Chapter 787
Updated: 2013-05-24
The Chinese team sent such a lineup to withstand the initial offensive of the US team, because Yunas also expected that the US team would be in a hurry to widen the gap, and the order he gave to the players was to withstand the first three minutes.
Although LeBron James did not appear on the court, the strength of the US team was not affected. The only advantage was that Stephen did not need to focus on defense against him, but he was freed to defend Kobe Bryant, while Zhu Fangyu went to defend against Taian Shaprilins, who had a smaller offensive threat.
At the beginning of the game, Chris Paul, who got the ball, suddenly accelerated and threw Liu Wei aside. Then Fengchi killed the basket like an electric motor. Stephen wanted to stop it, but was firmly blocked by Kobe Bryant.
Chris Paul stopped and changed direction and got Yi Jianlian out of his way. Facing Yao Ming, who was wide-body, Chris Paul did not dare to move forward rashly, and got back from behind Yi Jianlian, and bypassed Yi Jianlian and went to the basket from the other side.
Yao Ming's turn was too slow. When he turned around, Chris Paul had already completed the layup. After the basket, Chris Paul turned his head and gave Yao Ming a naughty smile.
After coming back, Stephen went over to meet Liu Wei and helped transport the ball through the half. Otherwise, under the harassment of Chris Paul, Liu Wei was in danger several times and was almost intercepted by Chris Paul. After the half, Stephen passed the ball back to Liu Wei, allowing Liu Wei to organize the attack.
After Liu Wei got the ball, he passed it to Yao Ming first as usual, but Yao Ming was not in a good position. Moreover, under the double-team of the opponent's two people, his mechanism was not very good. Yao Ming passed the ball again and passed it to Yi Jianlian. However, Tai'an Shaprilins, who defended Zhu Fangyu, made up the ball at the fastest speed. In comparison, Yi Jianlian is still a familiar face at least. At least as a league that entered the high pick in the first round, as for Zhu Fangyu, who knows who he is.
Yi Jianlian suddenly passed the ball to Zhu Fangyu. This pass was not because his passing consciousness was at work, but because his friendship and tacit understanding with Zhu Fangyu made him pass the ball to Zhu Fangyu. After all, Zhu Fangyu basically had no playing time in this game, so naturally he did not perform much. If such an important game is not contributing, what would others think of Zhu Fangyu?
However, Zhu Fangyu's open shot did not hit the basket, and the Chinese team had not yet grabbed the basket. Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul jointly launched a fast break and scored two points. The gap between five points became nine points. The full defense not only did not work, but the score difference was widened by the opponent.
After coming here, Yao played Dwight Howard on the other side, but this time Dwight Howard learned his lesson and did not fight Yao Ming head-on. Instead, he waited for an opportunity to take action, knocked the ball out of Yao Ming's hands and hit the ball out of the sideline. Although it was still the Chinese team's ball rights, a good offense was destroyed, and the attack time had already been spent.
After Yi Jianlian served, the Chinese team reorganized the offense. When the opportunity was not very good, Liu Wei suddenly attacked by himself. Yao Ming hurriedly withdrew from the basket to make room for him. However, at the last layup, Dwight Howard's big hand suddenly appeared and covered the ball.
Stephen rushed over to grab the ball, but Zhu Fangyu also went to grab the ball. The two almost collided. In order to avoid Zhu Fangyu being injured, Stephen had to forcefully stop. As a result, the ball was copied by Taian Sha Prince. Prince quickly passed the ball to Chris Polo. However, this time Stephen was wary and blocked Chris Paul's way forward in advance, preventing the opponent from another fast attack.
However, after falling into the positional battle, the US team still had the ability to score the ball. This time it was Chris Bosh who pulled out. Yi Arrow United failed to follow out in time. Chris Bosh made an open three-pointer. As soon as the ball flew into the basket, Yunas immediately called a timeout.
The score difference not only did not narrow, but was expanded to 12 points by the opponent in one fell swoop. Yunas's arrangement before the opening game turned into a bubble. Why didn't Yunas get angry? As soon as the player got off the court, he started to fire at Stephen:
"Why don't you attack? Are you scared by the opponent's defense? Or are you afraid of your courage being eaten by the dog? You didn't see that the team is already behind, offense, offense, now the team needs your offense."
Turning around, he fired at the other players: "Where are your defense? Haven't you heard the arrangements in front of me? You must defend against the opponent and don't let them spread the gap. Don't you know what this means? Do you think you still have a chance to overtake after falling behind? Do you think you're satisfied with just getting one silver medal? Remember, defense, be more fierce, they are the ones who are delicate and expensive, and they should be afraid of it."
