Chapter 215
While Serbia has a strong inside line, its outside line strength should not be underestimated.

Except for Teodosic, the other outside players also play in major European leagues.

Although they do not have NBA experience, they are equally strong in the international arena governed by FIBA ​​rules.

Among them, Teodosic's partner on the back line-combo guard Alexander Rasic is currently playing for the Belgrade Partizan in the national league.

Although the team has declined now, it was also a top giant in Europe back then, and its foundation still exists today.

Although Rasic is the main force in the league, his strength is relatively average. On the offensive end, he mainly relies on three-pointers, but his efficiency is not stable.

Of course, then again, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although Guerrilla Belgrade has declined, it is not something that CBA can touch.

And Rasic's general is only relative to his teammates, and it can be said that he is not in vain for the guard group of the Shanghua Men's Basketball Team.

As for the striker, the Serbian team is even more talented.

The first is Savanovic, who plays for the La Liga Cagasol team.

Although the Cagasol team has been reduced to the position of deputy squad leader in La Liga last season.

But Savanovic averaged 14.2 points per game and made more than [-]% of his three-pointers, which is enough to prove his strength. He is absolutely outstanding in a top league like La Liga.

The backup small forward Tabek is currently playing for the Greek giants Panathenaics team.

The team has a dominant position in the Greek domestic league and has won almost all league championships. However, the young Tybic is just an ordinary substitute in the team.

Apart from the two of them, Marco Kaiserje, who was born in the local league-Red Star Belgrade, is not an ordinary person.

In last year's Champions League, he averaged 9.1 points per game and is a three-point shooter who prefers to make a living on the outside.

From the perspective of player composition, although there is only one active NBA player in the Serbian team, Kostic, most of the other players are also main players in major European leagues.

Several of them have already proven themselves in high-level competitions such as La Liga and the Champions League, and the team's strength on paper is definitely not weak.

More importantly, these players have played in Europe all year round, and they are definitely ahead of ordinary NBA players in terms of adaptation to FIBA ​​rules, as well as tactics and teamwork.

It can be said that after several years of precipitation, this Serbian team led by Teodosic has faint signs of returning to the top. All they lack is an opportunity.

The opponent of the national team's last two warm-up matches is exactly such a strong Serbian team.

Of course, as the participating teams of this World Championships, Serbia is also actively warming up with various players.

Just a few days before the arrival of the Huaguo men's basketball team, they had just played a match with the Huaguo men's basketball team's rival Xila team.

However, in that game, the two teams made too many moves and unknowingly got angry and a large-scale conflict broke out, causing the game to end hastily.

Krstic, Serbia's only active player in the NBA and captain of the team, was exceptional in the clash.

He picked up a chair and shot the Greek player Bruces directly, causing the latter's head to bleed profusely, and at the same time pushed the whole game to a climax.

Although the security personnel responded quickly and quickly entered the field to quell the riot, the players from both sides were still unconvinced after the game, and even another round of bloody brawl broke out in the player tunnel.

Comparing this, Du Zhe suddenly felt that the conflict he had with Boduolige in the past two days was simply trivial.

This also made FIBA ​​furious. Seeing that the World Championships are about to start, such a vicious brawl can still break out. This makes FIBA ​​decide to make an example of others and severely punish a wave of Kostic, who is a young bird.

Kostic was first held in the police station for one night, and then although he was released, he was still subject to FIBA ​​investigation.

Now not only will he not be able to play in the next warm-up with the Huaguo men's basketball team, but he will even be suspended in the World Championships.

What Huaguo fans are more concerned about is that if Xilu, the other party of the gang fight, is also suspended, it will undoubtedly be good news for the Huaguo men's basketball team who are in the same group.

However, Serbia currently has sufficient manpower in the interior, even if Krstic cannot play, their strength is still very strong.

On August 8, the two Chinese and Sai teams conducted their first warm-up.

In this game, the national team basically continued the style of play they played against Bodoli.

However, Serbia's teamwork and integrity are obviously on a higher level than that of Bodoli, and the defensive strength is not the same as that of Bodoli.

This kind of defensive intensity is nothing to Du Zhe. After all, the defense he faced in the playoffs last season was sometimes even more exaggerated than this.

As an active NBA player, UAE has not been affected too much, and can still maintain a stable and normal performance.

But for other domestic players, the intensity of the game against Bodori seemed to be the upper limit of what they could bear. Under this intensity of confrontation, their performance fell off a cliff.

Du Zhe played 32 minutes, made 26 of 14 shots and scored 39 points.

UAE played 30 minutes and scored 22 points and 8 rebounds. In FIBA ​​competitions, he is definitely a leader in the national team.

Although the two teamed up to score 61 points, other teammates on the national team performed mediocrely. In the end, the Chinese men's basketball team still lost to Serbia 79:88.

The next day, the national team's second warm-up match against Serbia started again.

This warm-up match is an informal teaching match, with a total of 5 quarters.

Because of this teaching match, the national team focused on examining other role players.

In the end, the national team lost another game with a score of 77:115.

With Du Zhe only playing one quarter, the scoring ability of the national team plummeted, and the total score in five quarters was even less than yesterday's total score in four quarters.

At this point, the warm-up matches for the national team throughout the summer are all over.

夏季联赛2胜3负,斯坦科维奇杯2胜2负,再加上这一轮海外拉练的1胜5负,国家队今年夏天的总战绩为5胜10负。

Although the overall winning rate is relatively average, it has been considered a considerable improvement compared to before.

Moreover, the national team won three of the four games that Du Zhe played in, which also gave the team some confidence.

Compared with the peak national team in 08, Du Zhe is now an absolute strength on the outside. Although Yao can't play on the inside, the UAE has continued to evolve in the past two years.

It can be said that the current strength of this national team is only stronger than its peak in 08.
