Chapter 294: The Key to Winning!
"Are you sure you can win the final?"
After playing the semifinals and advancing to the finals, the basketball management center, and even the bigger leaders, came to Doane to ask about the situation.
For the outcome of the next men's basketball finals, everyone is undoubtedly very concerned.
And the person who can predict the outcome of the final, except for Doon, I am afraid that there is no one else.
After all, experts pay lip service, and sports still depend on the players themselves in order to truly "predict the future".
"If you ask me if I have the confidence to win, I certainly have.
Before the game started, we had a five-to-five game with the Dream Eight team, at least the first three quarters will definitely not be much worse.
But if I had to predict the outcome of the game, I'm afraid there would only be a win rate of one or two percent.
It depends on my performance and the shots of other teammates who can go above and beyond. ”
Doon replied honestly, not saying anything big.
By this time, however, Doon had already guessed the purpose of the leaders' visit.
The Olympic Games at home are just like that, and the fans and people hope to win the championship in the three major events, and that's it.
It can only be said that this Olympic Games is very critical now, and the whole world is focused on the imperial capital.
This is an opportunity to soar, and the leaders naturally hope to take advantage of this opportunity to give the best answer at this time period.
Instead of another twenty or thirty years, regain the qualification to host the Olympic Games and become the world's number one sports power.
"To tell you the truth, five against five, our odds of winning are very small, but eight against five is not necessarily.
In fact, you don't need to be too much at the home whistle, just stare at the stars of the Dream Team and blow the steps.
NBA stars are often used to having some faults because they are treated preferentially.
Many stars have the problem of walking, and if the referee stares at Kobe, he can also find out some situations that start walking.
If you are staring at the forward players of the Dream Eight team, watching them switch attacks, or break through with the ball, you can also catch some footage of walking.
And as long as they blow a few more of these balls at the beginning, their mentality will definitely be affected.
In this way, you don't have to wait until the fourth quarter to play the role of the home whistle, which makes the game look ugly. ”
Doon said, giving advice to the leaders.
Doon has long seen that if he didn't want the men's basketball gold medal, there was no need for the leaders to come to Doon.
Then, in order to help the men's basketball team increase the chances of winning the finals, there is only one last way left, and that is the host advantage.
I have to say that everyone's thoughts are actually the same.
Doon also wants this gold medal, after all, this is Doon's only chance in this life, and if you don't grasp it, you will never have a chance.
Even with home field advantage, so what? Honors with controversy are also honors.
Some people, many shrinkage champions, and they still advocate the first person all day long. The media and fans are still blowing nonsense.
Hey, just entertain yourself and you're done! After winning the gold medal, as long as there is enough publicity, it will always be able to drive the people who don't know the truth to eat melons, so that they can follow the performance of the men's basketball team in this Olympic Games.
In other words, in fact, the men's basketball team has been able to reach the finals smoothly along the way, and several games have been played because of the help of the referees.
It's just that the Chinese people are more face-saving, and if other Asian countries host the Olympic Games, the black whistle has long been blatant.
How can you want a gold medal like this Olympics, use the advantages of the host, but still hide it as much as possible. The real results are more due to the outstanding performance of the players.
And whether a big event like men's basketball, which has attracted more attention, can use the advantages of the host country, it also needs to consider international public opinion.
In particular, the opponent of the men's basketball team is still the dream team from the world's No. 1 power.
"I can only tell you that referees have a huge impact on the game of basketball."
Doon finally persuaded him again, and then he had to return to the role of a player.
The next afternoon, when the men's basketball team started training again and was about to prepare for tomorrow's finals, Doon gathered everyone together again and said something similar to what had been done to hold everyone's breath before.
Fortunately, Doon was a little worried.
For the group stage loss to the Dream Team, everyone is indeed a little resentful.
After all, Doon played well at the beginning, and the men's basketball team gained an advantage in the first three quarters.
If you can maintain your form and continue to tie with the Dream Team in the fourth quarter, then you can already dream of a gold medal by now.
It is precisely because of the loss in the group stage that they have no face, and everyone wants to win the next final.
As Doon said before, to win the final and win the gold medal is something that will go down in history.
In particular, everyone's opponent is still the Dream Team!
Once they can beat the Dream Eight team, everyone in the men's basketball team can blow for a lifetime.
Even Doon, who has become the first active player in the NBA, can lead the team to defeat the Dream Team at the World Championship, which is worthy of a lot of fantasy and bragging.
……
On August 24, at 12 noon, the Olympic men's basketball competition continued to be played at the Wukesong Gymnasium.
The first match for the bronze medal today will be between Spain and Lithuania.
After a big battle, the Spanish team won the bronze medal by 8 points.
In a way, Spain's victory also reduced the controversy in the outside media about the men's basketball team's advancement to the finals.
After the men's basketball team defeated the Lithuanian team, many media around the world questioned that the men's basketball team was lucky to advance to the finals because of the host's advantage.
