From today on is the king

Chapter 1603 1602. The Showdown in the Domain of Gods

too horizontal...

Calderon, Gasol, and Gasol Jr., the Spanish giants, don't know how to deal with Liu Mang's tyrannical strength who is proficient in various styles of play.

So comprehensive!In the past seven years of his professional career, Liu Mang has used more than 200 star cards of various stars plus a large number of ordinary players with various skills that allow him to gain a foothold in the NBA. Liu Mang, who is about to turn 26, has entered the peak of his career!In the finals against the Suns two months ago, the opponent felt the most painful despair.

And Calderon is a person who directly feels that kind of despair, that kind of tyrannical strength that is overwhelming and has no way to deal with it, and now Calderon feels it again.

In the group stage and the quarter-finals, Liu Mang's performance was generally relatively flat. Even when he was playing Manu Ginobili, Liu Mang's performance was very ordinary, but this time against Spain, Liu Mang played low post, high post, and singles from outside the three-point line... From the very beginning of the game, he showed his strongest side!

Yao Ming is willing to open up to the middle distance, use his huge body to pick and roll his running teammates, and use his shooting ability to open up space for Liu Mang; Yi Jianlian is the best off-ball team player of the Chinese team. With three years of NCAA career experience, he has met Jordan Mafal, Darren Collison, and Russell Westbrook. The best abilities for Liu Mang are his off-ball cutting ability and offensive rebounding ability; The team has suffered a lot. Entering the NBA one year earlier can develop their own abilities one year earlier. It is enough to be responsible for advancing and pass to Liu Mang. Wang Shipeng is responsible for the corner three-pointer...

This lineup, the head coach of the Chinese team, Yinhu Harris, used it as the main lineup for the first time in this Olympics, in order to make it difficult for the opponent to guard against a real strong enemy!

Of course, the most important one, the core that can make this lineup unleash its powerful power, is Liu Mang who has entered the peak period!

The unshakable realm of the gods!
After playing three-fifths of the first quarter, in the 6th minute, Liu Mang scored 11 points and 3 assists in more than half a quarter, helping the Chinese team score 18-9. When the score was about to open to 10 points, the Spanish team called a timeout!

Liu Mang didn't even dare to make substitutions in the Spanish team!
The Spanish team's starting lineup is their strongest lineup. Four NBA stars plus an 18-year-old quasi-NBA star. They have no better lineup. This lineup is the core of their ability to become the third in the world.

But when I met Liu Mang who entered the "field" state, double-teamed Liu Mang, Liu Mang passed the ball and assisted, not double-teaming... Who can stand 5 out of 4 shots?

The Spanish team has been suffering, waiting for the other core of the Chinese team to go to rest, that is, Yao Ming, who needs to maintain his physical fitness, to go to rest.

This is the core goal of the Spanish team when preparing for the semi-finals. Liu Mang, a physical monster, has not missed any game in his career due to injuries, consecutive away games, etc., and can attack and dunk in the last minute of double overtime. The Spanish team can only endure.

But I didn't expect that Yao Ming's style of play today is the style of play in the 2007 finals. He is responsible for opening up the space, and Liu Mang is alone.

After all, Liu Mang did the work of Kobe and Gasol of the Lakers by himself!

The Spanish team prepared to use Gasol to consume Yao Ming, and after Yao Ming left the field, the whole team's tactic of encircling and suppressing Liu Mang failed!

The Spanish team wanted to consume Yao Ming with the tactics of the Eagles, while the Chinese team used the tactics of the Lakers to counter it!

The cores of the two teams understand each other's cores, and both teams used the best tactics available. The difference is... Liu Mang is stronger!Stronger than Gasol!
……

Back from the timeout, the Chinese team replaced Yao Ming, and the Spanish team replaced Gasol Jr.

In the game with Gasol and Liu Mang, Yao Ming and Gasol Jr. are two heavy centers...the two are very useful in tactical battles, but when it comes to giving it a go, unfortunately, the two are really a burden.

When the opponent has a big man who can open up space, even Gasol Jr. in his peak period is not good at dealing with it; Yao Ming can be regarded as the third strongest insider in the international basketball world, but under the rules of international competitions, he is absolutely restrained whether he is playing Gasol or Milicic.

Another point is that the physical fitness of these two people is not good. Yao Ming's physical fitness is not good, and Gasol's is because he is fat.

Both teams took down their heavy weapons in a tacit agreement.

The Chinese team replaced Liu Mang, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Wang Zhizhi, and Yi Jianlian.

The Spanish team replaced the lineup of Calderon, Juan Navarro, Fernandez, Felipe Reyes and Gasol.

Without Gasol Jr., Gasol leads the team alone, has a complete three-second zone, and can finally show his abilities to the fullest!
On Liu Mang's side, there are four pitchers... Although the one-star shooting style is easy to be criticized, it has to be said that this is the most suitable lineup for superstars to fully demonstrate their abilities.

The best inside and outside lines in the international basketball world... It is possible that the two best players in the international basketball world have led the lineup that is most suitable for their output to start a contest!

