Chapter 733

Updated: 2013-05-01

After leading by two points, the Argentina called a timeout. The scene was almost the same as before, except that the offense and defense exchanged one role. It was Argentina's turn to arrange the offense and the Chinese national team set up the defense.

After Stephen scored this goal, not only the fans, but also the team's confidence was boosted. Since Stephen was confident that he would score in three or four seconds, the next attack would be the same. And even if Argentina used up all the 24 seconds, the time left for the Chinese team would be more than seven seconds, which was enough.

Everyone knows Stephen's outstanding ability, but no one has a criterion for judging how outstanding it is. Through the attack just now, Stephen told everyone what it means to be capable of. Under the defense of the three Argentina people, they can still complete the attack within three seconds.

When Yunas was setting up defense, Stephen said nothing and listened with his ears. Yunas was very satisfied with this. If Stephen had to punch in everything and interfere with the work of his head coach, then he would have no meaning to do as the head coach.

No head coach likes players to interfere in their own tactical arrangements, especially in the national team. Yunas once had the title of "European Caesar". Caesar is the most famous ruler, dictator, and the emperor. You can imagine what kind of personality Yunas has.

If it were someone else who questioned his arrangements like Stephen just now, he would definitely exclude him from the roster of the field without hesitation, and would never have any tolerance.

But Stephen is the one who stands out, and he can't do this. On the one hand, Stephen is the best player he has since coached. None of them. Not to mention the others, at least he doesn't think anyone can accomplish the feat of 40 per game that season. Especially since basketball has developed to the present, it is getting harder and harder to score, especially maintaining such high scores in every game, which is even more difficult.

On the one hand, your opponent is constantly changing. With so many team players in the league, there are always players or tactics that can limit you; on the other hand, people are not machines, and they have to be dominated by emotions, so their state will naturally fluctuate. They can average so many games, which means that their trough is higher than that of other people.

In addition to Stephen's extraordinary excellence, another reason is that his contract is about to expire. At this time when he is about to leave, he is more willing to leave some honors and some memorials to prove his success in this position, so he chose to cooperate with Stephen rather than confrontation.

As for the rest, whether it is the support of the fans or the support of the Basketball Management Center, he did not see it. If he did not allow Stephen to play or make a fuss with Stephen at that time, the loss would be both sides. Although the fans could not cancel his coaching contract, the Basketball Management Center would not change coaches at this time, but it would not be worth the loss.

Stephen also used his performance to prove that what he said was true. His choice was reasonable. Both the players and the head coach must have trust, which is the basis for success. If a head coach does not recognize the abilities of the players under his opponents, does not believe in their abilities, and the players do not believe in the abilities of the head coach, and does not obey the arrangements and arrangements of the head coach, such a team will not be successful.

In defense, Stephen's task is to focus on defending Ginobili, and not only limit his scoring, but also limit his passing. Since the opponent may choose three-pointers to win the Chinese team in one fell swoop, it is also possible to choose two points and then defend after the draw, so the defense must be all-round.

Yunas replaced Wang Zhizhi and Zhu Fangyu, and replaced Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue. On the one hand, Wang Zhizhi and Zhu Fangyu were slow in speed, and they were older, so their reaction ability was naturally slow. At the same time, Wang Zhizhi was a little weak in attack and defense. Although Yi Jianjian was both strong in attack and weak in defense, his defense was better than Wang Zhizhi. Although Zhu Fangyu had excellent defense, his pace was slow.

As for Sun Yue, he is good at defense. In the national team, he is often responsible for the opponent's number one to number three players. Although his strength is a bit weak, his defensive awareness and flexibility are very good. At this time, Yunas also guessed that Argentina would definitely have to substitute players. Nosioni had more defense and lacked offense. At this time, Fernandez would definitely replace Juan Sanchez or other forward guard players.

The Argentina team is full of talents, unlike the Chinese national team, where only a few people can be used, so he chose Sun Yue, who has better compatibility, rather than Zhu Fangyu.

What the Chinese national team is certain is that Argentina will not choose to take action quickly like they did, because if they do this, it will leave enough offensive time for the Chinese national team unless they are ready to use foul tactics so early, but it is obviously not necessary now.

So the Argentina team will definitely set up a formation and attack slowly. Although it is beneficial to the offense, it is also beneficial to the defense. Sure enough, after the timeout, it is indeed Juan Sanchez who replaced Nosioni on Argentina.

When Stephen stood in front of Ginobili, he saw a pair of eyes that he had never seen before, and his expression was unprecedentedly cautious. This was Ginobili who could not even be seen in the Finals during the Spurs.

Because he is the leader and the controller in the national team, but in the Spurs, he plays the role of the terminator. Even after Stephen, he further degenerates into the role of the organizer of the second team.

