Time flies, the training in July is over, and the competition in August is coming.

The grouping of the men's basketball team for the Olympic Games has been decided, with Group A consisting of Argentina, Australia, Iran, Lithuania, Russia and Croatia.

Group B is Angola, China, Spain, the United States, Greece and Germany.

As soon as the grouping situation was announced by the media, it attracted a miserable cry from Chinese fans, Group B, this is simply a group of death.

Some fans analyzed on the Internet that for the Chinese men's basketball team, such a draw group is undoubtedly bad news, and among the five opponents in the same group, it is extremely difficult to defeat any team except Angola.

Originally, the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team was difficult to gain the upper hand compared to Germany, but now due to the addition of Los Angeles Clippers center Chris Carman, the strength of the German team has been further enhanced, and it will be very difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to defeat the German team led by two NBA stars.

At present, in Group B, the Chinese men's basketball team is only one Angolan team that is sure to beat, and once it misses against the German team, then the Chinese men's basketball team is likely to miss the quarterfinals.

Yang Hui, who turned to Sina's "Li Hei", published an article claiming that the Chinese men's basketball team had missed the quarterfinals.

Such a statement made him scolded, but reading his article carefully, many fans also admitted in their hearts the unfavorable situation of the Chinese team.

Li Zhi had expected such a situation, and he hoped that the draw situation could be changed, but after seeing the results, he could only accept his fate.

The Chinese team apparently drew the next draw. The overall strength of the star-studded American "Dream Eight Team" and the world champion Spanish team is several grades higher than that of the Chinese team, and although the Chinese team, which relies on individual stars to play, has the advantage of playing at home, it is certainly not the opponent of European teams and American teams with high tactical literacy.

Even in the face of the African champion Angolan team, the Chinese team is not sure of victory.

The American "Dream Eight Team" led by the little emperor "LeBron James" and the NBA's new regular season MVP Kobe Bryant has reunited the NBA's biggest and top stars, aiming to avenge the Athens Olympics and justify the title of basketball dream team. They have only one goal – to be an Olympic champion.

However, judging from the performance of the previous Americas qualifiers, the Copa America, the Dream Eight team is not invincible, and their interior line still has obvious flaws.

The U.S. lacks talented big men, with Dwight Howard, Elton Brand and Amar Stoudemire generally under-height as centers, and Tyson Chandler, the No. 1 tallest man on the Dream Team, who can only defend, not attack. Because of this, Argentina's Rockets Luis Scola single-handedly blew up the Dream Team's interior and stole the Copa America's Most Valuable Player trophy.

When the "NBA's best sixth man" Ginobili, the Chicago Bulls bench gangster Nocioni, the Toronto Raptors' starting point guard Delfino, the San Antonio Spurs' championship member Oberto, and the Pistons' Herman return to the national team, the game between Argentina and the United States will be more intense and will become a close match. The Chinese team is better than the American team in this regard, but the Chinese team is only better than the American team in this regard.

Fans are worried that Yao Ming is indeed a talented big man and has long been recognized as the No. 1 center in the NBA, but relying on Yao Ming's tactics alone will make it difficult for China to achieve the goal of "protecting eight and fighting six".

If Yao Ming is injured and cannot compete, China will hit a bottleneck.

Judging from the previous warm-up games, Li Zhi, who was pinned on by the fans, did not get the tactical position he deserved, and the tactics that Younas would formulate made the Chinese team's style of play more integrated, but it made it difficult for Li Zhi on the outside to play the role of a sharp knife.

On August 10, Beijing time, this is the first day of competition in the Olympic Games, and the Chinese team also ushered in its first opponent and the strongest opponent of the Olympic Games, the United States.

With all the attention to this game, it will never be excessive, and the real situation is especially winning.

The fans of the national team are looking forward to it, they do not expect the Chinese team to defeat the United States, they just hope that the Chinese team can show everyone something new, and not be bombarded too badly under the heavy artillery of the United States.

During the day on the 8th, Germany beat Angola, Spain won particularly hard against their old enemies Greece, but still won, and in the evening, the United States and China began as the last game of the day.

Li Zhi sat with Yao Ming, Li Nan, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi and others, Yao Ming had a rare smile on his face, the media spotlight flashed in the distance, and soon a piece of news appeared.

[With a smile on his face, Yao Ming seems to be strategizing.] ]

Yao Ming's smile is not without reason, it all comes from Li Zhi, because Li Zhi hides his strength, of course, the hidden strength is only in those warm-up games, Yao Ming thinks that this is Li Zhi hiding clumsy. Not only Yao Ming, but also Yi Jianlian, Li Nan and other teammates from other countries think so.

But after Li Zhi heard Yao Ming's whisper in his ear, he smiled helplessly, and his heart ached.

"Brother, it would be nice if I hid my strength!"

The game is about to start, and the starting lineup of the American team is already standing on the court, Paul, Kobe, James, Bosh, Howard, all the best characters in all positions in the United States, even in the world, are the top five.

On the Chinese side, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Li Zhi, Sun Yue, and Liu Wei are also the five strongest people in China today.

"Lee, it's nice we met again."

James walked in and said to Li Zhi.

Seeing Li Zhi now, James is more and more annoyed that the management's operation is unfavorable, if he can trade Li Zhi early, this year's Cavaliers will definitely be able to take a step closer in the future.

"When the game starts, I won't show mercy!" James said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I won't either." Li Zhiwan said that in the face of the strongest small forward in the world, this is the time to test the strength of his defense.

Since obtaining Artest's defensive skills, Li Zhi's defense has been guaranteed to A+, and the strongest defense in the NBA is not an exaggeration, but Li Zhi has not found a decent opponent to test his defense before, and now facing James, it is a good opportunity.

James left, Kobe, Howard, Paul, Bosh and others also exchanged a few words with Li Zhi, all of whom were mixed in the NBA, and they were very optimistic about Li Zhi, a rising star.

Witnessing Li Zhi's treatment, Sun Yue, who also started the game, was extremely envious, he also went to the NBA this year, and it was Kobe's Lakers, I don't know if I will be like Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was recognized by several NBA bigwigs, and the Chinese fans on the sidelines cheered, as if it was himself and the country that was recognized.
