Chapter 79 I'll teach you how to play forward

But Yao Ming is also very clear, and it is not the reporter's fault for looking down on Lin Yu.

The Dream Team has always had a tradition of bringing in college players, which has created the impression that college players are mascots at the Olympics.

Lin Yu didn't explain anything about this. After all, some things can only be broken by strength.

Just like the myth of Argentina defeating the Dream Team!
Lin Yu also knew that the Spanish Ducks were not an easy opponent to deal with.

In the original history, it was during this game that Yao Ming angrily threw the towel.

When being interviewed by the media after the game, Yao Ming also failed to control his emotions.

"I am not just a little regretful today, but very disappointed, even more disappointed than two years ago at the Axe Mountain Asian Games and the Indiana World Championships. We just changed our skin, but our hearts have not changed. We gave up the game and did not cherish the opportunity in front of us. We are really sorry for the old players who were eliminated. If they don't burst out in silence, they will die in silence."

Lin Yu didn’t know whether the outcome would change if he were included in this history.

But there was one thing he was very clear about.

In the history of the men's basketball team, Yao Ming would never throw the towel in anger, and the Spanish Ducks would not win so easily.

because……

He is also a tough guy!

8 month 15 day.

Before the men's basketball team's game against the Spanish Ducks.

In the locker room, Harris was still explaining things to Lin Yu.

"Dayu, don't feel pressured. This is the first time that the men's basketball team has used you as the core of the organization. If we lose, we lose. Don't worry too much about it."

Lin Yu's position in the team at this time is an organizing forward.

Since the men's basketball team had more losses than wins against the Spanish Ducks, Harris and Jonas discussed and decisively decided to use the first game to train the players.

Lin Yu didn't say much, just nodded.

At 14 p.m., the men's basketball team entered the court and began warming up.

When Lin Yu was warming up, he found that there were many special spectators on the sidelines.

“Emeka, long time no see.”

Seeing an acquaintance, Lin Yu greeted Okafor directly.

When Okafor heard Lin Yu's words, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He actually didn't want to say hello to this guy who made him a background board.

But that would be rude.

"Long time no see. But let me first say that I'm not here to cheer you on. Allen and Stephen said they wanted to watch your game, so we came together."

As he spoke, Okafor looked at Iverson and Marbury beside him.

Iverson then said, "Hello Lin Yu, I'm Allen Iverson. I came here mainly to see what kind of people Auerbach has chosen."

Looking at Iverson in front of him, Lin Yu replied: "Don't worry, Allen, I won't let you down."

Before Iverson could speak, Marbury took the lead.

"I hope I won't be disappointed. I don't want to make this trip in vain."

"I really want to play against you, Lin, but we may not have the chance to play against each other in the Olympics. Next season in the NBA, I will personally learn how good you are. Now just treat me as a spectator!"

There was a hint of fighting spirit in Marbury's eyes at this time.

Iverson didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement with Marbury's words.

Lin Yu did not continue chatting with the others because the competition was about to begin.

Although the men's basketball team does not seem strong from the outside, the reputation of the two No. 1 picks is loud enough.

Therefore, the match between the men's basketball team and the Spanish Ducks is also the focus of the group stage. Therefore, Meilijia also specially broadcast this match live.
Barkley and Smith, as commentators, are ready to start commenting on the game.

"Charles, in this game, what do you think China's two top draft picks Yao and Lin will do?"

"Kenny, how Lin will perform in this game depends entirely on whether he can adapt to world-class competition. The competition in the Olympics is very intense."

"In the NCAA, his opponent Okafor can only sit on the bench and watch the water dispenser in the Dream Team. If Lin can't adapt to the world-class competition, I think his performance may be very bad."

Although Lin Yu is one of the protagonists of this focus battle, the outside world generally has a pessimistic view of Lin Yu.

"Charles, what you said makes sense. The game is about to begin. Let's look forward to Lin Yu's performance!"

The starting lineup of the men's basketball team: center Yao Ming, power forward Lin Yu, small forward Li Nan, shooting guard Guo Shiqiang, and point guard Liu Wei.

The starting lineup of the Spanish Ducks: center Pau Gasol, power forward Felipe Reyes, small forward Jabba Hosa, shooting guard Navarro, and point guard Calderon.

At 14:30, the referee's whistle sounded.

哔!
The group stage officially begins!
"Yao succeeded in the jump ball, and Dayu began to organize the offense. According to Coach Harris, although Dayu is nominally a power forward, he will be allowed to move more to the third position today and play as an organizing small forward."

Coach Zhang, who was the commentator, also started explaining to the fans at this time.

Lin Yu carried the ball to the top of the arc, and Spanish Ducks power forward Felipe Reyes saw Lin Yu dribbling.

Philip Reyes also became interested in this NBA No. 1 pick.

He started trash talking in English.

"Lin Yu, right? You should be able to understand English, right?"

"College basketball is on a completely different level from international competitions. I will use my strength to show you what a world-class competition is."

"By the way, welcome to the Olympics. I'll teach you how to play as a power forward!"

When Lin Yu heard Philip Reyes' trash talk, a smile appeared on his face.

he knows.

The Philip Reyes in front of us is an outstanding white inside player.

He won the Spanish Duck League MVP twice in his career, the Spanish Duck League Finals MVP twice, was selected to the Spanish Duck League All-Star Team four times, and was selected to the European League First Team in 2.

but……

I'm stronger!
Without any hesitation, Lin Yu jumped up and shot directly towards Philip Reyes.

Although Philip Reyes reacted quickly, he was still a step slow.

Moreover, Philip Reyes is only 2 meters tall and his arm span is inferior to Lin Yu, not to mention the difference in jumping ability.

Dayao watched the basketball draw an arc in the air and started to fight for position with his wife under the basket.

Swish!
The basketball went into the net, and Lin Yu helped the men's basketball team score the first goal of the game.

"Dayu took the shot, but he was a bit reckless on this one... Good shot! Dayu successfully made a three-pointer against the defense of Spanish power forward Philip Reyes!"

Coach Zhang perfectly demonstrated what it means to change one's expression in a second.

on the field.

Lin Yu landed on the ground and looked at Philip and Reyes, who responded with trash talk.

"Is this the level of a world-class competition? It doesn't seem much better than the NCAA."

A blush flashed across Philip Reyes’ face.

Just finished talking trash, and then got slapped in the face.

What the hell... Even Philip Reyes, as a veteran who has been fighting in the professional arena for a long time, felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
