Originally, they envisioned the situation that the Chinese team relied on Li Tuanjie's inexplicable strength, and at the end of the first half, it was slightly ahead by a few points, as long as it did not exceed five points, which was an acceptable result for the Dream Team!

But what the Dream Team generals didn't expect was that in the first half of the game, they won a lot of free throws and tied the score of the two sides, which was the situation they were most willing to see!

The physical fitness of the players of the Chinese team is certainly not comparable to that of the NBA stars, and at the beginning of the second half of the game, the dream team must still be alive and well, and the main players of the Chinese team may encounter a lot of physical problems!

Of course, the Dream Team generals never thought that Li Tuanjie would encounter physical problems, in their opinion, Li Tuanjie is an all-powerful existence, as if there are no shortcomings in his body at all!

"Keep cheering up, I have a hunch that the winner of this game will definitely be us!" Coach K is full of confidence, and a draw in the first half is a win for the Dream Team!

……

Similar to the situation on the Dream Team's side, the Chinese men's basketball team was also full of laughter, and the United States team was tied at halftime? And it's the strongest American team in the 21st century that it's a draw, isn't it worth rejoicing?!

Even Yao Ming was full of joy, such an ending had already made him extremely satisfied!

Everyone was smiling, but only Li Tuanjie and Stotts had expressionless faces.

Li Tuanjie now feels Unseld's powerlessness, and his performance is already against the sky, but he still can't lead the team to play to the advantage......

His own statistics are incomparably luxurious, but the team loses, which is actually an irony for NBA players, Li Tuanjie doesn't want to score 100 points for a while, but the team loses in today's game!

In that case, Li Tuanjie's name is expected to remain in the Olympic basketball history forever, and on August 24, 2008, Chinese men's basketball player Li Tuanjie scored more than 100 points in a game against the American Dream Team, but the team lost the game......

Li Tuanjie feels that it is a shame when he thinks about it, not only for him, but also for the men's national basketball team!

……

Stotts was expressionless, not dissatisfied with the performance of the players on the field......

In fact, the men's basketball team has played such a game, which has already made Stotts full of surprises, and he can now guarantee a silver medal, what else can he not be satisfied with!

The reason why he looked expressionless and contemplative was because he saw that Li Tuanjie seemed to have something on his mind, and he, the head coach, was grinning beside him, didn't he obviously not give Li Tuanjie face......

"Unity, relax, you can play like this, you are worthy of the entrustment of the fans across the country, I believe they must be satisfied with your performance to the point of no return, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself!" Yao Ming saw Li Tuanjie frowning and sitting on the bench, patted Li Tuanjie on the shoulder and said.

"No, Brother Yao, we must win this game! Either way, we're going to win! And I'm convinced that I can win too! Li Tuanjie said to Yao Ming with a firm face.

"If I don't win the gold medal, it's a failure for me, who will remember who won the silver medal except for myself and the fans in my own country?! The silver medal is meaningless, it is not what I am going to the Olympics for, I have only one goal, and that is the gold medal! ”

"Whether it's for my own goals, or for the Chinese men's basketball team to completely enter the eyes of fans around the world, we must win this game!"

"Although we are not falling behind at the moment, everyone's physical fitness is definitely not as adequate as that of the dream team, so we are still at a disadvantage at the moment, and we must not take it lightly!"

Li Tuanjie's words woke up the young players who were originally laughing!

yes, what's there to be happy about if you only get a silver medal?! Who will remember the silver medalist?!

At present, this Olympic Games is the best opportunity for the Chinese men's basketball team to win gold, and the best opportunity for the Chinese men's basketball team to completely reach the pinnacle of basketball.

Moreover, Li Tuanjie's words are also very reasonable, don't look at the current draw between the two sides, the Dream Team is obviously in an advantage, because their lineup is better and the players' physical fitness is better!

Their Chinese men's national basketball team is actually at a disadvantage at the moment!

Thinking of this, the young players of the men's basketball team suddenly couldn't laugh, and looked at Li Tuanjie solemnly, waiting for Li Tuanjie's next instructions!

"So, now we have to find a way to beat the U.S.!"

"Ahem, unity, in fact, I have a way......" Stotts, who had not spoken all this time, and had no sense of existence, suddenly spoke at this time.

"Oh? Coach, what can you do to help us win against Team USA?! Sun Yue looked at Stotts with surprise on his face......

