Chapter 185: The Incredible Race (Second Update!) )
The Chinese team's attack, Sun Yue dribbled the ball past half the court, and still handed the ball to Yao Ming.
With the experience of the previous round, the U.S. team was significantly more focused on the defensive end, and the Chinese team failed to block and dismantle several times.
More than half of the attack time, but the Chinese team was not in a hurry.
Sun Yue continued to direct his teammates to run on the outside, and at the same time, Yao Ming also turned his back to Howard and began to use his footsteps to kill inside.
In the NBA, Yao Ming had a big advantage over Howard, and that hasn't changed at all on the international stage.
After a series of footwork shaking, Howard was shaken a little out of position.
James on the weak side ran directly over to help defend.
Yao Ming approached the basket, and James and Howard had formed a pinch momentum.
But at this moment, Yao Ming slammed the ball to the outside.
Zhu Fangyu appeared at the end of Yao Ming's pass at this time, a big vacancy!
Although the U.S. team picked up the focus, because of the short run-in time and insufficient communication on the defensive end, James came to help defend the ball, and others did not make up for it at the first time.
Catch the ball, aim at the basket, shoot.
"Huh!"
With a crisp sound, Zhu Fangyu's three-point shot also scored!
"Beautiful!" Zhang Weiping, who was in the commentary seat, couldn't help shouting.
It's really beautiful!
In the past, even if Yao Ming was in the national team, others were more waiting to shoot three points, but just after this ball, even if the offensive time was more than halfway, even if Yao Ming passed Howard, other points did not stop running.
The ball arrives, and the open position is three.
The cheers at the scene exploded directly.
The Chinese team opened with a wave of 6-0 against the American team!
This is different from the Chinese team in their memory, but it is exactly the same as the Chinese team they expected!
"Magic! This Chinese team was magically cast by Tang Tian! ESPN is also broadcasting this game, and Miller couldn't help but exclaim after watching the performance of the Chinese team in the first two legs.
Tang Tian's ability as a coach is excellent, which is recognized by everyone, but it is also a reality that the Rockets themselves are strong.
It's just that they seem to have underestimated Tang Tian's excellence, and they were able to train the weak Chinese team like this!
It's a god.
The U.S. team's offense, Kidd motioned for Kobe Bryant to drop into position, and then handed the ball over.
It was Wang Shipeng who defended Kobe, and there was no bag.
Kobe Bryant glanced at the defense behind him, took two steps directly against Wang Shipeng, and then turned around and leaned back to shoot.
Wang Shipeng's interference was limited, and Kobe Bryant's ball was firmly in the frame.
The U.S. team broke the scoring drought.
"Tactically!" Tang Tian walked to the sidelines at this time and clapped his hands and shouted to the players.
The Chinese team's offense, Yao Ming sent a second pass again, Wang Shipeng got a three-point opportunity, but James's help defense blocked his shot, and the ball went out of the basket.
The offense of the American team, James hit Zhu Fangyu in the low post, and the shot caused the latter's beater to foul.
One of two free throws was made, and the U.S. continued to score points.
The Chinese team's offense, Yao Ming hit Howard one, and the small hook scored.
The U.S. team came over, and Kobe Bryant hit a three-point shot from the outside line against Wang Shipeng.
The two sides fought back and forth, and the cheers on the scene were also one after another.
After more than half a quarter, the Chinese team even led the American team by 1 point 12-11!
"It's a god!" Zhang Weiping saw the situation on the field, and he who had watched the ball for decades could be regarded as refreshing his cognition.
"One thing I found was that the U.S. team's offense seemed to be much worse than before, and I couldn't see the coordination at all." Xu Jicheng was also very excited, but in addition to the excitement, he discovered some details on the court.
"This is where Tang Tian is powerful." Zhang Weiping has watched football for decades and has a sharp eye.
Xu Jicheng turned his head suspiciously.
"You see, no matter who the American team plays, the Chinese team is one-on-one, even if it can't be prevented, it won't be trapped, so although it will lose a lot of points, it will strangle the cooperation of the American team, plus the Chinese team feels good in the first quarter, the American team can't attack quickly, and the offense is naturally poor."
Xu Jicheng listened and watched, it was really like this.
Now, even if he was just a commentator on the sidelines, he felt Tang Tian's existence.
Commenting on a basketball game feels not only the players, but also the coaches.
This is just like what Zhang Weiping said, it is really a god.
The game continued, and at this moment, the Chinese team made substitution adjustments first, Tang Tian replaced Wang Shipeng, Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue with Liu Wei, Wang Zhizhi and Li Nan.
There were substitutions in the middle of the game, and it was still in the stalemate stage, Tang Tian's adjustment was shocking.
But when the substitute came in and played for a while, the fans' hearts were settled.
This fight, except for the slow pace of the offense, it doesn't seem to have changed much!
From the interruption of the first quarter to the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team was 25-27, only 2 points behind the American team!
Tang Tian nodded with satisfaction, it seemed that his train of thought was right.
System basketball, as long as Yao Ming is there, the execution of others on the court is in place, the offense can be opened, and everyone has the power to fight.
In this section, the Chinese team felt excellent, and they were stunned to play with the American team.
In the second quarter, the Chinese team made substitution adjustments, Tang Tian replaced Yao Ming with Wang Zhizhi and then replaced Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue on the court.
The U.S. team came down in the morning for five days, with five starters playing the first quarter and five substitutes in the second quarter.
"Queen Bee" Chris Paul, "The Flash" Wade, "Little Prince" Prince, "Dragon King" Bosh, Carlos Boozer all appeared.
"Now is the time to really test the Chinese team." Zhang Weiping said in a serious tone.
The U.S. team is strong, not only in his starters, but also on his bench.
In other countries, it is already unremarkable to have two or three NBA-level players, but the United States team has 12 NBA All-Star level players, not to mention that this Dream Eight team has sent almost the strongest 12-man team in the NBA for shame.
Even if you can withstand half a quarter, the substitute in the second quarter will either fight for his life, or he will only be beaten.
Paul advanced to the front court with the ball, and Paul and Boozer played a pick-and-roll.
Boozer and DeLong's pick-and-roll is the Jazz's magic weapon to dominate the West, and in fact, Paul's pick-and-roll ability is even better than Delon's.
One block, one dismantle, Paul accelerated past Yi Jianlian and scored a quick layup.
Yi Jianlian judged it, but he couldn't keep up with the pace at all, so he could only watch Paul score.
The Chinese team's offense, without Yao Ming, Tang Tian used Wang Zhizhi as Yao Ming at this time, carrying Bosh on his back in a high position and waiting for an opportunity to pass or attack.
Because Wang Zhizhi's offensive threat was far inferior to Yao Ming, the other players began to cut the basket more often.
At this time, Sun Yue accelerated and rushed to the basket, and Wang Zhizhi handed the ball over.
Sun Yue took the ball, took three steps, and jumped up towards the basket.
