Chapter 858 The distance between the top of the mountain and the abyss
The Chinese team reached the final, and the opponent was the dream team who was determined to redeem themselves.

You know, they haven't won the world championship for four consecutive years, which is a great shame for the dream team named after dreams.

The failure of the Olympic Games and the World Championships made the American Basketball Association recognize the fact that the gap between world basketball and American basketball is gradually narrowing.

Therefore, this time the U.S. team does not allow failure. They send the current strongest lineup to participate, and they will not return until they win the championship.

As long as the Dream Team doesn't make any mistakes, no matter who their opponent is, they won't lose.

From the standpoint of James, Kobe, Wade and others, if the opponent in the final is the Chinese team, it would be great.

The NBA has a lot to settle.

Bai Jidong is full of enemies in the NBA, so on the night of the finals, these invincible superstars targeted him especially obviously.

"White Wolf, although I don't like this kind of victory, I will enjoy this night." James said with a relaxed expression.

Bai Jidong smiled, then broke through James, leaning on Howard's body to score a layup.

The dream team played very relaxed at the beginning, until Bai Jidong scored consecutive points and led the team to overtake, a sense of crisis enveloped them.

How familiar feeling?In the NBA, isn't that how the White Wolves break them down?
But now it's not like in the NBA.

All members of the dream team are Bai Jidong's defeated opponents. They gather together for the same goal and fight against each other. This is the basketball version of the Avengers.

No matter how strong Bai Jidong is, he can't stop the dream team's round-the-clock battle. After fighting hard, he still can't stop the indiscriminate bombing.

Before the end of the third quarter, the Dream Team took the lead firmly, holding a double-digit advantage.

This advantage is neither big nor small, but it can still leave a glimmer of hope for people.

Bai Jidong didn't listen to Robin's advice, and continued to play, which led to bad results.

After a breakthrough, Bai Weidong dribbled the ball into the basket, collided with Howard and caused a foul. When he landed, his feet slipped, he fell, and his back was injured for the second time.

After being carried off the field, Bai Jidong did exercises and found that the pain was not strong, so he made a decision on the spot that everyone opposed: "I will continue to fight!"

"Enough, White Wolf!" Robin would never let him mess around.

Yunus asked: "Is there any difference between you and not you now?"

"There's a big difference!" Bai Jidong pointed at the venue, "These bastards thought they won, but they didn't! The game is not over yet! I will hold on till the end!"

Jonas vacillated, looking at the others, hoping someone would make the decision for him.

However, who dares to make this decision?Who has the authority to make this decision?

Yunas couldn't resist Bai Jidong, "Okay."

"White Wolf, we all make mistakes. When we grow old, we will regret the stupid things we did when we were young. Tonight's incident is definitely the stupidest thing in your life!" Robin said fiercely.

Bai Jidong continued to play, and the "MVP" rang out in the Bird's Nest Stadium.

"Although I really want to see you unlucky, but in this situation, you'd better not come up and fight." Kobe said.

Bai Jidong remembered the "You shouldn't come, I don't have to come..." dialogue in "Lu Xiaofeng".

"But I have already come, and I will never back down." Bai Jidong said.

Kobe snorted coldly, like a cold-blooded beast without emotion: "Then I'll let you know how bad this decision is."

The gap in strength is obvious. The Chinese team fought to the end and lost the game by 13 points without any suspense.

Bai Jidong put his hands on his hips, raised his face, let out a breath of foul air.

"For the first time in four years, White Wolf failed."

"In the past four years, as long as there were competitions he participated in, such as the Asian Championships, World Championships, and NBA, he was the champion, and he was none other than him."

"He's so tired."

There is endless regret for Bai Weidong. Some people say that the Chinese team has dragged Bai Weidong down, and Bai Weidong took the responsibility on himself.

"We have proven ourselves, we can become world champions, I am responsible for the loss tonight, I am responsible for the loss."

The United States successfully climbed to the top and achieved redemption, while the Chinese men's basketball team set the best record in history, and at the same time achieved a breakthrough of zero Olympic medals in basketball.

Of course there is also bad news, that is, Bai Jidong's back injury has worsened.

As soon as the news came out, the whole country was in an uproar.

The media and fans criticized him verbally, from the director of the basketball management center to the head coach of the national team, Jonas, who was scolded from the inside out.

As soon as the national team match ended, Bai Jidong set off to return to the United States for treatment.

The doctor proposed two options. One was direct surgery to completely cure the back injury, but it required a seven-month truce.

In other words, Bai Jidong will not be able to make a comeback until March next year at the earliest.

Another option is conservative treatment, no surgery, mainly recuperation.

"Fuck, it's crazy, why does he like playing games so much?" Robin exploded with anger, because Bai Jidong chose conservative treatment.

