The Chinese men's basketball team won the Sydney Olympic gold medal in 8 games, ending the dominance of the Dream Team of the three World Championships from 1992 to 1996.

The Chinese national anthem at the Sydney Olympic Stadium is like a battle song, sounding the clarion call for world basketball to counterattack American basketball!

Athletes from other countries also understand that it may be impossible to truly surpass American basketball as a whole.

Like this year's American men's basketball team, to be honest, every position is not the best candidate for the American team.

Kidd is currently the best point guard in the NBA, but if you defend yourself in international arena, there are more point guards in the NBA that are more suitable for international arena than Kidd.

Garnett can be said to be the best solution among the 12 players in the US men's basketball team this year. Carter, Alan Houston, Steve Smith, Ray Allen and others are also good, but basically it can be said that except Garnett, every other player can find a better choice.

To surpass American basketball from its overall strength, it may take a century of plan.

But we can't say that the gap is big and give up. Who doesn't want to leave a strong mark in the history of their country?

If your country can win the gold medal in the Olympics and World Championships, it will definitely be a huge driving force for the development of your country's basketball.

At least, the Chinese men's basketball team has proved that in this Olympics, the Dream Team is no longer an invincible team!

...

After the men's basketball event was over, Zhang Hao began to participate in commercial activities in Sydney and watch other events.

After his own project ended, he won the championship. Now that the Chinese men's basketball team is looking at other team projects, he finally has the reputation to give advice...

On October 1, the Olympic closing ceremony ended, and on October 3, the Chinese Olympic team set off to return home.

On October 5, Zhang Hao followed the Chinese men's basketball team to conduct a series of activities and came to the Great Hall of the People to receive the reception from the top leaders with athletes from other sports.

With 29 gold medals, 16 silver medals, 15 bronze medals, a total of 60 medals, the Chinese Olympic team has set the best record in history, whether it is the number of gold medals or the total number of medals.

Zhang Hao scored 57 points in the Olympic men's basketball event, leading the team to win 8 and lose 0 to win the gold medal. He was very sensational after returning to China. The leader met and the supreme leader was very interested and wanted to chat with Zhang Hao alone.

This is a rare treatment among athletes.

When Zhang Hao met the Supreme Leader, he hoped that the Supreme Leader would agree to let more outstanding domestic players study in Europe.

In contrast, unless the talent reaches the level of Hu Weidong, Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming, the European basketball system is more suitable for domestic basketball players.

Of course, we must build the most suitable domestic basketball system based on actual conditions and national conditions.

Unlike the men's basketball team that had almost no hope of winning cards in time and space, now the Chinese men's basketball team has won the championship, which is very different.

Domestic leaders attach completely different importance to a project that can win the championship. This kind of competition that can demonstrate the competitiveness of Chinese athletes' multi-player team collaboration is basically gone except for the women's volleyball, women's football, and women's basketball team. The influence of the three major women's sports is much different from that of the three major men's.

There is no hope, and the country will not say that it does not pay attention to it, but it will not put so much effort into it. The country is very busy. For the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, the entire country is very busy.

But if you can win the championship, the views of the country's top leaders are absolutely very different.

Also, Zhang Hao's attitude at the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics and his attitude of actively promoting the development of domestic basketball after winning the gold medal have played a role.

Facing the supreme leader, in just half an hour of chat, Zhang Hao was as calm as ever, giving people a feeling of being very trustworthy...

As long as the Chinese people’s thoughts do not fall apart, they are willing to devote themselves, and they are willing to spend time doing things, there is nothing they can’t do.

...

There will eventually be a time when the song ends and people part.

On October 6, Zhang Hao attended the celebration banquet of the Chinese men's basketball team and drank some wine. He was very happy, but also a little worried. Two years later, in the next World Championship, someone might leave and new people join.

Teammates who won medals or even gold medals together, and for the first time, they always feel different.

On October 7, Zhang Hao, Wang Zhizhi, Yao Ming and Hu Weidong set off for the United States, arrived in Los Angeles together, and then went their separate ways...

...

...

"The Shame of Dream Team"

While waiting for the turnaround in Los Angeles, Zhang Hao took some magazines and newspapers and saw the title given by Sports Illustrated.

When you open the page marked by the magazine, it is not an interview, but an interview content with a timeline.

