Chapter 557: Crashing into Vince Carter
At this moment, between the transition between offense and defense, the fast attack of the American team has begun, and Da Zhi and Da Yao are both dragging behind the two teams.
Carter held the ball in the middle and advanced quickly, at this time Zhou Quan blocked in front, and Hu Weidong hurriedly ran to Ray Allen on the right wing.
Carter didn't hesitate, immediately passed the ball to Ray Allen, and after Ray Allen received the ball, Hu Weidong was still one step away from him, and he immediately accelerated his speed to cross the halfway line and hit the frontcourt.
Zhou Quan returned to the penalty area from the top of the arc, and Carter stopped at the top of the arc.
Ray Allen quickly crossed the right-wing three-point line, and Hu Weidong had already caught up by this time, he suddenly made a sharp stop, pulled back to the three-point line, and then completed a three-point jumper before Hu Weidong returned.
"Brush!"
There was a splash and a three-point shot.
"Ouch, that's accurate! He was the second three-pointer, making two of four shots. Xu Ji became a Taoist.
Zhang Li said: "If the feeling comes, you will be strangled immediately." However, he didn't kill it just now, I'm afraid it was also related to eating Zhou Quan's two big hats before, so he was afraid.
This is a good thing, indicating that Zhou Quan's three blocks have erected a threat to the American team, and if they dare to rush in, they will be capped. ”
Xu Jicheng nodded, returned to the topic just now, and said: "Zhou Quan's training time in the national team is short, only ten days, he and Da Yao should not form a tacit understanding, and this cooperation just now may be a tactical cooperation." ”
Zhang Li nodded and said: "So far, there have been no all-star centers with excellent offense in the center position of Zhou Quan's team, they are all blue-collar centers, and now Da Zhi and Da Yao are biased towards the offensive type, I hope they can play more good matches." ”
At 8:13, the Chinese team attacked.
Zhou Quan approached the top of the arc and made a tactical gesture.
So big that he suddenly came up from the low post on the right wing and was ready to do a pick-and-roll, but when he ran to the right end of the free throw line, he suddenly turned around and went down.
"Not good!"
Mourning followed and quickly turned around, but he had already lost his defensive position, so big that he was stuck in front of him, closer to the basket, and he knew he was in trouble.
At this moment, Zhou Quan made a pass to the ground, and the ball passed from Lei Allen's side and passed to Dazhi's hands.
It was as big as catching the ball and stepping up and putting the ball in the basket with great ease.
"Beautiful! It was so easy! Zhang Cheng shouted excitedly.
"It's definitely a specially trained tactical fit." Xu Jicheng is sure of authenticity.
In fact, they guessed correctly, Zhou Quan encountered Da Zhi Da Yao, two center forwards with great offensive talent, how could he let go of the opportunity to play tactical cooperation with them?
Da Zhi's offense is quite aura, comprehensive skills, and Da Yao has an absolute high advantage, solid basic skills, strong finishing ability under the basket, both of them have a high ball quotient, only more than ten days, and he has formed some tactical tacit understanding.
For example, the high-position blocking and dismantling tactics, as well as the anti-running inward cutting tactics that Da Yao Dazhi has just played once, are all very well used.
These tactics can avoid Da Yao's weakness of lack of confrontation ability now, give full play to their strengths, and match his passes, which can definitely kill all sides.
At 8:15, the U.S. team attacked.
Although the bounce ability and explosiveness are off the charts, Vince Carter's athleticism is actually overrated, the speed is average, and his ability to break through with the ball is also average.
His breakthrough is generally unclean and easy to follow, so when he came to the top of the arc, he called Garnett's high block, and then broke through.
Hu Weidong bypassed Garnett behind him and caught up with Carter, but by this time Carter had already flown up, and he had just returned to the basket from the right waist position.
"Bang!"
In the next moment, it was as big as a jump cover, but it was directly blocked.
"Yikes!"
After his victory, Vince Carter threw his fist in excitement and shouted angrily.
"The individual ability of these stars of the Dream Four team is really strong, and they can't be prevented!" Sun Zhenping sighed.
"They don't want point guards, they just want to play individual ability, and rely on individual single-handedness to eat us." Xu Jicheng said a little unhappily.
