"Boys! You have to be patient, let go and shoot three-pointers. With Darko's height inside, we have at least a 20% chance of grabbing offensive rebounds. I need you to let go and remember.
We are the champions. Although there are not many members from the last Olympic Games left on the team, the newcomers we have joined must be better. Let’s move over the corpse of the Argentine team! Our goal is-" Coach Pesic encouraged
Everyone.
“Colgate!”
"Olympic gold medal!"
Hey! I saw too many advertisements and it slipped out of my mouth unconsciously. Milicic also advertised toothpaste in the Olympics.
Less than four minutes into the second quarter, Serbia and Montenegro's second team was overwhelmed by Argentina's second team led by Argentine Delfino. When the score reached 38 to 21, coach Pesic couldn't bear it anymore and sent all the main players on the field.
, and implement a tactic, that is, Milicic will be the main attacker. If it goes around, Milicic will pass the ball near the free throw line.
As the Serbian and Montenegrin team changed into the main lineup, all the main players from Argentina also appeared on the field, not wanting to give the Serbian and Montenegrin team a chance to score points.
The Argentina team was still guarding Milicic tightly. Oberto made a three-quarter pass on Milicic. After receiving the ball, Milicic was already two steps away from the three-point line in the bottom corner. After receiving the ball,
Seeing that Oberto hadn't adjusted yet, Milicic was guessing in which direction to pass the ball or how to break through, so he simply stepped forward and made a pull-up jumper, and the ball went into the basket.
Ginobili shouted loudly to Oberto: "He has the ability to make long shots. Guard his long shots. Break through and leave a way for Scola to cover up."
It seems that although Oberto is the captain of the Argentina national team, Ginobili is the absolute core of the team and he has absolute say.
Sanchez dribbled the ball looking for an opportunity. Scola reached the top of the circle to catch the ball and handed it to Ginobili. Ginobili held the ball and prepared to break through. Oberto went out to cover Ginobili.
When Ginobili broke through, Oberto directly blocked Vujanic behind him, while Milicic faced Ginobili.
Ginobili did not choose to pass the ball to Oberto, but made a fake pass and then broke through. The short man passed through Milicic's armpit like a snake, and also passed through the helper.
Radmanovich.
Just as he jumped up to end the attack with a dunk, Milicic chased after him with a big block and slapped the ball into the audience. The audience cheered.
Ginobili looked at Milicic coldly and said to him word for word: "Big man! You angered me. I hope you can bear the consequences."
After Sanchez received the baseline ball, Ginobili yelled at Sanchez from outside the three-point line: "Give me the ball! Let me destroy them!"
After Ginobili received the ball, Vujanic was afraid of his smart breakthrough and took a step back to defend Ginobili at the three-point line. Ginobili saw that Vujanic was one step away from him.
, without hesitation, he shot a three-pointer from a step outside the three-point line. Coach Pesic shouted from the sidelines: "Protect the rebound!"
"Whoa!" The ball went into the basket, and Ginobili jogged toward his own basket. He didn't even look at the trajectory of the basketball after shooting, because he knew that the ball was bound to hit.
Fortunately, looking back, the Serbian and Montenegrin team cooperated and Radmanovic scored a three-pointer, finally regaining a little bit of the score.
Manu Ginobili, this snake-like man dribbled directly from the backcourt, intending to take over the game.
Facing Vujanic's defense, Ginobili picked up the ball a little bit faster, and the height of the ball bounced lower and lower. He was adjusting the rhythm of the ball. Every time he shot the ball, it might be a fake move.
Or it was a precursor to a breakthrough, he started! Ginobili did not make a fake move, he directly used his fast steps to force Vujanic. Vuyanic's turn speed was not fast, and when he turned around, it was lucky.
Nobili had already gone straight to the basket and rushed towards Milicic.
Milicic did not take off, but stretched his arms straight up, looking for the moment he took action to block him, but Ginobili pressed against Milicic's body and turned his body straight to the other side.
He got through and made a backhand layup, and the ball hit again.
Ginobili was half lying on the ground, and while getting up, he said: "I will work harder so that you don't have to come up in the second half." After saying that, he ran back to his half with a stomach-churning smile.
field.
Looking back, Milicic gave Bodilloga a screen, and Bodilloga scored the ball under Oberto's interference, 2+1! Bodilloga was the core of the Serbian and Montenegrin team's tactical drills during this period.
, although the arrival of Milicic has enriched the inside staff and designated a series of tactics around Milicic, the drills are not very skillful. At this moment when collapse is approaching, everyone still has to create something for Bodiloga.
Offensive opportunities, as a small forward, he is very strong, has a good breakthrough rhythm, and has extremely high shooting stability.
Here Ginobili once again held the ball and attacked. Without waiting for the big player to get into position, he broke through to the free throw line and shot an arrow on horseback, hitting the rebound.
Coach Pesic couldn't sit still anymore and called a timeout. When the Serbian and Montenegrin team walked down the court, Ginobili shrugged his shoulders toward the Serbian and Montenegrin team, spread his hands, as if to say: I too
Not intentional!
"Radmanovic changed to small forward, Milicic went to power forward, Krstic played center, Bodiloga played point guard, and Pavlovic played shooting guard. We can't compare in terms of speed.
If we beat them, we will have to overpower our opponents in terms of height and strength. Bodiloga dribbled the ball into the frontcourt and immediately handed the ball to Milicic, who would provide support. Our lineup was all
Both have accurate three-point shooting capabilities. Krstic, you position on the outside, attract Oberto out, look for opportunities to shoot three-pointers, and create a one-on-one opportunity for Milicic with Scola."
Xiqi changed a strange formation to contain the Argentine team, "In addition, Darko, when facing Scola, you need to reduce your breakthroughs. You can make jump shots after taking one step. With your high bounce, it will be difficult for Scola to block shots."
.When guarding Ginobili, Bordilloga, you use your body to block him. You don’t need to completely block him. Guard his shots. When guarding against breakthroughs, give him space on one side, and then Milisi.
Qi came up to cover the defense and compressed him in space."
Playing again, the Argentine team was indeed a little under-prepared for the Serbian and Montenegrin lineup. Bodiloga and Radmanovic took advantage of their height to pass the ball and hit two three-pointers. The score was already approaching.
As expected, Ginobili was not used to being squeezed by Bodilloga's body. After being blocked by Radmanovic, Argentina's main attack point was replaced by Nocchione and Scola.
Billy took a break and was replaced by Delfino.
Ginobili's madness has finally come to an end, but this is only temporary. Serbia and Montenegro have made targeted tactical arrangements for him, and his physical strength has also begun to decline. I believe that when he plays again,
It will also pose more threats to Serbia and Montenegro.
At the end of the half, 46 to 41, the Argentine team did not lead by much, but they allowed the main players, especially ace Ginobili, to fully rest.
Argentina will be even more ferocious in the second half, and Manu will be like a poisonous snake, lurking and waiting to deliver a fatal blow to Serbia and Montenegro.
