Chapter 528 A More Valuable Opponent

In the group match against the U.S. team, Zhang Sixin checked the status of all the players and also allowed the opponent to win by 20 points.

After the game, Lowry and others came to say hello again, and the confidence of the American players was shown on their faces.

They have the capital to be proud of, and the national team will not rely on them, the big devil, for the time being.

Two days later, the national team played against France, which was a crucial game.

Now the national team is also an All-NBA lineup, but it is certainly not as conspicuous as other teams.

After all, marginal rotation is not the same as the main players, or even the tactical core.

Of course, not all NBA players will be reused. For example, Jokic does not have the status of the Knicks in the national team.

The French team's style of play is relatively NBA, which is one of the reasons for their unstable record.

In the team-oriented European basketball, the French team is not so European because of the large number of NBA players.

Compared with last time, the French team has more Parker.

Parker is already a few years old, but he is still outstanding in the international arena.

The other four starters in France are De Colo, Batum, Diaw and Gobert.

With the stronger Gobert trained in the NBA, Zhang Sixin will definitely not play positional battles with the French team.

After the game started, the national team took the lead in scoring again.

Their cooperation is indeed very tacit, and the inside line is high, but their physical fitness is not that strong.

It's just that compared to the last time, the French team is much more cautious, and they attach great importance to the match with the Huaguo team.

Therefore, the Hua Guo team did not take advantage of the opponent's inattention to gain the lead, but the two sides fought fiercely.

The French team pays attention to defense this time, and the national team can only rely on high pick-and-roll shots from the inside in many cases, which is not stable.

Unlike in the club, the national team's substitute lineup is much worse.

Zhang Sixin's rotation is mainly based on defense and three-pointers, so the team's offense is not good after the main force goes down.

It's not that Zhang Sixin doesn't want to play a ruthless player on the offensive end, it's that he doesn't.

And Zhang Sixin doesn't plan to get a 3D into the starting lineup for the time being, and then let Guo Ailun bring the substitute.

After all, everyone in the Olympics paid more attention to it, and the Hua Guo team showed their strength in the World Cup, so the starting double guards can speed up better, and it is not easy to play if there are fewer ball-holding points.

In the case of a disadvantaged rotation, the national team became the lagging side in the second quarter.

After the loss in the first game, some fans were also dissatisfied. Although most fans think that there is no way to lose to the United States, some people will definitely say that they will lose.

Now it is lagging behind France, and many people have started spraying it on the Internet.

Fortunately, Zhang Sixin didn't have time to pay attention to these things. To be honest, they didn't have 100% certainty to win the strong teams in the group. In addition to proper tactics, victory also required some luck.

However, there is no need to worry about falling behind a little bit.

In the international arena, it is normal to observe the situation in the first half and adjust the force after the half-time break.

Although the national team is not as stable as the Knicks, it is not bad.

The French team is said to be strong and strong, but it is also a strong team that can be targeted. Their shooting is actually average.

Zhang Sixin has a lot of experience in Parker mentality. In the first half, the role players shot better. The other NBA's big shots are actually quite good.

Therefore, as long as the national team slightly adjusts the details of defense in the second half, Zhang Sixin is sure to play better.

In the third quarter, the French team directly exerted their strength, trying to hammer the Hua Guo team to death.

But under the more stable defense of the Huaguo team than in the first half, they withstood it.

Then there was the counterattack. Ah Lian came up with a touch and hit from outside the three-point line. Wang Zhelin also hit two inside after he came up.

In this case, the French team, which had attacked too aggressively, did not recover and was overtaken by the Hua Guo team.

The fans who didn't pay attention to Zhang Sixin's arrogance just now shut up.

The fans who support him, speak out more, as if they have won the medal.

Fans are like this, their mood swings are bigger than the players on the field.

At the end of the quarter, the Hua Guo team began to speed up with all their strength, and neither side could defend the other at first.

To be honest, although the French team often play with the ball, they are not particularly strong, and Zhang Sixin's special skills are not easy to target anyone.

In the end, it was decided to target Parker and then let him three points.

It is reasonable for Parker to be able to make three-pointers in the international arena, but with special skills to target, and Parker has a little psychological shadow, he can't make a shot.

"I knew Director Zhang would not let the fans down, and the national team's offense has completely exploded."

"Both sides are on the ground, and it's useless to beat Gobert like this."

"Gobert is like that. He obviously didn't perform so well in the Heat. When Director Zhang trains Zhou Qi, he will definitely beat him."

"Parker is completely useless now, and Batum is also a blacksmith. The mentality of the French team is about to go wrong."

"Director Zhang bullied Parker so many times in the west, they probably remembered the fear."

"Beautiful, Ah Lian and Zhou Qi's double ghost hit the goal, the restricted area of ​​the Hua Guo team is a real no-fly zone."

"Ah Lian is really strong in physical fitness. After defending, he went straight to the fast break...the dunk was really exciting!"

In the last 2 minutes, the Huaguo team always led the opponent by 2 or 3 points.

The French team chose to throw three-pointers in the next two offenses. Batum was confident, and then hit the iron, causing them to use foul tactics.

Under the training of Zhang Sixin, the Huaguo team has no problem with free throws.

Guo Ailun hit the free throw line four times. Although Parker hit a quick 2-pointer next time, the French team's situation was gone, and the Huaguo team won the first victory in the group stage.

There are not many wins, and it is a little bit difficult, but it is enough to win.

Leading the national team to win the game, Zhang Sixin also felt a lot of excitement, especially in this kind of game that was so anxious to the last moment, it was very refreshing after winning.

In the third game, the Hua Guo team faced Venezuela, the weakest team in the group. Of course, they were not particularly weak. After all, they were the champions of the Americas, although their gold content was not very high.

Basketball cup games are really not as influential as football, and many countries don't pay much attention to them. This leads to the fact that the cup champions of each state may not be the strongest team.

This time, the opponent scored first. Although the Venezuelan players were not very tall, they played very fiercely and caused damage at the beginning.

However, the combination of the national team's quick counterattack and positional warfare gradually gained the advantage.

Facing teams with insufficient inside height, Zhang Sixin will also play inside tactics.

But it's not just a low-post strong play, after all, the national team is not strong in this regard.

A high pick-and-roll is good. Both Ah Lian and Zhou Qi have an advantage. The opportunity to fight at the basket is given to Wang Zhelin who doesn't have so much playing time. It's half inside tactics and half consumption.

By the second quarter, the national team was firmly in the lead.

Zhang Sixin is also much more relaxed on the sidelines, after all, the team he leads never collapses in the second half.
