I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 585: The new American team and the undercurrent

The latest website: China and Spain played very easily in the final match of the group stage. Spain basically did not have any resistance. It should be said that Spain has given up this game.

Because before China and Spain, Spain lost to the US team 82 to 119 in their last game. After this game, it can basically be said that Spain must be third in the group.

Because according to the ranking rules of the Olympic group stage, even if Spain beats the Chinese team, if it cannot win the Chinese team by more than 50 points, it will be of no use.

Spain lost too much in this game against the US team, which really made Gasol angry.

Everyone knows that Gasol is actually a very gentle player, but after the last game against the US team, Gasol was still angry.

However, there is no other way. Spain’s game against the United States is really miserable. In this game, Spain was stunned by the American team. It couldn’t even find the basket. There were 28 turnovers in the game. With 16 steals for the United States, who can tell that this is the strongest FIBA ​​team in the past few years besides the Chinese team?

Originally, the Gasol brothers were an advantage for the American team, but in this game the two did not have the opportunity to give play to their advantages.

It is indeed difficult for insiders who lack outside support.

Without Chen Xiao, Dayao would be very painful, how can he be so happy now.

Of course, the US team played so hard against Spain in this game. In addition to the fact that Spanish players have underestimated their opponents, they have always been able to win the US team in the past few years. The US team is indeed desperate for this game.

Because the US team wants to take control of his own destiny, he doesn't want the last round of the group stage to be jointly done by the Chinese team and Spain, and then fall to the third place in the group.

According to the Olympic promotion rules, if the US team is third in the group, then the semi-final will have to play the Chinese team again in advance. This is definitely not good news for the US team.

The U.S. team is not afraid of the Chinese team. Rather, the U.S. team now takes time to run-in. If you can play the Chinese team one game late, you should play one game as late as possible. The later you play the Chinese team, the better it will be for the U.S. team.

In this case, the US team wants to hold onto its own destiny not to be done by the Chinese team and Spain. They can only beat Spain a little bit fiercely.

I have to say that Spain does not have a super giant like Chen Xiao on the outside. Faced with the group of outside superstars and super giants of the US team, they are indeed very passive.

In this case, Spain certainly cannot go all out for this game between Spain and China.

Since it is not necessary, keep your physical strength to play the knockout rounds.

After all, the third opponent in the group is the opponent's second in the group Argentina, and Argentina is also a strong player.

Argentina played in the quarterfinals, which is also a tough battle for Spain.

Of course, the same is true for Argentina.

In short, after the final match of the group stage with their own minds, the match of the top eight men's basketball teams in the Olympics has also come out.

In the two quarter-finals in the upper half, Lithuania ranked first in Group A and Greece ranked fourth in Group B, while the United States ranked second in Group B and Croatia played third in Group A.

In the two quarter-finals in the second half, the Chinese team ranked first in Group B and Australia ranked fourth in Group A, while Argentina ranked second in Group A and Spain ranked third in Group B.

Therefore, for Spain's surrender in the group stage, the Chinese players have no regrets.

In this Olympics, the Chinese men's basketball team is pursuing, hoping to defeat the strongest opponent with absolute strength in every game.

Spain is one of the strongest opponents in the eyes of the Chinese team.

The unfinished career of the group stage can be played back in the semi-finals.

It is not that Chen Xiao belittles Argentina led by his good friend Ginobili. For now, Spain is indeed better than Argentina.

It is a shame for Spain to play the United States. This is true, but Spain in this game is not Spain's real strength.

The past victories blinded the eyes of many Spanish players and made them lose their vigilance. Spain, which is now in desperate situation, will definitely not happen again.

However, to make Spain careless, of course, it cannot be said that these veterans of the Spanish battlefield are really floating, but a large part of the reason is indeed the rapid growth of the strength of the US team.

In the last match of the group stage, the US team played against the German team led by Nolan King, and finally won 115-57 by 58 points. Historically, the US team ‘only’ won 49 points in this match.

