Chapter 284: Breakthrough Achievement

Lithuania thinks that it was because of carelessness that Tang Wenlong won it, and I also admire this superstar who reborn the Chinese men's basketball team in my heart.

He was also a little glad in his heart, fortunately, Tang Wenlong had not yet debuted in 08, if he met Tang Wenlong at that time, coupled with Yao Ming, the peak who always needed to be clamped, even if Lithuania was strong, I am afraid it would not be able to withstand it. The nature is probably similar to the role player's weakened version of the Rockets vs. Lithuania, and to put it irreverently, Tang Wenlong at this time is only stronger than Maddie during the Rockets.

At least the outside firepower of the pit dad is very troublesome. The joint defense that European teams rely on to survive is not particularly effective in front of Tang Wenlong's accurate and unlimited range three-point shot.

Jascovysius gathered his mind and raised his right hand to organize the attack.

He directly arranged for two interior players to give the wing scoring guard Matthewlis's double cover, there is no doubt that Lithuania is a team player who really implements the five-position concept of basketball to the bones, and there is no problem at all to cover the scoring guard, even if the scoring guard is not famous.

Matthew Liss went to the line, Tang Wenlong gave Wang Shipeng a look, and the two of them changed their guards.

At this time, Kreiza ran to the elbow area to cover Valanciunas, Valanciunas received the ball in the elbow area, and then Kreiza and Jascovisius interspersed the running position, Kreiza suddenly ran back to the basket and cut into the air, Valanciunas saw it clearly, and directly sent a pass to the ground.

Kreza didn't dribble, he took the ball and hit the basket in three steps, at this moment Yi Jian United was transferred out of the interior by Valanciunas, Wang Zhizhi's footsteps moved slowly and didn't have time to make up for the defense, and watched Kreiza lick the basket and hit.

"None of this is deducted." Tang Wenlong pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, his tone quite disdainful. What I was thinking about was how Kreza, a hanging man, came in so empty, and the defense of the Chinese men's basketball team is still a really difficult problem.

Fortunately, on the offensive end, the men's basketball team gave Tang Wenlong great help, and after Tang Wenlong accelerated and broke through Kreza's ball, Liu Wei decisively and steadily hit the first three points in the opening game.

"It's connected." Deng Huade yelled in his heart.

In fact, Yao Ming was also as dominant as Tang Wenlong, the problem is that Yao Ming has no way to connect the team like Tang Wenlong, both of them can attract the bag, Yao Ming divides the ball to the outside line after attracting it, and the opponent must also make up the defense in place, Tang Wenlong points the ball, and the Chinese men's basketball team is directly a three-meter empty space, after all, the offensive methods of the two people are very different.

One is mainly based on back-to-back singles, and the other is mainly based on frame breakthroughs.

Lithuania attacked, after a few shots, the basketball was handed to Valanciunas under the basket to attack Yi Jian United, such an attack will naturally not be effective, Yi Jian United successfully defended Valanciunas and protected the next backcourt rebound.

In the subsequent attack, the Chinese team did not score, and Tang Wenlong's shot to Yi Jianlian was interfered with.

The Lithuanian tactics were successful, and the outside of the line Matthewlis found an opportunity, and he immediately shot a three-pointer, and the two teams tied 5-5 and returned to the same running line.

The tactics of both teams after the opening game were very straightforward, Lithuania pressed the Chinese team with the overall attack, as long as the Chinese team's defense was out of position, Lithuania would find an open teammate to score easily. China's side is more rough, directly launched by Tang Wenlong to attack, as long as Lithuania assists in defense, Tang Wenlong can also send the ball to his teammates in the vacant position, and he can also create opportunities for his teammates to score in the vacant position.

The head coach of Lithuania firmly believes that the Chinese team's style of play is not sustainable, and team fighting is the king of the basketball game.

So even if the Chinese team led Lithuania by 3 points 22-19 in the first quarter, he still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, which is quite a bit like Phil Jackson.

"Need a break?" Deng Huade looked at Tang Wenlong, who was sweating profusely on the field, and asked in English.

Tang Wenlong tilted his head sideways, was silent for a moment, but still shook his head, "Forget it, I don't attack in the second quarter, I feint on the field to contain it, the physical consumption of this point is not particularly large, and I can still hold it out for 40 minutes." ”

Deng Huade respected Tang Wenlong's choice, as early as before the start of the Olympic Games, Tang Wenlong had approached Deng Huade, hoping to play all the games during the Olympic Games. He is different from Yao Ming, Yao Ming is an inside line, he can only resist the opponent, and when he encounters some heavier opponents, the physical consumption will be fast, and Tang Wenlong is the outside line, just like he just said, standing on the court and not doing anything to contain it is better than sitting off the court.

