The Chinese team's warm-up match in Europe came to an end at the end of June.

After playing Canada and the Philippines in Bologna, the team flew back to Beijing to prepare for the upcoming Stankovic Cup in July.

For Li Liang, physical fitness and energy will be a test.

It's not that I'm afraid of injury, but the main thing is that my heart may be overwhelmed - because sometimes I can really get angry with my teammates.

After a successful victory over Canada, in the second game against the Philippines, Gong Luming did not let Li Liang go for the purpose of protecting the players and training the newcomers.

Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi and Guo Allen were also absent.

Li Liang sat on the sidelines as an assistant coach, watching the boys of the men's basketball team make various mistakes, fouls, and be sent off.

Li Liang thought to himself, if he was the head coach, I am afraid that he would not have to keep the golden throat treasure and the quick-acting heart pill.

In the end, the Chinese team lost to the Philippine team led by Blatche by 3 points.

Although it is not a problem for China to win the Philippines if it is the main force, the remaining players are also considered elite young players in China, and as a result, they can't beat the Philippines.

The hegemony of Chinese basketball in Asia has long been less stable than in the past.

It is impossible for Li Liang to participate in various events of the national team like Yao Ming.

The national team is indeed very intensive, and there are plenty of warm-up matches before the official competition.

It's no wonder that Yao Ming's NBA career is only a short 9 years, and in 9 years, he may play as many games as other players in 12 or 13 years.

The Chinese team's trip to Europe ended with a record of 4 wins and 1 loss.

I won all four games against European and American teams, but I lost against the Asian enemy Philippines, which is a bit of a pity.

However, Gong Luming is quite satisfied with this result, the purpose of the warm-up game is not to win, but more to find problems, solve problems, and train with competitions, so that the team as a whole can reach a good state.

For Gong Luming, after Li Liang came to the team, there was basically no big problem in running in.

Li Liang is too smart as a player, and his tactical awareness and ability are first-class.

Let him match with the players of the Chinese men's basketball team, which is equivalent to a high school student solving elementary school math problems - although some deviations and strange problems still feel inexplicable and inexplicable, most of the basic questions do not cost their brains at all.

Only whether the tactical system of "one shot and four robs" can be established depends on how well the games are played later.

At present, it seems that the effect is still good.

……

On the evening of June 27, the whole men's basketball team got off the plane at Beijing International Airport, and after a more than ten hours of travel, the men's basketball players looked a little tired.

In the hall, the waiting reporters saw the men's basketball players come out and stepped forward to take pictures and interviews.

Since Li Liang joined the men's basketball team, the attention of the national team has jumped a notch.

Originally, the warm-up matches were only covered in a few simple small articles, and they would not attract much attention.

As a result, because of Li Liang's participation, various sports media carried out large-scale reports, and the video of the warm-up game was also leaked, which was filmed by someone with a private camera.

Netizen fans in major forums have high hopes for this men's basketball team.

"How do you feel about the run-in with the national team in this warm-up game?" A female reporter approached Li Liang and asked.

"It's not bad, they have a good run-in with me." Li Liang replied, which means not that he is running in with the national team, but that the national team is running in with him.

"Do you think participating in the national team training has improved you?" Female reporters don't ask questions, can Li Liang and the national team training be improved? It's not bad if you don't regress.

Li Liang himself is a little worried now, and if he plays too much with the slow pace of the national team, will he get used to it, which will lead to the inadaptability of returning to the NBA later.

"I think my meal has increased, and the food cooked by Team Leader Chai is very delicious."

Li Liang pushed a Tai Chi hand and confused this question again.

Otherwise, how would he answer that I play with low-level players, and the level will get worse and worse?

I don't know the level of basketball, and the level of this reporter's questioning is really not improving.

In the parking lot of the airport, Li Liang and his teammates got on the bus and went to the National Basketball Training Center of the General Administration of Sports.

Originally, Zhu Shu and Jensen's bodyguard team had arrived in Beijing a day in advance, and the coaching staff also allowed Li Liang to go out and live alone, just come over for training every day.

However, Li Liang said that since it is a team, it is better to eat and live together, and it is better to give priority to the collective, and it is not suitable for special treatment.

In fact, Li Liang mainly wanted to be separated from Zhu Shu for a period of time, so that he was quiet and quiet.

I think when we were together after graduating from college, I couldn't wait to stick together every day.

Eat, live and play, there are endless words to talk about every day.

To this day, the relationship between the two people is still very good, and they trust each other very much, like relatives.

It's just a matter of officially holding a wedding and becoming husband and wife.

But on weekdays, he can stay alone, and Li Liang feels that it is more comfortable to stay alone.

At the beginning of the city in Russia, although Zhu Shu will miss it very much after leaving, it is really comfortable for him to live alone.

If you miss her, go to Los Angeles, or come back.

The so-called small farewell is better than newlywed, as long as you often don't bid, you can often get married.

There is another problem, that is, if Li Liang lives outside, it is inevitable that various activities will come to the door.

Zhu Shu told Li Liang that his phone in China had been blown up, and the business invitation in his mailbox had long been full.

Out of politeness, Zhu Shu had to reply and refuse one by one.

Moreover, Under Armour also very much hopes that Li Liang will conduct a signing event in China, and the scene must be extremely hot.

But Li Liang wants to concentrate on training more, he is not like some players who were born in the slums, money can be earned a little bit, after all, no one can get along with money.

Basketball players all eat youth food, and the days when they can make money may be only a few years or more than ten years, and there will be no such store in this village.

Like Iverson, he is a fighter on the court, and he has all kinds of bad money off the court.

Under his own name, he went to China to hold a fan meeting, walked two steps, said hello, signed two names and took the money and left.

Because in the first decade of the 21st century, the NBA took advantage of Yao Ming's arrival in the limelight, greatly opened up the market in China, expanded its influence, and created a group of idols for young fans.

If you want to talk about the level, these idols are just like that in the long history of the NBA, but everyone's youth is only once, and many people are willing to pay for youth and feelings.

Seeing the profit margins in this, domestic brokerage companies invite these idols to come to a "China trip" every once in a while, and leave with a wave of money.

In fact, some idols are enough to stay in memories and images.

It's like a magnificent statue, which looks brilliant from afar, but may be rusty and full of holes up close.

This statue is used to look at it from a distance, to appreciate its momentum and shape, but you prefer to get close to touch its material, which is naturally cold and dirty.

Li Liang didn't want to be a cold and dirty idol, he was troublesome.

With his joining of the Chinese national team this year, his family background has also been further excavated by people with intentions.

As a result, the domestic stock of his father's agricultural machinery sales company has risen sharply, and its value has increased a lot.

Li Liang received a call from his father inexplicably, mother's son entered the national team to play, what does it have to do with you selling tractors?

Dad said, "It is not performance and assets that determine the market, but people's hearts." ”

Li Liang said that he was not interested in his family's business, and he would sell sneakers in the future.

Because there is no shortage of money, Li Liang naturally doesn't need to have bad money, he just wants to live comfortably.

So, together with his teammates, he stayed in a basketball training center, a dormitory, a dining hall, and lived a group life to prepare for the Stankovic Cup.
