If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 238 Yi Jian is confidence
Spain's outside attack was a bit strong at the beginning, and the Chinese team quickly took the lead.

"How could this be?" Marc Gasol was shocked.

He had fought against Yi Jian before, and although he didn't have many direct confrontations, he still had some experience.

Before the game, he studied Yi Jian carefully and communicated with his brother Pau Gasol. He believed that with his defense, Yi Jian could still be restricted to a certain extent.

Spain did not intend to completely restrict Yi Jian. They only need to lower Yi Jian's threat to a level, and they can win the game by relying on the outside advantage.

In the previous Olympics, they were actually very dissatisfied with losing to the Chinese team.

At that time, the Chinese team had home court advantage, and they didn't understand Yi Jian's strength.

The current Chinese team does not have Yao Ming, and it is logical that they are not as strong as they were then, but they underestimated Yi Jian.

Little Gasol tried his best to realize that it is not easy to help defend Yi Jian.

If it is the main defense, Gasol can't follow the outside line.

Several other insiders in Spain have tried. They are all ruthless characters, but they can only get fouls on Yi Jian.

In fact, Spain's thinking is still somewhat biased. After thinking about it, they didn't even think of flanking.

The main reason is that they think they have strength, and they don't think about it directly.

Spanish coach Scariolo didn't expect it, because he subconsciously didn't pay enough attention to it, which directly led to the loss of this game.

In the second quarter, when Yi Jian found that Spain's defense hadn't changed much, he tried his best to score points.

It was bad luck to meet the host and the US team before, which made the team unable to go further, but if possible, they hope that the higher the world championship ranking, the better.

Yi Jian likes to win, he will win every game, and he will not feel that it is meaningless just because it is a qualifying match.

"Yi Jian scored again, and his mid-range can't be defended at all."

"2+1, beautiful! Yi Jian's game is a bit like facing the US team. He is very aggressive. He scored 20+ in the first half. However, Spain does not have a Durant."

"Spain took a lot of shots from outside, but I feel that the players are not in high spirits, and there is a problem with their shooting percentage."

"Spain has nothing to do with Yi Jian. Their substitute insider Vazquez has committed three offenses."

"Actually, the Chinese team's offense in the first half was not very good. It was almost supported by Yi Jian alone, but Spain's shooting was really poor. It is hard to imagine that this is the strongest Spain in Europe."

It can be said that Spain was a bit confused in the first half, and they didn't even think about how to adjust.

At halftime, they were down by double digits.

If the game continued, Spain might collapse, and the break saved them.

However, leading in the first half also gave the Chinese team a lot of confidence.

Now it depends on their physical strength, whether they can sustain the second half.

"Whether we win or lose, our journey to the World Championships is over after this game."

"Go all out and leave no regrets!" Yi Jian and his teammates clapped hands.

"Fight hard, I fucked Spain once before, and now I can fuck them a second time."

"Brother Yi is in such a good state and helped us gain the lead. Even if I was tired enough to be on the court in the second half, I couldn't let them attack easily."

"Brother Yi, just say how to fight, we all listen to you..."

How to fight is actually still a cliché.

In order for Spain to turn the game over in the second half, the outside line must be shot.

The Chinese team must strictly guard the inside line, and Yi Jian must sit in the penalty area, otherwise Spain will have something to do inside.

In the third quarter, the Chinese team rushed again, and the lead continued to expand, but then there were problems.

Spain began to shrink the defense to the extreme, restricting Yi Jian.

However, the Chinese team's outside line did not seize the opportunity, and there were some problems on both offensive and defensive ends.

The point is that Spain's offense has finally picked up.

They started to play star tactics completely, but they played better than in the first half.

The inside line Xiaojia seized the opportunity to attack roughly, and the outside line Fernandez personally praised him, and several times he succeeded outside the three-point line.

The score gap between the two teams quickly narrowed to single digits.

The players of the Chinese team are definitely not lacking in hard work, they really can't keep up with their physical strength.

I couldn't feel the excitement when I was leading in the first half, and there was a problem when my body cooled down a little during the halftime break.

After rushing up for a while in the second half, their pace began to slow down.

The fatigue accumulated in the previous games also broke out.

The Spanish players must also be fatigued, but their physical fitness is much better than that of the national team.

It is mainly the domestic league, which has already assumed the roles of players, which makes them unable to fight continuously with high intensity.

This is definitely not a race issue, but a growth environment issue.

European players are very used to high confrontation, because their leagues are also doing well.

"Hold on, everyone can rest assured that I'm here." Yi Jian kept encouraging his teammates.

They have a very good advantage in front, and Yi Jian will be very upset if Spain suddenly overturns them.

He fought more aggressively in the interior, rushing to grab rebounds, and he was completely willing to go all out.

Spain also paid a relatively high price in order to suppress Yi Jian.

Inside fouls are just one of them, and they consume a lot.

In fact, Spain's outside touch has not recovered, but Fernandez's personal feeling is coming.

For example, Garbajosa, on the offensive end, basically shot three-pointers in order to pull Yi Jian out, but basically never made them.

Switching to an inside main defense with no three points means completely giving up offense.

If Xiao Jia encounters Yi Jian's defense, he won't force it, and Spain is holding his breath.

If the Chinese team can't stand it anymore, Spain can definitely vent its anger.

But if the Chinese team gritted their teeth and persisted, Spain might suffocate to death when they saw hope.

When the scores of the two teams were the closest, Spain caught up with only 1 point.

However, when Yi Jian played a full game in the second half, he suddenly forcibly hit two three-pointers at the beginning of the last quarter. The Chinese team's lead was instantly saved, while Spain was a little discouraged.

They also pay attention to Yi Jian on the outside, but these two goals are a bit unsolvable.

"It scared me to death. In the third quarter, the national team felt like they were going to make an old mistake. They were directly overthrown by someone, and then collapsed. Fortunately, there is Yi Jian."

"Haha, I've never been worried, and it's not Yi Jian's old fans who are worried."

"Indeed, we must always trust Yi Jian."

"When Yi Jian continued to play in the fourth quarter without rest, I knew Spain was gone."

"That is, Yi Jian didn't try his best for many teams before, because it was unnecessary. Spain and the US team got this vanity, and they should be happy."

"Get rid of Spain! Come on, Chinese team!"
