Chapter 106: Croatia

In the previous game, although each opponent has a different strongman, there is no real strong player who can be opposed to Lu Xiaofeng. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

DeLong is still too young to have the strong body of the future, let alone those inexplicable signature stunts.

Bari Asia is short, although he is very powerful, but he is not on par with Lu Xiaofeng.

Kreza is the same, he doesn't need Lu Xiaofeng to defend, and he can't defend against Lu Xiaofeng.

Australia is dominated by Bogut, and although their No. 9 is not bad, it was preemptively beaten down by Lu Xiaofeng, and it did not pose a threat at all.

Now it's finally time to meet your opponent.

Croatia also has twin stars like the Chinese team, but it is still in the same position.

Their No. 11 power forward Pasalic averaged 18.3 points and 14.3 rebounds per game in the previous games, both inside and outside, and even the most accurate three-point point in the team, compared to Yi Jianlian.

And their other leader is No. 10 guard Wookic, who is 1.96 meters tall, but still plays as a playmaker, and now averages 20 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 3 steals per game.

Isn't it very similar to Lu Xiaofeng?

It's just a data-weakened version of Lu Xiaofeng!

In the next game, Lu Xiaofeng is going to face him head-on.

"Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles."

When it comes to the honor of the national team, Lu Xiaofeng cares very much about winning or losing, and he stopped playing two days before the game, constantly studying the information of Wukic found by the coaches and watching the video of his game.

Wookic is about the same height as him and looks a little thinner than him.

Judging from the previous games, he likes to play blocking and dismantling with Pasalic, either rushing in by himself, or shooting directly for threes, and if he clamps him, he will pass the ball, and there is almost no weakness.

Probably the only downside is that there are a bit more three-point shots, and the shooting percentage is not particularly high, less than 35%.

However, Pasalic's ability to grab rebounds in the front court is particularly strong, which almost makes up for Wookic's shortcomings, which may be why they can reach the final four.

On the afternoon of the 18th, the Chinese team continued to train in the nearby university basketball hall.

As soon as I walked out of the hotel gate, I was surrounded.

Looking at the Chinese faces carrying long guns and short cannons, the team members were stunned.

They knew that CCTV Sports was broadcasting their game live, but there was no reporter to interview them before!

Greece is too far away from China, and the key is that there are no direct planes, so it takes nearly 20 hours to fly from China to Greece.

In addition, the World Youth Championships is not a competition of the Olympic Games after all, although because of SARS, the attention in China is very high, but except for Sina, Sohu, NetEase, Tencent and other portals to write a little war report, other media are reprinting the news, and they are not ready to send reporters to interview on the spot.

But now the national youth team is marching forward, winning all the way, and seeing that they have entered the semi-finals, they are about to attack the championship.

Even if you can't win the championship, if you can get a card, it's a record!

When has Chinese basketball been so good?

The Basketball Association's response has been one step slower than that of the media, as early as when the Chinese team defeated Lithuania and the semi-finals were in sight, the domestic media were ready to send reporters.

When the Chinese team defeated Australia, the reporters set off overnight, how could Chinese basketball miss the semifinals in the World Series?

"Coach Wu, are you confident in tomorrow's game?"

"Lu Xiaofeng, when are you going to play professionally?"

"May I ask those two beautiful fans who come to the scene to watch the game every time, what does it have to do with you, is it your girlfriend?"

"Yi Jianlian ,......"

……

Regardless of the staff reaching out to stop them, the reporters asked themselves.

The team leader hurriedly stood up.

"Excuse me, let's go, we're going to train now, and it's not convenient to be interviewed for the time being."

"This leader, is there a press conference?"

"When can I be interviewed?"

……

The reporters swarmed up again.

"Please wait for news!"

The team leader did not answer the reporters' questions, and signaled the team members to hurry up and get into the car.

"Concentrate on training! Concentrate on the game! No one is allowed to be interviewed without the consent of their superiors! ”

The team leader got into the car and gave the team members a vaccination.

The all-pervasive reporters found the Zhao Yuwei sisters who went out sightseeing.

