Chapter 248 Yao Yueban

From July to August, Bai Jidong worked non-stop, from China to the whole of East Asia, in order to publicize his farewell to three generations.

With Bai Jidong securing the number one position in the Bulls, his popularity in Asia has risen.
His handsome appearance has attracted many female fans, and his elegant style of play has attracted countless male fans.

After finishing the business activities, Bai Jidong rushed to BJ Sports Center to report without stopping.

This is the place where the men's basketball team trains. It has been training for several months to prepare for the men's basketball Asian Championships held in Fukuoka, Japan in September.

Bai Jidong is the only player on the training list who has not been reported yet.

The Asian Championships are related to the Olympic qualifications, and both the Basketball Association and the General Administration of Sports attach great importance to it.

Although he only participated in the national team once before, Bai Jidong is already the undisputed number one in the men's basketball team.

Bai Jidong has just turned 20 this year, but he has already made some achievements in the NBA.

His arrival attracted the attention of many media. On the day of the report, many domestic media followed up and interviewed, trying to pry some information from Bai Jidong's mouth.

"Ji Dong, do you feel any different when you come back this time?" The reporter first asked a mild question.

Bai Jidong smiled and said: "Every time I come back, I gain something new. I just arrived, so I don't know the details yet."

"We only won No.3 in the last Asian Championships. Do you have any expectations for the upcoming Asian Championships in Fukuoka?" A reporter asked straight to the point.

On this issue, Bai Jidong has no reservations: "Of course it is the championship. No matter what competition, the Chinese team's goal in Asia is only the championship. There is no need to ask about it. My teammates and I will bring the championship home. Please wait and see."

After dealing with the reporters, Bai Jidong went directly to the sports center to report.

Guided by the staff, I came to my dormitory.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, Bai Jidong asked, "Why is it a private room?"

"This is the dormitory with the best conditions in our place." The staff thought that Bai Jidong was not satisfied with the dormitory.

Bai Jidong asked: "Other people also have a single room?" "No, everyone else has a double room." The staff said.

"Please change it for me, I want to live with my teammates." Bai Jidong said.

A trace of doubt flashed in the staff's eyes, "Now the national team only has Xiao Yao and no roommates."

"Who is Xiao Yao?" Bai Jidong usually doesn't pay attention to the domestic situation, so naturally he doesn't know who this new Xiao Yao is.

The staff said: "The newcomer of the national team is Yao Yueban, and he is taller than Wang Zhizhi."

"Fine, anyone can do it, I don't live in a single room." Bai Jidong reiterated.

The staff had no choice but to take Bai Jidong to the door of another dormitory, "This is it."

"Give me the key, go get busy." Bai Jidong said.

Hearing this, the staff immediately handed the key to Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong was very embarrassed, as if he would eat him up, "Am I so scary? Why are you running so fast?"
The staff pretended not to hear, and ran faster, like a [-]-meter sprint.

Confused, Bai Jidong opened the door with a key and walked into the simple dormitory.

The conditions are indeed mediocre, not comparable to the United States, or even the dormitory of Dream Academy.

Bai Jidong saw an extra-large bed.

From the length of this bed, you can tell how tall the person sleeping on this bed is, "I'm sorry, it looks like my roommate is at least [-] meters."

There were no photos in the dormitory, Bai Jidong didn't get to see the real face of Yao Yueban in advance, so he had to put down his luggage first, put on a training uniform, and then walked out of the dormitory to the training hall.

As soon as I entered the training hall, I saw a banner at the door that said "Fukuoka will win if you suffer from hardships".

Bai Jidong glanced around, and saw a giant player in the crowd, "He must be my roommate."

"Isn't that Bai Jidong?" Someone muttered.

Finally, someone discovered Bai Jidong.

The new coach of the national team, Jiang Xingquan, walked towards Bai Jidong, "Xiaobai, I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I'm looking forward to you."

"Sorry, I was delayed because of other things." Although I have communicated with the national team for a long time, I still have to admit my mistake when I heard the coach's small complaints.

Jiang Xingquan laughed, "It's okay, it's fine if you come, and I'll feel more confident when you come."

"Has today's training started?" Bai Jidong asked.

Jiang Xingquan said: "It hasn't started yet, just assembled."

"Coach, can we play a confrontation match? I want to get to know them better." Bai Jidong laughed.

Jiang Xingquan felt that it was feasible, so he called everyone together, "After a few months, we finally gathered the players. Before that, we had trained for several months, and now it's time to test the results."

"Coach, how do you test? Is there a game?" Wang Zhizhi asked.

Jiang Xingquan said: "The match is still a few days away, let's play an intra-team match today."

Coincidentally, Bai Jidong is in the same group as his new roommate Yao Yuebanfen.

Looking at Yao Yueban's figure, Bai Jidong's impression of him dropped by several percentage points.

In terms of appearance, apart from his height, Yao Yueban has nothing to recommend him.The wingspan is not superior, there are sloping shoulders, and elephant-like thick calves.

