Chapter 806 This Is the Peak
Wukesong Stadium turned into a sea of joy the moment the game ended.
In fact, one minute before the referee blew the final whistle, the on-site staff had already started playing a song that everyone knew by heart:
we are the champions - my friend
and well keep on fighting till the end
we are the champions
we are the champions
no time for losers
cause we are the champions of the world
……
In such an atmosphere, it is the greatest respect for the Argentine men's basketball team that the audience can wait until the final whistle blows before celebrating.
Everyone began to hum along with the music in a low voice, slowly raising their decibels, and then it became a huge voice. The voice of "We are the champions" sounded over and over again over the Wukesong Stadium, and the Chinese finally stood at the pinnacle of world basketball.
This is truly the pinnacle!
For the sport of basketball, professional leagues in various countries and regions are indeed a very important part.Basically, the vast majority of players participating in the World Cup are professional players.Every player is working hard in their respective leagues to compete for collective and individual honors one after another.Just like An Luo in the NBA, Yi Jianlian in the CBA, Campazzo in La Liga...but these honors are always at the personal level.Even if some players can stand out and become superstars in that league, they are always limited to a relatively small social level.
Only the World Cup and the Olympic Games can bring this sport to the national level, and only such international events can make a star a real basketball superstar.Just like football, the most influential ball game in the world, those superstars always want to lead their national team to win the World Cup.But no matter which era, there are many guys who have killed the Quartet in the professional league unfortunately fell to the World Cup, and regretted it for life.Now, basketball has also formed such an atmosphere.Jordan, Kobe, James, Durant, Curry...these are all players who have conquered the NBA and the international basketball world. Now, An Luo has successfully joined this group of people.
"We won the championship! We are the champions! We are the World Cup champions!"
After the World Cup came to an end, countless Chinese people were saying the same thing.Some unbelievable, but more excited.During the peak periods of the Tianchao men's basketball team, everyone didn't have the confidence to say such things.At most, it is "We are the Asian champions, the Asian hegemons" and the like.But now, the Tianchao men's basketball team has become the real world champion.
How many incredible upsets have there been in this tournament.
The exit of the Serbian men's basketball team should be the most regrettable thing.As the team with the greatest chance of winning this World Cup, their goal is to defeat the US men's basketball team in the final of this World Cup, in order to avenge the "big revenge" of losing to the other party in the finals of the world's top tournaments several times in a row. .It's a pity that they seem to only have the American men's basketball team in their eyes, so that they underestimate the Argentine men's basketball team.It is more realistic to see this game as an upset. Compared with the American men's basketball team who also fell in the quarterfinals, the proud Serbs did not play their best.
Kobe Bryant's phrase "Team USA, don't think it's stable!" has become the most beautiful golden phrase in the basketball world this year.As the protagonist who said this sentence, Kobe has once again become a focus in the basketball circle.It seems that before the start of the game, he has already seen clearly the journey of the US men's basketball team in this World Cup.They fell in the quarterfinals, not even qualifying for a medal.Of course, it is a bit far-fetched to regard the French men's basketball team's defeat of the American men's basketball team as an upset.After all, the latter didn't have the slightest fluke in that game, and he defeated the US men's basketball team with a real sword.
But this is indeed another biggest upset.In the history of basketball, the US men's basketball team has always represented the highest level of men's basketball in the world.Even the lineup of this year's US men's basketball team is relatively mediocre, and the word "shabby" can even be used to describe it.But beating the U.S. men's basketball team in the World Cup is still an incredible thing.
When one peak is surpassed, another higher peak is reached.
"Even if you recruit the best players, do you think this is the most powerful American team? But even then, we will still face a lot of challenges on the court." When the American men's basketball team was defeated by the French men's basketball team , Bryant expressed his views.He told reporters: "The era of easy wins in international competitions is over. The days of the Dream Team in Barcelona in 1992 are over. The problem now is not that the rest of the world is taking the US men's basketball as the lead. The goal is to catch up, but other countries in the world have made great progress and development of their own."
As Kobe said, after years of development, the distance between other basketball powerhouses in the world and American basketball is constantly shrinking.This is definitely not a bad thing for a sport.The improvement of the overall level is the key to maintaining the vitality of a sport.If it is always dominated by one family, other teams will see no hope, which will definitely discourage the enthusiasm of the players.And this World Cup is an international event that allows everyone to see that "everything is possible".
The two teams, which were considered to be in the quarter-finals at their best, went all the way through, sent one world-class men's basketball team after another out of the championship sequence, and then joined hands to enter the World Cup finals.This is something that has never happened in the top international basketball competitions, and it is also an event that is destined to be written into the history of world basketball.
The Chinese men's basketball team and the Argentine men's basketball team have perfectly interpreted the meaning of the phrase "the basketball court is the place where miracles are born" with their actual actions. However, miracles do not happen by accident.The team basketball of the Argentine men's basketball team showed the vast majority of basketball players in the world how to win when talent cannot take advantage.The Tianchao men's basketball team uses an opposite way of thinking, allowing people to see how much a superstar can do for the team in the game.
Half a month ago, no one thought that this World Cup would have such a result.You know, the Chinese men's basketball team at that time was only a team ranked 21st in the world.But now, all the dust has settled.Regardless of whether the participating teams leave China with satisfaction or regret, they have to wait until four years later to compete.
