From today on is the king

Chapter 1300 1299. A clear advantage! (810 ask for a monthly ticket!)

Spain's starting lineup Jose Calderon, Rudy Fernandez, Alex Mbru, Felipe Reyes, Marc Gasol.

The Spanish team actually does not have as many stars in the NBA as Argentina. Most of them are from the Barcelona team. Pau Gasol and Calderon are all players from the Barcelona team exported to the NBA, and they play well together.

Of course, compared to the Chinese team, Spain with Navarro of the Cavaliers on the bench still has a lot more NBA players.

However, La Liga is considered one of the strongest leagues in the European Basketball League. Calderon and Fernandez are not counted. The players in the Chinese team, except Liu Mang, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Yi Jianlian, rely on Liu Mang's national light buff to be a little stronger than them.

Originally, with Pau Gasol, the Spanish team had a strong advantage, but now, it's different!

In fact, the words of the media are not unreasonable, but very reasonable!
With Liu Mang, Yao Ming, and Wang Zhizhi, who has played a clear role in the Lakers and has partnered with Yao Ming for nearly seven or eight years, plus other players who have been greatly improved, the Chinese team has advantages in terms of strength and psychology compared to Spain without Gasol!
At seven o'clock, the game officially began. The referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.

Yao Ming showed his glory again and won the jump ball from Marc Gasol!
Yao Ming will have an advantage if he jumps the ball with the Spanish team.

The Chinese team goes first!
Yao Ming got to the inside and began to aggressively block for the ball.

The reason for putting Wang Zhizhi on the bench is to take advantage of Yao Ming's singles advantage in the paint!

Now Marc Gasol, who is 117 meters tall and has not yet grown up and weighs [-] kilograms, can be considered a heavy center, but compared with Yao Ming, the gap is too big!
Liu Mang lobbed the ball into Yao Ming's hands. When Reyes pinched him, Yao Ming fiercely knocked them apart and slammed the ball into the basket!
Without Gasol interfering, Yao Ming dominates inside!

The main reason is that in the previous games of this World Championships, the pitchers of the Chinese team were very accurate, which gave Yao Ming a good singles opportunity!

Little Gasol was stunned by the first ball!

That feeling of being completely unstoppable is terrifying!

Facing Yao Ming, who is at the age of 26 and entering his prime, and Gasol, who has not yet made it to the NBA, it is very difficult to stop Yao Ming without his brother!
The Spanish team's strongest defense is inside, but without Gasol, the inside defense collapsed!

Fortunately, they were good at attacking. Looking back, Fernandez singled Wang Shipeng to a mid-range toss shot... also entered!
The Spanish team did not give up because of the visible strength gap. Under the watchful eyes of Gasol on the sidelines, the game started very positively.

When it came time for the Chinese team to attack, Yao Ming continued to attack!
The task Yao Ming received today is to penetrate the inside line, and it is best to beat down the opponent's little Gasol.

The first ball was not defended, and he didn't even give any obstacles. This time, Gasol struggled against Yao Ming who received the ball, and pushed Yao Ming aggressively. The action was very rough. Although Yao Ming missed the hook ball when he turned around, it caused a foul for Gasol!
Yao Ming went to the free throw line and made two free throws.

The Spanish team was shocked by Yao Ming's terrifying singles at the basket. Compared with Yao Ming who was thinner two years ago, Yao Ming is a monster now!

They finally understood why the U.S. team scored 5 points in 8 singles by Yao Ming in the second quarter. The monster is not enough to describe Yao Ming, he is simply a dinosaur!
It's true that Gasol is stronger than Yao Ming in the international arena, but Gasol is responsible for scoring, rebounding, assisting, defending...a catch.

Yao Ming’s rebounding ability in the international arena is not as good as Yi Jianlian’s. He can’t compare with Gasol. He can only defend the basket. There is a gap between Gasol’s ability to expand to the three-point line, and his passing is not as good as Gasol’s.This is a super center who can average 7.8 points per game in the Rockets in the original time and space!

Yao Ming's inside singles are simply destroying other people's self-confidence!

Little Gasol was full of ambitions and wanted to beat Yao Ming when his brother was away, and then he was beaten to death.

Scoring 3 points on 3-of-10 shooting, Yao Ming took all of the Chinese team's opening points.

Get 3 points in 10 minutes!
The Spanish team made 6 of 3 shots in the opening game, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and scored 7 points. It was already an amazing performance. They played very well, but Yao Ming was too fierce. In the 3rd minute of the game, Gasol was fouled twice by Yao Ming!
The Spanish team called a timeout!
With only the [-]-meter Felipe Reyes' help defense, Yao Ming only needs to protect the ball, which is far different from Gasol.

One is currently No.1 in the international arena, and the other is a substitute. The gap can be imagined.

The Spanish team looked at Yao Ming's simple and honest Chinese character face, but they didn't expect it to be a Tyrannosaurus rex with not so short head and hands!
Playing against the U.S. team requires Yao Ming to mainly contain him, but against Spain without Pau Gasol, Silver Fox Harris allows Yao Ming to fully demonstrate his strength as the number one center in the NBA!
Seeing Yao Ming returning to the bench with his fists clenched in a stern expression, the Chinese fans on the scene almost shouted out!

So arrogant!

Gasol was beaten down, and it was time for Yao Ming to rest. He replaced the inside combination of Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian. The outside line did not change, and no one could guard Fernandez. Liu Mang had to defend Calderon's pick-and-roll attack.

In the final, Yao Ming can't be the only one!
……

After the timeout, the Spanish team replaced Gasol Jr. with Jorge Ibogasa, and the others remained unchanged.

Calderon received the frontcourt ball and looked at Liu Mang on the three-point line. Calderon lost both Gasol and was at a loss.

Although he is no longer an Eagles player, Calderon was Liu Mang's substitute for the past three years and knows how terrifying Liu Mang is.

"Relax, don't be nervous, I just rub my legs apart... Ah bah, no, I hit slowly, let me see Jose's strength." Liu Mang pressed up on Calderon.

Calderon listened to Liu Mang's yellow accent, instead of being angry, he felt as if a pot of cold water had been poured on his head.

Calderon knows Liu Mang's flamboyance too well. If Liu Mang doesn't like his opponent, he doesn't even bother to talk to him. Only when Liu Mang is serious will he use words to tease his opponent.

But now... Calderon really hopes that Liu Mang will look down on him!

"Boss, you will be my boss all your life, and I will be your most loyal substitute...don't be like this..."
