I’m Really Playing Basketball

Remember [] for a second,!

Once upon a time, the appearance of the US basketball team in the Olympic Games has always been very arrogant and domineering. When the US team came to the Olympic Games, they would never live in the Olympic Village. The players of the Olympiad opened their ranks, as if they were a special existence in the Olympic arena, the biggest star.

But now, because of the success of the Chinese men's basketball team over the years, it has dominated men's basketball from 2004 to the present, so the arrogance of the American men's basketball team has been completely suppressed.

The Chinese team has been ranked No. 1 in the world men's basketball team for nine consecutive years.

And Chen Xiao was the No. 1 star in the NBA for eight consecutive seasons.

After the efforts of the Chinese men's basketball team and Chinese stars such as Chen Xiao and Yao Ming, the current American men's basketball team not only no longer says how it is a dream team, but also does not regard itself as the biggest star and the most special existence.

In this Olympics, the players of the American men's basketball team even lived in the Olympic Village for the first time ever.

However, this is actually understandable. The Chinese men's basketball team is now living in the Olympic Village. Why do you specialize the American men's basketball team?

If they really want to do this, I am afraid not only the media in Europe and the world will laugh at them, but even the media in the United States will laugh at them for playing big names.

It can be said that this American team is really filled with a down-to-earth feeling from top to bottom.

And that's why Chen Xiao and the Chinese men's basketball team are so wary of the American team.

This American team is also the lowest and most modest American team in history.

Therefore, in the Olympic Village, everyone can understand that the Chinese team is modest, because the Chinese team has always been very modest, but now, seeing the US team playing the same modesty as the Chinese team, everyone is still a little uncomfortable.

After the Olympic men's basketball group stage ended, American ESPN expert Kevin Arnovitz wrote an article to select the top ten players who performed best in the men's basketball group stage of the 2012 London Olympics, among them Chen Xiao, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian of the Chinese team and the United States Team Kobe, James, Wade and Durant, as well as Argentina's Manu Ginobili, Australia's Mills, and Spain's Pau Gasol were selected.

To be honest, according to the character of American players in the past, when someone asks them this question and asks who is the best player in the group stage of the American team, they must be rushing to say that he is the leader and that he has performed well.

But see how they answer.

When asked about his being selected as one of the best players in the group stage, Zhan said: "I don't think I'm the best, the best player. A team doesn't need four, just like mvp doesn't. The selection of four is the same. I think that the best team in our team is kd. I told him that if we didn't have him, then we wouldn't be touted by you here to be neck and neck with the Chinese team.

We need an unstoppable super scorer, we have players who can do other things, drive, pass, defend, rebound, we have a lot of them, but we need a guy like kd in any game All ignoring defenders. "

What Xiao Zhan said was not without purpose. The last game of the group match was against Argentina. The U.S. team won by no means so easy. It won by 29 points.

Although Argentina looks a little old this year, Scola and Ginobili are in very good condition, but just when everyone was anxious, Durant ignored the defense's three-pointers and made a single quarter. He scored 17 points and directly destroyed Argentina.

You can't defend at all, so Ginobili reluctantly said after the game: "For KD, Fifa's three-pointer is like a free throw, we will never be able to defend Fifa's game like Chen and KD. monster."

So when asked about the best player of the US team, the captain of the US team also smiled and said: "I said two years ago, we need kd, he is the best player in fiba the US team has ever had. Player, at the World Championships two years ago, I still can't forget the confrontation between him and Chen. If this American team didn't have kd, I would not join. I don't want to lose to Chen in the Olympics again, kd is all we have. It is a source of confidence for people to beat the Chinese team and Chen Xiao."

Listen, in the previous U.S. team, you could hear the Boss and Xiao Zhan complimenting a player like this?

Of course, although Xiao Du is a person with high self-confidence, he is also very humble in the face of the pursuit of the superstars of the US team such as Keli, Xiao Zhan and Wade.

"I'm very happy that my shooting and scoring can help the US team. For me, to be able to play with the Black Mamba, King-James, Wade, Ron and the franchise players of the NBA teams, it will also It gave me endless confidence and benefited me a lot, so I played harder.

So, I don't think I'm the MVP of Team USA, I'm part of the team. "

Looking at this American team, you said, can you not be afraid, not worry?

Therefore, even if the quarter-finals have not yet been played, Chen Xiao and the Chinese team are already preparing to fight the US team in the final.