Obviously, the US team can not only win Germany 58 in this game, they can win more, but because of Xiao Pao's own evil taste, the US team's second team with Xiao Pao only won the driver's Germany 58 points.

Putting the humiliation of such a strong FIBA ​​team together with the 30-point victory over Spain, the American team does have a feeling of taking off.

Or that they have already taken off.

Therefore, after the game against the German team, one of the leaders of the American team, Xiao Zhan, said: "The defeat against China made us as a whole. Now we are better than those who played the Chinese team ten days ago. 50 times!"

"We now know how to play a FIBA ​​game. We cannot relax or be arrogant. We must strive to do our best in every game. We don't want to retreat. We want to keep going. We know that the Chinese team is our last challenge, and we are full of confidence at this time!"

In fact, the changes of the US team after losing to the Chinese team are not only felt by the US players themselves, but also by the media next to them.

So after the end of the group stage and before the start of the knockout rounds, the world’s three major societies all noticed signs of the re-emergence of the US team.

Agence France-Presse started with the U.S. team making Spain and Germany vulnerable, and analyzed the changes in the U.S. team’s current tactics. The U.S. team defeated Spain and Germany with their strong defense and efficient counterattack. They used it once. The second fast break dunks and high-quality outside shots put the game out of suspense before halftime.

In front of such a powerful American team, the previously unstoppable Chinese team looked a little dwarfed.

It has to be said that the US team's current play is indeed strong. In football terms, it is all offense and defense. Regardless of whether it is effective or not, the opponents are all pressed on the court, from start to finish.

This style of play is simply desperate. If you don't have excellent ball-handling ability and physical strength, facing such a style of play, you will be absolutely helpless.

Reuters and AFP also focused on the changes in the US team’s current tactics. However, in addition, Reuters also highlighted Anthony. In the previous game, the US team made 19 of 65 three-pointers. Ranked first among all Olympic teams, but in the first half of the game against Spain, 7 of 11 three-pointers, especially Anthony, 6 of 8 three-pointers, this performance makes people have unlimited reverie.

If Anthony can have such a performance against the Chinese team, the Chinese team’s defensive advantage will not be so great, and the US team’s offense will not be so difficult, plus the physical strength and personnel of the US team. The advantage of the Chinese team is difficult to compete with the American team.

Therefore, Reuters said that the US team now has its own new weapons.

The Associated Press must be even more arrogant at this time. After the US team swept the two major teams in Spain and Germany one after another, the title of the Associated Press is: The American Dream Team 8 is back to the pinnacle of world basketball!

In the report, the Associated Press can be said to be full of praise for Coach K's changes after losing to the Chinese team. Howard was reused on both offensive and defensive ends, and Howard was the fulcrum of the team's speed and defense. The shots of Anthony and other outside players were also inspired, and the US team, under the leadership of Coach K, presented a completely new state.

At the same time, the Associated Press praised Coach K's master and boldness, but also did not forget to ridicule the Spurs coach Popovich for not daring to use Howard like this, without the courage and courage to use Howard well.

To be fair, after the US team finished playing the Chinese team, Howard was the core of the positional battle, surrounded by Anthony, James, Kobe, and Ron Howard's one-star gameplay, which is indeed quite useful.

It's not that this one-star shooting is really so amazing and useful, but like James said, the US team is no longer scattered and fighting each other. At least, the US team has a tactical system.

The US team also tried to build its own tactical system before, such as James' sudden points system, but when Xiao Zhan arrived in the international arena, he was not so sudden, and it was full of people.

Another example is Kebo’s triangle offensive singles system, but similarly, Fiba has a small field and three-point line. Compared with the NBA, the area in the three-point line is overcrowded. It’s not an exaggeration to describe the area as overcrowded. Defensive height, so his efficiency in mid-to-close singles is not very advantageous, at least it cannot be a regular tactic.

