Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Three(2/2)
This is Durant’s true feeling after playing in the group stage.
They had a perfect record of victory in the group stage, but it was not easy to win against the French team. In the end, they only won by single digits.
This information is still very important.
Lin Ying carefully recalled that when the French team Parker was at his peak, he was unable to perform well in the World Series.
At that time, fans joked that Parker was not adaptable to international competitions, but the bigger problem should be the inside line.
For most of the time when Parker led the team, the French team only had Turiaf on the inside.
Diaw also transitioned to playing inside at a later stage, and his height is good for the NBA, but he suffers from his height in the international arena.
Then when Parker retired and Gobert stepped up, even though the French team only had perimeter players of the caliber of De Colo and Fournier, they actually won an Olympic silver medal.
This shows that in FIBA games, there is no defensive three seconds, and the inside is the real ace.
Because Yao Ming is playing injured, his advantage over Gobert will not be that obvious.
"But you don't have to worry too much. They are not very good at playing against the wind. They were originally ahead of us, but after we got over them, they were no longer a threat."
Durant continued.
"I know this. No one can defeat the French before they surrender."
Lin Ying said with a smile.
"Like no one can defeat Green before he surrenders?"
Durant took the conversation smoothly.
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment, and then he and Durant burst into laughter.
This hurdle is impossible to overcome!
But it's a pity that Green didn't come this time, otherwise the scene would have been very interesting.
The two of them finished their coffee and then got ready to go out for a walk.
Although Rio's economy is not doing well right now, it is the largest city in Brazil after all.
It is necessary to spend money to find a few bodyguards and go to busy places.
After all, as Deron and Karl said, basketball is not all of life, this is part of it.
The two of them chatted while walking, and even talked about the fact that Anthony actually went to the slums of Brazil to take pictures a few days ago.
At this point, Anthony is indeed ruthless.
After all, in Brazil, the government and gangs are at odds with each other. If something happens to you, the government may not be able to get you out.
There were many people on the streets of Brazil, but just as he was walking forward, Lin Ying's eyes paused and he stopped unconsciously.
Because he found a familiar figure on the street.
It was a car that stopped on the street. The driver opened the door and a sexy woman got out.
The man also noticed him, and then showed an incredible expression.
Cynthia Dickel.
That Brazilian model!
When he was invited to surf in Brazil before, Lin Ying was stunned and didn't come even though he already had children.
I didn't expect to meet him here by chance.
After turning around, Dicker stretched out his hand to greet Lin Ying. Lin Ying also greeted Durant, and then they went up to meet him.
Dickel, who was a party girl at first, is now a serious Brazilian supermodel.
However, after a few simple chats, Lin Ying felt that Dicker had not changed much compared to before, which allowed him to retain the good impression he had at the beginning.
During the chat, Lin Ying learned that Dicker was here to volunteer for the Olympics.
This volunteer is not a volunteer in the ordinary sense. Although the work content is similar, it is more for publicity.
Unlike in China, Brazil's economic situation is not good, and people's enthusiasm for the Olympics is much lower than expected. Many people even think that the Olympics are extravagant and wasteful.
So in this context, this kind of publicity is even more needed.
Later in the conversation, Dicker and Lin Ying exchanged new contact information and said they would go to his game.
After they separated, Lin Ying called Swift and told her about meeting Dicker.
After he finished the call, he suddenly noticed that Durant turned his head and looked back from time to time.
This is a small detail.
"Are you interested in her?"
Lin Ying said with a smile.
"No, no."
Durant shook his head.
But he still couldn't hide his emotions as always.
"She's a very good girl."
Lin Ying then spoke.
His fondness for Dicker stems from what Dicker did when he was shooting for "Sports Illustrated".
She was not famous at that time, but she would donate the remuneration from the filming to the welfare home in Brazil.
Including volunteering this time is also for charity.
For Durant, Scarlett is a goddess. Falling in love can satisfy his silk-picking fantasy, but marriage is not suitable.
And people like Dicker are the ones who can really run a household.
So Lin Ying doesn't mind being the matchmaker if necessary.
Of course, whether it can be done or not is not his business.
Durant, listening very carefully.
A man's first good impression is mostly based on lust, and with this foundation, he will be willing to learn more.
So after listening to what Lin Ying said, Durant was really interested in Dicker.
"come on!"
Lin Ying finally gave Xiaoshuai Dicker's contact information and encouraged him with a loving look.
…
Two days later, the knockout rounds of the Olympic men's basketball team officially began.
The match between China and France takes place at 10 pm and is the last game of the quarter.
Before them, the US team had just defeated Argentina and reached the semi-finals.
Spain, Australia, the United States, and then this is the last four spots.
Then, Lin Ying actually saw Dicker during the warm-up before the game.
Sitting next to him... Durant!
6ah!
Lin Ying suddenly felt that he had completely underestimated Durant's current combat effectiveness.
But it's true to say that Durant now is indeed different from history in some aspects.
