Legend of Tomorrow

In the second half, the Greek team, which struggled on the defensive end, lost its offensive rhythm and the point difference widened.

Neither of Greece's two meat-shield centers can play. Once they play, there are defensive holes. This is why they cannot play in the NBA. The pick-and-roll is too slow to keep up with the rhythm in the NBA.

When Guo Xu saw the big center, he made a move. He first passed the ball to James, and then ran to catch the ball without the ball. When he ran like this, except for two fast people to double-team him without the ball, no other method could restrict him. play.

Greece's three defenders were all badly beaten, especially Papalukas, who is known as the strongest point guard outside the NBA.

His passing awareness is indeed very good, but other abilities are relatively average. Some people say that he almost beat Paul to tears in the 2006 World Championships, but Paul was only a second-year rookie at that time, and Papalukas was 29 years old.

Moreover, Papalukas only scored 10 points and 9 assists in the win against the United States. How could this possibly make Paul cry? Those gangsters have no idea how strong Paul is, because no one has watched the 2009 Hornets playoffs in Guo Xu's previous life!

Today, the 31-year-old Papalukas, who is two meters tall, was beaten to tears by Guo Xu. He only defended a few rounds in the second half. Guo Xu scored 9 points in a row. Mizongbu left him helpless. He had to be quick to commit fouls. Can't hold people back when counterattacking.

The other two guards were also convinced. To guard him from beyond the three-point line, they had to double-team, even as soon as half-court was over, because his teammates inside would also cover him, and he could rush forward if he was a little slower.

Greek players have never played this kind of game before. The focus of defense is concentrated on one person. The whole court is chasing and intercepting him, which can only make it difficult for him to take action and score less points. Once the ball is distributed, other members of the American team can also score.

Octopus Diamantitis was so depressed after being beaten by Guo Xu that he still had to be the main defender because he had the strongest defensive ability. Papalukas' position has become very awkward. He can't guard Guo Xu at the 1st position, and Wade can't be guarded at the 2nd position. Reed doesn't hold the ball to attack, but he can still shoot when he is free.

There is a legend in Europe that after the 2006 World Championships, a large number of invitations from NBA teams poured in, but Papalukas remained unmoved and did not want to play in the NBA. In the past two years, many people used this joke to explain that the overall strength of the UEFA Champions League is not inferior to that of the NBA.

In fact, Papalukas knows his own tradeoffs. He was almost 30 years old when he finished the World Championships. His movement speed can be used in slow-paced Europe. In the NBA, his footsteps are not as good as Spain's Calderon. He can guard who? Of course he wouldn't be moved if the NBA team offered him a basic salary. He wouldn't make more money than staying in Europe, and he might be embarrassed if he went there, which would lead to a decline in popularity.

In the last quarter, Guo Xu continued to play without rest. If he said he would play the whole game, he would play the whole game.

Spanoulis defended very cleanly;

The coach won't let him face Guo Xu. There was no way, Spann knew what would happen to Vujacic who fouled Guo Xu in the NBA, so he just got out and didn't dare to stay in the United States. No matter how far behind he is, Spann doesn't dare to be cruel to Guo Xu. He wants to renew his contract with a high salary after his contract expires next year.

As a result, the heavy responsibility of defending Guo Xu could only be placed on Octopus. He finally couldn't bear it anymore in the last quarter. After Guo Xu changed direction and broke through, he came up with a chokehold from behind, and the referee punished him. went out and awarded Team USA two free throws.

The fans in the audience booed. The names of the Greeks were very long and difficult to remember, but after this game, many fans will remember Diamantidis.

It's a pity that this is a bad reputation. His road to the NBA has been blocked in this life. Which team dares to want him? It's a small thing to be booed by the fans when he comes out. The key is that this person is already on the president's blacklist.

Guo Xu fell but was not injured. After getting up, he went to the free throw line and made two free throws. The Greek team called a timeout.

Although Guo Xu is fine, at this moment, many people in the 6 billion pot secrets are still cursing the bankruptcy of the Greek country...

During the pause, the CCTV5 commentator was concerned about another thing. A huge butterfly effect appeared.

Yu Jia said: Diamantidis will definitely be suspended this time, but I don't know how many games he will be suspended. If he is suspended for more than two games, the Chinese team will be out of luck. He will not be able to play when the two teams meet.

Zhang Lili said: I think both games were short. This was a flagrant foul against a superstar, and fans from many countries around the world were watching the game. The impact was very bad.

Yu Jia smiled and said: Guo Xu helped the Chinese team this time. As long as we beat Germany and Greece next, we will create the best record in history.

It was unintentional. After hearing the explanation, many Chinese fans felt that Guo Xu was destined to China and was really a blessing to China.

What kind of spirit is this? This is the spirit of internationalism! It’s the spirit of communism! Every member of the public must learn this spirit!

Guo Xu would not take a break unless he was injured, and continued to play until the end.

At the end of the game, 151-63, the Dream Team beat Greece by 88 points, avenging their elimination from the World Championships.

In the 2003 Olympic Qualifying Tournament, the United States defeated the Virgin Islands 113-55, a margin of victory of 58 points. After that, the U.S. men's basketball team never had a record of beating its opponents. Nowadays, this Dream Eight team has super offensive power, is far more popular than before, and is deeply loved by fans.

Guo Xu played 40 minutes and scored 56 points, 21 assists and 4 steals. At the same time, he broke the Olympic single-game personal scoring record and assist record. He was the first player in Olympic history to assist more than 20 times.

International basketball rules not only allow zone defense, but there is no three-second defensive violation, so it is difficult for players to assist.

Guo Xu broke this law, because he did not dare to play as a human shield center in Greece, and the highly mobile inside line had to help double-team Guo Xu. Greece's defense in the penalty area inevitably deteriorated. Guo Xu attracted a double team to score a goal, and his teammates immediately attacked the basket. This way the hit rate was high and it was easy to generate assists.

Wade made 10 of 12 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 23 points; James made 8 of 10 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws, scoring 20 points; Reid also scored 15 points.

When the final whistle sounded, Guo Xu walked to the court and waved to the fans around him, enjoying the applause of the audience. The fans began to shout his name together again.

Guo Xu's popularity is so high that even Yao Ming is a little jealous. Yao Ming, who just won the championship in the NBA and won two MVPs, played at home and no fans shouted his name.

The Greek players left the field in despair, unwilling to stay for a moment longer. One young player really cried after returning to the locker room...

When Zhang Lili commented on the game, he lamented: Guo Xu's coming to play in international competitions is equivalent to the United States locking up a gold medal. It's so easy for them to win. His teammates don't need to perform much. He said the record was broken.

Yu Jia nodded: And he informed his opponent in advance that many records would be broken once he did so.

The statistics after the game were surprising. The American team broke 7 Olympic records in one battle.

In addition to Guo Xu's personal single-game scoring and assist records, there are also 26 team three-point records; 31 full-field three-point records; the team's single-game scoring record; the team's half-time scoring record; and the single-quarter scoring record 49 points; the US team's overall shooting percentage today reached 71.1%, which is also the highest record in the Olympics.

There is another statistic that, although not a new record, is still worth mentioning, that is, the score difference between the two teams today is as high as 88 points, ranking third in the historical score difference rankings.

In fact, they are number one. The largest single-game score difference in the history of the Olympic Games was 100 points. There were two times in total, both of which occurred in 1948. They were created by the Chinese team and the South Korean team respectively, and their opponents were both the Iraqi team.

Obviously, the gold content is extremely low, because the opponent is vulnerable...
