Chapter 261: Love and Kill! (The update has arrived, ask for a monthly pass~)
Ginobili 15 points, Nocioni 14, Scola 13 and Oberto 11......
The Argentines proved with their actions what it means to be a team basketball Americas.
Ginobili's several passes in the game caused fans to sigh.
It turns out that basketball can still be played like this!
Nowitzki also fell into deep contemplation after watching the game.
As the fans said before, let him play the American team again, he is very confident.
Because he is confident that with his own ability, plus the team's team, there is a chance to win.
But this Argentine team, to have a team, to have an individual, to make him feel like he can't start.
In fact, after four games in the quarterfinals on this day, fans can basically see one thing clearly.
That is the score given by FIBA, whether it is a general review or an individual review, it is actually relatively objective.
Both Yugoslavia and Argentina have proved that they are indeed a notch better than the others.
As for the Chinese team and the American team, no matter what the prediction, there will be underrated and overrated teams.
After the four quarterfinals on this day, the forum was already lively again.
And this time, the comments on the side of American fans have changed dramatically.
"So in the end, the Chinese team entered the semifinals of the World Championships, but we were blocked from the semifinals?"
"That's it! Historic shame! It's Basketball Disaster Day in the United States! ”
"Except for Paul Pearce, no one else on this team deserves to be in the national team!"
"Look, this is what we call freedom, and in the end, those won't even play in the national team, so why do we spend money to support them?"
"I said, the NBA shouldn't have let black people in and play, look at what has become of it! Blacks are the most enjoyable race! ”
"Goodbye, brothers, your number is gone."
"I also think it's really unpatriotic for those stars to refuse a call-up to the national team, we are the most patriotic country in the world."
"So it's already like this, what else can I do? Is it impressive for them to deliberately lose and finish 8th? ”
“…… It's better to finish the game early and come back early, and the Athens Olympics just send superstars to bring back the championship. ”
"And this national team except for Pierce, everyone else is banned from the national team for life, they don't deserve it!"
……
There was a lot of scolding on the American forum, and there was a lot of scolding on the domestic forum.
The Chinese team can't win even a game behind, and the worst is the fourth, and the ranking is higher than the fifth place behind the American team!
Maybe before this, you can never imagine that the Chinese men's basketball team will have a better performance than the American men's basketball team in the World Series!
It's quite dreamy to say, not to mention that it's happening right in front of your eyes!
What's more, the U.S. team may not be able to play fifth!
Cool in one word!
At the end of the day, the two matches of the World Championship semi-finals were finally decided.
Germany vs. Argentina and China vs. Yugoslavia.
The opponents are all the top three teams in the overall round of this World Championship, and for both Germany and China, their semi-finals can be predictably difficult.
Fortunately, there is an off-season in between, so that they can think about how to play the next game.
The good news for the Chinese team is that they beat this Yugoslav team.
The bad news is that the Yugoslav team they won didn't have Divac and Peja, but both are now back from injury.
And once they reach the knockout rounds, it's unlikely that they will miss the game again.
Divac and Peja, an inside core and an outside core, have improved the Yugoslav team obviously.
You said that you want to ask how to win, but in fact, Sun Hao doesn't know.
There is no other way than to fight with all your might.
On this off-season, Wang Fei only arranged training in the morning, and let the players relax in the afternoon.
Then during the break, Sun Hao had another uninvited guest here.
Raga Bell is also in polis.
And he made a request to Sun Hao, and he wanted to train with Sun Hao later.
In the playoffs last season, he locked Kobe Bryant, which brought him unprecedented pressure from public opinion.
Although it was impulsive, he also knew that it was the price he had to pay.
The pressure was devastating, and his choice was...... Strive to improve yourself.
Sun Hao gave him advice before, and he successfully gained a foothold in the NBA after adopting it, so after having this idea, the first thing he thought of was Sun Hao.
"I'm going to train in Germany later."
Sun Hao said his own arrangement.
