Chapter 473: Who is the Yellow Sparrow? (a)

"Okay, now the game is at the end of the first quarter, and the U.S. team is asking for a timeout."

Yoga broadcasts the game, and since the start of the game, the scores of the two sides are very anxious. If it weren't for the amazing performance in the first game of the group stage, the inextricable battle between the Chinese team and the murderous American team would have been enough to make the fans faint with excitement.

But with Zhuyu in front, although he knew that there was a gap in strength between the two teams, and it was a fluke to win the first game, the fans couldn't help but have a few more expectations in their hearts.

Maybe...... You can win again!

The Olympic Games are both long and short. There are five matches in the group stage, and after entering the knockout round, even if you go all the way to the finals, that is, three games. Full play, a total of eight.

In other words, as long as a team can complete eight consecutive wins in the Olympic arena, it can win the championship with a winning record.

However, it is easier said than done.

The Olympics are not the NBA regular season, and they are even more brutal than the playoffs.

In the NBA regular season, eight wins in a row is really not something to brag about, and several teams do it every year. Even in the playoffs, an eight-game winning streak is just a two-round sweep, and some historically strong teams can do it.

But the Olympic stadium is a life-and-death Shura field. Especially in the knockout round, the cruelty of the single-elimination format is fully revealed. Any team, even if it has the strength to crush all opponents, as long as one of them is careless, the hand is a little worse, or some key balls are not handled well, and the opponent is defeated, it will lose the qualification for the championship.

The Chinese team has completed a seven-game winning streak before, and this winning streak can be said to be the highest gold medal in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team. If you ask the world of basketball, there are a few teams that can face super strong teams such as the United States, Spain, and Argentina in a row. Can you continue your winning streak?

No.

No team can do that, not even the U.S. team itself, now with a clone lineup across from them, and the opponent also has LeBron, Kobe, Anthony, Wade and others, they don't dare to say that they can win.

A win over the U.S. team in an Olympic tournament is already worth a lifetime of bragging rights for the winner. Now the Chinese team has to challenge something that is undoubtedly more difficult.

If this one wins again, the Chinese team will win the championship at the same time, and also defeat the world's top two super teams four times in eight games.

If it's a fluke once, what about twice......?

"Alright, the timeout is over!"

The timeout ended with substitutions. On the Chinese team's side, only Sun Yue was left on the field, and the Chinese Great Wall partners Chen Mu and Yao Ming on the inside were replaced, and the United Arab Emirates and Dazhi were on the court to partner on the inside.

This is the most commonly used rotation routine of the Chinese team, except for the first game against the United States team, which played a small trick psychological warfare, allowing Chen Mu to play the connecting section, in the rest of the games, Chen Mu was rested at this time.

And the substitutions on the side of the American team have not changed much, and it is still Paul Delon who is on the field. Wade, the U.S. team's leading scorer to date, also came on the court to form a three-man lineup in the backcourt.

"This lineup is fast." Yoga said: "The Chinese team now has no Chen Mu. Although the speed of the UAE is also very good, there is still a gap between Chen Mu and Chen Mu in all aspects, will this lineup be restrained by the American team? ”

"Theoretically, it's restrained." Director Zhang nodded and said, "But the outside line is restrained, and the inside line will be recovered." The UAE is not as good as Chen Mu, but it is also an NBA-level insider, and the substitute inside line of the United States will not necessarily suffer too much. ”

"Where's Dazhi?" Yoga asked, "Will Dazhi have an outburst like the first one?" ”

"It's hard." Director Zhang shook his head and said, "The U.S. team is not the kind of team that will fall twice in the same ditch. It must have been arranged in a targeted manner. ”

"Okay, then let's go ahead and watch the game and see how the U.S. team responds!"

The game continued to start, and everything was as Director Zhang expected, and the Chinese team still wanted to focus on Dazhi. However, the U.S. team adopted a strategy of focusing on Dazhi. In addition to the opponents, the three small men on the outside are all incredibly fast, and they can step forward at any time to interfere with Dazhi's ball selection.

On the other hand, Dazhi's side made a mistake, or the Chinese team missed the shot in a hurry, and the American team grabbed the rebound and played a quick counterattack.

Paul responded, DeLong was the setter, Wade was the assault vanguard, and the U.S. team's fast break was unstoppable. The players of several teams who had played against the American team watching the game on the sidelines felt chills in their hearts when they saw this scene, and they couldn't help but recall the fear of being ruled by the American team.

"Dang!"

Dazhi missed the shot, and the U.S. team picked up the rebound and immediately pushed for a quick counterattack. Paul rushed forward with the ball in the center, and even Chen Jianghua was difficult to follow. AFTER AN EXAGGERATED CROSSOVER DRIBBLE, PAUL THREW THE BALL INTO THE AIR AND A FIGURE TOOK OFF FROM A THREE-SECOND ZONE ON ONE SIDE.

"Bang!"

Wade flew into the air, glided his trademark sideways, grabbed the basketball in the air and smashed it into the basket, and the U.S. team completed the fast break again, and the margin was stretched to five points.