Zhang Reasonable said with a smile: "When it comes to personal ability, Zhou Quan is the strongest one, and he is so strong that he is unique, so strong that he has no solution."
The attacks of Rahim, Carter, Ray Allen, and Garnett are still 108,000 miles away. ”
The other two nodded again and again, and Xu Jicheng said: "Now Zhou Quan and Da Yao Dazhi can also play together, the success rate is very high, our attack is no problem at all, just fight like this, Da Yao Dazhi goes down, Zhou Quan takes over the attack, and there is still no solution." ”
Sun Zhenping said with a smile: "Everyone fights for offensive efficiency, and the side that fights alone and has no organizational ability will definitely suffer in the end." ”
"Now we still have a problem, we have to be more effective in our defense, we have to be quicker, from the moment their ball-handler is close to the three-point line," Zhang said.
They don't have a point guard, they have limited playmaking, they have limited passing ability, and we can force them to make mistakes when we contain them. ”
"Yes, that's it." Sun Zhenping said busily.
Next, the two sides failed to attack once, then the Chinese team attacked, the American team fouled, and the Chinese team took advantage of the dead ball opportunity to replace Da Zhi and Sun Jun, and went on Bart and Liu Yudong.
Liu Yudong's mid-pitch is accurate, but the injury is too serious, and now his knees are estimated to be shattered into slag, and every time he runs, he feels a pain in his heart.
Zhou Quan once persuaded him to borrow money to let him go to the United States for surgery, where the medical conditions were better, but the result of the operation may be retirement, and the medical expenses there are too high, so it has been delayed.
In this Olympic Games, except for the first game in the group stage, he played for a few minutes in the United States, and he had few opportunities in other games and did not perform much.
"Lao Liu, run the vacant position, I want your mid-pitch." When Zhou Quan saw Liu Yudong coming up, he ran over and said to him.
"Okay, I'll wait for your pass." Liu Yudong nodded.
The Chinese national team served on the left sideline of the frontcourt, Zhou Quan received the ball outside the top of the arc in the middle, and saw Liu Yudong moving on the left wing, so he immediately broke through with the ball from the top of the left arc.
Although Ray Allen's defense is good, he is some distance away from Kobe Bryant, and he can't prevent Zhou Quan at all.
When Zhou Quan burst into the left elbow area, Mourning in the right waist position moved a step to the basket, and Garnett, who was low on the left wing, made a supplementary defense, and was likely to be caught by the two top defensive interior lines, even he may suffer, so he immediately pulled to the left wing.
Rahim, who was on the left, saw that he had a good opportunity and immediately came over.
In this way, Liu Yudong was empty, and Zhou Quan's ball was passed over in time.
"Huh!"
Liu Yudong received the ball, immediately shot and hit.
"Liu Yudong throws this kind of vacant ball is the most reassuring, and he can shoot it with his eyes closed." Sun Zhenping said with a smile.
"It's just that the injury is too bad, and the examination said that there are broken bones in the knee, not just one, but many pieces." Xu Jicheng sighed.
"How much does that hurt?" Zhang Li sighed.
At 10:17, the U.S. team attacked.
Zhou Quan is still on the side of Lei Allen, and the defensive position is in the right elbow area, because Lei Allen's shooting is good, and the position is a little outside.
According to the joint defense tactics, he fixed that piece on the defensive end, the ball is not guarded, but the ball is passed, as long as there is no ball in the hands of Ray Allen, you can put it for a while, don't put it too far.
Carter held the ball, and just approached the top of the arc, Hu Weidong suddenly stepped up to grab.
This gave Zhou Quan the opportunity, and he immediately reacted defensively and came over to wrap it up.
Carter dodged Hu Weidong's frontal pressing, and when he saw the Iron Fist King coming, he panicked a little and immediately passed the ball to Ray Allen.
But his behavior was already expected by Zhou Quan, and Zhou Quan's behavior of wrapping can be said to force him to pass the ball to Ray Allen, so after running to Carter, he immediately changed direction.
"Smack!"
At this time, Carter's ball came out, and he reached out with his big hand, cut right into the passing route, and cut the ball off.