Bell was stunned for a moment, he obviously didn't expect Sun Hao to go to Europe.
But after a moment of hesitation, he nodded.
"As long as you're still training on Earth, I'll be able to go."
And he also said such a sentence, it seems that he has a strong desire to improve himself.
Sun Hao accepted it with a smile.
In fact, it takes more time to accumulate experience on defense than on offense.
Unlike when he used the eye of the sky to suggest Bell's 3D route, if you want to improve Bale's defense, it is no longer useful to talk about it.
In contrast, actual combat confrontation in training will be more helpful.
Training with Bale, not to mention that Bale's defense can be improved, even he can also hone his offensive skills in Bale's defense.
It's a win-win thing.
Moreover, he and Nowitzki practice passing, and if you can't just practice, you have to fight, and Bale's 3D is also very suitable.
After a day of off-season, the semi-finals of the World Championships kicked off the next day.
Germany and Argentina started the match.
The German team did a good job of thinking and they played very aggressively from the start.
But they fell behind.
It is said that Australia is strong, and South American basketball is actually even better.
This makes them strong on the defensive end.
The rest of the German team had no opposition advantage, and the ball played and became Nowitzki's singles.
On the contrary, the Argentine team is still the same as the last game against the United States, and it blooms more.
In the first half, Nowitzki scored 18 points to help the German team bite the score.
But in the second half, Argentina began to frantically frantically frantically flank Nowitzki, and no one else in the German team stepped up to provide enough firepower.
The situation began to gradually fall to the side of the Argentine team.
In the end, although Nowitzki led the German team to a frantic comeback in the final quarter.
However, Argentina maintained the lead until the end of the game, as they did against the United States.
In the end, the score was fixed at 86-80.
After 52 years, the Argentine team reached the final of the World Championship again!
Germany, on the other hand, did not have a chance to set further records.
After the game, Sun Hao didn't have time to comfort Nowitzki, because the match between China and Yugoslavia started immediately.
Nowitzki didn't leave right away, and he came to the audience as soon as possible.
He has already lost, and the previous agreement with Sun Hao about the finals has become empty talk.
But he hoped that Sun Hao would win.
The Chinese team and the Yugoslav team played each other in the group stage, and they are already familiar with each other.
So unlike Germany and Argentina in the front, the two teams started like old husbands and wives, patting their butts and going straight to the point.
The Chinese team played more individual singles, while Yugoslavia stuck to their team basketball.
At halftime, the Chinese team trailed the Yugoslav team by double digits.
It's not a question of playing style, it's a real difference in strength.
When this Yugoslav team was fully staffed, its strength was ridiculously strong.
Let's just say that Divac and Peja, who didn't play before, had 8 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists in one half, and one scored 2 three-pointers and scored 10 points.
That adds up to 18 points, and it's all very efficient.
The Puerto Rican team said it couldn't wait for it.
However, the Chinese team can play this far, and it is obviously not a team that admits defeat so easily.
In the second half, Sun Hao took the lead, followed by Yao Ming, and began a crazy counterattack, once overtaking the score.
But by the end of the third and fourth quarters, the physical problems of the Chinese team began to appear again.
Sun Hao and Yao Ming had to play in the opening quarter in the final quarter.
But in the second half of the game, after their fitness began to decline, the initiative fell to the side of the Yugoslav team.
In the end, although Sun Hao scored 25 points and Yao Ming also had 17 points and 12 boards, the Chinese team still lost 83-93.
The result of the game was a bit regrettable, but after the game, the fans present still collectively applauded the Chinese team.
Everyone can see the difference in strength between the two teams, but everyone can see how hard the Chinese team is playing.
And there is no shame in losing to this Yugoslavia.
The Yugoslav team was the last team to win the World Championships, and they beat Argentina in the final.
Excluding the unworthy performance of the United States team, this Yugoslav team is also the strongest team in the tournament.
Sun Hao is in the second grade, Yao Ming is in his rookie season, Yi Jianlian has not yet played in the NBA, and Wang Zhizhi and Battle have just gained a foothold in the NBA.
