The Pelicans' successful championship after the reorganization became the most exciting event this year. Although the team has several thrilling names, Li Feng, Rose, Arenas, Al Jefferson, and Elton Brand, their ability to win the championship is still something that no one expected before the start of the season.

When everything was settled, all the media almost all regarded this as the biggest news in the Bundesliga this season, or the earliest news in the Bundesliga.

The New York Times news title is "The Pelicans are totally impossible to accomplish." "The Pelicans are a young team, but it is this team who relied on this year's roster after a major blood change to win this year's championship. As their head coach Van Gundy said, their every step is making history.

The city of New Orleans has never won a championship, but this year is different. They don’t have Morn, Mason, Boggs, and Larry Johnson, but they have Tyrannosaurus Rex, Rose, and return generals. After playing seven finals with the star-studded Nets, they successfully broke the doubts and reached the top. Their championship journey is a living history of struggle."

The Washington Post regards the Pelicans' championship as a kind of team victory, with lofty goals, solid progress, outstanding leaders, not purely pile up superstars, and reasonable team rosters, and their success is not accidental. Just as Pelicans' coach Van Gundy said last summer, the Pelicans have worked hard for every victory this season. Now the Pelicans have told everyone that they have done it.

The New York Post reporter commented that

"The Nets have seven All-Stars, the Bulls are also crowded with superstars, and the Warriors and other teams are similar. In addition to Li Feng, Ross has been detested, and Arenas is not even considered able to play. Elton Brand should have retired long ago, but the Pelicans relied on this lineup to win the O'Brien Cup. They are worthy of respect. Their success is inseparable from their efforts, and their efforts are even more due to this reasonable lineup, with Arenas and Ross holding on to them.

There have been glorious years. They are willing to be inferior to the championship, and Li Feng did not show a strong possessiveness at any time like Kobe. This is a reasonable combination. Their inside line, Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap, will not be as passionate as Howard, nor will they be as fancy as Griffin, nor will they make data like Love. However, they used the Pelicans to prove that their Pelicans mode is worth learning from any team."

Even world-class media have to mention the Pelicans, let alone the Chinese media. Adhering to the principle that success is all Chinese players and failure is all Chinese players’ teammates, newspapers such as Basketball Weekly, Basketball Pioneer, and Basketball Weekly all reported the Pelicans with great fanfare. The first sentence of each report is similar to the content of "Li Feng led the Pelicans to win the championship", but it was just a different expression. At the end of each report, a sharp nonsense was put forward, that is, the Pelicans can win the championship in a small city like New Orleans? Li Feng's strength is unquestionable. Why can't the Chinese team with more than one billion people enter the top four in the world?

After Li Feng won his fourth championship, the other one was put on hold for a long time, but the problem that had been burning the hearts of the fans was on the road again. That is when Li Feng would play the first international game for China. As long as the fans knew, Li Feng would not play a single game for the Chinese team for a day, and this young man known as the Tyrannosaurus Rex might be poached by other countries. However, our Basketball Association leaders turned a blind eye to the NBA legendary performance and took the method of not listening, not looking at it, not wanting to ignore it, as if Li Feng was not a Chinese, and our great Chinese Basketball Association occasionally jumped out like a zombie and shouted loudly. Li Feng is the pride of Chinese basketball, Li Feng is the pride of Chinese people, and the national team will always leave a place for him, and then continue to sleep, without any substantial action.

For the Chinese Basketball Association, the national team is a great political achievement project. A successful national team is the greatest capital for everyone to get promoted and make money. If you operate according to this concept, then forming the best national team with the best players is the best choice for everyone. However, in actual operation, not all the best players have entered the national team. This is because the officials of the Basketball Association have a completely different understanding of good players than normal people. The standard of Chinese officials for talents is to be both morally and talented, and talented people are morally and qualities.

