Although Milton Barros faced Liu Wei, it was still like a race between a sports car and a pickup truck. Liu Wei couldn't catch up with the opponent at all, but Milton Barros alone could not reverse the team's decline. His passing was in place. But his teammates are basically being closely guarded. Passing the ball alone cannot solve the offensive problem, and his offense is not enough for him to open the situation.

When shooting outside, Liu Wei can interfere with his shooting by relying on his height; it is not so easy to break through to the basket, with two big men over [-] meters waiting there; several consecutive independent attacks have not yielded From then on, it was a heavy blow to Milton Burrows' self-confidence, and his pace involuntarily slowed down, and Liu Wei was gradually able to keep up with his pace.

At this time, the head coach of Angola made a gesture, and the possession of the ball was immediately exchanged to Armando Costa. He was in Stephen's defense, but in the face of Stephen's defensive pressure, Armando Costa did not panic at all. , On the contrary, the performance is more stable and has a big picture.

Compared with Milton Barros, although he may not be as good as the opponent in terms of passing skills, his passing awareness and timing are a little stronger than Milton Barros, and he is also more generous than Milton Barros, especially Just now, under Stephen's close defense, he suddenly made a half-turn and feint to pass the ball behind his back, which seemed full of ingenuity.

Stephen looked at Armando Costa with great interest. He has dark skin (he is black, of course he is black), short hair that is clean and dry, and his muscle type is somewhat similar to Stephen's. It doesn't look so exaggerated, but it has strength Sensational, yet flexible.

Facing Stephen's oppressive defense, you must know that Stephen is far stronger than him in terms of strength, fame, height and strength, but not only did he not shrink back at all, but he became more courageous as he fought. No such player is Stephen's favorite type.

Not only on the court, but also in life, almost everyone has faced strong pressure at one time. In order to dodge, this is called avoiding its edge, and it is also called strategic shifting. Although it has succeeded in a short period of time and picked out the blow, in essence, from a spiritual point of view, this is even more of a failure.

It is impossible for a person without a strong will to achieve the ultimate achievement. In Stephen's view, even if Armando Costa is not as talented as Milton Barros, he also has better development potential than Milton Barros. The amazing talent is just One of the necessary conditions for success is that there are many talented players in history, but most of them are lost among the crowd. Apart from luck and opportunities, the biggest reason is that they lack a strong player. the will of the recipient.

The game of will is intangible, elusive, and has no fixed pattern, but it does exist and affects everyone. Take Michael Jordan as an example, his skills, his His body and his fortune are far superior to others, but when everyone mentions Michael Jordan, what he is full of praise for is his desire for victory. He has raised his desire for victory to a higher level, using it to drive himself and persevere Training hard, consistently improving and improving, and doing everything to win on the court.

Everyone knows that Jordan is famous for his offense, but he is also the best defensive player. When everyone says he can only score, he can also get triple-doubles in seven consecutive games and get triple-doubles ten times in eleven games. Double, is to prove that he can do everything, but for the sake of victory, he chose the option that is most beneficial to the team.

When Stephen first entered the league, he was still adapting to the league with trepidation, but fortunately, he came to a team like the San Antonio Spurs. Never being willing to be inferior to others has had a profound impact on him.

In the Spurs, he developed a sense of honor in pursuit of victory, developed a style of play and character that integrates himself with the team, and he also learned not to give up at any time, but sometimes , but for the sake of long-term considerations, endure the momentary anger.

After arriving at the Sonics, besides always challenging his limits, he also thought about how to become a legend, and he didn't want to be an uncrowned king like Karl Malone and Charles Barkley, but a real legend. Like Michael Jordan, like Larry Bird.

He always cherishes the changes that have taken place in himself, and regards this change as God's extra care for him. At the same time, he always maintains his love for basketball in his heart like he did when he was a teenager. Everyone's will attributes are different, but they all have different characteristics. It has its preciousness.

Therefore, when dealing with Armando Costa, Stephen has a bit of a mentality of cherishing talents, but this does not mean that Stephen will release water, but that Stephen always keeps the pressure on a pressure line, and constantly adjusts with the performance of the opponent. See where the other party's tolerance is.

