4. New challenges

Perhaps when Wu Dawei held that press conference in Cleveland, he never expected that it was just his own instant decision that would cause such a great shock to the whole world now.

When he announced on June 25, 2012 that he would still represent the Chinese men's basketball national team in the London Olympics held in the UK this year, countless people immediately talked about such news.

It was as if his small decision would have had a very significant impact on the London Olympics that would start in two months. Although this situation made Wu Dawei feel extremely surprised, there was no doubt that this did make him feel very comfortable!

This shows that Wu Dawei himself is currently extremely important in the international basketball world. This kind of taste of being valued by people does make Wu Dawei feel very enjoyable. There is nothing more wonderful than this, just like the emperors in ancient times. Although there is still a difference with the emperors, it feels very similar.

For Wu Dawei, going to the Olympics this year was not a decision. After discussing with experts, everyone believed that the operation could indeed be postponed, but Wu Dawei must be more cautious and careful.

So for Wu Dawei, this London Olympics trip is not just a challenge, it coexists with dangerous risks. But in this world, aren’t all the great achievements you want to make with risks?

So Wu Dawei decided to represent the Chinese team in the Olympics. After all, the Olympics are held every four years. How many four years can he have in his career? If he missed this time, he would have to wait for another four years.

When Wu Dawei made such a decision, it not only caused a great shock to the outside world, but also began to prepare for the upcoming Olympics in two months.

Since the surgery is not performed for the time being, Wu Dawei will start conservative treatment of his injured parts. Apart from training every day, the most important thing Wu Dawei does is to go to the hospital in Cleveland for treatment.

Of course, the most important reason why Wu Dawei is still in Cleveland is the celebratory walk-through ceremony of Cleveland winning the championship this season at 70 degrees.

The ceremony was arranged at the end of June by the management of the Cleveland City Zhengfu and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Because this year is the Olympic year, the ceremony is not dared to be held at the Queen Mother because many players have been summoned by the national team. If there are only a few people at the championship celebration, it would be a bit embarrassing.

Among the Cavaliers, Wu Dawei, Dwight Howard and Andre Valaijo were summoned by the United States, China and Brazil.

Therefore, the parade ceremony was arranged on the end of June. Wu Dawei was the first time to experience the championship parade. However, although he had never experienced it personally, he had seen various championship parades on TV before.

There are too many professional sports leagues in the United States, so various championship parades are emerging one after another. However, compared to seeing them on TV before, this time, if you have to experience them yourself, Wu Dawei will inevitably feel extremely excited.

He was also the first time a big girl had been in the sedan chair. He was in a very excited mood.

On the day at the end of June, players gathered in the Quick Loan Center early in the morning, and the parade ceremony began here. The team had already arranged the parade bus.

With the golden cup, standing on the roof of the bus, enjoying the cheers of fans across the city, just thinking about this treatment is enough to make people feel excited.

Wu Dawei felt this way, and Dwight Howard, who had the same feeling as him, was extremely excited at this time. Like Wu Dawei, he had already been summoned by the national team and would go to the national team to report after participating in this parade ceremony.

Two comrades who were in the same trench before were about to become enemies on both sides. Dwight Howard was also very excited. While parading, Dwight Howard enjoyed the cheers from the fans, while saying to Wu Dawei beside him: "I heard that you are going to play the Olympics too?"

"Are you ready?" Dwight Howard asked Wu Dawei, saying, "Be ready to be beaten by me!"

"Ha ha!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Dawei laughed and retorted: "At that time, I won't show mercy to you just because you were my little brother!"

"I will make you cry and call me!"

"Then I'll make you cry and call me!"

The two of them argued in the championship parade. Although they were about to become opponents, no one would care about these things at this moment, because everyone was more concerned about the enjoyment at this moment.

Faced with the hysterical cheers and support from thousands of Cleveland fans, Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard felt the wonderful feeling of winning the championship!

It is indeed a great thing to share this joy of victory with everyone. For Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard, this is their gain in pursuing such a goal.

And watching people cheering hysterically for them, the joy of victory also makes their self-confidence stronger. The confidence of the two people is also a bit overwhelming for the London Olympics that will follow in two months.

This season, we have joined hands to sweep the eight deserts, which has greatly increased our confidence in Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard. Although he is not arrogant, he is a rare opponent.

At least Wu Dawei already has this feeling. After defeating Cameron Anthony, LeBron James and Kevin Durant in succession, Wu Dawei really can't find too many opponents in this position.

This also made him think about looking for other excitement. He even remembered the proposal of national team coach Deng Huade to him, which was to let him play the No. 4 position with Yi Jianlian in the national team.

This was something Deng Huade had discussed with Wu Dawei before, because as Wang Zhizhi grew older, there were not many people in the Chinese team who could be able to take on the inside. After all, the most suitable one was definitely Yi Jianlian. Apart from Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi was too old and could not support the whole game, and other young people were useless.

Therefore, if Wu Dawei can take the No. 4 position and partner with Yi Jianlian to start, the old Wang Zhizhi can stand up from the bench. On the one hand, it can fill in the firepower attacks of the starter when the starter comes off the court, and on the other hand, it can better allocate Wang Zhizhi's physical strength and maximize his role.

As soon as this proposal was spoken by Deng Huade, Wu Dawei made him thrill. Because he had not played in the Cavaliers, he had played in the No. 4 position, but because the team was full of talents and there were fewer talents in the No. 3 position, although Wu Dawei had experience, he was relatively few.

Moreover, Wu Dawei's tonnage is not at a disadvantage in the inside line. Although his height is indeed a little worse, Charles Barkley is only less than 196. Although it is rumored that he is 198 cm tall, Wu Dawei doesn't think so. He thinks it is a bit taller in 196.

The feeling of grabbing rebounds on the heads of those who are taller than themselves is what Charles Barkley once told Wu Dawei. That feeling is extremely refreshing!

So if it works, Wu Dawei is of course willing to try to act as the team's No. 4 position. The new challenge can further inspire Wu Dawei's fighting spirit. Tebi just spent an unstoppable season, and now it is time to need new excitement.

The Olympics undoubtedly gave Wu Dawei a platform.

First, the Chinese national team is not as strong as the Cleveland Cavaliers. Second, they also need to face a large number of All-Star teams, such as the US team and the Spanish team.

These are all new challenges, challenges that really test Wu Dawei's ability to lead the team!

So this is something that can inspire Wu Dawei's fighting spirit more.

Of course, this will also make Wu Dawei look forward to it and become more and more thrilling.

This is also one of the reasons why he is unwilling to give up on the London Olympics. Meeting greater challenges is something that every person who has already been extremely successful is willing to face.

And for Wu Dawei, such a challenge is definitely meaningful. If he wants to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to establish a basketball dynasty in the league, the difficulty will be no less than that of the Chinese team's prospects in this London Olympics.

This is more like a training, whether Wu Dawei can lead the team to face difficulties and establish the experience of the basketball dynasty.

Of course, Wu Dawei will take the lead in this!

"I guess you were beaten to the end before you deduct me, Dwight! Don't forget, I know you very well!" Wu Dawei looked down on Howard's threat because he would not match Howard in the whole game, so he would just find an opportunity to cover him!

It was really difficult for him to detain himself. Because the person who faced him was not Wu Dawei, but Yi Jianlian... Poor Ah Lian.

And more importantly, when Howard came to the star-studded American team, it was still a question whether he could have much ball rights... Not to mention being against him...

Wu Dawei was skeptical about this, but he did not dare to take it lightly for Team USA. (To be continued...
