Chapter 202: Commander of the Pitch
In order to win this battle for honor, the new and old hegemons of Asian basketball sent their strongest teams. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Host Chinese team: point guard Sun Yi, point guard Sun Yue, small forward Zhu Fangyu, big forward Wang Zhizhi, center Su Wei.
Iran men's basketball team: point guard Kamrani, point guard Dafali, small forward Bahrami, big forward Sahachien, center Haddadi.
"Sun Yi, you must freeze the opponent's core point guard." Kamrani, who is only 1.80 meters tall, is very difficult to defend in the eyes of head coach Guo Shiqiang, so he handed over this extremely important task to the strongest player in the team.
"Bahrami," said the young national team coach, visibly hesitating. "Sun Yue, you come to guard against him. Be careful to cut off the connection between Bahrami and Haddadi and keep the opponent as close to the three-point line as possible. "The captain of the Iranian men's basketball team, known as Asia's No. 1 small forward, is not his main weapon with the three-point shot. The most difficult thing for the Iranian team to defend against is that after Haddadi's high-level strategy, he cooperated with Bahrami's air cut.
Zhu Fangyu, who was supposed to be opposite the opponent's small forward, was not surprised when he heard the coach's arrangement. He knew that he was in the right state and was no match for that guy at all. If you really defend your opponent's top scorer in the game, I'm afraid you will lose a lot of hair.
Head coach Guo Shiqiang's bold deployment today was a decision made with the support of NBA players Sun Yi and Sun Yue. If it weren't for these two players, they would have knocked on their door last night.
It's not that Director Guo can't think of a way to deal with the Iranian men's basketball team, it's just that he has been under too much pressure recently. The team is not doing well, and the media will naturally aim the guns on the manager. In the midst of all kinds of emotions of gains and losses, the self-confidence of the Northeast Young Marshal was seriously frustrated.
Once the starters from both sides are on the pitch, the showdown between the Olympic silver medallists and the new Asian champions will begin.
Haddadi faced the home team's center Su Wei and won the jump ball for Iran very easily.
As soon as Kamrani dribbled the ball past half court, he was pressed by the aggressive close-quarters of the Chinese team's No. 6 player. Fortunately, he was experienced and distributed the ball to Bahrami in time.
The Iranian team's style of play is a typical combination of internal and external. Bahrami, who was holding the ball at the top of the right arc, made a few tentative steps and found that the Chinese player in front of him did not show a flaw at all. Seeing that there was no good chance of a breakthrough, the captain of the Iranian national team hoisted the ball to Haddadi, who asked for the ball in the low post.
After a season of training in the NBA, Haddadi, who is known as the second center in Asia, has greatly improved his confrontation ability. Even if Su Wei's tonnage is heavier than him, Haddadi can still use his strength advantage to force into the basket step by step.
A light half-turn hook and the ball hits the bullseye accurately.
2 to 0! The Persian legion took advantage of the inside advantage to take the lead.
It was the turn of the Chinese team to attack, and Sun Yi held the ball to the top of the arc. The opponent set up a three-two defensive formation, and the distance between each Iranian player was well maintained. If you want to break into the inside line, you will definitely fall into a siege in an instant.
In order to break the opponent's formation, Sun Yi beckoned to Su Wei, ready to make a blocking and dismantling cooperation with his teammates, and then act at the opportunity.
Unfortunately, the quality of Su Wei's blocking and dismantling was too low, and the Iranian team's defense was not affected at all. In desperation, Sun Yi had no choice but to force a breakthrough.
Poor Kamrani's lightning-fast first move against his opponent was like a goose with a pestle there. However, the Persian legion, which had made full preparations before the game, did not panic.
Rotation is a must-do for most teams against opponents with strong individual abilities. Defending champions Iran were soon filled by Dafali.
As Kamrani ran towards the unmarked Sun Yue, a high-speed spinning ball flew past his ear.
However, the Iranian team did not have more than one guess Sun Yi's passing intentions. Bahrami flew to arrive, and Sun Yue, who got the ball, had a chance to shoot on the outside, but after a little hesitation, he passed the ball to Zhu Fangyu, who was in an open position.
As the best local shooter in the CBA league, Zhu 8 did not hesitate to drop directly outside the three-point line after receiving the ball from his teammates......
Swish! The arc and direction of the ball thrown by Zhu Fangyu are very good, but unfortunately the strength is a little insufficient.
Woo......!
