Chapter 99
Leaving Hui Ruoqi's side, Wu Di was very glad that he had upgraded Zhang Song's photographic memory, and it didn't take much trouble to remember the mailbox.

After the opening ceremony, the men's basketball group stage will begin.During the Olympic Games, the national team implemented comprehensive control, and Wu Di had no choice but to withdraw his heart.

The 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball team has long been determined. Dayao, David, Ah Lian, Wu Di, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, Li Nan, Sun Yue, Du Feng, and Wang Lei.

Center Dayao, roughly.

Forwards Ah Lian, Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan, Du Feng, Wang Lei.

Defenders Wu Di, Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Chen Jianghua, Wang Shipeng.

The Chinese team is divided into Group B, and the remaining teams are the United States, Spain, Angola, Germany, and Greece. Group A members are Lithuania, Russia, Iran, Croatia, Argentina, Australia.

Being in a group with the United States made the Chinese team feel bad.Although the U.S. group has four promotion places, the higher the ranking, the weaker the opponents in the quarter-finals, so the weaker the opponents in the group stage, the better.

But in the case of Group B, the US team basically can't beat it.And there is also a strong team Spain, and it is very difficult to rank second.

And the most important thing is that the Chinese team met the US team in the first game, and they didn't know how the International Olympic Committee arranged the schedule, so they directly got rid of the Chinese team.

Wu Di looked at the schedule and couldn't help but speculate on the IOC with deep malice.

The lineup of the US team this year is much stronger than in 04, Kobe, Anthony, Paul, James, Bosh, Howard, Kidd, Wade, Prince, Reed, Boozer, Deron.

This is almost an all-star lineup, and Wu Di must be a little dizzy.It is very difficult to get a bargain in this lineup. If there is no Waterloo in 04, it may still be possible to beat the US team.

When the game started, Kobe also specifically asked Wu Di to say something.Wu Di pulled Sun Yue over and said a few words to Kobe. However, Sun Yue's English was not very good and he didn't know what to say after a few words.

The game started soon, and Wu Di was standing on the court, ready to return to the backcourt to defend.You must know that it was Howard who jumped the ball with Dayao.

Sure enough, Howard grabbed the ball. After Kobe received the ball, he handed it over to Paul and let Paul organize the offense.

Jonas did not specify too much defensive tactics for the Chinese team, but adopted a zone defense.Dayao and Ah Lian sit on the inside, while Wu Di, Sun Yue and Liu Wei defend on the outside.

Wu Di is defending James, and only Wu Di can defend James in the Chinese team.The two are almost the same type of players, and it is difficult for others to defend.

James looked at Wu Di and started running, trying to get rid of Wu Di's attack.Wu Di didn't follow closely, and let James take a step away to prevent his breakthrough.

James' breakthrough is difficult to prevent, but his shooting is really not very good.If the ball is in his hands, Wu Di will be very happy.

But not only Wu Di knew this, but also the American team. Paul broke through Liu Wei, and Liu Wei tried his best to defend, but Paul paused, shook Liu Wei away, and made a shot from beyond the three-point line.

Turning back, Liu Wei dribbled the ball, and the US team pressed with the whole court.Liu Wei's ball was almost intercepted, Wu Di went thousands of times to catch it, and took the basketball from Liu Wei.

James also came to force Wu Di, but Wu Di raised his arm to prevent James from interfering, blocked James, and came outside the three-point line.

Dayao immediately came over to block Wu Di. Wu Di shook off James and rushed inside.Howard immediately pushed over, and Wu Di tried to break through, but Bosh double-teamed from the side. Wu Di could only pass the ball to the Arab League on the side.

After the ball, Ah Lian wanted to shoot, but he didn't want Bosh to turn around. Ah Lian didn't dare to shoot, so he passed it to Dayao.Dayao catches the ball, jumps immediately, avoids James' interference, and makes a shot.

Wu Di's heart sank, the first attack was so difficult, this game must be mysterious!
Wu Di's guess was right, the US team's offense was extremely smooth.The defense of the Chinese team is too weak against the US team. Wu Di is better and Dayao can withstand it, but the others really cannot defend the US team.

The Chinese team used zone defense, but the US team immediately replaced James and replaced Anthony.After Anthony came up, the US team had three outsiders who could shoot three-pointers, and shooting three-pointers is the way to break the zone defense.

The three-point shooting percentage of NBA superstars is very high, which is also the basis for them to gain a foothold in the NBA.

The U.S. team shot three-pointers, and Wu Di had no choice. He could only defend one person. Kobe and Paul both shot three-pointers, so it was up to Sun Yue and Liu Wei to defend.

Sun Yue's defense is still good, but Liu Wei is not. The gap between him and Paul is too big.

In the end, the Chinese team fell behind by 16 points and lost the game.

The second game of the Chinese team is against Spain.

Spain's leading player is Gasol of the Lakers and Wu Di's teammate next season.And his substitute is his younger brother Marc Gasol, who is also one of the bargaining chips for the Lakers to trade him.

The strength of the Gasol brothers is very strong, and they are much stronger than Dayao and A Lian when they are fully united.But it is a pity that Spain does not have a player like James, and they have nothing to do with Wu Di.

The pick-and-roll between Wu Di and Dayao made the Spanish team very uncomfortable.Wu Di went inside, and the lethality was so great that Gasol and others couldn't defend Wu Di at all.

The Chinese team defeated Spain 92:83.

Then the Chinese team played against Angola. Angola and Germany were both teams from the qualifiers, and they were not strong teams.

These two teams did not pose much threat to the Chinese team, and the Chinese team easily defeated these two teams.

In the last game of the group stage, the Chinese team played against Greece, which has always been a strong team.The star of Greece is Spanlinos, who is known as the European Kobe Bryant.

The two sides played inextricably, but in the second half, the Chinese team suddenly strengthened their defense. Wu Di suddenly broke out and blocked two shots fiercely. The fire-burning ship characteristics seemed to explode, and everyone else's defensive strength was up. .

The Greek team didn't react for a while, and the score was pulled away by the Chinese team, and then they couldn't catch up.

At the end of the group stage, the Chinese team had 4 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in Group B.The United States ranked first in Group B, Spain ranked third in Group B, and Greece ranked fourth in Group B.

In Group A, Lithuania ranked first, Argentina second, Croatia third, and Australia fourth.
