The first battle was won, and Yang Di felt that it was a matter of course.

There are five people on the basketball court, and if one person becomes stronger, he can drive the whole team to become stronger, and driven by two superstars, the strength of the Chinese team has undergone a qualitative change.

If Yao Ming or Yang Di led the team alone, they might still be the eighth place in the original Olympic Games and the eleventh in the actual world ranking, but now, they have the ability to be in the top five.

After coming to Sapporo, he hadn't done a good job, and when he came out of the hotel, the family was waiting for him at the door.

"Big brother!"

Yang Ting and Yang Bin jumped up, one left and one right to greet them, Yang Di was strong and burly, and easily hugged the two.

"Ouch, it's been a long time since I saw you two."

"Big brother is getting stronger and stronger, and I think your arms are almost thicker than my calves." Yang Ting touched Yang Di affectionately, although she was also a tall girl of 1.75 meters, but compared with Yang Di, she looked like a petite doll.

Then Yang's mother and Yang's father also came over and hugged Yang Di gently.

Yang Di waved his hand: "Come with me, let's go, Sapporo's night market." ”

"Oh!"

Yang Bin and Yang Ting cheered, and then everyone went to the street together.

The hotel is located in the center of the city, and there is a lively street outside the door, and at night, tourists dressed in cool clothes walk freely, and there are shops with local characteristics for shopping and consumption.

While walking, Yang Di met some acquaintances.

"Hello! Yang Di"

"Hello!"

After Yang Di's finals, the ninth album "Forever" released in July sold more than 1.25 million copies in Asia, and two grand concerts were held in Shanghai and Hong Kong last month.

"Wow, SHE!"

When she looked at it from a distance, she was still an ordinary girl, but when she got closer, she realized that it was actually her favorite idol since childhood, Yang Ting was the first to jump out, and stars appeared in her eyes.

"This is ......" SHE saw Yang Ting and Yang Di being intimate and guessed the relationship between the two.

"My sister. The World Championships took her to Japan. Yang Di explained with a smile.

"Oh!"

The three of them suddenly didn't treat Yang Ting as an ordinary fan, but fans of Yang Ting's age, they had seen too much, and seeing Yang Ting surrounding them to take a group photo, Tian Fuzhen's heart moved.

"Yang Di, come, let's take a group photo together!"

Yang Ting brought a SLR and looked for Yang Bin to face them, Yang Di stood in the middle, looking helplessly at the four girls standing on both sides, did they regard them as mascots?

"Did you come to watch the game too?"

Yang Di opened his mouth to ask, and after asking, he felt that this question was too stupid, but to watch the game, did he come to hold a concert?

"Of course we came to watch the game, we were there just now, didn't you see us?" Ren Jiaxuan pursed her mouth, a little unhappy.

Yang Di hurriedly waved his hand, "Huh? I was so involved in the game just now, you know, this is my first game since I played in the national team, and I was even more nervous than I was with the Warriors! ”

"Haha, are you nervous too? I see that you play very fiercely and bravely. Chen Jiahua joked with a smile.

"Big brother, you actually know SHE, I adore you so much!" Yang Ting and Yang Bin were tinkering with the camera over there, looking through the photos taken before, and raised their heads from time to time, looking incredulous.

"How? Don't you ask your idols for autographs? ”

"That's right!" Yang Ting patted her head, how could she look like an excellent student at this time, a complete star-chaser.

"Where's the pen? What about pens? There is no pen ....." Yang Ting fell to the ground in the wind, and she didn't expect a great opportunity, so she wasted it because she didn't have a pen.

"Go buy it, I don't think there's a stationery store over there!" Yang Di pointed ahead and said.

The two little children immediately ran away in a rage.

Yang Di smiled dumbly, shaking his head speechlessly.

......

The World Championships have a tight schedule, with matches happening every day.

In the second match, the Chinese team faced the top seed in Group D, no, it was the top seed of all the teams, the American Dream Seven.

This year's Dream Seven team, when selecting players, pays more attention to the balance of offense and defense, and because it has lost the gold medal in two consecutive international competitions, the players selected this time are all young and well-known players, there are sports, shooting, passing, and breakthrough scoring, in short, considering dealing with various types of national teams, when selecting players, pay more attention to diversity.

So there are Joe Johnson, Kirk Hinrich, LeBron James, Antoine Jamison, Sean Battier, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, Chris Bosh, Dwight Howard, Brad Miller, Elton Brand and Carmelo Anthony.

Against the Chinese team, the most considered is, what to do with the inside line?

"There is no way, only to start from the outside, strong defensive pressure from the outside, through a strong rotation defense, focus on defensive counterattacks." D'Antoni, then assistant coach of the U.S. men's basketball team, said.

Coach K nodded, thinking that the Chinese team was too buggy, and it was impossible to win with the normal positional battle of the two inner lines, but fortunately, he had more cards in his hand, and he could change the way to gain an advantage.

In the other two matches of Group D on the day, Puerto Rico won against Senegal and Italy won against Slovenia.

As a result, Senegal are currently bottom of the group after losing both games, with Puerto Rico, Italy and Slovenia winning one each.

The Chinese team and the United States team, whoever wins the other side will temporarily be at the top of the group.

"But it doesn't matter if you win the first place in this group," Yang Di turned his head and Yi Jianlian said: "Our ultimate goal is to qualify, and then get the best result, even the championship." ”

Yi Jianlian was taken aback, Yang Di really dared to say that the word champion was a bit too outrageous to come out of the mouth of a player from a team whose best score was only eighth?

"Xiao Yi, there is nothing we dare not do, only something we can't think of. Winning the championship is often said in the mouth, and if you take it as a substantial goal to spur yourself, training will naturally have a more surging motivation, and improving your ability will become a matter of course. Yang Di said bitterly to Yi Jianlian.

He thinks that Yi Jianlian's talent is very good, not worse than the black inside's athleticism, and the feel is soft, as long as he practices shooting, he will definitely have a place in the NBA, the key is to change his temperament, today's Yi Jianlian is still like a high school student, this is not good, you must dare to shoot, dare to fight with people who are taller and stronger than yourself.

"No one is worthy on the defensive end, well-rounded on the offensive end, and occasionally makes achievements, and there is no NBA coach who doesn't like such players."

"Be a player that the coach likes." Yang Di and Yi Jianlian said, and then pointed to D'Antoni in the American team: "No, do you see it, that is the current coach of the Suns, he likes you most like you to run and jump and be able to shoot inside, you show your skills and advantages, if he has the idea of being interested in you, you will be half successful." ”

"He's not the head coach of the Hornets." Yi Jianlian didn't quite understand.

"The coaching styles of Nelson Sr. and D'Antoni are somewhat similar, not to mention that the NBA is a business field, and the more coaches who appreciate you, you will have one more path in the future. It's a test of yourself, and I think you should be up to the task, come on! ”