Virtue is a teacher of talent, and in terms of talent and virtue, the first thing Chinese people pay attention to is virtue. If their virtue is not good, then it is useless to have talent. As long as they are more virtuous, they are also top-notch talents. Talent is easy to quantify and it is easy to see that players can pass the ball accurately, and can be able to cooperate with teammates. Even if they are talented, they are subjective and strong. If the leader pleases you, you are a virtuous person. If you don’t like it, you often go against the leader, and you are a virtuous person.

Li Feng is a talented player in anyone's eyes, and the Basketball Association officials are also human beings. There is no need to question this, but in the Basketball Association officials, Li Feng's morality is a loss. Finding a few more women is not a big deal. How many Chinese officials have only one woman, at most they are just unconventional in their lifestyles. However, Li Feng is disobedient, has too strong surnames and is too casual in behavior, which is what the leaders of the Basketball Association are most afraid of.

If this player reveals some inside information about the national team or the Basketball Association before the game, it will not be a waste of life. Therefore, the Basketball Association only strongly supports Li Feng to join the national team, but in actual actions, it did not put pressure on the national team coach Guo Shiqiang. Otherwise, he would not dare not recruit Li Feng if he gave Mr. Guo Shiqiang a few more courage.

The Chinese Basketball Association means suppressing Li Feng's personality and let Li Feng understand that the name behind him is far less important than the jersey on his body. The collective is the most important thing. You can't be too individualistic. If the Basketball Association doesn't use him, no matter how great his skills are, he will have no place to display it. Zhuge Liang is capable, so he must use him. Otherwise, he will only work in Nanyang for the rest of his life. Once Li Feng gives in, the Chinese Basketball Association will definitely give him enough face. After the 2012 Olympics, the Chinese Basketball Association still expects Li Feng to give them face to increase in Rio de Janeiro Olympics in 2016.

However, as the World Championships approached, Li Feng did not express any interest in the national team at all, and did not even express a complaint, which made the Chinese Basketball Association and Guo Shiqiang a little nervous. No one knows what the player is thinking. Could it be that he will really change his nationality and join other national teams? This has never been in the history of Chinese basketball. (In fact, the level is too bad and other countries are unwilling to ask for it)

Originally, the Chinese Basketball Association was preparing to delay it. After all, there were more than two months before the World Championships. However, with the Pelicans successfully winning the championship, Li Feng won three MVPs in a season for four consecutive years. The Chinese Basketball Association and Guo Shiqiang were a little unable to sit still. The pressure was too great, and the media questioned it like a cannon. It turned out that they could block the reporter's mouth through closure fees, but now because Li Feng's performance is too eye-catching, the reporter dared not tell lies against his conscience. The fans were even more reluctant to let go. There were many fans shouting: "Li Feng is on duty, and the Basketball Association is dismissed!" It seemed that Li Feng was going to join the Chinese Basketball Association, and many fans came to the national team head coach Guo Shiqiang to make trouble when he was training, which has affected the preparations for the national team. Now the people of the General Administration have expressed concern about this issue and asked the Basketball Association to adapt to public opinion and quickly solve this problem, not to cause social problems, and pay attention to harmony.

Under the instructions of the Chinese Basketball Association, Guo Shiqiang once again made concessions to Li Feng in the Basketball Weekly, hinting that the national team has a position in Li Feng. Guo Shiqiang said:

"The World Championships will soon begin. After experiencing the glory of 2008, the Chinese Basketball Association now needs an important victory to cheer the fans up. It lays the foundation for the 2016 Olympics. In the early stage, there were no important events and played in the league to take care of the players. We mainly gather domestic players. Now the foreign leagues are about to end soon. Our World Championships will be dominated by overseas players, especially at the highest level of NBA players."

If foreign players and fans are allowed to see Guo Shiqiang's speech, they will definitely be confused. However, as long as they are Chinese, even if they are illiterate, they understand Guo Shiqiang's meaning. To put it bluntly, we did not call Li Feng in the early stage because we took care of him to play the NBA. Now the NBA is over. Of course, his national team must include Li Feng. As we all know, Li Feng is the strongest player. Guo Shiqiang wants to summon players with strong offensive ability and pay attention to crossing from the wing. This is almost the name of Li Feng. But Guo Shiqiang just doesn't point it out and let Li Feng experience it. He believes that a smart person like Li Feng will never understand what he means.

