"China TV, China TV!"

In the basketball stadium of the 2012 Olympic Games, the last game of the first day of the men's basketball tournament began.

"What is being broadcast live for you now is the game of the Chinese men's basketball team against the Spanish men's basketball team!"

"Come on !! Chinese team"

On the sidelines, fans living in the United Kingdom rushed to the scene, and the national flag fluttered all over the stands, and it could be seen that most of the Chinese fans were concentrated near the west stand.

"The game has begun, let's announce the starting lineups of both sides!"

As for the Spanish team, there is no doubt about the lineup, and due to various reasons, Rubio, who ultimately failed to participate in the national team competition, was unable to play, and the Spanish team made personnel changes in the starting backfield.

"Point guard Sergio Ruhl, shooting guard Jose Calderón, small forward Rudy Fernandez, power forward Pau Gasol, center Marc Gasol!"

This lineup is the strongest starting lineup that the Spanish team can put out, although there are factors that this is the first game, but Spain can give such a lineup, which also shows from the side that the Spanish team, which is aiming to win the championship, attaches great importance to the Chinese team.

"For the Chinese team, the starting lineup given is point guard Liu Wei, scoring guard Gu Yu, small forward Sun Yue, big forward Yi Jianlian, and center Chen Mu!"

Yoga's lineup did not surprise many Chinese fans. Although Chen Mu and Yi Jianlian are both big forwards, considering the weak status quo of the Chinese team in the center position after Yao Ming's retirement, it is not surprising to let Chen Mu play center.

"Both sides are very aggressive!"

Commentator Su Jun said: "Most of the players on the Spanish side are familiar to everyone, so I won't introduce them much, the key is the point guard Ruhr, who may not have paid attention to the fans of the European League, and they are not very familiar." ”

"This player was born in 1987, is 191 centimeters tall and is a typical two-way defender. Although like most European defenders, there are still some problems on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, Ruhr is extremely decisive and resolute, and he will never hesitate to shoot directly when he has the opportunity, whether it is three points or two points, or breaking through the basket with the ball, Ruhr represents the top level in Europe! ”

Su Jun's words are not exaggerating, although the player Ruhl has not been successful in the NBA, but it is more because his defense is somewhat subpar. When Ruhr entered the NBA, the best template given by scouts for the draft template prospect was his backcourt partner Calderon.

In reality, however, Ruhl's style of play is very different from Calderon's.

"Calderon is good at reasonable scheduling and distribution of the ball, extremely calm, old and simple passing techniques, excellent long-range shooting, but the ability to break through with the ball is average, and in terms of physical fitness, there is a considerable gap with NBA-level players."

Su Jun continued: "But Ruhl is different, his physical fitness is known as a rare talent in the Spanish men's basketball team in ten years. His speed, bounce, strength, confrontation ability, explosiveness, are not worthy of an NBA player at all. In the 2007 preseason, Ruhr faced TJ Ford, a supercar known for its speed in the NBA. ”

"Although TJ Ford was already past his prime at that time, it was not easy for a European backfielder to be able to do this." Yoga nodded.

"Yes, a lot of people will compare Ruhr to Rubio, who was also used as Rubio's spare tire in previous international matches. But there has been public opinion that Spain should promote Ruhr to the starting line-up. ”

Su Jun said: "Because everyone knows that Rubio's physical confrontation ability, especially in terms of running and jumping ability, has always been questionable, and his long-range shooting is not stable enough. But Ruhr has explosive long-range shots, empty catches, and flying blocks, which are commonplace for Ruhl. ”

"The reason why Spain has been using Rubio as a starter for a long time is because Rubio is better organized! After all, Spain has no shortage of scorers. "Yoga Path.

"Yes, but Ruhl's ability to tear apart opposition defences with his speed is probably more important in FIBA, at least that's what I think."

Su Jun said: "However, Rubio's advantage is not only in the organization, Rubio's defense, prediction, stealing ability, etc., are better than Ruhl, and he is also more calm and composed on the court, and he is not as hot as Ruhr." In addition, Rubio is younger, and Spain will definitely have to work on Rubio if they want to think about it in the long run. ”

"So, Ruhl's template is probably more like Fernandez?" Yoga asked.

'He's not as physically fit as Fernandes, but it's true.' Su Jun nodded.

"Spain's choice on the back line this time is very similar to the situation encountered by the Chinese team!"

Yoga said thoughtfully: "Before the game, the Chinese team was also puzzled by the question of whether to play Gu Yu, who has more offensive power, or Wang Shipeng, who has more defensive experience, in the backcourt position. ”

"Of course Gu Yu is stronger, there is no doubt that he is a player who has proven himself in the NBA-level arena after all."

Su Jun smiled: "But Gu Yu's biggest question is, can he adapt to the rules of FIBA......?" ”

"Offense, offense!!"

After kick-off, Chen Mu undoubtedly grabbed the ball for the Chinese team, the basketball fell into the hands of Liu Wei, and the Chinese team began to organize the first attack.

Coming to the front court with the ball, Liu Wei recalled some of the questions Deng Huade had said in his mind and frowned.

"Chen is definitely no problem in terms of ability in the position of starting center forward, but in terms of physique, we are inferior."

