the rest, only noise

Chapter 888 The Resolution of Dreams
On the eve of the gold medal competition, the game continued as usual.

Jordan dragged a bunch of people to fight until late at night.

At two or three o'clock in the morning, the NBA staff reminded them that it was time to end, because there was still a shooting task tomorrow afternoon.

However, Jordan won't be the first to call it quits unless someone can't stand it.

As a result, they stayed up until five o'clock, and everyone involved in the game knew that this was the last game.When they win tomorrow's gold medal, they will return to the United States and become rivals again.

Jordan still didn't sleep, and then successfully completed the shooting task, and then rushed to the game site to prepare for the final without stopping.

His energy put Wilson to shame.

Before the game, Louis also received a gift.

It is a video of the men's basketball final of the 1972 Munich Olympic Games sent by NBC.

The Soviets beat the US with three contested calls.

This video came at the right time. The players felt that there was no suspense in the final, and Louis also thought so, but thinking this way meant that he would relax mentally.

No matter how improbable, too much relaxation will give the Croats a chance.

They have Petrovic and Kukoc, the former scored 113 points in a single game in Europe, and the latter is the most comprehensive striker in Europe.

Louis asked Zhao Yuanzheng to edit the video and show it to the players. After watching it, everyone's emotions were really aroused.

No one thought this game would drag to the end.

In the group stage, they completely defeated Croatia.

When the finals officially started, Louis followed his wife's advice and changed into a dark blue suit.

When the camera was on him, NBC narrator Bob Costas said: "At 32, Little Lu is about to win his first Olympic title."

Louie's age is sensational.

At the age of 32, he has been in the professional basketball circle for 14 years.

He is young, but his qualifications are not bad at all.

Not to mention achievements.

For Americans, his only flaw is that the letters on the nationality are not USA.

From the first second of the game, when Wilson received a pass from the back of the tragic division and made a three-pointer, it fell into the hands of the Americans.

Jordan steals and dunks;

After Sampson blocked the shot, the tragedian counterattacked to Barkley, and he went to the basket and was unstoppable.

In the opening game, the Dream Team led 41 to 22.

The Croats are desperate.

And the Dream Team isn't about to stop.

Louis maintained the record of 0 timeouts in the whole process, watching how this invincible team killed the opponent again with a strong fighting spirit.

Petrovic scored 26 points all the way, and he is the only player in the Croatian team who can compete with the Dream Team.

Only one person is not enough, Kukoc was completely guarded to death tonight.

Croatia, which couldn't find a second strong point, couldn't even do basic struggles.

From offense to defense, Wilson and Jordan have their own rhythm.

Wilson didn't want to be chased for points when he led the team, and neither did Jordan. The competition between the two made their opponents a victim.

Louie was content and the Dream Team was playing at its best.

This was the best game in the Olympics. Although it was a one-sided massacre, for many basketball teenagers, it was enough to become a dream that they spent their entire lives chasing.

The children of Louis College watched the amazing performance of the dream team in the seventh and eighth rows of seats.

A child named Cheng Yan said: "Sooner or later I will defeat them!"

"No, I will beat them," said another child, Lin Junwu.

They are the children of the fourth phase of Lumei Luyuan.

In the front row of them, one of the three young eagles who had already entered the university turned around and said, "It's not a small tone."

"I think you two are not very tall, but you are quite good at bragging." It was Xiao Laoban from the third period who hit the junior's confidence.

Some people think the dream team is unattainable, while others dream of knocking it down.

Some people are inspired by them, and some people feel lucky for themselves to witness such a team.

In the end, there was only one loser, Croatia.

They were scored 40 points by the Dream Team in 140 minutes, and only scored 54 points themselves.

The tragic loss of 86 points made the world see the horror of this team.

At the end of the game, Tomjanovich handed Louie a bottle of Coke.

Louie celebrated the win with a trademark one-handed twist of a Coke.

After he took a sip of the Coke, he felt refreshed and delicious, and at the same time felt a burst of relief.

From tonight, the work of the Dream Team has come to an end.

He is very regretful, because such a strong team can only coach them and cannot defeat them as an opponent.

Because this team cannot be copied, four years later, the dream team will still be the dream team, and the people will not be this group of people.

