After the Chinese national team defeated the Greek team, the next two games were also divided. The German team finally won one game, avoiding the tragic fate of ending the group stage with a record of all losses, while the Angola team is still in a difficult situation. At the point of one victory, it seems that the bottom end is inevitable. Together with the Iran team in the first group, it is called the most tragic team in this Olympic Games.

After a break, all members of the Chinese team appeared in the stands again and watched the whole game between Spain and the United States. The Spanish team was in a state of catching up throughout the game. The Spanish team had too many chances. It seemed that the Spanish team only overtook the score once, and it only lasted for two rounds before overtaking and coming back.

It’s too strong. This American team is more mature than the one in the World Championships. It pays more attention to the team effect, that is, it has the manifestation of individual ability and teamwork. Moreover, the hard fight against the Chinese team in the first game made them Pay more attention to every opponent. Although the Spanish team tried their best, they were finally defeated in front of their strength.

Especially in the last 3 minutes of the game, the Spanish team once chased the score to only two points. At this time, coach Krzyzewski made adjustments and adjusted Carmelo Anthony from the position of power forward to the position of small forward. Shooting guard Kobe Bryant, point guard LeBron James.

The weakness of the Spanish team's defense on the front and back line is hit by this lineup, especially LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. Their impact, shooting ability, and passing ability are vividly displayed. Kobe Bryant At this time, Leant took on the responsibility of the team's metronome and managed the offense in an orderly manner. [

In just 3 minutes, the US team pulled the point difference to more than double digits, and finally defeated the Spanish team with a [-]-point advantage, maintaining an unbeaten record.

As a result, the US team still ranked first in the group with an undefeated record, the Chinese team ranked second with a record of three wins and one loss, and the Spanish team tied for third with the Greek team with a record of two wins and two losses. The record advantage is at the front.

The German team had three losses and one win, and the Angola team had four losses. With only one game left, they have basically lost the possibility of entering the quarter-finals, and there is only a theoretical possibility.Unless the German team can beat the Chinese national team by a big score, Greece and Spain both lose the game, there is still this possibility.

If the Greek team meets the US team, it is really possible to lose, but the Spanish team loses to Angola and the Chinese team loses to the German team.

In this way, on the last day of the group stage, the winners were determined in turn for six consecutive games, and there were no surprises.

The Iranian team once again lost to the Croatian team with a gap of six points. They were eliminated by zero points in all five games. In fact, they had a chance to win this game. They played very well with a mourning temperament. In the third quarter, the Croatian team once led by seven points, but as soon as they entered the fourth quarter, the Croatian team's three-pointer sense suddenly recovered, and the arrows rained down and quickly equalized the score. Then they used their experience to firmly control Depending on the situation on the court, until the end of the game, the Iranian team did not give too many opportunities.

In the match between Australia and Lithuania, Australia probably felt that they were sure to qualify in the group stage and played very relaxed. Although the Lithuanian team did not play hard, they worked harder than them after all, so Lithuania won the game in the end.

In Argentina's game against Russia, because there was no problem in qualifying, the Argentine team played the whole game with a substitute lineup. Their main players Ginobili, Scola, Nocioni, and Oberto didn't even play for a minute. , and eventually lost to Russia, which was fighting for honor.

But even so, Russia, which had two wins and three losses, was also eliminated, and went fishing with the Iranian team, which had lost all five games. Since Argentina lost to Russia in the last game, they had four wins and one loss just like Lithuania. The record, because of the small points, was squeezed to the second place in the group, and the Croatian team rose to the third in the group, and the Australian team was fourth in the group.

The Chinese team was planning to compete with the German team. As a result, before the game, it was reported that Chris Kaman was unwell and would not participate in the game. In fact, there was nothing wrong with his health, but he didn’t want to It takes such an effort, and in the game, you have to fight against Yao Ming, which is hard work.

In this way, it is impossible for Dirk Nowitzki alone to cause trouble for the Chinese team. Stephen only played for more than 20 minutes, and Yao Ming only played for more than ten minutes, so he still won. Contest.