As we all know, the two strongest points in Spain are the twin towers combination of the Gasol brothers on the inside.

Needless to say, in the FIBA system, he is the god of the penalty area. Height and reach, good habit of holding the ball and holding his hands high, soft to explosive feel, natural basket perception, and exquisite strategy vision have made Da Gasol a big killer in the FIBA arena, and it is difficult for Da Yao to bargain above his head.

Now, as Gasol Jr. grows up, he has been considered by many to be one of the candidates for the NBA's No. 1 center in this era of center withering. Gasol Jr. has a strong physique, although his running and jumping ability is not outstanding, but he has excellent defensive awareness, and he is a difficult bone to gnaw.

If Yao Ming is still there, with Yao Ming and Chen Mu forming an inside line, it will not be a waste of the Gasol brothers at all. Because of Yao Ming's height and shooting, Chen Mu's all-round skills and explosive athleticism, which just restrain the characteristics of the Gasol brothers, the Chinese team does not have to worry about it on the inside.

But now that Da Yao has retired, Chen Mu is facing the center position that he dislikes the most against the stump center - and this center also has a long-range shooting and response ability. The United Arab Emirates has to face Pau Gasol, the advantage of physical fitness is gone, and the task of the Chinese team's basket has suddenly become much heavier.

Liu Wei's own opponent is Ruhr, and his physical fitness is fully inferior, and he is very uncomfortable. Small forward Sun Yue is the top swinger body of the yellow race, but it is also difficult to fight against the flying man Fernandez.

The Chinese team really has an advantage in the matchup, and there is only one group left.

“…… Gu Yu! ”

"Whoosh!!"

That's Gu Yu!

“…… Yo! The opening is ISO! ”

To everyone's expectations, the Chinese team did not directly give the ball to Chen Mu, the core of the team, but used Chen Mu to attract the defense on the weak side, handed the ball to Gu Yu on the strong side, and then pulled it away.

"Clever!"

Su Jun exclaimed: "Gu Yu's body is not strong, but against Calderon, it is half a catty. Moreover, Calderon's defense has always been poor, and it may be doubtful whether Gu Yu's scoring ability can break through the world's top blockade. But every time Gu Yu is against the opponent who can't defend the position, he basically beats the opponent's rhythm! ”

"Bang, bang, bang"

Sure enough, after Gu Yu received the ball, he didn't mean to continue to run and pass the ball at all, but directly opened the frame and began to dribble, his eyes staring at Calderon's defensive position, ready to break through at any time.

The rhythm changed violently, Gu Yu's dribbling had become more and more perfect, and after two consecutive crotch drops, he suddenly burst to the right side, causing Calder to lean back, and the foot of the foot almost didn't keep up.

"A good opportunity to break through......!!!"

“…… Call! ”

Just when everyone in the audience thought that Gu Yu would take this opportunity to break through from the left side in reverse

Gu Yu, step back and shoot.

“…… Swish! ”

Middle!!!

“…… Wow!!!! ”

The Chinese fans at the scene were instantly excited, the red flag was waved wildly, if you didn't know that this was the United Kingdom, you thought that this Olympics would be held in China again!

"The beautiful retreat step is two points long, Gu Yu's housekeeper is unavoidable!"

Yoga was very excited and said loudly: "Do you see Calderon's confused eyes?" If the Spanish team doesn't change their defense, this point will be blown up by Gu Yu today! ”

Everything was as everyone expected, Gu Yu, in his first Olympic competition, ushered in a rapid and explosive explosion.

"Huh!"

“NICE！”

The Spanish team adhered to its own offensive philosophy, came to the front court and handed the ball to the twin towers to handle, and after receiving the ball, Gasol Jr. turned his back a little, sent a straight plug to the bottom line, and assisted Gasol on the weak side to score a mid-shot.

Looking back, Gu Yu's killing began.

"Cross steps between marches, shake out the space to make a move...... Feints! Calderón was spotted flying! Gu Yu found his balance and threw a shot...... Middle! The referee's whistle will be penalized!! ”

"The empty cut run is very exciting, Chen Mu's cover is solid, Gu Yu has to get the ball near the free throw line...... Didn't give! Liu Wei gave his eyes to the basket, and Gu Yu ran and jumped...... Relay in the air!! Beautiful teamwork! Chen Mu alone attracted all the defensive attention of Spain!! ”

"Three threats in the face frame, tentative step! A tentative step shaking of the melon classic! Calderon's body was crooked, and Gu Yu took the opportunity to break through...... Water droplets are thrown in the middle of the middle!! Seven points in a row!! ”

"Back! Gu Yu turned his back! There is a lot of room to open up on the weak side, and Ruhr comes over to help defend the bag! Gu Yu wants to pass the ball...... Didn't give! Chen Mu's air cut is a feint! Gu Yu half-turned around and hooked his hand in the middle lane...... Yes!! 9 to 2! The Chinese team got off to a dream start!!! ”

"Beep beep beep !!"

Amid the frantic shouts of the Chinese fans in the stadium, the Spanish team called a timeout.

After the timeout, the Spanish team gave their own countermeasures.

But this countermeasure is just a weak foreshadowing for Gu Yu and Chen Mu's double ghosts to slam the door later.
