Super League

Chapter 588 Advance to the group stage

In this game, the Spanish men's basketball team encountered the same problem as the Hong Kong City men's basketball team.

Although he was playing well, he was unable to defeat his opponent. The Hong Kong City Men's Basketball Team still lost to the Dream Team despite Liu Bei's outburst.

This is the impression given by the 08 men's basketball game against China.

The Spanish media even gave the evaluation of "an invincible opponent" and accurately predicted that the Dream Team and the Chinese Dragons would enter the finals.

It can only be these two teams.

The main contribution this time is the men's basketball team's second lineup, a set that has not been verified in international competitions in the past, and some of the players have not even played in the national team.

But this time they performed well against the Spanish men's basketball team. Among them, Luo Xiaoyong and Zhang Luowei received S-level ratings in media evaluations, while Wu Haoqi and Conley received A-level ratings.

Zhang Luowei threw 7 three-pointers in the game against Spain. So far in the group stage, he has averaged 16 points per game and hit nearly 3 three-pointers.

Luo Xiaoyong is even expected to compete for the Olympic assists king. Luo Xiaoyong has a great advantage against Brother Pao. The IQ is higher and the possession of the ball in the round is lower. Although his scoring ability is inferior to that of Pao Ge, the Chinese men's basketball team does not need Luo Xiaoyong's scoring ability too much.

The two small forwards Yuan Yubo and Qiao Yuliang did not perform so well. Yuan Yubo's defense is excellent, but his offensive methods are somewhat insufficient in the FIBA ​​arena.

-

All group stages completed.

Group A ranking:

China, Lithuania, Spain, Australia

B ranking:

United States, Greece, Hong Kong City, Argentina

-

The Chinese men's basketball team won all five games in the group stage.

On the other side, the dream team in Group B also won and advanced.

The Olympic Organizing Committee has already built momentum for the two teams.

What's interesting is that according to the rankings, the China Men's Basketball Team may encounter the Hong Kong City Men's Basketball Team in the semifinals. The China Civil War is also a highlight of this promotion match.

The US men's basketball team's road to revenge is also full of highlights. Whether the Argentina and China men's basketball teams, which took over the U.S. men's basketball team in the 04 Olympics, can stop the Dream Team is also a highlight.

……

Men's basketball training session

The next game of the men's basketball team will be against their old rival Argentina.

The men's basketball team did not celebrate because they were promoted, and all members were still involved in intense training. After all, it is different from the last time and space. Even if you complete the task by advancing in the last time and space, you will earn money if you advance in the next time and space.

In this time and space, the only goal for the men's basketball team is the gold medal, and second place can only be called the biggest failure. Even CCTV directly stated in another Olympics tracking report that "people across the country are waiting for good news about basketball."

So everyone is training hard.

Since tomorrow is Argentina's game, the Chinese men's basketball team only did recovery training and some teaching courses today. Shooting training will be arranged tomorrow to maintain touch.

The men's basketball team does not dare to relax against its opponent Argentina. After all, it is a one-round decision and everything is possible.

-

In the low post area, Yao Ming held the basketball high, followed by Wu Haoqi.

"When you hook, you have to extend your hand a little straighter, and your ball protector needs to be in place. Like me, it's very simple."

Yao Ming didn't know what language to use to express it, so he directly proved it with practice.

After hitting the little fat man with his back, he scored with a hook.

Wu Haoqi looked at the basketball and felt helpless. Yao Ming's height and arms cannot reach an ordinary person of 2.11 meters.

Then Yao Ming made a small expression to indicate to Wu Haoqi that this is very simple and you can do it too.

Wu Haoqi felt that the joke in which Jordan asked players to jump into the air to avoid defenders was not a joke.

However, Wu Haoqi is still very grateful to Big Brother for his serious teaching.

In fact, Yao Ming didn't like this little fat guy at first. Seeing that his body fat rate was so high, he thought Wu Haoqi didn't care about basketball at all. It wasn't until the game that Yao Ming was shocked by Wu Haoqi's talent and recognized Wu Haoqi.

This is why Yao Ming is determined to teach Wu Haoqi's skills. He hopes that Wu Haoqi can support the men's basketball penalty area when he is not on the court in the game against the Dream Team.

Luo Xiaoyong, who was on the sidelines, was reviewing the previous game with the coaching staff.

For the first time, Jiang Xingquan, an old-school coach, saw the use of probability to analyze the game. Luo Xiaoyong showed his calculation results to the coach.