Of course, although I know in my heart, this year's Olympic men's basketball final will definitely be a showdown between the Chinese team and the US team.

But the game is played one by one, and, in order to save energy, the Chinese team needs to beat the team on the way with the least cost.

The Chinese team is not the same as the American team. Although this Chinese team has a completely different dimension compared to the Chinese team in history, there is no doubt that the American team can still go up and down five times, but the Chinese team cannot. The Chinese team needs to protect their physical fitness in order to be tough on the United States. Otherwise, after playing for 47 minutes and breaking down in the last minute, they will not be able to win.

What's more, this French team is actually not that weak, it should be said that it has the strength to pose a threat to the Chinese team.

The quarter-final match between the Chinese team and the French team was held at the North Greenwich Arena in the UK at 23:15 on August 8, bj time.

The French team fell to the fourth place in Group B, not because the team's strength is not good, but in the group stage, the leader of the French team, Toni Parker, did not play because of a small ankle injury.

Parker did not play, not only did not let the French team collapse after losing Parker as before, but instead made this team play a very strong integrity.

For example, the appearance of Batum has made the French team no longer rely solely on Parker in the offense. They have more scoring points. In addition to Batum, Garabel, Colo and others have also performed well in the group stage. The performance of the French team's perimeter group is now very integrated, and China, although the overall strength is now very strong, but obviously, the perimeter is still the weakness of the Chinese team, China has Chen Xiao, but there is only one Chen Xiao, the big one. Nephew and Andy, Xiaozhu, and Brother Wei are all very good, and even the eldest nephew was picked by the Thunder in this year's NBA draft, so the Chinese team also has 3 NBA players on the outside, but to be honest, whether it's Andy or the eldest nephew , they play fiba are flawed.

They are not as adaptable to fiba's rules as European players, and their shooting stability in fiba games is not as good as that of European players. More importantly, in the knockout rounds, Parker meetings, and full blood.

Against a player with a similar style like Parker, Andy and the eldest nephew are actually under a lot of pressure. They have similar styles, but their strengths are not as good as each other in all aspects. You will be very uncomfortable.

Of course, against the French team, the biggest advantage of the Chinese team is definitely the inside line. Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian's inside line is the existence that even the American team is shivering. Although the French team's Seraphim, Turiaf and Dior are also NBA players, even the best players in the NBA.

But they want to stop Yao Ming and the United Arab, it is still very difficult.

Therefore, facing this France, the Chinese team is not afraid of losing, because the Chinese team knows that it is impossible for them to lose.

What the Chinese team is most afraid of is that after the start of the game, in the face of the frantically shrinking defense of the French team, their own shot cannot be opened, while the French team's shot is shot.

Judging from the group stage of the French team, this team has the strength of three-point explosion. This is the most difficult thing for a team with a small lineup.

At 23:00 on August 8, bj time, at the North Greenwich Arena in the United Kingdom, the players of the Chinese team and the French team are warming up on the court.

In the face of such a big battle, the players of the Chinese team and the French team are quite relaxed. After all, everyone is actually an acquaintance.

For example, Chen Xiao and Dior of France are former teammates.

For example, Piglet and Parker are teammates on the Spurs.

Chen Xiao and Parker have been friends for many years.

Therefore, many Chinese viewers in front of the TV also find it very interesting to see the players of the Chinese team and the French team warming up on TV.

"That's the advantage of having so many NBA players. You can meet friends wherever you go."

"If we don't have NBA players, these big players in the NBA won't even look at you, let alone respect them."

Indeed, the current Chinese men's basketball team can gain full respect and 'full awe! ’.

Well, no jokes, no jokes, these strong teams in Europe now see the Chinese team, and their eyes are really full of awe.

After so many years, I can't beat it, I really can't beat it, and I've been beaten by the Chinese team.

Therefore, Chen Xiao and Yao Ming agreed to retire after 2012. The happiest person was not the Americans. The US team also felt regretful that the strongest opponent was leaving.

The happiest people are actually the Europeans. If the American team has the confidence to push the boss because of Durant's appearance, then for the European team, it really has no confidence to push the boss at all.

This can't be blamed on these European teams. Didn't Kobe say it all before?

If it wasn't for the fact that at the 2010 World Championships in the U.S. team, Durant was born and could split with Chen Xiaobiao, he would not have continued to be abused at the Olympics.

