"Chen Mu, although everyone understands that you want to make yourself better, more powerful, and strive for more honors for the Chinese team. But this training camp has started in March, except for Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, other national players began to gather at that time to practice tactics. As the shortest of the three players who missed early training, did it have any impact on the adaptation of tactics? ”

After the reporter asked the first question, the second question turned one hundred and eighty degrees, which hit Chen Mu's weakness at once.

This national men's basketball training camp began after the squad was determined in March, and has undergone several adjustments during the period, and now it is maintained at a list of 18 people.

Most of these eighteen are professional players in the CBA, and only three have not been able to participate in the early training camp.

One is Yao Ming, Yao Ming was injured during the Rockets' winning streak and was reimbursed for the season, and it was once reported that he would most likely miss the Olympics. But at the last moment, Yao Ming still said that he would participate in the Olympic event at his doorstep, even if he broke his leg and foot, and while winning a round of applause and cheers, it also made many insiders sweat for Yao Ming's career.

Although in the previous timeline, Chen Mu only saw through media reports and some materials afterwards that the degree of wear and tear of Yao Ming from this injury was serious, and how serious the sequelae of participating in the Olympic Games with the injury had brought to Yao Ming's body.

But at that time, Chen Mu still vaguely felt that the reason why Yao Ming's career was too short was not just because he participated in too many national team competitions. Yao Ming's height and weight, mid-to-late game adjustment, power tendency and method and other problems have all led to Yao Ming's continuous injuries in the future. This pot is multifaceted, and the basketball association can't be left to carry it.

But now, Chen Mu has become a professional athlete himself. I participated in the top training and body maintenance in the professional circle, and I know some of the doorways.

Yao Ming's short career is absolutely inseparable from the fact that he plays too many high-intensity matches every year.

Yao Ming's height and weight, as well as his playing style in the middle and late stages, are just one of the reasons why Yao Ming did not recover from his injury for a long time and finally retired. The most important factor was that he played too many games, fought almost all year round, and on many occasions he was not fully recovered from his injuries. It's back to playing at the highest intensity.

In the Chinese team, Yao Ming is the absolute core, with or without Yao Ming, the Chinese team is simply two teams. With Yao Ming, even Spain and the United States can wrestle their wrists in a short period of time, without Yao Ming, can you imagine what the Chinese team and Spain would be like?

Too many games and too much ball handling in the game, almost every attack. It's all related to Yao Ming. Playing long hours on the court, constantly participating in the offense and defense under the basket, and too much mid-to-high blocking that can be quite depleting to the legs, feet and knees for a super big man all come together. It was Yao Ming who became the culprit of hurting Zhongyong.

A trend that many people have noticed: in NBA games, there are now very few super ironmen who average more than 40 minutes per game this season.

Back fifteen years ago, at the beginning of the 21st century, Kobe Bryant. Iverson, Kidd and others have all had seasons where they have played close to or even more than 40 minutes. LeBron James also used to stay all year round during the season. Seems to be an iron man who keeps playing on the field.

But now? Friends with a heart can go to the list of season playing time in the last fifteen years or so, and it can be clearly found that the playing time of the stars is constantly decreasing.

This trend, Dragon Bone Porridge personally thinks is a great progress, and it is also a great proof of the continuous progress of the NBA.

With the ability of role players to improve and the overall level to grow, the gap between superstars and average players may be narrowing. But as long as the superstars play their playing time is strictly controlled, they can theoretically use all their abilities for the most productive period of time, shining more brightly and persistently.

Kobe Bryant, LeBron, Westbrook, Paul George, we've seen too many injuries and suffering. So to save basketball, to save the sport we love, just be patient, give your role players more time to play, and cherish all the superstar moments that you can get to play!

Now, Chen Mu has also probably analyzed the composition of the national team, and can roughly understand why the national team's dependence on Yao Ming is so serious.

The reason is simple: there is no second reliable attacker with the ball.

The reliability here does not mean showing off your footsteps in one or two rounds, making a few super long shots, or pulling up a layup or something. A truly reliable attacker with the ball needs to have the strength to take over the team's offense and defense for at least one quarter of the game.

At this point, Chen Mu feels that in the international arena, he still has hope to do it.

Although the NBA is different from the international arena, the rule changes have made many side-by-side comparisons meaningless. But being able to become the absolute core of an NBA playoff-level team and handle so many balls in every game can at least prove that Chen Mu is not worthy of anyone on the international stage, right?