"Scola knows us and may go outside to open up our penalty area. Ginobili should be strangled..."

He Siyuan is the second generation court commander in the CBA. Luo Xiaoyong played He Siyuan in 04 very well. On the sidelines of the court, Liu Guang and Zheng Kailong were sitting low-key doing rehabilitation training.

The two of them have been playing for nearly six years, and they have suffered from injuries for a long time.

This time, their performance in the group stage was not that outstanding. Both players averaged about 10 points per game. The team's leading scorers are Zhang Luowei and Wang Yeju. From the outside, it seems that the two of them are no longer able to use the knife.

"Come back? If you come back, you can have a hurricane."

At this time, the two of them were doing balance training with fitness balls.

Zheng Kailong’s abrupt words,

Liu Guang thought for a while, "I plan to take a look after the contract period ends. I have already been in contact with Great Wall. If there are no accidents, I will play another season in the NBA."

Liu Guang wanted to finish executing the contract before leaving. His original purpose in coming to the NBA was to win a championship, but the league's current attitude towards Chinese players has made his goal even more elusive.

"What about you? Isn't the NBA also your wish? Just give up like that?" Liu Guang always thought that Zheng Kailong would appear in the NBA after winning the championship.

Zheng Kailong said frankly: "To be honest, I still want to take a look. But the NBA is not important to me now. My talent is average. When I faced Kobe, I realized that I was still far from him. . Only now do I realize that I just ate the dividends of the times.”

Liu Guang did not expect Zheng Kailong to say this. Liu Guang also felt that he was able to achieve what he is today because he reaped the dividends of the times.

But before he could finish his words, Zheng Kailong continued:

"So I worked very hard. I was just a college student before. I could only make up for the gap through skills and shooting. Ordinary people like me can't win championships in the NBA, so there's no point in going there. It's better to stay at home."

Liu Guang complained about Zheng Kailong in his heart, saying that he was an ordinary person, but he also agreed with Zheng Kailong. In the end, he was the stupidest, chasing dreams and stars.

……

In the quarterfinals, the Chinese men's basketball team met its old rival Argentina.

As a national team that emerged from the system in 02, the gap between the two teams is getting wider and wider. Now Argentina is completely left behind by the Chinese men's basketball team.

The Argentine men's basketball team still uses the 04 golden generation as the main lineup.

Scola, Ginobili, Puliginho and Delfino are all old rivals. Four of them, including Scola and Gutierrez, are CBA players.

Nowadays, domestic players in Argentina are faced with two choices. Those who are talented can go to work in the United States, and those who are good at shooting can go to Asia to work.

Therefore, the Argentine coaching staff can collect information on most players of the Chinese Men's Basketball Team.

At the beginning of the Argentina game, it was difficult to separate from the China Men's Basketball Team. This is also the situation that many teams encounter when facing the Dream Team or the China Men's Basketball Team. He was able to fight at first, but due to the lack of depth in the bench, he struggled in the second half.

The best performing Argentine player was Scola. Facing Yao Ming, Scola made 5 of 4 shots and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 10 points.

The Huaxia Men's Basketball Team didn't feel very good at the beginning.

They were even overtaken in the second quarter. Obviously the stability of the young players needs to be improved. Intermission 48:53.

Liu Guang stood up in the third quarter. Facing Delfino's defense, he folded the shot in the air in the strong side area without getting rid of it, and hit the target! And caused 2+1.

In the next round, Ginobili broke through with the ball and used the snake dance to bypass Conley.

Just when Ginobili was about to lay up, Liu Guang appeared again and pushed down the basketball behind Yaodao.

After Liu Guang sent a hot pot, he threw the basketball towards the front court.

When the fans at the scene saw that it was Yi Jianlian, many people stood up excitedly.

Zhang Weiping even shouted "Here we come!"

Yi Jianlian took one step and two steps at a time, took the ball at the midline, dribbled twice, rushed into the three-point line and went straight for a layup in three steps.

When the dunk sounded, the Chinese men's basketball team's counterattack came.

The Chinese men's basketball team opened the score with a 5:0 score.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the physical strength of Argentina's main players was as expected. The players finally relied on the willpower supported by the national honor to compete with the Chinese men's basketball team.

Ginobili took over the game in the fourth quarter, scoring 14 points in a single quarter.

But two fists are no match for four hands. Conley's three-pointer and Wang Yeju's fast break. Completely killed the game five minutes into the fourth quarter.

Defeated Argentina 109:95.

The Chinese men's basketball team entered the semi-finals.