This is the Chinese people's implicitness and face. It seems that they will lose face once they say it. Guo Shiqiang does this a bit like a woman who was forced to be annihilated. In China, ordinary women dare not speak out after being forced to be angry, for fear that they will have no shame to see people when they spread it, and outsiders don't know that she can live a very face-saving life.

But Li Feng was like a lump of wood. After reading Guo Shiqiang's speech, he did not react at all. Under the insinuated and even straightforward questions from many Chinese reporters, Li Feng was still confused, like a little fool, who neither said to participate in the national team nor did he not participate in the national team, but just talked about the summer league in the future.

The reporter from Basketball Weekly commented that

"Last time, coach Guo Shiqiang called Li Feng's name and summoned him into the national team, but Li Feng pretended to be sick. This time, Li Feng had no excuses. He started to pretend to be stupid if he didn't pretend to be sick. We think that the real honor of a player is not achieved in the professional arena, but in the national team. Just like Michael Jordan, if there is no World Cup championship, he will never be a basketball god. Li Feng should not be resentful of the small conflicts with coach Guo Shiqiang, and should relax his mind. All the interests of the country are the first priority, and everything is the interests of the fans are the first priority."

However, something that soon worried Chinese fans and basketball officials became more worried about. Zhao Xiaoze, a reporter from "Basketball World", claimed to be a beautiful reporter who reported at close distance with Li Feng. She revealed the important news that members of the US national team secretly contacted Li Feng.

As soon as this news came out, Chinese fans' nerves suddenly became tense. Facing the pig-like basketball team and shit-like coach, Li Feng is almost the only spiritual opium for Chinese fans. I heard that the US Basketball Association is going to poach, and Chinese fans launched an action nationwide to retain Li Feng.

In fact, Zhao Xiaoze's report this time was caused by selfishness. She is a more patriotic girl. He hopes that Li Feng can play for the country instead of changing his nationality to join the American team, so he exposed this matter and forced Li Feng to choose.

Li Feng cursed Zhao Xiaoze at all without regard for this, because although the assistant coach of the US national team had contact with Li Feng, he did not talk about letting Li Feng join the US team. Instead, he revealed this meaning through Li Feng's agent Tony and Pelicans head coach Van Gundy, which expressed the old coach K's favorable impression of Li Feng, meaning that as long as Li Feng is willing to join the US team, the nationality matter will be coordinated by the US Basketball Association.

It is normal for these people to sit together and drink tea and chat. As long as Zhao Xiaoze doesn't say it, no one doubts about this. However, after Zhao Xiaoze exposes it, Li Feng's pressure also increases. Even Chinese fans from San Francisco and other places come to the Pelicans to ask why Li Feng betrayed his motherland and join the American team, making Li Feng feel uncomfortable in training.

Li Feng had no choice but to hold a press conference to declare his position. At the press conference, Li Feng said,

"No US team or US basketball association official has talked to me about this, and I have never planned to join the US team. I have not considered the matter of the family team yet. It is purely nonsense to say that I am in contact with the US basketball association now. I reserve the right to appeal such fake news. Regarding the national team, I want to say a few words. I actually have a little different understanding of basketball from Coach Guo Shiqiang. This is also the reason why there was a little friction before us. I am familiar with each other and I don't want to work together. This is also the reason why I have always protected this national team.

The reason for staying silent. I just ended a test of my life. I have achieved success. This is not only my honor, but also Chinese fans. I hope that patriotic fans will not disturb my training. I have my own principles for everything I do. No one can change it. No matter how much pressure is, it is useless. Unless some stubborn people change their official-oriented thinking, I think it will be difficult for anyone to accept certain harsh conditions!"
