Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"Confrontation, confrontation, how many times have I said it, you should take the initiative to find a confrontation. Sun Yue, what are you doing? Did you make a layup like this? What are you hiding?"

"When there is still defense, be active, even if you make mistakes, it doesn't matter, you must be active, don't be afraid, and show our momentum."

"And you, Zhang Zhaoxu, you are a center, why don't you dunk when you have the ball in the open space?"

The Chinese men's basketball team is training.

At this time, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and everyone from the other teams had already left, but the Chinese men's basketball team remained in the training venue.

It's not that the Chinese team's training time is particularly long, but the coaching staff deliberately chose this time to conduct some confrontation training. At other times, it can only be free training.

After the previous game, there were a lot of problems.

It's useless to just hold a meeting and the coach's mouth to say a few words. Only by putting it in the confrontation training to correct it can it play some role - it only plays a "some role", because freezing three feet is not a day. Cold, many things can not be changed in an instant.

However, when the gun is sharpened, even if it is not bright, even if it only has a little effect, it is better than nothing.

"Okay, here we go today."

Coach Deng Huade signaled to Li Nan, who clapped his hands and greeted the players to stop.

A group of players held their knees, gasping for breath.

The intensity of the confrontation training just now was not low, and the coach had been shouting by the side with a stern tone, which devastated their bodies and minds.

"Okay, let's go back to rest, there will be a game tomorrow." Li Nan waved his hand and came to Coach Deng Huade's side. The two looked at each other and nodded.

Tomorrow is the second game of the group stage. The reason why we are still practicing like this at this time is actually the intention of the coaching staff, which is to "destroy" the players and make strict demands to let them know the seriousness of the problem and make them pay attention to it. , will seriously change.

Of course, not all players need improvement.

Qin Hao, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Liu Wei, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng and these players have nothing to improve. Qin Hao and Yao Ming have done well enough and do not need to change. Others are old players, and some habits have already been carved into their bones. Couldn't change it long ago.

Others, even Yi Jianlian, were scolded.

The main reason is that Yi Jianlian, as an inside player, has always been reluctant to attack in the low post. In fact, he is not good at low post singles, but he is always very resistant and always likes to float beyond the three-point line.

Others may not dare to fight in the low position due to their physical fitness, but Yi Jianlian's physical fitness is definitely the best in the national team except Qin Hao.

After a day's training, the players received a lot of scolding, and they left the arena silently and returned to the campus dormitory.

Qin Hao and Yao Ming walked last.

"These problems are not a day or two." Yao Ming shook his head, a little helpless, "It can't be changed all at once."

Some bad game habits, some inattentive details, poor basic skills, soft style of play, game concept, etc...

These are formed over many years and are also cultivated in the environment. The players are all playing in the CBA and are used to the CBA style of play and the rhythm of the CBA. When it comes to this kind of international competition, against European and American teams, there will naturally be various problems. .

Qin Hao also understands this, and even understands it even more deeply, because he was also a CBA player in his last life and played in the CBA for a long time. At that time, he never played in the NBA, and his physical fitness and skills are far worse than they are now.

He smiled slightly and comforted: "Brother Ming, don't worry about it, it will be useful anyway, at least for young players like Guo Ailun and Zhou Peng, there is still time."

Yao Ming nodded, but his heart was secretly worried, is it time? There will be in the future, but I'm really nervous now. Tomorrow is the second game of the group stage, against the British team. It shouldn't be a big problem, but the next three opponents are Spain, Brazil, and Russia, each of which is not easy to deal with.

......

The next day, on July 31, the Chinese men's basketball team ushered in the second game of the group stage against the host British team.

The British team was selected for the Olympic Games as the host. According to the rules of the Olympic basketball competition, the host can directly obtain the right to participate.

The core player of this British team is Bulls player Rolle Deng. Rolle Deng has played very well this past season, averaging 15.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game. All-star team, becoming the first British player to be named to the NBA All-Star team.

Originally, the British team also had an NBA player, Ben Gordon of the Pistons, but Ben Gordon did not report to the British men's basketball team for some reasons and missed the Olympics.

Therefore, this British team has only one NBA player, Roel Deng. Most of the other players play in the European League, and there is no one who stands out.

If the Chinese men's basketball team didn't have Qin Hao and Yao Ming, perhaps the British team could have played against the Chinese team under the leadership of Rolle Deng, but now, the strength gap between the two sides is obvious.

The Chinese team had the upper hand from the very beginning of the game, and led by Qin Hao and Yao Ming, they led their opponents by 11 points at halftime.

After entering the second half, the point difference further widened.

Because he has always had the upper hand, coach Huade Deng has made frequent substitutions. The purpose is to train troops and train the players. It can also be regarded as training troops in battle to prepare for the following games.

At the same time, Qin Hao is also honing his mid-range shots, reducing three-pointers and breakthroughs, and using mid-range shots to end offenses.

Until the end of the third quarter, the Chinese team was still leading by double digits.

In the last quarter, the British team launched a counterattack, but Qin Hao was quickly replaced to help the Chinese team stabilize the situation.

"drop......"

When the whole game ended, the score was 86:75. The Chinese team defeated the British team by 11 points and won the second victory in the group stage.

Qin Hao scored 20 points, plus 7 rebounds, 8 assists, Yao Ming 16 points, 11 rebounds, Yi Jianlian 13 points, Sun Yue 7 points...

It is worth mentioning that Zhou Peng played well, even if he played against Rolle Deng, he was not afraid at all. He was not as nervous as other young players. He made two three-pointers, and one 2+1. He made 3 of 7 shots and scored 9 points, plus 4 rebounds and 2 assists, which became one of the highlights of the Chinese team in this game.

On the British side, Rolle Deng, as the core of the team, scored 19 points, plus 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

After this game, the Chinese men's basketball team won two consecutive victories in the group stage and currently ranks first in Group B.
