. Recently, Dakota's new film had just been filmed, and the later publicity work had not yet begun, so Dakota had a period of rest and immediately flew to Phoenix to accompany Zhao Yue.

Of course, Zhao Yue will not shut her out. To be honest, during Dakota's filming period, Zhao Yue was really dying, so on the night Dakota arrived, Zhao Yue fought with her all night and knew that she fell asleep in the early morning.

Now Zhao Yue, who just entered the door, saw Dakota with loose hair, her delicate lips seemed to shine, and her purple nightdress highlighted Dakota's wonderful figure. Looking at the snow-white lotus arms and tender thighs, Zhao Yue swallowed a mouthful of saliva and rushed up like a wolf. Dakota did not With a trace of resistance, Zhao Yue fell directly on the sofa...

The next morning, Zhao Yue woke up from his sleep. In fact, he was not asleep, but in the systematic training ground, he found that the Dakota beside him had disappeared. Zhao Yue smiled and knew that Dakota must have gone for breakfast.

Although Dakota is an actor, she is definitely a good woman with a good wife and mother. She does almost all the housework at home and is gentle and considerate. Such a woman seems difficult to find in China.

Zhao Yue put on his wide pajamas and sneaked into the kitchen and saw Dakota making sandwiches and salads. Zhao Yue hugged Dakota and gently kneaded his hands on the two peaks of Dakota.

Zhao Yue massaged the peak for Dakota and said, "Baby, this breakfast looks very good."

Dakota said in a slightly moaning and trembling voice, "Well... early in the morning... Why are you... Wash up and have breakfast."

Dakota's matter has been kneaded by Zhao Yue, and his legs softened, and he seemed to be unable to stand. Coupled with this ecstasy sound, Zhao Yue could not help it. He immediately lifted Dakota's nightdress and was in the kitchen...

After a happy breakfast, Zhao Yue accompanied Dakota to the airport. Last night, Dakota had already said that her sister Ellie Fanning would come today. It happened that Zhao Yue did not have a competition today, so Zhao Yue would accompany him to pick her up. Of course, Zhao Yue had nothing to say. After all, it was his sister-in-law. What does it matter?
