Chapter 278: Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger
"Nice cap! The king cannon directly flew out of Shevid's dunk fan! This is definitely a volleyball player's smashing action, looking at the menacing appearance of basketball, you can imagine how much power Wang Cannon used this time! Yu Jia exclaimed and said: "Poor Sheved, the basketball was covered by Wang Cannon's hot pot, and he was also hit by Wang Cannon." If I were a referee, just looking at the pitiful appearance of Scheved, I would have to blow the king cannon and a defensive foul. β
"It's a pity you're not, but it's a good thing you're not." Yao Ming shook his head with a smile, and then said: "Wang Cannon's storage zΓ i is equivalent to setting up an incomparably hard shield for the inner line of the Celestial Empire team, which makes the entire defensive quality of the Celestial Empire team have a qualitative improvement, which is quite important for the Celestial Empire team. β
Yu Jia nodded in agreement, "During this period of time, if it weren't for the strong blocking of the inside line of the Wang Cannon as a deterrent to deter the Russian team, I am afraid that the defense line of the Celestial Empire team would have been crushed by the Russian tide-like offensive." β
The head coach of Russia has no way at this time, Wang Cannon is like a bug that is open, the offense is an incomparably headache, and the defense of the wool is still so tough?
In the past, the head coach of Russia never believed that someone could defend five positions by himself, even if there were NBA Garnett, James and other players as role models, he didn't believe it, because it was just a special play in a specific situation, any player has weaknesses and weaknesses, there are five players with different offensive characteristics standing on the court, who can defend any of the players in the five positions?
But Wang Cannon just did it, a fast point guard, a scoring guard with amazing skills and accurate shooting, a small forward with outstanding explosiveness and strong impact, and a big forward with superior height and mid-range shooting ability. and a center forward who also has a good height advantage and a good body tonnage.
No matter who the five positions are, as long as they meet the king cannon, they will really wilt.
Faced with such a situation, what else can the Russian head coach do? The entire Russian team also did not have a single way.
Looking at the king cannon who had been rumored to be in a bad state before, but now it was like a god descending to earth. There was only one thought in the Russian manager's mind.
"Give me a king cannon! I can compete for the championship too! β
The Russian head coach didn't just think about this idea in his head, in fact, he said it helplessly in the post-match press conference.
"Although I don't want to admit it, the main reason why our team lost this game is only because of one person, yes, it is Wang Cannon, he is like a god soldier born out of thin air. While we were still using the old infantry guns of World War II, this guy was holding the latest individual anti-tank RPG and pulling the trigger at us! He's not on the same level as our players, and if I had a king cannon, I would even have the idea of wrestling with Team USA for the title. β
The Russian coach did not hesitate to praise Wang Cannon, because after this group stage, the possibility of Russia and the Celestial Empire team wanting to play again is about zero.
Because the teams in each group only have one chance to meet in the group stage, and the teams in the quarterfinals are all in Group A and Group B. Russia and the Celestial Empire, both in Group B, are also unlikely to play each other.
By the time the quarterfinals are over, the chances of neither Russia nor the Celestial Empire being eliminated are too small.
It is for this reason that it is also possible. The head coach of Russia praised Wang Dacang for being so blatant, and his intention was obvious, our team lost, not because the Celestial Empire team was strong, but because Wang Dacang was strong, and we lost to Wang Cannon. Not to lose to the Celestial Empire.
I have to say that those who can be the head coach are all cunning guys, even if the possibility of fighting again is very small, and they will disgust the Celestial Empire team.
Fortunately. The head coach of the Celestial Empire team is not particularly stupid, and Deng Huade emphasized the important role of the overall team ability of the Celestial Empire team in this game at the press conference.
"In this game, I saw a particularly united Celestial Empire team, which is what I have always wanted to see, Wang Cannon showed the strength of the dominant level as I imagined, and the other players also played quite reasonable and efficient tactics around Wang Cannon, and every qiΔ seemed so natural, and winning the game was a matter of course." Deng Huade will not be provoked by the clumsy discord of the Russian head coach, "Basketball is a five-person game, which has been defined since the creation of this sport, no one can play 1v5, and no one can make a Jedi comeback without the help of teammates!" Therefore, if the Celestial Empire team wants to go further in the Olympic arena, it needs to continue to be united. β
Many people scoffed at Deng Huade's words, who said that basketball can't be 1v5? What is Kobe Bryant's 81 points? What is Maddie 35.13 minutes?
However, more people agree with Deng Huade's statement.
In this group stage with Russia, the players of the Celestial Empire team generally counted jΓΉ, and even Wang Dacang, who was known as the little prince, was only 24 points, 19 rebounds, 3 steals and 7 blocks in this game.
Although it looks very gorgeous, as long as you think of Wang Cannon's average of more than 30 points per game in the NBA, it naturally looks very ordinary. After all, Yi Jianlian scored 30 points and 17 rebounds in the first game, can Wang Cannon's number be considered good?
However, Yi Jianlian's number of games is much worse than the first game, 14 points and 6 rebounds, Yi Jianlian's play is unremarkable, but it can't be said that it is useless.
