Chapter 19 Is this really the Chinese team?

On the first competition day of the Olympic Games, various competitions started one after another.

The opening game of the Olympic basketball game, the United States against Argentina.

Before the game, the ambitious Argentina vowed to break the wrist with the United States.

For the Dream Team [-], the fans are more or less disappointed.

Fans believe that compared to the star-studded and big-name gatherings of Meng Yi Meng II, this time Meng San is a bit bleak.

In fact, the most important thing is the lack of superstar Michael Jordan.

In fact, compared to other countries in the world, the Dream Team is still full of superstars.

The "Dream Team Three" included the three major centers in the NBA at that time - Olajuwon, David Robinson, O'Neal, plus the world-recognized best powerful forwards Malone and Barkley. The "Dream Team" in 1992 was even worse.With the addition of Pippen and Payton, the top defensive players in the NBA, this dream team is still the strongest team in the world.

Regarding the expectations of the audience, the head coach Wilkens also promised before the game that the team will definitely bring a basketball feast to Atlanta fans.

And this opening game did not disappoint American fans.

The Argentines played very tenaciously, but the strength of the US team was even better.Whether it was inside or outside, the US team completely crushed their opponents.

In the end, the US team easily defeated Argentina with a score of 96-68.

Argentina tried their best, but in the end they could only leave the field lonely.

However, they are ambitious and still unwilling to give up any game.

Their second group match the day after tomorrow is against Lithuania, and Argentina still insists on shopping with their opponents.

Ms. Hu Shilin, the leader of the Chinese basketball team, came to the scene with a mission and recorded the opening game.

Seeing the Argentine exhausted, she also had a smile in her eyes.

When Director Gong learned about Argentina's disastrous defeat from Team Leader Hu, he also nodded.

Looking at Li Nan who was warming up on the field, Director Gong also muttered lightly.

"Xiao Li, I hope you are right."

At this time, the match between the Chinese team and Angola is about to start, and players from both sides are warming up on the field.

The big black men in Angola looked very excited, jumping and jumping.

After one of their dunks elicited cheers from the fans, the whole team went into grandstanding.

Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The big black men were there showing off their dunking skills and showing off their seemingly good jumping.

Many international friends in the audience gave warm cheers to this mediocre dunk.

Sardinha, number 11, felt as if she was being watched by many pairs of eyes.

Is this the fans looking at me?I'll take one too.

Dribble, accelerate, take off, go straight to the basket, I want a windmill dunk!

Boom!
When Sardinha swung his arm in the air, the ball fell directly on the backboard.

"Huh~~"

There were many boos at the scene.

Sardinha did not give up either, and continued to come again.

This time he was being honest, and it would be nice to simply have one.

"Bang!"

Finally got in.

"Oh!"

Sardinha felt the beautiful voice of the audience, and was very grateful.

In the stands, many American spectators smiled and shook their heads.

"These foreigners really have never seen the world!"

……

"CCTV, CCTV, here is the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Men's Basketball Group Match, which is being broadcast live for you. The two teams facing each other are the Chinese team and the Angola team.

Audience friends, hello everyone, I am Sun Zhengping, and the place where I am now is the Atlanta Olympic Basketball Stadium..."

Mr. Sun Zhengping, a well-known sports host, was on the front line of the Atlanta basketball stadium, bringing live commentary to the audience all over China.

Before the start of the game, Mr. Sun Zhengping also introduced the situation of the men's basketball team to the audience.

"The opponents of the Chinese team include the host team known as the "Dream Team Three", Lithuania led by the world's number one center Sabonis, the European runner-up Croatia, the South American powerhouse Argentina, and the African lion Angola. The situation of the Chinese team is not optimistic. The only place we can hope to win is Angola. We will try to win this game today"

As soon as the TV camera turned, the whole picture of the Atlanta Olympic Basketball Stadium also came into the eyes of thousands of Chinese viewers.

