Before the trip, the Dream Nine team was not favored by everyone, but they went all the way from the group stage to finally reach the final.

They may have shortcomings in this team, but some of their achievements are enough to go down in history.

The free-throw shooting percentage and points conceded per game are among the best in the history of the Dream Team, and on August 31, the United States faced Brazil, where they narrowly outscored 70-68, but the 70 points in a single game set a record low, and they also had eight assists in the game, which is also the lowest in history.

In addition, after many big names were absent from the Dream Team, the current Dream Nine team pays more attention to the basics, which can be seen in the free throws.

Free throws are the easiest way to score, but they haven't been done well enough in the past. In this World Championships, the Dream Nine team shot 73 free throws. 3%, which is already the highest among all dream teams.

In the NBA, there is a saying called defense to win the championship, in the past, the dream team because of its strong offensive power, the director zhì was lax on the defensive end, but in the dream nine team can not see this phenomenon, they pay attention to the defensive quality of each round, and only let the opponent get 68 per game. 2 points, which is also the best of all the dream teams.

The Dream Nine team is excellent defensively, which is also reflected in their defensive rebounds, but they can average 28 rebounds per game when they were originally on the low side of the lineup. 7 backcourt rebounds, second only to the 2008 Dream Eight in the history of the Dream Team, you must know that the class had Howard.

Due to the fact that the Dream Nine has always advocated defense, coupled with the lack of interior players, he has not done well in offensive rebounding, averaging only 13 goals per game, a new low in the history of the Dream Team World Championships, and the previous low was 13 in the 2002 World Championships. 9 pcs.

When we talk about defense, we have to talk about offense.

The Dream Nine team's offense is not flashy, but due to their excellent defense, they also look more impressive in terms of goal difference, averaging 24 per game. With 6 points, this score is the second best of the Dream Team's four World Championships, behind only the Dream Team 2 in 1994.

On the offensive end, the U.S. team is good at shooting three-pointers simply because the three-point line is longer in the NBA, but interestingly, they have shot very few three-pointers in the Olympics historically.

Many fans don't understand the reason, you must know that the hoop height of FIBA and NBA is different, and the latter is slightly higher. But for professional players, a little change in hoop height can drop a lot in their hitting.

As the saying goes, the slightest mistake is a thousand miles, and this is the truth. Therefore, for NBA players, the closer they are to the hoop, the easier it is to score, because getting closer to the hoop can more reasonably adjust the posture and strength of the shot.

In this World Championship, they are averaging 24 shots per game from beyond the three-point line. Nine times, which may seem like a lot, is the lowest record in the history of the Dream Team's World Championships.

Finally, from the offensive end, the Dream Nine team has the lowest average assists per game record in history, due to the low scoring in this World Championship, and most of them rely on Durant's individual singles, the cooperation is relatively rare, only 16 times.

What does it mean when these come together?

The Dream Team relies on the whole to grab rebounds, so they don't protect their frontcourt rebounds well; The Dream Team's offense relies more on player breakouts and close-range shots; The Dream Team lacks the kind of interior big man who can score on his own and then support his teammates on the perimeter.

Playing against other teams, the Dream Team is nothing, but when they meet the Dragons in the finals, these characteristics of theirs become weaknesses!

Yao Ming is very powerful at grabbing rebounds, and Chamberlain is the super rebounding king, with the latter, their rebounds will be sharply reduced, and close-range shots and breakthrough shots are even worse, Chamberlain and Yao Ming's blocking, but the strongest combination in the World Championships!

Nelson Jr. analyzed these early on, and this is also the last reliance he used to play in the final, yes, his trump card is Chamberlain.

Everyone knows that the ace of the Dragons is Chamberlain, but no one knows how Nelson Jr. uses him.

Nelson Jr. did not deliberately arrange tactics for Chamberlain in the first half, because he was afraid that his trump card would be detected by Lao K in advance, and when the time came, Nelson Jr. began to arrange tactics for Chamberlain.

At this time, it doesn't matter if Lao K finds out that it is not good, without the buffer of halftime, even if he has a supercomputer to help, it is impossible for him to find a way to crack it so quickly.

Chamberlain is a BUG, what is a BUG? A vulnerability that can be solved casually is not called a BUG.

At the end of the first half, Chamberlain had scored 20 points on 8 of 15 shots, and in the eyes of the coaching staff of the Dream Team, Chamberlain had already played extraordinarily.

However, when the second half of the game was about to start, Old Nelson suddenly found Old K and said seriously: "Mike, remember what I said?" Even though I took Chamberlain for three years, I still didn't know where his potential and limits were. ”

Old K was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Old Nelson frowned, he looked at the murderous Chamberlain, and said slowly: "In the first half, it may just be Z in a normal state, not SUPER-Z!" ”

Old K's assistant coach at Duke Blue Devils Sadraka laughed and said, "Old Don, we all know that Z is very good, but he is a person after all, right?" He's not God, so I think you're probably making a bit of a fuss. ”

Nelson Sr. smiled, not holding his own eye.

Lao K was silent for a moment, waved his hand to Chandler, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You come on the field and focus on Z." ”

Oden sat sullenly on the bench, he wanted to open his mouth several times, but he knew that his chances of playing were not high, so he simply did not speak.

The reason why Lao K has not used him for a long time is not only because he is not suitable for the fast-break system, but also because when Lao K requisitioned Oden to play in the World Championships, the uniform team of the Suns went to him, almost tearing his face, and did not let Lao K take him away.

In the end, although the two sides shook hands under the mediation of Colangelo, the Suns' uniform team still asked Lao K not to overuse Oden, after all, the Great's attendance in previous seasons was too amazing.

