There are many factors that can affect the game process. For example, who the opponent is against will also have a great impact.

Just like the past three World Series, whenever the US team encounters an opponent with many NBA players, they will unconsciously play it as an NBA game. Just like Tracy McGrady saw Yao Ming when someone was guarding him and wanted to blow Yao Ming away.

Or using defensive three seconds to force Yao Ming to leave the three-second zone. NBA regulations are that when an offensive player is outside the three-second zone and someone is defending around him, the nearest defensive player under the basket cannot enter the three-second zone even if the distance is within an arm's length.

Stay in the area.

McGrady has a very high basketball IQ. If it were an NBA game, his first attack could be considered a good use of Wang Shipeng's close defense to limit Yao Ming's defense at the basket.

But this is not the NBA. McGrady's offensive strategy looks stupid. Likewise, Kwame Brown's withdrawal from the three-second zone and not giving McGrady a chance to pass the ball also looks stupid.

This kind of reaction is an instinctive reaction on the US team. Their players rarely play in international competitions. For games like the Pan American Basketball Championship, they always send college students or development league players to play. If they want to win in a short period of time,

It is too difficult to reverse the instinctive reaction that has been played in the NBA, NCAA, and high school and junior high school leagues in the United States for more than ten years in six or seven games over ten days.

The U.S. team needs to deliberately avoid this in order to adapt to the rules of the international basketball competition. Obviously, this is also one aspect of restraining the strength of the U.S. team. FIBA ​​knows that international competitions are not as enjoyable as the NBA, but they still do not increase the defensive three seconds. That is

I don’t want Team USA to win too easily.

Of course, even if the Chinese team enjoys this advantage, the American team still does not fall behind, it is too strong!

The Chinese team chose hard steel!

Fight violence with violence!

There is no way to target the opponent from a tactical perspective. Sun Tzu once said in The Art of War that there is no way to defeat the strong with the weak, but to force the strong. When the US team encounters a team with many NBA players, it is easy to treat it as an NBA game at a certain stage.

At this point, Liu Mang and Yao Ming launched a fierce attack!

Liu Mang's comprehensive skills and super personal ability, no matter where he appears, cannot be defended by one person. Especially this summer, Liu Mang is in excellent condition and has continued his strong performance in the playoffs.

On Yao Ming's side, Kwame Brown was as unable to guard as ever, and the U.S. team did not have a large center, so Yao Ming had to double-team when holding the ball.

If there is a chance to counterattack, Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue will cooperate with Liu Mang. If there is no chance to counterattack, it depends on who has the better chance, Liu Mang or Yao Ming. Liu Mang can choose to play singles by himself or for Yao Ming. If there is a double team, he will distribute the ball.

To the open shooter.

One thing that is fortunate for Liu Mang is that Wang Shipeng and Sun Yue made accurate shots. Yi Jianlian also grasped the timing of the cut-in very well. He is worthy of grabbing offensive rebounds next to the future triple-double king. Even if his teammates can't make a shot, they can finish it.

Two tip-ins, using James to play power forward... James is a good rebounder, but his height is really a bit short for playing power forward in international competitions, not to mention he is still the 1.0 version before he gained weight.

After Yao Ming played two or three consecutive singles, Liu Mang played two more singles, allowing Yao Ming to rest more. With Yi Jianlian's offensive rebounding guarantee, the Chinese team led the American team by three points, 27-24, in the first quarter!

The Chinese team entered the break with a three-point lead!

…

Returning to the bench, Yao Ming slapped Du Feng's hand hard, sat down and gasped.

With 10 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block on 4 of 6 shots, Yao Ming tried his best and finally helped his teammates create a slight lead.

Yao Ming himself never thought that he could play so aggressively and carelessly against the US team. He dared to do this because he had Wang Zhizhi as a substitute!

Compared with Wang Zhizhi in 2008 in the original time and space, Wang Zhizhi has been shooting farther from the three-point line in the NBA. Facing stronger opponents, Wang Zhizhi is obviously stronger and more trustworthy to Yao Ming. Moreover, Yi Jianlian is also better than the one in 2008 in the original time and space.

Yi Jianlian was stronger. Yi Jianlian's outstanding performance of 4 points and 5 rebounds in the first quarter ensured the rebounding well.

The most important thing is...there is Liu Mang!

With 9 points, 2 steals, 2 blocks, 2 assists and 2 rebounds, Liu Mang's offensive and defensive performance in the first quarter was explosive!

Relying on Yao Ming's fiery performance, leading by 3 points entering the second quarter, Liu Mang felt very excited, but also knew that now more troublesome things were coming.

With 3 minutes left in the first quarter, the Chinese team actually led 23-15 by 8 points, but Anthony, Iguodala, and Bosh came on the court, replacing James, Kidd, and Kwame Brown.

With the lineup of Iguodala, Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Anthony, and Bosh, the US team played a 9-4 run in the last three minutes, suddenly narrowing the point difference to 3 points.

Unreasonable suppression of strength, the terrible American team!

The break is coming to an end. Head coach Harris’s arrangement is very simple, give the ball to the boss! Except for Liu Mang, even Sun Yue and Liu Wei have difficulty pushing the ball past half court in the face of Kobe’s defense. The little blacksmith dies.

The shameless and homophobic defense is too shameless. Liu Mang can only lead the offense, and the Chinese team does not have an outside line that is more effective than Liu Mang leading the offense.

Having worked together many times, Silver Fox Harris has no worries about Liu Mang's physical fitness, and since this is the final, there will be no problem no matter how hard he uses Liu Mang to death!

Looking at Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, and Liu Mang who were about to play together, when they listened to the tactics, they knew that they were now going to use a one-star, five-shooter tactic, which was even more advanced than Xiao Zhanzhan's tactic.

Liu Mang now wanted to convey his current emotions to his teammates and turned on the head of state mode: "Just enjoy the game with everything you have! I don't know if I will have the opportunity to stand on such a stage with the American team in the future, whether it is a win or a win."

, as long as we try our best, we will not regret it! Kill them! End the war with war!"

"Pfft..." Yao Ming, who was drinking water, spat out Liu Mang's words...

Looking at his teammates who were shouting along with Liu Mang, Yao Ming felt that these people were hard of hearing...

Yao Ming felt that maybe he had grasped something wrong... He felt that the focus of Liu Mang's words did not seem to be the issue of winning or losing...

…

After the break, Liu Mang appeared on stage together with Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian.

Wang Shipeng and Yi Jianlian will risk their lives to accompany the gangsters today. Wang Shipeng is the best performer among domestic players in this Olympics. He cannot be tired at this time!

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Chinese team attacked first. Liu Mang received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt. Iguodala defended him. The other members of the American team were Prince, Anthony, Boozer, Bosh...

Liu Mang secretly sighed that it would be perfect if Yao Ming could play for 30 minutes. How happy it would be to beat Bosh...

After sighing, Liu Mang suddenly pulled up and made a zombie jumper almost two meters away from the three-point line!

Iguodala rushed forward, but Liu Mang's rhythm interfered with his defense. Liu Mang's ultra-long-distance three-pointer hit the basket without any arc!

Liu Mang knew that he had to face Prince, Iguodala, and McGrady, three teammates who were very familiar with him. McGrady was okay. There was a big height gap and a big speed gap. The main reason was that Iguodala could match his speed.

Above, Prince's wingspan for defensive prediction is too good. Liu Mang has been practicing extra time in the past period to try to better control the rhythm of zombie jump shots. When he beat Iguodala, the effect was even better!

He's just so aggressive! When Liu Mang needs to be aggressive in this Olympics, he has always been so aggressive!