"Nonsense, there must be, are you the best head coach in the league for nothing......" Stotts said proudly, patting his chest.

"Isn't it just ......for nothing," Sun Yue secretly slandered......

"Since the U.S. team's current tie with us relies on free throws, then send them to the free throw line as he wishes!" Stotts waved his hand and said to the men's basketball team.

Sending someone to the free-throw line? This...... Can it be considered a solution?!

Many men's basketball players rolled their eyes, it was really cheap and not good, the reason why the dream team was able to tie the score with the Chinese team in the first half was because of free throws, and now Stotts will continue to send people to the free throw line?!

Only Li Tuanjie and Yao Ming laughed, patted Stotts on the shoulder and smiled: "Yes, coach, this is a good idea!" Don't they like free throws, so let them make them all free-throws! Yao Ming laughed!

Li Tuanjie was also full of smiles, patted his head, why didn't he think of this solution!

Needless to say, the tactics set up by Stotts must be the shark slashing tactic......

Howard, the current leader of the U.S. team, is not much better than O'Neal in terms of free throw shooting percentage, and the free throw shooting rate is basically about 50 percent......

And this international event does not restrict shark slashing tactics like the NBA, so it is only fitting to use shark slashing tactics in this game against the United States!

Of course, the Dream Team will definitely not have no way to deal with the shark slashing tactics, but the only way to deal with it is to take Howard off the field, so that the internal strength of the American team will drop significantly!

Anyway, the shark slashing tactic is definitely the most suitable tactic for the men's national basketball team at the moment!

Seeing that the tactics he proposed were recognized by Li Tuanjie and Yao Ming, Stotts didn't want to be too proud in his heart, and finally ...... He finally found a presence at the Olympics......

In the previous rounds of games, Stotts often stayed up late at night to watch the game, so sometimes he was not energetic during the day, basketball games, Stotts has watched for half his life, plus the situation of hanging on the court, he didn't watch it at all, and there were two games that directly began to doze off......

And in today's game, judging from the current situation, once the Chinese team can win, the tactic that Stotts came up with will become crucial!

Li Tuanjie is very happy, it seems that it is very cost-effective to bring Stotts over this time, at least with the help of shark cutting tactics, the chances of the Chinese team winning can be increased by at least two points!

"Good job, Stotts, when I get back to the United States, I'll find a way to get Ballmer to give you a raise!" Li Tuanjie said with a low chuckle next to Stotts.

"What? Are you telling the truth? Lee unity! Then I'll leave this matter to you, just say what you need me to do! Stotts was beaming, and the news was probably the best he'd heard all the offseason!

Stotts currently earns less than $2 million a year, which is at the bottom of the league......

However, the honor in Stotts' hands is so scary that many coaches ridicule Stotts's honor for not being valuable......

After all, if you change to other coaches and get the best head coach Lian Zhuang, how can you have an annual salary of four or five million......

Once upon a time, Stotts also thought about jumping ship, but he didn't have much confidence, and after changing teams, he couldn't lead the team to play and was fired again......

It's better to stay in the Bucks' annual salary of two million, and by the way, you can earn more honors......

When he heard that Li Tuanjie was going to find Ballmer to give him a raise, Stotts couldn't wait to hug Li Tuanjie's thigh and shout boss......

……

"There's nothing you need to do, just wait for my news! The past two years have been hard for you......" Li Tuanjie patted Stotts on the shoulder and said sincerely.

In the past two years, because Li Tuanjie is not very willing to "waste" his brother Xia Longwen's US dollars, Stotts's salary increase has been dragging on......

Now that the Bucks have changed hands, the boss has become a stupid and money-rich Ballmer, Li Tuanjie is not so polite, of course, Li Tuanjie will not help Stotts ask for a price, that is too unkind, he is ready to help Stotts ask for a salary contract that can basically match Stotts's honor!

Presumably, Ballmer's side will not be too concerned about such a salary, and will definitely not refuse Li Tuanjie!

……

"Doot toot!" The referee's whistle blew again, the ten-minute halftime break ended, and the second half began!

What stunned the dream team was that the Chinese men's basketball team did not let Yao Ming appear directly this time, but sent a substitute center whose name they didn't even know!

Although Yao Ming's physical consumption in the first half of the game was extremely huge, after ten minutes of news, couldn't Yao Ming play? !

Not only the American team will be surprised, but even the fans at the scene and watching the live broadcast are extremely puzzled!

