Chapter 356: Unpredictable Defense
ps: Today's three watches, the last day of the month, ask for various tickets.
Triano watched Spain and the United States at least three times in the past two days, and before the game in the dressing room, he analysed his findings with the Canadians.
"There was no problem with the strategy in the semi-finals, they had a couple of good times when they used the joint defense, and the U.S. couldn't play the offense to the inside, and Spain just lost in luck, losing to the U.S. team on 60 percent three-point shooting."
The Canadian head coach started by belittling the opponent in the final, attributing the victory of Dream Eight to illusory luck, and after giving the players enough breath, he continued: "The tactics of the American team are extremely simple, which is to play speed, break through, and use personal super ability to suppress the opponent. This move made them smooth sailing in this Olympic Games, and they were invincible all the way. But guys, when their shooting percentage plummets and the opponent's defensive intensity is high enough, the so-called Dream Eight is a little helpless, and in the end it is still James, Wade and Kobe Bryant's individual ability to overwhelm the opponent, or rely on outside three-pointers to win. ”
Triano said this, chuckling lightly: "Once this happens, we have to use two or three defenses to block the inside line and force them to shoot on the outside." They shot 60 percent from three-point range last time, and I don't believe they're going to be that accurate this one. Spain have run out of luck for the USA team, and now it's our turn to strike the final blow! ”
The two brothers looked at each other and felt that the coach of the national team was no worse than the old Dunleavy, as if they could really block the inside line.
"Damn, feelings still have to work hard for us." Ji Guoyi quickly thought that the task of blocking the inner line went without saying. Who else but the two of them can do it?
"It is estimated that today is another three-inside line. The coach wanted to bet on the U.S. team with three points. Ji Guoqiu also thought secretly on the side. The so-called "to win against the United States, you need a certain amount of luck", this is the truth.
The players of the two teams played, and Ji Guoyi saw Emma at a glance. Watson, the British chick is sitting in the front row at the moment, and look at Taylor again. Swift and Christine, the two girls, sat side by side in the middle of the arena, a few notches behind Little Hermione's seat.
"Damn, I'm sure I don't admit it was me who gave it to Emma. Watson asked for tickets. It's none of the business with me! Ji Guoyi secretly decided that if he went back to Taylor. Swift asks about little Hermione's seat, and he doesn't admit that it has anything to do with him.
Ji Guoqiu glanced at his crotch from time to time, and couldn't help but shudder.
"Silly fork, what do you think? That chick is obviously scaring you, do you really believe it? Ji Guoyi secretly sneered at the worry of the dead panda: "Besides, even if she really castrates you, we have telepathy, you can sense me, and I can also help you take care of Twilight." ”
Ji Guoqiu slapped the dead fox on the head, and the scene camera didn't know what was going on. Immediately gave the two a close-up.
In the CCTV live broadcast room, Master Reasonable smiled: "If the average team has two stars. There will be some friction to a greater or lesser extent, and the typical example is the OK combination. However, the Canadian team is an exception, which is one of the benefits of twins playing together. ”
Yao Ming was still in attendance as a guest today, and Wen Yan said: "Any team has such a problem, but as far as I know, the Clippers have never been rumored to have twin feuds. ”
When many thoughtful fans in front of the TV heard this, they immediately thought: "What Yao Ming means by this sentence, doesn't it mean that there are also discords in the Rockets?" Last season, there were always contradictions between the little giant and Maddie, which may not seem to be groundless. ”
Master Reason didn't mention Team Rockets much and quickly turned the conversation to the mighty American team.
"In the previous games, the U.S. team didn't have much tactical coordination, and even the simple blocking and dismantling coordination like covering and going down directly ignored. The Dream Eight players have strong personal breakthrough ability, and they play with explosiveness and speed, and even the Spanish team, which won the World Championships, is not at the same level as Dream Eight in terms of footwork and strength. ”
The more the reasonable master said, the more energetic, quite a bit of the Canadian coach in the locker room to brainwash the players to mobilize the shadow, I saw him said passionately: "The dream team of the United States is a cycle of reincarnation, in 1992, the dream team was born in the Barcelona Olympics, when the world was sensational, the United States men's basketball team basically did not play any tactical cooperation, completely relying on the strength of the individual to eat the opponent." 16 years later, the dream team is ranked "eighth", and there are still no tricks to win, using speed, breakthrough, fast break, dunk and other simplest routines to defeat opponents. ”
Many fans muttered secretly, it seems that the Canadian Big Three don't have too many routines, and they are not blocking and dismantling, they are completely relying on their personal strength to defeat their opponents, and they also use simple routines such as speed, breakthrough, fast attack, and three-point.
