Chapter 210 The Evolving Opponent
"Both sides will start the game, USA center Shaquille O'Neal, power forward Hakeem Olajuwon, small forward Grant Hill, shooting guard Scottie Pippen, point guard Gary Payton.

The Chinese team started with center Shan Tao, power forward Wang Zhizhi, small forward Liu Yudong, shooting guard Wu Qinglong and point guard Gao Shen. "

"The U.S. team has sent out the strongest lineup. As long as the Chinese team has Gaoshen, that is the strongest lineup."

"It's not that the US team has no chance, because the inside and shooting guards are obvious weaknesses, and it depends on whether they can be caught."

"This game is the first and most important battle for the Chinese men's basketball team to challenge the dominance of the American men's basketball team.

Of course, the US men's basketball team will definitely not give up its dominance willingly, because it is not only related to their face, but also to their inner self.

Because everyone can understand that they lose, but they can't understand that they can still get such a high salary after losing. "Zhang Weiping's commentary set the tone for the game.

In the middle circle, Wang Zhizhi and O'Neal jump the ball.

beep~
As soon as the referee threw the ball, O'Neal jumped.

After all, it was the famous rebound monster who took the first jump and slapped the basketball to Pi Er.

As soon as Pi Er received the ball, Gao Shen had already reached the front. No matter whether Pi Er broke through with the ball or shot directly, he was bound to be taken down.

Pi Er turned sideways and gave the ball to Payton who was behind him. Payton failed to break through Wang Zhizhi, took a step back, and passed it to Hardaway who had slipped to the sideline.

O'Neal has gotten rid of Shan Tao's entanglement, got into the basket, and reached for the ball.

Gao Shen walked in front of Hardaway in two steps, defending himself against the attack.

Hardaway gave the ball to Hill who stopped near the middle circle, Hill gave it to Olajuwon on the other side, and Olajuwon gave it to Pi Er who slipped to the top arc.

The pass covers the entire area of ​​the half court, the range is extremely wide, the power of the ball is also great, and the speed of the ball is so fast that the audience outside the court are dumbfounded
At this time, Gao Shen had just bypassed O'Neal, Wang Zhizhi was still guarding Olajuwon, Shan Tao was inside, and Hu Weidong was still on his way.

Facing Wu Qinglong's defense, Pi Er shot a three-pointer with a jumper.

shuh~
The goal is scored, and the three-pointer is valid.

Pi Er raised his arms and shouted, looking very excited.

"This is the first time someone has scored in front of God. Scott's excitement is completely understandable."

"But O'Neal did commit a jump ball foul first."

"So the others didn't congratulate, but quickly retreated to the backcourt."

"This is an evolution of the tactic the Bulls used to play, when the Bulls failed and it was up to the Americans to succeed."

"After solving the offensive problem, we can only say that the game can be played. If we want to win the game, it depends on the defense."

"Defense is a world-class problem." The commentators commented one after another.

On the sidelines, Gong Luming cheered everyone up and went to the referee to negotiate.

"Don't worry, this kind of misjudgment won't happen again." The referee's attitude was very good, leaving Gong Luming unable to complain.

I had mentally prepared beforehand. After all, I was the world's number one. If I didn't have such a whistle, wouldn't we have so many aircraft carriers for fishing?
On the field, Wu Qinglong also took the initiative to review. "Oh my god, I didn't catch it."

"It's okay, we can't lose." Gao Shen comforted.

It's just a ball, it really doesn't matter.

Wu Qinglong sent the baseline ball, Hill and Pippen chased after blocking, trying to prevent Gao Shen from receiving the ball.

How can it be?

High toss, alley catch.

Pi Er jumped straight up, trying to stretch out his arms in an attempt to block Gao Shen's shot, but his palms almost reached his chest, it was a waste of effort.

Shrinking his body and landing, he threw away Pi Er with a stride, and Gao Shen went straight to the basket. Olajuwon put down Wang Zhizhi to stop him, but it was nothing.

Wang Zhizhi is in a wide open position. As soon as he stretches out his hand, the ball is there and he shoots it.

FIBA's three-point line is shorter than the NBA's three-point line. Shooting three-pointers is similar to mid-to-long distance, and it is very stable without confrontation.

shuh~
The ball goes in.

Wilkens stood up, clapped his hands and shouted: "Don't worry about defense, play offense."

After practicing for so long, it is good to practice offense, and there is no need to think about improving defense.

Even if it improves, it's useless.

The bottom line ball is a Dongfeng express, who can stand it?

Because FIBA ​​has learned the NBA's baseline ball rules, it is impossible to rob the baseline ball, so the Chinese team adopts a man-to-man full-court press defense.

Shan Tao and Wu Qinglong are responsible for one, Wang Zhizhi and Liu Yudong are responsible for one each, and Gaoshen is responsible for two. The specific target depends on the situation, the ball holder and the nearest Gaoshen.

Hill served the ball to Payton and went straight to the frontcourt. Payton took two steps and saw that Gao Shen was approaching. He immediately gave the ball to Olajuwon who was diagonally behind him, and then took a step sideways to block Gao Shen's path.

Olajuwon didn't catch the ball, and directly patted it to Pi Er who was on the sideline. Liu Yudong was in front of Pi Er.

Behind O'Neal, there is Shan Tao on the top, Wu Qinglong is rushing on the side, and Gao Shen has already killed.

He raised his butt to push away Shan Tao, raised his arms to block Gao Shen, and passed the ball to Hill sideways to the bottom corner.

After serving the ball, Hill sprints, just like a [-]-meter runner, the ball arrives before he stops at the bottom corner.

Catch and shoot, swish, go in.

This time, the goal was scored by skill, and everyone in the US team jumped up and cheered loudly.

For the first time, someone led a high-spirited team in the opening game.

Although it was only two rounds, this represented hope, the hope of defeating Gao Shen.

Professionals who watched the game live or on TV were sweating profusely, especially those who had already played against the US team.

From serving to shooting, it only took four seconds, which is basically the speed of Hill from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

The speed of the transfer of the basketball is astonishingly fast, and it hardly hits the ground.

Who can keep up with such a fast speed?

Even if you can keep up at the beginning, your physical strength can't last a quarter.

If the U.S. team resorted to this tactic in the group stage, it would definitely be a miserable death.

Gong Luming walked to the sidelines, clapped his hands, and shouted: "Continue to man-to-man, pay attention to the passing route of the card!

Don't worry, they can't keep such a high success rate all the time. "

Wilkens also shouted: "Let go of Gao, be careful of others, and don't give him a five-double chance."

Therefore, when Gao Shen pushed the ball across the half, the US team started the five-defense and four-defense mode.

I don't know what ecstasy soup Wilkens poured into the players, he really obeyed.

However, the strength of Wang Zhizhi and Liu Yudong is even more irritable than what they saw on TV.

Gao Shen blew the whistle, Wang Zhizhi bypassed Olajuwon and entered the inside line, and flew into the air on the spot facing O'Neal with his arms raised high.

Reaching the top, the ball flew into the hand and completed the dunk with a bang.

The second-evolution version of Wang Zhizhi is not comparable to a digital human. He gave the boss an assist, and even took off on the inside and lobbed it, and he couldn't stop him.
