Chapter 340 "Home" Battle

The Chinese team, which defeated Australia, qualified as third in Group B.They managed to make it to the knockout stage and avoided the mighty US team, but their upcoming opponent Argentina is also not to be underestimated.

Argentina won the Olympic champion in Athens in 2004. It was also the first time since the Olympic champion allowed NBA players to participate in the competition. The champion regained his hands, but it has to be said that Argentina, which successfully pulled out a tooth from the tiger, is strong.

Argentina's golden generation has not completely aged, Manu Ginobili, Andres Nocioni, Luis Scola, this triangle offensive core is really good, their basketball is like their football Full of artistic imagination, technology is something they have always insisted on. More importantly, they are not only good in personal ability, they are also representatives of team basketball.

In terms of personal ability, even if other teams in the world form a team, it is almost a luxury to compete with the star-studded US team. However, why did the US team not receive a world championship from 02 to 06? The big reason is that they don't play as a team. Everyone is fighting on their own. In 08, they played more cooperatively and became invincible. To put it bluntly, basketball is the relationship between individual ability and teamwork. Just confrontation.

As for the confrontation between China and Argentina, personal ability?Anson fully demonstrated that he is stronger than Manu Ginobili when the Clippers played against the Spurs this year. Jordan is just a nickname in 20 minutes. Since he entered the league until now, he has more In his more than ten years of professional career, he has never carried the entire team like Anson did last season.

In the first round of the game, An Sheng told everyone face to face that he would be a stronger player.

Manu Ginobili used his best snake-shaped breakthrough at the very beginning. This move is very clever. If An Sheng saw this move for the first time, he might be deflated directly. , However, including this year's Western Conference Finals, Anson played 8 games with the Spurs this season. He is already familiar with Manu Ginobili's move and can't be more familiar with it.

When Manu Ginobili took the second step with his anti-human European step, An Sheng followed his position easily, without any relaxation, and let him pass in the first round of the game. The audience felt that this ticket was absolutely not wasted.A block nailed directly to the backboard immediately caused a climax of commentary.

"An, the best defensive player in the world, his defense is like a wall of iron and iron, and he doesn't give Manu any chance to break through dexterously."

"Hey, friend, Ann told us with a hearty defensive performance in the last game that defense can also stand under the spotlight. I didn't expect Argentina to take no precautions. They are still so arrogant now. One could be down in the quarter-finals."

This time the commentary comes from the BBC. The relationship between the UK and Argentina has never been very good. They have a very bad relationship because of the "Falland Islands Dispute" back then. Argentina's football is better than their basketball. Football is also a national sport in the UK.

What's interesting is that every football match between the two countries is full of great gunpowder, which is comparable to a very ugly martial arts competition.

Of course, even if British basketball exists in the desert, as long as there is Argentina, the British will naturally not want to make Argentina a little bit more comfortable, so not only the fans at the scene, but even the British commentary, in terms of tone China is not very optimistic about Argentina, although in terms of strength comparison, Argentina is the stronger team.

The Chinese team has a feeling of being flattered, after all, they just beat the UK once in a game not long ago, thus preventing them from being outside the quarterfinals, but now, they are in this place, with the same ball The stadium enjoyed the treatment at home, which made them a little inexplicably excited. They obviously underestimated Britain's anger towards Argentina a little bit.

With the effect of the home court and An Sheng's defensive explosion at the beginning, the Chinese team unexpectedly achieved very good results at the beginning.

At 16:7, the Chinese team led the 2004 Olympic champion by nearly double digits in the first quarter. An Sheng scored 10 points by himself, completely blowing away Andres Nocioni, while Argentina's inside frame protection has always been their biggest headache.

None of their tallest players is taller than 208cm. As for Luis Scola's ability to protect the frame, it really depends on acting skills.

An Sheng's breakthrough is almost unstoppable as long as there are no other double-teams in the first step of passing Andres Nocioni, and An Sheng breaks through directly and then starts up again.

"I found that we really have a chance to enter the semi-finals. An Sheng is too strong. For the first time in the history of our team, there is such a strong outside line. No matter who we face, we can play an advantage. It’s unimaginable from the outside.”

"I'm looking forward to it. Suddenly, if Yao Ming's injury is healed, there will be one or two good guards. They don't need to be strong in singles. They can shoot three-pointers and defend. For us now, this I’m already satisfied, so I think we may hit the championship with such a team.”

However, someone immediately interrupted this guy's yy, "Dude, An Sheng and Dayao's styles obviously don't match, haven't you noticed? An Sheng needs to play faster, he can't slow down like Dayao, once he does, His ability has been greatly suppressed."

However, someone immediately raised a different opinion: "Can't An Sheng play positional warfare? I'm afraid you are thinking a little too much about this. If so, I suggest you go and watch this year's Western Conference Finals. How An Sheng fought in positional warfare Score 30 points a game and beat the Spurs, and you'll understand the threat of Anson's positional battle."

Chinese fans have always been like this. Once they take the lead, they tend to be proud. For example, now, they only led by 9 points in the first quarter, and other things were discussed on the live broadcast forum.