Why don't you let Yao Ming, the pillar of the center inside, play? Instead, Tang Zhengdong was dispatched, and the strength of these two people is not at the same level at all, okay? !

Could it be that this Stotts is an old American spy?! Specifically to harm the Chinese men's basketball team?! This is a conjecture hovering in the minds of fans......

Soon, as word of mouth spreads, this conjecture also became a "reality......

"Spy!"

"Spy!"

There was a uniform shout on the field, and Stotts looked a little embarrassed when he heard the explanation of the staff around him......

However, he has no way to explain at the moment, so he can only wait for the post-match press conference to explain to the fans.

……

After Tang Zhengdong came on the court, he took five fouls in a row and was sent off......

Unlike NBA rules, the Olympics are where you have to leave the court after five fouls......

It is not surprising to get five fouls in the game, what is really surprising is that Tang Zhengdong got five fouls in one offensive round!

Of course, these five fouls are not fouls that occurred during the offensive process of the opposing player, so the opponent cannot make free throws through these five fouls!

……

The fans in the stadium were stunned, and they said that they were not spies?! If he wasn't a spy, he would have assigned Tang Zhengdong to do this kind of thing?!

Tang Zhengdong's strength is indeed not very good, at least there is a huge gap with Yao Ming or Howard and others, but it is not so bad that he gets five fouls in a row in an offensive round!

If you say it's not the manager's arrangement, who believes it?!

……

Howard now feels like he's beeping a dog, and all of Tang Zhengdong's five fouls after his appearance were fouls blown down because of his arms around Howard......

Thinking that he had been hugged by a big man so many times, Howard couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back......

After Tang Zhengdong went down, Stotts arranged for a substitute center to appear......

What made Howard even more speechless was that as soon as the substitute center came up, he hugged Howard three times in a row and was whistled for three fouls......

Since they were all fouls in a non-offensive state, the Dream Team didn't get a chance to make free throws!

The NBA's rule is that after a team commits four fouls in a single quarter, the opposing team starts to get free throws, while FIFA only has two halves of the game, so they accumulate eight fouls in a single game before making free throws......

In just one offensive round, in less than thirty seconds, the referee's whistle blew out......

There is no doubt that eight fouls were blown in a single offensive round, which is definitely the greatest miracle in basketball history......

When China's backup center fouled for the fourth time, Howard finally walked to the free throw line......

No matter how stupid Howard is, he must now know the plan of the Chinese team, that is, to cut him......

Coach K stood on the sidelines, saw the scene on the field, glared at Stotts, and secretly said shamelessly in his heart!

He never imagined that Stotts would use such a shameless trick at the Olympics, and he would use it so blatantly, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was going to use shark cutting tactics!

Eight fouls were whistled in just one offensive round, and what a shameless head coach it would have to be to orchestrate such a tactic......

……

Howard hardened his head and walked to the free throw line, swearing and not knowing what he was talking about......

Stotts ...... Last of your line...... Didn't ......"

……

Free throws are a very difficult problem for Howard, and if it weren't for the free throw limit, Howard's lethality on the inside would have risen a notch.

Why Yao Ming is strong, among them, his super excellent free throw shooting rate is also an extremely important reason!

"Phew......" Howard took the basketball from the referee's hand, took a deep breath, and shot a free throw!

The ball stumbled into the basket!

Howard grinned and laughed, smiling provocatively at Li Tuanjie, who was about to fight for a rebound under the basket......

"Let you cut me, and I'll give you two penalties later!" Howard was overjoyed......

"Howard, if you dare to score this second goal, in the league in the future, I will cut 100 points on you once I see you!"

Just when Howard was full of joy, a cold voice came, which made Howard can't help but get goosebumps on his back......

You don't have to think about it to know that it must be Li Tuanjie who can say such things!

……

In such a game at the moment, of course, Howard can't release the water directly because of Li Tuanjie's words, but the psychological impact of these words on Howard is certain!

If someone else said this, Howard would definitely laugh off his big teeth and want to cut 100 points on Lao Tzu's head? Even Chamberlain's rebirth is impossible!

But this was said by Li Tuanjie, Howard has to weigh it, Li Tuanjie with the strength he showed today, if he is really anxious, it is really not impossible to cut 100 points on Howard every time!

Thinking of this, Howard couldn't help but shiver, and the free throws in his hands were also out of the basket.

