Chapter 476 Leading by 20 points at halftime

Halfway through the second quarter. The score on the field was that the Chinese team led the Greek team 40 to 26.

The Chinese team scored 40 points before halftime, and the halftime score may exceed 50 points. This shows that in the first half of this game, the Chinese team's offensive efficiency is very high, and the touch is also very good.

Before that, the Chinese team scored 46 points in the half when they played against Spain, and scored 44 points in the half when they played against Angola. In both games, the Chinese team played a wonderful combination of inside and outside in the first half. In the first half of the match between the Chinese team and the US team, the US team basically relied on their eyes to defend, so the statistics are not very convincing; In the game, facing the strong defense of the German team, the Chinese team only scored 27 points in the first half, not even 30 points.

If the Chinese team can score 50 points in the first half, it will be equivalent to breaking the half-time scoring record in this Olympic Games.

In NBA games, 50 points in half time is not difficult to achieve, but a game in NBA is 12 minutes, and each game in international games is only 10 minutes, half time is equal to 4 minutes less than NBA. Minutes is equivalent to the fact that the two sides lost about six offenses each, so they can score 50 points in the half, which is considered to be a very good offensive efficiency.

At present, the Greek team's score of 26 points is a bit low. Before the Greek team faced the Spanish team, they only scored 29 points in the half, which was even worse than now; points, which is about the same as now. In those two games, the two point guards of the Greek team, Papalukas and Diamantidis, were restricted by their opponents, which is also a major reason for the low score of the Greek team.

Calderon and Navarro of the Spanish team have great experience in defending the Greek team, coupled with the overall defensive system of the Spanish team, it is difficult for the Greek team to score; while the US team relies solely on individual abilities, Kidd, Paul and Deron is both a superstar in the NBA, and they are both good at defense. With Papa Lucas and Diamantidis alone, it is obviously not cheap.

The situation facing the Greek team today is somewhat similar to when playing the US men's basketball team. The Chinese team is definitely not as good as the Spanish team in terms of overall defensive system, but Zhang Guan's personal ability is worse than the American superstar trio. Zhang Guan is younger than Kidd, stronger than Paul, and stronger than Deron. Faster and more flexible, and put more pressure on Papa Lucas and Diamantidis.

After Dayao scored seven points on the field, he was replaced again, but the center of the Greek team, Gili Daniakis, was not relieved, because the substitute who came on the field generally has the same stature, weight and technical characteristics. Similar to him, Gilidaniyakis still has no advantage.

Coach Yannakis once again chose to change his lineup. He replaced Giridanakis and replaced Sotsenides.

Sotsenides was born in Cameroon. He is the only black player in the Greek men's basketball team. With a height of 2.08 meters, he has a weight of 170 kilograms, which is heavier than O'Neal. He was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers at the 34th place in the second round in 2003, but because of his weight, he has been criticized by coaches and NBA scouts. . Although this kind of large-tonnage player has certain benefits in the interior attack, it seriously affects his athletic ability.

Coach Yannakis obviously wanted to strengthen the inside offense, especially the offense at the basket, by replacing Sotsenides. And roughly facing such a big fat man, he was not at a loss, but showed extremely experienced experience.

In the national team, there is also a center with a large tonnage, that is Daba, who weighed 300 catties at his peak, not much inferior to O'Neill, and he and Daba have known each other for more than ten years, and they are relatively familiar with each other , so roughly already summed up a set of methods to deal with large-tonnage centers. Yannakis's substitution did not achieve the desired effect.

...

On the sidelines, coach Jonas gradually showed joy.

So far, Zhang Guan has only directly broken through to score and made general sports passes in the offense. The tactics of breaking through and dividing the ball have not been used yet, which means that the Chinese team still has a hole card. But the Greek team has already sent the big fat man Sotsenides on the field. Obviously, the cards have been exhausted, and it is difficult for the Greek team to come up with any new tricks.

At this moment, the two of them seemed to be playing cards against the landlord. Yannakis had already played all the cards in his hand, and Yunas was still holding a bomb in his hand.

In the eighth minute of the second quarter, Papa Lucas seemed to be pinched by Zhang Guan and Li Nan who was defending during the breakthrough, and then twisted his foot. Although he got up and moved a bit afterwards, it seemed that there was no serious problem. But it surprised Yannakis. Then Yannakis replaced Papa Lucas without hesitation and replaced him with the combo Wetzkis.

The Chinese team also took advantage of this opportunity to fight back, especially before the half-time whistle sounded, Wang Shipeng hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, turning the score into 52-32. A 20-point lead at halftime.

"Wang Shipeng! Three-pointer at the buzzer! 20 points! We lead the Greek team by 20 points at halftime!" The commentator roared and shouted, and the audience stood up collectively to cheer for the players of the Chinese team.

At the end of the first half, the players of the Chinese team walked to the locker room, enjoying the warm applause and cheers from the fans along the way. Even though they had walked into the player tunnel for a long time, the sound was still continuous.

But the players of the Greek team lowered their heads one after another, and left the scene as if they were running away. It can be seen that the Greek team didn't want to stay for a minute.

In front of the TV, many Greek fans have already changed the channel, or simply turned off the TV. The 20 points behind at halftime is to make these fans find no reason to keep watching.

...

At this time, the Croatian men's basketball team, which finished the game in the morning, had already returned to the residence of the Olympic Village.

The game against Iran in the morning was not intense, so even after playing a game in the morning, the Croatian men's basketball team came to the training ground in the afternoon and started some less intense training and tactical explanations.

The Croatian team won the third place in Group A. According to the grouping rules, they will face the second place in Group B in the knockout round. At present, it seems that the second place is very likely to be the Spanish team.

At this time, Repesa, the head coach of the Croatian team, was in front of the tactical board, explaining the Spanish team's tactics and how to deal with them.

The team leader hurried over, making Repesa frown in displeasure, obviously he didn't like being interrupted.

The team leader walked up to Repesa and said, "Coach, I'm very sorry for interrupting you. Something happened. Our opponent in the knockout round may not be the Spanish team."

Repesa thought for a while, and said, "Isn't it Spain? Is it the Greek men's basketball team? That is a difficult opponent to deal with! What is going on now should be the game between the Greek team and the Chinese team. The Greek team is in the first place. The game lost to Spain by 15 points. If the Greek team can win most of the Chinese team, then they will be ranked second in Group B and become our opponents in the knockout round. Counting the time, the game should have finished the first half Right, so the Greek team must be ahead of China by a large margin now? How much did the Greek team win? 20 points? Or 30 points?"

The team leader shook his head, but Repesa showed a kind of surprise, he said casually: "Could it be 40 points? The Chinese team is playing at home, and there is a world-class insider like Dayao, so it shouldn't be too much. As for being led by 40 points at halftime by the Greek team!"

"The Greek team didn't take the lead, it was the Chinese team that took the lead!" The team leader breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The Chinese team led the Greek team by 20 points at halftime, so now it seems that the Chinese team is very likely to win, and our opponent in the knockout round may be It is the host Chinese team!"

"What? The Chinese team led the Greek team by 20 points at halftime? This is impossible!" Repesa screamed directly.

The first chapter is delivered, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass.