But Lithuania didn't know that Tang Wenlong was not ready to attack himself in the second quarter, and the new Sebutis who came to defend him was like a great enemy, and he never dared to let Tang Wenlong take a step. Several other players also paid attention to Tang Wenlong's dynamics at all times, and their attention was unconsciously scattered.

Tang Wenlong let Chen Jianghua break through with the ball, and at the same time played a block and dismantle attack with Yi Jianlian, who had returned to the court after a break in the first quarter, and then let Zhu Fangyu ambush in the bottom corner to break Lithuania's three-two defense.

Although the Lithuanian men's basketball team on the bench was also very good, it still couldn't suppress the Chinese team, and was also shot by Zhu Fangyu for three points. Fortunately, after Tang Wenlong did not attack, the Chinese team's mistakes increased, and Lithuania took the opportunity to have several more opportunities for fast attack and defensive counterattack, and the score difference between the two teams was always on the same starting line.

In the second half of the game, the main forces of the two sides came back, Tang Wenlong also took over the ball again, and before halftime, Lithuania overtook the Chinese team by 1 point 45-44.

The two teams played offensive basketball, and the audience was hooked.

In the second half, with the decline in the physical fitness of the Chinese men's basketball team, the shooting rate inevitably declined, and Tang Wenlong worriedly found that there was a situation like in the first game, even if he shot in the open position, there were several misses.

Lithuania took the opportunity to open up the gap and at one point established an eight-point lead.

Deng Huade paused to suppress the rising momentum of Lithuania, and Tang Wenlong began to choose his own strong attack, directly pulling out unreasonable three-point shots on the outside line to stabilize the morale of the Chinese team.

Then he singled Kreiza in the low post, turned and leaned back and hit another shot to score five points in a row.

After two throws, Tang Wenlong felt that his hand was okay, so he simply didn't pass the ball, unless the Lithuanian double was particularly powerful.

He is not strong in the same joint defensive line as Tietong, but with his personal ability to shoot outside jumpers, the height and arm span of this position can cover him can not be found in the NBA, he came to the touch again, and hit a series of hits, directly leading the Chinese men's basketball team to play a wave of shockwaves.

At the end of the third quarter, Lithuania was 70-65 and overtook Lithuania by 5 points.

In this quarter, Tang Wenlong scored 15 points like cutting melons and vegetables, and his personal score rose to 30.

In the final quarter, Lithuania broke the kettle and simply replaced the veteran Darius, and changed it to let the defender Carnetis, who performed well in this game, play on the field, led by Valanciunas, and directly became a big and four small fighting lineup. Through continuous rotation defense, Tang Wenlong was frantically trapped.

Deng Huade shouted that it was not good, and replaced Ding Jinhui, the No. 4 position who could fight and grab, to control the rebounds on the court.

Tang Wenlong did suffer from some restrictions, as soon as he held the ball in the half, he encountered the Lithuanian double bag, and after transferring the ball, Lithuania interfered with the Chinese team's shot through active running, and the hit rate was pressed very low, and the lead was instantly eroded. Fortunately, Tang Wenlong made two beautiful large-scale transfers, and the Chinese men's basketball team hit a three-pointer, otherwise it would have been overtaken.

Tang Wenlong has a high basketball IQ, and the coaching staff has not yet come up with a way to crack it, so he quickly changed his offensive method and asked for the ball directly in the low post.

Lithuania was immediately embarrassed this time, after Tang Wenlong was in a low position, the Chinese team could better open up the space for singles, and because of Tang Wenlong's arm span and strength, the Chinese player who passed the ball to him from the outside was not afraid of the ball being cut off by the Lithuanian player. When the Lithuanian players were ready to wrap Tang Wenlong, Tang Wenlong directly turned his back and stepped back to shoot, exaggerated amplitude, and resolutely shot, and the basketball ruthlessly passed through the net again and again, hitting the heart of the Lithuanians.

"Is this the top, the most inexplicable player?" The head coach of Lithuania was dumbfounded, muttering to himself, doubting for the first time the idea that basketball was a teamwork sport.

The win or loss of the game depends on the competition of high and low scores, it is easy to score goals after taking tactics, but it is not successful every time, people's single attacks are unreasonable, but the shooting rate is higher than the goal after you finish the tactics, and the scoring efficiency explodes instantly.

In the last minute, Lithuania trailed the Chinese team by 7 points, and theoretically could recover the score, but the morale of the players fell to the bottom.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated the Lithuanian team for the first time in Olympic history 92-82, and won by double digits.

The moment the bell rang, countless Chinese fans cried with joy.

The ball was scored, Tang Wenlong's decisive 3-point shot, and the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Lithuania! This is a historic moment, the Chinese men's basketball team has achieved breakthrough results and reached the semifinals of the London Olympics! In the last minute of the broadcast, when Tang Wenlong made the last three-pointer, Yu Jia roared out in an almost broken voice (to be continued.) )
