Chapter 147: He's a rookie
Lowry came up front with the ball, Anthony asked for the ball on the flank, and the other members opened up space for him.
Gua Ge faced Zhou Qi's defense, dribbled to open up space, and pulled out a jump shot.
'Bang-'
'Beep-'
When the basketball popped out of the frame, the referee blew the whistle, and Zhou Qi's outstretched arms when defending were wrapped around Anthony and hit Guago's chin, but it was Jordan Jr. who grabbed the rebound and pushed people to foul under the basket.
Zhou Qi was a little scared and looked at Lei Lei with an innocent face.
The latter smiled slightly to signal Zhou Qi to rest assured, he patted Brother Gua's junior and said, "It's okay." ”
"It's okay, for your little brother's sake, I won't say anything."
Lei Lei was polite on the surface, but scolded in his heart: MD, old rascal!
Since the number of fouls was full, Zou Yuchen directly made free throws.
Hit both free throws.
41:55
Allen Guo pressed all over the court and began to stay on foot after Lowry received the serve.
Seeing this, Anthony slowed down and helped Lowry block Allen Guo, who accelerated with the ball.
Allen Guo bypassed Anthony, but didn't notice that Jordan Jr. had already done a good job of blocking and dismantling at the top of the arc, just waiting for him to hit up.
Lowry used the pick-and-roll to get to the free throw line, and the Chinese team shrank the inside and didn't give him any chance to hit the basket, resulting in Anthony being unguarded by the follow-up.
Lowry split the ball to the top of the arc and Anthony caught the ball from beyond the three-point line.
The basketball brushed the pot on the basket and jumped out of the frame.
Zou Yuchen grabbed the defensive rebound and looked for Lei Lei.
He received the pass and advanced quickly, faced the two-man bag at 45 degrees outside the three-point line, used Jordan Jr.'s physical confrontation to block Lowry, and rebounded under the basket.
'Brush-'
43:55
The basketball was placed securely in the basket by him.
Little Jordan was stuck in his ass and couldn't touch the basketball.
While the rest of the Chinese team was still celebrating, Barnes had already hit the front court and Lowry made a long pass from the baseline.
Lei Lei shouted on the field: "Back to defense, quickly back to defense!" ”
But to no avail, Barnes received a pass up front and smashed it in the face of an empty box.
43:57
Guo Allen came to the front court with the ball and shouted: "Zipper, zipper!" ”
Zou Yuchen stepped forward to block and dismantle it, the eldest nephew just passed the defender, the referee's whistle sounded again, covering the foul, the United States possessed the ball, and the whistle continued in the second quarter.
As soon as the U.S. team served, Allen Guo came out from behind Lowry, stealing the serve and throwing the ball forward.
After Lei Lei noticed Guo Allen's steal, he had already run to the front court non-stop, but the quality of his eldest nephew's pass was not good, he received a pass near the free throw line, turned around and hit a layup.
45:57
After the Chinese team scored frequently in this formation, the defense was a little lax.
Lowry held the ball and advanced quickly and passed to Barnes, who was 45° from the three-point line, and he had the ball out.
Durant also arrived, and in the face of Lei Lei's defense, he did not rush to shoot, but threw the basketball into the air.
'Bang-'
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!
!
”
Jordan Jr., who followed up, jumped high and grabbed the basketball and smashed it into the basket, once again igniting the emotions of the audience.
In the last attack of the second quarter, Guo Allen slowly came to the front court and heard Li Nan shouting: "Fight Lei Lei!"
He didn't dare not listen, so he had to pass the ball over.
Lei Lei received a pass on the flank, and the other members opened up space for him to attack.
He put the ball behind him and watched the time on the scoreboard go by.
In the final 3 seconds, he jumped high and threw the ball out of the air in defiance of Barnes' defense.
'Both-'
'Bang-'
Lei Lei pressed the whistle and shot the iron.
The first half of the game is over
45:59
The U.S. led by 14 points heading into halftime.
At halftime, Gong Luming didn't say much, because the physical strength of the other members of the Chinese team was about to bottom out, so he made a request to hand over the ball to Lei Lei's hands.
