Chapter 424 - Against Spain

At the end of the game, the players on both sides shook hands very friendly. For the players of the national team, they can rarely communicate with the NBA's big-name stars, naturally, they don't hate to say two games.

Shashevsky took a breath and said to D'Antoni, "It's unexpected to me that Zhang Guan didn't show up. I was worried that Zhang Guan would cause us a lot of trouble before the game. Worrying is unnecessary."

"Yeah, among the twelve of the Chinese team, there are eleven people who all got the chance to play. Only Zhang Guan didn't play. I always felt like it was a little too deliberate. Maybe the Chinese team is keeping something deliberately. Isn't it? Knowing that they can't win us, deliberately did not let Zhang Guan play, to avoid leaking tactics." D'Antoni frowned.

"Why, you still have hope for Zhang Guan? In the game, I have been thinking about this question, why did Yunas not send Zhang Guan to play, I finally figured it out just now." Shashevsky said.

"Why?" D'Antoni asked immediately.

"That's because Zhang Guan couldn't reach the level of playing on the court at all." Shashevski continued, "We only considered Zhang Guan's physical talent before but ignored a critical issue, that is, time, training time it takes a basketball player. It takes us six or seven years or more to train a basketball player. Zhang Guan is only 22 years old this year. If he wants to become a basketball player, at least he has to start training at the age of sixteen, but he appeared on the track and field before he was eighteen. It's impossible to have extra time to participate in basketball training, so I think that Zhang Guan may not have that strength now. Be able to play."

"How is this possible, should he always be a mascot?" D'Antoni shook his head, "If he has no strength, how did he get into the Chinese men's basketball team?"

Shashevsky shrugged, "I don't know. China has its national conditions. There are many things that we cannot say clearly."

...

The loss of the men's basketball team to the US team is something expected by fans. However, the eleven men's basketball team all got the chance to play. Only Zhang Guan did not play, but many fans started to discuss and quarrel.

Before the game, a lot of fans were still looking forward to Zhang Guan playing a big game. However, Zhang Guan sat on the cold bench of the whole game, which made these fans very disappointed, and all kinds of doubts followed.

Some people questioned Yunas' formation and even questioned. The other eleven people all got the chance to play. Why didn't Zhang Guan play? But more people are questioning Zhang Guan, thinking that he simply cannot reach the level of a professional basketball player, so he did not play.

This question first fermented on the Internet.

"I thought Zhang Guan was able to exert his strength in this game and slam the American team. As a result, he didn't play at all, which disappointed me!"

"Eleven other people got the chance to play, but Zhang Guan didn't, why is that? I have said that Zhang Guan's joining the men's basketball is a hype, he would not play basketball at all! If he really If you can play basketball, why didn't you get the chance to play in the last garbage time?"

"I'm blind too. I was so optimistic about Zhang Guan before. I thought he could be selected by the NBA so he must be strong. I didn't expect to be a parallel. I looked away."

"Zhang Guan should take part in track and field competitions and not play basketball! He doesn't have that strength, what a big tail wolf! We have so many excellent athletes in the CBA, why should we choose Zhang Guan into the men's basketball team!"

"Some days ago, someone said that Zhang Guan spent money on the back door and entered the men's basketball team. I still don't believe it. But after yesterday's game with the US team, I believed it.

"According to the rumored news, Yunas was very dissatisfied with Zhang Guan's selection to the men's basketball team, but he was unable to cope with the pressure above, so he simply did not arrange for Zhang Guan to play!"

Various rumors and rumors are flooding the Internet, and there is little information beneficial to Zhang Guan. Zhang Guan, however, turned a deaf ear to it, and he began to prepare for the second round of tennis.

The second round of tennis is at 10:30 am on August 12th. Zhang Guan after a day of rest at this time is when he is full of energy, but Zhang Guan still intends to make a quick decision. The basketball game retains physical strength.

Zhang Guan's opponent in the second round is Carreri, a 32-year-old veteran in Argentina who has been playing professional tennis for 13 years. The previous world ranking only reached 29th.

Carrera does not have tennis talents like Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic. He is no longer young and has no chance of winning in the face of a home battle.

The whole stadium was full of cheers for Zhang Guan. The game had not yet started. Carrera was overwhelmed by the momentum of the scene, and even the service became weak. Zhang Guan did not give the opponent the slightest chance. Eventually 6-1, 6-2 scored the victory and successfully advanced to the third round.

After lunch, Zhang Guan rushed to the men's basketball meeting place again, because, at 16:45 in the afternoon, the men's basketball team will usher in the second opponent of the Spanish national team in the group stage.

The current strength of the Spanish national team is second only to the United States team. They won the championship in the 2006 men's basketball world championship and climbed to the top of the world ranking. Today, two years later, the Spanish national team lineup has been strengthened compared to two years ago.

However, there is one thing that is very detrimental to the Spanish team, that is, they just changed the coach. The coach who led the Spanish team to the World Championships was dismissed to Hernández in June. The new head coach is Renesse. Although he is also a famous European coach, he only brought to the team more than one moth ago so the degree of coordination with the players is not enough.

"There are also several NBA players in the Spanish team, Paul Gasol needless to say, as well as Calderon and Fernandez. Calderon is also a NBA starter anyway, and can also play close to 10+9 in the NBA. The data is a very good point guard. Although Fernandes has been playing in the NBA, his playstyle is more powerful in international games. There is also Marc Gasol, the pillar of the future Grizzlies; Golden Boy Rubio also in this Spanish team, these two guys should only be considered as potential stocks of the Spanish team now. Ogio Rodríguez, a role player in the NBA, George Gabayosa, this guy has also played in the NBA! There are also Navarro, Reyes, Jiminez, Lopez... The Spanish team has a lot of strong players, this game is not easy to play."

Zhang Guan put down the Spanish team's roster and carefully recalled the game of the Chinese men's basketball team against Spain.

"I remember this game. At the last minute, the national team was still leading, but in the end, the score was equalized and entered into overtime. Entering overtime is not good for the national team. Let me terminate the game in the last minute of the regular season!"
