The strongest duo!

After the quarter-finals between the Chinese team and the French team, this topic was used as a front-page headline by many media.

In the men's basketball arena of this Olympic Games, there are actually many combinations of strong players and bull forks. But which of them is the strongest pair? The answer to this question is divided.

Needless to say, the U.S. team is at least the main starting level for every position, from starters to substitutes, and any team that plays at any time. If it is some middle and lower teams, as long as they get any one of the American teams, they may instantly transform and become spoilers in the knockout stage.

But if you want to talk about the real duo, LeBron on the American team must be counted as one, and the other candidate, in terms of fame, should be Kobe, in terms of tacit understanding and game style, Anthony and Durant are all candidates to choose from.

Spain must be the big and small Gasol brothers, even if the American team comes, the inside line will be hammered by these two guys.

In addition, France's Parker and Batum, Australia's Mills and Anderson, Argentina's Ginobili and Scola, Lithuania's Jascovisius and Kreza, Brazil's Barbossa and **, Britain's Ruerdeng and Sullivan, Russia's Sheved and Kirilenko, these names are all well-known figures in the international arena.

"If you take into account the positional physiognomy and the technical characteristics of the players with each other, aside from the all-star American team, Ginobili and Scola, Jascovitius and Kreza, Barbosa and **, Sheved and Kirilenko, these four pairs are enough to qualify for the title of the strongest duo."

Simmons, a famous football critic who traveled to London from the United States, said: "Except for Severde and Kirilenko, the rest of the pairs are all inside and outside partners. Although Kreza's style of play is a little more outside, his body is enough to top the number four position. Everyone knows that on the basketball court, the partners of inside and outside stars are quite lethal. ”

"But it's basically an attacking lineup."

The host said: "In contrast, although the Russian combination is all outside players, Kirilenko's defensive skills, there is no problem at all to play inside, and the defense of the pair is much better, I think the Russian combination is more powerful." ”

"That's true."

Simmons nodded: "The Russian team is quite young, the players are not very famous, except for Kirilenko, they are basically new recruits." It's really eye-catching to be able to go all the way to the knockout round. ”

"In the European arena before, the performance of this Russian team is quite amazing!"

The moderator said.

"Yes, it's because they defend well."

Simmons said: "On the offensive end, Sherved is a pretty creative player, with a lot of weird shots and a lot of confidence. While there are some incomprehensible options that sometimes arise, overall, his role on the offensive end is huge. That is, the reputation is slightly weaker than the other outside lines mentioned earlier, and the role of the field is not small at all. ”

"And what about the Spanish combination? Two inside lines? ”

"Gasol is a pair that can be regarded as the league's No. 1 interior combination even if it is put in the NBA."

Simmons has a very high opinion of the Gasol brothers: "The individual strength of this pair has reached the point where it is beyond the positional phase. Just like LeBron and Kobe Bryant of the American team, no matter how well they cooperate, whether there is overlap in position, whether there is a disagreement in the style of play, as long as these two people are on the court, the deterrent has already helped the team win half of the game. ”

"So in your eyes, the strongest combination is the Gasol brothers or LeBron and Kobe?"

The moderator asked.

"Nope."

Simmons shook his head categorically and said: "The strongest duo, judging from the games so far, there is no doubt that it is the combination of the Chinese team - Chen and Gu!" ”

Eighty points.

On the screen, Chen Mu and Gu Yu appeared in the game of eliminating the French team, as well as the statistics of the two.

"Take a look at this data sheet, and see how they devastated on the field!"

Simmons looked at himself and became a little excited, and said proudly: "Looking at the history of world basketball, in the national team-level competition, in addition to the Dream Team, which team can find such a pair?" Can anyone stand up and pat their chests and say that our combination is stabilizing them?? ”

Gu Yu, 43 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, a standard scoring machine, an unstoppable scoring god.

Chen Mu, 37 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal, in the NBA, this kind of data has been jokingly called "Chen Mu data" by fans.

If in a certain game, an interior player is very powerful, playing about 25 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists, everyone may comment after the game and say that he is "Chris Webb possessed".

And if on the basis of this data, the player also got 2 blocks and 1 steal, then there is no doubt that Kevin Garnett must be back in his prime.

