The opening three-pointer in basketball

Chapter 563 The strongest opponent

The match between the Chinese team and the Australian team was held at the famous Wukesong Stadium in the imperial capital.

Bai Yi and his teammates arrived at the stadium early. They didn't have many thoughts about Australia.

However, as the last game before the Olympics, it is also the most important friendly match.

Everyone in the team takes it very seriously.

They value Australia so much, naturally because this team is really strong.

Current NBA players in Australia include Mills and Bogut, and former NBA players include Ingles, Dellavedova, and David Anderson.

This is definitely a strong team, and most media believe that Australia should be in the top five in the world rankings.

Therefore, in the previous four friendly matches, Baiyi could easily win even half a game, but it is really hard to say whether he can win this game.

And once the Chinese team can win Australia, it will be a huge improvement for the Chinese men's basketball team.

Fans may have new expectations for the Olympics, and they may actually have a chance to win medals.

Such games naturally attract more fans.

It is said that tickets for ordinary seats have been sold for one thousand yuan each, and for some good seats, the ticket price is as high as five to six thousand.

Of course, no one went out to take action. After all, everyone wanted to see the men's basketball team show its strength at this time.

There are not many opponents like Australia.

Once you miss this game, you can only go to London to watch it.

By then the price will be higher and more expensive.

cctv5 will naturally broadcast this game live. Others, including LeTV Sports, Tencent Sports, and Sohu Sports, all have live broadcasts.

CCTV5 still has three old people, that is, Yang Yi, Su Jie, and Zhang Weiping provide commentary.

Yang Yi smiled and said: "This time it's time to see what level our team is at after having Bai Yi."

"If we can beat Australia, we do have a chance to win a medal."

"If you can't beat Australia, then you should set your goal lower and enter the quarterfinals or the semifinals. That would be a huge success."

Zhang Weiping shook his head, "This is a friendly match. The two sides may not necessarily try their best, but we still have to take a look."

Yang Yi immediately retorted, "I don't think it's necessary. We may actually meet Australia in the Olympic group stage. This time, both sides will not let go."

Su Yan watched the two people debate and said nothing.

In the first four friendly matches, even the head coach of Irak said some arrogant things.

In fact, everyone didn't take it seriously.

But Australia is different. This team is very strong. It can be said that there are five friendly matches. This one has some value. The other four are all for selling tickets and making money.

This is the only one that has real practical significance.

At Wukesong Stadium, players from both teams had already entered the stadium. As soon as Bai Yi entered the stadium, he felt a gaze locked on him.

He looked directly over and saw a big white man, who was Bogut.

Bai Yi nodded, then turned away.

When Bogut saw it, he was angry. He felt that Bai Yi was looking down on him by acting so casually.

But he didn't dare to come forward to ask Bai Yi for an argument.

Just like in the NBA, he also dislikes Bai Yi, but he knows that Bai Yi is the core of the Timberwolves and the league will not allow him to provoke Bai Yi.

Once he does that, the referee won't take his side.

Moreover, in order to show their loyalty, all the other players of the Timberwolves will immediately surround him. They don't need to take action in vain, and those people will cause trouble for Bogut.

Now it's China's home court. If he dares to provoke Bai Yi, the consequences will be even worse.

So he didn't dare to move. He just stared at Bai Yi, thinking about some dark things in his mind, and planned to go to the arena to cause trouble for Bai Yi.

After a while, the game started.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team: Bai Yi, Ah Lian, Zhu Ba, Sun Yue, and Zhou Peng.

Australia's starting lineup: Mills, Ingles, Dellavado, Nelson, and Bogut.

Among them, Ingles is a swing player. With a height of 2.03 meters, he is a small forward at this time.

Dellavivado is a guard and Nelson is a power forward.

A Lian and Bogut jump ball together. The two are about the same height. A Lian has better bounce and more explosive power. But Bogut is obviously more cunning and more experienced. He jumps up and directly attacks A Lian, attacking his body first.

, knocked away the Arab League, and then easily got the basketball.

Bogut then looked at Bai Yi proudly before passing the ball to Mills.

Bai Yi smiled, didn't care, and walked over.

Mills is 1.83 meters tall, half a head shorter than Bai Yi.

However, he has strong three-point shooting ability and good breakthroughs.

Mills is just a strong substitute in the NBA.

But in the international arena, he plays a very important role, often scoring more than 20 points.

Bai Yi was not careless. He bent his legs slightly and stared closely at Mills' waist and abdomen.

Mills did not shoot, but passed the ball to Ingles, who rushed in with the ball, easily got rid of Sun Yue, and then rushed to the basket.

"beep!"

The whistle sounded and Zhou Peng committed a foul.

Ingles made a free throw.

Guard is the position where the biggest gap between Chinese basketball and the world's top basketball powers is.

Including Sun Yue, Guo Ailun, and Wang Shipeng, China's defenders came to the world arena and generally had no breakthrough ability.

When you don't have the ability to rush the frame or break through, you can only pass the ball outside.

As a result, after passing the ball for a circle, the basketball still did not reach the key position.

Still can't get points.

For example, Australia has NBA substitutes Mills and Ingles, who can shoot suddenly in international competitions.

Like Spain, there is also Rubio.

Even though Rubio is not very good in the NBA, he is invincible in Europe.

It's because they can make sudden shots.

The Chinese team did not have such a defender before.

Ingles made two free throws, and Bogut glanced at Bai Yi with a proud look in his eyes.

Bai Yi ignored it and then winked at Sun Yue.

After the restart, Sun Yue held the ball past halftime, while Bai Yi was surrounded by Mills and Ingles.

There were people in front of Zhu Ba, Ah Lian and Zhou Peng, except Sun Yue.

Bai Yi then started running, accelerating, changing direction, stopping suddenly, and circling around. Mills reluctantly followed Bai Yi.

Ingles, who had already left the NBA, was stunned.

He didn't expect Bai Yi to run so fast and fiercely.

Bai Yi quickly ran out of the receiving space.

Sun Yue was dumbfounded at this time. He was very worried about whether his ball would reach Bai Yi's hands.

Bai Yi raised his hand for the ball.

Sun Yue hurriedly passed the ball.

The pass wasn't very good, but luckily Bai Yi had Mills in front of him. He had a huge advantage in height and arm length, so he easily picked up the ball and then raised his hand for a three-pointer.

The basketball flew up, crossed an arc, and flew into the net.