In this way, Lao K is not a saint after all, and he is also angry in his heart, since your Suns team has put on a posture that I can't win the championship if I don't use Oden hard, then I really don't need Oden, I will prove it to you, without Oden, we have no problem winning the championship.

At the beginning of the second half, the development of the situation made Lao K's judgment shaken.

At the beginning of the game, Durant's long-range shot was interfered with by Sun Yue, and Chamberlain crashed into Chandler, picked off the rebound and threw it to Yi Jianlian, and then rushed quickly across the halfcourt.

After arriving at the front, Yao Ming entered the penalty area, and Chandler returned to the position at the top of the arc of the penalty area, attacking and retreating.

At this time, Chamberlain was about to get the ball outside the three-point line, he took a tentative step forward, and then immediately stepped back, jumped quickly, and hit a three-point shot!

Westbrook organized the attack, West was very active after coming on the field, he ran to the front of the court and accelerated sharply, and pounced on the inside, seeing this, Westbrook threw the ball into the penalty area.

West is also the kind of fierce guy who can fly and dunk, and Chamberlain is so familiar with him that he can guess what shit he is going to pull in which way he is tilting his ass.

In this way, West pulled his foot and ran into the penalty area, Chamberlain jumped up from the flank, and Westbrook's brilliant assist turned into a mistake and was directly caught by Chamberlain.

Originally, West tore through the outside defense and rushed inside, coupled with Westbrook's pass, the fans of the American team were ready to cheer, and there was no doubt that it was a wonderful aerial relay.

As a result, West didn't touch the ball, but he jumped in the air, and subconsciously pulled the hoop hard, making a dunk-like 'Peng Peng' sound, some fans who were far away still cheered, but the players were full of embarrassment.

Chamberlain took the ball off, threw it to Liu Wei on the outside, and ran forward with him.

This time, Liu Wei finally rushed to the front court smoothly, and after entering the three-point line, he didn't waste time, and passed the ball directly to Chamberlain.

Chamberlain received the ball, slashed it to the ground like a wolf, and then jumped like a take-off bomber, and stuffed the ball into the hoop fiercely.

Old K shook his head solemnly from the audience, and couldn't help but get up and shout: "Chandler, follow the nervous Chamberlain!" ”

But how could it be so easy, Durant stepped sideways, suddenly turned and jumped, Chamberlain blocked but jumped too late, and the ball still fell into the hoop.

Looking back, Chamberlain stuck Chandler under the basket to ask for the ball, Yao Ming covered Liu Wei in the high post, and passed to Chamberlain after getting the ball.

After receiving the ball, Chamberlain quickly turned to the flank and broke through, Chandler subconsciously retreated, and Chamberlain also retreated, so that the distance between the two sides was suddenly widened, and Chamberlain jumped up quickly and threw the ball to the hoop.

This time the shot was very urgent, because Chandler blocked in front of him, and West and Westbrook came up to wrap it, and after Chamberlain sent the ball out, he immediately followed up on the ground, and the ball hit the hoop and bounced out.

At this moment, Chamberlain rose into the air, waved his arm just to catch the rebound, and smashed his arm down, another two points.

Old K grabbed his hair in pain, and Chamberlain roared angrily at the sky, and the love between the two was in stark contrast at this moment.

Durant waved his teammates to respond to Chamberlain with a counterattack, this time he personally planned the offense, Chamberlain was indeed led out of the restricted area, only for Westbrook to rush into the basket and shoot, but Yao Ming almost blocked it, and the ball popped up again.

Chandler picked up the rebound and jumped up to make up for the dunk, but after he raised his arms, he passed to the ball with a strong force and slapped it down.

Chamberlain back to the defense!

After blocking, Chamberlain personally advanced with the ball, Liu Wei and others were blocked, and he simply carried the ball through the half.

Lao K stood up all of a sudden and ordered his players to go up and block.

Oxlade-Chamberlain smiled as he played the ball to Yao Ming in the mid-range position, and he cut in from the flank.

The U.S. team came out together to encircle and suppress, Chamberlain suddenly turned around and ran back, Yao Ming cut a step to help him cover, so that the middle was blank, Chamberlain came to a straight smash Huanglong, Yao Ming threw the ball to the inside, Chamberlain got the ball and threw the ball against Chandler, and sent it into the hoop.

10-2！

Chamberlain overtook the score in one fell swoop with a small climax of 10-2, and then the old K couldn't hold it steady and hurriedly called a timeout.

The cheers roared like thunder, and Chamberlain gasped and walked off the field proudly, and a group of players stood on both sides and competed to high-five him.

Old K didn't have a choice, he looked at Chandler with a bitter face, and had to admit that he underestimated the energy of the monster Chamberlain under FIBA rules.

No wonder Nelson Sr. said the sky wasn't his limit!

Now the old K can only pray that it is not too late for him to come to his senses, his eyes swept over the players, and he had to compromise with reality, and said to Oden: "Greg, I will give Z to you!" ”

Oden really wants to scold his mother, is Lao Tzu a night pot? You didn't think of me until you got to the pee point? Everyone can see that the current Chamberlain has a feeling, and he, as Chamberlain's lifelong enemy, can he not understand that whoever blocks Chamberlain at this time will have to be crushed?

Sure enough, after the pause, the Dream Team gave up the fast break because of Oden, Yao Ming locked Oden on the inside, Chamberlain transferred out, the Dream Team shot from a distance and missed the iron, Yao Ming took off the rebound and handed it to Liu Wei.

Advancing to the frontcourt, Chamberlain immediately accelerated to the basket, Oden's defense was more reliable than everyone else, but in the face of Chamberlain in a god-killing state, he was just as powerless!
