Chapter 167: A Different Way

The men's basketball team at the Olympic Games is divided into Group A and Group B, with six teams in each group playing the group stage.

In the end, there are 8 teams that will advance, so as long as the top four teams in each group can qualify, so the conditions for promotion, under normal circumstances, are to win two games.

First up are Group A, Russia and Iran.

The Chinese team's game was played in the last game on August 10, at 10:15 p.m., against the famous U.S. men's basketball team.

Dream Eight Team.

Encountering such a strong opponent in the first game is not a second for the entire men's basketball team, but in other words, the American men's basketball team can't win if it encounters anyone, and it's the same if it loses early or late.

Wang tomorrow does not think so.

Playing the U.S. men's basketball team is actually an opportunity for the Chinese men's basketball team, because after playing the U.S. men's basketball team, the second game is to play Spain, which is ranked second in the world.

After completing a set of papers for the third year of high school, I will make a set of papers for the third year of junior high school.

Wang Mingming wants to use the U.S. men's basketball team to forge the confidence of the Chinese men's basketball team and hone their state at the same time.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Wukesong Gymnasium.

Like many basketball halls in the NBA, Wukesong Stadium is a multi-functional venue, which not only serves as a basketball venue during the game, but also plays an important role after the game, including the Wukesong Stadium, Wukesong Baseball Stadium, cultural and sports facilities, and supporting commercial facilities as a public service, and is an important place to meet the commercial, cultural, sports and leisure needs of residents in the western community of Beijing.

Nearly 20,000 spectators took turns to enter the stadium in one event after another.

The U.S. team played and was well received.

Today, with the success of the NBA's internationalization strategy, many of the fans present are actually more fans of the American Dream Eight stars, such as Kobe, James, Iverson and other players.

Subsequently, the Chinese team also warmed up, and the cheers were even louder, after all, there were more parents and villagers at home.

There were also some basketball fans from the United States in the stands, holding American flags and painting their faces with the Dream Team's oil paint, and cheering loudly.

When Wang entered the arena tomorrow, he immediately gave him a close-up, causing a commotion in the audience.

Iverson looked left and right, saw Wang Mingming, his eyes lit up, and he immediately ran to say hello.

"Hey, coach."

Iverson opened his arms, and Wang Mingming hugged him gently.

"I'm finally back in China, the fans here are so enthusiastic, and I love the atmosphere of your hometown." Iverson spoke very quickly, and he was very happy to see Wang Mingming, who he trusted and favored from a distance of thousands of miles.

Wang Tomorrow made a joke about Iverson,

"Allen, if I take a closer look, you've become the oldest player on the Dream Team."

"Nonsense," Iverson was anxious, "it's clear that this little old man Jason Kidd is two years older than me, coach, and your vision is too bad." ”

"Really?" Wang Tomorrow laughed and was noncommittal.

"Coach, you are determined to lose today, you can rest assured, I will win a little less and save a little face for you." Iverson secretly raised his palm, blocked it and said to Wang Mingming.

Wang Mingming: "Okay, go back and help me talk to Kobe and LeBron." ”

After a brief warm-up session, the two sides returned to their respective benches and then took to the pitch with a high-five from the manager and then a high-five from the players, a pre-match ritual that marked a friendly game.

The head coach of the U.S. men's basketball team is Coach K, a prestigious college coach, and K. saw Wang Tomorrow and nodded with a smile.

Wang Mingming's championship in this year's playoffs is extremely golden, defeating the Celtics and Spurs, each of which is a historical-level powerhouse, so Wang Mingming has been recognized by many coaches.

Lao K obviously also admires this rising star, and it is the first time he has encountered such a rapid rise in the coaching field.

Wang Mingming also high-fived Kobe, James and others one by one.

This year, except for Boozer of the Jazz team who reached the Eastern and Western finals to participate in the Olympics, it was Iverson, and no one from the other Spurs and Celtics participated in the Olympic trials.

Therefore, the members of the Dream Eight team are the 22233 formation.

C: Howard, Bosh

PF: Carmelo Anthony, Boozer

SF: James, Prince

SG: Kobe, Wade, Reed

PG: Iverson, Paul, Kidd

Bosh is obviously a big forward, but he can only play the No. 5 position, Anthony is obviously a small forward, but he plays the No. 4 position, the U.S. team is missing inside, but the outside players are blowout.

Iverson didn't make the dream eight, and the starting point guard should be Chris Paul, but Iverson later won the championship, regained his strength, and participated in the Olympics, Paul could only play as a substitute, and the status of the two was different.

Dream Eight starters: Iverson, Kobe, James, Anthony and Howard.

On the other side, the Chinese team's starters: Liu Wei, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming.

Yao Ming stood in the middle circle and was about to jump the ball, and Howard shook his head and looked very relaxed.

"Hey, Yao, I love Chinese noodles."

Howard opened his mouth to talk about things that had nothing to do with the game.

Yao Ming thought about it, and he didn't lose his demeanor, and said with a smile: "There are different kinds of noodles in every part of our country, if you really like to eat noodles, you can't finish eating one kind of noodles every day for 16 days." ”

"Really?" Howard's eyes lit up.

The referee comes on the court with a basketball in his hand.

Amid the cheers of the fans, he blew the whistle, and Yao Ming and Howard jumped at the same time.

"Whoosh~"

Like a spring, Howard flexes his graceful muscles and well-developed Superman bounce in front of the world's fans.

"Oh, Howard jumped so high!"

Zhang Weiping's unique pronunciation tone sounded, and he subconsciously admired.

"I don't know what tactics Coach Wang Ming has arranged, indeed, facing a team like the American Dream Team, no matter what team it is, the pressure will be very high."

Iverson advanced with the ball, he was just a regular speed, but in Liu Wei's eyes, it was like a lightning speed.

Theoretically, Sun Yue, who should be stronger, should be the starter, but Iverson is too good at small and big, Wang will think twice about it tomorrow, and he still chooses Liu Wei to start at the beginning.

Liu Wei reluctantly followed Iverson through the half, and Iverson suddenly made a sudden stop, and the crotch dribbled and exchanged to the left hand.

At the same time, he stretched out his hand and shouted loudly to direct his teammates to run.

The dream team does not have an absolute main point of attack, almost all players are attack points, Kobe Bryant came out to receive the ball, directly threatened to hold the ball heads-up, shook it a little, and walked along the bottom line.

Wang Shipeng felt as if he was defending Xu Yong in a trance, and reacted quickly.

Kobe Bryant took a step forward and made a backward jumper, Wang Shipeng tried his best to interfere, and the rhythm was right.

"Bell~"

Deviation, Yao Ming stuck with Howard, Yi Jian United and Anthony in the opposite position, thanks to FIBA's rule of not defending for three seconds, stood on the inside line early, took the lead in occupying favorable terrain, jumped up and grabbed the rebound.

Liu Wei advances with the ball.

"Pick-and-roll?" Lao K felt that the Chinese team would definitely block and dismantle, and the U.S. team adopted the tactics of defending Yao Ming around the front, not blocking and dismantling, first, the Chinese team's defenders were not aggressive, and second, Yao Ming couldn't receive the ball.

Liu Wei and Yao Ming glanced at each other, and Yao Ming stood outside the three-point line, pretending to block and dismantle.

The moment before the block was formed, Liu Wei's eyes flashed, and he jumped directly into a very beautiful through ball.

Give it to Yao Ming, who is going down!

Yao Ming actually went down?

The glasses of the basketball expert were shattered.......
