Basketball Myth: Super Guard

In the last minute of the first quarter, the Chinese team only scored one goal, while the US team scored a two-pointer and a three-pointer, and scored five points. The difference was reduced to only one point.

Into the second quarter, the Chinese team sent a rotation here.

In the first quarter, Qin Hao played a full quarter, and Yao Ming only rested for more than a minute. They had to rest. However, Coach Deng Huade still sent Yi Jianlian.

However, on the court, Zhang Zhaoxu, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Wei, this lineup is still inferior to the U.S. team of Chandler, Davis, Durant, Iguodala and Delong. Neither position has an advantage, both on the offensive end and on the defensive end, they are pressed and played.

"Snapped!"

"beep!"

The thugs, the whistle blows.

The referee pointed at Davis, gave him a foul, and signaled Yi Jianlian to go to the free throw line.

Although Yi Jianlian played well, the Chinese team's offense was still stagnant. Others were either blocked or hard to shoot, and they didn't play any tactics, relying only on the players' personal abilities. However, compared with the US team's personal ability, this is obviously not taking advantage.

"boom!"

Yi Jianlian strikes the first penalty.

Qin Hao and Yao Ming stood up at the same time: "Coach, let me go."

Only three minutes into the second quarter, the U.S. team has already overtaken the score and led by 5 points. With the current situation on the field, the point difference will definitely continue to expand.

Obviously, the team needs Qin Hao and Yao Ming.

"Okay." Coach Deng Huade called a timeout and replaced Zhang Zhaoxu and Liu Wei with Qin Hao and Yao Ming.

When Qin Hao and Yao Ming returned to the court, the situation improved. First of all, the attack became smoother. This is the difference between Qin Hao and Qin Hao. His ability to contain defense, breakthrough ability, and organizational ability are better than Liu's. Wei is much better. Only when Qin Hao is on the court can the ball run well and play the proper tactical coordination.

At the same time, Yao Ming still has an advantage in the interior. The protection of rebounding, the containment of defense, and the lethality on the offensive end are all that others do not have.

For a time, the Chinese team stabilized the situation.

"Pick-and-roll."

Qin Hao asked for a pick-and-roll, broke through to score the ball, and passed the ball back to Yao Ming. After Yao Ming caught the ball, he made a three-point shot, without any extra movement, and was decisive.

Swish!

With a bang, the ball went in.

The audience cheered again and again, and the Chinese fans were applauding.

However, Yao Ming didn't have a smile on his face, his expression was stern, the gap in the lineup was there, especially the rotation lineup, which was completely incomparable with the opponent. He knew very well that he had to fight, and he had to play the best performance, even superlative. Only by playing at a level can it be possible to defeat the mighty American team.

Quietly, more than half of the second quarter, the score between the two sides was always anxious.

The old coach K sent Howard again and put out the lineup of Howard, Davis, Durant, Iguodala, and Rose.

"Ball." Yao Ming asked for the ball in the low post, and the others pulled away and singled Howard for him.

Several US team players looked at each other, do you want to go up to help?

In the end, they still didn't go up, let Howard defend alone, Howard was close to Yao Ming, Yao Ming singled with his back, the two were physically confronted, and Howard still had the upper hand. However, Yao Ming didn't plan to confront him head-on. After two hits and a jumper, Howard flew forward, but it didn't help.

Swish!

Still in.

"Go in again."

"Howard can't guard Yao Ming."

"What's so strange about that? He couldn't have been able to guard it before."

People are somewhat disappointed in Howard, who is not Yao Ming's opponent in the NBA, and is still the same in the international arena.

But when he turned around, Rose was a breakthrough. After reaching the inside line, he pulled the bar and made a layup...

In a few minutes, the two sides came and went. The Chinese team couldn't defend against the attack of the US team, and the US team couldn't defend against Yao Ming and Qin Hao.

Of course, there are still differences. The Chinese team is indeed unable to guard against it. The US team deliberately staggered the two points of Qin Hao and Yao Ming, and specially seized the other three points of the Chinese team. When the gap between individual abilities is too large, the single Defense is unstoppable. Fortunately, the Chinese team is not completely single defense, teammates will quickly go to help defense.

On the other hand, the US team is mostly single defense, arrogance seems to be carved into the bones, and it has to rely on single defense to play with you, there is no need for double teams.

Unknowingly, the second quarter was coming to an end. The U.S. team was leading by one point. Qin Hao took the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. At this time, Ross was replaced, and Paul was facing him. Qin Hao made a gesture, and the others pulled. Kai, he looked up at the time, and then suddenly changed direction to accelerate, Paul moved quickly, and took the lead.

At this moment, Qin Hao suddenly jumped up and shot against Paul. It was a pull-up jump shot. The basketball flew out of Qin Hao's fingertips, and finally slammed through the net.

At the end of the second quarter, the Chinese team led by 1 point.

"I didn't expect that at halftime, we were behind."

"Qin and Yao played very well today, especially Yao, he completely suppressed Howard in the interior, and he also had three-pointers that Howard didn't have. It was only in the first half, and Yao's three-pointers were already 2 of 3 shots. In the middle, the hit rate is amazing..."

Some American fans frowned, not too pleased with Team USA's performance.

Of course, this is also because the Chinese team played well enough today, especially Yao Ming.

From the group stage to the semi-finals, Qin Hao's performance was better than Yao Ming's in almost every game, scoring more points than Yao Ming, but today's game, at this time, Yao Ming's performance is in Above Qin Hao. Yao Ming had already scored 16 points and 7 rebounds in the half.

But after entering the second half, the U.S. team further strengthened its defense against Yao Ming, and sent the inside lineup of Chandler and Davis to let Davis go to match Yao Ming.

Davis is accustomed to the position of power forward, but he can also play as a cameo center. He has excellent physical talent, mobility, height and arm length, and is actually more suitable for defending Yao Ming than Howard.

For a time, Yao Ming's offensive efficiency began to decline.

Coach Deng Huade simply replaced Yao Ming, let him rest, and gradually replaced the rotation.

However, before the rotation was finished, the Chinese team immediately fell into a disadvantage. The American team suddenly strengthened its defense and increased the intensity of confrontation. Everyone on the Chinese team just kept hitting the iron.

Sometimes the opportunity is good and the position is completely vacant, but because of the fast speed and excellent physical talent of the US team, the Chinese team players are very worried that they will be blocked, and they are hesitant to shoot, and the hit rate has dropped seriously.

"Hey, the rotation is a loophole after all." Li Nan shook his head helplessly, looked at the time, and said to coach Huade Deng: "Coach, seven minutes have passed since the third quarter, do you want to replace Qin Hao to rest?"

Coach Deng Huade didn't answer immediately, but called for a timeout. When the players came down, he asked, "Qin, how is your physical fitness? Do you need to come down and rest."

Qin Hao shook his head: "I'm fine."

Coach Deng Huade took a deep breath: "Okay, then you continue to play. From now on, you can shoot without limit. We need you to stand up and score, understand?"
