Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 700 Wasting Talent
Although the Huaxia national team has now entered the transition between the old and the new, the thin camel is bigger than the horse, and with the addition of newcomers, it is obviously not the opponent of these young people.

Therefore, the team lineup sent by the national team is: Adi Jiang, Hu Weidong, Sun Jun, Gong Xiaobin and Shan Tao, this lineup of five young players.

The lineup sent by the youth team is also not weak: Li Xiaoyong, Zhang Jinsong, Zheng Wu, Liu Yudong and Wu Naiqun.

It can be seen that, except Zhang Jinsong, who is only 18 years old, the other members of this so-called youth team are not young, they are all around 20 years old. In terms of strength, he is not much weaker than the young players who were selected for the national team.

It can be said that this game is a battle for these young players who have not been selected for the national team to prove themselves.

Sure enough, as soon as the game started, the competition between the two sides fell into a fierce stage.

On the national team side, Hu Weidong was the most outstanding at the beginning. Hu Weidong, who is only 21 years old now, seems to be completely different from others on the court.

Originally a genius, coupled with the help given by Frank and Li Weisi in the past two years, it can be said that Hu Weidong at this time is much stronger than Hu Weidong at the same time in the original time and space.

Zhang Jinsong had the nickname "Desperate Saburo" in the youth team. It seemed that he was going to take Li Yaguang's class, but compared with Li Yaguang, Zhang Jinsong was taller and had better defense.

Now only 18 years old, he has already received a lot of praise for his defensive ability. In the youth team, he also acts as the outside gate.

It's a pity that when he was facing Hu Weidong tonight, Hu Weidong broke through his gate at will, as if entering a land of no one.

Although Hu Weidong has gained a lot of muscle through scientific diet and training over the years, compared with his height of 198cm, he still looks thinner.

However, when Hu Weidong moves, his explosive power and speed are extremely fast, coupled with the precise shooting of COSCO, in this kind of civil war, the opponent has an opponent he is facing, which is the illusion that Li Weisi and Jordan fit together.

For example, this time, due to fear of Hu Weidong's three-pointer, Zhang Jinsong was passed by Hu Weidong with one step, and he jumped high when he came to the penalty area. After drifting in the air for a while, he easily avoided Wu Naiqun's defense, and then made a layup.

"Hu's ability has improved a lot!" Li Weisi said to the current national team coach Jiang Xingquan on the sidelines.

Due to the habit developed in the United States, Li Weisi still used to call the other party's last name when talking with Chinese people.

"Yes! I also want to thank you for your help to him. To be honest, the domestic conditions are limited, and your help is like timely rain. Do you know what it means?" Jiang Xingquan also said with emotion.

At this time, the head coach of the national team is not an easy thing to do, it is more like a hot potato, which makes people avoid it.

Taking over as the coach of the national team last year officially ended the era of Qian Chenghai and opened the era of Jiang's national team.

But everything is difficult at the beginning. The national team is now facing a change of old and new. In order to prepare for next year's Olympic Games, a large number of young people were selected to join the national team this year. As a result, only Song Tao, Sun Fengwu, Zhang Yongjun and Song Ligang were left as veteran players who participated in the 88 Olympic Games. up.

Needless to say, Song Tao has already become the first brother of the national team with the retirement of the old players and his experience of studying abroad.

In contrast, although Sun Fengwu, Zhang Yongjun, and Song Ligang are all in their prime, their strengths and weaknesses are very obvious, and they are not players who can support the team's skeleton.

Therefore, if you want the national team to achieve good results in next year's Olympic Games, not to mention breaking the 88-year history of good results, just to be able to maintain it, you must allow young players to perform at 120%.

Unfortunately, at present, it seems that only Hu Weidong has such potential. The others may not have grown up to the ability to support the team because of their age.

The game is still going on, and then it is the turn of the youth team to attack.

Li Xiaoyong passed the ball to the inside Liu Yudong.

The one who defended Liu Yudong was also an old acquaintance, "King of Freedom" Gong Xiaobin.

Although Gong Xiaobin does not have this nickname yet, his performance has begun to show his potential in this regard.

At this time, the hard power of the two is actually better than that of Gong Xiaobin. Gong Xiaobin has a high IQ and comprehensive skills at the basket. When the two fight, Liu Yudong is slightly inferior in all aspects except for COSCO.

This is why Gong Xiaobin was selected for the national team but Liu Yudong was not.

But Liu Yudong was not convinced by Gong Xiaobin. When the two met for the first time in Li Weisi's rookie training camp, they did not leave a good impression on each other.

In Liu Yudong's view, a Gong Xiaobin and a Sun Jun are shaking their heads and not paying enough attention to training. If this continues, it is clear that they are wasting their talents and committing suicide slowly.

But in Gong Xiaobin's eyes, Liu Yudong is fussy, he doesn't know what to do, and he doesn't like himself. It's no wonder he has a good relationship with Liu Yudong with his violent temper!

Therefore, when the two faced each other, they didn't even think about asking their teammates for help, they both wanted to teach each other a lesson.

Liu Yudong's basket skills are not as good as Gong Xiaobin's. Although he is superior in strength, he is far away from the basket at this time. If he wants to hit back like this, he is easy to be double-teamed, which is not safe.

So, after Liu Yudong tried two steps with his back turned, he suddenly turned around and planned to make a jump shot.

Gong Xiaobin had been preventing him from shooting, but when Liu Yudong really wanted to shoot, Gong Xiaobin still couldn't prevent him. Liu Yudong was like a shooting machine at this time, with no emotion.

Seeing that Liu Yudong was about to complete his shot, a person suddenly emerged from behind, and it was Hu Weidong who had just moved across from the baseline.

A slap slapped the ball from behind Liu Yudong, and then Hu Weidong counterattacked. In just a few seconds, he entered the frontcourt from the backcourt, took a step forward from the free throw line, and flew for a dunk.

Seeing such a wonderful dragon, Li Weisi couldn't help putting down his crutches and applauding Hu Weidong.

"Do you really not consider my suggestion? To be honest, it is a waste of his talent to let Hu continue to play domestically. He should go to a higher level league so that he can continue to improve."

Hearing what Li Weisi said, Coach Jiang started to have a headache again.

In fact, this is not the first time Li Weisi invited Hu Weidong to play in the United States, but the answer he got was that a meeting was needed to study it, and then there was no more.

However, it is no longer the period of Guidance Qian. In order to achieve results quickly, Guidance Jiang actually has such ideas, but whether he can succeed is not up to him, even if there is a role model like Song Tao!
