365: Luxurious lineup

The Dream Team likes to find young players to play internal practice games, which is a tradition that has long existed.

After all, young players are determined to win any game, so that they can achieve the best training results.

One of the most famous rumors in the world is that in 1992, the dream team with great stars such as Jordan, "Magic" and Bird, lost to the college student team led by Grant Hill, Chris Webb and others in internal training matches.

The title of "The Man Who Beats Jordan and the Dream Team" also made Hill famous in one fell swoop.

Although the authenticity of this matter is still to be discussed and there are many different opinions. The fact is that a team composed of young people is indeed more likely to cause trouble to the invincible Dream Team.

Against this backdrop, Link and his partners eventually arrived in Manchester, the second largest modern metropolis in Britain.

"I can't believe that we came to Manchester for basketball." Cousins ​​started complaining as soon as he got off the plane, because he found that football-related advertisements and posters were everywhere in the airport.

A group of basketball players came to the world of football, which made them feel a little out of place.

Britain itself is a country of football and the birthplace of modern football. Manchester is also a city born for football. Football has even become an important part of Manchester culture.

The number of football clubs in Greater Manchester is the highest in the world, and Manchester's two most famous football clubs, Manchester United and Manchester City, are even more famous all over the world.

Manchester United's home court, Old Trafford Stadium, is currently the second largest football stadium in England, second only to Wembley Stadium, which has 90,000 seats.

This shows the lofty status of football in this city. In comparison, Manchester's local professional basketball team Giants can accommodate less than 2,000 spectators.

Therefore, Cousins ​​sighed, "I didn't expect that we came to Manchester for basketball."

It's as absurd as you climb the snow-capped mountains to Dubai, full of deserts.

"Yes, no one will come to Manchester for basketball. But who would have thought that the most terrifying basketball team in the world is in Manchester at this time? Let's go DeMarcus, didn't you say you wanted to beat the whole game? You can't look back now." Link smiled. This was his first time in the UK.

Of course, the most exciting thing is not to come to the UK, but to be about to fight with the Dream Team!

After receiving a call from Kobe a few days ago, Link immediately discussed with his manager and his companions. Finally, everyone decided to go to the Dream Team!

After confirming the incident by phone with Kobe, Link and his group also officially received an invitation from the US national basketball team, which was quite serious.

Although this is something outside the plan, not everyone has such a chance to play against teams of this level in the offseason. And it’s so annoying to be bored in Los Angeles every day. Everyone has come up with it and feel the enthusiasm of the Olympics.

In this way, Link, Jeremy Lin, George, Cousins ​​and Butler, as well as several trainers including Brickley, arrived in Manchester's land.

There are only 5 players in this group, but since it is an internal training match, it is not a regular game. Basically, it only takes 20 minutes in one round, and Link and the others only need to play with the US team for two days, and they will complete the task.

Therefore, 5 people are enough, and there is no need for substitutes.

As soon as they got off the plane, Link and the others were entertained by American basketball team staff. They were picked up and sent to the car, and they arranged to eat, drink, defecate, and sleep. Although they were not a formal team, Link and others still enjoyed the treatment at the national team level.

The only regret is that Link and the others cannot freely move in Manchester for the time being. Because they arranged their accommodation and took a nap, Link was about to start their work. If you want to visit Manchester, you probably have to wait for the past two days before talking about it.

In the afternoon, Link and his group walked into the Dream Team's training hall. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the training hall!

"We're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Kobe was the first to go up and hug Link, and then paid tribute to the others one by one.

"Thank you very much for coming, thank you for taking the precious time to accept our invitation." Then, the coach of the US team "Old K" Mike Shashevsky also walked up and shook hands with Link and his group politely.

After all, Link and the others are not sparring teams, they are not part of the American basketball team, and they are invited. Therefore, Lao K also expressed his gratitude to them.

At the beginning, the reason why Lao K asked Kobe to call Link was that he thought that Kobe and Link were familiar with each other and were easy to talk to. Lao K knew that if he called himself, he might not have come.

After shaking hands with Kobe and coach K, Link suddenly felt a chill on his back. After turning his head and looking over, he saw those deep eyes.

Black-bellied Du!

Damn, it’s really a narrow road for enemies. You can meet him anywhere!

Durant was speechless. If he hadn't had much say in the national team, he would have tried his best to stop the team from inviting Link to play the game.

"Okay, get ready, let's start a practice game. You five will only play for 20 minutes. Don't worry, it won't cause you to wear too much physical strength."

After Lao K finished his explanation, both sides began to warm up. On the other side of the Dream Ten team, everyone was wearing a unified national team jersey.

Link is basically wearing his own vest. Butler brought the Grizzlies training suit, and Link wore an ordinary black vest. The weirdest one is Cousins, who is very eye-catching and purple shorts.

It seemed that Link and the others were like a group of mobs. But everyone present knew that those five young people were not easy to mess with.

During the warm-up, Link also looked around the stadium. I have to say that the lineup of Dream Ten is really luxurious, and other countries want to cry after seeing it.

Offensive Kaleidoscope Cameron Anthony, "Black Mamba" Kobe Bryant, last season's best defensive player Tyson Chandler, three-game scoring champion Kevin Durant, last season's best sixth NBA player James Harden, the most powerful point guard Russell Westbrook.

In addition, there are "Little Ai" Andre Iguodala, LeBron James, who dreams of winning the NBA championship, two-double machine Kevin Love, the strongest 183 Chris Paul, rhythm master Deron Williams, and Anthony Davis, who was just selected as the No. 1 pick this year.

This lineup of immortals is indeed powerful. In the whole summer, I can never find a game with a higher level than this!

Ordinary people must have their legs weak when they see such a lineup, but Link and his friends are particularly excited!

"Just like last year's All-Star Rookie Tournament, we have to make a big splash!" Cousins ​​kept muttering in Link's ear while warming up.

"I really hope the game can start soon. I'm so excited!" Jeremy Lin was eager to try. After the mid-season reimbursement last season, Jeremy Lin had been eager for a high-level confrontation.

And what about Link? He is naturally looking forward to the next game. If he can reunite with the Thunder Third Young Master in such a game, Link is naturally full of energy!

On the Dream Ten team, Lao K is placing the list of this internal training match. Those who do not have the competition will continue to practice special.

Lao K mainly wanted young players to practice, so he played with two veterans Harden, Westbrook, Anthony Davis, Iguodala and Anthony to stabilize the situation. Although it is not the entire main lineup, its strength is scary enough.

Durant was very upset. He wanted to play on the court, but there was no way, and he had to listen to Lao K. The only way to solve Link's problem was to look at his two Thunder teammates.

After the warm-up, Link and his teammates stood in front of the Luxury Dream Team 10 without any fear!

Lao K smiled. Although Link and the others were strong, he thought the two teams were still incomparable.

It is also great to find confidence while having confrontation. It is also excellent to directly abuse opponents who are too weak, and it will not have the effect of finding confidence.
Chapter completed!
