Chapter 157 Lin Ying’s Starting Position

who I am?

I am the second in the MVP rankings, the boss of the Hornets, the successor of Iverson, the future number one point guard in the league, Chris Paul, known as the "Queen Bee"!

Sorry, I went to the wrong set.

I am a follower of the big guys, just call me Xiao Pao.

Smiling.jpg.

Even though they knew Anthony and the others were playing with Paul, the scene was still a bit tragic.

You must know that Paul had just been reversed by the Jazz last season, and unfortunately missed the Western Conference Finals.

This soul has not yet been comforted, but now it has to be a little brother to this group of people.

But Paul was the only one among this group of people.

You can't imagine the scene where Wade, Anthony and even James have bags hanging around their necks!

Seeing Lin Ying passing by, Anthony was the first to come up and say hello.

In the first game of the Olympic Games, they will perform the drama of "fighting in the same room".

When Kobe saw Lin Ying, he came over to say hello.

"Aren't you not coming?"

After chatting for a while, Lin Ying finally couldn't help but ask Kobe.

Kobe smiled and then pointed to Anthony beside him.

This means that Anthony called him here.

Anthony also laughed and nodded.

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment after seeing it.

Anthony's cards are so big?

Kobe: I can't really say that I was forced to come by sponsors, right?

Before leaving, Anthony complimented Lin Ying's new hairstyle and also glanced at Sun Yue.

Their bet, as Lin Ying knew, had already risen to US$500,000!

Tomorrow's game will be very interesting!

On the way back to the Olympic Village, teammates were also talking about Anthony's bet.

This matter has been known to the men's basketball team for a long time in history. Now that Anthony is Lin Ying's teammate, he naturally knows it even more.

"How about you also bet on how many of them I can beat?"

Sun Yue couldn't help but said.

"I attended."

Lin Ying was the first to raise his hand.

Interesting!

Whether you can beat him or not is another matter, you can't lose in terms of momentum!

If you want to detain me, I will cover you. It makes sense!

Lin Ying took the lead. Sun Yue had just mentioned this casually, but the bus immediately became lively.

"I bet three times."

Yao Ming finally spoke.

If you want to beat the US team, unless the US team can't make any outside shots, then they will shrink their defense and still have a small chance.

But that's almost impossible to happen.

In tomorrow's game, if you show momentum, you will win.

This kind of bet can be regarded as a way to increase momentum.

…

On August 10, the men’s basketball game officially started.

The match between the Chinese team and the American team is at around 10 o'clock, the last match of the day.

The game also attracted the attention of fans across the country.

According to the words released by the media, the ratings of this game will exceed that of this year's NBA Finals tiebreaker, and will also set a new record for television ratings.

There is nothing wrong with this. If there is a basketball game that can surpass Japan and South Korea in the Asian Championships, it would be the meeting between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Dream Team in the Olympics.

One is the world's strongest men's basketball team, and the other is the host. This is destined to be a match between Mars and Earth.

The men's basketball team arrived at the scene a little early. When they arrived, the game between Australia and Croatia had not yet ended.

Well, the Australians are taking a beating.

Then when the men's basketball players appeared, the fans' attention had shifted from the game on the court to the entrance.

The cheers were much louder than when George W. Bush arrived at the scene!

This is Pai Noodles!

And the photographer on the scene was really naughty and kept taking shots of Lin Ying.

Every year at the Olympic Games, some good-looking athletes are judged, and Lin Ying is now at the top.

At the end of the game, Australia was defeated 82-97.

The men's basketball players went back to the locker room early to change clothes and come out.

At this time, the U.S. men's basketball team arrived belatedly, which also attracted another wave of excitement from the fans at the scene.

There are so many stars on both sides!

Needless to say about the US men's basketball team.

On the Chinese men's basketball team, Sun Yue, Lin Ying, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, and Yao Ming, who have NBA backgrounds, can also form a team!

"This will be the beginning of an era!"

During the warm-up, Yang Yi in the commentary box couldn't help shouting excitedly.

The Chinese men's basketball team also had a golden generation. At that time, Xiao Kuailing's playing style allowed the men's basketball team to be among the top eight in the world for a long time.

According to the NBA, this group of people now should be considered the platinum generation.

It just so happens that the core strength of the opposite Dream Team is the 03 Platinum Generation.

To platinum, to platinum!

Before the game started, two more big names appeared in the stands.

This game seems to have a slightly different meaning!

When Lin Ying saw this, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be other factors taken into consideration in Yunus' decision.

But he didn't think too much about it. Since he had decided to work hard to build momentum before the game, he just went all out.

The scene entered the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games includes the playing of the national anthem.

First the American team, then the Chinese team.

When the Chinese national anthem was played, everyone stood up and thousands of people sang in chorus.

The only song that people all over the country know, it still makes me excited even after listening to it ten thousand times!

After the song ended, Lin Ying couldn't help but jump to calm down a little.

The two teams held a pre-match handshake ceremony, and Lin Ying shook hands with Kidd.

Kidd and Lin Ying were not very familiar with each other. After shaking hands, they quickly turned around and prepared to warm up.

For an old guy like him, it will take more time for the parts to move.

