Coach Lee

Chapter 771
Olympic men's basketball team:
Group A: United States, Spain, Russia, Canada, France, Iran;
Group B: China, Argentina, Lithuania, Angola, Greece, Germany.

The strongest S+ level team should be the US team.

The head coach is old K coach.

Assistant coaches, George Karl, Mike D'Antoni, Jim Burnham.
Kobe, Pierce, Kidd, Paul, Boozer, Garnett, O'Neal, Paul, James, Anthony, Wade, Bosh.

Old K, the head coach with the highest status in the American men's basketball team.

With three former and current Nuggets coaches on the team, it's hardly obvious that someone's intentions are on the line.

Players are also strong players.Only Kobe and Iverson, the two giants of the Celtics, Shaquille O'Neal, the court commander Kidd, the betrayer Boozer, and five rising stars James came to the top five.

There are many NBA stars who want to participate in the Olympics this year. Howard, McGrady, Carter, Duncan and others are not on this team.

The team formed by the old coach K can be described as well-intentioned.

.

The team closest to the strength of the US team is the host team, China.

Strength Rating S-.

The lineup sent by the Chinese team is:
Liu Wei, Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Dazhi, Yao Liang
Yi Jianlian, Wang Shipeng, Du Feng, Sun Yue, Wu You, Wang Qi, Xu Yong.

Except for Wang Qi, the other 11 players are all NBA players.

Xu Yong, a freshman from Syracuse University, has just been selected by the Nuggets with the sixth overall pick in the draft. He is considered a prospective NBA player.

The 19-year-old national youth captain Wang Qi rejected Syracuse University's offer and chose Harvard University with a full scholarship.Harvard!This is not Harbin Buddhist College, this is the real Harvard!Wang Qi is adding luster to the Chinese men's basketball team.

.

After that, the stronger ones are A-level Spain and Argentina.

Spain has Pau Gasol, Marc Gasol, Rudy Fernandez, Calderon, Rubio and other strong players.

Argentina has Ginobili, Scola, Oberto, Preggioni, Delfino and other outstanding players.

The other teams are not bad either.

BC level:

Russia's Kirilenko led the team, including Robert Holden, Penkrashov and other giants,
The Canadian team has Nash, Dalembert, Joel Anthony and other NBA players
The French team has NBA players such as Parker, Diaw, and Pietrus.

Lithuania has NBA players such as Kleiza, Macyanskas and Sangueira;

The German team has Nowitzki, Kaman and others;
The Greek team has Spanoulis, Papalokas, Chakalidis.

The weakest are D-level Iran and Angola.

Iran has two big men, Haddadi and "Little Yao Liang" Jabel, two insiders with a height of nearly 220. They are considered top strength in Asia, but they are not worth watching in the Olympics.

Angola has Miguel Lutonda and other players. Although they are the first brothers in Africa, their strength is still not enough on the world stage.

.

On August 8, the first competition day of the Olympic Games was the competition of Group A.

The opening game, the US team vs Spain.

112-82
With 30 points, the US team beat Spain violently, and the latter had no resistance at all.

As soon as the first quarter came up, O'Neal directly beat Paul Gasol inside.

On the court, Gasol was knocked into the air by O'Neal and even fell to the ground.

The inside line composed of the Gasol brothers was vulnerable, which also caused the entire line to collapse.

.

Another two games.

Russia 87-85 Canada

France 100-65 Iran
.

The next day, Group B fought.

Lithuania 120-72 Angola

Greece 100-86 Germany
The first game of the Chinese team, the match against Argentina, the strongest opponent in the group, was scheduled at 22:[-] in the evening.

.

That night, Wukesong Basketball Hall was full of seats, and countless five-star red flags were flying high in the arena.

"Point guard, Liu Wei!"

"Small forward, Zhu Fangyu!"

"Power forward, Wang Dazhi!"

"Center, Yao Liang!"

"Oh!!!"

When introducing the players of the Chinese team, unprecedented enthusiasm broke out on the scene.
"The last is the shooting guard, our men's basketball captain, Li Nan!"

"Ooooooooo!!!"

When Li Nan was the last to appear on the stage, the familiar voice sounded again.

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

.

The 12 members of the Chinese men's basketball team formed a circle on the court, and Li Nan shouted loudly from the innermost part.

"Brothers, don't have too much burden in front of the old people in your hometown. Be handsome when you should, score when you should score, block shots when you should block, don't save face for your opponent, and don't think about it. Disgraceful mistakes or something. Let go of your hands and feet, if you make a mistake, brother will bear it for you!"

Everyone roared in unison: "Roar!"

.

Beep beep beep!
The game is about to start, and the Chinese men's basketball team will start with five players.

Liu Wei, Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Dazhi, Yao Liang!

Argentina starting:

Ginobili, Delfino, Nocioni, Scola, Oberto
beep!
A whistle sounded, and the game started amidst the cheers of the audience.

Yao Liang dialed the ball back from 208's Oberto's head.

"yeah!"

Just a possession of the ball and our fans are excited.

The ball was handed over to Liu Wei.

At this time, Li Nan found that all the fans in the stands were standing and watching the game.

Without thinking, Li Nan knew why.

