I have a lot of skills in the NBA

Chapter 102
In this Asian Games, the Chinese men's basketball team sent a red team to participate.With the return of Zhou Qi, Ding Yanyuhang, and the strong joining of Li Yang, this team has been in very good form recently, which makes people see a great possibility of winning the gold medal.

Since the Philippine men's basketball team, which had previously announced its withdrawal from the Asian Games, has returned to the Asian Games and is in a group with the Chinese team, the Chinese men's basketball team will make their first match against this powerful enemy on the afternoon of the 21st.

The withdrawal of the Philippine men's basketball team inevitably reminds people of a recent unprecedented court violence incident.

In the previous Men's Basketball World Cup qualifiers, in the match between the Philippines and Australia, a large-scale conflict broke out between the two sides, and the scene was quite hot.

In the end, FIBA ​​issued a ticket. 10 Philippine players were suspended for different games due to behaviors that violated the spirit of sportsmanship. Coach Vincent Reyes and assistant coach Joseph were also suspended. The Philippine Basketball Association also imposed a fine.

However, as the first opponent of the Chinese team in the group stage, the strength of this Philippine national team is also very good. In early July, FIBA ​​announced the latest men's basketball world rankings. The Philippine men's basketball team ranks fourth in Asia and 7th in the world, following the Chinese team.

Therefore, the Chinese men's basketball team is destined to have many obstacles on the way to the championship, but fortunately, the Philippines did not send the strongest lineup this time.

Twenty minutes before the opening, the Philippine men's basketball team was on the bench.

Alpenlilo, president of the Philippine Basketball Association, stood in front of the bench with a smile on his face, and said to the players under his command: "Comrades, the exciting moment is coming, and your first game of this Asian Games will be ushered in soon. I am here to wish you victory in advance."

"At the same time, I have to remind everyone that your opponent is the former Asian overlord. Although our main purpose of this competition is to train troops, for some reason we failed to send the strongest lineup, but I believe you are also the strongest!!!"

"Therefore, we have to take the game seriously, show our majesty, have a good arm wrestle with the Chinese team, and show them some color. Well, remember to let go of the fight, then I won't bother you to prepare for the game!"

The chairman of the Philippine Basketball Association stepped aside after speaking, while the coaching staff of the Philippine team stepped forward. The head coach Yeng Guiao said: "As for your old opponent, the Chinese team, we have also watched their games, and we should know them well."

"Leaving aside, at last summer's Men's Basketball Asian Cup, the blue team representing the Chinese men's basketball team met us in the first match of the group stage, and finally we defeated the Chinese blue team 96-87.

The presence of Wang Zhelin and Zhou Qi inside the Chinese team is their strongest point. You have played against Wang Zhelin and Zhou Qi many times in previous games, and you must be more familiar with them than I am.In other words, China's internal strength is definitely the top in Asia. "

Speaking of Zhou Qi, everyone looked at Jordan Clarkson.Jordan Clarkson is now a player of the Cleveland Cavaliers. He should know something about the situation of several NBA players in the Chinese team camp.

Jordan Clarkson continued: "The Chinese team has Ding Yanyuhang on the front line and Zhou Qi on the inside line, but their strength is only at the level of the summer league rotation."

"Although there are a few very good shooters on the outside, their physical talent is obviously relatively average, and their physical strength is also a problem. I think as long as they are given a relatively large defensive pressure, they will make mistakes."

"In general, except for me, I think our strength is about the same as that of our opponents. However, I believe that under my leadership, we will definitely win the Chinese team. The question is how many points we will win." Clarkson said confidently, patting his chest.

Everyone laughed, and when they heard what the boss said, they had confidence in their hearts. Besides, even if they lost, they would still stand up to him, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Finally, I have to mention one person." Clarkson said in a solemn tone, "That is Li Yang."

"Li Yang? I've heard that name before." Ye Lizhong (James Yap, Chinese player) whispered.

"It's the No. 13 rookie this year, who is said to be very fast!!!" Zhang Nianxian (Chris Tiu) couldn't help reminding.

"I guess it's him! The new face of the Chinese men's basketball team is him!" Paul Lee said without any surprise.

"Hey, I like to abuse these rookies. This time is a lottery pick. It is said that he is also called "Little Curry". Let me, "Harden", meet him. It's so exciting to think about it!" Stanley Pringle (Stanley Pringle,) eyes lit up.

Stanley Pringle is an American naturalized player with excellent personal technical ability, and is known as Filipino Harden because of his strong scoring ability.

"Who is Li Yang, what the hell? Why haven't I heard of it!!!" Maverick Aha****i whispered with a question mark on his face.