A crowd gathered around again.

"May I ask you are the 'sister flower fans' circulating on the Internet?"

"Are you sisters?"

"What do you have to do with Lu Xiaofeng?"

……

Compared with Ye Yufei's stunned and helpless, Zhao Yuwei, as a colleague, is generous.

Zhao Yuwei took Ye Yufei's hand, gave her a comforting look, and said to the reporter:

"We are all fans of the Chinese team, and we are also fans of Lu Xiaofeng!"

"We are all family members of Lu Xiaofeng!"

Of course, the reporters were not satisfied with her answer, and a female reporter especially gossiped:

"May I ask what is your relationship with Lu Xiaofeng? Is it his girlfriend? ”

Zhao Yuwei smiled slightly, ignored her question, and continued:

"Thank you for your attention to Lu Xiaofeng, see you tomorrow night!"

After speaking, he took Ye Yufei back to the hotel, and hurriedly signaled the security guard to stop the reporter.

Seeing the madness of the reporters, Lu Guoqing and the others didn't dare to leave from the main entrance of the hotel, and they all wore sunglasses when they went out.

The conspicuous two sisters didn't dare to go out, so they could only stay in the hotel.

"The nasty laughing wind, we can't go out!"

Ye Yufei returned to the room and complained.

"Huh! I see you have a beautiful heart! ”

Zhao Yuwei saw through her mind at a glance, and said that she hated it, but in her heart she was actually very proud of Lu Xiaofeng's dazzling.

"Where?!"

After two days of rest, the tired players have adjusted, and Tang Zhengdong had a little contusion on his palm in the previous game, and he was basically fine.

The semi-finals between the Chinese team and the Croatian team are scheduled at 7 p.m. in the local prime time, and it is still the Alexandra Marathon Arena in the city center.

Because it was Friday, it was evening, and it was the semi-finals, the stadium was finally full.

Lu Guoqing and his entourage were still in that familiar position, just behind the technical table, the best position to watch the game, and when they saw the Chinese team entering, the Ye Yufei sisters all stood up and waved the small national flag in their hands to say hello.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at it, and there were sparse red national flags in other places in the audience, I don't know if it was a local student, a tourist, or a reporter.

Of course, the press booths under the baskets on both sides were full of photojournalists.

Lu Xiaofeng was also excited, and couldn't help but dunk two baskets when he was warming up, which attracted the photographers under the basket to take pictures with a "click".

The race has finally begun.

Except for No. 10 Wookic, who is opposite Lu Xiaofeng, the other two outside lines of the opponent are more than two meters.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team is Tang Zhengdong, Yi Jianlian, Wang Lei, Zhao Hongxiang and Lu Xiaofeng.

Yi Jianlian and the opponent's No. 7 center jumped the ball, and with his height, arm span and excellent jumping, he won the jump ball again.

Lu Xiaofeng took the ball and saw that No. 10 Wookic was already back on the three-point line, lowering his center of gravity and staring at him.

motioned to Tang Zhengdong to cover, but Lu Xiaofeng couldn't get rid of Wu Kiqi at once, he quickly bypassed Tang Zhengdong and followed.

Lu Xiaofeng saw it, dribbled back again, waved Tang Zhengdong to enter the position, and brought back the No. 7 who came out.

Seeing that Wokic was guarding his right hand and putting his left hand, Lu Xiaofeng was not polite, he accelerated, handed the ball to his left hand, and rushed inside, he knew that Wakich wanted to drive him to the center.

But after he dribbled the ball with his left hand into the three-point line, he suddenly made a 360-degree spin against Wookic.

Lu Xiaofeng turned around and was already in front of Wukic's right side, dribbling with his right hand and taking a step forward, he was about to jump and shoot.

No. 11 Pasalic, who has long hair, certainly won't let him score so easily, and is ready to block his shot one step forward.

Lu Xiaofeng shook his right hand, and the basketball flew under Passalić's armpit, Yi Jianlian was already ready, and catching the ball was a layup.

The Chinese team took the lead with two points.

2:0。

When it's Croatia's turn to attack, how will they play?
