Larry Brown arranged such a tactical strategy and deliberately did not let his team play 100% of its combat power, for the simple reason that Harris was afraid that Harris would send Chen Feng on the court early.

The Huaguo team had previously sent Chen Feng to play when the team was behind by a large score, and if the Huaguo team was not far behind, considering that Chen Feng would have to participate in other games next, it was very likely that he would not be allowed to play.

Larry Brown has this mentality and tactical arrangement to know that his team is playing, and there is no way for him to do so. Chen Feng's scoring ability is too strong, so strong that even if he adopts a multi-person wrap-up defense, his sharp three-point shot makes the opponent desperate. Larry Brown also didn't have much confidence that his players could defend Chen Feng, so he could only adopt such a passive tactic.

Fortunately, for now, Larry Brown's strategy still worked, at least Harris didn't let Chen Feng play, and the first half ended with the United States team still leading by eight points. Of course, in order not to affect morale, Larry Brown certainly did not say that he was afraid of Chen Feng, and you are not Chen Feng's opponents, but in terms of tactical arrangement, a certain amount of Cheng dù limited the offensive scoring ability of the main scorers of the team, so that they played a little awkward with each other, and the cooperation was not very good, and the game was not very smooth. Sometimes, they are at most two people playing together, not five, and even three people are not often playing.

This situation is also a common problem of the Mi national team, with strong personal ability, but lack of cooperation, so if the opponent adopts full-court joint defense and pressing, plus the opponent is a big tall man, and the defense is tough and rough. Then the Mi national team will suffer. Previously, they were beaten by this kind of team with a full-court defense and a tough style in the group stage. And lost two games.

And Larry Brown did not deliberately let the players strengthen the cooperation between the players this time, but made Duncan and Iverson a little unsmooth on the inside and outside, which affected their performance. However, even so, the individual ability of the two is undoubted, and they still scored a lot of points, so that after the first half, they took the lead of the Huaguo team.

The second half that followed. Larry Brown was still worried that Chen Feng would play, so he did not make adjustments to the lineup and tactics.

Harris is generally satisfied with the team's on-field table this time, although it is eight points behind, but you must know that the opponent is a dream team, although their strength this session has been greatly reduced, but everyone knows that it is not without Chen Feng's Huaguo team can eat, and it is rare to be able to play like this in the first half.

Therefore, at halftime, Harris gave a certain amount of praise and affirmation to the previous players on the court, and the overall tactics were not adjusted, but a certain amount of key explanations and additions were made in the details. Meantime. Although the team is eight points behind, Harris has no plans to send Chen Feng on the court for the time being. Originally, it is a bit unrealistic for a team to rely entirely on one person's performance. After all, basketball is an overall sport, just like Jordan at the beginning, if there is no cooperation from teammates, he will still lose, and although Chen Feng seems to be able to kill the opponent by himself, this is obviously not basketball, at least not the basketball in Harris's mind.

Therefore, although he worked out the No. 1 tactic before, in fact, what he values most is the No. 2 tactic, that is, Chen Feng and Yao Ming cooperate with the inside and outside, and the inside and outside line blossom together. Chen Feng had been ordered to play several times before, and the situation was too urgent, so Harris had to use the No. 1 tactic all the time to let Chen Feng play his greatest combat power and scoring ability.

As a result, everyone saw that Chen Feng lived up to expectations, relying on his personal super three-point scoring ability to help the team turn defeat into victory and defeat the opponent directly.

This is what Harris wants to see, and what he doesn't want to see, what he wants to see is of course that his team wins, and what he doesn't want to see is that Chen Feng's personal performance completely overshadows the coaching achievements of the other members of the team, including him as a head coach^.

In particular, the coaches of other national teams directly or indirectly ridiculed the Chinese team as a one-man team after the game, before and after the game, and the coach of such a team can win in the end even if he is a ~ idiot.

This statement made Harris, the best coach in the NBA that year, of course very uncomfortable.

The last time they won the game against Serbia and Montenegro without Chen Feng playing, not only the players were very excited, but also Harris himself, so the victory in that game can be said to fully reflect his coaching level, especially the last-minute comeback to win, and it can be said that Harris is the credit.

But even if the Serbian and Montenegro team has the title of defending champion in this Olympic Games, it is actually a real fish belly team, and the strength of all more than a dozen teams is at the bottom, and winning such a defending champion is actually not very convincing, and it cannot prove how strong the Huaguo team is without Chen Feng.

Therefore, Harris attaches great importance to the match between the Huaguo team and the dream team, before the game, he had no intention of letting Chen Feng play in the first half, unless the score is behind, he will choose to send Chen Feng up, and he will not let him play if he can not play. In addition to Chen Feng's other games tonight, it is the obsession in his heart that he wants to let the world see his coaching level. Even in the face of a "strong" team like the Dream Team, the Huaguo team he coached also played with them. This is obviously the result of his arrival.