It is worth mentioning that before the start of the game, the American team first protested to the referee, because the twins are very cunning today, and the two of them actually temporarily changed to a new hairstyle, and the hairstyle is exactly the same!
American fans said: This is simply outrageous, how can they do this?
And the jersey numbers of the two brothers in the national team are not No. 6 and No. 9 of the Clippers, but No. 69 and No. 96.
This kind of pit dad number, coupled with the identical faces of the two, if the jersey flutters, it is easy to be dazzled, especially at the moment when the two are staggered, it is impossible to tell which is the elder brother and which is the younger brother.
Since no similar situation has happened in the Olympic Games, after receiving the protest of the American team, several international referees discussed it and felt that it was okay to look at the jersey number, although it was a little easy to be dazzled, but the two brothers did not violate the rules, so the protest of the American team was invalid.
Domestic fans saw the two brothers with small flat hair, and many girls sighed: Sure enough, those who dare to show their foreheads are really good-looking, this conclusion is applicable to both men and women, and the twin brothers are handsome with the same hairstyle, and the Korean stick bangs are completely out.
Canada's starting line-up for the day: Steve. Nash, Andy. Lautins, Ji Guoyi, Ji Guoqiu, Joel. Anthony.
Team USA's starting lineup for the day: Jason. Kidd, Kobe. Bryant, LeBron. James, Carmelo. Anthony, Dwight. Howard.
Canada today is biased towards a one-two-two position in the formation, allowing Joel to have enough strength and strong confrontation ability. Anthony single-handedly defends Howard on the inside. The two brothers stood in the middle. According to the shape of the field. Pounce on it or retract it at any time. This is the new formation of the Canadian team, which is used for the first time in the Olympics, and it seems that Triano has a lot of things in his stomach, and he is not really a puppet coach.
Today, Triano did not let Ji Guoqiu defend Howard, this is because the weight of the panda brother 235 pounds meets the 270 pounds Howard suffers too much, Superman faced Ji Guoqiu twice last season, and he was able to get an average of 28 points and 12 rebounds, and the two are in line at this stage. The giant panda couldn't withstand the onslaught of Superman's majesty.
The opening position of the two brothers was biased towards the middle, and as for how to adjust in the game, Triano let the two brothers make their own decisions, and they can adapt according to the shape. Therefore, Canada's formation today will definitely change a lot, according to the situation on the field and the lineup of the United States team to fine-tune, once it is pounced, it is a three-two defense, retracted is a two-three defense, and if it is not adjusted, it is a one-two-two defense.
Before the start of the game, the players of the two teams greeted each other, and the players of the Canadian Big Three and the United States team were all familiar to each other. The two brothers also played against these stars last season, such as Chevrolet, who was kicked out by the two in the Western Conference Finals.
Ji Guo grinned and Kobe Bryant hugged each other. When the latter saw the smug energy on the dead fox's face, he felt an indescribable unhappiness in his heart! Now the fox brother got the championship ring in his first season, this achievement is stronger than he did not know how many times, with Kobe Bryant's character of not willing to succumb to others, how to look at the dead fox at this moment is not pleasing to the eye.
"Bryant, I also have a ring, but I'm still one Olympic gold medal away, you see I'm still young, how about Rangyi?" Ji Guozhi said with a wicked smile.
"Yes, I'll give it to you if you win." Kobe Bryant resisted the urge to beat the fox to death, but he was scolding in his heart: "I'm about to fucking retire, I haven't won the Olympic gold medal yet, you little bastard, I'll elbow you to death in a while!" ”
Ji Guozhi nodded, as if agreeing with Kobe's opinion, ignoring the latter's fire-breathing eyes, and walked to LeBron. James smiled at the gorilla and quickly whispered, "Hi LeBron, I'm looking forward to meeting you in this year's Finals, I think you're the best player on the roster and you deserve a championship ring." ”
LeBron. James's face was not very good-looking, and he nodded with a smile, but countless grass and mud horses flew by in his heart.
