After a day's rest, all the national teams ushered in their second games. The Chinese team is still the first game of the second group, against another strong team in the same group, the Spanish national team.

Since the Olympic basketball competition has only one venue, the Wukesong Gymnasium, the games must be played in sequence. Before the Chinese team's game, the first group played three games.

The Croatian team defeated the Russian team, and the Argentine team also defeated the Australian team. Iran's only Asian Championship champion played against Lithuania. The result can be imagined.

Although the Lithuanian team has fallen, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and the tiger is dead. The Iranian team has no ability to resist against the Lithuanian team, which fully proves the backwardness of Asian basketball. The head is really nothing to brag about.

Judging from the performance of the Iranian team, the only reason for their existence in this Olympics is to play a few soy sauce games back. Although the strength of the first group is relatively weak, it is difficult for them to win a victory. [

It's not that one or some people see it this way, but almost everyone sees it this way. As the descendants of Persian warriors, they can barely catch the eye in physical confrontation, but they can't do it in other aspects. Tactics require technology but not technology.

Physical confrontation alone is not enough in basketball, and they don't have an absolute advantage physically, just not bad, which is not enough to help them win a victory.

During the warm-up phase before the start of the game, Stephen saw Ricky Rubio and greeted him. For a superstar player like Stephen who is already considered a senior, Rubio still respects him very much, and ran over to express his admiration Feelings.

Stephen expressed his willingness to play with the other party in a very cryptic manner, and he didn't know if the other party understood. The guy is so clever, he shouldn't be a stupid person, but can a Spaniard understand Stephen's American English? , it is really hard to say.

For such a player with idols and strengths, especially a new star player with limited potential, seeing him, Stephen couldn't help but feel that time has passed. I think that I used to be full of dreams and longing for the coming of greatness, but slowly The ground is defeated by reality.

Learn to accept that many things are irresistible factors of manpower, such as the adjustment of the team lineup, such as the trade of players, many things are not what you think, such as the coach of the team.

During Coach Benjamin's era, Stephen didn't have a deeper understanding of basketball, especially professional basketball, so he just felt that Coach Benjamin was a good person and had rich tactics, but he didn't know anything else.

When it comes to the San Antonio Spurs, Popovich is a master coach. Whether it is the use of players, on-the-spot command, or the formulation of game strategies, he is very good, and his tactics are not bad. It's a bit too wasteful to use it all.

At the beginning, Stephen came to the Sonics with Presti and Carlesimo in order to protect themselves in a new environment. The three formed an offensive and defensive alliance, and in a season of cooperation, Stephen and Carlesimo's cooperation is still very pleasant, especially Carlesimo's respect and trust in Stephen, even to the point of laissez-faire.

It is said that there is no problem between the two sides. With the full cooperation of the two sides, the Sonics won the first record in the Western Conference, which is enough to prove that internal unity is the greatest guarantee of combat effectiveness. But in the playoffs, especially in the game against the Spurs , a glimpse of Carlesimo's shortcomings.

In particular, Popovich knows him too well, and he can basically guess the response, but after working together for such a long time, Carlesimo can't figure out Popovich's thoughts. Basically, the entire series After the game, the Spurs are actively seeking changes, while the Sonics can only respond passively.

There is no problem with tactics, but the command is not good. In terms of knowing the enemy, Carlesimo can neither know the enemy nor know himself. weakness, so San Antonio was able to eliminate the Sonics even though it didn't perform very well.

Although the two teams will lose no matter who advances to the Los Angeles Lakers, Stephen still feels that Carlesimo's ability has dragged down the team.

Although emotionally, Stephen feels that it is quite pleasant to cooperate with Carlesimo, and the relationship between the two has surpassed the general relationship between players and coaches, but Stephen still feels this way.

Especially after coming to the Chinese national team, although the form of the game is slightly different, Stephen discovered another weakness of Carlesimo from Jonas, that is, he is not persistent and firm enough. Of course, this does not mean that Jonas is better than Carlesimo.

The two have their own strengths, but when it comes to difficult or brutal games, Jonas is more likely to win. In other words, Carlesimo is a conventional coach, while Jonas is a coach. A playoff coach.