And whether Harris will send Chen Feng on the court in the second half is obviously a topic that everyone is more concerned about.

Yang Jian said very guessingly: "In the first half, the Huaguo team played well without Chen Feng, but it was obviously still at a disadvantage, although the Mi Guo team did not have a big lead, the main reason is not how tenacious the Hua Guo team is, but the Mi Guo team itself is not outstanding, and Chen Feng should be sent to the court in the third quarter." ”

Coach Chen said: "Harris did seem to have plans to send Chen Feng to the court, and Chen Feng stood up to warm up. But in the end, Yao Ming and several other players on the field played well, and Chen Feng was not sent to the court. Harris is obviously a head coach who is more responsible for the players, after all, after this basketball game, Chen Feng must rush to the track and field competition immediately. He can't afford to spend too much body on this basketball game. ”

"That's right. Fan Zhizhi also answered. Although Chen Feng's body is recognized as very good. But if you can't let him play, it's better not to let him play, tonight he has the final of the track and field competition, and he has to compete for the championship. ”

Yang Jiandao said: "But if you don't send Chen Feng on the field, I think it will be difficult to win the rice team in this game, and in the second half, I think the rice team will probably score more points as long as they adjust their tactics." ”

Coach Chen also said: "That's the case, the tactical arrangement of the Mi Guo team in the first half is indeed a problem, and Duncan and Iverson are obviously not very fluent with each other. The two didn't score the most, Marbury scored the most. ”

Fan Zhizhi said: "I think if the United States team exceeds our double-digit score, Harris may send Chen Feng on the field. ”

"Well, it depends on Harris's specific arrangements, in short, as long as Chen Feng is here, I think we can still win this game. ”

At the beginning of the third quarter, Chen Feng was still sitting on the bench, which made the audience at the scene and in front of the TV feel disappointed again.

Yao Ming scored 18 points in the first half, the team's most scorer. Zhu Fangyu scored 9 points and ranked second. On the side of the United States, Marbury scored 12 points. Marion, Iverson and Duncan each had eight points.

At the beginning of the game, the United States team attacked first, and after the fast world, Marbury missed the shot, Marion grabbed the rebound and scored a layup, the score became 51-41, and the United States team led by 10 points.

As soon as this score appeared, not only Harris on the sidelines began to get nervous, but even Larry Brown began to get nervous. Both coaches are worried that the United States team will continue to expand the score.

The two coaches were afraid of anything, the Huaguo team attacked, Yao Ming was strongly blocked by Duncan after taking the ball, missed the shot, and was grabbed by Marbury and quickly counterattacked.

Odom hit a basket and drew a foul on the opponent and missed the free throw, but even that extended the score by 12 points. Harris can't afford to ignore this situation any longer, he wants to prove his coaching skills, but he needs to win this game and win the title.

In Harris's decades-long coaching career, his biggest regret is, of course, not winning an NBA championship. He came to China to coach the men's basketball team, and in a certain way, he has almost completely given up his plan to win the NBA championship and began to earn pension money for himself.

Before Chen Feng appeared, he, like everyone else, never thought of leading the Chinese men's basketball team to compete for the Olympic championship, even after two games in the group stage, he never officially had this idea, until the end of the group stage, he suddenly found that the Chinese team was actually the first place in the group stage, they killed the previously undefeated Spanish team with Chen Feng's efforts, and killed the strong Italian team, standing out from this group and suddenly becoming the biggest favorite to win the championship.

Coupled with the fact that this year's defending champions have become a fish belly team, and the Dream Team has also become a big loss in strength and has become unworthy of the name, Harris suddenly realized that it is entirely possible for him to lead this team to the championship, and it is also an Olympic champion. So as to make up for his failure to win the NBA championship.

He is not young anymore, and there is only one such opportunity in his life, and the last time, of course, Harris does not want to miss it. Therefore, compared to proving his coaching skills, he is more eager and eager to win the next three games and win the Olympic title. He can't tolerate any possibility of losing.

Therefore, even if Yao Ming hit a two-point jumper to bring the score back to 10 points, Harris did not hesitate to ask for a timeout, and then waved Chen Feng to play.

His sudden decision erupted in loud cheers after a brief surprise from the audience, and the audience in front of the television set of course began to get excited.

And Larry Brown's face immediately began to be stern, and he sighed secretly in his heart, no matter how good the players of the Huaguo team without Chen Feng are, and even if the strength of their dream team is reduced, it will greatly surpass them, so even if he arranges inappropriate tactics, he still let their dream team keep pressing the Huaguo team to play.

And now that Harris is filming Chen Feng on the court, is their dream team destined to become a tragic character tonight, dream of this Olympics.

Chen Feng actually had the intention of asking for a fight at halftime, but in the end he still didn't say it to Harris, no matter what. He still has to respect and trust the manager's arrangement. Even if he is the absolute heart of the team. But there is no objection to the manager's tactical arrangement.

Now Harris sent him on the field is exactly what he wanted.

