Super Legendary Superstar

"CCTV, CCTV viewers, good evening, everyone, I am Yu Jia, and now I and Zhang Weiping, Director Zhang will explain to you the Chinese men's basketball team's first group match in the Athens Olympics. The opponent is the powerful Spain. Team, now both sides are ready. Before the game starts, let our coach Zhang explain to you, does the Chinese team have a high winning rate in this game?" Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping are both in Athens, and they will follow the Chinese men's basketball team throughout the process. , CCTV will also broadcast every game of the Chinese men's basketball team, because the Chinese men's basketball team is known as the best lineup in history, and everyone is looking forward to what kind of results the Chinese men's basketball team can achieve in the end.

Zhang Weiping smiled and said: "Everyone has high hopes for the Chinese men's basketball team this year. We have Sun Zhuo, Yao Ming and Dazhi, so many players who can be the main force in the NBA. This year will finally be different, right? Today's opponents The Spanish team can give us an answer. Is this men's basketball team really different? Can it really compete with the world's top teams? It's really hard to say who will win and who will lose with Spain. After all, It's the group stage, and we haven't entered the knockout rounds yet. No one pays too much attention to winning or losing. I think we can take it one step at a time to see if Spain can win this game. If they can win, then work hard to win. If they can't win, just let it go. Our hopes are pinned on New Zealand, Argentina, Italy, Serbia and Montenegro, and we must first ensure that we qualify from the group."

Yu Jia nodded: "Yes, if we can win against Spain today, then the pressure on the Chinese men's basketball team to qualify will be much less. Let's wait and see what kind of performance they can perform."

The atmosphere at the arena was much worse than the finals Sun Zhuo had just participated in. There were not that many people, but there were still quite a few, especially Spanish fans and Chinese fans, all waving flags and cheering.

"China team, come on! China team, come on!"

Sun Zhuo heard such shouts from time to time after entering the arena.

"Sun Zhuo, come on!"

Suddenly a sweet girl's voice sounded at the scene. Everyone was shouting for the Chinese team, but she kept calling Sun Zhuo's name. She seemed to be a fan of Sun Zhuo.

Sun Zhuo took a look at the sidelines and found a little girl of 15 or 6 years old, wearing a white T-shirt and a ponytail. She looked innocent and lovely. After realizing that Sun Zhuo was also looking at her, her pink face suddenly twitched. She was red and extremely cute. Sitting next to her were two middle-aged men and women who also accompanied her to cheer for the Chinese team. They looked like her parents.

"I have fans even when I play in Athens. It seems that this year in the NBA was not in vain." Sun Zhuo was also very happy.

Not long after, the American Dream Team 6 also arrived at the scene!

"Look, it's the American Dream Team! I didn't expect them to be here too!"

"Larry Brown, Tim Duncan, Dwyane Wade, and LeBron James are all here! I wonder who they are here for, Spain or China?"

"Of course it's Spain. Why should the Chinese team pay attention to them?"

Even if the Dream Team 6 does not deserve to be called the Dream Team, they still caused a sensation as soon as they arrived at the scene. After all, they represent the highest level of basketball.

Not the entire American team is here. People like Iverson, Marbury, and Boozer are not here. Larry Brown, Odom, Wade, James, and Anthony are all here.

"I wonder how Sun Zhuo will perform in the first game of the Olympics? Will he be as crazy as he was in the finals?" Larry Brown wanted to know more about Spain, a potential opponent, and on the other hand he also wanted to see Sun Zhuo. Performance.

In fact, the Spanish team did not take the Chinese team seriously at all. They felt that today's game was a sure win. They seemed very proud of the arrival of the American team.

"Look, even members of the American Dream Team Six came to watch our game, and even Larry Brown came here in person, which shows how much they value our Spanish team! They already regard us as their biggest opponent for the championship!" Fernandez of the Spanish team was excited after seeing the American team.

Gasol and others also think so: "Of course, this year's US team lineup is not impeccable. We have threatened them. This year we have only one goal, and that is the Olympic championship!"

The Spanish team did not take qualifying from the group seriously at all and had set their goal on the championship. They took it for granted that the Chinese team was just trying to qualify from the group.

The game started soon. The Chinese team currently has Yao Ming and Sun Zhuo as its dual core, one inside and one outside. Due to Yao Ming's height advantage, the ball will still start from Yao Ming first, and then look for other opportunities.

However, Yao Ming seemed a little nervous. He made a mistake on the first ball and the ball was intercepted after dribbling. The Spanish team advanced very quickly and quickly scored two points.

After that, Yao Ming passed the ball to Sun Zhuo, and Sun Zhuo didn't attack as soon as he came up. He was capable enough and had bug-level shooting and dunking. He could score whenever he wanted, so he thought about giving his teammates more opportunities at the beginning of the game. Let them find the feel, and then it will be easy to play.

Unfortunately, Liu Wei, Dazhi, and Li Nan either lacked confidence or had poor touch and did not complete the scoring.

At the same time, Gasol began to make waves in the interior in the first quarter, using his footsteps to pass Yao Ming several times, and then hit hard under the basket. After a while, he scored 7 points by himself!

At this time, the Chinese team only relied on Yao Ming's mid-range shot to score two points!

"Gasol is really good. He has speed, bounce, confrontation and basket. He is really difficult to defend." Yu Jia said with emotion.

Zhang Weiping also said: "When I watched the NBA, I didn't feel that watching him play in the Olympics was like a duck to water. The key is that Spain not only has Gasol, they don't rely on a single star, but the entire team. Now a single Gasol can If the Chinese team is beaten like this, if the whole team is functioning properly, it will be impossible to play."

In the first quarter, the Chinese team was completely out of shape, trailing Spain by 12 points in a single quarter. The key was that the Spanish team did not seem to be playing seriously, and easily took the lead as if they were just playing.

Seeing this, the US team coach Larry Brown also crossed his arms and looked serious. He knew that Spain would definitely threaten them.

James had never known Spanish basketball before, and he was quite impressed when he watched them play a game. He couldn't help biting his finger and asked: "When did Spanish basketball improve to this extent?"

Larry Brown looked forward and said slowly: "Spain has a very complete first division league, ACB, which is the best basketball league in the world besides the NBA. Do you know the Argentina team? Among their five main players, Only Manu Ginobili under Popovich does not have a Spanish league background, so you can imagine how influential this league is. There is a complete youth training system in Spanish clubs. Starting from the age of 15, every year There is an independent team that matches the age. Different echelons are equipped with coaches, assistant coaches, physical trainers and nutritionists. The daily training of teams at all levels is quite standardized, especially focusing on the cultivation of basic skills and tactical concepts. These things , Chinese basketball cannot match it, and it is normal to have such a gap."

"I also agree that Chinese basketball as a whole is not as good as Spain, but hasn't Sun Zhuo still played?" Wade interjected and wanted to remind everyone that Chinese basketball still has Sun Zhuo, which is not that bad.

Brown looked at Wade and said: "Yes, he hasn't played yet, but I guess he may not play today. It doesn't make any sense. He can't fight against the Spanish team alone. With the Chinese team's always conservative strategy, they may I will treat this game as a training exercise and put my hope of winning on several other opponents.”
