NBA: Starting with Jokic template

Chapter 37 Is my deterrent power so strong?

"Oh my god, Lin Chuan scored 16 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and made all 6 shots in this single quarter. What a performance!"

During the intermission, Yu Jia was simply shocked by Lin Chuan's performance.

Because generally speaking, the Olympic competition rules follow the FIBA ​​rules. First of all, each quarter is only 10 minutes, and there are many differences besides that.

Most players will find it difficult to adapt to FIBA ​​rules after getting used to NBA rules, and even the superstars of the US team are no exception.

This was also the main factor in their failure in previous years.

But Lin Chuan not only adapted very well, he also played the best game of the game.

As long as he has the ball in his hands, he seems to be at ease and the whole court seems to be under his control.

"I'm not surprised that Lin Chuan scored 40+10 in this game."

Zhang Weiping followed closely.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Lin Chuan went off the court to rest, and both sides replaced their players with several substitutes.

Replacing Lin Chuan is Wang Zhizhi, the starting center of the Chinese national team.

Yi Jianlian did not leave the court and continued to play with the substitutes.

Seeing several substitutes come on the field, the Spanish people also relaxed a little.

Because in terms of the depth of the lineup, among the twelve teams in the Olympics, only the United States dares to say that it is deeper than them.

Just now in the starting lineup match, the Spanish team was four points behind, but at the beginning of the second quarter, when the substitutes played against the substitutes, it was their time to catch up and overtake!
Navarro dribbled across half court and saw a three-point opportunity, and he shot it without any hesitation.

Swish!
22: 21!

"Stable."

Seeing that his team had made a three-pointer at the start of the game, the Spanish coach, who had been blushing and short of breath in the first quarter, recovered his composure, picked up the water cup beside him and took a sip of water, as if the situation was under his control.

But Spain wanted to overtake them so easily, and Yi Jianlian was the first to disagree.

He is full of fighting spirit!

As the number one leader and leader of this men's basketball team, although Lin Chuan's sudden emergence made him the number two figure, he didn't care about it.

Lin Chuan is stronger than him, and the capable one will get the upper hand.

However, in the post-Yao Ming era, he, carrying everyone's expectations, still took the initiative to shoulder the burden of the men's basketball team.

Facing Spain, now that Lin Chuan is on the sidelines, he doesn't want to let Spain take the lead and let Lin Chuan come on the court to clean up the mess.

When the Spaniards were completely unprepared, Yi Jianlian made breakthroughs, layups, long two-point shots, and three-point shots repeatedly.

In just two minutes, he scored 9 points in a row.

Wang Zhizhi was not far behind.

As the youngest national player ever, that wind chaser
The boy, although now he has become middle-aged.

But his strength remains undiminished.

This is his last Olympics.

He wants to burn out all his energy for the Chinese team and play in his own style.

He fired continuously from beyond the three-point line and scored 6 points in a row next to Yi Jianlian.

The simultaneous outburst of the two players stunned the Spaniards instantly.

The head coach of the Spanish team, who was drinking water just now, choked. He didn't understand why the Chinese team's inside offense was so strong?
The two starting inside players have such a long shooting range, how can a backup center also shoot three-pointers?

Due to too few timeouts, he could only watch Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian perform on the court with gritted teeth, while yelling at the players to limit him.

But both of them fought madly.

Facing Ibaka's defense, Wang Zhizhi directly pulled up for a long two-pointer and made it again!

Then Yi Jianlian also made an alley-oop dunk, which made all the fans in the stadium excited!

The two men jumped up and bumped their chests on the court to celebrate, and Wang Zhizhi pumped his fist and roared.

He is old, but he is not weak!
The two's extraordinary performance widened the gap again. The original score of 22:21 had reached 52:34 at the end of the second quarter.

Eighteen points behind!

Thanks to Wang Zhizhi's outstanding performance, Lin Chuan did not play at all in the second quarter and got enough rest. He drank energy drinks on the sidelines and looked contented.

However, the Spaniards responded in the second half of the second quarter. With stronger individual abilities and more skilled tactics, they successfully recovered a lot of points at the end of the second quarter.

At the end of the first half, the score was 54:43!

Seeing the veterans on the team perform so well, the Chinese team members were very happy and came forward to high-five them.

"Look, Lin Chuan, if your performance is not good enough, I will consider letting Wang Zhizhi start and make you a substitute."

Lin Chuan laughed and said,

"That would be even better. If I were to go to the bench, it would mean that we are really strong, at least stronger than the NBA champions."

Deng Huade was also happy to see Lin Chuan being so open-minded.

"In the third quarter, you continue to play."

During the half-time break, Deng Huade found Wang Zhizhi, who was resting with his hands on his hips in the player tunnel, and told him the news.

"Really?!"

Wang Zhizhi was deeply moved to hear that the head coach was so confident in him and was willing to let him continue to play even though Lin Chuan was on the team.

But after a moment, Wang Zhizhi was still a little hesitant.

Although he saw that Lin Chuan just acted indifferent, the young man was arrogant and proud. He was invited by Yao Ming. It was hard for him not to think too much when the head coach made such a superior decision.
"Coach, what about Lin Chuan?"

Deng Huade patted Wang Zhizhi's shoulder vigorously.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to him."

"Thank you!"

After the half-time break, players from both teams returned to the field.

The Spaniards sent out Gasol Jr. and Gasol Jr. in advance.

Both of the Chinese team's inside players are too hot and must be restricted.

After a halftime break, the Spanish team seemed to be in better shape. Perhaps it was because they were scolded by the coach in the locker room. Everyone on the field was fighting very hard and making big moves. The Spanish team suddenly increased their intensity and started to catch up instantly.

On the Chinese team's side, Wang Zhizhi was also successfully restricted by Gasol and missed three consecutive shots.

With Navarro making another three-pointer and Gasol making a layup, Spain successfully tied the score in the middle of the third quarter.

67: 67!

Deng Huade was forced to call a timeout and replaced Wang Zhizhi with Lin Chuan.

"I'm sorry, Coach. I betrayed your trust..."

Wang Zhizhi looked unwilling, and Deng Huade stopped him from talking.
"You did your best, didn't you?"

"Trust your teammates, they will win this game."

After a break of one and a half quarters, Lin Chuan finally returned to the court. He took off his thermal jacket and put it aside. He moved his body to warm it up, muttering to himself,

"If you don't move around, you'll get cold."

When the two Gasols saw Lin Chuan come on the court, they couldn't help but show fear in their eyes.

"That Chinese center is on the field again. We must restrict him!"

The head coach of the Spanish team was clapping his hands and shouting at his players on the sidelines, spitting out saliva.

Seeing how excited he was, Lin Chuan went outside the court to serve.

"My deterrent power is so great?"
