Pick Westbrook

Chapter 368

Swish!
hit!

Sun Yue proudly raised his elbow pads and pointed to his teammates on the field.

"Raul Neto is 185cm tall and is a typical combo guard player. Under the arrangement of the Brazilian men's basketball team, he is now playing a shooting guard on the court."

"Sun Yue's height is 205cm. Although the common position is shooting guard, his advantage in dislocation singles at this height is extremely obvious."

"Now that Sun Yue is still facing Raul Neto, this dislocation advantage will be more obvious."

"Moreover, although Raul Neto is the double MVP of the Brazilian league and is almost an all-around player, he has only one weakness."

"That's defense."

Su Qun analyzed.

After Sun Yue scored in this round of offense, Su Qun finally understood Coach Li Lai's tactical intentions.

Use Guo Ailun to entangle Leandro Barbosa with death on the defensive end, and use Sun Yue to play unlimited singles on the offensive end to consume Raul Neto's physical strength.

The strength of the Brazilian team lies in the organizational ability, scoring ability and breakthrough ability of the double guards Raul Neto and Leandro Barbosa.

But now the Chinese team uses two different methods to consume the physical strength of Raul Neto and Leandro Barbosa as much as possible, and adopts more defensive methods of cutting off passing routes on the court. Let Raul Neto and Leandro Barbosa fall into individual singles as frequently as possible.

Such a defensive strategy and method is extremely murderous.

Yu Jia couldn't help sighing at this time: "Although this is not the first time I have seen Coach Li Lai find the opponent's flaw and successfully attack the opponent's flaw."

"But I still want to give credit to him, it was also an amazing performance."

The first quarter is over.

Guo Ailun was forced to foul three times while defending Leandro Barbosa. At the same time, he only scored 0 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, and 1 turnover.

But when the substitutions were adjusted, Guo Ailun still got encouragement from Li Lai and Guo Shiqiang nodded and applauded with great satisfaction.

Li Nan and Du Feng couldn't help touching Guo Ailun's head.

He accomplished the task assigned by Li Lai excellently, allowing Leandro Barbosa to only have 4 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in the first quarter of the game, and there were 2 turnovers, and his physical exertion was serious.

Although another Brazilian saber, Raul Neto, had an efficient performance of 11 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, his opponent Sun Yue also had 9 points and 2 rebounds. The strong Sun Yue is even more physically exhausted than Leandro Barbosa.

The Chinese team led 26:24.

The second game.

The Chinese team took Liu Wei, Wang Shipeng, Yi Li, Zhou Peng and Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi mentioned that the free throw line took away Brazil's excellent frame protector Thiago Splitter.

At this time, Liu Wei got a lot of opportunities to break through the inside line, and once felt like no one on the court.

His excellent performance also attracted more defensive attention from the Brazilian team. Liu Wei immediately switched to the sudden pass mode and sent assists to Wang Shipeng and Wang Zhizhi in succession.

The Brazilian team was forced to make substitution adjustments in advance.

The Chinese team immediately took the twin tower lineup of Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian's high-ranking deal took Nene away, and Yao Ming singled out Varejao on the inside.

After failing to flop and cheat offensive fouls before, Varejao can only use small moves and fouls to defend Yao Ming.

But Yao Ming is Yao Ming after all. He is the number one center in the NBA. No matter how good the defense is, Varejao cannot limit Yao Ming's offense by himself.

Coupled with Yi Jianlian's outside containment, it is impossible for the Brazilian team to let outside players go to double-team Yao Ming at this time, because the Chinese team sent Zhu Fangyu and Wang Shipeng on the court.

Moreover, Raul Neto and Leandro Barbosa were too physically exhausted in the first quarter, and now they have no more energy to go to the inside to double-team Yao Ming, and can only watch the other side squeeze Brazil in various ways. Team.

At the end of the half, the Chinese team had achieved a huge lead of 52:42.

Second half of the game.

Raul Neto and Leandro Barbosa led the counter attack.

Varejao and Nene, who passed the ball in a row, helped the Brazilian team play an excellent offensive round and once narrowed the gap to 2 points.

At the critical moment, Li Lai arranged Yao's single-player tactics, and still used Yi Jianlian's outside line as a bait to restrain him.

The Brazil team, who saw Yao Ming's attack in the first half of the game, had to double-team Yao Ming very aggressively at this time.

In this way, the Chinese men's basketball team is fully fired from the outside.

Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, and Wang Shipeng hit three-pointers one after another.

The game gradually lost its suspense.

The game is over.

The Chinese men's basketball team won the game 94:86.

CCTV commentary desk.

"Won!"

"Director Su, we won!"

"Congratulations to the Chinese men's basketball team for locking in the quarter-finals in advance, and for the third time in history to successfully break into the quarter-finals of the Olympic men's basketball team!"

Su Qun said with a smile on his face: "We will be with the Chinese men's basketball team at this time."

"Bless the Chinese men on the other side of the ocean, they have proved themselves."

All the Chinese fans who watched the game in front of the TV were boiling right now. They clenched their fists, shouted and screamed excitedly, and applauded the TV screen again and again.

The Chinese men's basketball team advances to the quarterfinals of the London Olympics!
on the field.

Li Lai announced: "Because we defeated the Australian team, and we are far ahead of all the teams in Group B in terms of point difference."

"So no matter how the next group B matches develop, the Chinese men's basketball team will definitely enter the top three in the group."

"Guys, we have tied the best result in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, the Olympic men's basketball quarter-finals! We have achieved our first goal!"