There are many basketball fans in the United States, and it is an absolute basketball power.Even if the two sides are not popular teams, there are still a lot of spectators present.Nearly 3 spectators poured into the stadium, and they filled the Olympic basketball stadium to every seat.

"Wow, this arena is so big."

"The Yankee's basketball gym is really willing to spend money."

"Wow, there are actually many Chinese watching the game. I'm so envious. I wish I could go."

On the court, players from both sides are warming up.

The players in Angola are all black. You don't need to touch them to know that these guys are black and hard.Watching them dunk one by one caused the audience to exclaim.

Compared with Angola's eagerness to move, the Chinese team's warm-up is step-by-step and tepid.

No flashy tricks, everyone is doing simple running passes and pass-and-cut layups.

Moreover, every player's face is full of dignity.

This is a tough fight!
Seeing this, the Chinese audience is also worried about the players of the national team.

"Those people are too good, they can dunk from the spot."

"Can the Chinese team really beat them?"

"These dark guys look so fierce."

At the scene of the Atlanta Olympic Basketball Stadium, the host introduced the players to play.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our game is about to start. First, let me introduce the players from both sides."

Angolan players, all with black charcoal heads.

No. 4, Romano;

No. 5, Moreira
Number 11, Sardinha
When introducing herself, Sardinha obviously felt a lot of eyes on her.

Um?Is it the audience?I don't seem to be that popular, do I?Could it be the previous dunk?American fans really know the goods.Well, I must behave well later!

Sardinha smiled very complacently, but didn't realize that dozens of eyes were staring at him fiercely.

After the introduction of the Angola players, the Chinese team followed.

"Everyone applauds to welcome the Chinese team."

The applause at the scene was sparse.

No. 4, Li Xiaoyong;
No. 5, Zheng Wu;

No. 6, Wu Qinglong;
No. 7, Sun Jun;

No. 8, Hu Weidong;
No. 9, Wu Qun;

No. 10, Li Nan;

No. 11, Liu Yudong;
No. 12, Wang Dazhi;
13th, Bart;

No. 14, Shan Tao;

On the 15th, Gong Xiaobin.

Every player on the field has a determined face.

In this game, they are very serious.

Tina on the sidelines is very face-saving.She clapped her hands vigorously to help cheer, especially when Li Nan appeared on stage, she was even more excited.

"Li, fighting!"

However, when the two sides started playing, Tina was not happy.

Li Nan is a substitute!Li Nan turned out to be a substitute!
Tina met Li Nan at the opening ceremony yesterday.What she didn't expect was that Li Nan turned out to be the representative of the Chinese team. He was so honored at such a young age. It seems that the Chinese basketball world really values ​​Li Nan!

Tina's arrival today is to track and record Li Nan's game.

However, what she didn't expect was that Li Nan was sitting on the bench today!
Why?why is that?
Tina really wanted to go up and find the head coach of the Chinese team for theory.

However, after seeing the game on the field, Tina gave up.

"Wow, the Chinese team is pretty good!"

The Chinese team played very proactively, not only very tough and bold, but also full of skills and highly entertaining.

No. 13 Bart slapped Angola No. 11 Sardinha for a layup!
The Chinese team strikes back!Five red lightning bolts shot towards the opponent's backcourt immediately.

No. 4 Li Xiaoyong made a long pass to Sun Jun, the fastest runner in the front right.

No. 7 Sun Jun easily passed his opponent with an acceleration from the top of the arc on the right and broke into the inside line!
Facing the defense of the opponent's big man, he actually made a fake pass!
Turning 180 degrees in the air, he seemed to have long eyes in the back of his head. Before he landed, he accurately threw the ball into the hands of No. 8 Hu Weidong in the bottom corner.

Hu Weidong did not waste this beautiful assist.

Pull up the jumper and hit the three-pointer steadily!
Gorgeous, incomparably gorgeous!

Tina couldn't believe it, "This, is this really the Chinese team?"

Many foreigners at the scene have this idea.