This is waiting for the team to score the first goal before taking a seat.

Li Nan smiled lightly, with such fans, what more can I ask for?Only reward it with a goal!
"Liu Wei, give me the ball."

Before Liu Wei crossed the halfway line, he gave the ball to Li Nan who asked for the ball.

"Wow!"

As soon as Li Nan took the ball, the fans at the scene were also very excited.

A moment later, Li Nan reached the Argentine half and pulled up a jumper two steps away from the three-point line.

Ginobili, who was defending Li Nan, threw himself hard.He couldn't do anything, he could only watch Li Nan diffract his shots in front of him.

Whoosh!
The basketball went straight into the net.

"yeah!!!"

The arena suddenly boiled.

"Li Nan, Li Nan, Li Nan!"

Li Nan saw that in the stands, many people had already sat down, but there were still many people standing and waving flags and shouting.

"Li Nan, come one more!"

They also want to see Li Nan score.

Li Nan smiled softly, "What a lovely fan."

On the field, Argentina just sent the ball to Delfino.

On the other side, Liu Wei went directly to lead the defense.

Delfino directly "knocked" the ball to Ginobili, who was advancing at the same time.

However, at this moment, Li Nan, who was still running towards the backcourt just now, suddenly turned around.

boom!
Steal the ball!
Li Nan directly intercepted the steal from the Argentine team.

The ball was intercepted in the backcourt, and this mistake was fatal.

Ginobili stuck to Li Nan and prevented Li Nan from scoring easily. Even after entering the basket, Ginobili put his hands on his hands and wanted to hug Li Nan down.

However, it backfired.

Ginobili did hug Li Nan, which was indeed a foul, but he failed to prevent Li Nan from scoring.

Li Nan had Manu Ginobili on his body, but it was a big lever, and he threw the ball onto the backboard.

The basketball is fast and directly touches the top right corner of the backboard.

This position is too biased, and everyone thinks that the goal cannot be scored.

However, the basketball changed its direction all of a sudden when it touched the backboard so lightly, and it changed its direction irregularly and drastically.Obviously, the ball just now had a strong spin.

Swish!
The basketball goes into the hoop.

Beep!The whistle sounded, it was 2+1.
"yeah!"

"nice shot!"

The scene was jubilant again.

Li Nan stood on the free throw line.

Someone took the lead in shouting.

"MVP, MVP, MVP!"

Dribble the ball twice, grab the ball, bend your knees slightly, raise your hands, move your body together, and flick your fingers.

The ball flew out.

Li Nan didn't even look at it, he turned around and walked back with his hands raised high.

After a while,
Whoosh!
"Wow!!!"

The audience exclaimed.

Click, click, click!

The media reporters on the sidelines frantically pressed the shutter of their cameras at Li Nan.

On the court, Wang Dazhi was sour.

"Xiao Li, didn't you tell us to let go of the fight? Why are you the only one fighting?"

However, Li Nan said in a serious manner: "Brother, this is for you guys!"

Wang Dazhi didn't believe it. "Cut~"

Although there were still many people in the stands who were unwilling to sit down, Li Nan did not continue.

Afterwards, Li Nan really started to increase his organization and create more opportunities for his teammates.

Because of Li Nan's hot touch at the beginning, the Argentine team also had to double-team defense against Li Nan.

The whole world knows that defending Li Nan must double-team.Moreover, everyone knows that double-teaming does not work for Li Nan, but it is absolutely impossible not to double-team!

The other players of the Chinese team got more chances.

It's just that they didn't feel so good at the beginning.

Or in a home game, the audience was too enthusiastic, which made the boys not let go.

The Chinese team started a bit unstable!Argentina played well during this time!

However, Li Nan is not in a hurry!He used his own restraining power to patiently play the ball for his teammates.

When Argentina was about to overtake the score, Li Nan would always stand up and score several goals in a row to stabilize the situation.

Slowly, Yao Liang and Zhu Fangyu cast away.

Slowly, Liu Wei and Wang Dazhi also gained popularity.

At halftime,
52-46,

The Chinese team leads by 6 points.

The two sides seem to be evenly matched.

However, in the second half, the situation changed suddenly.

In the second half, as soon as it came up, Li Nan suddenly increased his shots. Within 10 minutes, he scored 20 points and 8 assists in a row!

The Chinese team scored 40-15 in a single quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, the score became 92-61.
31 points!
The fourth quarter turned directly into garbage time.

In the fourth quarter, the Chinese team successively sent young people Wu You, Wang Qi, Xu Yong, Sun Yue, and Yi Jianlian.

Wu You is 183 in height, a dual guard,

Wang Qi is 196 in height, a combo guard,

Sun Yue is 206 tall, shooting guard and small forward
Xu Yong 206, playing small forward/power forward,
Yi Jianlian is 213, playing power forward/center.

Training in the Olympic Games is as strong as the U.S. team, and there is no need for it. Argentina and Spain are afraid of losing; Iran and Angola, they are indeed training, but they are being trained; South Korea, Japan, Australia, uh, no Sorry, they didn't enter the Olympics; only the Chinese team!
.

116-99
In the end, the Chinese team defeated the American powerhouse Argentina by 17 points and made a good start to the group stage.