The players on Argentina started running. Their running was very rhythmic and elusive. However, the Chinese national team players followed Yunas' instructions and responded to changes in the same way. As long as the ball rights are still in the hands of Ginobili, there is no need to panic too much.

Oberto brought up and made a pick-and-roll for Ginobili, but after blocking, the ball was still in Ginobili's hands and was not given to Oberto, because once it was dismantled to Oberto, their offense would have to stop. Oberto's strengths also lie in defense, leaving him on the court, but his sense of cooperation is better.

This was predicted, so Stephen bypassed Oberto in advance, and just got one step away, he caught up with Ginobili again. Ginobili's body was like a spring willow swaying in the wind, and his steps were elusive, but Stephen was still unmoved and followed him tightly.

Another double cover came from Argentina. Ginobili then threw Stephen's pursuit, and Sun Yue followed him. It has to be said that sending Sun Yue up is really a very good choice. Although Sun Yue cannot do all-round defense like Stephen, she can at least keep up with Ginobili and will not give him space and opportunities to take action.

Time passes by second by second. Although Argentina is a waste of time playing, it is based on the premise that they complete the attack. If they fail to complete the attack and give the Chinese team the ball rights, then they will have to do the foul.

When Ginobili turned around, he didn't find any chance of his teammates. Instead, he found that Stephen was chasing him again, and he felt a little anxious. If he was entangled by Stephen again, it would not be so easy to get rid of it, so he turned around and ran to the basket.

Suddenly, a left hand passed the ball behind the back, passing the ball to Paboropoli's Prireoni outside the three-point line. Paboropoli's Prireoni was responsible for defense, but his attention was attracted by Ginobili's pass, which was shocking how Ginobili could pass such a ball, and at this critical moment, when he dared to choose this passing technique, the ball had already reached Paboropoli's hands.

By the time he turned his attention back to Paboropolireoni's hand, Paboropolireoni had completed all the adjustments. Before Liu Wei could defend himself, Paboropolireoni had jumped high, leaned back slightly in the air, raised his hands above his head, and threw the ball towards the basket.

The whole game suddenly exclaimed, this was a three-pointer. If you make a shot, the lead would become Argentina. And now there is less than eight seconds left for the Chinese national team. As the ball flies in the air, time is still moving forward.

In the curse of all the fans and all TV viewers across the country, the ball still flew into the basket tenaciously and firmly. After three-pointers, the score between the two sides became 89-90. Now it was replaced by Argentina. It was a point ahead, giving the Chinese team 6.5 seconds left.

Yunas immediately called a timeout as fast as possible. At this time, there was no need to arrange any tactics. There was no doubt that the ball should be handed over to Stephen to complete, so he still arranged according to the previous timeout, just let the players change positions and continue to create opportunities for Stephen.

The advantage of the Chinese team is that because Argentina only leads by one point, they can choose two-pointers or three-pointers. As long as the ball is in, they can overtake the score and win this game. Therefore, the tactical options are richer, but richness is not a good thing at this time, and it will cause inconvenience to the coach's command. Therefore, Yunas only laid out a rough principle and let Stephen make decisions on the spot to adapt to the situation.

It was still like before, but the serve became Yi Jianlian. Stephen also communicated with him. When serving, try not to directly hit him, try to throw up as much as possible and throw into the open position, just give him the opportunity to grab it.

At the beginning of the game, Argentina team, like before, surrounded Stephen with a formation of three people in a half-encircled formation. Stephen kept running, using his teammates to get rid of the opponent, while waiting for Yi Jianjian's serve.

It was obvious that Yi Jianlian was a little nervous and almost made a serve mistake before sending the ball out. Moreover, the direction was very erratic. Stephen accelerated suddenly before receiving the ball, otherwise he would have sent it to Paboroplireoni.

After receiving the ball, Stephen immediately accelerated and changed direction, and used the fastest speed to get rid of the opponent's defense. His teammates took the space for him and created opportunities for his breakthrough. The Argentina team was also on guard. Everyone was paying attention to Stephen while taking care of his opponent's defensive players.

Stephen took a sudden step forward, Ginobili immediately retreated, but Scola took a step forward, blocking Stephen's path forward one left and one right. Stephen suddenly turned around at this time. Just when many people thought he was about to bypass Scola, he retreated sharply to two or three steps outside the three-point line.

Most people did not expect that although Ginobili and Paboroplioi had already rushed over at the fastest speed, Stephen had already gently pointed his toes, his body straight up in the air, holding his hands high, looking at the basket, watching the game time have changed from two to one second, and Stephen made a shot.

After Stephen landed, he turned around and held the victory gesture with his back to the basket. At this time, the ball flew into the basket and came with the crisp sound of the ball rope net. The whole field was filled with joy and cheers sounded like a tsunami.