"Did he join the national team because of his height?" Bai Jidong didn't believe that the domestic talent selection was so sloppy.

Whether it is a mule or a horse, you will know after the game.

In the jump ball session, Yao Yueban's height advantage was huge, with a slight lift of his right hand, the ball was transferred to Bai Jidong's hand.

Bai Jidong's focus was on Yao Yueban, he secretly marveled at Yao Yueban's running speed.

With a height of [-] meters, Yao Yueban's speed is very fast.

At least faster than Rick Schmitz and Avidas Sabonis, who also have a height of 2 meters.

However, Yao Yueban's speed is relatively fast.

He is fast for a player of his height.

But if you compare it with Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett who are in their early 2 meters, it will be very slow.

In this era where the insiders win the world, and everyone thinks that the closer to the basket, the higher the shooting rate, Yao Yueban's weakness will be narrowed.

There are no absolutes in everything. What if the pace of the alliance becomes faster in the future?Or is it that the inside line has become pocket-sized, and a group of inside lines who play outside have emerged?Can Yao Yueban still adapt?
No one can answer all this because it hasn't happened yet.

Zhang Jinsong led the defense against Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong, who has experienced the tight defense of various NBA teams, was unsuspecting of Zhang Jinsong's defense, "Good time!"

Zhang Jinsong and Bai Jidong played in the Olympic Games once, when Bai Jidong was only 18 years old, that was three years ago.

Shibie will look at each other with admiration for three days, let alone three years?
Zhang Jinsong's defense is indeed good, but the pressure is not enough.

Bai Jidong flashed lightly, squeezed Zhang Jinsong's defense away, rushed into the basket like a humanoid tank, faced Wang Zhizhi's assistance defense and distributed it lightly to Yao Yueban beside him. In one fell swoop, dunks scored.

Bai Jidong smiled and said: "Probably, it's ten years before you want to cover me."

"I will cover you sooner or later!" Wang Zhizhi also laughed. "I really can't believe the gap is that big."

Zhang Jinsong is also a ruthless person. He was given the nickname Desperate Saburo. He is not afraid of anyone on the court and has always been the core of the opponent's defense.

Wang Zhizhi said: "Just try your best."

"Endless!" Zhang Jinsong dribbled the ball, and was about to pass the ball when Bai Jidong's defense came up and controlled Zhang Jinsong in the middle circle.

Zhang Jinsong has never encountered such a defense that makes people stop moving, "How is it possible?"

Bai Jidong is like a boa constrictor suffocating its prey, using its own body to entangle the opponent, causing it to suffocate to death due to lack of oxygen, "Your attention is not concentrated enough."

As soon as the words fell, the ball in Zhang Jinsong's hand was snatched away by Bai Jidong.

"Why are you so good?" Yao Yue looked halfway at Bai Jidong's back, he had never watched the NBA, and he didn't know about Bai Jidong's situation in the United States.

He only knows that there is a man in China who is successful in the NBA, but he doesn't know how successful Bai Jidong is. "Brother Song has nothing to do with him."

"This kid is much stronger than he was three years ago." Gong Xiaobing said.

The gap between Bai Jidong's strength and the others' is too big, basically whichever side he is on wins.

Therefore, the purpose of the competition has changed from a test of strength to a test of training results.

Jiang Xingquan observed everyone's performance, and Bai Jidong also learned about everyone's characteristics during the game.

Most of these people participated in the Atlanta Olympics with him three years ago, but that was three years ago, and he almost forgot.

Yao Yueban's performance was outstanding, and Bai Jidong gradually eliminated his prejudice against him.

Apart from his physical disadvantage, Yao Yueban's technique is very good.

Regardless of low-post attack or close-in shots, he has a considerable hit rate; he has a solid foundation in positioning, and with his height, he can definitely achieve the effect of one card and two. Even if he cannot grab rebounds, he can also help his teammates grab rebounds. The awareness of blocking shots is outstanding, and Yao Yueban's height is a solid [-] meters, which is enough to build a defensive barrier.

Besides Yao Yueban, there is another person that Bai Jidong cares about very much.

BJ's Bart, he is more mature than three years ago, and his low-post singles are the strongest in the national team.

In addition, there is also a high-level support, his support reminds Bai Jidong of Sabonis.

Although not as comprehensive as Sabonis, it is an extremely rare high-level supporter for China.

Wang Zhizhi hasn't changed much, except that his body is a bit fuller than last year's. Fortunately, he hasn't lost his speed, and his offense is more elegant. His shooting range covers beyond the three-point line, and he has a rare breakthrough to the basket.

Generally speaking, these three centers have their own characteristics. Yao Yue is half-defensive, Bart has the strongest low-post offense and support, and Wang Zhizhi has a balanced offense and defense.

In the end, Bai Jidong's team defeated the opponent by double digits.Jiang Xingquan was very satisfied with the contents of this competition.

With this group of outstanding domestic players, and this trump card who has returned from training in the United States, the Asian Championship is sure to win.