But it is not so easy to change the head coach. On the one hand, with the record of last season as proof, no one can fire such a successful coach for a reason. Stephen and Carlesimo are like one body, and the results are common. Stephen worked hard to achieve such a good record, but also created a difficulty for himself.

And based on the relationship between the two, at least Stephen can't propose to change the head coach, and the cooperation between Presti and Carlesimo is quite happy, so naturally he won't propose to change the head coach, but Stephen can go to the back Boss, but what will others think of him, so although Stephen is dissatisfied with Carlesimo's ability, he has nothing to do.

The game against Spain made Jonas very cautious, and he always had that serious expression on his face. Even when he played against the US team, he didn't have this expression. [

Could it be that the Spanish team is more difficult to play than the US team, but in Jonas' view, it is indeed the case. The main reason is that the Spanish team has no obvious weaknesses, unlike the US team, which has a weakness of insufficient insiders.

There are two Gasol brothers on the inside, and several capable players on the outside. The bench lineup is deep and there are basically no obvious weaknesses, so you can easily find and attack.

Of course, the current lineup of the Chinese team can also be regarded as balanced internally and externally. It is not because of the uneven strength and the substitute strength. In the game against Argentina, the Chinese team can entangle to the end, but in the game against the US team, it will not work.

The match against the German team in the last game did not let the Spanish team show all their abilities. Although Jonas knew the Spanish team very well, the information at hand still made him confused.

So he made a decision to respond to all changes without change, play his own ball and let the opponent think about it.

Although Marc Gasol and Pau Gasol have different types, they complement each other, but the combination of the two cannot stop Yao Ming's violent performance.

It has been two years since the matchup in the last World Championships. Marc Gasol is like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. As soon as Stephen got the ball, he immediately came to single-handedly defend Yao Ming.

His impression of Yao Ming was still at the time of the last World Championships, but he didn't know that Yao Ming had made significant progress in the past two years.

After the weight loss, Yao Zhong's ability to carry people and post up singles has actually declined, but it is still very easy to face Marc Gasol. It's far worse than that.

Facing the gradual erosion of Yao Ming, Marc Gasol was very helpless. He had no choice but to retreat step by step while trying his best to go up to the top. However, he did not ask his brother Pau Gasol for help, but stood firmly , while preparing for the next defense.

Because after the back body is completed, an attack must be launched. When the attack is made, Yao Ming's strength advantage will not be so obvious, and Marc Gasol is waiting here.

However, Yao Ming was already prepared for this. He was gradually approaching the basket, but before launching an attack, Yao Ming suddenly turned sideways, put his shoulder on Marc Gasol and continued to approach the basket, Marc Gasol Although Er did not expect Stephen's action, he immediately changed the direction of defense.

Who knew that Yao Ming suddenly took a step back at this time, his body also jumped into the air, and a hook came from a position far away from the basket. This is not a small hook under the basket, it is a standard The accurate big hook is also the legendary sky hook.

The U.S. team players who came to the stands to wait for the next game were also very surprised. In the game against them, Yao Ming had never used this move, and the Skyhook was only used by someone of Yao Ming's stature. Jabbar style.

Marc Gasol did not expect that Stephen dared to hook in this position. According to his prediction, if he wanted to use the hook to complete this attack, he had to take two more steps to the basket, and he had to The direction and angle were right, but Yao Ming broke his habit of thinking and shot at a position he hadn't expected.

This kind of shot is defenseable at all, because you are on the other side of him, preventing him from going to the basket, so naturally you can't prevent his shot from this side, and the hook is raised high, even if you have a long arm No matter how good the jump is, it is impossible to prevent his shot.

Pau Gasol also looked at Yao Ming with a look of surprise. Even in the league, he had never seen Yao Ming use this trick, which made the defense extremely difficult, unless two people double-teamed Stephen. Otherwise, Yao Ming would not be able to stop Yao Ming from making such a move.

After Yao Ming scored the goal, he did not make any exaggerated celebrations, but the slightly upturned corners of his mouth revealed his mood. He has also been seeking for his own technical improvement, especially in the past two seasons. The disease has always troubled him, and he is also studying how to attack more energy-saving and reduce the risk of injury. This skyhook is one of the latest achievements recently.
