Chapter 203: The Chinese team qualifies from the group
This is the Olympics, and Nash actually cut down the data of 40+15+5, which has to be amazing.
Seeing Nash's data, many fans directly gave Nash the nickname of Canada's Holy Hand.
Oscar Schmidt, the Holy Hand, can be said to be the most remarkable miracle in the history of the Olympic Games, and if you really want to talk about the legend, Jordan is not worth mentioning in front of the Holy Hand.
In 1987, Oscar led the mediocre Brazilian team to defeat the United States team in the World Championships, scoring 46 points in the game!
Although the U.S. team before '92 was not a dream team, the stars were also quite golden, and the leading stars of that U.S. team were Admiral David Robinson and All-Star power forward Danny Manning, and even so, the U.S. team was reversed by Brazil after leading by fourteen points in the first half.
If these 87 years are considered a miracle, then the 88 Seoul Olympics are enough to be called a miracle.
First, he scored 44 points against Spain, breaking the Olympic record for points scored in a single game, and then he scored 55 points in a single game, setting a new record for himself.
In this Seoul Olympics, Oscar averaged 42.3 points per game, setting a new record for a total of ten Olympic Games, including single-game scoring records, single-game scores, three-point shots, two-point shots, and free throw shots.
And in 1992, relying on his own strength, he led the mediocre Brazilian team to win the fifth place in the Olympic Games.
Unlike Argentina, where football and basketball are very strong, Brazil is strong in football, and basketball is not very good.
If there is no Oscar, the strength of the Brazilian team may not be as good as the Chinese team......
But it was because of Oscar's presence that he brought this Brazilian team to the fifth place in the Olympic Games, what a miracle.
For example, in the last Barcelona Olympics, a great god suddenly emerged from the Chinese men's basketball team, bringing the Chinese men's basketball team to the fifth place in the Olympic Games, and I am afraid that it will have to be praised by Chinese fans.
In addition to the various miracles of the Olympic Games, Oscar scored a total of 49,703 points in his career, nearly 50,000 points......
More than 11,000 points more than Abdul-Jabbar, who tops the NBA's total scoring list.
There may be fans who wonder how this guy scored so many points
You must know that the NBA is the NBA with the most intensive schedule in the world, and like the professional leagues in other countries, the schedule is generally no more than 40 games.
In this case, how did he score nearly 50,000 career points
The reason is simple, Oscar doesn't just play one league, he has several leagues in a row......
Italian league, Brazilian league, Spanish league, etc., anyway, as long as it is a European league, as long as the money is given and the schedule does not conflict, he will play.
The only regret for fans is that Oscar did not leave a figure in the NBA.
The reason why I couldn't play in the NBA may not be believed by fans.
The first reason is that the NBA had a relatively inhumane rule before 89, that is, players who played in the NBA could not go to international tournaments.
Later, the U.S. team lost its basketball hegemony in international competitions, and this inhumane rule was released, which led to the birth of the Dream Team in '92.
And Oscar was actually selected by the Nets in the sixth round in 84, the year Jordan was drafted......
It was precisely because he couldn't play for his country after playing in the NBA that Oscar gave up the opportunity to join the NBA.
In addition to this reason, there is also the reason why the NBA makes too little money.
It is estimated that some people are about to vomit blood when they hear this reason.
I still earn less in the NBA! There are other basketball leagues in the world that make more money than the NBA
If it were someone else, it would naturally be the NBA that made a lot of money, but don't forget that the Oscars played several leagues in a row and received several salaries.
And if he plays in the NBA, with the intensive schedule of the NBA and the rules restrictions, he can only get a salary from the NBA.
If he went to play in the NBA, his salary would only be one-third of what he is now, and no one would be able to do such a stupid thing.
These two reasons have led to Oscar never appearing in the NBA.
This must be an extremely regrettable thing for fans, if the Oscar draft entered the NBA that year, as a rookie in the same class as Jordan, maybe there will be a grand scene of the previous black and white double battle in the past two years.
……
As for the moment, with the sharp rise in NBA salaries and the fact that players are not restricted from participating in international games, Oscar can come to the NBA, but the key age is too great.
Now Oscar is 38 years old, and he is full to play in the NBA at this age.
So it is destined that Oscar Schmidt will never appear in the NBA, which is undoubtedly a huge regret for fans.
……
And now with the emergence of Nash, the fans' regrets can also be remedied.
Hopefully, they will be able to witness the birth of another Oskar-Schmidt.
……
After several group stage games, the U.S. team won all five games, and each game was a big win over the opponent by at least 20 points!
Even Lithuania, which is the strongest in the same group, is powerless in front of the American team.
Lithuania's leading star is none other than Sabonis, who is known as the roof of the world.
If you want to say why a monster team like the Dream Team appears, it has to mention Sabonis's name.
If it weren't for the '88 Seoul Olympics, when Sabonis won the men's basketball championship for the Soviet Union, I'm afraid the United States would still be living in the dream that they could win the championship by sending a few players......
However, now that Sabonis is also old, and the American team is not as weak as it was in 88, Lithuania wants to win against the American team, which is obviously not very likely.
There is no doubt that the U.S. team is the top result in the group.
As for the Chinese team, which Davidson is quite concerned about, it also steadily qualified for the group.
In the group stage, the Chinese team won Angola, Argentina and Croatia, and lost to the United States and Lithuania.
The loss to the United States team was a 21-point deficit, which is actually quite good, and it is the team with the fewest points in this round of group stage against the United States.
As for the loss to Lithuania, although the Chinese men's basketball team lost, it only lost by three points, and if they were lucky, maybe they would be the winners.
In any case, the Chinese men's basketball team, which won three games, qualified for the group and has steadily won the top eight rankings!
The top eight, even if it is only eighth, this also breaks the best ranking in the history of the Olympic Games of the Chinese men's basketball team!
One can imagine how excited domestic fans are right now.
What's even more exciting is that now that the group stage has been played, the Chinese team has come out, and finally does not have to face the two strong rivals of the United States and Lithuania, and the next schedule may be easier, so that the results of the men's basketball team will definitely not stop at eighth place.
