The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

After the two-week warm-up match, the Huaxia men's basketball team returned to the domestic training base and began the last task before the Olympics—watching the video.

Watching the opponent's game video and analyzing the opponent's technical and tactical characteristics is something that every professional basketball player must learn. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy can win a hundred battles. Only when you know your opponent and understand your opponent can you defeat your opponent better.

Under Wang Xiao's arrangement, the Huaxia men's basketball team only watched the game video of one team, the American men's basketball team, or they watched the game video of several NBA teams.

There are many strong players in the Olympic Games, but the strongest is also the one that attracts the most attention. It will always be the American men's basketball team with the title of "Dream Team". In Xiao's vision, there is only the US men's basketball team.

Among the NBA game videos collected by his assistant coaches, James and Durant accounted for more than 70%, and the remaining 30% were videos of George, Thompson, Anthony, Irving and other players.

How to limit the performance of James and Durant has become the most important issue for the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team.

Although Wang Meng's defense on the front line is very strong, he can only mark one of these two men, and even if Wang Meng is now on par with Ron Artest in his peak period, facing James or Durant The league's top superstars can only play a diversionary role.

If you want to compete with the US men's basketball team, zone defense tactics are a must.

FIBA's game rules have a particularly good advantage over the NBA, that is, there is no three-second zone and defensive three-second rule restrictions, which allows defensive players to stay at the basket for defense.

Wang Xiao has Hao Peng's trump card on the defensive end. If he makes good use of this rule, he can completely strangle the breakthrough that the American men's basketball team is best at.

When defending James and Durant, you can also use the strategy of anti-shooting but not anti-burst to prevent them from entering the inside line, and then use Hao Peng and Wang Meng, two super defensive players, to encircle and suppress them.

To implement this tactic, the first and most important thing is to lower the rhythm of the game. The lineup of the American men's basketball team is obviously full of the small ball tactics that are commonly used in the NBA. Terrible dominance.

And this depends on Jeremy Lin's ability. As a master of field control, if he can slow down the rhythm of the game on the field and enter the positional battle, he can dominate the matchup with the American men's basketball team. initiative.

...

As the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games draws closer, people are paying more and more attention to the Olympic Games. Although the number of warm-up matches held by the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team before the Olympic Games is not large, the quality of each game is very high, especially with Australia and several teams. The warm-up matches of the European teams have been exciting back and forth. Although everyone knows that this is just a warm-up match, both sides have reservations. The purpose of warm-up and performance is more than winning or losing, but it still gives many people confidence.

On August 2, the Huaxia Olympic sports team assembled and flew to Rio de Janeiro by special plane.

On August 3, the Huaxia Olympic team moved into the Olympic Village. While complaining about the poor accommodation environment in the Olympic Village, they also visited and familiarized themselves with the Olympic venues.

On August 4, the rehearsal for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

As a hero who gave up his American nationality to fight for the country, Jeremy Lin became a traffic representative in the Chinese sports circle after returning to China. In the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Jeremy Lin became the flag bearer of the Chinese delegation at the opening ceremony.

This is undoubtedly an honor. Wang Xiao remembers that the flag-bearer in 2016 should have been the fencing team's foil athlete Lei Sheng, but now it is Jeremy Lin.

...

On August 5, the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games officially began. With the lighting of the Olympic flame, the Olympic Games also kicked off.

On August 7, the first round of the men's basketball event was held in Hall 1 of the Carioca Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

Although it was only the opening match of the first round of the group stage, it attracted the attention of many viewers. For no other reason, there was a highly anticipated peak duel in the opening match.

Huaxia Men's Basketball Team VS US Men's Basketball Team.

That's right, the opponent of the Huaxia men's basketball team in the first round of the group stage is the American Dream Team.

The dominance of the Dream Team in international basketball is already deeply entrenched.

As for the Huaxia men's basketball team, although they lost five straight in the group stage of the last London Olympics and lost Yao, their strength was greatly damaged. However, in the past few years, a legendary coach Wang Xiao has turned out. , Wang Meng, Hao Peng and other NBA top-level players have made the strength of the Huaxia men's basketball team grow rapidly.

Now no one knows how strong this Chinese men's basketball team is, but there is no doubt that they can definitely compete with the American dream team!

...

"Guys, although this is only a match in the group stage, the opponent is the US team, the strongest opponent in our Olympic schedule." On the sidelines, Wang Xiao looked around at the players and said in a deep voice: "Ask me I said earlier that my goal for this Olympic Games is to win the championship and gold. To achieve this goal, the United States is the opponent we must surpass. For this day, we have worked hard to prepare for a long time, so this game must be won! "

On the other side, members of the American men's basketball team also gathered together.

The speaker was the old K, the head coach of the American men's basketball team.

"Who is the opponent's head coach in this game, I believe you are all familiar with it." Old K's tone was flat, but with a hint of seriousness. "The NBA championships in the past few years have basically been won by that guy. He is very good. At the same time, in his team, there are two NBA champions and three lottery draft players. (Yi Jianlian in 2007 Also a lottery rookie)”

"If you are contemptuous of the Huaxia men's basketball team's poor record in the past, then we are likely to lose the game..."

There is no doubt that both the Chinese men's basketball team and the American men's basketball team attach great importance to this game!

The atmosphere was extremely dignified from the very beginning. The players of the two teams all looked serious. Neither side wanted to lose the game.

...

The starting lineup of the Huaxia men's basketball team is point guard: Jeremy Lin, shooting guard: Cheng Jie, small forward: Wang Meng, power forward: Yi Jianlian, center: Hao Peng.

The starting five tigers of the American men's basketball team are point guard: Kyrie Irving, shooting guard: Paul George, small forward LeBron James, power forward Kevin Durant, center DeMarcus Cousin s.

The game starts, players from both sides enter the court for a jump ball.

When Cousins ​​and Hao Peng stood together, there was still a trace of provocation in his eyes.

As the center with the best data in the league at present, Cousins ​​already has the momentum of the league's first center because of his 20+10 double-double data this year and the Kings' performance in the finals.

However, Hao Peng's participation in the draft and being elected as the No. 1 pick made these voices quieter.

Both fans and professional sports media commentators are generally optimistic that Hao Peng will dominate the basket and become the league's number one center after entering the NBA.

This made Cousins ​​very unhappy.

Although he has seen Hao Peng play and admits that Hao Peng is really strong, he doesn't think he is much worse than Hao Peng.

Now, he finally has the chance to confront Hao Peng head-on.

"Look! I'll let you guys know who is the real No. 1 center in the league!"