In a situation like Yi Jianlian, there are many people in the Celestial Empire team.
Liu Wei 12 points, Sun Yue 18 points, Chen Jianghua 10 points, Zhu Fangyu 11 points, Wang Zhizhi 9 points.
In the entire Celestial Empire team, there are 6 people who score double-doubles, and two people's scores are infinitely close to double digits, so it is naturally normal to win.
The Celestial Empire team was able to win the match with the Russian team, and the entire Celestial Empire was celebrating, especially Wang Cannon's table, which made people feel surprised at the same time, but also felt that it was right, after all, Wang Cannon didn't have this table, like Wang Cannon in the previous period. That's not a king cannon at all!
Maybe it's because the game table is a little better, and Wang Cannon, who is in a better mood, participated in the press conference for the first time.
This is also Wang Dacang's first press conference after joining the national team, before that, he only attended once when he announced his participation in the training camp, and Wang Dacang refused to participate in the press conference during the Si Cup and warm-up matches.
The reason is simple. Wang Dacang was afraid that he would leak his mouth, after all, he knew his unobstructed problem, maybe he would really say it if he was provoked by someone.
As for now, it's been exposed anyway, so it doesn't matter what's going on.
Wang Dacang can actually guess that as long as he attends the press conference, he will definitely be asked about his previous state, but he doesn't care anymore.
"Mr. Wang Cannon. Some time ago you couldn't find your form, but this game, your watch is so perfect, why is that? β
A reporter immediately raised his hand and stood up at the beginning, and asked Wang Dacang with some unconvinced questions.
Because this reporter was relatively close to Wang Dacang, Wang Dacang could see the work card on his chest. This is a Russian journalist.
Wang Cannon seemed to understand something.
Wang Cannon's previous show of weakness to the enemy, the Russian team was not too fooled, but the Russian media had already gone crazy with joy. In their opinion, the king cannon is not in good shape. That should be for sure, so before the match between the two teams, many Russian media swore that Russia would definitely win this game.
But the facts have taken the Russian media by surprise.
The Russian reporter who is now interviewing Wang Dacang is a media that previously supported Russia to crush the Celestial Empire team, and Wang Dacang's strong rise easily abused the Russian team, which naturally made these reporters feel disgraced.
Although it is not explicitly stated. But the meaning of these journalists is clear.
"You're kidding me, aren't you? It was so watery in the warm-up game, but it was so good in the game? Could it be open? β
In this regard, Wang Dacang was just very calm, "hehe" smiled, and then asked rhetorically: "This children's shoes." Have you ever heard of an old Chinese saying that is called showing weakness to the enemy? β
The reporter was stunned for a moment, how could he understand the ancient Chinese dialect? Even many foreigners who have studied Chinese for many years may not be able to understand the meaning of these strange old sayings.
Seeing this, Wang Dacang shook his head lightly, "It seems that you don't know, so do you know the meaning of the phrase pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?" β
"Mr. Wang Dacang, what I am asking you now is about basketball, which has nothing to do with pigs and tigers." Russian reporters frowned at Wang Cannon's brainless words.
"Uh" Wang Dacang was speechless, "Forget it, I was still interested in explaining it to you, but I don't have any desire when you say that." β
Wang Cannon spread his hands, and then said with an innocent expression: "I'll answer your previous question now, didn't you ask me why I suddenly got better in this game?" I'm sorry, I'm in a good mood today, so I'm in good shape. β
"You!" The reporter pointed at Wang Dacang and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Wang Cannon is perfunctory to him, he can naturally hear it, but what can he do? Maybe people are really in a state because they are in a good mood, what can he say? Can't you always point your nose and scold the king cannon?
The Russian reporter sat back in his seat with an indignant face, and he was already thinking about how to take revenge on Wang Cannon in the newspaper.
As for Wang Cannon, I don't care at all, you are a Russian reporter, why am I afraid of you? Not to mention Russian journalists, even American journalists, or even journalists from the Celestial Empire, Wang Cannon will not be afraid to offend them.
In Wang Dacang's view, reporters have always been just a profession that can only speak with their mouths, and their counterattack is only a painless thing like public opinion.
Some people may feel uncomfortable because of the media's public opinion, but Wang Dacang obviously does not belong to that column, on the contrary, sometimes for his own happiness, Wang Dacang will even take the initiative to provoke reporters, you have the ability to bite me!
Regardless of the comic press conference on Wang Cannon's side, on the Celestial Empire's side, the people of the Celestial Empire who watched the press conference burst into laughter.
It turned out that Wang Dacang was not in good shape before because he wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger! But if you think about it, it seems that this set is really useful! At least Russia, although prepared, was still caught off guard by the king cannon.
To be able to win a victory in the group stage, Wang Cannon's previous pretense is enough to be worth the money!
Group stage so far. The Celestial Empire team played a total of two games, one win and one loss, and in Group B, the record is second only to Spain and Australia, which have won two consecutive games, and Russia also has one win and one loss, because it lost to the Celestial Empire team, so it is temporarily ranked below the Celestial Empire team.
