I am Really an Insider

On August 18, the Chinese men’s basketball team qualified as second in the group.

This also means that Chinese basketball has successfully achieved a historic breakthrough.

Because even if the Chinese team loses the first round of the knockout rounds, it can still get sixth place with a record of 3 wins and 2 losses.

Of course, fans are not satisfied with the sixth result now. Everyone knows this team can do better.

It is not impossible to win against Croatia.

The fierce battle in the basketball arena is in full swing, and in the track and field arena, the most anticipated 110-meter hurdles is about to begin.

Liu Xiang, who is almost the most famous athlete in China, is preparing to take off in the Bird's Nest.

His competition with Cuban player Robles is the focus of this Olympics.

Of course, just like the original history, Liu Xiang's withdrawal shocked the whole of China.

For a time, various conspiracy theories appeared on the Internet. Some people said that Liu Xiang gave up the game because he was afraid of losing to Robles.

Um.

As the Internet develops, everyone is available.

Liu Xiang's withdrawal was almost the biggest news of the day. It once took away the traffic of the men's basketball team qualifying.

Of course, the change of direction also increased the popularity of the men's basketball team later on.

Because now, there is one less project that has attracted much attention from the Chinese people.

Men’s basketball is almost the most high-profile men’s sport right now!

Although the game has entered the next stage, the rest time will not increase.

There is also a game to play on a day off, so willpower is very important to fight until the end.

In addition to technical and tactical levels, whether the will is firm enough is also the key to winning.

Fortunately, after playing Spain, the Chinese team struggled in two of the three games. Yao Ming did not fight too hard even when he played Germany.

Therefore, in the knockout stage, the Chinese team still has the strength to fight.

FIBA's schedule is like this, because the competition time is relatively short, unlike the NBA, which has a whole year for you to spend.

I don’t know if Bodog has any brains here. In his previous life, Wayne complained that China’s World Cup schedule was unreasonable and even more tiring than the NBA.

This special FIBA ​​competition is arranged in this way no matter which country it is held in, no matter what event it is, it has nothing to do with China.

So this guy just deserves a beating, and it was really not unfair for Wayne to lock him up a few years ago.

It's a pity that Australia didn't do well in this Olympics and only got fourth place in one group.

As long as the Kangaroo Legion's score is one higher, Wayne can beat him.

Not the basketball kind of beating, but the real kind of beating.

Last time Zhu Ba tried to beat Rubio but failed, and he is still holding back his energy until now.

If you encounter Australia, you will be beaten by me.

Bodog: You know why I only dared to finish fourth.

Well, I still can’t beat him openly, education should be the priority.

Being banned would be bad.

The war was about to begin, and on the morning of the 19th, Yunus also organized a tactical meeting for everyone to analyze the Croatian team’s game video.

Croatia and Lithuania are very similar. Many of the players in their team cannot be named by Wayne, but the combat effectiveness of this team is very terrifying.

Because this is a team-driven team.

Their players' individual abilities may not be top-notch, but everyone's abilities are very balanced.

Whether he is a guard or a center, he has a hand in shooting and passing.

Croatia's style is tough defense coupled with ancient European positional offense.

Namely, center placement and overall pick-and-roll.

Use constant running and conduction to create gaps, and then find opportunities to kill the game with precise shooting!

However, their tough defense may not be of much use against the Chinese team.

Because players of the level of Wayne and Yao Ming, if they don't use double teams, no one can guard them.

You can attack and everyone can shoot and pass, but you can't defend at the top level in the NBA, right?

Especially for insiders, if there is a difference in level, they will be abused.

There is still a possibility that the defender has a bad touch, but running inside will cause a foul, and free throws can also kill people.

Of course, Croatia can double team. But if there is a double-team, then who will you double-team, Wayne or Yao Ming?

Yao Ming is not alone in the Chinese team now. You can win by exhausting him to death.

Now there is an NBA MVP.

It’s impossible to directly use four people to defend two people from the Chinese team, right?

Therefore, Yunus's strategy tomorrow is to attack inside with unlimited defensive changes.

In any case, the Croatians cannot be given an easy shot.

