Chapter 625: 20 Minutes Jordan
"What the hell is this guy doing?"
Watching Meng Xu break out of the bag between himself and Andres Nocioni again, and then pass the basketball to the big man under the basket again, Ginobili was also a little stunned for a while, more than half of the first quarter of the game had passed, but Meng Xu didn't even make a shot, what Meng Xu did on the court made Ginobili a little suspicious, is this person in front of him Meng Xu? Is this still the NBA's scoring champion? Is this still the Meng Xu who is called a "shooting paranoia" by many media?
"Da Yao, well done!" After assisting Yao Ming's hook shot, Meng Xu ran over and high-fived Yao Ming to celebrate, Yao Ming's efficiency in the first quarter is too high, so far 6 shots, hit 5 goals, under Yao Ming's efficient performance, Meng Xu has already sent 7 assists before the end of the game in the first quarter, under such a great opportunity, Meng Xu simply did not shoot, and fed Yao Ming with all his might, and by the way, he also brushed up assists.
"Yao Ming's efficiency under the basket is so high, Argentina needs to change their defensive strategy, especially against Yao Ming." Looking at Yao Ming, who was overturning the river under the Argentine basket, the Greek commentators on the sidelines couldn't stand it anymore, and between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Argentine men's basketball team, the on-site commentary was obviously a little biased towards Argentina.
Although even the commentators on the scene have seen Argentina's problems, Argentina's head coach Ruben Magnano is standing on the sidelines unmoved, but the seemingly expressionless Ruben Magnano is experiencing a fierce ideological struggle in his heart at the moment, Yao Ming's outburst in the first quarter is not in Ruben Magnano's plan, according to Ruben Magnano's plan, Argentina will defend Meng Xu, the core of the Chinese men's basketball team, as long as Meng Xu can be restricted, Reduce his scoring efficiency, then Argentina will win at least half, not to mention that the Argentine men's basketball team also has Ginobili and Luis Scola, the two players ranked in the top five in the scoring list of this Olympic Games, but Yao Ming's efficient performance in the first quarter of the game disrupted Ruben Magnano's plan, although Meng Xu did not score 1 point in the first quarter under the defense of Ginobili and Andrés Nocioni, but the Chinese men's basketball team is now 19-14, leading Argentina by as many as 5 points, the big man of the Chinese men's basketball teamHe scored 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line in the first eight minutes of the first quarter.
After hesitating for a long time, Ruben Magnano still didn't make a choice, as a head coach of the NBA who often pays attention, Ruben Magnano is very aware of Meng Xu's threat, so in Ruben Magnano's heart, he is very worried that once Argentina relaxes its defense against Meng Xu and shifts its main defensive attention to Yao Ming's side, Meng Xu will suddenly burst out. Not only will it not change the current unfavorable situation on the field, but the result will be self-defeating.
In the end, Argentina still did not make any adjustments, allowing Yao Ming to kill all sides under the basket, and by the end of the first quarter, 26-18, the lead of the Chinese men's basketball team had reached 8 points.
At the end of the first quarter of the game, Argentina led by 8 points, such a start was a dream start for the Chinese men's basketball team, because of the huge lead, so at the beginning of the second quarter of the game, Jiang Quan replaced the full bench lineup led by Battle, ready to let the main lineup that played the first quarter be able to rest for a few more minutes.
Different from the full bench lineup of the Huaguo men's basketball team, the Argentine men's basketball team, which was behind in the score, sent two main players, Ginobili and Juan Sanchez, ready to let the two of them take the bench lineup and chase a wave of points while the main players of the Huaguo men's basketball team are off the court.
"Today I must defeat you, defeat you." Walking back on the court, he glanced at Meng Xu, who was sitting on the bench and chatting with his teammates with laughter, Ginobili said secretly. In the history of the Argentine men's basketball team, it has never been touched by the honor of international competitions, and even the Olympic finals are the first time today, so countless Argentine fans are eagerly looking forward to these young men being able to create miracles and create history, and as the protagonists, they have an extremely strong desire to win.
Because of Meng Xu's rest, Ginobili's task now is much simpler, and Ginobili now has only one goal, and that is to attack, that is, to score, to keep attacking, to keep scoring.
The main players got off the court, without Meng Xu and Yao Ming, one inside and one outside, Ginobili was like a dragon entering the sea, showing his skills on the court, the inside combination of Battle and Moko was like a void in front of Ginobili, and for several rounds in a row, Ginobili rushed straight to the basket, and put the basketball into the basket in front of Battle and Moko.
Only 2 minutes after the opening of the second quarter, the difference between the two sides was narrowed from 8 points to only 4 points, in desperation, Jiang Quan had to call a timeout in advance and replaced Meng Xu and Wang Zhizhi, but Ginobili is not so easy to control, although Ginobili is now only emerging in the NBA, but for Ginobili, Meng Xu does not dare to have any contempt, because in the future, Ginobili will have a nickname, that is, "20 minutes Jordan", Although this nickname may be exaggerated, it shows Ginobili's good ability.
And today's game, that's the case, after the start of the second quarter of the game, Ginobili was like taking CHUN medicine, unstoppable, several attacks in a row, obviously Meng Xu had predicted Ginobili's next move in advance, and responded in advance, but in the end it was slipped away by Ginobili.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Ginobili's offensive efficiency was simply scary, but as time went by, Ginobili's shortcomings in physical strength gradually revealed, after getting rid of Meng Xu and breaking into the inside score of the Chinese men's basketball team, Ginobili, who consumed a lot of physical strength, began to gradually decline in the efficiency of the offensive end, and at the end of the second quarter, Ginobili even had two consecutive shots that were short, but even so, relying on Ginobili's excellent performance in the second quarter, At the end of the half, the Argentine men's basketball team still narrowed the gap to only one point.
