You'd better wrap me

Chapter 98 The Butterfly Effect in [-]
August NO.15 at two o'clock in the afternoon, the Chinese men's basketball team played against Spain, and Su Yang played as the starting shooting guard.

When it came time to go on stage, Su Yang called the whole team together.

"Brothers, we have been practicing one-star four-shot play for more than a month. Today is the time to test the results. No matter what happens later, even if we made 13 of 0 shots before, as long as you receive the pass from me and Dayao For the ball, we must resolutely shoot three-pointers. Our goal in the first stage is to qualify for the fourth place in the group. Don't worry about the top four facing the US team in Group B..."

Since returning to China to start the training camp, Su Yang has been promoting the one-star four-shot style of play, which is Howard + Turkoglu + Lewis + Courtney Lee + Ralph Alston, and Howard is more capable in the low position. Dayao, who can also play pick-and-roll coordination, Su Yang himself acts as a super ball-handler stronger than LeBron, and all other players are replaced with either three-pointers or good defense.

In order to achieve such a goal, Su Yang strongly recommended Wang Shipeng, who is still inexperienced, to join the team. By the way, he temporarily recruited veteran Hu Weidong, and Li Nan and Zhu Fangyu, who are stable three-pointers, formed a lineup for grabbing points at critical moments. Many people made it public. be opposed to.

But because of the full support of Dayao, Harris, Yunus, and even Director Min and others, the team finally took shape.

"We just want to increase the stability by means of competitions. We just go ahead and hit good results. We have already won the quarter-finals. This time, the goal is to be the champion. Trust me, trust yourselves, trust the support of 12 billion people, and do it It's over!"

"It's done!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

Then the game started.

Dayao won the jump ball and Liu Wei pushed forward slowly.

The men's basketball team started with a five-out delay.

Su Yang received the pass from Dayao on the left wing, tried the three-threat action for a while, turned around and made a gesture to pass to Zhu Ba who was raised by Dayao, but actually threw the ball to Dayao who was blocked by the opportunity.In a typical reverse UCLA cut, Dayao is better positioned.

Then he started and rushed to the bottom line on the left, ran a pass and cut, tried to cooperate with Dayao, and opened the space if he couldn't.

Spanish defender Roger followed the defense very tightly. Yao failed to find the opportunity to return the pass. Instead, he bent his knees and made a strong sit-up. He turned and sank to the bottom to start a forced layup. Score the ball.

Easy to attack Spain, after continuous high pick-and-rolls, Gasol took the ball from the left waist to face the slightly green Arab League. He raised his hand and swayed his left hand to make a shot. , rushed to the basket and dunked steadily to score points.

The two teams then switched offense and defense.

The men’s basketball team played five outsides + reversed UCLA’s start. Spain’s Antonio suffered first and got stuck in the left waist ahead of time, trying to slow down Dayao’s rhythm, but Dayao immediately gave up his waist and turned around to block the Spanish defender. Roger,
Su Yang took the opportunity to move the ball to the right, and then asked Zhu Ba to cover the 45-degree three-point line. He forced a dislocation at the top of the arc and faced Spanish small forward Rodrigo. Stopping and raising your hand is a three-pointer.

The basketball slammed into the net hollowly.

The two teams switched offense and defense again, and the Western Battalion team stacked their hands. After consecutive screens, the small forward Rodrigo faced Zhu Ba alone in the short corner, directly savagely charged, pushed Zhu Ba to the basket, and forced a jump. Twist in the air to put the ball in.

Turning around, Dayao and Zhu Ba continued to perform pick-and-rolls again. Su Yang rushed to the top of the arc with the help of a stagger cover, successfully attracting the attention of the Spanish duo's defense, and Zhu Ba made another pick-and-roll to block Spanish center Antonio.

Su Yang hangs the pass at the same time.

Air-connection bangs into the net.

The men's basketball team got off to a pretty good start.

However, the men's basketball team was weak in three positions, and it was not very able to defend against the Spanish attack. After halftime, the game was tied.

During the halftime break, Harris followed Su Yang's suggestion, did not do any analysis, and did not engage in bloody encouragement. He only let the men's basketball team fully rest, and the training strategy provided by Su Yang earlier in June was very good. to help the team recover.

Then the second half of the game started.

Spain took the initiative to adjust its strategy, focusing on double-teaming Su Yang and Dayao, but the two passed the ball out, and the three-point efficiency was low.

As the game time became shorter and shorter, the men's basketball team fell behind more and more. Seeing that the momentum might collapse, Su Yang started the heads-up mode, opened the heads-up with the whole audience, retreated from the middle distance and made mid-range shots, and played against Spain in a fancy way. Defender Roger took five goals and forcibly bit the score.