Defensively, Croatia cannot guard Yao Ming and Wayne.

The point is that the Chinese team also has to defend Croatia.

Lao You attaches great importance to tomorrow's game.

Because this is not just a matter of promotion, it is also a test for the Chinese team.

If they really advance and meet Lithuania, Lithuania will be a fully upgraded version of Croatia.

More accurate, harder and more powerful.

If we can succeed in conquering Croatia, then we have hope in conquering Lithuania!

This kind of team without focus is not easy to defend. You can't just contain it from the outside or inside.

But similarly, this kind of unfocused team also has no real offensive core.

Whoever feels better at the critical moment will come.

There are pros and cons.

While the Chinese team is studying Croatia, Lithuania is already studying the Chinese team in advance.

China and Lithuania are old rivals and often meet in the Olympics.

But almost every time, I was educated by Lithuania.

It may be because of this factor that the Basketball Association found a Lithuanian coach to coach.

If you can't beat me, I'll let you join me!

Although Lithuania has always been a force to stabilize China in the international arena, the Lithuanians did not dare to be careless this time.

After China beat Spain by 10 points, no opponent dared to despise the host nation anymore.

What's more, Lithuania is indeed very afraid of Yunus.

Don't underestimate the role of intelligence work, Dirk suffered a loss in this regard.

Lithuania is very confident that it can win against Greece, so it has already studied the Chinese team in advance.

In the semi-finals, this crazy team that even the Dream Team is afraid of three points will not let the Chinese team at home easily pass.

On August 20, the Chinese team ushered in the quarter-finals.

In the history of the Olympic Games, the Chinese team has never won the knockout round.

Now, every step Wayne and the others take is making history.

The course of the game was similar to what Yunas had predicted. Croatia had nothing to do in the paint.

As soon as Yao Ming came up, he used a turning dunk to abuse the opponent's No. 5 position.

Wayne also successfully scored with a turnaround.

After a 4-0 start, Croatia began to counterattack.

They used quick transfers and pick-and-rolls to find gaps.

But the Chinese team's unlimited defense changes worked.

Except for Yao Ming who directly squatted in the trap, everyone else switched defenses as soon as they saw the pick-and-roll, and they switched defenses as soon as they saw the pick-and-roll, and they executed it very resolutely.

Therefore, Croatia's shooting percentage was not high at the beginning, and they were basically strong shots.

The thing that Yao Ming missed is that although he can score, he cannot kill the game.

At this time, the disadvantages of players who do not have outstanding personal abilities are highlighted.

In the second quarter, Croatia's three-point shooting percentage continued to decline.

And Wayne turned on the God of Killing mode.

He continuously attacked the inside and scored. Croatia, which was in a state of incessant use, really had no players who could contain the superstar.

This Croatian team entered the Olympics through the play-offs, and its current strength can only be considered second-rate in Europe, almost the same level as Germany.

So there are no players who are too capable.

Wayne rushed the frame and turned into FIBA ​​LeBron in seconds.

The Middle Eastern style of play is sneaky.

It's not that Wayne doesn't want to shoot, it's because the efficiency of rushing to the frame is really too high!

The opponent doesn't dare to double-team, and he can't defend himself alone, so what kind of basket can he shoot!

rush!

Rush hard!

Rush quickly!

Rushing in and either scoring a goal or getting to the free throw line, it was so cool.

Wayne continued to rush like this for a while, and then the point difference was widened.

After half the game, the Chinese team led Croatia by 10 points!

Yu Jiadu wiped the sweat from his forehead, it seemed like he was cheating.

China leads the traditional strong teams in Europe by 10 points at halftime, something I wouldn’t even dare to dream about!

Well, the Chinese team did cheat.

Wayne can't say he is the number one cheat in basketball, but he is definitely the number one cheat in FIBA.

The Dream Team's insiders can't help it, but you, Croatia, have to take the lead in defense.

In the third quarter, Croatia began to get physical and use a full-court press to deal with the Chinese team's defenders.

After several losses, people discovered that the Chinese team actually used Wayne to organize it!

The point guard who is 2.06 meters tall is really weird.