Two other groups. Brazil and England are both tragic two-game losing streaks.
The next opponent of the Celestial Empire team is still the opponent who competed in the Si Cup, the Australian team.
Compared with the Russian team, the Australian team is less well-known in terms of stars, and the entire Australian team does not have a player who has also been in the NBA like Kirilenko, but the overall teamwork of the Australian team is stronger than that of Russia.
Speaking of which, there is actually a celebrity in Australia. Andrew. Bogut, the champion of the Bucks, is an Australian, but this buddy didn't have a good life, and he didn't play long in the NBA before he became a tragedy.
Anyway, in a word, Australia is a strong team, a strong team that is stronger than the Celestial Empire team. The Australian team defeated by the Celestial Empire team in the Si Cup is not all of Australia's main teams like Russia.
More important things. Because of the exposure of Wang Cannon in the match with Russia, Australia had a certain amount of preparation before the match with the Celestial Empire team, whether these preparations were useful or not, but at least they should be stronger than Russia.
For the Celestial Empire team, they don't necessarily have to win this game. Having already won against Russia, as long as the Celestial Empire team can win two more games, they will definitely enter the quarterfinals! Even if they lose to Australia, they can still qualify for the finals if they win against Brazil and Great Britain in the future.
Brazil and England are not basketball powerhouses like Australia. The Celestial Empire team still has some confidence in dealing with these two teams.
But who is willing to admit defeat without a match? Everyone in the Celestial Empire team is willing to give up this competition, the Olympics are only once again in four years, and an athlete can only participate in a few times in his life, and no one wants to stain their Olympic experience, even if it is Wang Cannon, this is the same.
Wang Cannon's system is called the 2K system, the full name is NBA2K, that is to say, the Olympic Games, there is also no reward mechanism, for Wang Cannon, any score jΓΉ has no meaning, but he still tries his best to brush the score, sometimes, it is not necessary to have a number of jΓΉ to work hard, there is no same.
The match with Australia was officially launched on August 2, and this game had Wang Cannon as the pioneer, and the Celestial Empire team occupied the absolute initiative from the beginning.
The cannon was limited by Australia's various defensive tactics in the game, but he still contributed 9 points and 4 rebounds, and Yi Jianlian, another NBA-level player of the Celestial Empire team, was also good in this game.
In this game, Yi Jianlian fully showed that he stole the Golden Rooster independence from the Mavericks Nowitzki, and he really looked good, he scored 11 points in the first quarter, even higher than Wang Cannon's score.
With the 22 points scored by the two people together, the Celestial Empire team had the upper hand with a 31:26 lead of 5 points in the first quarter, and in the second quarter of the game, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian played together, Wang Cannon made a cameo from the forward position to the guard, and Australia was at a loss, Wang Cannon played the guard, this is the first time in the world, if there is no 90 passing ability, Wang Cannon does not dare to play like this!
But after strengthening the passing ability of 90, Wang Cannon is a little unscrupulous, anyway, he will definitely not be able to prevent himself from breaking through the opposite side, even if someone comes to cover him, it is a big deal to pass the ball himself. Wang Cannon's vision is not good, but Deng Huade has already thought of a way very early, that is, after the player finds that he has a vacant seat, he yells at Wang Cannon.
Seeing doesn't mean you can't hear, after hearing the roar of your teammates, if Wang Dacang's 90 pass can't be passed to the opponent's hands, then there is nothing to be done.
Wang's alternative cameo completely disrupted the Australian set-up, and it was only at this moment that the Australian head coach could finally appreciate the feelings of the Russian head coach in the previous game.
A player like Wang Cannon is really not something that can be dealt with with by ordinary tactical targets.
If there is no specific player who is good at defending the king cannon, it is completely impossible to prevent the king cannon.
Even James, Marion and other style players need the assistance of their teammates if they want to defend against Wang Cannon.
From falling behind in the first quarter, Australia was at an absolute disadvantage in several quarters of the game, constantly falling behind, which also made the Australian players start to be irritable.
Some small actions, intentional or unintentional, have also begun to gradually increase.
In the middle of the third quarter, when Zhu Fangyu broke through, he was elbowed by Australian player Anderson, the corner of his eyebrows was broken, and blood spilled on the court.
At the end of the third quarter, Wang Cannon broke through with the ball and was pushed hard by Australia's substitute player to the waist, if it weren't for Wang Cannon's huge body and the opponent's lack of strength, maybe Wang Cannon would have been injured because of this foul!
was secretly calculated, Wang Cannon was a little angry and wanted to go up to teach this guy who didn't know how to live or die, but was stopped by his teammates, now the Celestial Empire team is in an absolute advantage, and it will definitely not fight with Australia, if Wang Cannon is sent off because of the conflict, or even banned, it will be worth the loss.
It's not that the players of the Celestial Empire team think too much, Wang Cannon's funny personality is really possible to do such a thing.
But fortunately, Wang Cannon also knew the severity, so he endured it and suppressed this matter.
But as the saying goes, people are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, and the Celestial Empire team's blind tolerance has become the arrogant capital of the Australian team. (To be continued......)
