If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 65 Misguided Spain
Perhaps because of the fear of the height of the Chinese team, or because they feel that there is no need to work too hard in the group stage, Spain has a slightly strange lineup.

The back line is Lopez, who once played for the Jazz, and Fernandez, who was selected in the same session as Yi Jian, but did not enter the NBA immediately. This is no problem.

But their other three positions are all big men, Gasol is naturally there, as well as veteran Jimenez and the relatively flexible Real Madrid power forward Reyes.

There are no more NBA players in the lineup, and many people think that Spain underestimates the enemy.

In fact, according to Spain's style this time, they may not be underestimating the enemy, but the head coach playing tricks.

They have to change the lineup almost every game, which means that Gasol can't be moved.

It can be said that playing well in this way means that every game is arranged in a targeted manner. The problem is that the lineup is unstable and unable to exert its full strength.

This time, they are definitely the opposite.

Yi Jian will definitely not miss this excellent opportunity like in the original history.

Relatively speaking, the starting lineup of the Chinese team is relatively stable, Liu Wei, Sun Yue and Zhu Fangyu in the backcourt, Yi Jian and Yao Ming in the frontcourt, this is also their strongest and most suitable starting lineup.

After the game started, the Chinese team took the lead in scoring and the game was on track.

In the beginning, Spain flanked Yao Ming when he received the ball, which also gave the other players of the Chinese team a chance.

Soon, Yi Jian got a three-pointer.

He shot without hesitation and hit a three-pointer.

In fact, he hit a three-pointer against the United States earlier, but Spain was still unprepared.

After all, he doesn't give people the impression that he is mainly based on three points, even if he hits one or two, the opponent will not pay special attention.

And Yi Jian didn't rely entirely on this trick. In this Olympic Games, he must make good use of the sniper skill.

Immediately afterwards, there was his most famous trick, a feint shot to break through with the ball, and it was a dunk when he went in.

"Good pass." Yi Jian and Sun Yue clapped their hands.

"They have a tight defense against Dayao, try to give me the ball."

For this national team, let Sun Yue start instead of Wang Shipeng, an absolute coup.

Liu Wei and Yao Ming cooperate skillfully, but in terms of overall passing, Sun Yue is actually more spiritual and can defend.

A player like Wang Shipeng is more suitable for rotation.

After all, Yi Jian, Yao Ming and Zhu Fangyu have three scoring points in the starting lineup. There is no need for another scoring-oriented backcourt, let alone an inefficient scorer.

Yi Jian scored 5 points in a row, and Spain's defense was a little confused.

The point is, with two strong points, it is easier for the rest of the Chinese team to score.

With Liu Wei and Zhu Fangyu's three-pointers, the Chinese team took the lead in the first quarter, playing better than in the original history.

"Haha, it's finally dawn. I felt that the national team has improved in the previous game against the United States, but the American team is too strong, and this game fully reflected it."

"Yi Jian is really good. I was worried that with Dayao around, he would have no room for breakthrough. I didn't expect him to be so stable with three-pointers now."

"After one year in the NBA, Yi Jian has really improved a lot, and his shooting has also improved. At the beginning, he made more dunks, and later his shots became more and more accurate, and he even scored three-pointers."

"I still like to watch Yi Jian dunk... the dunk king, teach the Spanish insider to be a man!"

What makes the fans even more gratified is that there was no problem with the Chinese team during this rotation period.

In many previous games, the main force of the Chinese team was not bad, but the substitute was too weak and the rotation time could not be stabilized, which caused the main players to consume a lot and it was difficult to win in the end.

However, this year, there is a substitute like Wang Zhizhi, who has not yet fully aged and performed well on the bench, helping the Chinese team to stabilize their lead.

Spain continued to deploy troops, but did not get better results.

Their imaginary plan to win the Chinese team in one fell swoop by relying on a strong substitute composed of several NBA players during the rotation time did not succeed.

This is also the particularity of basketball, because only five players can be played, and the individual abilities of the players will have a greater impact on the game.

Spain's overall strength is stronger, but the Chinese team may be able to withstand it with just one player.

You can't hold it all the time, but if a few players in good condition can hold it for a few minutes, there is hope for the game.

After the main force came back, Spain's defense lost sight of another.

Outside Liu Wei and Zhu Fangyu also felt hot, and their lead suddenly came to double digits.

This is a situation that no one expected, and the national team itself did not expect it to be so smooth.

In fact, Zhu Fangyu, their outside attack point, is relatively stable and relatively easy to be restricted.

As a result, there is an extra Liu Wei today, and it will be difficult for a strong team like Spain in the international arena.

At this time, Yi Jian really hoped that there would be no intermission.

The Spanish players are obviously a little confused now. If it continues, the Chinese team can definitely win the game easily.

And given enough time for them, strong teams will definitely realize the problem and make adjustments.

However, Yi Jian also showed his confidence, he had the confidence to hold on.

In the first half, he not only showed his scoring ability, he also defended Gasol most of the time.

After improving his ability, Yi Jian won't suffer at all against an inside line like Pau Gasol who doesn't mainly play strength.

If Spain wants to rely on Gasol to chase points, he will try his best to stop it.

"Good fight, good fight!"

During halftime, the players encouraged each other.

There was non-stop cheering outside, and Yi Jian and other players were in a state of excitement.

In this way, the physical strength may also be relatively large, but it may also continue to be in good condition.

After Yi Jian calmed down a bit, he communicated with his teammates, "Spain is a top team, and they will definitely adjust their counterattack in the second half."

"If Spain shows signs of chasing points, don't panic, I will come out to catch the ball and stabilize the rhythm."

Now the national team's tactics are still based on Yao Ming, but Yao Ming is also willing to be a ruthless tool to attract defensive attention when other players are playing well.

Compared with some star players, Yao Ming is easy to talk about in this respect.

Therefore, Yao Ming would not interfere with Yi Jian's various speeches during the intermission.

And now Yi Jian, everyone is really willing to believe.

"The outside players did a good job today. After the inside players attracted the opponent's defensive attention, we had to make a decisive shot. After we connect the inside and outside, we don't have to be afraid of any opponents." said the national team coach Jonas.

In the first half of the game, the Chinese team played the desired effect, and he was in a good mood.

Jonas looked at Yi Jian. He saw Yi Jian's changes from last year to this year. The Chinese team did hope to break through history this year. As the head coach, he also looked forward to it.

In the second half, Spain adjusted the starting lineup, instead of using three big men, Rodriguez was used, and Calderon was replaced at the first position.

In Spain, the mentality has changed.

They dare not wave anymore, or they are worried.

Yi Jian stuck to Gasol and said, "Don't struggle in this game, it's too late."
