Chapter 277 Blind Date?

278, blind date?

"Wang Hao, congratulations, you won the MVP of this Asian Championship!"

Yes, on the second day after the game, the Asian Basketball Federation also announced the individual awards for this Asian Championship.

That's right, in addition to the Asian Championship championship, there are also various individual awards selected by the Asian Basketball Federation.

The most important among them is naturally the MVP.

However, Wang Hao didn't pay too much attention to this award, after all, it was not worth much.

After winning the Asian Championship, you still have 3 skill points, but as a valuable player in the Asian Championship, you only have 1 skill point.

Moreover, Wang Hao's Most Valuable Player award is actually a bit false, or in other words, it was intentional by the Asian Basketball Federation.

Compared with other people winning the MVP, it is obviously more meaningful for an NBA superstar to win it.

This significance is not only for the Asian Championship itself, but can even promote basketball within Asia.

If nothing else, when you hear NBA stars being called such things, it is estimated that many people will pay more attention to the Asian Championships.

Not only in Asia, such news may even appear in the United States.

It was reported by the American media, and the Asian Basketball Federation was instantly excited when they thought that this kind of thing might happen.

This is also true, and the American media is really paying attention to it.

Yes, this is the main reason why the Asian Basketball Federation awarded the Most Valuable Player of this Asian Championship to Wang Hao.

As for personal data, of course Wang Hao is not bad either.

He averaged 16.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game, and also won the scoring and assist titles in this Asian Championship.

From the perspective of this data, Wang Hao deserves to be named the Most Valuable Player of this Asian Championship.

However, Yao Ming's performance is not bad. In this Asian Championship, he averaged 13.4 points, 10.1 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game.

Yao Ming won both the rebounding and shot-blocking titles, and his defense was crucial to the Chinese team.

Moreover, Yao Ming's personal performance is also the only double-double in this Asian Championship.

Participated in the national team competition for the first time, won the Asian Championship, and was the Most Valuable Player of the Asian Championship.

This is such a big news that CCTV will not miss it and immediately arranged an interview.

No, in the early morning of the next day, everyone was already preparing to go back to their respective homes, and he still had to be interviewed.

"Thank you. It's mainly due to good luck! In fact, everyone played very well this time. Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, everyone played very well."

"How do you feel about participating in the national team game for the first time?"

"Of course I am very excited. I have always thought that my biggest dream is to wear the national team jersey.

Now I have fulfilled my wish, and I have performed well and helped the national team."

Regarding the interview issues, we have actually already communicated with them, so of course there won’t be too many surprises.

Moreover, Wang Hao has been prepared for it for a long time. To be precise, he should have made the draft for a long time.

"So what kind of judgment do you have on the strength of the national team? We all know that next year is the World Championships."

To be honest, Wang Hao is quite optimistic about the strength of the national team. After all, the foundation is here.

With him, Yao Ming, and Wang Zhizhi, there is no reason not to be optimistic.

Of course, it is not easy to say how good the Chinese team is. After all, there are still many strong teams in the world.

However, it is not the kind of invincible.

Especially in the past two days, as the Chinese team easily swept across Asia and won the Asian Championship.

The most important thing is that in this Asian Championship, except for the fight with Lebanon, almost no opponents can cause trouble to them.

What's more important is that even if they fight, they win.

This made the Chinese basketball community very satisfied and even vaguely proud of themselves.

In the reports in the past few days, many media have shouted: Break out of Asia and go to the world.

What’s even more exaggerated is that some media are even analyzing the Chinese team’s prospects of winning the World Championships next year.

Some of them, just to impress, even said something about guaranteeing medals and striving for gold medals.

To be honest, these media really dare to say it!

Of course, Wang Hao naturally understood that the media did this kind of thing, exaggerating to attract attention.

The media can think so, and so can fans, but players can't see themselves clearly.

The reality is that, under the encouragement of the media, the players of the Chinese team are actually a little complacent.

To be honest, this is very fatal.

Once a team loses sight of itself, it will be difficult to get desperate shots during the game.

Let’s just say that the Chinese team in Asia does have a huge advantage, but this advantage is not certain.

Once you are careless, accidents may happen.

The 1997 Asian Championships was a problem. It was not that the Chinese team was not strong enough, but that there was a problem within itself.

Regardless of the fact that this is just an Asian Championship, in fact, it is a pity to lose this time.

Not only did the Chinese team miss the 1998 World Championships, but more importantly, it made the Chinese team miss out on their 10th consecutive Asian Championship.

From 1987 to 2005, a total of 10 Asian Championships were held.

Except for 1997, the Chinese team won all the championships. Tell me, what a pity this is!

In this case, Wang Hao of course has to cool down the team.

"The strength of the national team is of course very good, especially in Asia, which is considered unique.

However, we must also see clearly the reality that Asian basketball is not strong in the world.

In addition to the strong American team, there are also South American teams and European teams, all of which are very good."

"South American team?"

When Wang Hao heard about the American team and the European team, the CCTV reporters all agreed very much.

But when he mentioned the South American team, he was surprised. Are you sure you were talking about basketball, not football?

"Yes, South American teams, including Argentina and Brazil, are actually quite strong.

In the past few years, a large number of South American players have entered the European leagues and achieved very good results.

Now, many of this group of players have begun to enter the NBA, and their abilities are quite good."

It is said that it is a South American team, but in fact it is mainly Argentina. The golden generation of Argentina is beginning to emerge.

…

Wang Hao has already warned him. As for whether he listened or not, there is nothing he can do about it.

After all, he is just a newcomer to the national team.

Moreover, he also believes that the players who can enter the national team cannot all be so mediocre.

After the interview, Wang Hao did not leave in a hurry, but waited for his parents to pick him up.

That's right, mom and dad are also here in Shanghai.

They are no strangers to Shang Hai. When they were young, they studied in Shang Hai University.

It would also be good to study and study abroad together.

This period of time happens to be a holiday, and it is summer vacation. Knowing that his son is playing a game in Shanghai, of course his father Wang Weiguo will not miss it.

Although my mother Liu Mei is not interested in basketball, she is still very concerned about her son's games.

The couple decided to take a quick trip together.

In fact, my parents had already come to Shanghai a few days before the start of the Asian Championships.

However, Wang Hao was preparing for the competition at that time, so the two of them did not disturb him, but took a trip down memory lane in Shanghai.

"Mom and Dad!"

"Hey, son!"

The family has not seen each other for half a year, and now they are finally reunited, which is naturally a very happy thing.

"How was the game this time? You have to compete every day, isn't it very tiring?

By the way, I saw someone was injured in your match against Lebanon, are you okay?"

The first time my mother saw Wang Hao, she was naturally concerned and asked about his welfare.
