Chapter 161 Hitting America!
The American Dream Team Six is ​​definitely not an invincible existence. In this Olympic Games, they have lost to three teams: Puerto Rico, Lithuania, and Argentina. If Marbury did not break out, they would even lose to Spain.

So, what happened when you met Team USA?The US team is not much better than teams like Spain and Argentina.

Besides, the American Dream Team represents the top existence of the Olympic men's basketball team. They have always symbolized the highest level of basketball. If the Chinese team wants to win the gold medal this year, if they don't meet the American team, some people will definitely say that the Chinese team is lucky. I won because I didn't meet the US team. If I met the US team, I would definitely be eliminated.

Sun Zhuo wanted to play against the US team psychologically. It didn't matter if it was sooner or later. For him, if he couldn't win the gold medal, he would be the fourth or the eighth. There was no difference between the two.

No matter how you look at it, the U.S. team will not be able to win the gold medal this year. Then four years later, when the U.S. Dream Eight team is formed, it will be difficult for you to challenge the U.S.’s status as the world’s hegemony. You must know the U.S. Dream Eight team, but It really sent out all the strongest players in the United States at that time, and the lineup was as luxurious as the Dream Team. The combination of Kobe, James, Wade, Anthony, and Howard, all at the peak, made it difficult for any team to parry. That is the truly terrible dream team, and now this dream six is ​​not counted, so Sun Zhuo wants to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win the US team once.

The time soon came to August 8rd, which was also the last day of the group stage. The opponent of the Chinese team was Serbia and Montenegro. Serbia and Montenegro won the 23 World Championships and are also a strong team. In the previous life, China narrowly beat Serbia by one point Black has become a classic picture recalled by countless Chinese basketball fans.

However, today is different from the past, this game was played very flat, and the outcome is meaningless.

First of all, the situation of the Chinese team is different. When the Chinese team played against Serbia and Montenegro in the previous life, they faced the danger of advancing to the quarter-finals if they won, and being eliminated if they lost. Today, the Chinese team has already qualified and sits firmly at the top of Group A. Serbia and Montenegro have not won a game in the group stage, and have no chance of qualifying.

Therefore, after the start of the match, both sides played very casually. Serbia and Montenegro also had no intention of competing in this Olympic Games due to many reasons. In the end, the Chinese team won another game and won the group stage.

Five hours later, Group A and Group B were all finished, and the rankings came to fruition.

Group A one to four are: China, Spain, Argentina, Italy.

Group B one to four are: Lithuania, Greece, Puerto Rico, the United States.

Lithuania in Group B also won all five games, while Greece, Puerto Rico and the United States all had 3 wins and 2 losses. According to the results of their matches, the US team happened to be ranked fourth, and their opponent happened to be the Chinese team.

"Ah! Why! After waiting for so many years, I finally waited for the Chinese team to play so well in the group stage. I was looking forward to winning the top four this year and competing for a bronze medal. But why is it so unlucky? As soon as the group stage came out, they met the United States Team! If you lose, you can only compete for seventh place!"

"The idiots of the Chinese men's basketball team! They know they've been winning all the time. They don't have any strategy. Don't you know how to guard against the American team? Now, we won all the group matches, but we were eliminated in the quarter-finals. There is a bird in many games!"

In 2004, there were already many trolls on the domestic Internet, and they were deeply in love with each other. They all hoped that the Chinese team could go further, but a quarter of their opponents were the US team, which made them no longer Dare to have hope for the Chinese team. The strength of the American team is recognized by the whole world. Even if Puerto Rico and Lithuania won the group stage, if you let them play against the United States in the knockout round, they will still tremble nervously.

The American team has this kind of strength, otherwise, how could they kill the Spanish team, which ranked first in the group with a complete victory, in the previous life?

After the ranking came out, domestic fans were worried, while players from other countries began to gloat.

Olympic Village, the room of the Spanish men's basketball team.

"Hahaha, I really sympathize with the guys in the Chinese men's basketball team. They won the first place in the group, but they directly met the US team. I guess the Chinese team may be heading for the top three this year, but now, sorry, They can only compete for No.7." Fernandez laughed.

Pau Gasol also sneered: "I guess Sun should now regret that he worked so hard when he beat us in the first game. We deliberately let them lose. It seems to be the right choice."

Argentina has the same idea.

When Nocioni heard that China was going to play the US team, he jumped up excitedly: "Haha, guys, we must go to the scene to watch the match between China and the US! I want to appreciate Sun's appearance when he was eliminated. .”

Ginobili said, "You haven't told me, do you have any personal grievances with Sun?"

Nocioni waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, anyway, they will be eliminated soon. I once said that there is no strong opponent, and Sun can't go far in the Olympics. Now it seems that I am not wrong. They are not Did you get eliminated as soon as you got out of the group stage? Hahaha..."

……

The whole world thinks that it is a disaster for the Chinese team to meet the US team, and it is absolutely impossible to win. This makes Sun Zhuo suffocate and can't wait to prove himself on the field.

That night, Sun Zhuo came to the basketball court rented out by the Chinese team for extra training. Unexpectedly, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening, and there were still people here.

"Big Zhi." Sun Zhuo was very surprised. Wang Zhizhi was already sweating profusely from training, and he seemed to pay more attention to the game against the US team than he did.

"Hey, Sun Zhuo, you're here." Wang Zhizhi also beckoned to Sun Zhuo, and then continued shooting practice.

Sun Zhuo practiced with Wang Zhizhi for a while, and gradually guessed the reason why Wang Zhizhi practiced so hard, and asked, "Will NBA scouts come to the game against the US team?"

Wang Zhizhi is now eager to seek a contract in the NBA. The game against the American team will definitely attract the attention of all parties in the American NBA. This game is equivalent to a trial training opportunity for Wang Zhizhi. If he performs well this time , and may get an NBA contract for this.

Wang Zhizhi wiped off his sweat: "There should be. Besides, aren't Larry Brown and Popovich the coaches of the Pistons and Spurs? If I play well, they might sign me. Now Zhu Fangyu and Yi Jianlian and the others, listen I was a little scared when I said that I was going to play against the US team, but you don’t seem to have anything to say, so confident?"

Sun Zhuo shook his head, "The U.S. team is definitely not easy to play, especially they know me very well. Both Larry Brown and Popovich have just played against me in the playoffs. They know my personal ability very well. They will also Try your best to limit me, and never give me so many corner three-point opportunities like Italy. Big Zhi, I need you and Yao Ming to stand up and help me, and we must drag the game to the end. If the last moment can maintain a stalemate If not, I still have a way to win."

Wang Zhizhi nodded: "Yao Ming and I will definitely stand up and won't let you fight alone. Don't worry. However, as you said, they all know how to defend against your breakthroughs, dunks and corner three-pointers." , It will not be easy to score at critical moments."

Sun Zhuo smiled and said confidently: "I will definitely surprise them, just wait and see!"
