In the afternoon, the Los Angeles Arena was full, and nearly half of the Chinese audience came to support the national youth team.

If this game is won, it will be a witness to history, and the fans want to experience this moment for themselves, even if they lose, to cheer for the team in their home country.

Because of the importance of this game, there are also TV broadcasts of this game in China, and there are commentators who are dedicated to commenting on it.

Although it was the second half of the night on the other side of the ocean, the fans were still in front of the TV, excitedly looking forward to the start of the game, of course, for Zhang Yufeng's friends and classmates, there was no such blessing, because it was not Sunday, so everyone couldn't go home and couldn't see the live TV, so they could only continue to watch the live broadcast on their mobile phones.

Half an hour before the start of the game, the two teams warmed up on the court.

Whenever Zhang Yufeng got the ball, the Chinese fans in the audience would burst into enthusiastic cheers, which made his teammates envious. It can be said that Zhang Yufeng's name is well-known in the entire circle of Chinese fans, and even his popularity in China, after all, these Chinese fans have witnessed his magic with their own eyes, and the domestic ones are just watching the news, but now with live TV, domestic fans can also see the performance of the national youth team in the game.

The enthusiastic cheers of the fans made the players of the German team very unhappy, and there was a trace of anger in their eyes when they looked at Zhang Yufeng, they thought that Zhang Yufeng had stolen their light on the court, and the applause after the hard dunk was not as much as his one-time shot, which made people resentful.

The atmosphere on the pitch became delicate, and the players of the national youth team also felt the unkind eyes of the German team players, and they all underestimated that they didn't know what nerves these foreigners were pumping, and the game had not yet started to be emotional.

Ten minutes before the start of the game, the atmosphere in the arena has reached a climax, driven by commentary and live music, and the fans are shouting and waiting for the game to start.

The final deployment of the coaches of both sides, there is good news for the national youth team in this game, that is, Chen Tianyu, who missed the group stage because of injury, came back in this game, as the team's second scorer, his comeback will bring stronger firepower to the team's offense, and also give Yang Juncheng more tactical collocation and personnel rotation, etc., but now facing a problem, after Chen Tianyu was injured, Ren Qinwei replaced him as the starter, and now Ren Qinwei performed very well in the starting lineup, and Ji Fan, Zhang Yufeng and others also have very good chemistry, and if Chen Tianyu is directly allowed to continue to play as a starter, it may affect the team's chemistry.

Although Yang Juncheng had never mentioned this matter, everyone knew very well in their hearts, knowing that now was the time to know the answer, so they were all watching him, not knowing what kind of arrangements she would have.

Yang Juncheng's face was calm, he didn't pay attention to their eyes, and said to himself: "Our offense still has to be fast, don't compete with the German team, and force them to keep running, so that we can win by skill, if we go to physical confrontation with them, then we don't have a chance to win this game, do you understand?" ”

"Understood." Everyone nodded in response.

Playing positional battles for physical confrontation has never been the strength of the Chinese team, especially against a traditional European team like Germany, which is at an absolute disadvantage, which the players are also very aware of.

"Good!" Yang Juncheng said, "I announce the starters, center Yang Jie, power forward Chen Tianyu, small forward Ren Qinwei, scoring guard Zhang Yufeng, and point guard Ji Fan. ”

When everyone heard this, they were directly blindfolded in place, staring at Yang Juncheng, mistakenly thinking that he was wrong.

Seinfeld was knocked out of the starting lineup, and his mood was even more lost, he looked at Yang Juncheng puzzled, and asked, "Coach, why did you replace me?" ”

"yes, coach, why did you replace Seinfeld as a starter? In this way, our inside line has no height, only Yang Jie is left, can he completely protect the basket? Everyone also didn't understand and asked questions.

"Naturally, I have a reason to change Seinfeld." Yang Juncheng said dissatisfied, "The core of our tactics in this game is to play fast, Seinfeld will improve our frame protection ability and interior defense on the field, but the speed will be reduced, which will affect the team's offensive conversion, so I will replace him as a starter, and then Chen Tianyu will go up, with the tandem of Ren Qinwei and Ji Fan, plus the projection ability of Zhang Yufeng and Chen Tianyu, the chance of winning this game will be greater." ”

Everyone was enlightened, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Yang Juncheng.

"I see, coach, I respect your decision and I will do my best to help the team, whether I am a substitute or a starter." Seinfeld said, the tone is very sincere, they are all playing for the country, it is the same in any position, as long as they win.

Yang Juncheng nodded and continued: "The defense we take is joint defense plus substitution marking, their ace player is No. 12 power forward Butterton, 210cm tall, excellent projection ability, versatile all-round offensive ability, tough defense, known as Germany's next Nowitzki, now that Seinfeld is not on the field, we have no height advantage, so when we face Butterton again, we will carry out a pinch defense, don't give him a chance to play one." ”

"Understood!" Everyone nodded solemnly, they had seen the video of the German team before, and they all knew that this Butterton had super offensive ability, and he really had a bit of Nowitzki's shadow, which made people have to pay attention to it.

"Good! Play your offense for me when you get on the field! Yang Juncheng said loudly, the coach's momentum and majesty have increased sharply, so that the players are all inspired.

The five players walked up to the court, stood in position, and Yang Jie and the opposing center were ready to jump the ball.

The center forward is white, with a tall body and a slightly chubby figure, there is a deterrent effect when he looks at it, and Yang Jie, who is more than 210 tall, is one size smaller when he stands opposite him.

"I'll make you understand the difference in strength!" The big white center said arrogantly, his face full of contempt.

"Humph! Talk! Yang Jie dismissed, after the baptism of the group stage, he himself has grown a lot, not only in terms of skills and awareness, but also in terms of mental maturity.

"Toot!" The referee blew the whistle and both sides jumped the ball!!

Although the center of the German team is taller and stronger than Yang Jie, he is not as flexible as Yang Jie, and the bounce power is far inferior.

The national youth team started the first attack!