The U.S. team played very fiercely against the Greek team. Although winning or losing does not affect the qualifying of the two sides, but due to the old enmity in the World Championships, the U.S. team played very hard, and the Greek team was not to be outdone. It was like returning to the old arena, full of gunpowder and flames of war. In the end, the US team won the game by virtue of their strength. The price was Jason Kidd's muscle strain.

In the last game, Spain defeated Angola without bloodshed. Angola has no desire to fight, nor does it mean to fight for honor. You can also experience Chinese food, watch the beautiful scenery of China, and enjoy the hospitable hospitality of the Chinese people, and you will be satisfied.

In this way, the rankings of the second group are divided. The US team ranks first with ten points in five games, the Chinese team ranks second with eight points in four wins and one loss, the Spanish team ranks third with three wins and two losses, and the Greek team has two wins. Ranked fourth with three losses, with Germany and Angola out.

After the qualifying teams of the two groups are determined, a quarter of the warring parties are also determined at the same time. According to the rules, No.1 in the first group will play against No.4 in the second group, that is, Lithuania will play against Greece; No.2 of the first group played against No.3 of the second group, that is, Argentina played against Spain; the third of the first group played against the second of the second group, that is, Croatia played against China; the fourth of the first group played against The first of the second group, namely the Australian team against the US team.

This kind of cross-play method seems unfair, but it has always been the rule of the tournament. This is to ensure that more strong teams enter the later games, making the game more intense as it goes to the back.

However, because the strength of the second group is obviously stronger, after the list of matches came out, many experts and media believed that in addition to the US team's certainty to enter the next round, the Chinese national team should have no problem playing against the Croatian team.

But the other two groups of opponents are hard to say who can enter the next round. Even the No.1 Lithuania team in the first group, their actual strength is not as good as the Argentine team. It is difficult to win the first place in the group. Although their opponent Greece is also weaker, it is still difficult to predict who will win.

As for the opponents of Argentina and Spain, one is the gold medalist of the last Olympic Games and the other is the world champion. The championship match between them is also considered to be the most worthy of appreciation and the most suspenseful in the quarter-finals a match. [

Although the Argentine team's record in recent years is not very ideal, but the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and their core player Ginobili has also recovered, and other players have also grown up, while the Spanish team has all but the US team. The most luxurious lineup is also a lineup formed over many years, with excellent style of play and tacit cooperation.

Therefore, which of these two teams can enter the next round is the focus of many experts' discussions. Relatively speaking, everyone is more optimistic about the Spanish team, because the Spanish team has always had a good record in the past two years.

However, some people also put forward counter-evidence. Take the failure of the Chinese national team against the same teammate as an example. There seems to be no obvious difference between the two teams. It hasn't started yet, and the war of words on the media side is about to start.

The Argentine team does not want to meet the Spanish team, and vice versa, and the Spanish team does not want to meet the Argentine team. At this time, the coach of Argentina is a bit regretful. The last game should not be released. If it is for the first place, it will be against the Greek team. If so, better.

Because their game comes first, there is still room for choice, like Spain, there is no room for choice at all, and their position has been fixed in this position before the game.

After a day's rest, the quarter-finals began, and all the games were still played within one day. The first game of the four games was the match between the Chinese team and the Croatian team, and this game was also a game that Chinese fans paid close attention to. of a game.

If this game can be won, the Chinese team will enter the semi-finals, and this will create the best record in the history of the Chinese national men's basketball team. The best result of the Chinese national team before was to reach the quarter-finals. Then they lost. Since the quarterfinals are not ranked, the best result is the quarterfinals.

And if it enters the semi-finals, it will be the semi-finals. This is a significant improvement. The day before the game, the director of the General Administration of Sports, accompanied by a large group of people from the basketball management center, came to the national team's residence and visited the entire country. Team players, encourage the players to work hard, try to strive for better results and so on.

In fact, it was exerting pressure, especially the director, who held Stephen's hand tightly for a long time. As soon as they left, Stephen hurried to wash his hands. The touch of a man.

In this way, under the attention of thousands of fans, the match between the Chinese national team and the Croatian team began.