When the Dream Team returned to the locker room, the USOC asked them to return to the field wearing sponsor brand clothing to accept the award.This request was opposed by many.

The two groups who were just now happy for the US team's victory suddenly became tense.

At the end of this journey, the conflict between the Dream Team and the USOC broke out instead.

Major sponsors such as Jordan, Wilson, Ewing, and Tragedy have made it clear that they will not wear the clothes provided by the sponsors of the Olympic Organizing Committee to receive awards on the spot.

If they had to be asked to do so, they would rather not go to the awards ceremony.

When these things happened, Louis was outside the locker room. He leaned against the door of the locker room and was not interested in the conflict of interests inside.

He came here for the sake of fame.

Now, his reputation has been established, and his resume has an extra "Dream Team Head Coach", which can be said to be perfect.

But coaching this team has brought a lot of extra feelings, or ambitions, to Louie.

"Old Lu, what are you thinking?" Zhao Yuanzheng asked.

"Don't laugh at me when you say it." Louis said whimsically, "I'm thinking about how to beat the dream team."

"Simple." Zhao Yuanzheng seems to be boastful, but what he said is very reasonable, "The harmony and unity displayed by the dream team in Barcelona is rare, and this state is unsustainable. If we form another dream team at this time-Gary Payton, Reggie Miller, Dennis Rodman, Joe Dumas, Reggie Lewis, Danny Manning, Hank Gaithers, Shaquille O'Neal, Alonzo Mourning, Brad Doherty, Clyde Drexler and Kevin Johnson have a chance to beat them."

So it's up to the Americans to defeat the Americans?
"No, what I'm thinking about is." Louis said in surprise, "If I lead the Chinese team, how can I beat them?"

Zhao Yuanzheng said realistically: "For now, the possibility is 0."

"Yes."

Louis also does not believe that the current Chinese team can beat the US team.

But not now, what about the future?
Just when Louis had a big brain hole, the Olympic Organizing Committee still compromised. They couldn't afford the public opinion reaction that Jordan and others were absent from the awards ceremony.

Then, a strange scene appeared at the awards ceremony.

The tragedian walked out of the player channel first, and saw that he was wearing the Stars and Stripes and put his hands on his chest, blocking both the national flag and the sponsor logo.

Because there weren't enough stars and stripes, Jordan and Wilson didn't wear the flag, but they unzipped their tracksuits and made a wrinkle that blocked the logo.

It was undoubtedly an ugly scene.

Tragedists can play with flags for their own sponsors.

In order to be loyal to their sponsors, Jordan and Wilson can mess up the jacket, and then they have to explain to the media that they are not disrespecting the flag, they are defending the American Dream in their own way.

Excuse Louie's short-sightedness, he really can't see how this is defending the American dream, but since they say it is, it is.

That's all, why don't you obey them?

However, these are things that the media will only notice.

For the audience at the scene, they only saw the players of the Dream Team high-fiving each other and cheering.

Afterwards, the players signaled to the coaching staff to come on stage as well.

Louie refused. Everyone thought he was humble and gave credit to the players. In fact, he simply didn't want to watch the Stars and Stripes rise to the top as a member of the US team.

This is a kind of mentality of standing and standing. He vainly pursues the title of head coach of the dream team, but refuses to face the fact that he is the coach of the US team.

Refusing to go on stage to accept the cheers of the crowd was his last struggle.

Watching the players of the Dream Team congratulate each other on stage, Bird embraces Sampson, Jordan and the tragedian high-five each other, Wilson and Barkley blow kisses to the auditorium, Ewing performs as poorly as the sponsors require, he wants to cry, but the acting is too bad.

Louis looked back at the students of the Road School.

They have all seen the strength of this team, and some of them must have dreamed of their future.

Is the hope of defeating the dream team on them?
Louie certainly hoped so.

He will wait for this day to come.

The awards ceremony ended, the dream team left, the arena quickly became empty, the lights gradually dimmed, and only the staff were left to clean up the garbage.

On the way back, the players of the dream team happily celebrated their victory. When the plane landed in the United States, they parted ways again, turning from close teammates to enemies.

The dream team disintegrated in an instant.

The basketball paradise brought to the world by them was thus sealed and became the best memory of the summer of 1992.