Yunas was scolded by Yunas, but no one said anything. Then Yunas stood there and said nothing, and the players were standing there. After the timeout was over, Yunas still said nothing, just waved his hand and let the players play.
Because Yunas was too much of a move just now, even the United States saw it. After returning to the court, Stephen held the ball and rushed straight to the basket. In addition to Taian Shaprilins who was defending, Kobe Bryant was on the one hand and Chris Bosh was on the other hand. Three people came to defend Stephen. Stephen was still holding the ball, rushing towards the three people bravely like a hero and martyr with a bag. Just when he was about to meet the three people, Stephen suddenly threw the ball and threw it to Zhu Fangyu who had been waiting outside the three-point line for a long time.
Since Kobe Bryant went to Stephen's side and other players also had defensive tasks, Zhu Fangyu was in an absolute open position, so he was not in a hurry to take action. After receiving the ball, he paused for a moment, looked up and observed the basket frame, then raised his hand to jump up. The ball flew out of his hand, drew a high arc in the air, and landed in the middle of the basket.
Next, the Chinese team defended the attack of the US team with all their strength. Stephen helped Yao Ming to score a shot and then successfully stole from Kobe Bryant, scored a layup with one-stop fast break, and the twelve-point gap reached another five points. The two sides first played the Chinese team with a seven-to-zero match, and then the timeout was suspended, and the Chinese team played the US team with a seven-to-zero match, which happened to be a draw.
Yunas stood in front of the bench and shook his head, not knowing whether he was dissatisfied or what to say, but Shashevsky smiled bitterly on the face of the United States. His strategy had already been effective, but when the opponent stopped, Stephen scored two assists and one fast break, but the gap was still five points, which was equivalent to not playing.
He wanted to call a timeout, but he didn't know how to arrange it. He couldn't scold the players like Yunas. Yunas dared to do that, but he didn't dare to do that. Moreover, the Chinese team did not make any new adjustments, so he didn't need to change and let the players decide for themselves.
Even in front of Stephen's defense, Kobe Bryant jumped up and made a back shot after getting the ball. Stephen's hand almost touched the ball, but he could only watch the ball fly into the basket.
However, after coming back, Stephen's defense in front of Tyane Shaprils was also like Kobe Bryant's relative, and he also made a backward jump shot in the same direction. Stephen's leaning amplitude was not as large as Kobe Bryant, because his waist and abdomen were not as outstanding as Kobe Bryant, but he jumped higher, making Tyane Shaprils' defense not effective.
Kobe Bryant continued to take action, and Stephen also acted like a slut. The two of them seemed to be funny. How do you do one? I also did one. Although this behavior looks boring and like a child fighting, this plot is the favorite among fans. Moreover, both of them are the most famous and popular stars in China. The fans also forgot about the country at this time, and everyone's offense can inspire their warm cheers.
Both sides made three consecutive shots, and all three shots were hit. However, when Kobe Bryant was about to take action again, Stephen pushed him out of the three-point line. Kobe Bryant still persistently chose to shoot, but this time he was out of stock.
Yao Ming jumped up and took the rebound from Dwight Howard's head. When he fell, he touched Dwight Howard's elbow. As soon as Yao Ming landed, Dwight Howard pushed Yao Ming to the ground. Yao Ming had no idea what was going on. Because he was still holding the ball in his hand, he didn't have time to do protective action. A body weighing nearly 300 pounds fell heavily on the floor. Because it was just under the basket, the dull collision sounded so terrible.
Yi Jianlian rushed over. He actually stopped Dwight Howard from continuing to move forward. He thought he wanted to hurt Yao Ming. As a result, Dwight Howard saw him rushing over with great momentum, he thought he was venting his anger for Yao Ming, so he waved his elbow to smash Yi Jianlian. Stephen rushed to the side and pushed Yi Jianlian aside. He had to be hit.
Yao Ming was not seriously injured, but the wound on his face was thrown open, and blood was everywhere on his face. Since the referee still discussed how to deal with Dwight Howard, the team doctor came over and wanted to help Yao Ming out of the field to treat the wound, but Yao Ming refused, so he had to deal with it simply.
In the end, the referee gave Dwight Howard a "physical foul". Like a technical foul, it also took two free throws, but the referee did not drive Dwight Howard out of the field. Even so, Dwight Howard looked dissatisfied and angry.
Yao Ming hit all the free throws. After the Chinese team served, Stephen got the ball and saw that Yao Ming had already got the position and passed the ball directly. Yao Ming turned around and sent the ball into the basket. At the same time, Dwight Howard fell to the ground.