This goal set off the prelude to the indiscriminate bombardment of the American team, and the three little men were like three elves on the field, invisible and unpredictable. Paul's ball control, Delon's long-range shooting and rhythm, Wade's impact and frame singles, the United States team's three small in the Chinese half of the power, the end of the first quarter, the difference has been instantly stretched to 9 points.

"Toot!"

At the end of the first quarter, 34-25, the U.S. team found its groove and played the basketball they do best. Unleash extreme offensive and defensive transitions, and the fast cameras can't keep up.

With 25 points in the first quarter, the Chinese team's offense did a good job, but the problem on the defensive end became a great hidden danger. In the face of the murderous American team, how should the Chinese team bite the score difference as much as possible and wait until Yao Ming and Chen Mu come back to chase the score?

No one knows the answer.

"The current tactics of the U.S. team, in our old Chinese saying, are that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind. The opening was inseparable from our game, but the connecting section suddenly opened the score. This is the most commonly used overall strategy of the U.S. team in this competition, and today the Chinese team is also on their way! ”

Yoga was very uneasy in his heart, and kept looking at the Chinese team bench.

Yao Ming was still panting there. Da Yao's physical strength has always been a problem, and he has just recovered from a major injury, and he will play again after this break, which is estimated to be in the middle of the second quarter.

So what about the first half of the second quarter? If you can bite the score and don't let the score difference be too big, wait until Da Yao comes back. The Chinese team still has a chance.

But if the U.S. team continues to bombard like this, and the score difference is stretched to 15 points, or even more than 20 points, the Chinese team will be really in trouble.

What to do?

Yoga didn't know, Director Zhang had an idea in his heart, but he felt that it was really a bit risky, and he hesitated for a while, but he still didn't say it.

This time, the idea of Zhang Gui. But it coincides with Younas.

"Chen."

Younas's shout came, and Chen Mu, who was resting, turned around when he heard the voice: "Here." ”

"I'm ready to play." Younas's eyes were like knives, looking at Chen Mu thoughtfully.

"No problem!" Chen Mu got up and exercised a little, and his heart was also surging.

Will it succeed this time?

Can Younas's strategy achieve the desired effect?

Chen Mu couldn't predict what hadn't happened yet, but he knew. This is the last chance for the Chinese team.

"Okay, we see both sides ready to enter. The second quarter of the game is about to begin. The U.S. team put on a classic extreme small lineup, with fast speed and accurate shooting, which is unguardable. The Chinese team ......"

Yoga looked at the bench of the Chinese team, and halfway through his words, he seemed to have been choked by the neck, and swallowed the second half of the sentence directly.

No way??

Yoga blinked. I took a closer look at the players of the Chinese team who were about to enter the stadium, and I couldn't believe what I saw.

"Hehe, I really used this trick!"

Beside Yoga, Director Zhang, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, and said with a smile: "The Chinese team is going to play three highs!" ”

"Three, three high??"

Yoga naturally knows what the three highs mean. This question is not about what the three highs are, but about asking Director Zhang, in the face of such an American team, is it useful to play the three highs? ?

"Yes, Sangao, the Chinese team is estimated to send Chen Jianghua and Wang Shipeng as the backfield, the strikers are Chen Mu and the United Arab Emirates, and the center is Dazhi. Three interior players in the frontcourt, this is a typical three-high lineup! ”

Director Zhang said with a smile: "In this way, the inside advantage of the Chinese team will be infinitely expanded, and the American team will have no way to prevent such three highs, and the Chinese team's offense will improve!" ”

"But, but what about defense?" Yoga is not a fool, he can understand what Director Zhang said, but on the defensive end, the three-high lineup will be blown up by the counterattack of the small man!

"You're afraid of the U.S. team fighting back, right?" Director Zhang glanced at Yoga and said with a smile: "That's right, the overall three-high lineup is slow, and I am most afraid of the small man counterattacking quickly." But what is the basis of the counterattack? Now that the Chinese team has reached the top three, can the American team still grasp that 'foundation' and fight back? ”

...... basis for a counterattack?

Yoga thought about it for a moment, and it was nothing more than defense, steals, blocks, forcing turnovers, playing chasing balls, and ......

I see!

Yoga finally understood, and when he looked at Younas again, he only felt that those deep eyes were full of wisdom.

The game continued, the Chinese team attacked first, Chen Jianghua and Chen Mu made a block, and after passing the ball, they ran around once, completed a hand-to-hand pass from Chen Mu's hands, and then threw a shot.

It's short!

As soon as he made a shot, Chen Jianghua knew that it was not good, the shot just now was too urgent, the action was not complete, and his strength was shorter.

The U.S. players were waiting for this moment, and Wade had already rushed out like lightning ready to fight back. But when he ran to the three-point line, he found that none of the players of the Chinese team were ready to return to defense.

This is......

"Smack!"

Under the basket, the big yellow-skinned man took off with a bang, grabbed the basketball fiercely, turned around and hit the board lightly.

"How's that, Dwayne, who's the Yellow Sparrow?"

Looking at Wade, who was stunned, Chen Mu smiled and pretended to be a fork and went back. (To be continued.) )

PS: Wade: What do you say, Chinese boy? Do you think I can understand Chinese terriers??
