In the second half, Greece's Spanoulis had scored 23 points, all on Marbury's head.

But Hu Qingniu glanced at the U.S. bench and found that Larry Brown was still smiling. Hu Qingniu thought in his heart, this old man, wouldn't he be overjoyed to win the championship, he didn't look at such an obvious bad defense, according to the previous Larry Brown, he should have jumped up and scolded angrily.

Larry Brown's philosophy is not that it doesn't matter if you can't score, whoever lets the opponent score will be scolded miserably? Hu Qingniu shook his head, whatever, fortunately he didn't go to be an assistant coach of the U.S. team.

The U.S. team quickly won the game, and all the problems and contradictions were insignificant under the cover of victory.

Although the Olympics are a world gathering once every four years, they are actually only two weeks old, and the competition time is full and the competition process is very fast.

Inadvertently, it was discovered that Argentina had won four consecutive victories against China, New Zealand, Serbia and Montenegro and Italy, and that the four teams, including the strong Chinese team and the former world champion Serbia and Montenegro did not pose any threat to the Argentine team. Hu Qingniu and his Argentine men's basketball team won easily along the way.

Correspondingly, the U.S. team has also won 4 consecutive wins in Group B, and the two teams are secretly competing, you have won a game today, then I will win a game and surpass my opponent by 20 points.

However, in the last game of the group stage, the tough battle of the Argentine team came. The next opponent is the mighty Matador legion, the Spanish team.

In Group A, the Chinese team is currently only in third place, with two wins and two losses, in addition to losing to Argentina and losing to Spain.

The Spanish team unexpectedly lost to the weak New Zealand team, otherwise they would have won 4 in a row, facing China, Serbia and Montenegro and Italy, Spain won easily, this year's Olympic Games, the strongest in the European team should be Spain and Lithuania.

Lithuania are the champions of the European Championship in '03 and are currently second in Group B with 3 wins and 1 loss.

The Spanish team is led by Pau Gasol, who is gradually entering the peak. Historically, Gasol has been voted the best player in the FIBA international arena by the American media.

On the world stage, Gasol has won 8 medals, 7 best teams, and two tournament MVPs. This is an unprecedented achievement.

Why Gasol is stronger on the international stage than the NBA, here's why.

BA plays 48 minutes per game, BA plays 82 regular season games in a season, and there are also playoffs, all of which are high-intensity and high-hardness games, often back-to-back, which is not conducive to Gasol's technical flow to maintain physical fitness. The intensity of FIBA competitions is much smaller.

The second is that FIBA is completely based on Gasol as the core. Gasol is the absolute core of the Spanish team, responsible for attacking and doing everything, and this system makes him a fish in water. In the NBA, except for the Grizzlies career, the rest of the time can only be the second and third masters, and the lack of ball possession affects their play.

The third is that FIBA is beneficial to Gasol's offense. Gasol, who was once nicknamed a soft egg in the NBA, was mainly because of his poor performance in the face of some strong teams with strong strength and explosiveness, and fast moving black and rough hard. In FIBA, there are not so many black and rough hard, and in the Europa League, World Championships and the Olympics, there are a lot of big white bears, and the slow-moving big white bears are Gasol's dish.

Gasol's fast pace and accurate jump shots in the low post when he was single, the big white bear couldn't keep up. In addition, the FIBA three-point line is very short, and it can only be counted as two points from a distance in the NBA, and Gasol can't shoot three-pointers in the NBA, but he can shoot three-pointers in FIBA, which makes Gasol rub off points and at the same time enhances Gasol's threat of high-level strategy.

Fourth, FIBA is also good for Gasol's defense. FIBA does not defend for three seconds, and Gasol can stay in the three-second zone for a long time, which can not only limit the opponent's scoring in the penalty area, but also greatly save Gasol's energy.

Spain's long-term success in the international arena is dependent on Gasol's support, on the other hand, Spaniards Gasol Jr. and Ibaka, who also played well in the NBA, came to the international arena but were far less powerful than Gasol.

In fact, Yao Ming and Dazhi are the same, stars like them will play a stronger role in the international arena than in the NBA, but Dazhi has not reached its peak in history. The Sydney Olympics in 00 was already strong to lead the Olympic quarterfinals alone, but Dazhi, who was in his early 20s at the time, obviously did not reach his peak. After coming back from the NBA in 06, there was no ball for several years, and Dazhi's strength did not rise but declined, although there was also a magical performance like Spain in 08, but that was not the norm.

And Yao Ming fell too quickly, who can believe that as the champion of 02, he will retire in the same year as the champion of '92, and he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in the same year. Until Yao Ming was inducted into the Hall of Fame, he was only 36 years old, he should not stand on the podium of the Hall of Fame at this age, he should still belong to the arena.

Now that Yao Ming and Dazhi are under the care of Hu Qingniu, it is no surprise that the Chinese twin towers can run rampant on the international stage until the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil. By that time, Dazhi was 39 years old and Yao Ming was 36 years old.

Before the game with Spain, Hu Qingniu cautiously held a meeting with the whole team, especially Nocioni and Sanchez, who were named by him. Recently, the Argentine men's basketball team has been in the limelight too strongly, and the players can't help but feel a little fluttery, feeling that the opponent is too far behind them, and there is only the American Dream Team in their eyes.

Especially Nocioni and Sanchez, Hu Qingniu has seen them magnify with the media more than once. It's good to have faith, but it's a joke to capsize in the gutter.

Spain's book strength is not weaker than Argentina's, and the opponent's top card is still a strong inside, if Gasol suppresses Argentina's inside scoring point Scola, this game will be really difficult to say.

For this reason, Hu Qingniu specially told Scola to fight more resolutely and seek more shots after physical confrontation. Gasol's weakness is soft to put it bluntly, nothing else, Gasol's height and arm span are much better than Scola's. If it weren't for the physical confrontation, Scola would have been defeated.

In addition to Scola's need to seek more physical confrontation, Hu Qingniu also arranged for Nosionido to use the vacancy to cut in, aiming at Gasol, not seeking to score, the main purpose is to cause his fouls, the number of fouls in the international arena is only 5, if Gasol accidentally fouls a few more times, Spain will be finished.

As for the back line, Spain's outside defense is not as good as the inside line as a whole, Hu Qingniu put Montecchia, who has excellent offensive ability, to the starter, and when the time comes, he can improve his speed and be able to beat the opposite outside line into a sieve.
