Chapter 318: Strive for the Final Four

The national team's victory over Spain was a victory that caused a stir at home. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Compared with the glory of the "small ball", the situation of the "big ball" in China has always been very embarrassing, but the "big ball" is more ornamental than the "small ball"!

Since Yao Ming entered the NBA, this beloved sport has directly become one of the most concerned sports in China.

Although China has been boasting that it has crossed this goal and improved that ranking, in fact, domestic basketball has not improved too significantly in the international arena.

But this time is different, as the champion of the last World Championships, the Spanish team is recognized as one of the strongest teams in the world, but this time the winner is us!

Victory is the only criterion for "improvement"!

This made the media the next day make a series of reports for this game.

"The quadruple double winner helped the national men's basketball team and forcibly beat the giant Spain!"

"With the combination of one high school and one fast inside and outside, the national team may realize the dream of the top four!"

"Our glory has only just begun!"

"Bao Eight Wangfour? We can probably envision a medal! ”

"The rise of grassroots basketball, the dream basketball of 'worker' Shi Lei!"

Winning the NBA finals made Shi Lei the hottest athlete in China for the time being, and in these two games, Shi Lei was the most prominent. With an average of 21 points, 6 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, he is not only the team's scoring champion, but also the assist king, coupled with the care of the leadership, which naturally makes the media report focus on him, and even CCTV5, when the Olympic event is so tense and the off-court reporters are extremely busy, reporters are also sent to Boston to interview the Celtics management's views on Shi Lei's performance in the Olympic Games.

The team's general manager, Danny Brown. Angie received them personally.

'It's a shame that I can't watch the game from the sidelines, but as soon as your game starts, I'm going to drop everything because we have to know everything about him and that's how important it is to us.

Shi is very hardworking, yes, very hard-working, but I am still surprised by his progress, it is not that he has started to learn to use the mid-range shot, which is not surprising to us, what surprises us is that he was able to integrate into a completely unfamiliar team so quickly, yes, I am talking about your national team, the rules are different from here, but Shi has adapted well, he has played the same role as in our team, and used his own strength to help the team win......."

Amid the praise of the media and the encouragement of the leaders, just one day later, the national team welcomed their next opponent, Angola, the weakest in the group.

There are no particularly well-known players in this Angolan men's basketball team, and the four pillar players are only those who have played in the NCAA and the European League. As early as the Olympic group was announced, the national team regarded the match against this team as an opponent who must win, well, this is also the only opponent that the national team is confident of winning.

The facts have not changed much as expected, and Angola has not caused much trouble for the national team.

The all-player national team led by five points in the first quarter, but in the second minute of the second quarter, they allowed Angola to score only two points from free throws in six minutes to give Angola a seventeen-point lead.

After the main team of the national team left the game, Angola once chased the difference to nine points, but the national team changed to the main team later, and the difference between the two sides was quickly expanded to 15 points, which was the middle of the third quarter of the game.

By the end of the third quarter, the national team's lead had been extended to twenty-three. Angola were unable to fight back, and three minutes into the fourth quarter, the difference between the two sides was widened to more than 30 points, and the game went into garbage time.

After this game, the national team tied with Greece for second place in the group with a record of one loss and two wins, the United States team ranked first, and Spain and Germany with two losses and one win in fourth and fifth place, Angola lost all three games in the group stage and finished at the bottom of the group.

After the victory in this match, the national team has in fact qualified for the promotion, which means that the national team has completed the expected task of reaching the quarterfinals. But now is not the time for Muma Nanshan and Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

After advancing to the quarterfinals, the teams in Group A and Group B will play against the first place in Group A against the fourth place in Group B, the second place in Group A against the third place in Group B, the third place in Group A against the second place in Group B, and the fourth place in Group A against the first place in Group B.

In other words, the national team has been working hard for the top four since this time.

Fast forward to August 16, and the national team welcomed their fourth-round opponent, Nowitzki's German team.

Although there are top stars like Nowitzki in the team, and there are all-star centers like Carman in the team, the strength of this German team is not strong, or not better than the original national team, that is, Shi Lei did not join the previous national team.

After Nowitzki and Kaman, there was a talent gap in the German team, and the lack of talent for many years made the members of the team either too old or too young, which seriously affected their competitiveness.

After the start of the game, the national team once again started a perfect start, and the first quarter of the game quickly opened up the gap at 19:9.

The start of the national team at this Olympics has been smooth, even against the United States, the start of the national team is very beautiful.

In the second quarter, the national team replaced the main ......

Nowitzki has always been said to be "soft", but that has a lot to do with their bloody "Black Eight", the only recognized white top star since Bird, who quickly helped the German team out of the predicament.

"Only Tim. Duncan, Kobe. Bryant, LeBron. James, Dirk. Nowitzki was a four-player who was able to succeed in my time. ”

The man who said this was Jordan, and Nowitzki was quick to tell people why he was being judged that way.

At the beginning of the second quarter, he scored two points with a single shot, and then won the roughly confrontation with his former opponent, flying the rough shot fan and assisting his teammate Harman to score a fast break, helping the team narrow the deficit to six points in the space of one minute.

Backwardness is not terrible, but it is terrible to have emotional changes because of backwardness.

The national team was still ahead, but the lineup composed of substitute players thought that an offensive and defensive failure had caused chaos.

Chen Jianghua, who was eager to make contributions, rode quickly, but was blocked under the basket by Harman and Gatlin, and then Gatlin grabbed the rebound and scored two points through the fast break inside in the counterattack, narrowing the difference again.

For a while, the national team was in turmoil! (To be continued.) )
