Chapter 978 Old K: It doesnt matter, I will take action!
Naturally, the betting company didn't want to miss such a carnival, and quickly gave the odds of the two teams, which were 1.5 and 2.2 respectively, which were very close.
It is probably the most incredible time in the history of the Olympics that such odds can be offered for a match involving the United States team.
In addition, there is another very interesting thing. According to information published on international logistics websites such as Amazon, the purchase volume of cardiac drugs has increased exponentially in the past two days.
It seems that not only the betting companies, but also the fans are frightened by this game of the century.
If the Tianchao team really goes all out, many people's hearts may not be able to bear it.
Time flies and comes to August 22nd.
The two-day break is fleeting. On the afternoon of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the Olympic men's basketball game is about to begin.
Hall 1 of the Carioca Stadium was packed with seats, and the aisles and corridors were occupied by fans.
Media outlets in hundreds of countries and regions are also preparing to broadcast the event early.
This is definitely the most popular game in this year’s Olympic Games, bar none!
The most incredible thing is that in this kind of game that attracts global attention, Chinese fans still account for more than half of the fans at the scene.
Even several members of the Dream Team couldn't help but complain. People in China are really rich now. Who knows how they got so many votes.
I can only say that the basketball craze prevailing among Chinese fans is really crazy!
…
During the pre-game interview session, it was time for the classic trash talk.
What is unexpected is that Wang Zelin, who is known as the most venomous mouth of the new generation in the NBA, actually criticized the American team this time: "There is no way to beat the Dream Team. The dominance of the Dream Team is too strong. They have nothing to do with other teams in the world."
It’s just not the same level.”
Good guy, you put the reverse poisonous milk here!
American reporters were also happy about this.
Media reporters who always watch the excitement without taking it too seriously asked: "Wang, Kevin said after winning against Spain the day before yesterday that he would lead the United States team to achieve three consecutive Olympic championships. In fact, he is not afraid of you and wants you to let go."
Come here, do you have anything to say to him?"
"There's nothing to say. Kevin did really well in this Olympics. I think he's second only to me." Wang Zelin pretended to be cool, but no one thought there was anything wrong with what he said.
"Xie Te! Did that guy really say that?" Soon after, when reporters relayed the content of Wang Zelin's pre-game interview to Durant, Shubao Du was a little unhappy.
However, after some careful thinking and strength comparison, he had to admit... there is nothing wrong with what Wang Zelin said!
At least before this Olympics, no one has ever been able to perform as crazy as Wang Zelin. He is completely ahead of other players in this Olympics by more than one level on the court. Even Durant can't keep up.
It's just... Du Xiaoshuai is still having a hard time.
However, he did not feel uncomfortable for too long this time, because when he thought about how he had manipulated the situation this summer, and even directly changed the structure of the league, he instantly became happy.
From Durant's point of view, this summer, basketball fans all over the world are focusing on him. As long as he can defeat Wang Zelin in an upright manner tonight and help the Dream Team 12 wash away the stigma of "the weakest Dream Team in history", he will
Will become the most handsome boy in the world of basketball today!
"Before joining the warriors, let me sacrifice you to the flag!"
Turning his head and looking at the amazing teammates of the American team behind him, Du Xiaoshuai suddenly felt full of strength.
One-on-one, he admitted that he was not as good as Wang Zelin.
But don’t forget, basketball is a sport for five people!
Wang Zelin, you are shitting!
…
…
After the interview, both parties returned to the locker room for final adjustments.
Regarding the dream team, the boys of the Tianchao Men’s Basketball Team have no baggage in their hearts. After all, the American men’s basketball team participating in the Rio Olympics this time is not the strongest in history. In addition, the Tianchao team has won consecutive games.
, my self-confidence has already exploded.
Wang Zelin didn't put too much pressure on his teammates before the game. Instead, he seized the time and came up with another set of chicken soup tricks.
Ahahaha, here comes the chicken soup!
Not to mention, this group of young men is just doing this.
Soon, it was time for the entrance ceremony. Players from both sides were introduced one after another, and a pre-match handshake was performed along with this circle.
Players from both sides walked to the center circle face to face and shook hands in turn.
An interesting scene happened at this time. When Durant faced Wang Zelin, he suddenly secretly tried to take advantage of the handshake.
But Wang Zelin quickly noticed that as he exerted force with his right hand, a terrifying force suddenly struck, and Durant grinned in pain.
When Wang Zelin let go, his eyes dodge a little, and finally he snorted coldly.
Damn you, if you can't show off, you'll get fucked!
However, it can also be seen from such details that this game is only between China and the United States, and the drama between the two team leaders Wang Zelin and Durant will be greater than in the group stage.
After the entrance ceremony, the two teams appeared one after another.
The lineup of the American team is slightly different from that of the group stage. Lillard and George are on the outside, and Anthony and Durant are two musketeers on the forward line. The center position has changed from Cousins in the first game of the group stage to one with athletic ability.
A stronger DeAndre Jordan.
This is an adjustment specially made by the head coach of the American team, Coach K, in order to speed up the mobility of the players on the American team and prevent Wang Zelin's unsolved fast break.
Although in many cases, when Old K coaches the American team in international competitions, he plays more of a mascot role, this does not mean that he is incompetent.
On the contrary, Old Coach K, as the leading legendary coach of the American NCAA, his status in the minds of countless basketball fans even exceeds that of Phil Jackson, Sima Wei, Pat Riley, Larry Brown and other legendary players in the NBA.
If you are the best teacher, you will naturally have hard goods on hand.
It's just that the overall strength of the American team is too high. When playing against other strong teams in the world, it can always cause a dimensionality reduction blow. Without him taking action at all, the American team can win the game by relying on the performance of the players themselves.
But this time, the American team's opponent was a 2.16-meter PG who had never appeared in the history of the Olympics or even in the history of basketball. While Old K felt a little pressure, he was actually more motivated.
Damn it! The head coach with the highest labor and management ranking in the history of the NCAA can only act as a mascot in the international arena and just bombard mosquitoes. Who can tolerate this?
In the past 6 games, the Chinese team has won consecutive victories and is invincible. It is second only to the American team in the record ranking list. The main reason is that Wang Zelin is too unsolvable to play the first position, whether it is France or Argentina.
, Serbia, Kangaroo Country and many other teams’ coaching staffs were unable to do anything against Wang Zelin.
But Old K said: It doesn’t matter, I will take action!
This little old man just didn't believe it. In his coaching philosophy, basketball is a team sport, not a one-man show.
Today, he planned to teach this arrogant young man a good lesson.