……

Soon, the backup center of the Chinese men's basketball team got another foul on Howard and left the court with five fouls......

There is no substitute center available on the men's basketball side, but this is difficult for Stotts to send Huang Yongshan on the bench......

Anyway, it's a shark slashing tactic, and whoever cuts it has the same effect......

After Hwang Yong-sun came on the court, he fouled Howard in three consecutive offensive rounds and sent Howard to the free throw line......

Old K finally couldn't sit still and called a timeout to take Howard down......

Counting the three fouls on Huang Yongshan's side, Howard got a total of ten free throw opportunities, but the shooting rate was embarrassing, only 40 percent!

It is equivalent to saying that in these five offensive rounds, the Dream Team only scored a total of four points!

The Chinese men's basketball team scored 9 points in five offensive rounds!

After going back and forth, the men's basketball team directly led by five points!

If you continue to play like this, the point difference will only get bigger and bigger, and there are many players who can't play on the Chinese men's basketball team, and this kind of moment can best appreciate their value!

Howard is now in the mood of beeping a dog, playing well, why did he come to cut sharks again? Haven't you had enough of it in the NBA?!

After repeated fouls, the fans at the scene who understood the ball also saw Stotts's intentions, and couldn't help shouting at Stotts, treating the national team of his motherland, and still using such shameless tactics, Stotts is really a talent......

After the timeout, Huang Yongshan was replaced by Yao Ming, Howard did not play, and the rebounding intensity of the Dream Team suddenly decreased sharply!

"It's really shameless, I didn't look down on this Stotts before, a little scout, I didn't expect it to be so shameless!" It's impossible for Coach K not to be angry in his heart now!

Generally, the coaches from these academies are actually not very eye-catching for those wild road coaches, especially Stotts is still the wild road in the wild road......

But although the old Coach K is angry, he is helpless, Howard has to take the court, at least it is difficult for Howard to continue to play in the second half......

Howard's departure means that the strength of the dream team's interior line has been greatly reduced, and the overall strength has decreased a lot.

……

The game continued, after Howard went off the court, the Dragon King Bosh appeared, his rebounding strength was too far worse than Howard's, and Yao Ming's control of rebounds under the basket was much stronger!

In this way, Li Tuanjie can also project three points with confidence......

Li Tuanjie led the Chinese men's basketball team to continue to expand the advantage of the point difference!

By the time the second half was halfway through, the Chinese men's basketball team had reached double digits!

Coach K shouted a timeout again, they can't continue to play like this, if they continue, their dream team will definitely lose again!

Even Coach K, who has dominated the basketball world for decades, is now a little flustered, what should I do next?!

Fools know that the dream team should restrict Li Tuanjie, but how can Li Tuanjie restrict?!

Coach K is now very confused, and Coach Li's dominance has overturned Coach K's decades of basketball common sense!

Can a basketball player really be above tactics?!

In his opinion, tactics are above all else, and the reason why he doesn't want to coach in the NBA is probably not necessarily the reason why NBA stars are difficult to discipline......

And now this sentence, Coach K has to admit it even if he doesn't admit it, because Li Tuanjie has completely proved the correctness of this sentence with his dominance!

The Dream Team team is getting a little depressed, and the situation is now beyond what they expected......

If it weren't for Stotts's shark-cutting tactics, then the two sides would still be in a tie now, and even the Dream Team would not be impossible to take the lead with the help of physical fitness and lineup......

"Damn Stotts! Traitor! Traitor! Chris Paul gritted his teeth and said!

"Stotts, the most shameless head coach in the entire NBA, has ruined our good deeds, if we can't win the championship this time...... "Dragon King Bosh said gloomily.

"It seems that it is necessary to contact my brothers......" said the social melon with a cold face......

The Dream Team players on the scene gritted their teeth with hatred for Stotts, and they couldn't wait to rush to the sidelines of the opponent to blast Stotts right now......

Especially when they saw the old face of Stotts over there smiling a chrysanthemum, they had an urge to run away......

……

The situation is getting more and more unfavorable for the Dream Team, and they are getting more and more anxious, and the more anxious they are, the more chaotic the game will become......

These superstars are all super capable players, and they all hope to use their personal abilities to turn defeat into victory, but how can it be so easy, their score difference is getting bigger and bigger!

The Chinese fans who watched the game gave a tsunami-like cheer, and they finally waited for this day!