Spain followed up with a one-point four-pointer. Su Yang passed the ball to the low post, and Dayao encountered an early assist defense. After the ball was divided again, Zhu Ba and others' three-point shooting percentage rebounded, but the pressure was still too much. Not stable enough, missing three shots in a row.

At the last moment, Su Yang started the heads-up mode again, but the lore ball failed to hit, and the men's basketball team lost to Spain by two points.

苏扬全场空砍34分8助攻，大姚空砍24分12篮板，全队三分球命中仅有34%。

Lose or lose, but the men's basketball team found confidence.

The one-star four-shot model is feasible, as long as you continue to hone it, it will almost achieve the expected effect of slanting your sword.

CCTV5 also gave a positive report. All major basketball forums in China praised the team's performance, and the loss is worthwhile.

In the evening, Su Yang pulled everyone to watch the US team game, boosted the team's confidence, and directly "prophesied": "Let me tell you, the US team is a paper tiger. Their outside shots are biased, and Duncan on the inside hasn't understood the FIBA ​​rules yet." ..."

Zhu Ba shook his head and retorted: "Xiao Su, I am very convinced of your playing, but when it comes to the strength of each team, I think I know better than you. The previous few training games can't be counted. We didn't take it seriously at the time. They only take serious precautions against you."

Su Yang didn't argue either.

In the blink of an eye, Duncan was sent off before he played the full 20 minutes. Marion was beaten to the ground by Puerto Rican defender Akira Arroyo. LeBron was not easy to play for 2 minutes. Be blown away step by step.

In the end, Puerto Rico beat the United States 92 to 73.

"Ah, this?" Zhu Ba stood there dumbfounded.

Su Yang raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "Trust me, I can win."

Dayao and the others burst out laughing upon hearing this.

One day off, NO.17 at 93 o'clock in the morning, the men's basketball team faced New Zealand and won directly 62 to 5. Su Yang made various pass assists, Zhu Ba scored five three-pointers, and veteran Hu Weidong made his appearance in the last [-] minutes. , Actually hit two ultra-long shots.

At noon, Su Yang discussed the opponents in Group A with Dayao and others, emphasizing that although Argentina only narrowly beat Serbia and Montenegro by 1 point, apart from Ginobili, Scola and Pugio Ni and others are also great.

Turning to the afternoon game, Argentina lost to Spain by 11 points, and the US team narrowly beat Greece 77 to 71.

Before going to bed, Su Yang emphasized again: "Our goal is to qualify fourth, and the group stage is more used to practice the one-star four-shot mode. Don't lose confidence just because you lose, and don't lose confidence just because you win. become overconfident…”

On NO.19 the next day, the men's basketball team faced Argentina.

After the whole game, it was a 79-82 loss.

Su Yang scored 36 points in the air. Others, including Dayao, were all very uncomfortable for Argentina's zone defense. I can't keep up with my strength.

Back to the Olympic Village after the game, Harris and Jonas bluntly hoped that Su Yang would save his energy in the group stage where there was little hope, because the knockout round was played for three consecutive days. Yang himself pulled the span.

"I can do this all month!"

I can play for a month!

Su Yang smiled and waved his hands to indicate that it was unnecessary.

Knowing that the two head coaches are kind, but I must always let the whole team have the mentality of 'we are only a little short'.

After a day off, the men's basketball team will play against Italy again.

What's interesting is that the Italian men's basketball team is also a four-shooter tactic, and they also want to use a slanted sword, but the strange thing is that the offensive efficiency of the Italian men's basketball team is low, and the defensive efficiency is quite strong. Unfortunately, in front of Su Yang, all single defenses are useless. It's a decoration.

At the end of the game, Italy also began to double-team frantically, but the men's basketball team was full of confidence, and Li Nan scored 6 three-pointers.

At the end of the game, the men's basketball team beat Italy by 15 points, and the picture of the whole team lifting Su Yang to celebrate appeared on the news broadcast.

In the same afternoon, the U.S. team lost to Lithuania by 4 points, and the record became closer to Su Yang's prediction.

In the evening, the men's basketball team has a meeting.

Su Yang emphasized again: "According to the previous goal of fourth place, we have already qualified with two wins, and if we win one more game, there is a high probability that we will rank fourth after Argentina because of the win relationship, so we can play whatever we want. Free play!"

The coaching staff headed by Harris agreed, and Dayao and others also thought it was feasible.

On the 23rd of the next day, the men's basketball team faced Serbia and Montenegro.

At the end of the game, the men’s basketball team made a rare 21 three-pointers, and the skier Radmanovic was suspicious of his life, beating Serbia and Montenegro by 36 points, while Su Yang sent 21 assists, breaking the Olympic record for men’s basketball assists Records, left in history.