Everyone's will also has a limit. Stephen wanted to see where the limit of Armando Costa was. Under Stephen's strong pressure, Armando Costa was always calm, although his full performance could not help The team overtook the score, but it prevented the Chinese team from widening the gap.

Stephen observed him very patiently. Armando Costa was like an ordinary African player. He used his body more than his consciousness, and his consciousness more than his tactics. Their tactics were very simple, and they were the most basic elements of basketball. , but with the cooperation of their physical talents, they played quite well.

Jonas was very surprised why Stephen had been entangled with Armando Costa for so long, and Stephen once gave up his responsibility in the entire defensive system in order to defend him alone. This situation is very rare for Jonas .

However, the performance of Armando Costa is also worthy of Stephen's attention. If Stephen hadn't held Armando Costa firmly in check, the Chinese team would even be in danger of falling behind. At this time, the small forward Carlos Mores of the Angola national team suddenly started to show off , and hit all three consecutive shots, leading the score in one fell swoop.

At this time, Stephen gave up his key observation of Armando Costa. It is undeniable that Armando Costa's consciousness, talent, and will are very outstanding, but it is still not enough to impress Stephen to take care of him, help him, let him Let the higher attack.

Stephen slid and jumped for a layup and scored a layup, then came back and dragged his master. Although the steal was unsuccessful, it disrupted the Angola team's formation. Soon their offense lost its rhythm and was easily blocked.

Stephen made a realistic fake move, knocking Armando Costa to the ground, and then Stephen hit a three-point shot to overtake the score again.

By the time Stephen left the field, the Chinese national team had already led by more than [-] points, and in this half of the quarter, Stephen scored [-] points by himself, and among the [-] points, three three-pointers made three three-pointers. He made three of three two-pointers and one of three free throws.

The [-]% hit rate makes people see how easy he is against these opponents. The Angola team has never given up and has been doing counterattacks non-stop, but their height disadvantage is too obvious, and there is almost no attack against the Chinese team. make an impact.

Under Stephen's control, their advantage in steals could not be brought into play. Unlike the Russian team, they used steals to get a lot of offensive opportunities. In front of the Chinese team, Stephen has always been used as a half point guard.

In the end, the Chinese team won the second victory of the Stankovic Cup with a 31-point advantage. Stephen scored [-] points, eight rebounds and six assists in this game, but what he showed in the game was not It's not just the data.

Although the Angola team lost, they lost with honor. This is not reflected in the score. After watching the game, many people realized that Angola is not the weakest team among the four teams. On the contrary, it looks like the strongest team other than the Chinese team.

When it came time to face the Russian team, Jonas adjusted his lineup and tactics. In addition, Yao Ming suffered repeated foot injuries. Therefore, Yonas let Yao Ming rest in this game. In addition to replacing Yao Ming with Wang Zhizhi After that, Zhu Fangyu and Wang Shipeng were also put on the court, and Stephen appeared at the point guard position.

This lineup is almost the most capable lineup for the national team at present. Whether it is Wang Zhizhi or Yi Jianlian, or Zhu Fangyu or Wang Shipeng, they all have three-pointers at their fingertips. Then Stephen plays in the center and disturbs the opponent at the same time. The outside line is supplemented by three-point tactics. .

Since two victories have already been won, and the Serbian team also defeated the Russian team, even if the Chinese team loses to the Russian team, even if the Chinese team loses to the Russian team, they can still enter the championship battle by counting small points, so Jonas chose this game to do A testing ground for new tactics.

As a result, the Chinese national team shot 32 three-pointers in this game, and hit [-] of them, and the shooting percentage exceeded [-]%. Stephen made three of four shots and Wang Zhizhi made three of three shots. They came up, but in this game, the Russian team was completely helpless. From the very beginning of the game, they were led by the Chinese national team's two consecutive three-pointers, and then they continued to lead until the end.

In particular, Wang Zhizhi performed very well in this game. Not only did he only have three-pointers, but when the opponent focused on defending his three-pointers, he was able to use his height and strength to break through. In terms of problems, Wang Zhizhi's performance was not much worse than Stephen's.