After failing to build a tactical system centered on the two team bosses of Science and Technology and Xiaozhan, the US team did not know how to fight, and the messy American team encountered the humiliation of the Australian and Chinese teams. Howard's "one star and four shots" The tactical system has become a life-saving straw for Coach K.

And after using it, the effect is really good. Howard does not have the inside singles ability of the FIBA ​​arena, but he can stir up, stir up people inside, and create opportunities for stars outside.

Although there are many big centers in the international arena, there are no people who can hold Howard one-on-one and prevent him from disturbing him. At the very least, neither Gasol nor the German team's Okur.

An excellent one-star four-shooting tactic, as a star player can only be mixed, this is a failure.

But it doesn't matter. The headquarter's Hong Kong dollar position and everyone just get the ball. They are strong.

At least, there is a backbone, and the battle of positions knows how to fight, and there is no chaos.

With the strength of this American team, they are invincible in fast attack and invincible on single defense. They also have routines for the positional warfare with the biggest weakness. Such a team is indeed not comparable to other teams.

And this is also the reason why Spain was shaken. Who would have thought that the US team would have tactics in positional warfare.

In short, the US team now looks good.

Just, is it really like this?

Certainly not all.

At least, Howard, who has become the core of the team's positional tactics, makes many people uncomfortable.

This kid doesn't know how to be a human being. There are a bunch of big brothers on the team. After he took the position, he went to the show like O'Neal back then in front of the media. In Howard's body, wherever the boss of Ke looked was the shadow of the former O'Neal.

Good guy, I was a supporting role for O'Fang in the Lakers.

You are already so strong now, in the national team, you still play a supporting role for the'two fat'?

Howard is in a bad mood in the NBA, you are in a good mood this season as someone in our department?

The first person a short distance away was lost in this way, the boss of Ke was not so in a good mood, and the big kill expected by the boss of Ke at the Olympic Games did not appear.

Three-point instability is really difficult to kill in the Fiba arena.

The sentiment of Ke boss was also felt by former NBA player, and the first NBA player to admit that he is'Guy', John Amic.

According to John Amic, as the chief consultant of the BBC, when he went to interview the US team, many players took precautions against him during his interview. They did not want to talk to the former NBA player, or even simply. Stay away. Amici said that he understands that he doesn't care about these strange eyes either.

Only when interviewing Kobe, he was very injured.

Amici said that when he tried to interview Kobe, the scene immediately became "tensed".

"I walked to Kobe, and he was shocked when he saw me. I wanted to give him a hug, but he pushed me away, seeing my eyes as if killing me, you know, that kind of The black Mamba stared at the prey, I felt that Kobe wanted me to disappear, not from the US team's station, but from the world. At that moment, I was really hurt."

If you don't say it is a poet, this speech is really quite literary.

While the player and poet was injured, he also praised Howard.

"Dwight was the only player who opened his arms to me. He didn't treat me as a mobile AIDS."

Good guy, after the BBC's chief interview consultant said this, Coach K will kill.

The team recently had some uncontrollable anger after he forced Howard as the center of the attack. Isn't this guy here to make trouble?

Even many staff members of the US team stated in conspiracy theories that the British BBC was deliberately disgusting.

It’s not once or twice that the people of rot have done this, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com British "Nature" blacks the United States, and the United States "Science" blacks the United Kingdom, but the classics are classics.

The relationship between the conjugated father and son is so complicated, and you will never let it go when you can disgust you.

Your BBC is also a big media. Why can't you find any reporters? You have to find a ‘Guy’ or a Gay poet to interview us? Disgusting us?

You said it wasn't on purpose, who would believe it?

Well, the BBC has done this in history, but it numbs the head of Ke's scalp and makes him feel uncomfortable.

In short, after the end of the Olympic men's basketball group stage, because of the fierce competition between China and the United States, many interesting things have happened to the Olympic men's basketball team.

And because Chen Xiao and the Chinese team are fighting on the mainland, it is of course impossible for them to be interfered in this way.

Even if the Korean old iron and the Japanese old iron want disgusting people, they dare not.