In fact, many superstars of the US team almost lost their confidence in fiba by the combination of Chen Xiao and Yao Ming.

On the court, after the warm-up of the two teams, the starters of the two teams also stood on the court.

The starters of the Chinese team are Yao Ming, Alian, Xiaozhu, Chen Xiao, Andy.

The starters on the French side are Parker, Batum, Garabel, Diaw, Turiaf.

There are 10 starters on the court, 9 NBA players, and they are still well-known ones, not the kind of unknown NBA players.

If France's Celtic center Noah is not absent because of a left ankle injury, the French team can also make an all-NBA lineup.

Even if the only player in the French team who is not in the NBA, Michael Gallabel, is not a mess. In the 2011 European Championship, this powerful outsider averaged 64% three-point shooting. In the 2010 World Championship, his 55% from three-point range.

So before the game started, espn international basketball expert Fran Frazilla said when he predicted: "The French team has a lot of NBA elite players, but apart from Tony Parker, other players may be considered insignificant, not The opponents of the Chinese Dream Team, after all, apart from Parker, compared with Chen, Yao, and Yi, they are not high-level NBA players. Compared with the Chinese Dream Team, the French team is of course a relatively ordinary team. , they play 20 games against the Chinese team and may lose 19 games.

but!

Please respect the French team, don't ignore the French team's ability to play a super good performance to achieve an upset.

They are very dangerous. Even if they are relatively ordinary compared to the Chinese Dream Team, they are still one of the few teams in the world that can beat the Chinese Dream Team and the American Team. One of the great teams. "

I have to say that the prediction of this ESPN international basketball expert is quite accurate.

In this match between the Chinese team and the French team, the French team gave the Chinese team a dismay as soon as they came up.

After Chen Xiao opened with Yan Bi Batum scoring a three-pointer, Diao immediately pulled the three-point line in the same way and hit a three-pointer. Diao has the ability to break through and pass the ball, and the UAE did not dare to follow Too much, otherwise, whether Dior passes the ball to Parker to break through, or Dior himself breaks through, there is a great threat.

Relatively speaking, it is a good choice to let Diao shoot three-pointers.

And Dior, in fiba, has a good three-pointer ability.

In fiba, Parker has a strong three-pointer ability, because Parker's two-pointer from long distance is very powerful in the nba, which is fiba's three-pointer.

France's starting five, everyone can shoot three-pointers.

They are going to explode, and 20 wins against the US or China is no joke.

In the first quarter of this game, the French team's shooting state was really good. In the case of the Chinese team deliberately pressing the rhythm, they scored 22 points in a single quarter, only 4 points behind the Chinese team.

However, it is very difficult for the French team to continue to play this way against the Chinese team. In the first quarter, Diao made a three-pointer shot very accurately, but the UAE just didn't pull it out completely, which made Parker unable to stand out at all.

Unless all players of the French team have three points in this game.

But the probability is 1 in 20, 5%, that's what experts say.

Obviously, this probability is very low.

In fact, the game started with Diaw and Garabel and backup NBA player Pietrus.

And it was reluctantly opened. Diao scored 15 points, Garabel scored 10 points, Pietrus scored 10 points, and Batum and Turiaf and Parker's three-pointers did not open.

Batum was crushed by Chen Xiao, Turiaf was a little soft, and Parker was entangled by Andy because he couldn't break through to the basket. Although he also scored 15 points, his hit rate was average. .

In the end, the Chinese team defeated them 96-69 in the face of France, which could only beat their own team.

It cannot be said that the French team has no chance at all. uukanshu. Instead, com said that in this game, the French team faced the Chinese team, and their chances were only kept for one quarter.

As the second quarter came, they lost the chance to cause trouble for the Chinese team when they didn't shoot so well.

And this is where the Chinese team is strong.

"As long as the Chinese team's basket is Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, as long as they don't come out, whether it's the French team or the American team, when they play against the Chinese team, they can only bet on the outside touch. When your outside players have When a big explosion, Wonder Boy can go outside and lock you up!"

"This is the biggest boss in the world of basketball right now, the super dream team that stole the dream team from the US team, the Chinese men's basketball team!"

Listening to the excited voice of the British commentary on the TV, the American men's basketball players in front of the TV did not have a smile on their faces, some only had silence and 'full awe! ’

Of course, the full awe is exaggerated, and there is still awe.

"The most powerful boss!"

This boss, they haven't won for ten years!
