NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 151 The first round of the group stage, losing to the US team

(Begging for a wave of monthly tickets with the cheek.)
The Olympic Games officially started on August 8, while the men's basketball preliminaries started one day later on August 6.

The first day of the preliminaries is the competition of the six teams in Group A, namely Australia VS France, China VS United States, Venezuela VS Serbia.

Due to the time difference, the game between China and the United States started at 8 am on August 7th.

Although the game time is very early, the vast number of Huaguo fans got up early and sat in front of the TV waiting for the game to start.

In fact, everyone knows that in terms of strength, the Huaguo men's basketball team cannot be the opponent of the American Dream Team anyway. When the two teams confront each other, it is considered a good result if the Huaguo men's basketball team can fight for not losing more than 50 points.

But even so, there are still many people paying attention to this game.

"Even if we can't win, as long as the Huaguo men's basketball team can play something of their own in this game and build up their confidence, it will be much easier to play in the group stage later!"

The vast majority of Hua Guo fans think so.

However, the development of the situation is completely different from what they expected.

At the beginning of the game, the Huaguo men's basketball team was unilaterally beaten by the US men's basketball team.

The two teams scored at 10:30 in the first quarter and 17:32 in the second quarter!

At the end of halftime, the score has come to 27:62.

Under the powerful offense and oppressive defense of the American men's basketball team, the Huaguo men's basketball team collapsed on both offense and defense. Only the UAE can barely score by relying on the inside attack.

The strength gap between the two sides is simply too great.

But what disappointed Hua Guo fans the most was Wang Feng's performance.

It can be seen that the head coach of the American men's basketball team attaches great importance to Wang Feng, a player who has performed well in the NBA Finals, and arranged Draymond Green and Paul George, two top perimeter defenders, to mark the entire game.

Under this kind of strict defense, it was quite difficult for Wang Feng to catch the ball, and there was almost no chance of a completely open shot.

At the end of the half, he only scored 5 points on 1 of 2 shots, and his performance was quite poor.

"Unexpectedly, the gap is so big? Isn't Wang Feng all selected in the best team? Why is his performance not as good as Ah Lian?"

"Hey, the NBA players of the US team are too familiar with Wang Feng, especially when there are two teammates Draymond Green and Klay Thompson on the opposite side. They are very clear about Wang Feng's technical characteristics and defects. Sex is too strong!"

"Not only that, Wang Feng is not a particularly strong offensive player with the ball. He used to have Curry and Thompson in the Warriors to create space for him. Now he has changed to the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team. An outside player who shares the pressure for Wang Feng, of course he has nothing to do in this situation."

While the fans sighed, they also hoped that Wang Feng could recover some form in the second half. Even if there was no way to help the Huaguo men's basketball team catch up to the point difference, at least let these Americans know how good our Huaguo basketball is!
However, in the second half, the situation did not get any better.

In the third quarter of the game, the Huaguo men's basketball team's outside line finally improved, but it was not due to Wang Feng, but Zhou Peng and Guo Ailun made 3-pointers respectively.

In this quarter of the game, the two teams scored 20 and 29 points respectively, at least slightly stronger than the first half.

The game entered the final quarter, and the score reached 47:91. The American men's basketball team, which led by 44 points, completely relaxed and began to show off on the court.

Alley-oop dunks, self-throwing and self-dunks, fancy dribbles breaking through the tie rod for layups.

Every goal will arouse the cheers of the audience, turning the Olympic Games into an All-Star exhibition game.

For the Huaguo men's basketball team, only Ah Lian was struggling to support him, constantly digging inside, and scoring difficult points in the fierce physical confrontation with the opponent's inside.

"It's not easy for the UAE. Isn't there anyone in the men's basketball team who can help him?"

"What kind of plane is Wang Feng doing? It's almost a whole game, so let's do something!"

"Hey, forget it, it seems that he is only at that level. In the NBA, with the help of his teammates, he can make some good statistics. He will not be able to fight this kind of tough battle."

……

"squeak--!"

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the score between the two sides was finally fixed at 119:71.

The Huaguo men's basketball team lost 48 points, a complete fiasco.

"Such a result, I'm afraid most viewers are unwilling to see it."

In the studio of CCTV Sports Channel, the commentator sighed.

"This gap in strength is obvious. In fact, if we count the history of the Huaguo men's basketball team and the American men's basketball team, we can find that the 48-point difference is not a big difference. Losing to the American team More than 50 points."

"At least in this game, we saw that the UAE still has a certain degree of dominance even if it faces the inside players of the United States."

"In this game, Ah Lian scored 25 points and 6 rebounds. He performed very well. It is a pity that other players did not provide enough help to Ah Lian."

"The focus of everyone's attention, Wang Feng's performance in this game was very bad. He made 12 of 2 shots and only had 6 points and 1 rebound. His performance was not even as good as that of Guo Ailun and other players. Players, I believe that Wang Feng will be able to quickly adjust back to his state, play a role in the next game and help the team win."

Having said this, the commentator suddenly choked.

Because the camera of the director was shown to the US team after the game.

A glaring figure in a white jersey appeared among a group of blue American basketball team uniforms, and greeted a group of NBA players with a bright smile.

Who else but Wang Feng?

In the camera, Wang Feng had a very happy chat with his former teammate Klay Thompson and future teammate Kyrie Irving, not at all what he should have looked like when he lost the game just now.

For a while, the two commentators in the live broadcast room were a little silent.

What is Wang Feng doing?Do you want to die?
Although he has a good relationship with NBA players, it's a game now!The two sides are direct competitors, and the competition has just ended. As for the rush to flatter?
The U.S. team showed no mercy on the field just now, especially in the fourth quarter, it was just for fun, and they didn't pay attention to the Huaguo men's basketball team at all. Can you bear it?
Seeing this scene in front of the TV, most of the viewers couldn't help their blood pressure soaring.

That's it?Is this also worth looking forward to?This is the high-spirited athlete who held the national flag two days ago?
……

"Damn it, you guys are playing too hard. You know that I have no way to score other than shooting. Is it worth defending like this? Give me some face and let me score some points."

On the field, Wang Feng said to Thompson with a smile that he was not upset about losing the game at all.

"No way, that's how the coach arranged it. After all, you are the only uncertain factor in the Huaguo men's basketball team, and you must be taken care of." Thompson smiled, shook his head and said: "And you also know that Drummond has always been right. You're not being very kind, and he won't miss this opportunity."

"Well, anyway, we will only meet this time in the group stage." Wang Feng shrugged indifferently, "I wish you the gold medal in advance."

After all, he greeted several other players and returned to the bench of the Huaguo men's basketball team.

Gong Luming looked at Wang Feng with a calm face, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, he couldn't help but whispered.

"Wang Feng, after much deliberation, I think it's still a bit inappropriate for you to do this. The risk is too great for you personally."