As long as Chen Mu can do it, in a game, share the pressure of about a quarter of game time for Yao Ming, and in this quarter of the game (not necessarily coherent), he can play his strength at a high level and become the offensive and defensive core of the team worthy of relying on. Then for Yao Ming, the game is much easier.

In this way, the pressure on Yao Ming on the field is reduced, which is a great thing for the team's record, the future of Yao Ming's career, and even the succession day that will definitely come one day.

And Chen Mu also took this as his goal, and took advantage of a rare opportunity to honor and redeem a fairly reliable badge.

Another player who did not participate in the early training camp, Yi Jianlian, although he is also very young, has many years of professional experience in the CBA. Compared with Chen Mu, whether it is Yi Jianlian or Yao Ming, they will be more experienced and more targeted to adapt to a tactical system.

It's no wonder that this reporter seized this point to ask questions, and the questions asked made Chen Mu a little difficult to answer.

"Chen Mu, everyone is very worried about the repetition of the scene of the Asian Youth Championship last year, which is the emergence of the so-called tactical isolation." The reporter continued: "At that time, because your personal strength was much stronger than your opponents, you finally won the game on your own. But now the opponents you face are different, their strength is also very high, and there are even many players whose strength is above you, if you and the team are not running in, will it cause some problems? ”

"This ......"

There were some beads of sweat on Chen Mu's forehead, and I have to say that this reporter's eyes are still very sharp. Not to mention reporters, even Chen Mu himself is a little worried about this problem.

The run-in is not enough, which is also a problem for Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, but they have not only played in one team in their careers, it is the norm for teammates to change around, and it is not the first time to participate in an adult-level national brand competition, and it will naturally be much smoother than Chen Mu to adapt.

And what about Chen Mu?

Can he do this?

"Hehe, thank you for your concern from the media, but you don't need to worry about the question you just mentioned."

Just when Chen Mu was about to say something nonsense, the life-saving voice sounded.

"In order to let Chen Mu keep up with the rhythm of the team's training camp and familiarize himself with the technical and tactical details as soon as possible, we have prepared a series of devil training waiting for him. With his basketball IQ, he will definitely integrate into the team soon and shine on the international stage! ”

Damn, I'm going to say that, but the boasting is too obvious to be embarrassed to say!

Chen Mu was remorseful, and when he looked back, he saw that the fat old man was standing outside the media circle, looking at himself with a smug expression.

"I'm back."

Lao Hu ignored the questions that the reporters on the side continued to ask, and smiled at Chen Mu: "Is there any gain from the special training over there?" ”

"I'm back."

Chen Mu only felt that a warm current flowed through his heart, and a strong sense of hometown arose, and his nose was sour, and he was actually moved.

Every time I see Lao Hu, I feel so warm and relieved.

"I'm back, master."

Chen Mu nodded with a smile, walked out of the crowd, and strode to Lao Hu's side.

"Chen Mu Chen Mu Sawdust will always support you!"

Not far away, the not very familiar shout sounded, Chen Mu felt warm again, and when he looked back, he saw that the fans who had seen the last time they came back and the last time they came back last time were holding slogans and waving to themselves.

Compared to last year, there are more people.

Chen Mu was also full of emotion in his heart, as his popularity increased, the number of people in the sawdust base camp also increased. There are even hardcore sawdust that follow Chen Mu to the north and south in the United States, watching every game, which makes Chen Mu very moved.

It's nice to be home!

Smiling and listening to Lao Hu answer the questions of media reporters with ease, Chen Mu turned around and opened his backpack and took out a bag that had already been prepared, which was the DESIRE bracelet specially launched by NIKE for the upcoming Olympic Games.

"Brothers, come on!"

With a wave of his hand, Chen Mu threw the bag to the sawdust, watching his fans open the bag and see the contents in surprise, listening to their screams and shouts, Chen Mu felt extremely satisfied.

“…… Coach Hu, this year's Chinese team is considered by many fans to be the strongest in history, what do you think about this? A journalist asked one last question.

"The ...... the strongest ever?"

Lao Hu was stunned when he heard this, he naturally didn't know where this kind of remark came from, and after a while, he smiled and said: "The fans are very discerning, that's right, we are definitely the strongest ...... in history!" (To be continued.) )
