The Spanish coach was so angry off the court that he found Rubio as a scapegoat, otherwise he couldn't admit that there was a problem with his tactics. Yao Ming was beaten, and his tactics were fine.
The reason why we didn't catch up with the score was all because the players didn't play well.
The Spanish team attacked and Gasol hit a jumper close to the basket.
Without Yao Ming's defense, the Spanish team really took advantage in the interior.
When Marc Gasol stepped toward the basket, Wang Zhizhi was unable to grab a favorable position.
With Gasol's weight, even Wang Zhizhi couldn't push him.
When the Chinese team attacked, the players of the Spanish team looked at Zhang Zhiyuan cautiously one by one as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Just scoring is useless, they also have to defend the Chinese team's offense.
Zhang Zhiyuan's running attracted all the Spanish players to the strong side. Sun Yue was left open on the weak side, so he jumped directly on the spot and shot a mid-range shot.
Excluding the factor of game tension, this shooting was almost like training without any interference.
The ball goes in.
Sun Yue retreated with regret.
He has officially signed a contract with the Lakers and will report to the Lakers in more than a month. Unfortunately, Zhang Zhiyuan has left.
If Zhang Zhiyuan is still with the Lakers, he will get more open shots.
Spain was in a hurry and wanted to score quickly, but made a mistake in the rush. Fernandez made a mistake in catching the ball and the basketball was released.
Yi Jianlian and Fernandez both fell to the ground and fought for the ball on the floor. They held the ball in their hands and refused to let go.
The referee called a scrum, and Yi Jianlian passed the ball in the direction of Zhang Zhiyuan. Zhang Zhiyuan overcame Navarro and grabbed the ball. Then he made a long pass. Zhu Fangyu had already reached the Spanish team's half.
Zhu Fangyu then caught the ball and made a layup and scored.
"A core can really change a team. It can greatly increase the ceiling of a team."
Zhang Lili said.
Without Zhang Zhiyuan and Yao Ming, the men's basketball team would only be at the Asian level at best, and would be so beaten against teams such as Spain that it would be hard to find a way to win.
However, as long as there is either Zhang Zhiyuan or Yao Ming, they can attract the defense and help their teammates create opportunities, and Zhu Fangyu and the others can compete with the top team players in the world.
At the end of the third quarter, Spain did not catch up with the score.
70 to 53, the Chinese team led by 17 points, and the game seemed to have lost its suspense.
In an international competition that averages 20 points per game in a single quarter, it is extremely difficult to chase 17 points in a single quarter.
Even if the Chinese team feels bad, they won't be able to score less than 10 points in one quarter.
This means that the Spanish team must score more than 27 points in the end, and they have to pray that the Chinese team has a bad hand.
If you have this kind of luck, you might as well buy a lottery ticket.
Some optimistic Chinese fans have already begun to celebrate in advance, but the Spanish team obviously has no intention of giving up.
It’s not that they think they can still win, the main thing is that they have to show this kind of momentum, otherwise there will be more criticism in the country.
The last quarter started and Yao Ming appeared again.
With such a big lead, he didn't have to worry about being sent off.
Spain continues to name Yao Ming. They cannot do otherwise. They must go all the way to the dark side, otherwise their previous efforts will be in vain.
In the third minute, Yao Ming was sent off for five fouls.
However, he ended up smiling.
The team led by 20 points when Yao Ming came off the court. This could be reversed unless the sun came out from the west.
Of course, the sun cannot come out from the west, so Spain ultimately lost the game.
Because Zhang Zhiyuan clocked out of get off work early, Spain recovered a little bit of the score in the last few minutes.
The final score between the two sides was 90 to 77. The Spanish team lost by 13 points, which was not as ugly as losing by 20 points.
In terms of statistics, Gasol scored a team-high 20 points, Fernandez scored 13 points, and the rest were in single digits.
For the Chinese team, Zhang Zhiyuan scored the highest score in the team, making 9 of 17 shots, 3 of 9 three-pointers, and 3 of 4 free throws, scoring 24 points.
Yao Ming didn't play long and scored 16 points and 7 rebounds.
Yi Jianlian's condition improved somewhat and he scored 14 points relatively efficiently.
Zhu Fangyu scored 11 points, Wang Zhizhi scored 9 points, Sun Yue scored 5 points, and the others scored 11 points together.
"If we win against Spain, promotion will be guaranteed. The remaining opponents are weaker than Spain."
Zhang Lili commented.
"Hey, promotion is not something we have to consider in the first place. Our goal this time is to compete for a medal."
Sun Zhengping said.
Zhang Lili smiled. Judging from the current situation, there is indeed hope that this goal can be achieved.