"This little bastard won the championship, is he here to demonstrate?"
Ji Guoqiu and Howard were chatting on the side, the giant panda was extremely disdainful of Ji Guoqiu's lack of virtue in his heart, so he would not use this way of offending people to influence the opponent, and compete with the opponent with his strength, if he loses, if he wins, he wins, isn't it bad? Why do you have to play conspiracy, it may not be useful, and it will offend people?
"Damn, don't I know? But when I saw Kobe and the gorilla, I couldn't help but go up and provoke them, and so on, did I do this to get their attention? ”
", don't disgust me."
With the pre-match greetings between the two teams, the game began immediately.
Ji Guoyi's provocation took effect in less than two minutes after the opening, Kobe Bryant scored 4 points in a row with full of anger, and then the gorilla also clicked the wrong phase, and forced the basketball against the defense of the panda, and also caused Ji Guoqiu's defensive foul, two plus one!
The two superstars of the U.S. team played very hard at the beginning of the game, almost like playing in the finals, and Yumehachi started the game 7-0.
Triano signaled his team to use joint defense on the sidelines, and the Canadian team started with man-marking, and after receiving the order, he quickly shrunk the formation and changed to a two-three joint defense to stabilize the interior defense.
Seeing this, Kobe Bryant decisively fired a shot on the outside, but this time he finally missed the shot.
Canada didn't hit a single of their first four offenses, and their opening offense was all done by the twins, who each shot twice and hit all of them.
LeBron. James defended Ji Guoyi today, in addition to flexibility, the gorilla's explosiveness is much stronger than that of the little fox, Ji Guoyi is a little uncomfortable at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends after the opening, and he is still looking for state; Ji Guoqiu is similar, Anthony who plays the fourth position is much worse than him in height, but the opponent's super athleticism makes him a little uncomfortable after playing seven Olympic games. Especially in the low post, due to lack of strength, he still couldn't squeeze into a suitable offensive position in the face of Anthony, who was half a head shorter, which made the giant panda very embarrassed.
Canada's fifth offense, Nash decided to come on his own, defending his Kidd pace was much slower than him, Nash quickly broke through to the inside, he didn't want to block and dismantle, and broke into the interior line to score two points with a horse archery.
The two brothers were slow to get into the groove at the beginning, and Canada opened completely supported by Nash's play, but the strength of the Wind Child alone was obviously unable to withstand the group offensive of the American team.
Halfway through the first quarter, at 4 minutes and 58 seconds, the score was 6:13, and Canada's 6 points were all scored by Nash alone. Paul replaces Jason. After Kidd, Nash has become more troublesome to score, and the queen bee is his bitter master in the playoffs last season. The Hornets led by Paul eliminated his Suns.
In the first half of the first quarter of the U.S. team, they also relied on only Kobe Bryant and James, who accounted for most of the U.S. team's scores, and the two of them also changed the selfless style of play in the previous games, and the offensive end became more aggressive and had a strong desire to attack.
Coach K felt that this was a good thing, and since these two masters wanted to score, he simply let the two play on the court for a while.
The U.S. team began to make substitutions halfway through the first quarter, Kobe Bryant and James remained on the court, and the lineup on the court became: Chris. Paul, Kobe. Bryant, LeBron. James, Carlos. Boozer, Chris. Bosh.
The Canadian team did not make substitutions, it was not that they did not want to, but there was no one to replace at all.
The Big Three still stayed on the court, but the positions of the two brothers on the inside line had some adjustments, after Howard went off the court, Ji Guoqiu returned to the center position, and Ji Guoqi also returned to the power forward position. Anthony went to deal with James this time, and Triano threw all the toughest bones of the American team to Joel today. Anthony, everything that is difficult to do is to let this black and hard resist.
Joel. Anthony according to the pre-game arrangement, put the three-point line outside the gorilla, one step and a half away from the main defense breakthrough, although his speed, flexibility, explosiveness is not as good as James, even the height is about the same, but in terms of strength he is not afraid of James, in the face of the gorilla impact can still withstand, for the twins on the inside to create enough opportunities to make up for the defense.
Canada's defensive formation on the inside played a good role, and in the second half of the first quarter, they slowly stabilized the situation, and Yumehachi's outside shooting rate began to return to normal, and Canada's counterattack time was coming.