However, "one Chris Weber" is about "0.7 Chen Mu". "One Kevin Garnett" is basically equal to "0.8 Chen Mu".

On top of that, add another 10 points and about 5 rebounds.

That's "a Chen Mu".

"A pair of pairs, when the rest of the team's players are not enough to see on the world stage, the third-best player on the team, who is just a marginal person in the NBA, teamed up to score 80 points, 21 rebounds and 8 assists......"

When Simmons said this, an incredible look appeared on his face, and he shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: "You guys...... Have you ever seen a crazier show than this......? ”

Of course, everyone knows that the reason why Chen Mu and Gu Yu can get such terrifying data is related to the strength of the rest of the players in the Chinese team, and the ball is basically concentrated in their hands.

"So be it!"

Facing the question of ball concentration raised by the host, Simmons said: "As for the other combinations we just talked about, except for LeBron and Kobe, put the rest of the combinations into the lineup of the Chinese team, and also give them the same ball rights as Chen and Gu, who can they get this kind of data??" ”

"You must know that without Chen and Gu, the Chinese team may not even rush out of Asia, and entering the Olympics is basically the rhythm of the bottom. And with Chen, the Chinese team has hope to enter the knockout round, just like Russia, an NBA star and a marginal person, if they cooperate well, they may be able to disrupt the game. ”

As he spoke, Simmons' eyes looked at the back of Gu Yu, who was arrogantly returning all the way back to the defense in the return screen in front of him, after hitting three points.

"And with Gu, the Chinese team is the favorite ...... to win the championship!"

No one thought of it.

Before the start of the Olympic Games, no ball critic or fan, even if they were obsessed with the brain-dead fans of the Chinese team, could not have imagined it.

The Chinese team, after losing Yao Ming, can actually show such a terrifying dominance.

"Hahaha, it's so excessive! I like it!! ”

It was August 10, 2012, one day after the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games.

The semi-finals will start tomorrow.

"But that's a lot of pressure on us!"

Watching the TV, Simmons spared no effort to blow the Chinese team, and the players of the Chinese team who were resting were all smiling.

"Pressure is motivation, whoever doesn't obey will do it!"

Gu Yu shrugged, bragging with his teammates, and the live broadcast was also on, turning back and scolding JRS business from time to time.

But in my head, I was thinking about another game.

“…… So far, the Olympic semi-finals have been produced! ”

On the TV screen, Simmons's blow ended, and the host said: "The results of the quarterfinals are basically in line with the prediction of our previous expert group. The Chinese team crushed and eliminated France, Argentina relied on Scola's lethal shot at the last moment to kill Russia, Spain's inner twin towers made a comeback, and defeated Lithuania in the final quarter, and the United States team defeated Brazil with exactly the same score as the Chinese team! ”

119 to 86.

The U.S. team, which started one day later than the Chinese team, seemed to deliberately want to play against the Chinese team, and I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but it actually scored exactly the same score as the Chinese team.

Defensively, the U.S. doesn't seem to be as eye-catching as the Chinese team, but considering two factors, it's not hard to understand the result.

First of all, Brazil's strength lies in attack, and in terms of overall strength, Brazil and France seem to be evenly matched. However, the offensive tactics of the French team are relatively loose, there is almost no reasonable cooperation, and in the face of weak teams, you can pass the test by relying on your personal ability, but when you encounter a strong team, the offense is basically a paralyzed state.

The Brazilian team is different, even if the defense of the American team is serious, it is difficult to control the Brazilian team's ability to catch counterattacks throughout the game. The 86 points are not a high score for the Brazilian team, and the U.S. team has done a pretty good job on the defensive end.

Secondly, the U.S. team seems to be enjoying the game more often than not, even ...... I kind of want to try to compete with the Chinese team in attack, so I deliberately control the score. On the defensive end, their energy is relatively limited, and they are not as murderous as the Chinese team, and they are 100% committed to defense.

Combining these two points, the big victory of the American team and the slaughtering victory of the Chinese team are a level of performance.

As for the real offensive strength and defensive intensity of the American team, just look at the "London tragedy".

But what really made Gu Yu frown was not this problem.

"What's wrong?"

Finding that Gu Yu was a little silent, Chen Mu turned around and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Something is wrong."

Gu Yu frowned and said, "If you look at the statistics of the American team, something is wrong. ”