Now that Spain have beaten Lithuania and the men's basketball team has beaten Spain early in the group stage, it is enough to say something.
Of course, the next finals between the men's basketball team and the Dream Eight team may revive conspiracy theories and even escalate again.
The time soon came to 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and both the men's basketball team and the Dream Eight team entered the court half an hour in advance to warm up and actively prepare for the game.
However, tonight's domestic media reporters were very active, it was supposed to be the warm-up time for the players of the two final teams, and the reporters kept looking for the players of the Dream Eight team for interviews.
The foreign reporters in the venue also seemed to be more interested in Doon and Yao Ming, and reporters from different countries constantly came to interview Doon and Yao Ming, during which they threw out and exchanged many topics.
The forces behind the two sides of the competition coincidentally used off-the-board tricks to try to consume the warm-up time of the opponent's main players and affect the players' game status.
But after all, today is playing at Wukesong Gymnasium, and the men's basketball team still has a home advantage.
It didn't take long for the on-site staff to intervene and end the foreign media's interview with Doon and Yao Ming ahead of schedule.
On the other side, Kobe, James and others are still boasting in front of the camera.
In contrast, the two core players of the men's basketball team are naturally more adequate in terms of warm-up.
It is worth mentioning that in fact, after finishing eating at noon, the men's basketball players warmed up in other training halls early.
It took more than two hours to prepare before I took the car to this stadium.
Now this half-hour warm-up time is just to re-move the body.
The only thing to pay attention to now is to pay attention to energy and hydration during the race.
After all, I have warmed up for so long before, and if I look at the game time, when I finish this final, it will almost be time to eat.
Men's basketball players exercise so much, if you don't replenish your energy during the game, you will definitely be hungry!
So how to replenish energy during the competition is very important!
And if the glucose is dried, it will also be distracted by sleepiness and affect the performance of both offensive and defensive ends.
Doon is more experienced in this, and after the warm-up, he went back to the locker room to eat two bananas, and after the game, he drank a special drink to enhance his endurance.
The rest of the men's basketball team also had their own preparations, and Doon didn't intervene too much.
As everyone was ready and time was running out, the men's basketball team returned to the sidelines, and the starting five tigers gradually walked to the center of the stage.
It was Yi Jianlian and Howard who jumped the ball again, and the final result naturally didn't skip.
But it wasn't a big problem, Kidd dribbled the ball over half court and handed the ball to Kobe, who tried to single Doon, but only to consume the ball and give it to James.
James was just about to call for a block after receiving the ball, but because of "serving vegetables", he was blown a wrist flip.
With his hands spread, he argued with the referee.
The men's basketball team won the next offensive possession, and the Dream Eight team returned to the backcourt en masse.
Doon knew that he didn't have to exert much effort in the first half, and the men's basketball team could also wrestle his wrist with the Dream Eight team.
So he attracted the defense at the top of the arc, let Liu Wei hang the ball to Yao Ming, and let Yao Ming take the ball and single Howard first.
The Dream Eight team paid attention to the two points of Dune and Yao Ming, and knew that Yao Ming could not be allowed to play an effect.
So as soon as Liu Wei dropped the ball, Kidd hit the inside.
Yao Ming played very smartly and passed the ball back to Liu Wei, who did not hesitate to receive the ball and shot directly into three points.
Brush –
The hand rises and falls, and there is it as soon as it comes.
The rest of the men's basketball team made three-pointers at the beginning of the game, which is undoubtedly excellent news for this round of finals.
However, after the Dream Eight team defeated the men's basketball team in the group stage, they have already determined a set of practical winning tactics.
The Dream Eight team quickly launched a fast attack, the men's basketball team desperately returned to defense, and was shrinking back to the basket, and the referee shot again and blew a Kobe to start walking.
In fact, not only Kobe, but many NBA stars, when receiving the ball, they will adjust their center of gravity in small steps, so that when they start to break through, the opponent will be unable to guard against it.
If you really want to think about it, Jordan also has a lot of this situation.
It can only be said that for the sake of game fluency, no one cares about this kind of small step in the NBA.
Especially for players who are heavier but have the ability to break through with the ball, if this kind of ball is blown all the time, they will not be able to play the game.
But at FIBA, no one is used to it.
What's more, tonight's referee has been taken care of in advance, so be sure to keep an eye on these small details.
Of course, after being blown off his wrist and walking, and he is also a hot star in the NBA, some domestic fans at the scene also felt that there was a problem with the punishment, was it too harsh?
And the fans who are watching this game on the outside net, it will be more of a black whistle controversy.
However, the domestic film crew was taken care of in advance, and all the penalty shots had to be played back.
The audience in front of the TV will see it more clearly, and the penalty is fine.
It's just that it will be a little difficult for the players and coaching staff of the Dream Eight team to accept.
After all, the previous group stage and knockout rounds were not so blown, and suddenly blowing so strictly, it felt like it was the right thing to be done by the organizers.
So, James spread his hands, Kobe Bryant began to shrug his shoulders, and the players of the Dream Eight team were dissatisfied with the referee.