"Beautiful! The ball is broken, Zhou Quan is broken! Xu Jicheng shouted excitedly.
Carter was in a hurry, turned around and ran.
He returned to the defense from the middle, but he entered the basket before Zhou Quan, but at this time, Zhou Quan had already killed from his left elbow and flew up against him.
"It's over!"
Seeing the Iron Fist King who was like a flying tiger in the sky, at this moment, he was a little confused.
What am I doing here? Am I crazy, what are I doing running under the basket? Defense is my business, I'm not a defensive warrior, am I not going to die? Damn, I must be crazy!
"Bang!"
At the same time as the basket was exploded, under the huge impact, Vince Carter was directly knocked away by Zhou Quan.
"Bang!"
After falling to the floor, Vince Carter slipped a few more meters backwards and crashed directly into the media gallery, where a crowd suddenly flipped on his back, toppling three reporters and two cameras.
"Oh!"
Loud exclamations swept through the stadium like a whirlwind.
"Click, click, click......"
But this did not affect other media reporters, and at this time, they excitedly waved the shutter in their hands and shot at Zhou Quan non-stop.
Vince Carter is not the one he was before the Olympics, and in the group stage, Vince Carter flew past French center Frederick Weiss to complete a world-shattering death dunk, and is now well-known around the world.
But such a person was knocked away in Zhou Quan's dunk, which gave people a great sense of shock.
Seeing Vince Carter being knocked away by the Iron Fist King, Ray Allen was dumbfounded, and his heart was trembling, if it was my turn, wouldn't I have to be knocked away? You know, he was the first person to target the Iron Fist King, and Carter took it for him.
"Zhou Quan's dunk is too violent, haha......" Xu Jicheng laughed.
"I'm strange, Vince Carter usually doesn't work so defense, just now this is not hard work, but he doesn't even want his life." Zhang Reasonable said suspiciously.
"Puff ......"
Sun Zhenping couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
"He's probably in a hurry, too." Xu Jicheng said with a smile.
On the TNT commentary seat, Kenny Smith lamented: "Iron Fist King, be merciful, Vince Carter is also a rising star anyway, the league will need him in the future, don't hurt him."
Carter is also impulsive, just a ball, can't decide the outcome of the game, let the Iron Fist King dunk, you can't prevent it and it's not ashamed, Jordan can't prevent such a dunk, and besides, if you run in, just stand there stupidly, and you don't make a blocking action? ”
Barkley scolded: "He's sick in the head, don't talk about him in this situation, Garnett and Mourning could be knocked out of the way." ”
Kenny Smith nodded, "After a long sprint, the impact of the Iron Fist King can definitely knock Garnett and Mourning, even if it is a big shark, it can be knocked over." ”
In the press room, with the help of Ray Allen, Vince Carter tried to get up, but there was a tingling sensation in his chest, and he finally sat up, his face already pale.
"Vince, muscle strain or broken bone?" Zhou Quan, who was standing on the side, asked.
Carter glanced at Zhou Quan, covered his right chest with a wheezing breath, and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid that your ribs have been broken a few times, and your back muscles are also a little painful." ”
"Team doctor, a few broken ribs, on a stretcher."
Zhou Quan immediately turned around and shouted at the U.S. bench.
"Damn it!"
Even a person as elegant as Tomjanovich couldn't help but burst into foul language.
Although the Dream Four team is also full of talents, but after getting rid of three point guards and four interior lines, there are only five people in the second and third positions, and second-rate star Steve Smith He doesn't want to use it at all, and now Carter is wasted, he can only replace Alan Houston, and if he is injured, he can only use Smith.
Carter's injury seems to have hit the defensive will of the Dream Four team, and then the defensive intensity of the Dream Four team has dropped significantly, especially Lei Allen, who is responsible for defending Zhou Quan.
In this case, at the end of the first quarter, at 18:29, the Chinese team had a lead of 11 points.
In the second quarter, the U.S. team used a stronger lineup to start chasing points, but it chased 6 points and trailed by 5 points.
But in the third quarter, Da Yao returned to the court, and they and Zhou Quan once again widened the difference to double digits.
At 72:84, the Chinese team led by 12 points.
At the end of the quarter, the two sides entered the decisive stage.
