Chapter 347: Dream Team suffers from acrophobia?(1/3)
After the opening ceremony, the two teams made the final preparations before the game.
At this moment, Sun Hao noticed Beckham and Raul waving at him in the audience.
Unexpectedly, these two men formed a team to Greece to watch his game!
After seeing this, Sun Hao also smiled and waved to them.
Speaking of which, after he left Europe, he broke off contact with the two brothers.
I didn't expect that they would still support me so much, so he had to thank me after the game.
The final preparations ended, and the long whistle sounded on the sidelines, and the starters of the two teams appeared one after another.
Iverson, Marbury, Marion, Stoudemire, Duncan!
Sun Hao, Hu Weidong, Li Nan, Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming!
Harris was very bold and directly let Yi Jianlian play the starting lineup!
Yi Jianlian and Duncan's jump ball.
Amid the Greek cries on the spot, Yi Jianlian burst into adrenaline and jumped high to turn the ball back to the Chinese team's half.
The Sino-US war has officially begun!
In the first attack, Sun Hao handed the ball to Yao Ming at the free throw line, and then played tactical running with Hu Weidong.
Harris is not Johnson and he will not be overconfident in a set of tactics. His tactics have changed a lot.
During the World Championships, there were obvious problems with the staffing of Team 5, but Team 6 was not.
If you play that kind of American one-on-one with the American team, even if Sun Hao and Yao Ming are Sun Hao, the Chinese team will have very little chance of winning in the end.
So when playing with Team USA, you have to use the team to play individuals.
This was proven at the World Championships.
However, the US team is not a vegetarian. As the best coach at defense, Brown... Yi Jianlian cut into the ball to catch the ball and dunk to score 2 points.
The Chinese team took the lead!
The defensive communication of the United States seemed to be a little problem, and Duncan saved to assist in defense, but Stoudemire did not recycle it.
Brown stood out his hands on the sidelines and looked at Stoudemire.
Duncan simply reached out and signaled that it was his own problem.
The Chinese team retreated to the half to defend a 2-3 joint defense.
If American fans were watching the live broadcast, they would definitely scold Harris for being a "American traitor".
Kobe and McGrady don't come to the Olympics, and the Dream Team's paper lineup doesn't seem to have much impact.
But in fact, without them, Meng Six and Meng Five had a big problem: their peripheral projection ability was very average.
In this case, it took 2-3 joint defense, which killed the Dream Team.
Iverson and Marbury fell off the ball outside, and Marbury made a three-point jump shot.
It is said that this Dream Team's most stable shooting point on the outside, but in fact, Marbury's most accurate season so far in his NBA career is only 36.7%.
His ball-handling ability can help him create shooting space, and when he feels good, he can match Ray Allen.
But most of the time, his feel is not very good.
"Dou!"
The basketball hit the frame.
Yao Ming protects the defensive rebounds.
One offense and one defense, just like in the World Championships two years ago, the Chinese team had an advantage at the beginning.
Yao Ming continued to support him in the frontcourt, and this time Hu Weidong took a three-pointer from the outside with the cover.
"Dou!"
Although the ball was not shot, the phone would be very good if it was released.
Brown's face was gloomy.
In the two rounds of the game, the American team and the fans expected to play completely differently.
Brown's team, whether it is the previous 76ers or the current Pistons, are labeled as "iron-blooded defense".
But the two defenses in the opening game were very problematic.
In the first round, Stoudemire had a problem with communicating with Duncan; in the second round, Marbury did a poor job around the pick-and-roll and failed to follow Hu Weidong.
Fans said that this is probably a fake Brown!
However, Harris knew that this had something to do with Brown, but in fact it didn't have that much.
The Dream Team has always had a problem that the lineup changes greatly and there is little tacit understanding between them.
This time, due to the Athens explosion, many of the big-name teams in the previous training camp have withdrawn one after another.
Like Marbury, Marion, and Stoudemire, they rarely go with Iverson and Duncan during training camp.
The tacit understanding between them is even worse.
In addition, Brown's training focuses on basic defensive training, which requires long-term training to achieve results.
So the defense of the US team was expected.
Of course, defense or not defense is not the most important thing for the Dream Team.
They basically win by defeating their opponent's mentality on the offensive end.
But it seems that the Milan blacksmith shop in Greece is open tonight, and Iverson's three-point attempt at the outside line also hits the box!
With Duncan and Yao Ming's competition at the basket, Yi Jianlian squeezed out Stodmeier, took a step and soared into the sky, directly grabbing defensive rebounds in the air.
The Greek fans who watched this scene couldn't help but feel amazement.
This yellow man is jumping so high.
[Ball Bond] Under the influence of the action, Yi Jianlian and Sun Hao played together, their abilities in all aspects were improved.
And after taking the rebound, Yi Jianlian also gave the ball to Sun Hao as soon as possible.
There was a wind under Sun Hao's feet, and Iverson, who accelerated to avoid the pounce, rushed directly to the frontcourt with one dragon.
The Greek fans at the scene were already looking forward to it, and the fast break layup in the defensive counterattack was Sun Hao's previous specialty.
Sun Hao rushed to the frontcourt and saw Marion chasing and defending, and he stepped into the air.
"Bang!"
A one-handed dive hit the ball hard into the basket.
The Greek fans at the scene were stunned.
This...is Sun Hao?!
If you want to talk about the past of Sun Hao's dunk slip and dunking, no one is more familiar with than European fans.
But just four years have passed, and Sun Hao can already slash?!
How did Sun Hao live in these four years?
4 to 0!
However, no matter how Sun Hao plays, the Chinese team is playing against the US team at the beginning!
This is a little incredible.
Although the Chinese team won the Dream Team in the World Championships two years ago, what is the quality of that Dream Team? What is the quality of this Dream Team?
Even though Sun Hao and Yao Ming have become stronger, they will definitely not be able to catch up with the US team's substitution strength.
But in the end, the Chinese team still had the advantage!
Iverson's emergency stop jump shot after the breakthrough was interfered by Yi Jianlian's assisted defense, but it still didn't!
Looking back, Yao Ming's inside force created Stoudemire's defensive foul.
After Yao Ming adjusted his breathing, after making two free throws at the free throw line, the Chinese team started the game and played Meng Liu team 6-0!
At this point, the fans suddenly thought of a possibility.
After losing to the Chinese team in the World Championships, wouldn’t the Dream Team suffer from “phrodisiac”?!
At the critical moment, it was Duncan.
He beat Yao Ming from a high position, and after turning around, he squeezed out Yi Jianlian and forced his score to score.
This is completely pure personal ability.
However, such scores are obviously too few for the US team.
After more than five minutes in the first quarter, the Chinese team has led the US team by 8 points 12-4!
The paper lineup is strong, and the fiba scores first, but he was hammered at the beginning.
To be continued...