And the men's basketball players naturally have no opinion on this and continue to play normally.
even with the help of the ball given by the Dream Eight team, the difference between the points was quickly widened.
However, the adjustment of the Dream Eight team is also relatively fast, and the mistakes of walking and wrist flips are controllable.
As the players of the Dream Eight team on the field adjusted themselves, the referee couldn't catch their pigtails, and the game also entered the formal confrontation of real knives and guns.
Fortunately, the men's basketball team in the first half was not weaker than any team in the world.
At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 22-18.
relied on the referee to keep an eye on the pace and small movements of the players of the Dream Eight team, so as to make Kobe Bryant and others uncomfortable.
Coupled with taking advantage of the mistakes of the Dream Eight team to get more balls, the men's basketball team took a four-point lead in the first quarter.
To a certain extent, the referee helped, and the men's basketball team did not open up the point difference, and the men's basketball team did not play well enough.
However, Doon didn't contribute much in the first quarter, scoring only four points.
And in order to allow Yao Ming to have more rest, Doon's playing time was adjusted, and he only played more than 6 minutes in the first quarter.
And in the next second quarter, he was ready to play as much as he could.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Doon continued to use high post blocking to get into the interior, either attacking himself or feeding his teammates on the inside.
Under the leadership of Doon, the men's basketball team played two waves of 7-2 and 8-3 small climaxes in a row, and the score difference suddenly approached 15 points.
Because of Doon's excellent performance, even if he is an old K, he has to call a timeout to adjust the lineup and defensive strategy against Doon.
However, there are simply too many offensive means in Doon's arsenal.
At the end of the timeout, Doon noticed Prince coming on the court, and at the same time, the Dream Eight team played a joint defense, so he ran decisively without the ball.
Although Doon played without the ball, and the teammates of the men's basketball team were also a little uncomfortable, the Dream Eight team also missed some balls from others because their attention was always on Doon.
Seriously, the IQ of the men's basketball players playing is okay.
Liu Wei relied on the ability of Du En and Yao Ming to attract defense, relied on the ball in his hands, played a two-person turn with Yao Ming, and stole several goals with the help of Yao Ming's pass.
In addition, Li Nan and Wang Shipeng, who came on as substitutes, also played to a certain extent.
At the end of the second quarter, the men's basketball team had stretched the difference to 17 points, and the score on the court came to 57-40.
It is worth mentioning that the number of free throws made by the men's basketball team and the Dream Eight team is 8 to 13.
Although the on-site referee is helping the men's basketball team, if you really want to talk about black whistles, there is really no one.
After halftime, the third quarter of the game was fast in coming.
Because of the pressure of chasing points, the Dream Eight team constantly blocked and dismantled, broke through the inside line, and ensured the hit rate.
However, it is easy for a covering player to move his feet or use his hips and arms to stop his pursuers in order to create a better scoring opportunity for his teammates.
The on-site referee was worried that he couldn't find a chance, and now he had something to do.
The Dream Eight team was blown again because they were behind, and they expressed their dissatisfaction more and more.
The men's basketball team took the opportunity to expand the score difference to more than 20 points, although soon due to the decline in physical strength, the scoring ability declined, and the score difference was narrowed by the Dream Eight team.
However, from the third quarter, the men's basketball team has consciously lowered the pace of the game.
"Three points at the whistle!"
"Doon's ball is too crucial!"
"After this goal was hit, the difference came to 17 points again, and Doon's performance was fantastic!"
With three seconds left in the third quarter, Doon hit a three-pointer to help the men's basketball team consolidate its 17-point lead.
The fans at the scene also roared because of Doon's explosive three-point shot, and constantly put pressure on the Dream Eight team.
Because Lao K didn't call a timeout, there were still 3 seconds left in the game, Paul didn't want to waste the opportunity, so while the men's basketball team was still celebrating, he immediately picked up the ball, and then made a long pass to Wade, who ran to the frontcourt.
However, this small action did not hide from the men's basketball players, nor did it hide from the fans at the scene.
"Defense, defense, defense!"
"There's more than a dog trying to steal chickens!"
"Wade ran back, chase after him!"
Seeing Paul go to pick up the ball, the voices of fans at the scene reminding the men's basketball team to be careful came and went.
The men's basketball players on the court actually did not relax, and immediately returned to defense when they noticed this scene, and Wade was pinched as soon as he got the ball.
Because of the urgency of time and the fact that Wade does not have too strong three-point ability, Wade, who is still three or four steps away from the three-point line at this time, can only pass the ball to other teammates.
James played the transition aggressively, but just as James received the ball, Doon defended it.
This made James, who was originally going to go to the basket to score two points, was stunned, and then hesitantly looked for other teammates with the ball, and did not pass the ball until the game time was over.
In this regard, Paul, who ran to the frontcourt, was a little speechless: "Why don't you vote?" ”
James was still holding the ball, and he stopped talking, and finally didn't explain anything. (End of chapter)
