Chapter 279 Breakthrough Achievement
Lithuania thinks that Tang Wenlong succeeded because of carelessness, and he also admires this superstar who has transformed the Chinese men's basketball team. What is the original men's basketball team like? Clearly.

He was also a little thankful that Tang Wenlong hadn't made his debut in 08. If he had met Tang Wenlong at that time, coupled with the peak Yao Ming who needed to double-team all the time, Lithuania might not be able to withstand it no matter how strong it is.The nature is probably similar to the Rockets vs. Lithuania in a weakened version of role players, and to be disrespectful, Tang Wenlong at this time is only stronger than McGrady in the Rockets era.

At least the cheating outside firepower is very troublesome.The zone defense that European teams rely on for survival is not particularly effective in front of Tang Wenlong's precise and unlimited three-pointers.

Jaskovicius collected his mind, raised his right hand and started to organize the attack.

He directly arranged for two inside players to provide double screens for the wing shooting guard Matthew Lis. There is no doubt that Lithuania is a team player who really implements the concept of five positions in basketball. It is a bit problematic to cover the shooting guard in the scoring position. None, even if the shooting guard has no reputation.

Matthews went up the line, Tang Wenlong gave Wang Shipeng a wink, and the two switched defenses.

At this time, Kleiza ran to the elbow area to cover for Valanciunas, and Valanciunas received the ball in the elbow area to support him. Suddenly, he ran back to the basket and made an empty cut. Valanciunas saw it clearly, and directly sent the ball to the ground with a hit.

Kleiza didn't even dribble, and took the ball directly to the basket in three strides. At this moment, Yi Jianlian was called out by Valanciunas. Wang Zhizhi moved slowly and had no time to defend. He watched Kleiza lick the basket and hit the basket. .

"It's not deducted." Tang Wenlong curled his lips, and muttered in a low voice, his tone was quite disdainful.What he was thinking about was why Kleiza, the hanging man, had cut in so empty. The defense of the Chinese men's basketball team was still really a big problem.

Fortunately, on the offensive end, the men's basketball team gave Tang Wenlong great help. After Tang Wenlong made an accelerated breakthrough and passed Kleiza's point, Liu Wei decisively and steadily hit the first three-pointer at the start.

"It's connected in series." Deng Huade roared in his heart.

In fact, Yao Ming was as dominant as Tang Wenlong back then. The problem is that Yao Ming can’t connect the team like Tang Wenlong. Both of them can attract double-teams. After Yao Ming attracts the ball to the outside, the opponent must also defend in place. That's right, when Tang Wenlong made a goal, the Chinese men's basketball team had a three-meter open space. After all, the attacking methods of the two players were very different.

One is mainly post-up singles, and the other is mainly face-up breakthroughs.

Lithuania attacked, and after leading the ball a few times, the basketball was handed over to Valanciunas under the basket to attack Yi Jianlian. Naturally, such an attack would not be effective. Yi Jianlian succeeded in defending Valanciunas alone, protecting The next backcourt rebound.

In the subsequent attack, the Chinese team did not score either, and Tang Wenlong's shot assigned to Yi Jianlian was interfered.

Lithuania succeeded in tactics and was found by Matthew Lis on the outside. He immediately shot a three-pointer. The two teams drew 5-5 and returned to the same starting line.

The tactics of the two teams after the opening were very straightforward. Lithuania used the overall offense to oppress the Chinese team. As long as the Chinese team lost their defense, Lithuania would find an open teammate and score easily.The Chinese side is relatively rough, and Tang Wenlong directly launches the offense. As long as Lithuania assists in defense, Tang Wenlong can also send the ball to open teammates, which can also create open scoring opportunities for teammates.

The head coach of Lithuania firmly believes that the Chinese team's style of play will not last long, and teamwork is the kingly way of basketball games.

So even though the Chinese team led Lithuania by 22 points 19 to 3 in the first quarter, he still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, which is a bit like Phil Jackson.

"Do you need a rest?" Deng Huade looked at Tang Wenlong who came down from the court profusely, and asked in English.

Tang Wenlong turned his head to one side, was silent for a while, and then shook his head, "Forget it, I won't be the main attacker in the second quarter, and I will feint on the court to contain it. This kind of confrontation does not consume too much resistance, and I can still last for 40 minutes. "

Deng Huade respects Tang Wenlong's choice. Long before the start of the Olympic Games, Tang Wenlong approached Deng Huade, hoping to play all the games during the Olympic Games.He is different from Yao Ming. Yao Ming is an insider and can only fight head-on with opponents. When he encounters some heavier opponents, his physical strength will be exhausted quickly, while Tang Wenlong is an outsider. Just like what he said just now, he can stand on the court and do nothing. Containment is always better than sitting off the court.