"Chen Feng is on the court, and sure enough, Harris will not allow the Huaguo team to be pressed by the other party all the time, and the score is ten points ahead of us. ”

"That's true, Harris has been very patient, and if it were me, he would definitely send Chen Feng on the court in the second quarter. ”

Chen Feng is now on the court, and the atmosphere of the whole game has completely changed, and the audience watching the scene has stood up and cheered for him. The scene immediately became the home of our Huaguo team. It can be seen from the picture that the expressions of the coach and players of the United States at this time are very strict. ”

Including Duncan and Iverson, although they all said that they were not afraid of Chen Feng before, Iverson even expressed his determination to fight Chen Feng alone, but in fact they are all professional athletes, and through the video of the game, of course they all know very well what kind of opponent Chen Feng is. He is indeed very powerful.

Chen Feng came on the field and replaced Liu Wei.

The United States team attacked, Iverson really did what he said, and immediately dribbled to find Chen Feng. His move immediately attracted a round of applause from the audience. Then there was a boo, and then everyone watched them very quietly, waiting for the first heads-up showdown between Batman on the basketball court and Chen Feng.

Iverson's technical characteristics are his superb ball control skills and smooth and smooth movements. He worked seamlessly with his left and right hands, and in a single turn, he easily twisted past the opposing defender and successfully dribbled to the basket. Undoubtedly, his reflexes are very fast.

In fact, Chen Feng's first imitation object when he first learned basketball was Jordan, and the second object was this Batman. Now facing this basketball learning object at the beginning, Chen Feng is very calm in his heart. Anyway, he is now a lot more famous, so he is not very excited. Even if the opponent he is about to face off now is Jordan, he will not feel any excitement and nervousness.

After all, whether he is now in terms of identity, fame and influence, even Jordan is much worse than him. Different statuses determine different mentalities.

One of the main characteristics of Iverson's dribbling is that he changes direction, and his speed is enough to overcome disadvantages such as height and pace, and he can win surprisingly. But this rule doesn't fully apply to the NBA, where the top of world basketball has a lot of scuds, and even Iverson's lightning-fast advance and retreat can't shake off his opponent's close-fitting pressure every time. However, few people are as familiar as Iverson with how to hit big with small, and he has already incorporated his momentary change of direction into his dribbling skills in years of actual court practice, and his opponents cannot find any prior signs of being ready to change direction from Iverson.

Iverson never needs any speed pause to adjust the change of direction in the ball advancement, the ball in his hands seems to take root as if it has become a part of the body, and based on this, Iverson runs without the ball, breaks through with the ball, and changes the direction to get rid of the speed of three different skills are shocking, its signature action is to hold the ball and suddenly rush forward to the side, once the opponent is forced to retreat a little bit of body center of gravity, Iverson quickly semi-twisted his body and retreated slightly to change the direction of the breakthrough from the other side to complete the breakthrough on the blue.

However, this premise is based on the fact that the opponent's neural reactions and movements are all at a normal level, and Chen Feng obviously does not have a normal level of nerve reactions and movements, but far exceeds the level of ordinary people.

So, Iverson was tragic, he habitually dribbled the ball and suddenly turned it, thinking that he would definitely be able to pass Chen Feng, but he did pass, but the person passed, but the ball was quickly copied by Chen Feng's left hand, and then in his stunned mind, the others were stunned, Chen Feng dribbled quickly through Marbury, who had not fully reacted in front, rushed to the three-point line, and immediately jumped three-pointer.

"Huh!"

There is no doubt that Chen Feng hit a three-pointer in less than five seconds after the opening.

Iverson was stupid at this time, and only after Chen Feng shot a three-pointer and the audience burst into applause, cheers and screams, did he react, and then waved his hand in shame and scolded in his mouth.

And on the sidelines, Larry Brown was also very angry at this time, yelling at Iverson on the sidelines. When he was paused just now, he warned the players very clearly and solemnly not to go to Chen Feng alone, especially Iverson, he emphasized it even more, but as a result, Iverson, the arrogant guy, did not listen to him at all, the head coach, and went to Chen Feng to fight alone, but he himself was embarrassed and lost three points of the United States team.

Although Larry Brown also has a number of Chen Feng on the court in the third quarter, they will lose more and win less in this game, but they also want to fight at the end, at least not to lose as ugly as other teams, and lose by a big score.

This kind of situation, he really didn't expect it at all before the game, even if the ball was just intercepted by the opponent, he only felt it after running two meters away, Chen Feng's hand speed was too fast.

Obviously, Iverson lost his first duel with Chen Feng. He obviously underestimated Chen Feng's ability to break the ball. ”

"Yes, Iverson is recognized as one of the best ball-handling and passing athletes in the NBA, but I didn't expect to be easily cut off by Chen Feng, of course, this is not unrelated to Iverson's underestimation and carelessness. ”

"Iverson obviously underestimated Chen Feng's strength and overestimated his ability to dribble. (To be continued......) T