Oh, go to hell 2.06 meters.

Croatia, which has not played with the Chinese team for many years, found that Wayne's 2.06 meter is really the pinnacle of intelligence and espionage.

Everyone naively thought that Wayne was 2.06 meters tall, but he ended up standing taller than their center.

Wayne: No, no, no, the American team will do something even more outrageous in the future. Also...I am really only 2.06 meters tall!

After Wayne started to control the ball, Croatia did not dare to use short men to match up with Wayne, because then Wayne could immediately make a pull-up jumper as long as he came a few steps from the midfield line.

Don't forget FIBA's ultra-long-range three-pointer, which is also a regular range for Wayne, who often plays in the NBA.

Therefore, we can only continue to use big men to defend Wayne.

As a result, Wayne can still control the ball easily without worrying about being intercepted.

Under Wayne's organization, the Chinese team's offense became smoother.

Play basketball wherever you want.

Although Chen Jianghua and Liu Wei felt embarrassed, they still had a great time playing.

Because under Wayne's guidance, they even stole it several times.

After Wayne switched to point guard, the Chinese team's offense began to blossom more. Zhu Ba, Ah Lian, Dasheng and Wang Zhizhi, who has always had a good touch, all hit three-pointers one after another.

The Croatian commentator covered his forehead: "What the hell... can I play this!?"

For a point guard who is over 2.10 meters tall, this guy is like pole vaulting in the toilet and passing excrement!

In the fourth quarter, Croatia exploded.

There is no way, if you don't explode, you will be eliminated.

But after only half a quarter, the game started to go crazy again.

To put it bluntly, Croatia relies a little on touch. Accurate shooting means strong. Once the shooting is good, they have to hold the chicken and play with the eggs.

The Chinese team's rapid rotation of defense prevents the opponent from finding an opportunity to take a shot. If there is no good opportunity, they can only forcefully take a shot under pressure, so the hit rate is naturally not guaranteed.

As the biggest dark horse of this Olympic Games, the Croatian team's magic weapon to win in the group stage - shooting percentage, is now completely gone.

In today's game, the Croatian team shot only 38% from the field, and its three-point shooting percentage was as low as 26%.

Even with an offensive disadvantage, Wayne was able to score 35 points, 13 rebounds, and 7 assists, making it impossible to play.

The final score was 72-58, and Croatia lost by 14 points.

If Croatia hadn't made too many fake shots in the first half of the fourth quarter, the point difference would have been even greater.

This year, when Croatia made it out of the Olympic play-offs, their head coach said: "We are not going to Beijing to travel, we are going to fight."

Facts have proved that they did it. It is very unexpected that Croatia, which is at a low period, can successfully qualify from the group.

But the big devil Wayne told them: "It's almost done."

"The game is over! Wayne almost broke down the Croatian team's defense on his own. Croatia's defense was of no help at all! We have passed the quarter-finals trial, and we are about to go to the semi-finals!" Yu Jia continued The blind chicken roars.

The commentary from the Croatian side was less impassioned.

"Wei is the most incredible player on the planet. He is on the same level as the Dream Team! No, even the Dream Team does not have such a difficult player! Today's game is simply the ultimate in personal ability. reflect!"

N has not played against the Chinese team for many years, and once they play against each other, they are taught how to behave.

Croatia said it was slipping away.

It is true that basketball is a team sport, but it is always the stars who decide the game.

In an interview after the game, a CCTV reporter asked Wayne: "How do you feel about leading your team to win the first Olympic knockout game in the history of Chinese basketball?"

Wayne's expression was not very exciting, he remained calm: "There is always someone who wants to break the first time, why not us? Now, we are the semi-finals, and we have achieved a historic breakthrough.

But it would be false if I said we have won enough.

In previous Olympic Games, we could only compete in two or three games at this level.

But this time, we will keep fighting at our doorstep! "

Wayne's impassioned declaration of victory inspired the fans.

We are also a strong team in the world!

Although the game is over, the members of the coaching staff, Wayne and Yao Ming have not relaxed.

They watched the match between Lithuania and Greece together.

Then, the Greek team was so beaten that they couldn't even find the basket.