On the 14th, China played against Angola, the weakest team in the group.
Angola lost a total of 50 points in the previous two games. Angola lost an average of 30.8 points per game in the five games in the original time and space, losing to Greece by 39 points and losing to Spain by 48 points.
The best game they played was against the Chinese team, losing by only 17 points.
However, now that the Chinese team has Zhang Zhiyuan, Angola is really in trouble.
Zhang Zhiyuan bombed wildly on the outside, and Yao Ming was domineering on the inside, shooting 10-of-11 from the field.
Although the Angolan players double-teamed the two of them, they still couldn't stop them from scoring.
And their double-teaming caused holes in the defense, and the rest of the Chinese team also scored easily.
The Chinese team directly shot 62% of the field goal percentage, beating the African brothers to tears and almost affecting the relationship between the two countries.
In the end, 105 to 55, the Chinese team defeated Angola by 50 points.
This is because Zhang Zhiyuan and Yao Ming did not play for long, otherwise the tragedy would have been even worse.
Yao Ming scored 26 points efficiently, and Zhang Zhiyuan scored 24 points.
Sun Yue, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, and Wang Zhizhi all scored in double figures.
For Angola, only Gomez scored in double figures, scoring 17 points.
After this game, the Chinese team qualified early.
However, this is nothing to celebrate, after all, this was expected by everyone.
At the same time, Ai Fukuhara lost to the big devil Zhang Yining in the quarter-finals. In the second round, Ai Fukuhara was beaten 9-0 and was about to have her head shaved.
Then Liu Guoliang couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to call a timeout and asked Zhang Yining why he didn't let one or two go. Zhang Yining said that he had let it go, but Fukuhara Ai didn't take it.
In order to prevent Fukuhara Ai from having her head shaved, Zhang Yining immediately performed poor acting skills and sent the ball directly to the floor, giving Fukuhara Ai 1 point.
this......
It doesn't seem to be much better than having your head shaved.
Ai Fukuhara shed tears when she lost the game and said it was a difficult game.
On the 16th, the Chinese team played against Germany.
When the players were warming up, Kaman and Zhang Zhiyuan had a friendly exchange. After all, they will be teammates next season.
At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team's starting lineup was Sun Yue, Zhang Zhiyuan, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian, and Yao Ming.
On the German side are Hamann, Green, Vysocki, Nowitzki, and Kaman.
The German team is relatively strong inside and has good defense. However, it lacks good players on the outside, which led to them losing against all other teams except Angola.
In the past, the men's basketball team without Zhang Zhiyuan defeated the German team, and now it is even less likely that there will be an accident.
Yao Ming couldn't open up the inside, so the Chinese team's offense shifted to the outside. Zhang Zhiyuan, Zhu Fangyu, Sun Yue and other outside players took crazy shots.
However, Zhu Fangyu's touch was not very good today and he had good opportunities, but he just couldn't make a shot.
Then Zhu Fangyu took fewer shots, and Zhang Zhiyuan, Liu Wei, Wang Shipeng and others threw a few more.
The three of them don't seem to have a very good feel, and they only maintained a three-point shooting rate of about 34%.
But it was enough, the German team's offense was even worse.
Their scoring mainly relies on Nowitzki and Kaman, but the Chinese team's interior defense is very strong.
The German team shot an astonishing 29%, making only 18 of 62 shots. I wonder if they thought this was an amateur team playing a game.
In the end, the Chinese team beat Germany by 17 points, 72-55.
Nowitzki scored 24 points, Kaman scored 10 points, substitute Rohrer scored 13 points, Harman and Murphy Lin scored 8 points together, and the other seven players did not score a point.
The German people were embarrassed watching this game.
On the Chinese side, Yao Ming scored 19 points on 7 of 15 shots, and Zhang Zhiyuan scored 18 points on 7 of 17 shots and 4 of 11 three-pointers.
Except for the two of them, no player scored in double figures.
Yi Jianlian scored 8 points, Zhu Fangyu 6 points, Liu Wei 5 points, Sun Yue 7 points, Wang Zhizhi 6 points, Chen Jianghua 3 points, and no one else scored.
After defeating the German team, the Chinese team ranked second in the group with a record of 3 wins and 1 loss, Spain ranked third with 2 wins and 2 losses, and the Greek team also had 2 wins and 2 losses, but because they lost to Spain, they were ranked third.
three.
The fourth place is Germany and the fifth place is Angola.
All teams have only one group match left, and the Chinese team must defeat Greece in the game the day after tomorrow to rank second in the group.
After losing to Greece, both teams had 3 wins and 2 losses. The Chinese team may be ranked behind.
The Chinese team is bound to win the match against the Greek team.
