Chapter 410: Acting as the starting point guard

The first time he went out as a national team, he scored a team-high 25 points, and Li Huan's performance was naturally warmly welcomed by the Chinese media.

The next day, Li Huan's World Cup qualifying debut was on the hot search, which aroused huge repercussions and attention from the domestic people, which made his Weibo fans immediately rise again.

Li Huan is more and more popular with domestic basketball fans because of his sunny and handsome appearance, strong physical fitness, and calm and calm performance on the court.

The next qualifying match is against Lebanon on December 2 in Fo City, Guangdong Province.

For this game, the Chinese men's basketball team mainly focuses on training, and basically all players will rotate on the court.

In fact, against Syria before, basically most of the players were played, but how long they can play depends on the performance and tactical needs.

For example, Li Huan got more playing time, because his performance was good enough, and Li Nan also wanted to see the run-in between him and the rest of the national team.

In fact, for this big victory against Syria, Li Nan saw that there were still many problems in the team, such as many mistakes, especially some unnecessary mistakes but still made mistakes.

When you play against a weak team, it's okay if you make more mistakes, because the opponent is also making mistakes, but when you play against a strong team or a team of similar strength, too many mistakes will cause you to lose the game.

After the whole game, Li Nan's favorite is Li Huan, whether it is offensive or defensive, there is no problem, especially in terms of error rate, which can basically be said to be zero mistakes, which shows that Li Huan has a natural adaptation to the game, and he is also very devoted.

Compared with the Yao Ming period, the Chinese men's basketball team in this period has Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhelin and Zhou Qi, and Li Nan does not need to worry too much.

The defender line Guo Ailun, Zhao Jiwei and others are also quite good, but there is still a gap between them and the defenders of the strong team in the United States.

If you want to get a good ranking in this World Cup, Li Nan feels that it is very important to be a point guard who is good at organization and can control the whole court, and Li Huan is undoubtedly such a person.

Although Li Nan played the role of small forward against Syria, he is ready to let Li Huan play the role of point guard more in the next game against Lebanon, which also means that Li Huan will compete with Guo Ellen for the role of the main point guard.

The next day, the Chinese men's basketball team flew to Fo City to prepare for the Lebanese game.

Guangdong Province is a major sports province, especially in basketball, which has cultivated a large number of basketball enthusiasts.

Guangdong Province is also the only province with three CBA teams now, and Zhijiang Province was also three before, and later Bayi left from Yongcheng to Chang City, Jiangxi Province.

In fact, Guangdong Province could have reached the size of four CBA teams, but due to the restrictions of the CBA, in the end, that team could not advance to the CBA league and had no choice but to disband.

Getting back to business, and when it comes to Fo City, the Huaxia men's basketball team was warmly welcomed by local fans outside the hotel.

Among them, Yi Jianlian is the pride of Guangdong Province, and the voice of fans is particularly high.

And the only one in the national team who can compare with Li Huan, even in the territory of Guangdong Province, there are a large number of fans who like Li Huan.

This also reflects Li Huan's popularity from one side.

You must know that Li Huan has only been a professional player for a few months, and he can gain so much fan love, in addition to his pleasing appearance and likable personality, the most important thing is that he has strong basketball strength, which is the most fundamental reason why everyone likes him.

Compared with Syria, Lebanon's strength is obviously stronger, so everyone worked hard to prepare for the game under the arrangement of Coach Li Nan the next day.

Lebanon currently sit second in Group E with a record of 6 wins and 2 losses.

On the stage of the Asian Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team and the Lebanese men's basketball team have met 11 times and won all of them.

However, it is worth noting that in the previous qualifying group stage, the national men's basketball team led by Du Feng at that time lost to Lebanon 88-92 in the game on September 13.

This is also the first time that the Chinese men's basketball team has lost to the Lebanese team in the continental competition, so this game is also a revenge battle for the Chinese men's basketball team.

The number one player in the Lebanese men's basketball team is Araki, known as the "Asian Dragic".

He played for the CBA North Air Force, and he played a total of 4 games in this World Preliminary Tournament.

In an average of 25.5 minutes per game, he handed over 16.5 points, 6.3 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2.0 steals.

However, Araki later missed a number of World Preliminary Games due to injury, and he is expected to continue to be sidelined for this game.

Without Araki's pressing, it will definitely be easier for the Chinese men's basketball team to play.

In addition to Araki, another outstanding player in the Lebanese men's basketball team is Mayok.

Mayok also played in Huaxia, but not in the CBA, but in the NBL league.

It is precisely because he has played in Huaxia all year round that he is very familiar with the Chinese men's basketball team.

So far in the World Preliminary Tournament, Mayock has played an average of 27.5 minutes per game, scoring 11.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.8 blocks.

Because Li Nan already had an idea, in this day's preparations, Li Huan appeared more as a point guard, letting Guo Ellen Alexander.

However, Guo Ailun's scoring ability is stronger than his ability to control the ball, and he can appear on the court at the same time as Li Huan.

During the drill, Li Huan cooperated with Wu Qian and Guo Ailun many times, and they all had a tacit understanding.

In the game against Syria, Wu Qian performed very well, scoring 18 points, including 6 of 8 three-pointers, and was a good scoring guard.

And Li Huan, as a point guard, has a really good ability to see and listen to all directions, and he even formed an aerial relay with Yi Jianlian many times in the drill, which is breathtaking.

Li Nan is also very satisfied with Li Huan's performance in the drill and is very much looking forward to the next official competition.

On the evening of the 2nd, the Foshi International Sports Culture and Performing Arts Center was crowded, bringing together a large number of domestic basketball fans to support the Chinese men's basketball team against the Lebanese men's basketball team.

lost one game last time, and everyone is very much looking forward to the Chinese men's basketball team in this game.

When the players from both sides entered the field, the audience couldn't help but shout loudly and cheer, among which Yi Jianlian and Li Huan had the highest voices, and they were undoubtedly the two players who attracted the most attention from the audience.

Yi Jianlian is now the captain of the Chinese men's basketball team and the first brother of the men's basketball team, which is not unusual.

And Li Huan's voice is high, which is the topic that various foreign media are most interested in.

Therefore, this game Li Huan especially attracted the attention of Chinese and foreign media, and it is not the same as the previous one.

The players from both sides soon entered, and the Chinese men's basketball team started with Li Huan, Guo Ailun, Zhou Peng, Yi Jianlian and Wang Zelin.

And Li Huan played the role of point guard for the first time in the Chinese men's basketball team, controlling the ball and organizing the offense.

When the two sides jumped the ball, Li Huan got the basketball from his teammates for the first time and quickly began to dribble to the front court.
