Chapter 33: A Tougher Test

readx;

The enthusiasm in the Huanglong Stadium is still there, and the passion is still there. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's just that compared with the enthusiastic fans, the performance of the players of the Chinese team is a little shabby.

2-11, such a bleak start is not a bleak start, but it is indeed one of the few dismal starts for the Chinese team's Olympic warm-up this year.

Compared to the first game against the Australian Stars, when they didn't score in the first six minutes, this one started even more sluggishly.

After all, both sides seemed a little restrained in that game, and the score was not completely opened. Obviously, Angola are more experienced than the Australian stars, and after losing their height advantage, they completely abandoned their height and switched to fast attack.

This is exactly where the headache of the Chinese team lies.

Although the dismal start made Younas a little anxious, now he can only rely on the individual ability of the players to solve the problem.

Because speed itself is not the advantage of the Chinese team.

Swish!

Rumble!

"Beautiful, Chen Jianghua, Chen Jianghua, after two consecutive changes of direction on the outside, he turned his back and made a direct layup, this time it completely showed the characteristics of Chen Jianghua, although Andy's confrontation ability is not very strong, and his organizational ability is slightly inferior. But the super fast speed and super breakthrough ability are incomparable to many guards! At the critical moment, daring to break through and being able to break through is what the Chinese team lacks. ”

Chen Jianghua's breakthrough layup not only broke the scoring deadlock of the Chinese team and helped the Chinese team stabilize the situation, but also solved Younas's urgent need, and more importantly, he improved the morale of the entire team.

Clang!

Angola's attack missed, and Zhang Kai relied on his height advantage. Straight to the rebound.

Counterattack.

Compared with Angola, the speed of the Chinese team is indeed not a disadvantage, but the occasional counterattack and impact make Angola a little embarrassed.

Although Chen Jianghua's breakthrough did not get a chance to make a layup, it tore Angola's formation to pieces. After the unguarded Ding Jinhui received the ball at the top of the arc, he was given enough time to adjust.

Swish!

"Beautiful, Ding Jinhui's three-point shot at a critical moment helped the team narrow the score, and it is not impossible to participate in the Olympic Games, but Ding Jinhui still needs to continue to prove himself in the game and impress Younas with actions."

Three-pointers at the critical moment. Ding Jinhui did show his level in front of Younas, but if he wants to finally follow the team to the Beijing Olympics, Ding Jinhui still needs to show more.

The Chinese team, which has played twice in a row, has gradually found its own offensive rhythm, on the contrary. The Angolan team gradually lost its initiative in the face of the Chinese team, which had high morale.

Syllable!

Taking advantage of the other party's inattention, Sun Yue's hand flashed, and he quickly tapped lightly on the basketball.

The basketball is directly out of the control of the opposing guard.

While the basketball was out of the control of the opposing guard, Sun Yue was like a sharp arrow, and after getting the basket, he quickly rushed towards the basket of Angola.

Beep!

Swish!

"Beautiful, two plus one, Sun Yue's one-stop layup after a steal caused a foul on the opposing player, and he scored three points!"

Swish!

Penalty hit. 10-11。

With three chances, the Chinese team wiped out Angola's advantage.

It seems that it is just a change in the score, but in fact, the psychology of both sides has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Although Angola are still playing with passion when attacking. But there is no longer the unstoppable momentum and advantage of the opening, especially after Yao Ming came on the field, Angola's advantage is even less obvious.

By the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team directly chased the score to 19 draws.

In the second half of the first quarter, the strong performance of the Chinese team made people see the momentum of eleven consecutive wins.

It's just after the start of the second quarter. The game didn't go the way the fans had hoped.

The Chinese team, which was replaced by a substitute lineup, although Yao Ming sat on the inside. But they didn't extend the score, let alone lay the foundation for victory. On the contrary, he gradually lost the advantage and confidence that he had accumulated in the second half of the first quarter in the game.

Especially the inside line that Yao Ming struggled to support. It has become the main target of Angola's attack.

Can Yao Ming, who has returned from injury, withstand Angola's crazy attack?

Just when the fans were worried about Yao Ming.

The shrill whistle sounded again.

There was a sigh in the stadium in an instant!

I saw Yao Ming shaking his head helplessly in the face of the referee.

"Ah, the referee blew Yao Ming's foul, this is Yao Ming's third foul! In this case, Yao Ming had to take a break when there were four minutes left in the second quarter! Although Yao Ming has a certain effect on the field, compared with the fast and flexible Angolan players, Yao Ming is much more bulky, so there will inevitably be some actions when defending! Why do you want to hide Leilin and Yi Jianlian? I don't understand Younas! ”

Not only the commentators, but many people don't understand why Younas hid Yi Jianlian and Lei Lin.

is also tall, Yi Jianlian and Lei Lin's contributions at both offensive and defensive ends may not be as great as Yao Ming's, but this is not comparable to Zhang Kai. In terms of athleticism and mobility, Yao Ming is incomparable.

Clang!

The basketball smashed on the side of the basket and bounced out, and the rebound was confiscated by the Angolan.

As the star of Dongguan Marco Polo and the hero of promotion, Zhang Kai's ability is beyond doubt. But the emaciated figure really does not have an advantage in international competitions.

Although on the court, technique is very important, but as an interior player, if you can't improve your confrontation ability, sometimes you really can't show your skills.

Under the interference of Angolan "center" Gomez, Zhang Kai's shot was directly missed.

Oh!

There was a sigh in the stadium.

As the minutes and seconds passed, Angola once again slowly widened the difference!

31-38!

At the end of the second quarter, Angola led China by seven points.

Although the point difference is not very large, it gives the impression that there is little hope of victory.

And compared with the last game against Serbia, the performance of the Chinese team in this game is basically no bright spots. Aside from a few beautiful offenses in the second half of the first quarter, there wasn't much to lift people's passions.

In the silence of the locker room, Younas frowned slightly, pacing back and forth there.

If you only look at Angola's technical and tactical arrangements against the Chinese team, then this first half of the game can basically be seen.

Facing the Chinese team, which is much taller than them, they have done a lot of work on the rhythm of the game, relying on the speed and explosiveness of the players to frequently hit the inside.

Although the current situation of the Chinese team is lagging behind, it seems that it is because of the lack of Yi Jianlian and Lei Lin.

In fact, although the athletic ability of the two is much better than Yao Ming, compared with Zhang Kai, it is not much higher. Zhang Kai can't play in the face of Angolan players, can he quickly determine the advantage by replacing Yi Jianlian and Lei Lin? Is it just that the two played in the NBA?

Such an idea is a bit naïve!

Younas looked at the somewhat gloomy players and sighed.

This game is not only for the players, but also for Younas himself.

As the opponents in the same group of the Olympic Games, it is conceivable that they ended up in such a situation in this Stankovic Cup, and you can imagine how the media will evaluate it after the game.

Even if they win, when they play each other at the Olympics, there will inevitably be some fear in the hearts of the players.

At the same time, it is not difficult to imagine that they will have to undergo a more severe test in the Olympic Games.

But before that, the first thing to solve is how to cross the small hill of Angola! (To be continued)
