Chapter 101: Stankovic Cup
On the basketball court, Li Hai directly pushed Sun Yue, who was defending him, with one hand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Sun Yue is a defender, he is tall and has long arms and is also very flexible, and he is responsible for defending Li Hai in confrontation training, and he has been abused almost thousands of times.
"Brother Li, you can't put a little water, we are all newcomers to the national team and need to help each other." Sun Yue jokingly spat bitter water.
Zhu Fangyu next to him couldn't help laughing: "Fortunately, the coach is wise, let Li Hai play the No. 2 position and be on the same team as me, otherwise I may be the one who will be abused." ”
After this period of intensive training, Lehi and others became familiar with each other, especially the young people.
"The leaders of the Basketball Association are here again, isn't there another meeting, it's even more tiring than training."
Several officials of the Basketball Association walked over towards Li Hai with smiles on their faces, "Xiao Li, you are sure to win this Stankovic Cup, you are a master of the NBA, no matter which team you face, you should have an advantage." ”
Li Hai Zhengse said: "I just want to win the game, and I will definitely go all out on the court." ”
"Okay, let's have a swearing-in meeting later, and Xiao Li will also make a speech." The leader was very satisfied with his statement, and deliberately patted him on the shoulder, but Lehi's height made this kind gesture a little difficult.
This time, a strong team like Argentina in the Stankovic Cup did not send all the main players over, and Li Hai also wanted to test what kind of changes he could bring to the team after joining the national team.
On July 26, Lehi officially appeared on the court wearing the national team jersey.
The first opponent of the Chinese team was Angola, and the starters were: Liu Wei, Zhu Fangyu, Li Hai, Mo Ke, Yi Jianlian, which is a very young lineup.
Angola, on the other hand, are not a central striker, much shorter than the Chinese team, and their star players are Olympio Cipriano in the back line and Joquim Gomez in the forward line.
The highest starting point of the Angolan team was only 2 meters, and the Chinese team did not win the jump ball unexpectedly, and after Li Hai received Liu Wei's pass at the top of the arc, he changed direction and entered the opponent's inner line and directly completed the violent dunk.
The audience at the Capital Stadium was instantly ignited, and they finally looked forward to the player who played so vigorously.
Li Hai kicked off the Chinese team's scoring campaign, and then the team blossomed inside and out, quickly extending the score to double digits.
The tactics of the Angolan men's basketball team are very clear, a large number of three-point shots, and their tactics have also had a certain impact on the Chinese team, the Chinese team is a regular lineup, and the interior sometimes can't keep up.
"Gomez received the ball on the side, in front of him was Lehi, Gomez started to dribble, the Angolan player has good physical fitness, can go inside and out, he may want to break through, but Lehi didn't give him the slightest chance, Gomez suddenly made a strong three-point shot......"
"Risked, Li Hai directly gave the opponent a big hat, the Chinese team launched a counterattack, Li Hai staged a violent dunk again, the first quarter of the game ended, the Chinese team led by 14 points at 27:13, of which Li Hai scored 11 points alone."
In the second quarter, the head coach gave Lehi a break and began to scout the other players.
But after Li Hai went down, the Chinese team's defense immediately had some problems, and the opponent hit three points in a row.
The opponent's ferocious pressing also made the Chinese team feel troubled, after all, the opponent also defeated the Chinese team in the 2002 World Championships, and it was not without a little strength.
Moreover, this time, Yao Ming, the pillar of the Chinese team, and Li Nan, the captain of the team, are both injured and unable to play, and they are not the strongest lineup.
Seeing that the opponent's score was getting closer and closer, Coach Younas replaced Lehi again in the second half of the second quarter.
Li Hai hit a three-pointer as soon as he went up, and then completed a steal and assisted Yi Jianlian, and at halftime, he once again helped the national team extend the lead to double digits.
In the second half, Lehi was substituted after only a short play, and his strength was unquestionable, and his all-round skills were easily integrated with his teammates, so Younas was relieved to inspect the rest of the team.
Due to the huge lead that Li Hai helped the team get on the court, this time the Chinese team did not have the thrill in history, and easily got off to a good start with 74:60.
The next day, the Chinese team continued to face the powerhouse Lithuania, and the players who could not play added another Du Feng.
The Chinese team is still the starting lineup for the first game, and the opponent is not dominant in height except for Salus Kuz in the center position.
It was the Chinese team that took the lead in attacking, Yi Jianlian took advantage of his height advantage to score a mid-range jumper, and then Li Hai stole Mindagorz Lucascos and scored on a fast break.
Compared to Angola, Lithuania obviously played in a much more disciplined way, and they were also very fierce, compared to them, some of the players in the Chinese team looked like honest boys.
But Lehi is not afraid of fierce guys, he is a fierce representative himself, and on defense, he can make many NBA scoring masters feel uncomfortable.
In essence, this is a difference in playing style caused by the difference in physical fitness, and the physical fitness of most of the players in the Chinese team is still not strong enough.
However, Li Hai's advantage has led the team as a whole, he has attracted firepower on the outside, and several wonderful passes to the inside, Moko and Tang Zhengdong, who came on as a substitute, have both scored.
At the last moment, Lehi scored on a breakaway to set the score at 25:17 in the first quarter.
After Li Hai went down in the second quarter of the game, Lithuania started from the inside and quickly caught up with the score, so anxious that Yao Ming and Li Nan, the veteran qualifications of the national team, couldn't help but shout on the field.
Li Hai also saw the problem, under the strong confrontation, the Chinese team's mistakes will increase, and there will be problems in defense, these things are not problems that can be solved with a few reminders.
After the draw, Coach Younas called a timeout, "Fewer mistakes, play at our pace, we have a chance to win, understand, boys, don't rush, concentrate." ”
Younas hesitated for a moment and then replaced Lehi, and although he also wanted to test the pressure resistance of the other players, he didn't want to lose either.
After Li Hai got on the court, he immediately hit the basket and caused the opponent's foul.
The effect of the star was immediate, and if Lithuania wanted to defend against Lehi, they had to make a pinch, and as long as they were pinched, Lehi would quickly pass the ball to the open space and increase the team's chances.
In defense, he is always conscientious and swears not to give up.
Lehi also realized the difference between the national team and the Knicks, there is no Marbury and Crawford here, and the speed of the team's advancement cannot be so fast, he also made adjustments, most of the time he plays with the rhythm, and only a good opportunity is to get rid of the opponent directly by speed, and the opponent is not on a stable footing.
With Li Hai, the Chinese team is once again in the lead.
