In addition, point guard Kenny Smith and others are strong contenders for the main players on other teams, but in the Houston Rockets, they can only be used as the team's bench players and can only get very little playing time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Fortunately, the Basketball Association of the Federal Republic of Salween has been established, and according to the intention of Long Zheng, preparations for the professional basketball league are being intensified, and the Salween professional basketball league has officially started in the second half of '96. These strong players as substitutes can be loaned to various professional teams in the Salwyn Professional Basketball League to maintain their competitive form.

As the main interior players of two championship-contending teams, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett's rivalry has continued from the NBA court to the current Olympic basketball game, and the relationship between the two is both teammates and rivals.

It is now widely recognized that Tim Duncan's strength is above Kevin Garnett, and winning the NBA Rookie of the Year and helping the team win two championships is the best proof of this.

In order to maintain the unity of the Salwyn men's basketball team, the team's scrum work has been alternating between Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett.

In the first Salween men's basketball game against Brazil, Tim Duncan was in charge of the team's scrum as the starting center, and there is no doubt that Tim Duncan won the scrum for the team.

In the second game of the Salwyn men's basketball team against the Yugoslav men's basketball team, Kevin Garnett participated in the team's scrum work as the starting power forward.

In the third game of the Salwein men's basketball team against the Puerto Rico men's basketball team, Tim Duncan was in charge of the team's scrum as the starting center.

In the fourth game of the Salwyn men's basketball team against the Greek men's basketball team, Kevin Garnett participated in the team's scrum work as the starting power forward, and did not miss, Kevin Garnett ensured that the Salwyn men's basketball team got the ball first and took the lead in attacking.

Now, Game 5, the team's scrum for the ball is back in the hands of starting center Tim Duncan.

The Australian center forward is 212 centimeters tall and weighs 100 kilograms, and judging from the physical fitness on the surface, the Australian center forward is not weaker than Tim Duncan. But the comparison of basketball players' strength is not as simple as comparing height and weight.

With a bounce and explosiveness far superior to the opposing team, Tim Duncan beat the Australian center to win the opening scrum for the Salween men's basketball team.

The basketball, which was snapped back to the halfcourt by Tim Duncan, was grabbed by starting point guard Steve Nash.

Fast break, Steve Nash gets the ball and moves forward quickly.

With the strength of the opposition, Steve Nash managed to contain two opposing players and help his teammates attract the opponent's defensive vitality. Immediately after, starting small forward Paul Pearce, who ran off the ball, was given an open shot.

As the main point guard of the Chicago Bulls, Steve Nash can occupy the main vacant positions of John Paxson, B.J. Armstrong, Jason Williams, and alien Sam Cassel, relying on his amazing passing ability and organizational planning ability.

Receiving Steve Nash's precise pass with great comfort, starting small forward Paul Pearce didn't need to adjust at all, just jumped off the ground and threw the basketball out of his hand from beyond the three-point line.

Hollow into the frame, accustomed to shooting NBA three-point shots, shooting at the three-point line under FIBA rules, starting small forward Paul Pierce shot a terrifying 90% three-point shooting rate.

At 3:0, the Salwyn men's basketball team took the lead and took the lead.

After Salwyn's goal, the Australian men's basketball team followed up with an attack.

The wooden barrel containing water is made of a plurality of wooden planks, the amount of water held in a wooden barrel does not depend on the longest wooden board on the barrel wall, but precisely depends on the shortest wooden board on the barrel wall, the disadvantage determines the advantage, the disadvantage determines life and death, if one of the wooden planks is very short, the water capacity of the barrel is limited, and the short board becomes the "limiting factor" of the water volume of the barrel. The only way to increase the amount of water in this cask is to replace the short board or lengthen it. This law is summarized as the "barrel principle", or "barrel law", also known as the "short board theory". In the defense of basketball games, the "short board theory" is most vividly embodied.

For the Salwyn men's basketball team, the most important opponent in the group stage, the Australian men's basketball team has a lot of research, and they clearly know that starting center Tim Duncan, starting power forward Kevin Garnett, starting small forward Paul Pierce, starting point guard Poun Newin, and starting point guard Steve Nash Among the five, the strength of the starting point guard Poun Newin is too weak. Salwyn's other players were reluctant to spend too much energy to help Ponnewin fill the holes in the defense.

While Ponnewin or other bench players are on the floor, Salwyn's players tend to defend the team by sticking to the interior, guaranteeing rebounds, and letting opponents shoot from beyond the three-point line. Only in this way can the Salwyn men's basketball team minimize the loss of shortcomings in defense.

This has been fully verified in the previous four group games of the Salwyn men's basketball team, and the coaching staff of the Australian men's basketball team knows it. (To be continued.) )
