Chapter 244: "Big Mouth" Bogut

The knockout opponent of the Chinese men's basketball team is Lithuania, which is the hidden boss of this competition. Hu even thinks they are the third-strongest team in this Olympics, yes, behind Argentina and the United States.

In the recent Champions League tournament, it was Lithuania who slaughtered Spain in the final and won the title of King of Europe.

The core of Lithuania is the Cavaliers' "big Z" Ilgoskas, the big center with four three-pointers is their overall strategy, and their three-point offense is more terrifying than the Italian cannon. Hu Qingniu still has a memory, Lithuania faced the United States team with 12 three-pointers in a single game, almost pulling the United States team down.

The Chinese men's basketball team was defeated by the powerful outside three-point firepower on the opposite side, and the closer to the basket, the higher the scoring efficiency. Especially in the international arena, the three-point line is close, and many sharpshooters shoot about 80% of the three-point shooting rate in open positions, so teams like Lithuania can play against the sky with only three points.

Da Yao and Da Zhi were powerless, but this time, the Chinese men's basketball team broke through their best results. They will next face their old rivals Australia for fifth place. For the Chinese team, the fifth place is also a must, and the progress of each ranking is the precipitation of Chinese basketball in the past ten years.

From cultivating talents to improving the system, countless Chinese basketball people have followed one after another, and countless basketball hopefuls who have entered the junior sports school like Yao Ming have accumulated their own youth sweat all the way, and finally there are top players like Yao Ming and Dazhi.

So even if it is a fifth or sixth place qualifying match, the Chinese men's basketball team is actively preparing for the game, wanting to end their Athens Olympics with a victory.

Because there was no competition, Dazhi and Dayao even came to Hu Qingniu for advice. Of course, Hu Qingniu is sweeping the couch to greet him, his view of the men's basketball team is to help if he can, and he will not worry about the men's basketball team's good results this year, so he has always been led by foreign coaches. Producing results is the right way, and what other worries are false, worrying that newcomers will give up the existing world competition if they don't get training? Hu Qingniu doesn't know who spread these crooked theories, and the basketball commentator must have some responsibility.

In Hu Qingniu's view, competitive sports are about playing and winning, without so many twists and turns.

The Australian team is a very physical team, and their current leader is Andrew Bogut, a talented center who will land in the NBA next year.

If the Argentines were born with the bravery of the Pampas, the Australians retain in their bones the savagery of the pioneers of the New World.

Not only are Australians very confrontational on the world stage, but it is not intentional to use their bodies to scare people from other countries in the world. In the Australian domestic league, the referees even acquiesced to the elbow and hug movements between players. The Australians have spared no effort to scare their talents at home, and they have been somewhat restrained on the world stage.

Bogut is worthy of being born with a big mouth, and before he entered the NBA, he announced that he was going to beat Duncan at this Olympics, although it didn't work out in the end, but the scene looked good. This time, he even made a bold statement, wanting to suppress the inner twin towers of the Chinese men's basketball team, Da Yao and Da Zhi in one fell swoop.

Of course, everyone will say that if you can really do this, Hu Qingniu can't think of it for the time being. Anyway, the current O'Neill can't do it, only an ancient giant beast like Zhang Dashuai has the possibility of discussion.

Dealing with the Chinese men's basketball team wants to open a breakthrough from the inside, which is like a joke. But when Hu Qingniu really went to watch the game, he found that Bogut was serious, and he resolutely attacked inward as soon as he started, singled Yao Ming.

In the last game, Australia and the United States team met, and Bogut didn't seem to lose much to Duncan, because Bogut was bigger and the tonnage was there, and Duncan, as a power forward, was really not easy to limit him.

But Bogut singled Yao Ming, 2.13,240 pounds of Bogut, opposite Yao Ming, 2.26 meters 26,260 pounds. And the current Yao Ming is not the stupid big man who had unbalanced upper and lower limbs and poor coordination before. The current Yao Ming's body shape is in harmony up and down, and he is very vigorous when he moves, and the speed is much faster than before.

So, Hu Qingniu saw such a picture.

Okay, Bogut leaned on Yao Ming, and it was a good opportunity to turn around and succeed at this time. Okay, we see Bogut turn around.

Three seconds later, oops, Bogut seemed to have some problems, Yao Ming behind him was too big, and no matter how hard Bogut tried, he didn't move there.

Bogut got angry and slammed his shoulder, and it worked. Hey, hey, hey, the hat flew away, and everyone was photographed on the billboard outside the venue.

Look at the referee, the referee signaled that the game continued without a foul.

......

Another round.

Bogut is back, and there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb. Bogut is not a man who gives up easily.

As the saying goes, what is easy to achieve, that is not a dream. If you give it up lightly, that's not a promise. If you want to succeed, you have to dare to challenge, and only with dreams can you have a better tomorrow!

Ready to go, Bogut once again challenged the hegemony of Yao Mingdi in the low position without fear.

Well, what we see is Andrew Bogut, the core of the Australian men's basketball team, who is a talented center.

This time, Bogut gave up on the strategy of hand-to-hand combat with Yao Ming in the low post, and he opened up the space, obviously to compete with Yao Ming in footwork skills.

I have to admit that Bogut's footwork is very skillful, and for an 18-year-old center, such footwork skills are commendable.

Look at Yao Ming on the other side, he was all stunned, and he didn't move there like a stake.

It's not good, Bogut is in the middle of the plan, if the other side is completely unmoved, the genius center Bogut is consuming his energy in vain. Fortunately, the clever Bogut reacted, holding the basketball with both hands like iron hoops.

Then, charge, go straight to the basket.

This trick is the legendary explosives bag basket, which is really full of momentum.

Yao Ming, the big man on the other side, was still stuck there like a stake, about to bump into, to bump into.

Who will the referee blow for a foul?

"Smack!"

Five minutes later.

Audience friends, this time the Australian basketball team's game broadcast ends here, just in the confrontation with the powerful center Yao Ming, our strongest talented center Bogut accidentally sprained his waist and has been rested, let us wish him a speedy recovery.

On August 19, 2004, the Australian men's basketball team ended its Olympic journey, and they lost to the Chinese men's basketball team, an emerging force in the Olympic Games, by 20 points.

After the game, Bogut, a talented center known as the "big mouth", said that if it weren't for the recurrence of his old waist injury today, the losing team would have been the Chinese men's basketball team.
