If Lithuania can reach the semifinals, the strength must be leveraged, and Lithuania has always been a very strong team in world basketball.

There have been many important figures in the history of basketball, such as Lao Sa, such as Younas......

However, with the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team, which has been improved by Richard and the outside defensive strength has made great progress, it is difficult for Lithuania to be the opponent of the Chinese men's basketball team.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated Lithuania with a score of 96:91 and successfully advanced to the Olympic men's basketball finals.

The domestic basketball circle is completely boiling, and a silver medal is guaranteed, which is simply something that domestic fans can't dream of.

Richard is also relieved, at least now he has completed the task of the Basketball Association, and he does not have to apologize to the people of the whole country.

The Chinese men's basketball team cooperated by China and the United States has blossomed twice......

In the afternoon of the same day, the showdown between Argentina and the Dream Six team began, and Richard also went to the scene to watch the game.

Although Argentina won the Dream Six team under normal circumstances, in fact, Richard still didn't want to meet the Dream Six in the final, he preferred to play Argentina.

The game on the field has already begun, and the Argentine side is quite smart, shrinking the defense line on the field, and not giving the Dream Six team a chance to break through and create damages......

FIBA's rules are certainly very different from the NBA, and there is no three-second defense rule in the Olympic men's basketball game, nor does it limit joint defense, so it leads to a crowd of people on the inside......

The main thing is that the NBA doesn't blow penalties for some fouls because it wants the game to look better, but FIBA is different, the whistle doesn't stop blowing.

Duncan played less than twenty minutes and walked straight away......

Consider that he is playing against Argentine actor Scola, and you can see why he was sent off so quickly.

After Duncan left the court, the Dream Six team was almost cool.

Although the game is not over yet, Richard knows that the Dream Six team is finished, and I am afraid that when they return home, the nickname of the dream team will become the nightmare team.

Under normal circumstances, in addition to the loss of the rules and the lack of outside offensive firepower, the reason for their loss is actually the factor of internal strife.

That's right, there are all kinds of infighting within the Dream Six team.

The main reason must be Marbury, the relationship between him and Larry Brown was quite bad before, and when the Olympics start, Larry Brown will definitely not give Marbury any good looks.

even directly questioned Marbury: "Why don't you get out of ......"

This incident even alarmed Stern, who caught Larry Brown and scolded him, telling him to pay attention to his identity, maintain due respect for his players, and stop complaining about his players.

When the Nightmare team returned to the United States and was condemned by American fans, Marbury gave an interview and bluntly said that Larry Brown should take the blame.

Seeing that Marbury stepped up, Jefferson and others also vaguely said that Larry Brown was mainly responsible for the loss this time.

In Richard's view, in fact, these players are right, although this pot can't completely let Larry Brown carry it, but he must also bear the main responsibility......

If it weren't for the reason for the infighting, with the hard power of the Dream Six team, the odds of losing to Argentina were not very high.

Even if Duncan is sent off, the Dream Six team still has a good advantage.

Under normal circumstances, Iverson can still stand up to Larry Brown, and now that Iverson doesn't mess with Larry Brown, it's good, how can he help him talk.

……

"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle for the end of the match.

The Dream Six lost a crucial match and missed out on a chance to win gold......

Richard couldn't help but be overjoyed, and the next opponent they faced was Argentina.

……

"The problem is very simple, they chose the wrong head coach, the relationship between me and Larry Brown is very bad, if they had chosen Richard as the head coach, I think we would have reached the final with ease like the Chinese team!" After the game, Marbury did not hesitate to spray Larry Brown in the face of questions from the press conference.

"It's an All-Star team, but Larry Brown always wants to treat this team as his own, he always wants to tell everyone what's right, tell us what we can and can't do, we're not kids, we know better than him what we can and can't do, what he should really do is sit on the sidelines, like Coach K or Coach Richard, and enjoy the game quietly!"

Marbury may also be really anxious, and he doesn't save any face for Larry Brown.

Jefferson also couldn't control his mouth, "I think Larry Brown just uses us as his tools, he always wants to impose certain routines on us, and I think that's probably why Kidd withdrew......"

Kidd was a member of the Dream Six squad before, but he retired from the game, and the reason is undoubtedly Larry Brown.

"All in all, they chose the wrong coach this time, and I'm honest, even if it wasn't for Richard to coach us, if we were any manager, we wouldn't have played such a miserable record."

I have to say that Jefferson's words really resonated with many people.

Coach K coaches the Dream Team, but in fact, he doesn't have much presence at all, and the only thing he does is ......

Do nothing.

Quietly sat on the sidelines and watched the game on the court, without even calling a timeout, completely leaving the game to the all-star players.