Sporadic boos rang out from the crowd, and it was clear that the fans at the scene were clearly unhappy with the 'three no's' that the amateur players rarely throw.
"Why don't you vote?"
"I ......"
Sun Yue faced the angry questioning of her roommate of the national team, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.
In fact, he chose to pass the ball to a teammate in a better position without any problems. It's just that the current state of the national team teammates is really not trustworthy.
The Persian team, which got the rebound, did not rush to launch a fast attack, and after Haddadi was in position, the Grizzlies bench center continued to force the opponent's interior.
This time, the Iranian center made a triple threat move with his back and turned directly to make a jumper. The smooth offensive movements made Su Wei stand in place in a daze and watch the ball thrown by the opponent......
Bang!
With a little more power, Haddadi's shot bounced out of the frame.
As soon as they missed the shot, two players of the Iranian team immediately rushed to grab the rebound in the frontcourt. Thanks to the veteran Wang Zhizhi, who took advantage of his height, he clicked the ball twice in the air so that it was not snatched by the opponent.
But with such a delay, the Chinese men's basketball team lost the opportunity to launch a fast attack.
In the face of the opponent's tight joint defense, Sun Yi did not rely on any teammates this time. After getting rid of Camrani's entanglement, he jumped high and jumped directly inside the three-point line to make a pull-up jumper.
Swish! The white net flowers finally bloomed.
While Bahrami has tried hard enough, he simply can't stop the NBA's Rookie of the Year shot.
Wow......!
This beautiful individual attack made thousands of Chinese fans in the stadium applaud desperately.
Sun Yi, who scored the first point in the final for the Chinese men's basketball team, raised his right arm high and waved it vigorously in the air. This is the territory of the Chinese men's basketball team, and if you want to go wild here, I won't agree!
……
In the 10th minute of the first quarter, both sides changed their starting lineups at the same time.
19 to 18! The Olympic runner-up at home has a temporary lead of 1 point.
In the later games, the Persian army used a combination of internal and external tactics to repeatedly tear through the defense of the Chinese team. Especially Dafali, who was marked by Zhu Fangyu, shot three three-pointers alone. And these nine points are all assisted by Haddadi.
On the Chinese team's side, except for Sun Yue, who scored five points, the remaining 14 points were all completed by the core of the Knicks' young team.
Frequent individual singles made Sun Yi's physical energy deplete quickly. At this time, he was sitting on the bench, and sweat was constantly oozing from his skin. After taking a few sips of the sports drinks handed by his teammates, he looked at his roommate next to him and whispered, "In the second quarter, you organize the offense." I'll pick you up on the outside and pass the ball out if there's no good chance of a break. ”
……
As the highest level professional basketball league in Asia, the CBA can attract many strong foreign players to come to pan for gold every season. Normally, the players who can play in such a high-level league are considered good players at least in Asia.
But a group of Chinese men's basketball team rotation lineups in the domestic league were beaten 11-2 by the opponent's bench in just four minutes!
Kamrani, the experienced Iranian team's main point guard, re-entered the court and found that the Chinese players in front of him did not have as strong an attacking desire as in the first quarter. Could it be, could it be that this guy is conserving his strength?
That's right!
Sun Yi, who switched from college to point guard, is now more and more like a strategic commander on the court after several years of training. His pre-game plan for this final was to bite the score of the two sides with the minimum cost in the first three quarters. Wait until the fourth quarter when the opponent's center physical strength declines, and then launch a stormy counterattack to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
Sun Yi's thinking is very bold and correct, generally big players consume faster on the field than outside players because of their height and weight. We often see Yao Ming with his hands on his knees in Rockets games. It's not that his physical fitness is bad, it's just that he consumes it too quickly.
It is unrealistic for Kamrani and Bahrami to play at a super-level level under the focused care of two NBA players. Once, the other half of the brain of the Iranian team, Haddadi was greatly reduced due to physical exhaustion. Expecting a bunch of role players to turn the sky upside down is tantamount to a dream.
However, due to the clumsy performance of his teammates in the national team, Sun Yi's desire to bite the score at the lowest cost may be difficult to achieve.
Sun Yue, who has been practicing ball-handling offense all summer, finally has a stage to show the results of her special training. Seeing that this Hebei guy wearing the No. 9 jersey of the Chinese team, in the face of the defense of the Iranian players, he directly stepped into his two long legs.
Dafari, who was highly focused, did not dare to slack off, and his stout body was ready to stick it and use his strong body to force his opponent back.
