The Fifth Point Guard

Adjust the setting directly to 6x gravity.

Shentong stood near the center circle with the ball.

This 6 times gravity setting does not mean that the gravity in the entire cabin becomes 6 times, but during the process of sprinting for a layup or dunk, the resistance in the air will become 6 times, simulating being hit or fouled by an opponent in the air. situation.

After going through strength training, Shentong is full of confidence in himself.

What Jordan did, I, Shentong, can do the same!

Dribble, run, sprint!

"Bang"

Shentong jumped into the air and suddenly felt a little lack of oxygen. Then a huge momentum surged into his body. Before he had time to react, he was knocked to the ground by the resistance.

In the air, the ball fell out of hand and fell to the floor, making a "dong dong dong" sound.

Because the setting is to protect players from injury, when Shentong landed, he could feel a gentle force protecting him, and it didn't hurt at all when he fell to the floor.

But in the moment of huge momentum, Shentong had no time or chance to control his body.

Standing up from the floor, Shentong planned to do it again.

I’ve already experienced it once, so this time it should be fine!

Pick up the ball and return it to the center circle again.

Once again, dribble, run, sprint!

"Bang."

This time, Shentong was knocked to the ground again. Although the ball in his hand was released, he had no sense of control and hit the bottom edge of the basket. It bounced back and hit Shentong's head.

Like an apple hitting Newton on the head, Shentong suddenly figured it out.

admit defeat

Anyway, in one month, STO plans to proceed step by step.

Jordan certainly didn't achieve success overnight.

Shentong comforted himself, and then changed the gravity setting to twice.

On July 25, 2004, there were still about 10 days left before the first match of the Chinese men’s basketball team against the Spanish men’s basketball team at the Athens Olympics.

All Chinese men’s basketball players have assembled!

At the upcoming Athens Olympics, China is in Group A with Spain, Italy, Argentina, Serbia and Montenegro, and New Zealand. The opponents in the same group, except New Zealand, are all very strong.

Spain and Serbia and Montenegro are established European powerhouses, Italy is the new upstart in Europe, and Argentina is one of the two strongest teams in South America. They are both tough bones to crack.

Even in their eyes, China, like New Zealand, is a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

The American Dream Six teams in Group B drew a lottery. Their opponents in the same group include Lithuania, Greece, Puerto Rico, Australia and Angola.

As long as the US team performs normally, it is easy to qualify first in the group, and the second place will be between the two teams of Lithuania and Greece.

STO returned to China as scheduled on the 25th to join other men's basketball team members.

The coaching team of the men's basketball national team is also very strong every time, with the double combination of Harris and Yunus.

The roster of the Chinese men's basketball team was also officially announced on the same day.

Including four NBA players, Shuntong, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Battelle, a total of 12 players were selected for the final roster of the men's basketball team.

Center: Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Battelle

Power forward: Du Feng, Yi Jianlian

Small forward: Li Nan, Zhang Jinsong, Zhu Fangyu

Shooting guard: Shentong

Point guard: Liu Wei, Guo Shiqiang, Zhang Yunsong

The team conducted a week-long closed training. The outside world had no idea what was going on in the venue. They only learned through Harris’s speech at the press conference that the strength of the Chinese men’s basketball team exceeded their expectations. At the same time, everyone They are training very hard individually, and I believe they will surprise Chinese fans at the Athens Olympics.

On August 12, 2004, the Chinese men's basketball team departed for Athens, Greece, three days in advance to prepare for the game on the 15th.

Shortly after arriving in Athens, Harris quickly scheduled a training session.

This time, the men's basketball training sessions are open to the public, and reporters are allowed to enter to take photos and conduct interviews.

It was the first time for the players to come to Athens. After the domestic lockdown, everyone seemed very relaxed.

Li Nan also chatted with the Chinese reporters on the side.

"The atmosphere of the Olympic Games in Athens is not strong enough. If it were in Beijing, it would have been extremely lively."

Since this was the first public appearance before the men's basketball game, there were a lot of reporters and staff on site.

Yao Ming said in an interview: "Our goal is to reach the top eight. The pressure on the team is not small, but we are very confident. I think based on our strength, it is possible to reach the top eight."

As the most popular NBA player in Asia, Shentong felt the "terror" of reporters for the first time.

"ah"

Before he could speak, Shentong's mouth was blocked with four or five microphones.

After pushing the microphone, Shentong was able to speak normally.

"Our goal in playing is very simple, which is to win. Wearing the jersey of the Chinese team, we will not consider other factors too much. Everything is to win. I hope everyone in our team can quickly adapt to the time difference. And adjust your physical condition to be ready for the game as soon as possible.”

When asked about his views on the first game against Spain, Shentong replied: "A good start is half the success. We will naturally go all out to win the first game. Spain is a very strong opponent, but we are not weak either. We are against I am very confident.”

According to on-site observations, the Chinese team was divided into a white team and a black team for half-time tactical drills.

Obviously, the white team is the main force.

Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Li Nan, Shentong, and Liu Wei seem to be the starting lineup against Spain in the first game.

At the post-training press conference, Yao Ming, who attended the press conference with Harris, even risked his life and vowed to "don't shave until he reaches the quarterfinals" to express his determination and fighting spirit.

In the locker room, Shentong said with a smile: "This guy must have forgotten his razor in the country."

On October 14, the Athens Olympic Games opened.

Yao Ming, the little giant of the Chinese men's basketball team, has become the flag-bearer of the Chinese sports delegation.

Yao Ming, who is 2.26 meters tall and the tallest flag bearer in the Olympic Games, held high the bright five-star red flag and led the Chinese delegation to the 78th entrance, winning applause from the audience.

Most of the people in the stadium stood up and applauded him, and shouts of "YAO" and "SHEN" could be heard from the crowd from time to time.

A female volunteer said excitedly during an on-site interview: "Yao Ming is really too tall. I am a fan of Yao Ming. In Greece, Yao has many admirers. But my favorite Chinese player is Shentong. ,I love you!"

After speaking, the female volunteer blew a kiss towards the live broadcast camera.

Walking through the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games holding the five-star red flag high felt like a dream to Yao Ming.

He is proud of himself and the Chinese men's basketball team.

At 7:00 pm on the 15th, there are still 30 minutes left before the start of the first game of the Chinese men’s basketball team against Spain.

In the locker room, the men's basketball players formed a circle.

The person standing in the middle is not Yao Ming, but a player who just returned from the United States this season and represented the Chinese men's basketball team for the first time.

STO.