"Didn't you pay attention to this year's NBA draft? Li Yang participated in this year's NBA draft, and was selected by the Clippers with the 13th pick in the first round." Clarkson explained patiently, while looking at the other party speechlessly, complaining inwardly, "This is definitely a pig teammate, and suddenly I feel a bit immobile."

"Oh, the 13th pick. Except for the top three, I don't care about the others." Maverick Anmisi replied lightly, and then shook his head solemnly under Clarkson's expectant eyes.

"Um, are you so awesome? You don't pay attention to those after the first three, you let me, a player with the 2014th overall pick in 46, put my face on!!!"

At this moment, Clarkson just wanted to be angry with the other party, "You are so awesome, why don't you go to the NBA, what kind of fairy teammates are you! Suddenly regretting the big words just released, I am still too young!!!"

The general atmosphere of the Philippine team is still relatively active, and there is no shortage of muscular men who can fight well in the team. Since Clarkson has just arrived and just joined the big family of the Philippines this year, Clarkson's position as the boss is not very stable.

After the main players finished discussing, Clarkson said: "You are right, it is the No. 13 rookie Li Yang. I witnessed the whole process when he came to the Cavaliers for trial training. In short, he has a few brushes, and he is only a few grades behind me!"

"Oh, oh..." Everyone exclaimed, very much in line with the boss's speech, and some even made more exaggerated expressions.

"As for Li Yang, the information I have is very limited. Judging from the videos of only two summer league games, we still don't know what style of play he is good at, his technical characteristics. We only know that his three-pointer is very sharp."

But according to Li Yang's performance in the summer league, our coaching staff made several basic judgments. "Head coach Yan Guiao opened the file and continued: "First of all, Li Yang's height announced in the draft report is 1 meters, but judging from the comparison with other guards in the summer league, the height is obviously inconsistent, at least above 90 meters. "

"According to this height, he is likely to play the first and second positions, but the possibility of him appearing in the third position cannot be ruled out."

While talking, head coach Yan Guiao looked at the guards and reminded them to pay attention. Then he looked at the record book in his hand and said, "The official weight of Li Yang is 85kg, but the actual weight should be 92kg. Judging from the data of height and weight, Li Yang is very similar to the thin version of Dwyane Wade, and Li Yang's speed is also very fast. There should be no doubts about this."

Everyone nodded. Judging from Li Yang's height and weight data, he is indeed similar to Wade. Everyone understands the meaning behind this. Wade's physical confrontation ability is at the forefront in the NBA, which means that Li Yang's physical confrontation should not be too bad.

"Li Yang's height and weight data may not be very accurate. I met him, and his real person looks thinner and taller than Dwyane." Clarkson said.

"Clarkson is right, and this is the second point I want to say." Yan Guiao continued: "Li Yang is very different from the Asian players in our impression. The Asian players in our impression are either too thin and lack the ability to fight, or although they have weight, they have lost flexibility."

"Li Yang is not only physically strong, has excellent confrontation ability, fast speed, and relatively good explosive power, but also should not lose a bit in terms of body flexibility and mobility. His body is more like an American player!"

This time everyone's expressions finally became serious.The strongest point of American players is undoubtedly their physical talent. Americans value muscular fitness very much. An opponent with excellent physical and technical talents will obviously attract everyone's attention.

"The third point I want to talk about is the choice of playing style." Krzyzewski continued: "We don't know the skills that Li Yang is good at, but after the analysis of our coaching staff, we are more inclined that Li Yang will choose three-point shooting."

"Although speed is undoubtedly Li Yang's great advantage, once he is on the court, we should pay attention to his quick breakthrough. But in comparison, the most terrifying thing is his precise three-point shooting technique."

"As I said just now, Li Yang's speed is very fast. Once someone gives him a pick-and-roll, we need other players to quickly assist in defense."

Yanguiao looked at Poy Erram and Christian Standhardinger while talking.In this year's Philippine national team, Yan Guiao can only count on these two inside defenders.

At any rate, both of them are black players who came back from the United States and Germany. Whether it is one-on-one defensive ability or assist defense ability, they are all top-notch in the team.

……

Next, Yan Guiao emphasized a few more issues, and then disbanded the team, and the players began to warm up for the upcoming game.

"Mike, aren't we worrying too much?" Yanguiao turned his head and asked the assistant coach beside him.

Mike smiled slightly and said, "To be honest, I'm really looking forward to Li Yang's performance. Let's see if our Clarkson is better, or he is better!"

The game is about to start, and at this time in the arena, the auditorium is full of seats, and countless balls are eagerly awaiting.

In fact, the reason why there are so many fans is largely because of Li Yang.

You must know that Li Yang is the star of hope in this year's NBA lottery pick, who is about to land in the NBA. His first game in the national team naturally attracted the attention of countless fans.

Thousands of spectators, most of them came for the duel between Li Yang and Clarkson.