"I heard that they wanted Coach Richard to be an assistant coach, which seemed ridiculous and ridiculous to me."

"What is Coach Richard, what is he Larry Brown, look at the good things he did, we didn't even qualify for the finals."

"We all wanted to win this gold medal for the United States, but they chose the wrong coach, and all I can say is that if there is Larry Brown on the coaching staff, I will never come back to the Olympics."

Iverson's face was pale, he had thought he would be able to meet Richard in the final, but now they have not even qualified for the final.

It made him quite uncomfortable.

……

Richard just watched the excitement, and didn't join in the excitement at this point in time.

The Dream Six team was eliminated from the finals, which not only increased Richard's chances of leading the team to win the championship, but also relieved Richard of a lot of pressure from the United States.

If it is really against the Dream Six team in the final, and Richard wins the Dream Six team in the end, then I am afraid that Lao Mei's fans will definitely not be able to accept it.

Don't forget, Richard was an American......

In case Richard really takes the Chinese team to kill the Dream Six team, then he will probably have to spray American fans to death.

Although Richard didn't care much about this, it might be better to have less trouble or less trouble.

……

In the blink of an eye, the Olympic men's basketball final was underway, and the U.S. team ended their Olympic journey by defeating Lithuania in the third-place match and holding a bronze medal.

The next Chinese men's basketball team against Argentina will determine the gold medalist of this Olympic Games.

If the Argentine team can defeat the Dream Six team, there must be two brushes, and the starting lineup of the team is all NBA-level players.

The center is Oberto of the Wizards, the power forward is Scola, the small forward is Nocioni, and the two guards are Ginobili and the Bucks player Delfino.

With such a lineup, the men's basketball team lost unjustly before, although the Argentine team could not find a dominant interior line like Yao Ming.

But their lineup is more balanced, especially the starting lineup, all of which are NBA-level players, and the three of Ginobili, Nocioni and Scola are quite good.

Ginobili is definitely an All-Star, and as for Nocioni and Scola, they are also quasi-All-Star players.

……

As the referee's whistle blew, the starters of both sides began to appear.

Speaking of which, this Olympic men's basketball final is actually a competition between the starting lineups of the two sides, because the game time is only 40 minutes, and the head coaches of both sides are obviously not prepared to make too frequent substitutions.

……

If there is no blood to improve the strength of Chinese men's basketball players, then tonight's final may become a repeat of the group stage.

However, now that Richard has made a lot of money, the effect is naturally leveraged, and he quickly has an advantage on the field.

Compared with the Dream Six team, the Chinese men's basketball team has no disadvantage compared to the Argentine team in terms of FIBA rules.

These Chinese players have a lot of experience in international competitions, and playing small games is playing games under FIBA rules.

The reason why Yao Ming regards Lao Sa as an idol must be for this reason.

After Zhu Fangyu used Artest's all-star light, her defensive strength increased greatly, and she didn't suffer a loss against Nocioni.

And he also has a good three-point shooting ability, and can play a slight advantage in the head-to-head confrontation with Nocioni.

As for Ginobili's side, the Chinese team has no good way to restrict it, but Yao Ming on the inside has a great advantage, and the situation on the court is quite favorable for the men's basketball team.

Richard is also relieved, in the current situation, the men's basketball team is basically a sure thing.

By the time the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Richard was completely relieved.

Won......

Olympic Champion!

The Chinese fans who watched the game stood up and cheered wildly, the value of this gold medal can be said to be too big.

directly broke the embarrassing situation of no gold in the history of China's three major men's Olympic Games......

The history of a large country, a population of more than one billion, and the fact that the men's three balls have never won a gold medal has been completely rewritten.

Richard knew very well that this Athens Olympics was really a shit luck, and then he happened to win the gold medal.

In the future, the Olympics will definitely not have this kind of good luck......

This time the Dream Six team lost, and the next Dream Seven team lineup can be called terrifying, it is a real space battleship.

Unless Richard develops at least five All-Star level Chinese players in the next four years, he will not be the opponent of the Dream Seven team.

It can train five All-Star level Chinese players, which even Richard will never be able to do.

This makes this gold medal even more precious!

With five crowns and one gold medal, Richard is on the road to becoming a myth, gone forever!

……

After winning the championship, Richard returned to China with the men's basketball team and participated in the celebration ceremony held by the Basketball Association.

As the figure who contributed to this gold medal, Richard was naturally the protagonist of the celebration ceremony.

However, Richard did not go out of the limelight, and after praising and encouraging the Chinese men's basketball players, he returned to the United States directly with Tiana.