But Lithuania didn't know that Tang Wenlong was not prepared to attack by himself in the second quarter. Sebutis, who had just come up to defend him, was facing a formidable enemy and never dared to let Tang Wenlong take a step.Several other players were also paying attention to Tang Wenlong's dynamics all the time, and their attention was unconsciously dispersed.

Tang Wenlong let Chen Jianghua break through with the ball, and at the same time played a pick-and-roll attack with Yi Jianlian, who had reappeared after a break in the first quarter, and then let Zhu Fangyu ambush in the bottom corner to break Lithuania's three-two defense.

Although the Lithuanian men's basketball team on the bench was also very good, they still couldn't suppress the Chinese team, and Zhu Fangyu made a three-pointer.Fortunately, after Tang Wenlong stopped attacking, the Chinese team made more mistakes. Lithuania took advantage of the opportunity to have a few more fast breaks and defensive counterattacks. The points difference between the two teams was always on the same starting line.

In the second half of the game, the main players of both sides returned, and Tang Wenlong also took over the ball again. Before the end of the half, Lithuania overtook the Chinese team by 45 point 44 to 1.

The two teams played offensive basketball, and the audience was hooked.

In the second half, as the physical fitness of the Chinese men's basketball team declined, the shooting percentage inevitably declined. Tang Wenlong found out with concern that the situation in the first game appeared. Even if it was an open shot, several shots were missed.

Lithuania took the opportunity to widen the point difference and once established an 8-point lead.

Deng Huade paused to suppress Lithuania's rising momentum, and Tang Wenlong began to choose to attack by himself, directly hitting a three-pointer from the outside without reason, stabilizing the morale of the Chinese team.

Then he singled Kleiza in the low post, turned and leaned back and scored 5 points in a row.

Two shots and one shot, Tang Wenlong felt that his hand was not bad, so he simply didn't pass the ball, unless the Lithuanian double team was particularly strong.

He doesn't push through the defensive line like Tietong, but relies on his personal ability to shoot outside jumpers. There is no one in the NBA who can cover him with height and wingspan at this position. He has a touch again and hits a series of hits. , directly led the Chinese men's basketball team to play a wave of shock waves.

After three quarters, Lithuania overtook Lithuania by 70 points 65-5.

In this quarter, Tang Wenlong scored 15 points like cutting melons and vegetables, and his personal score reached 30. After not being restricted by personal shots and playing time, his scoring is still as terrifying as in the NBA.

In the last quarter, Lithuania broke the boat and simply replaced the veteran Darius and replaced the defender Carnetis, who performed well in this game, on the field led by Valanciunas, directly becoming a major and a junior. The fighting lineup.Through continuous rotation defense, Tang Wenlong was double-teamed frantically.

Deng Huade yelled that it was not good, and replaced Ding Jinhui, who was able to fight and grab the 4th position, to control the rebounds on the court.

Tang Wenlong was indeed subject to some restrictions. As soon as he held the ball at halftime, he encountered a double-team from Lithuania. After transferring the ball, Lithuania interfered with the Chinese team's shots through active running. The shooting percentage was very low, and the lead was instantly eroded. Exhausted.Fortunately, Tang Wenlong sent two beautiful large-scale transfers, and the Chinese men's basketball team hit a three-pointer, otherwise they would have been overtaken.

Tang Wenlong has a high basketball IQ, and the coaching staff has yet to come up with a solution. He quickly changed his offensive style and directly stuck in the low post to ask for the ball.

Lithuania was immediately embarrassed this time. After Tang Wenlong made a low post, the Chinese team could better open up space for singles, and because of Tang Wenlong's wingspan and strength, the Chinese players who passed the ball to him from the outside were not afraid of the ball being intercepted by the Lithuanian players.When the Lithuanian players were about to double-team Tang Wenlong, Tang Wenlong turned his back and stepped back to make a jumper, with exaggerated range and resolute shots, the basketball ruthlessly passed through the net again and again, hitting the heart of the Lithuanian.

"Is this the top and most incomprehensible player?" Lithuania's head coach was dumbfounded, muttering to himself, and for the first time doubted the supremacy of basketball as a team sport.

The victory or defeat of the game depends on the competition of scores. It is easy to score goals after adopting tactics, but not every time. People attack unreasonably in singles, but the hit rate is higher than your goals after completing tactics. Efficiency exploded instantly.

In the last minute, Lithuania was 1 points behind the Chinese team. In theory, the score could be recovered, but the morale of the players fell to the bottom.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated the Lithuanian team for the first time in Olympic history, 92 to 82, and also won by double digits.

The moment the bell rang, countless Chinese fans wept with joy.

"The goal was scored, Tang Wenlong made a decisive 3-pointer, and the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Lithuania! This is a historic moment. The Chinese men's basketball team has made a breakthrough and reached the semi-finals of the London Olympics!" Broadcast to the last 1 Minutes, when Tang Wenlong made the last three-pointer, Yu Jia roared out with a voice almost broken