Boom!
Due to Sun Yue's average speed, he was quickly entangled by the Iranian team's scoring guard.
Chirping......!
The sudden grinding sound sounded so harsh.
Dafari didn't bother to find out where that voice came from, as the handsome Chinese player broke through with a seemingly simple jump and got rid of his own close defense.
Swish! Because Haddadi, who has the strongest defensive ability of the Iranian team, he was pinned down by Su Wei on the other side of the hoop. Sun Yue, who burst into the three-second zone, made an easy low-handed layup to recover two points for the Chinese team.
……
"Sun Yue broke through the opponent's marking again, oh, he didn't choose to shoot!" CCTV sports channel host Yang Jian.
The ball was passed to Sun Yi outside the three-point line! What a ball! The ball is in! "The guest commentator, Mr. Su Skirt.
"Through slow-motion replay, Sun Yi's shooting position is three steps away from the three-point line, no wonder the opposing point guard Camlani looks helpless."
……
"Sun Yi received a breakthrough from his teammates, did he shoot it?"
With a little arm, Kamrani flew straight up. Take a step into the three-point line and make a quick stop. Pregnant! ”
……
46 to 48!
At half-time, Iran relied on their overall dominance to lead the hosts by two points.
Looking at the opponent's main center, when he walked to the players' tunnel, he was still holding a sports drink in his hand to keep hydrating. The young Chinese teenager curled the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a strange smile.
After more than ten minutes of adjustment at halftime, at the beginning of the third quarter of the game, the Persian Army launched a wave of offensive waves.
Especially in the first half, the two cores of the Iranian team, which were frozen by Sun Yi and Sun Yue, Kamrani and Bahrami hit extremely difficult shots in a row, which once widened the difference between the two sides to more than ten points.
At critical moments, it was still two players who played in the NBA that worked. These two outside players of the Chinese team, who can shoot suddenly, have become a nightmare for Iranian players. Not only did he repeatedly play exquisite coordination in attack, but he also made the opponent's core players suffer in defense.
72 to 68!
The Persian corps, which stormed the entire third quarter, did not take the planned lead.
In the final quarter, as the physical fitness of the main center Haddadi declined, the Iranian team gradually lost the initiative on the court.
"Da Su, don't let that guy catch the ball easily!"
The Knicks, who are desperate for victory, will not miss any opportunity that can consume the core of the opponent. The youngest player in the team, No. 6, has unknowingly become the on-field coach of the national team. He often whispered something to his teammates on the court today, and it seems that Sun Yi has become the backbone of the men's basketball team in the absence of Yao Ming.
In the middle of the fourth quarter, with a breakthrough by Sun Yi. The Chinese men's basketball team, which was suppressed by the opponent for almost the entire game, finally overtook the score.
……
92 to 86!
"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, and the victory song is so loud......"
"The Chinese team defeated the defending champion Iran 92-86 and reached the top podium of the Asian Championships again after two years......
……
Hu Jiashi, deputy director of the basketball management center, who accompanied the leaders of the Sports Bureau to watch the game on the rostrum, quietly wiped the sweat on his head while everyone was paying attention to the boys of the men's basketball team who were celebrating wildly on the court.
Xiao Guo, he's still too young. If I hadn't made a quick decision and unified the team's thinking, this game would have really hung in the air.
……
Haddadi, the core of the Iranian team's inner line, who had cramps in his legs, ignored the team doctor's emergency treatment of him. His dull eyes were full of the NBA's best rookie surrounded by his teammates.
Could it be that the glory of the Iranian men's basketball team is only a short moment two years ago?
This time, we lost. Next time, when that big guy from Team Rocket comes back, will we have a chance?
……
Guo Shiqiang, the young head coach of the national team, sat back on the coach's seat alone at the moment of the game, covered his face and cried bitterly.
He is not crying with excitement, but venting and repentance after the pressure is released!
If, not the savior of the two Knicks players in danger. He, Guo Shiqiang, will become a sinner in the history of Chinese basketball and will be nailed to the cross of shame forever!
"Alas! Lao Tzu has played for 20 years, and this basketball experience is really embarrassing. National Games runner-up, Asian Games runner-up, Olympic runner-up! Well, today the serfs finally turned over and sang! ”
Zhu Fangyu, who was standing on the podium, was not ashamed of his poor performance, but shamelessly joked with his teammates.
It's just that this joke isn't as hateful as the original plane. (To be continued.) )
