"Please pay attention, the World Youth Championships will start in half a month!" Coach Fu looked upright, and tapped the tactical board with his hand and said: "You have indeed achieved a little bit of success in the past, but this does not mean that you will be able to qualify from the group smoothly in the future!" ”

Shen Hao was much gentler, and he smiled: "Dominating Asia is not the goal of Chinese basketball, what awaits you in the future is the World Youth Championships, a higher stage!" ”

"Director Li's goal for us is to qualify from the group, I don't know if you have any thoughts on this?" Coach Ann said happily. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Dad, how many teams are there in the competition, and how many teams can qualify?" Ikebana asked a very basic question.

Fu Chen picked up the information and read it: "A total of 16 teams participated, and all of them have been determined. They are: China in Asia; Nigeria and Tunisia in Africa; the United States and Canada in North America; Brazil and Argentina in South America; Australia in Oceania; Serbia, Germany, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, Spain, Turkey and Italy in Europe. ”

"Why are there so many teams from Europe?" Hanamichi asked again.

"Stupid, because the level of basketball in Europe is very high." Mu Gangxian explained.

"And where is this contest taking place?" Utu is also an idiot of sports information, and asks such mentally retarded questions.

Except for Ikebana, everyone looked at Utu with strange eyes. Coach Fu coughed and said, "Shenyang, Chongyin Gymnasium." ”

"Haha, our blessed land!" Ikebana laughed shamelessly.

"Damn, I can't refute him." Cheng Liangtian and the others looked at his arrogant appearance, and they were so angry that they looked aggrieved. Who won the championship?

"Coach, let's talk about the schedule." The gentry didn't want to continue to see the smug look of Ikebana, so he quickly diverted the topic.

"The tournament was an opening live draw, with 16 teams divided into four brackets and divided into four groups of ABCD. Each group will play against each other in a round-robin, and the top two will advance to the quarterfinals. Shen Hao explained it very clearly, and the rules were very simple and clear.

"So what grade are we up against? 1st or 2nd gear? Hanamichi asked happily.

"Third gear!" Coach An's tone was kind, but the content was cold like a slap in the face of Hanamichi.

"Dad, don't be kidding, how can we be a third-gear team if we are so strong?" Ikebana also asked happily.

"Nobody is joking, ikebana." Shen Hao also said seriously: "We are a third-tier team. ”

"How so?" Ikebana was shocked. Several other players also looked surprised.

"After all, our national team has been weak for many years and is not ranked high in FIBA. It is precisely because of the overall weakness of Asia that the first continent has only won one qualifying place! Fu Chen explained.

"So what exactly is the grade?" He Yashi asked.

"Hehe, your shrewd Coach Fu has long been ready!" Fu Chen took out a large piece of paper and pasted it on the blackboard. Everyone looked at it intently, and it was clear at a glance.

Tier 1: United States, Argentina, Serbia, Russia;

Second gear: Spain, Italy, Brazil, France;

Three gears: China, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia;

Tier 4: Turkey, Canada, Nigeria, Tunisia.

"There's something wrong with this ranking." Fu Chen said loudly, attracting the attention of the players.

"What's the problem, Coach Fu?" Zebei was also curious.

"This ranking is largely based on the FIBA rankings of the national team, but the problem is that the strength of the national team and the national youth team is not proportional." Fu Chen explained: "For example, the Argentine team is ranked second in the FIBA rankings, but their national youth team is said to be mediocre. If we can draw a team with him, it can be said that we will be on the lottery. ”

"On the contrary, the German team is very strong this year, but because the FIBA ranking is not high, it is classified as the same team as us." Shen Hao smiled: "This is good news, at least we won't draw them in the first round." ”

Jing Shoushan scratched his head and said: "In other words, if a second-tier team is unlucky and draws to the same group as the United States and Germany, it will be very difficult to qualify." ”

"That's right!" Shen Hao nodded. He has been taking Jing Shoushan for three years, and this disciple has a strong comprehension, which always makes him very satisfied.

"So coach, which of these teams in the first, second and fourth gears do you think deserve our attention?" He Jinan asked questions.

Fu Chen immediately introduced: "The strength of the first-tier team will not be too bad, among which it is undoubtedly the strongest in the United States, followed by Serbia; The teams in Pot 2 are about the same strength, and I think Spain and Italy are slightly better; Of the three pots, only Germany is worth watching, but fortunately we couldn't touch them in the group stage; There's not much to say about the fourth-tier team. ”

"If you can't even win in the fourth gear, what else can you talk about qualifying?" Liang Kuan grinned.

"That's right!" Fu Chen stretched out his thumb.

"In my opinion, it's the same except for the U.S. team." Liu Chuan said coldly: "Sweep them all!" ”

"Hehehe, it's good to have fighting spirit, classmate Liu Chuan." Coach An reminded: "But you can't underestimate the enemy." In this competition, in addition to the American Miracle Generation, there are also several super geniuses with the field of miracles. ”

"Miracle Realm?" Liu Chuan's face changed. When encountering an opponent of this level, even he didn't dare to be careless.

"What are the opponents of this level?" Zebei's eyes also lit up, and he longed for a battle with a strong enemy.

"At least the little German kings and the Serbian white magicians are known." Fu Chen said: "But each team is likely to have hidden hole cards, and they don't know where their true strength is!" ”

"It's so much fun!" Hanamichi's eyes turned red, and it seemed to be burning.

At the same time, the world's powerful are also actively preparing for the war.

Far away in the northeast of Europe, two giants are going head-to-head in the stadium, and one of them is beaten to the ground.

"No fight, no fight." He gasped and said, "No matter how hard I try, I'm no match for you, Carré. ”

The other snorted coldly and said, "Akhmetov, I hope that the opponents at the World Youth Championships will not be as useless as you." ”

In central Europe, Germany lost to Serbia by five points.

The two white players shook hands and said goodbye.

"You're such a good opponent and I hope to play again at the World Junior Championships!" The blond-haired hook-nosed German player waved his hand and said goodbye.

"I didn't expect that there would be someone other than me who is qualified to challenge for the American throne, it's so interesting." The black-haired Serbian player smiled in surprise as he looked at the opponent's back.