If Liu Mang is the god of the outside line in the international basketball world, then Gasol may be the god of the inside line in the international basketball world today!

During the tactical stage of the competition, the Spanish team was restrained everywhere. When it came to the star matchup, the performance of the Spanish team went up against the trend, and Gasol entered an unstoppable strength!
The outside line composed of the three major NBA players has a power forward who can cut and shoot. Gasol wantonly demonstrated his ability.

It has to be said that there is a gap in the lineup of role players. At this stage, Liu Mang tried his best to maintain a competitive state with Gasol. In terms of three-point stability, Calderon, Fernandez, and Navarro are better than Wang Shipeng and Zhu Fangyu. They can make three-pointers from long distances as ordinary three-pointers, and these two play in the CBA.

Fortunately, Liu Mang is in excellent form today, keeping the point difference above 5 points.

It seems that the Spanish team has maintained the advantage in the field from the second half of the first quarter to the first half of the second quarter. Gasol is not good at the international arena. If there is no Liu Mang, the most powerful player in the international arena may not be Anthony and McGrady, but Gasol!
But in the face of Liu Mang, who was too horizontal, Gasol had already done his best, and the Spanish team as a whole also provided Gasol with the greatest help, but the Spanish team still failed to overtake the score.

At the 7th minute of the second quarter, with 3 minutes left in the first half, Yao Ming came back!
In 3 minutes, Yao Ming was no longer in charge of opening up the space, but asked Liu Mang to take a breather outside the three-point line. It was not because of his physical fitness, but because Liu Mang racked his brains and thought hard in the game and applied the method against the Spanish team.

After Yao Ming went up, he started a strong attack!

After Liu Mang dribbled the ball to Yao Ming, who was stuck in the low post and asked for the ball from Gasol Jr., he opened up space with Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, and Wang Zhizhi to watch Yao Ming play singles.

Yao Ming passed the ball when he was double-teamed, and played one-on-one with all his strength when he was not double-teamed.

This style of play, the Lakers will not easily use it when facing a heavy center like Gasol, but if Yao Ming really wants to go all out in singles, it will be difficult for Gasol to defend against it!

It's just that this is a huge burden on Yao Ming's physical fitness.

But if it's only 3 minutes, and with the backing of Liu Mang, Yao Ming has nothing to fear!

In 3 minutes, Yao Ming scored 6 points and 2 assists, Liu Mang and Wang Zhizhi each made a three-pointer, and scored 3 points in 12 minutes!
If Calderon hadn't scored two three-pointers at the end of the first half, Gasol hit a low singles throw, and Yao Ming came up to attack this wave, the point difference would have been widened!
After halftime, the Chinese team led the Spanish team by 59 points 50 to 9!
……

The fierce confrontation, the undefensible two great gods in the international basketball world, the Chinese team and the Spanish team played the most magnificent game!
In terms of viewing, this game is undoubtedly the best game of this Olympic Games, even surpassing the U.S. team's match against Argentina.

The fans watched lively, and the players played very excitedly!

It was so cool!
刘莽半场24分9篮板7助攻1抢断1盖帽，加索尔21分6板8助攻，两人打出了史诗级的半场对决！

Whether it is Liu Mang or Gasol, they are not sure whether they will have the opportunity to play such a crazy game in the Olympic Games in the future. This feeling makes them reluctant to leave after entering that wonderful state. I hope this game can continue forever.

Liu Mang doesn’t know how Yao Ming’s status will be in four years. Such a giant center, even if he silently protects him from serious injuries, his status will inevitably decline. Not every giant center has the talent of O’Neal.

Gasol doesn't know whether Calderon, Fernandez and others will degenerate four years later, and Rubio and Gasol Jr. will not make it to a certain level in the future.

But this is basketball, and games are always decided.

And... Both Liu Mang and Gasol want to win!Everyone wants to step on the final stage!

After the start of the second half of the game, Liu Mang and Gasol once again started a duel in the field of gods. In the international arena, they are the strongest gods!
Yao Ming can only be a role player to open up space. Top international players such as Calderon and Gasol can only choose to do the dirty work, because even if they play the strongest strength, they cannot be compared with these two.

Liu Mang's outside singles, breakthrough points, low-post blocking, and relying on "rejecting horses" to predict Gasol's high-post organization offense, and relying on his NBA first-level interior defense to help defend...

Gasol used his golf intelligence to deal with Liu Mang's unreasonable ability to predict high-post blocks, relying on the strongest low-post skills in the international arena, relying on the vision brought by his height, and relying on the lack of defense for three seconds in the international arena...

The two supreme gods who can dominate both offense and defense in the international arena continue their epic duel!

The duel will be the winner.

In the World Championship two years later in the original time and space, what did Kevin Durant rely on to defeat Gasol's personal ability to dominate the international basketball world?
Rely on three points!

Players' shooting range will become wider and wider, which is an unstoppable trend.

And in this world, no one can vote better than Liu Mang!

At the critical moment of the fourth quarter, Liu Mang exploded!