The American team was different, Green took the lead in the locker room: "The strength of the Chinese team is vulnerable, the physical strength of the other members of them has bottomed out, as long as we guard against Lei Lei, we will win another big victory." ”
"He's just a rookie, and his strength isn't enough to change the outcome of the game, so why worry about him?"
Ou Shenxian couldn't get used to Lei Lei, and he was very inflated to win the championship this year.
"No, Kyrie, Ray is not an ordinary rookie, he was the scoring champion last season, there are a few in NBA history who can win the scoring title when he first enters the league, double team, I remember you don't seem to be this year, right?"
Paul George replied directly, who made him have a good relationship with Lei Lei.
Just when Irving was about to refute, Coach K came in, he heard the players' conversation at the door "cough cough", cleared his throat and said: "The main defensive task in the second half is to prevent the thunder of the Chinese team, I have watched a lot of his game videos, although he has only played in the NBA for a year now, but I know that his future achievements are more than that, he is still a little immature, I hope everyone must do his defensive work in the second half!" ”
When the players of the U.S. men's basketball team heard Coach K say this, they must have done so, and none of the players present disrespected him.
Owen saw that his former college coach had spoken, and he couldn't resist it.
······
The second half began.
"CCTV, CCTV! Audience friends, welcome to watch the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics men's basketball group stage Chinese team against the United States team, the first half of the game, the Chinese team was 45:59 behind, the United States team began to be relatively relaxed in the second half, they did not send their better lineup, or the starting lineup. ”
When Yu Jia was explaining, Lei Lei at the scene also found that the American men's basketball team was not in the starting lineup.
Durant and others were sitting on the bench in long-sleeved undershirts, and he said to the Chinese players: "MD, those people don't look down on us, wait for them to break this rotten lineup." ”
"I agree with what Ah Lei said."
Yi Jianlian also found this problem when he came to the field and agreed very much.
The other three saw that the two cores of the team were talking, they had to listen, and they didn't feel comfortable in their hearts, they didn't even play the most powerful lineup, they really didn't treat us as people.
Chinese team: Zhao Jiwei, Lei Lei, Ding Yanyuhang, Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi.
The lineup for the second half of the United States is: Lowry, DeRozan, Paul George, Jimmy Butler, Jordan Jr.
The Chinese team has the ball
When Zhao Jiwei controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt, Lei Lei used Yi Jianlian's off-ball block from the penalty area to run to 45 degrees outside the three-point line to receive Zhao Jiwei's pass.
Yi Jianlian reached out for the ball in the low post in the face of Butler's defense, and Lei Lei immediately hoisted the ball in and took away the defender to open up the offensive space for him.
Yi Jianlian received the pass, hit Butler twice, and turned over to shoot a jumper.
Jordan Jr. grabbed the rebound and passed it to Lowry.
The latter quickly counterattacked with the ball, and faced Zhou Qi's defense from the back court to the front court, causing fouls and two free throws.
He made 1 of 2 free throws, and Zhou Qi protected the defensive rebound to find Zhao Jiwei.
The latter came to the front court with the ball and handed the ball to Lei Lei, who was standing at 45°.
Paul George opened his arms and pressed the defense tightly, not giving him any space to attack.
"Hey, the defensive intensity has come up, is this the George I know, arranged by the old K?"
"Hmph, I just want to have a good fight with you."
Lei Lei heard George say this, and shouted at his teammates: "Pull away, pull away, pull away!" ”
The members of the Chinese team immediately opened up the space and gave him plenty of space to attack.
He dribbled back to give himself a better space to break through, and in the face of George's defense, he constantly dribbled under his crotch to find space to break through.
He uses the shaking of his body and head to dribble under his crotch and make a feint to dribble to the left side.
Sure enough, Paul George was fooled.
He then crossed the dribble to the right side.
Paul George said secretly: Why is his crossover improving again!
'Brush-'
Lei Lei used the change of direction to pass the defender and made a quick stop in the middle distance to score the ball.