"Applause for yourself!"

After Li Lai's last words fell, all the Chinese players jumped up happily led by Yi Jianlian.

Guo Ailun, who was under great pressure in this game, jumped most excitedly, and even jumped directly on the body of his big brother Yao Ming.

Dayao couldn't be happier, so he naturally acquiesced to the wayward behavior of his younger brother Guo Ailun. He is of the same generation as Guo Ailun's uncle Guo Shiqiang.

Wang Zhizhi smiled and clapped his hands, with the seriousness of the team on his face.

Li Nan and Du Feng said something with a smile, Guo Shiqiang let out a long breath.

"To reach the quarter-finals of the London Olympics is the guaranteed goal of the Chinese men's basketball team."

"With this achievement, it's not a shame to go back to China."

Post-match interview.

A reporter asked Li Lai, "Why is the Chinese men's basketball team so excited after the game, because it has locked in the Olympic quarterfinals in advance?"

Li Lai said seriously: "That's true, of course there are other reasons."

Under the curious gazes of countless reporters, Li Lai continued: "This trip to the London Olympics, the Chinese men's basketball team encountered countless malicious fouls by the Australian team in the first game."

"I lost to the strong Russian team in the second game, and the qualifying situation is not optimistic. The Chinese men's basketball team even held an emergency meeting after that game."

"But fortunately, the players gritted their teeth and persisted until the end."

"We survived flagrant fouls from Australia and won the game, beating hosts England and an undefeated Brazil."

"Winning two first-class teams in the group stage is a situation that has never been achieved in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team."

"Now, the Chinese men's basketball team temporarily ranks second in the group with 7 points. This is also a state that the Chinese men's basketball team has never experienced before."

"That's why the Chinese players are so excited."

The reporter nodded repeatedly.

This is the special significance for the Chinese men's basketball team after the game against Brazil.

For the first time in history, they will advance to the quarter-finals as a strong player, instead of always being dangerous and difficult and difficult like in the past. It depends on the results of other teams to know whether they can advance.

Moreover, the Chinese men's basketball team also blocked the strong teams Australia and Brazil twice in this group match.

The Chinese men's basketball team stood up for the first time.

Another reporter said: "Regardless of whether the Chinese men's basketball team wins the next game or not, you will all successfully advance."

"So, will the Chinese men's basketball team take it easy in the next game?"

Li Lai knew that the reporter wanted to ask whether the Chinese men's basketball team would release water in the next game. He did not choose to answer this question, but looked at Yao Ming beside him, motioning for him to answer.

Yao Ming glanced at the reporter firmly and said, "Relax? The Chinese men's basketball team will not relax. After all, the next game is against Xiao."

"The Japanese men's basketball team who lived a good life."

"The Chinese team will not relax."

Guo Shiqiang couldn't help but sweat twice.

If Yao Ming really said that, it would be an out-and-out international incident, and even the Japanese men's basketball team would jump out and accuse Chinese players of telling the truth in the international arena.

The reporter didn't understand why Yao Ming hesitated to speak, and continued to ask: "The Japanese team and the Chinese team are both Asian teams, and they are also the only Asian teams that have entered the Olympics."

"Geographically, China and Japan are neighboring countries. You should help each other, and the Japanese team has not won a single victory so far. Their situation in the London Olympics is really embarrassing."

"After all, the Tunisian team won their first victory tonight."

At this moment, Li Lai grabbed the microphone, stared at the reporter who knew nothing, and said, "I want to beat them to death!"

8 month 6 day.

The group stage has come to an end.

Most of the events of the London Olympic Games have already been carried out.

The Chinese team is about to usher in the last opponent in the group stage.

Some reporters have been surprised to find that when the Chinese men's basketball team has been confirmed to advance to the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games, there are more Chinese fans in the Olympic Park Arena.

They held some strange banners in their hands, which said: Down. Small. Japan, Japanese women are all over the world
on the field.

All the players of the Chinese team are all ready to go.

According to the habits of other teams in the Olympic Games, when the team has already determined to qualify in advance, most of the main players in the team will have a truce in order to prepare for the subsequent finals.

But the Chinese men's basketball team did exactly the opposite. All the main players were present, and they were all in high spirits, ready for the next game at any time.

Live Tech Desk.

The coach of the Japanese team Takami Suzuki took the initiative to stand in front of the technical stage, smiling and waiting for Li Lai.

Li Lai walked over without hesitation, just wanting to see what kind of mess Suzuki Takami is going to do.

As a result, Takami Suzuki respectfully bowed 90° to Li Lai.

"I have observed and studied Coach Li Lai's coaching in the NBA and Olympic Games. Whether it is creative small-ball tactics or the ability to target opponents' weaknesses, Coach Li Lai is a great leader."

"Coach Li Lai, you are very good."

Li Lai looked at Suzuki Takami who was so flattering, and he said sarcastically at this moment.

"The favorite catchphrase used by the Japanese is so so, so powerful, come on, awesome. Including you like to bow to the strong, but to the weak is a perverted character that bullies you to death."

"All of these show that your nation is not confident, overly sensitive to external things, perfectionism or revisionism, because you have a strong sense of inferiority deep in your consciousness, just like your short stature, Japan Both in terms of land area and history and culture, there are inherent deficiencies.”

"A slick woman who can't even stretch out her hands when dancing. Fighting in several townships is called the Warring States Period. If you don't let it be fought, what kind of person is it?"

"Heh, the woman is walking around town with a small pillow on her back. To be honest, what book 56 makes me very sad."

Live big screen.