Looking at the Yugoslav team, Bodiloga, Divac, and Peja are all at the peak of their careers.
This is just a simple comparison of the individual strength of the players, not to mention the team gap between the two teams.
and, the desire to win brought about by the last Yugoslav national team.
Therefore, winning is a super-level performance, and losing is completely reasonable.
After the game, Sun Hao and Bodi Loga hugged for a long time.
The two men have also won and lost from the Champions League to the World Championships, and the story about them as opponents may be coming to an end.
As for whether there is a story as a teammate, it is unknown now.
After the game, Nowitzki also went down to the field.
His expression was slightly complicated.
Originally, he said that the two of them would meet together in the final, but they both fell outside the door of the semi-finals.
As it turns out, the flag really can't be set up randomly.
However, the good news is that they are also considered to have met, but in the third and fourth place finals.
Moreover, don't underestimate these three or four finals, although they are only one place behind, the meaning is completely different.
Because the third team can get a card!
This is important!
In the future, when people talk about the World Series, the first thing to talk about is the champion, and the second and third places will be mentioned, that is, the second and third places.
But it is rare to mention who is the fourth.
Fourth place, basically little known.
So this is a brotherly game, and it is also a killing game.
It is not only a matter of superiority but also a decision of "life and death".
Because whoever wins will win the medal in history.
And what loses will exist more in search engine keywords.
"I'm not going to show mercy."
After chatting for a while, Nowitzki took the lead in "attacking".
"Don't worry, when I get the medal, I will definitely give you more touches."
Sun Hao said unceremoniously.
They are, to love each other and kill each other.
The final day was the next day, and both matches were in the evening.
The third and fourth place finals between China and Germany came first, followed by the finals of Argentina and Yugoslavia.
All four teams have limited time to prepare.
On this morning, the men's basketball team was conducting daily training.
Sun Hao found Wang Fei in private.
Wang Fei's coaching at the World Championships this time was very good, and Sun Hao did not make any suggestions.
However, the third and fourth finals are related to whether he can win cards, and he also wants to touch Wang Fei's ideas.
For Sun Hao's arrival, Wang Fei naturally welcomed it.
The experience in the Mavericks team gave him a very comprehensive understanding of Sun Hao's strength.
It's not just about individual ability, it's also about understanding basketball strategy.
The two exchanged ideas, and the results coincided.
Wrap Nowitzki!
Nowitzki is very strong, and he has averaged nearly 24 points per game in this World Championships, second only to Sun Hao.
But the German team, with the exception of Nowitzki, averaged double-doubles in points per game.
In other words, it's the standard single-core team.
There is no more effective strategy than the inclusion of Nowitzki.
When he came out of Wang Fei's room, Sun Hao's face flashed with an unbearable but determined look.
I'm sorry, Dirk, for the medal career of the Chinese team, I can only sacrifice you!
Sun Hao thought so.
But maybe he never thought that when he was communicating with Wang Fei, Nowitzki also found the head coach of the German team.
Moreover, he also put forward his own defensive strategy against the Chinese team.
Well, wrap Sun Hao!
Although Sun Hao's organization is good, his passing ability is not very strong.
As a teammate, no one knows Sun Hao better than Nowitzki.
And the FIBA game is different from last season's NBA, because three seconds of defense are allowed, and the center under the basket can stay under the basket all the time.
In this case, the outside line will contain Sun Hao, which will greatly reduce the offensive efficiency of the Chinese team.
The game, naturally, will fall to the side of the German team.
Coming out of the manager's office, Nowitzki also took a long breath.
To be honest, when Nash ran away, he and Sun Hao were the closest comrades-in-arms in Dallas.
Although he said that he would not show mercy before, he still didn't want Sun Hao to be sad in his heart.
After all, they're going to have to work hard together for the championship next season.
But! There is a trade-off in everything!
For the revival of German basketball and the future of German basketball, Sun, I can only grieve you!
