If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 70 Another Model

In the third quarter, the German team failed to score in double figures again, and the Chinese team's lead was also in double digits as it was in the first quarter.

The German team had no choice, the main players started desperately without a rest.

But the harder they worked, the more mistakes they made.

That is to say, with Nowitzki, relying on Nowitzki's personal ability, the German team did not collapse.

At this time, the physical strength of the Chinese team began to have problems again.

In fact, as long as Yao Ming has a problem with this point, there will be a chain reaction in other points, because the strength of other players is completely insufficient.

However, with Yi Jian now, the situation is different.

After Yao Ming's offensive and defensive strength declined, Yi Jian began to take over the game.

Don't cover, pull the singles.

In the inside line of the German team, no one can keep up with his breakthrough.

But if the opponent came over with a small player, Yi Jian's strength could still crush them.

In the end, the German team took the risk of flanking from the outside, but at this time the game time was running out.

The opponent pinched, Yi Jian passed the ball, and then came to the free throw line to catch the ball with his back, completely helpless.

"It's Yi Jian again, this ball is really smooth."

"The Chinese team is leading, so we don't need to worry at all... The ball is good. We got a chance through four passes, and Yi Jian is not soft at all!"

"We are going to win, Chinese team, come on!"

There was no miracle. Although Nowitzki broke out in the final quarter and scored in double figures, he couldn't restrain Yi Jian.

In fact, Yi Jian scored just over 20 points, but the scoring at critical moments in the first and second half extinguished any possibility of a comeback for the German team.

In this way, the Chinese team won three consecutive group matches. Even if they lost the last game, they may still hold the second place in the group. After all, Spain won the final opponent of the Chinese team in the group match, Greece.

In this case, the mentality of Chinese players is much more relaxed.

Apart from training, Yi Jian also paid attention to other competitions.

He had paid attention to it in his previous life, but when he watched it again, his blood was still boiling.

Some things will not change with changes in status and wealth.

The Olympic men's basketball game is still played every two days, and it is the same in the knockout rounds.

The intensity of the game is not small, but because you don't need to run around, it is actually less exhausting than in the NBA.

And in China, eating feels much more comfortable.

Everyone comes from different cities, but senior chefs can make delicious dishes that everyone accepts.

It's not that Yi Jian is bragging, it's mainly because delicious food is relative.

The catering of athletes, especially abroad, often has nothing to do with taste.

But it is also a small regret that they have to bear. After all, they earn so much, it is necessary to be stricter.

If you stay at the peak for a few more years, you can earn a lot more. After you retire, you will naturally have the capital to taste various delicacies.

The Greek team is not easy to play.

It's not that they are stronger than Spain, but that they restrain each other, and the Greek team is stronger on the outside.

Yao Ming's former teammate Kobe Spanoulis in Europe, Papa Lucas, the strongest point guard outside the NBA, Diaman Tidis, the European basketball player, and Fortis, a first-class European striker and guard, are all excellent perimeter players.

As for the little shark Sxenitis, it is actually quite ordinary.

It is difficult for China to play against players with strong outside lines. This Chinese team is not balanced inside and outside.

Greece obviously also has research on the Chinese team, and they pressed the whole court when they came up.

Spanoulis, who couldn't adapt to the NBA, was as sharp as the real Kobe in front of the Chinese team.

It is also difficult for Yi Jian to directly help with the team's backcourt problems.

Less than halftime, the Chinese team fell behind by 7 points.

The team requested a timeout and made adjustments to tactics.

Because Yi Jian's ball-handling skills have improved, the Chinese team has also practiced his tactics of cooperating with defenders to break the press before, but they have not used it a few times, so I don't know the specific situation.

Now the Greek team is aggressive, and the Chinese team must make changes.

The defenders smoothly advance the ball to the frontcourt, so they have a better chance to take advantage of the inside.

"There is still an effect after the timeout. There is actually no need for the Chinese team to panic. In the case of the group qualifying ahead of schedule, the players can feel at ease and perform at their level."

"After Yi Jian responded, he helped the Chinese team pass the half court quickly. The ability of the Chinese team to break the press is indeed better than before."

After returning from the timeout, the Chinese team's offense got better, but they still played awkwardly.

The Greek team's defensive rotation is very fast, and it is difficult for the Chinese team to pass the ball inside.

The help defense and running between their outside players is really good.

Yi Jian was a little envious, it would be great if the national team could do this.

But in fact, the Greek team also has weak links.

Both offensive and defensive ends are the same. They are a good team with outside breakthroughs, three-pointers, and excellent defense, but if other teams have stronger perimeters, they will be affected.

Or the inside line that can be attacked by the outside line can also solve them.

Yi Jian, a team-based team, has also experienced a lot in the NBA. The problem now is that the Chinese team's lineup itself is flawed, and Yi Jian has to take more responsibilities.

The coaching staff of the national team also saw a problem after the first quarter. Greece’s defensive style is not very friendly to Yao Ming. Yao Ming is not afraid if he can catch the ball, but it is difficult to catch it now. The result is that Yao Ming can’t keep up with the rhythm and cannot show his strength. .

This is like a confrontation between a small lineup and a big lineup, and the stronger one will have the advantage.

The Greek team is not a small lineup, but their style of play is a bit similar.

Therefore, starting from Yao Ming's rest during the rotation period, the Chinese team also tried to play fast.

For running and fighting, Yi Jian is more suitable, as is the case with supersonic speed.

Don't wait for teammates to get in position, Yi Jian takes off the rebound and drives the ball directly.

When the Greek team's defense came up, he would hand in hand with his teammates. As long as the Greek team's defensive position was not settled and came to the frontcourt, he would directly break through with the ball.

Going in is a dunk, and no one can stop it.

The Chinese team didn't play like this before. First, they matched Yao Ming's rhythm. More importantly, they didn't have such a powerful finisher like Yi Jian.

Without Yi Jian, the speeding up of the Chinese team will only increase more mistakes.

Now, Yi Jian played more efficiently, and Wang Shipeng, who was on the bench, also played for the first time.

Wang Qi was originally the type to disrupt battles, a typical sixth-man nerve knife.

It's just that the national team in his position is not very strong at this stage, so he was basically a starter before.

In fact, his and Yao Ming's styles don't match. The national team is a combination of the strongest players, so it's normal for them to have mismatched styles of play.

In this game, the Chinese team played another style, which was also a surprise.

With no problem in qualifying, they can let Yao Ming rest more and prepare for the knockout stage.

And this time, while they are exploring more possibilities for the national team, they can also look forward to it.