Any player who is still at the peak will probably have surgery without hesitation when encountering this kind of thing, but it is better for Bai Jidong to directly choose conservative recuperation which is extremely harmful to his career?

There are less than three months before the start of the new season, and this time will definitely not heal the injury.

Therefore, when the new season starts, Bai Jidong will play the game while recovering from his injuries.

Isn't this the same as Bird at the beginning?What is the reason why Bai Jidong has to play the game?

Robin asked Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong just replied: "We are the defending champions, and now I am the only All-Star on the team. If I miss most of the season, have you considered the consequences?"

"I will not watch the team fall from the top of the mountain to the abyss!"

"Crazy, really fucking crazy!"

Injury is the nightmare of all athletes. No matter which sport, there is no one who is not talking about it. This guy is so good that he played with an injury?
"Now I have every reason to suspect that White Wolf fell stupidly in the game and has been unable to make the right decision."

"Put your stinky farts on, you just fell stupid, I have a very clear mind, a layman like you can't understand!" Bai Jidong cursed.

It's not just Robin who doesn't understand or accept Bai Jidong's choice, everyone around Bai Jidong doesn't understand.

Chu Meng became the main force in persuading the team, "Don't you want to retire at the golden age like Bird? Do you know how many people played with injuries and fell to the root of the disease?"

"Who told you these things?" Bai Jidong was stunned when he heard that.

Chu Meng said seriously: "It's not important, the important thing is that you have to have the operation right now."

"It's not that serious, don't worry." Bai Jidong comforted him in a low voice.

Bai Jidong persuaded Chu Meng with all his might.

As long as Chu Meng didn't object, he would have no worries. Other people's objections were meaningless to him, so he didn't need to take it to heart.

Except for some unavoidable activities, Bai Jidong started a three-stage life of staying at home, going to the hospital for treatment, and training.

Being injured has its benefits, Bai Jidong enjoyed a period of time comparable to retirement.

The days passed quickly, and time passed like running water.

As soon as August passed, it became September, and the team members gathered one after another.

The first to return to the team are usually rookies and fringe players, who need to make a good impression on the coach's mind through training.

This year, the Timberwolves selected three rookies. They selected Zhao Li with the No.11 pick in the first round, JR Giddens with the 29th pick in the first round, and Deron Washington with the 29th pick in the second round.

Needless to say, Zhao Li, Bai Jidong had never heard of the other two.

This is also normal. There are only a few hot rookies every year, and hot rookies are often lottery favorites, so they are destined to miss the Timberwolves.

"Bai Lang, hello." Giddens looked very excited when he saw Bai Jidong for the first time.

Bai Jidong smiled, "Hi, nice to meet you."

Giddens plays the second position and is a player who can play a role on the defensive end. He can contribute steals and blocks at the guard position, and he is excellent on both ends of the offense and defense.

Of course, Giddens' excellence is also compared to his college days, and most of his advantages are not very eye-catching in the NBA.

The other guy, Washington, is a little mediocre and looks like the kind of player who might not even be able to play in the NBA.

By observing Washington's training, Bai Jidong can't see any possibility of him staying in the NBA.

However, Bai Jidong is not God, he cannot judge the future of others, he can only leave it to time.

Among this group of young people, Bai Jidong is unique, he can enjoy the best treatment, such as no training.

In order to protect Bai Jidong, Casey allowed him to arrange the training plan by himself.

Bai Weidong couldn't wish for it, his back injury made it difficult for him to do a lot of high-intensity training like before, so he had to focus on it.

In just two months, Medved has changed beyond imagination.

From body shape to hairstyle, everything has changed.

Bai Jidong visually estimated that Medved had gained at least 10 catties.

Then came the one-on-one training, Medved's evolution almost scared Bai Jidong into a fool.

A rhythmic post-up, the person in charge of marking him is Old Willis.

"Boy, is this what you're capable of?" As soon as Old Willis finished speaking, Medved used the big dream step, tentatively and fraudulently swayed past the old Willis, and hit the board with a big hook sideways.

Bai Jidong opened his mouth wide, looking too relaxed.

This sense of calmness is like the freehand brushwork of a super insider, a sense of smoothness that does not violate harmony at all...

"What's the matter? It's only been two months." Bai Jidong wanted to know who cast a spell on Medved.

Then, Bai Jidong held back again and stepped forward to ask.

Don't forget, Medved is a genius.

A genius is different from others. It only takes him a month and a half to study a technology that ordinary people spend a year and a half.

It's like, Bai Jidong spent 18 years playing basketball and got his wish to enter the NBA; while Medved wasted 22 years, but started in the playoffs after less than a year of contact with professional training, This is the talent of God.

"Boss, you can rest easy and recuperate, and leave the new season to us!" Medved discovered Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong just smiled, then turned and walked towards the gym.