After the Olympic final, Jordan gave a comment to Dream Four: "They lost all the face of Dream Team."

The US men's basketball team returned home the day after the finals.

Garnett responded to this: "Why are you going to the Supersonics?"

After learning about this, Barkley responded to Jordan on a news program: "Of course it's for the championship, and cooperating with Aix is ​​the best way to win the championship."

Although the Olympics have ended for a week, many things about the Olympics are still hot news. The number of gold medals won again in the United States is equivalent to the Washington Post, which represents the United States' world number one comprehensive national strength.

So many world champions have returned to the United States, received interviews, played shows, and conducted commercial activities... The Olympics are still popular now.

However, the one who is sought after by the media is nothing but the Dream Team.

But the Dream Team has more coverage than any project.

The four most popular team sports in the United States are basketball. The only one that opens the business path around the world is basketball.

This time, all American media are criticizing the performance of Dream Four.

‘In another 20 years, will the United States say that sports rankings cannot represent comprehensive national strength?’

‘It was not Payton who confronted Jordan, but Garnett…’

While Zhang Hao was waiting for the turnaround time, he was thinking about it while watching.

"Can I sit here?"

Chinese……

Zhang Hao turned around and looked at it... he was stunned for a moment and replied: "Of course."

Zhang Hao withdrew his gaze and had no time to read newspapers and magazines, so he put them away.

There was a little excitement, but Zhang Hao's expression was still calm.

Zhang Hao is considering how to open up the conversation, but he can't be too active. Don't be regarded as a pervert as a child.

But it looks really good!

What does it mean to be 'in my prime, I already have a charming appearance'? Zhang Hao had no idea before, but now he has it.

However, the girl took the initiative than Zhang Hao and reached out to Zhang Hao: "Hello, my name is Liu Ximeizi, just call me Xixi, I'm very happy to know you."

Hao Lai, the topic is coming, Zhang Hao reached out and gently shook it and replied: "Hello, my name is Zhang San, and he is called a madman from the law... No, he is the righteous warrior of light."

"You are not Zhang San, you are Aix. Last month I went to Japan to watch your game against the Dream Team!"

"Really? It's so honorable. Why are you alone? You went to Japan alone to watch the game? It's so dangerous!"

"My mother and I went with me. We went back to Wuhan after watching the Olympics. Today we flew over from Guangzhou. She still had to handle things in Los Angeles. I went back to New York to go to school. I was so lucky. I didn't expect to meet you."

"Thank you, I feel very lucky too..."

Isn't the topic going on?

But, when chatting with a beautiful little girl, you can't help but think about how to talk before you start talking.

After starting to chat, I just started talking about what I could talk to a child.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Zhang Hao was a little stunning...'If I were ten years younger, it would be great to be reeling home as a daughter... But it doesn't matter, I'm going to have a second daughter soon, is it a daughter? I hope I won't be a bad son...'

"Aix, what are you thinking?"

"I think my wife, she is almost 8 months pregnant, and her due date is at the end of next month. I'm wondering if my next child is a son or daughter."

"Do you prefer boys over girls?"

"No."

"Then you don't care whether it's a boy or a girl. Wouldn't you be more surprised when you were born?"

"But I don't want another son, I want a daughter."

“…”

It's quite special. Xixi didn't expect to get such an answer.

Meeting is fate. After chatting for a while, Xixi’s boarding time was right, and the two exchanged emails and ICQ numbers, and the encounter ended like this.

Zhang Hao waited for a while, and his boarding time was also up, so he took the flight to Seattle.

...

"This picture is stingy..."

Zhang Hao arrived at Xita Airport and came out of the airport. He saw a photo of 23+24 on a huge billboard on the roadside... Obviously, it was a splicing picture.

Just after lunch time, Zhang Hao came to the Key Stadium to report.

It is October 8th in US time. Yesterday, the training camp has ended. Today is off day, there will be training tomorrow, and the preseason will start the day after tomorrow.

Although it was a rest day, Zhang Hao's teammates were all there when he arrived at the Key Stadium.

Jason Williams, Cassel, and Ben Wallace rushed up excitedly when he saw Zhang Hao coming.

Jason Williams said excitedly: "Aix, it's so XX! You actually scored 57 points in the Olympics and ended the Dream Team!"

Zhang Hao felt strange and replied: "Jason, aren't you an American? Why do you seem very happy?"