Lithuania is really the Plus version of Croatia.

Three-pointers are accurate, everyone can shoot and pass.

The inside line is high but not slow, and the outside line is fast but not messy.

The most outstanding performance in this game was their star player, Sarunas Jaskevicius, who was briefly teammates with Wayne in the Pacers and was known as the "King of Europe."

This guy is truly the King of Europe. His performance in the European League is dominant and he has won three consecutive Champions League titles.

In fact, he played well in the NBA. The season when he was teammates with Wayne, he averaged 7.4 points per game and had a high three-point shooting percentage. He was a very high-quality shooter!

If it weren't for his positioning as a substitute, his data would definitely be better.

Later, he left the NBA because he did not want to be a small player in the NBA.

His technical characteristics must be used as the core in order to be fully utilized.

But because of his average physical fitness and poor defense, he is at best a shooter in the NBA.

So he returned to Europe and continued to dominate the European leagues.

In the international arena, Jaskovicius is also a killer.

A truly cheat-level player.

Moreover, it is a killer weapon that scares even the dream team.

In the 2000 Sydney Olympics semifinals, he missed a three-point shot that killed the Dream Team, causing Vince Carter to sit on the court excitedly and celebrate wildly.

Well, before that the Dream Team was almost playing exhibition games. As a result, this game was almost defeated. This feeling seemed to send the players of the Dream Team into hell.

And the devil who made them fall into hell was Jaskovicius, who scored 27 points in the game!

Fortunately, they finally escaped. And soon, they also forgot about the European defender who almost killed the game.

Americans thought they would never return to hell, but in 2004 they died completely at the hands of the devil.

They paid the price for their arrogance.

In Athens in 2004, Lithuania faced off against the Dream Team. This European defender made the whole world remember his name.

In that game, Jaskovicius scored 28 points, including 10 consecutive points in the most critical 1 minute and 28 seconds of the fourth quarter!

Famous star guards such as Iverson and Marbury all became his foils. When facing Odom, he even completed a four-pointer like a god descending from the earth!

Well, a guard who couldn't get a contract in the NBA scored consecutive points at critical moments and defeated the Dream Team.

If this were written into a novel, it would be said to be a forced win.

But again, reality is more magical than fiction.

The key is that Jaskevicius is not a typical European defender. Because he went to high school and college in the United States, his temper is a bit like an American defender. He is an out-and-out bad boy.

So after the game, Jaskovicius said very pretentiously: "This is just the most ordinary victory. If we don't get the gold medal, what is the use of this victory? We defeated the American team, So? We’re not here just to beat Team USA, we’re here to fight for the gold medal.”

Well, the implication is: "This is nothing special!"

It is simply a European bird.

Today, Jaskovicius was also crazy. The first half was not great, but in the second half, he scored three points one after another.

The kind that can't be stopped once you smoke it.

Of course, there is also the fact that Lithuania plays really well in the pick-and-roll.

It's very layered, and if you can't stop one, there will be another.

Wayne really didn't know this guy in depth when he was a teammate with him before. He didn't expect that he would have such a great person sitting next to him.

"Jaskovicius is not our only trouble. The Lithuanian team is not his team alone. We have a lot to pay attention to. Let's rest today and I will organize the night. Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, there will be a tactical meeting !”

After Yunus finished speaking, Yao Ming and Wayne also went back to the room.

Yao Ming clenched his fists and looked serious after coming out of the office.

He knows that Lithuania is a team that cannot lose to Spain.

It’s hard to say whether China can win.

Wayne saw Chairman Yao's concerns and patted him on the back: "If a miracle doesn't happen, it will always be just a miracle, but if a miracle happens, it is reality.

It seemed impossible for us to win against Spain before, but now that is a reality. "

"Well, have a good rest. You must have a good rest these two days." Yao Ming nodded vigorously.

After that, Wayne and Yao Ming said goodbye and returned to their rooms.

After returning to the room, Wayne did not rest immediately, but brought up the system interface.

After saving for so long, it should be enough to make up for those two points of strength attributes.

Jascovicius?

Come and see who is the real number one cheat in FIBA!