In the evening, Argentina regretted losing to Italy by 1 point, and won three times in the group stage, ranking third by beating the men's basketball team.

The men's basketball team qualified as fourth in the group, tying the top eight in history, and played against Lithuania in the knockout match according to the rules.

The U.S. team is also fourth in Group B. According to the rules, it is too unexpected to face Spain, which is No. 5 in A. According to CCTV[-] analysis.

According to the schedule, the men's basketball team gets three days off.

In addition to the regular three-point rotation training, he also practiced defense against players such as Lithuania's Linas Kleiza.

During the training break, Su Yang pointed to the Lithuanian player profile to compare with the UAE: "When I was in my third year of high school in the United States, Rivals ranked high school students on the Rivals website, and this Linas Kleiza was ranked alongside me. No. 16!"

"Then you can't blow him up the day after tomorrow?"

Before Ah Lian said anything, Zhu Ba rushed to answer: "I will give you the small forward position, let him feel your strength as the number one pick in the NBA, let him understand what China's strength is, and then tell him, like you There are five more in this country!"

Ah Lian and others burst into laughter upon hearing the words, and the atmosphere of the whole team was great.

On the morning of the 26th, the men's basketball team played against Lithuania.

Compared with Spain's exquisite tactical coordination, Argentina's double-teaming, and Italy's four-shot defense, Lithuania has no particularly outstanding tactics, except that players such as Kleiza and Sangueira are excellent, and their offensive and defensive coordination is relatively disciplined, like the civilian Spurs.

But Su Yang's strength is even more outstanding. He caught Kleiza and beat him up, successfully attracting other Lithuanians to participate in defense or double-teaming, and then distributed the ball to Zhu Ba, Li Nan and others, and scored a three-pointer. Although it was difficult to prevent Lithuania from attacking, the men's basketball team finally defeated Lithuania 102 to 91, broke through the best eight-quarter record in various world competitions, and ranked in the semi-finals for the first time in history.

苏扬爆砍38分9助攻，大姚拿到21分6助攻15篮板，王仕鹏干进5个三分。

Domestic basketball fans celebrated the Chinese New Year ahead of schedule, five CCTV channels finished broadcasting, and one continued to broadcast, and the small forum directly shut down.

Various companies called Su Yang one after another, hoping to be endorsements, and Su Yang transferred the business to META company.

In the afternoon of the same day, in the upper half, the U.S. team, which was leaner than a camel, eliminated Spain. Argentina narrowly beat Greece. Optimistic about men's basketball.

no time to rest,
On the morning of the 27th, the men's basketball team played against Italy again.

As before, Su Yang and Dayao singled out to break the game, encountered double-teaming and various passes, while Zhu Ba and others' self-confidence built up in several games showed results, and three-pointers rushed in.In the end, the men's basketball team beat Italy by 16 points and advanced to the final.

At the end of the game, the commentator Yu cried bitterly, lamenting that the Chinese team finally waited for the double king combination, and will become a world-class team in the future. However, major domestic basketball forums went down again, and basketball fans met in bars and other places to watch the finals. Stores held various activities.

Su Yang received a call from his parents, saying that the business sales of his family's clothing store had skyrocketed, and many customers paid without trying them on.

Another set of games in the afternoon, the United States played against Argentina.

The two teams played very anxiously. LeBron and Anthony didn't get to play time. Wade became the main force. Score a lot without breaking through.

In the end, the US team narrowly beat Argentina 91 to 89 to enter the final, and Wade contributed a very important 8 points in the final quarter.

LeBron and Anthony celebrated with Wade.

TNT reporter Craig Sager interviewed Wade: "What makes your mid-range shot suddenly become extremely efficient?"

Wade shrugged and smiled slightly: "My mid-range shot hasn't become an efficient scoring method, but I have been practicing because I was in the basketball center of Marquette University, watching Su Yang and LeBron, two top high school students. At that time, I made up my mind to practice COSCO Investment well. Tonight may be the reward of long-term practice. As for the future, I don’t know..."

Hearing Wade's words, everyone in the men's basketball team gave Su Yang the thumbs up, and Zhu Ba deliberately laughed: "Thank you, you have cultivated a potential opponent for us invisibly, and you will defend against Wade in the final tomorrow. , it is too fierce to be able to shoot and shoot!"

Su Yang shrugged in response.

After all the teammates dispersed, I checked the text messages and mailboxes, and found that Alba, Yanxi, and Irene were all going to watch the decisive battle, or they had already booked their tickets before taking off, regardless of the final result, the game is over tomorrow, and they want to compete with He stays together.

　Ask for tickets and follow up, thank you Zhi Yinuo for your reward.
