Almighty Athlete Chapter 83: Following attention from the NBA

The triple jump qualifier is over, and there are no other games in the nest at this time. Next is the men’s 110-meter hurdles, but it does not start until after 11 o'clock.

The audience at the scene also took a short break. Many people shouted dumb in the game just now, and it’s time to drink a little water to win a throat lozenge to relieve some of them

"Zhang Guan is still promoted, and it is still the first qualifying match!"

"This is the first time I watched Zhang Guan participate in the triple jump competition. I was a little worried before that Zhang Guan could not be promoted."

"I don’t worry. Zhang Guan is the Asian record holder of triple jump anyway. The qualifier will definitely be able to advance, but I didn’t expect him to jump so far, and created his own best score."

"I think Zhang Guan might win the final in the triple jump!"

"It may be difficult to win the championship. After all, it is the Olympics. The level of the players is generally relatively high. Maybe some people can jump over 17.70 meters in the finals. There are still many gaps between Zhang Guan and this score."

"Even if you can't get a gold medal, it's good to get a medal! Maybe Zhang Guan can play at a super level? Don't forget that Zhang Guan is the best person to create miracles."

......

In the voice of discussion, Zhang Guan left the scene early and returned to the dressing room. Even the interviews with CCTV reporters were conducted while walking. Because Zhang Guan will also participate in the match between the men's basketball team and the Greek team in the afternoon.

"basketball against Greece is at 2:30 in the afternoon. Are you going to Wukesong basketball Hall now, or will you go again later?" Yu Gui asked.

Zhang Guan thought for a few seconds and said, "Let’s go now!"

"Now? It is the 110-meter hurdles soon. Are you ready to go after watching Liu Feiren's game?" Yu Guidao said with a smile.

Zhang Guan sighed. Although he was looking forward to the change of history and the miracle in his heart, he still couldn't bear to stay and couldn't bear to see the lonely figure when Liu Feiren left the field.

"I still have lunch, and I have to listen to coach Yunas to arrange tactics in advance. In addition, it is tens of miles to go to the Wukesong basketball Pavilion. I also worry about traffic jams on the road." Zhang Guan casually made an excuse.

"Oh, then you go early!" Yu Guizuo said so, but he was thinking about the Zhang Guan helicopter pick-up, how could he worry about traffic jams.

......

Soon after, in the last group of the 110-meter hurdle, the first shot was snatched away, but Liu Feiren stopped in front of the first hurdle. After tearing off the entry number he just posted, he kneaded it with his hands and got up and slowly walked out of the venue and returned to the rest passage. The spectators on the side of the court were stunned, while the spectators in the distance did not yet know what happened. The scene was silent, and people were still comforting themselves. Their "flying trapezes" just went back and fetched a forgotten thing.

But Liu Feiren did not return to the stadium, and the announcer said in a low voice at this time: "Audience friends, Chinese player Liu Feiren on the second runway, had to give up the game due to injury." After a number of spectators exclaimed, the bird's nest suddenly became silent. People stood like this, saying that they were not waiting for anything. They couldn't believe everything in front of them. Many people couldn't help crying. The remaining athletes finished the race on the 110-meter hurdles. No one cheered, no one applauded, and no one even noticed their presence.

For Chinese viewers, this is sad news. Fortunately, all three projects of Zhang Guan were successfully promoted this morning, and broke the 100-meter world record two days ago, which gave the audience some comfort and made the audience feel more comfortable.

However, due to the existence of Zhang Guan, Liu Feiren is no longer the "only" of Chinese track and field, so the pressure on him is also much less, and there is no too sharp responsibility and too much for Liu Feiren to retire. The fierce criticism is mostly based on comfort and encouragement, and everyone looks forward to Liu Feiren returning to the arena.

......

Zhang Guan rushed to the Wukesong Stadium to participate in the men’s basketball game against Greece. In the distant United States, on the first day of the Olympic basketball game, someone has been silently paying attention to Zhang Guan, such as the NBA ball. Explorers.

Although this is the NBA offseason, for the NBA scouts, the Olympics are their busiest moments. Every Olympics will bring a lot of excellent players, some of them have been selected by the NBA , But have not had the opportunity to enter the NBA; some have lost in the NBA draft; some have no chance to participate in the NBA draft; and some are about to participate in the NBA draft in the future.

For any basketball athlete, it is their dream to enter the NBA. Some players dominate the domestic league, but in the NBA they are just a water dispenser administrator, but even so, as long as there is a chance They still flock to the NBA.

For NBA teams, international players may be easier to use than the rookie from the US native draft. The rookies from the draft will take years of experience to gain a foothold in the fierce NBA. Many of the international players are some real-time combat power, as long as they adapt to the NBA game rhythm, they can contribute to the team.

This year’s Olympics, scouts focused on the Spanish team. Mark Gasol was selected 48th in the second round of the NBA last year. Generally speaking, this pick wants to play in the NBA. It’s difficult, but at the Olympics, Marc Gasol is now capable of showing the level of normal NBA rotation players, not to mention that in this era of scarcity of traditional centers, Marc Gasol is a rare animal, naturally Will attract the attention of scouts.

Another Spanish player, "Golden Boy" Rubio, also performed well. Before the start of the Olympics, Rubio was once hailed as the top pick in the next NBA draft, ranking above Griffin. So the weak teams in the NBA league or the teams that are about to enter the reconstruction have sent scouts to observe Rubio's situation.

As for Zhang Guan, there were scouts observing Zhang Guan before the start of the Olympic basketball game, but the first game of the national team, Zhang Guan, did not play, so Zhang Guan was instantly scrambled into the ranks of giving up observation.

However, in the subsequent game against Spain, Zhang Guan hit two key winning goals, which brought him back to the perspective of scouts. Zhang Guan did not play in the game against Angola, and Zhang Guan scored two winning goals again with the German team~IndoMTL.com~ So far, Zhang Guan has only appeared in two games in total, and the playing time does not add up By three minutes, it was a few rounds.

Three minutes is obviously not enough for scouts. Even the top scouts in the NBA can’t rely on three minutes of playing time and four or five offenses to form a player report. So those scouts who want to continue to observe Zhang Guan will never miss the contest between the Chinese team and the Greek team.

In addition to scouts, there is another person who is also concerned about Zhang Guan, that is, Mickey Kupchak, the general manager of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers chose Zhang Guan with No. 58 pick in this year's NBA draft. Although the No. 58 pick is not a big deal for the Los Angeles Lakers, and even if it is thrown, it does not hurt, but Kupchak still hopes that there will be a miracle.

The Lakers chose Zhang Guan in this year’s NBA draft, which was hailed as a major failure by the American media. In particular, the Zhang Guan did not play in the first game of the Olympics, and many American colleagues read the joke.

But after the Spanish team's game, Zhang Guan scored the winning goal, but Kupchak realized that he was very likely to pick up the treasure! (To be continued.)