18th, the last day of the group stage.
The first match was between Yin Lang in Group A and Croatia. Yin Lang continued to lose. Their experience was similar to that of Angola in Group B. They were both selected by the short General Liba.
Angola represents Africa and Yin Lang represents West Asia.
In the second match between Australia and Lithuania, the weaker Australia defeated Lithuania unexpectedly and advanced to the knockout rounds with a record of 3 wins and 2 losses.
However, Lithuania advanced despite losing, and their record was also 3 wins and 2 losses.
This is the influence brought by Zhang Zhiyuan, otherwise they should have ranked first in the group with 4 wins and 1 loss.
At 14:00, the match between China and Greece begins.
Both teams have advanced ahead of schedule, and the next step is just to compete for ranking.
And there is actually no need to fight for this ranking. Lithuania will most likely be ranked third in Group A and face the second place in Group B in the first round.
Since Lithuania is stronger, why bother fighting for second place?
Yunas meant to give up the game, but Zhang Zhiyuan and Yao Ming disagreed.
In Zhang Zhiyuan’s words, the Chinese team does not need to pick its opponents.
Australia will beat Australia when it comes, and Lithuania will be beaten when Lithuania comes. These are countries that Zhang Zhiyuan looks unhappy with, and they beat everyone the same.
If possible, he would like to beat them all up.
Since both Zhang Zhiyuan and Yao Ming insisted, Yunus had no objection, so he still had to rely on these two thighs.
At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team's starting lineup was Sun Yue, Zhang Zhiyuan, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian, and Yao Ming.
Because Sun Yue's defense is better and Zhang Zhiyuan controls the ball, Liu Wei's role has been greatly reduced and his main position has been replaced.
On the Greek side are Svanoris, Diamantidis, Photisis, Kylinyadagis, and Borosis.
Among these people, only Svanoris has played in the NBA, but this does not mean that their players are not good enough.
Some European players just like to stay and play in Europe. It doesn't mean that they can't play in the NBA.
When these players with decent abilities come together and use relatively powerful tactics, they look pretty decent. In 2006, they even defeated the US team in an upset.
However, overall, looking at the lineup alone, the Chinese team actually has the advantage.
It's very simple. The Chinese team has two absolute strong points, but the Greek team does not. They can only play as a whole.
We can actually see some clues from the expressions of the coaches of the two teams. Yunus is more relaxed, while the coach of the Greek team has a more serious expression.
Obviously, he has not found a way to deal with the Zhang Yao combination.
The game started. Yi Jianlian gave the ball to his own team, and the Chinese team attacked first.
Diamantidis was responsible for guarding Zhang Zhiyuan, and he was not too scared.
He has played against many NBA guards before and doesn't think NBA players are anything special.
But he forgot that Zhang Zhiyuan is not only an NBA player, but also the MVP in the NBA.
The gap between NBA players is also very large, such as Zhang Zhiyuan and Sun Yue.
Zhang Zhizhi realized that his opponent did not respect him and actually chose to defend alone, so he reached out for the ball.
Sun Yue passed the ball over, and Zhang Zhiyuan pushed Diamantidis inside.
Then Diamantidis felt Zhang Zhiyuan's terrifying power and couldn't bear it at all. He could only use his strength and lower his body's center of gravity to bear it.
Then he was fooled. Zhang Zhiyuan would not really drive all the way to the basket. His purpose was to let Diamantidis lower his center of gravity.
Then Zhang Zhiyuan turned around and broke through. Diamantidis could only stare, with no time to adjust.
Zhang Zhiyuan's whole body passed by, and he hadn't finished turning around yet.
When he finished turning around, he happened to see Zhang Zhiyuan hanging on the basket. Zhang Zhiyuan contributed a dunk at the beginning.
"Best defensive player in Europe?"
Zhang Zhiyuan asked.
Diamantidis has won the best defensive player award five times in a row in the European League. Zhang Zhiyuan's question is undoubtedly a big humiliation.
"*****"
Diamantidis uttered a curse word in an attempt to hide his embarrassment.
The Greek team attacked and Diamantidis tried to single out Zhang Zhiyuan.
This is not a smart choice. Smart people will avoid Zhang Zhiyuan.
Diamantidis tried to rely on speed to break through, but it turned out that Zhang Zhiyuan was faster than him. He tried to use fake moves to deceive him, but Zhang Zhiyuan was not fooled.
Then Diamantidis was helpless.
Facing Zhang Zhiyuan's pressing, he could only forcefully take off and take action.
There is absolutely no way to guarantee the accuracy of this kind of shooting, it can only rely on luck.
The goal didn't go in, and Diamantidis' luck was not good either.
