This is an advertisement jointly made by STO and Jay Chou for Mobile China.

It combines two popular superstars in basketball and music and was broadcast during prime time on catv during the Athens Olympics.

This music coupled with the Chinese men's basketball team's victory over Spain excited countless fans in front of the TV.

Especially when Shentong was dribbling the ball and saying, "You have to listen to me in my territory," countless girls showed a look of (^_-) in their eyes.

China's victory over Spain immediately became the headline news of Olympic special topics on major websites!

97-80, China won without any doubt.

Yao Ming had a double-double with 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

Li Nan hit 5 three-pointers from the outside, showing his true qualities as "Little Li Flying Knife" and scoring 15 points.

Gasol of the Spanish team was the best player on the team, scoring 21 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks. However, he did not support the entire Spanish team and lost himself in the inside of Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Battelle.

Garbajosa scored 16 points and 6 rebounds, and Navarro scored 11 points.

At the post-match press conference, Harris and Yunus, who led the team to defeat Spain, were in high spirits.

Reporter: "First of all, congratulations on defeating the powerful Spanish team in the first game of the Olympic group stage. The Chinese team played in a different competitive state than before, especially in terms of physical fitness. The intensity of the game did not decrease until the end of the game. Please Coach Harris, can you tell me how you did it?"

"Silver Fox" Harris smiled slightly and said: "Actually, I didn't do much more than in the previous training, but if you want to say there are some differences, it was those guys who came back from the United States who brought it to the team. Change, discipline, toughness and strength.”

"Can you tell me more specifically?"

"Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Battelle were the first batch of NBA players to come back. After they came back, they immediately brought their training methods in the United States back to China and set an example. After every game, they would take the initiative to do additional training. , shooting, strength, physical fitness, etc., these big brothers work so hard, and other players will naturally not relax. And when Shentong came back, the team's training intensity was upgraded to a very cruel level, each player every day Most of the training ended with me falling on the floor from exhaustion, and even Yao Ming told Shentong, we can't practice like this."

The whole crowd laughed.

Even Yao Ming, who has always trained hard, expressed his complaints to Shentong. Needless to say, the intensity of training is of course not.

"In the end, I led the players to conduct tactical training, and they conducted physical and strength training on their own. The entire closed training process was almost like this."

After describing the changes in the Chinese men's basketball team from the perspective of coach Harris, player Liu Wei also attended the post-game press conference. He described his views on the Chinese men's basketball team from his own feelings.

"You know? Before Shentong came back, we thought Yao Ming was the ceiling for Chinese basketball players. He needed two or even three people to double-team him in the team's training games. But when Shentong came back, I was completely shocked. He We feel like we are guys from a different world. Although Yao Ming and I are best friends, I still have to say this." (Laughs)

"Did Shin bring any changes to you?"

"Of course, strength, fitness, speed and most importantly, courage and confidence."

Liu Wei's face was full of perseverance and he said: "He made us believe that Asians' physical fitness can be the same as that of European and American players, or even better than them. Shen once said to us, 'I can do it, you guys You can do it too'. Since then, everyone has been constantly breaking through themselves, because we have seen that the bodies of yellow people are still full of infinite possibilities. From the beginning, they were abused by Shentong and Yao Ming, and then gradually became able to follow I have followed their rhythm and pace, and now I have completely adapted to their rhythm. I think this is the progress of our Chinese men's basketball team, and we need players like Shentong and Yao Ming to lead us forward."

At the end of the press conference, a reporter asked Harris: "With the strength to defeat Spain, will the Chinese team's goals be improved, such as winning medals?"

The cunning Harris smiled and replied: "It's too early to talk about medals. Our goal is still to reach the quarterfinals. We will talk about the rest later."

Reaching the quarterfinals means qualifying from the group.

The rest will be discussed later, that is, when it comes to the knockout rounds, then think about medals.

As expected of the Silver Fox, he gave a Tai Chi answer, which left not only suspense, but also wild thoughts, as well as the vision and confidence of the young men's basketball team for the future.

After the game that day, one of Yao Ming's answers captured the day's laughter.

A reporter asked: "What do you think of your victory over Spain?"

Yao Ming was obviously in a good mood and said with a smile: "Why did the league award the Best Rookie to Shuntong instead of Gasol? This proves that the league still has a sense of proportion."

The reporters present snickered at first, but when they realized what was going on, they all burst into laughter. The scene was very lively.

You know, Yao Ming ranked second for the best rookie.

This dual American humor of praising Shen Tong and self-deprecating is something that Yao Ming, who has a high emotional intelligence, can do.

The explosive news of China's victory over Spain quickly reached the ears of the players of the American Dream Six Team.

Richard Jefferson said in an exaggerated tone: "Damn it, STO actually took care of the Spanish team? That's so awesome. Did he score 50 points or 60 points?"

LeBron James said: "The Chinese team is not only composed of Shentong, but also players such as Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi. The No. 10 player who shoots three-pointers is also very good. This year's Chinese team cannot be underestimated."

Carlos Boozer said: "It is said that there are 1.3 billion people in China. It is not easy to find more than ten players who are good at basketball. With Shentong and Yao Ming leading them, they may be in Group A this year. A dark horse."

After expressing their opinions with STO's former and current teammates, the team's boss Tim Duncan spoke.

"No matter how other teams are playing, we have to stay focused and focus on playing every game we play."

Stephon Marbury said casually: "Tim, relax, our opponent is not China or Spain, but Puerto Rico. We can easily beat them by 30 to 40 points."

Carmelo Anthony also said: "It's easy, they don't have many players playing in the NBA."

Mengliu's underestimation of the enemy seemed to pave the way for the next game.