Just when the two sides started to warm up, fans on the sidelines learned the news.

In another game played at the auxiliary venue, Lithuania defeated Argentina, causing its first upset!

As a 2002 World Championship silver medalist and 2004 Olympic gold medalist, Argentina is second only to the United States and Spain.

And it was Lin Ying’s teammate Kleiza who completed the final victory.

This is an upset, but it also shows that the Lithuanian team is strong.

Although Ilgauskas and Masyanska will be absent due to injuries, their strength is at the level of the top four.

After the warm-up, the starting lineups for China and the United States were announced.

Team USA: Kidd, Kobe, Anthony, James, Howard

Chinese team: Lin Ying, Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming

When the starting lineup came out, the whole Wukesong was boiling.

Lin Ying is actually the starting point guard of the Chinese team!

In fact, not to mention the Chinese fans, everyone on the US team, including Old K, were all dumbfounded.

Especially Anthony, after looking at it, he communicated with James beside him in confusion. James pouted and shook his head.

The two brothers were just talking about who would play against Lin Ying!

Because Lin Ying is the swingman on the front line, he is not sure whether to play three or four.

Okay now, number one!

"The average height of the Chinese team's lineup is very high!"

Over at the commentator's seat, Yang Yi was also stunned and couldn't react. In the end, he could only hold back this sentence.

Because no information about Yunus leaked out before the game, really no one except the coaching staff and players knew about it.

This is really a surprise!

"The players in this lineup are all over 2 meters tall. They are definitely tall enough, but they may suffer a bit in terms of speed."

Zhang Weiping on the side was also down for a while before coming online.

In fact, this is not a point. The speed of the American team feels a bit like a stupid approach of completely giving up speed and fighting for height!

Of course, the two of them wouldn't say it.

As for whether Yunus's operation is good or bad, only the game can give the answer.

The pre-match warm-up time is up, and the players on both sides are getting ready to go on stage.

Before taking the field, the starting five made eye contact for a while.

This game is about fighting!

After taking the field, the players from both sides shook hands and fist bumped each other.

As mentioned before, the Chinese team also has many NBA players, and many of them are not playing against each other for the first time.

After saying hello, Yi Jianlian and Howard made a jump ball in the midfield.

The war with China is about to begin!

Lin Ying looked around at his teammates at this time.

In addition to excitement, there is also nervousness.

The strength of Mengba on the opposite side is "claimed" to be second only to that of the Dream Team!

He looked back and sniffed.

There was a real smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

"beep!"

A whistle sounded on the sidelines, and Howard shot the ball directly to the Chinese team's half.

This ball is a bit similar to the "stealing chicken tactic" used by the University of Texas back then.

However, Lin Ying reacted quickly, jumped into the air to intercept, and directly cut the ball off with his long arms!

This is stealing the chicken but losing the rice!

The scene burst into cheers instantly.

This is equivalent to the Chinese team jumping to get the ball!

However, the cheers of the fans soon turned into agitation, because the American team pressed the whole court as soon as they came up!

As a famous NCAA coach, Old K reacts too quickly.

The Chinese team is particularly afraid of pressing, and Lin Ying doesn't know how to control the ball. There is no better tactic than this.

But he soon discovered that he had made a mistake.

Because Lin Ying got the ball and gave it to Yao Ming immediately, and then pushed forward with Sun Yue.

Yao Ming is equivalent to a giant transfer station, transitioning the ball to the frontcourt with one transfer.

This time, they didn’t even control the ball!

"Yunas came prepared!"

This also made Yang Yi excited.

Use height to reduce dribbling. This is a great idea to break the press!

But when it comes to the frontcourt, the problem still exists.

After all, this is not a volleyball game. It is unrealistic to score the ball without luck.

Moreover, fiba is different from the NBA. The venue is smaller, and the American team moves quickly and reacts quickly. Yao Ming's post-up play in the low post will only result in being double-teamed.

How the Chinese team will play is very curious.

Then, the answer came quickly.

Lin Ying and Yao Ming’s inside and outside lines!

Lin Ying is at the top of the arc, Yao Ming is inside, then Zhu Fangyu and Yi Jianlian are spread out on the wings, and Sun Yue is running around looking for opportunities to catch the ball without the ball.

I have to say that Yunus is still very good.

This tactic can be said to take advantage of all the advantages of the five people on the field.

However, the American team's confrontation was too strong.

Except for Yao Ming and Lin Ying, who stood still, everyone else would be knocked away if they tried to pick and roll.

Even Yi Jianlian, who has improved his confrontation, cannot compete with NBA super giant opponents because of the limited improvement.

So after two laps of tactics, there was no chance.

The ball passed through Sun Yue's hands for a while and was almost broken, but finally returned to Lin Ying's hands.

There was not much time left to attack, so Yao Ming saw it and pulled up to the high post.

Then Lin Ying used the pick-and-roll to break through with the ball!

This is such a surprise!

Howard and Kidd both looked surprised.

They have played against Lin Ying in the NBA, but Lin Ying has never been good at breaking through with the ball!

Surprise is a surprise, these people react really quickly.

In almost an instant, they gave Lin Ying a "double ghost slap" and sandwiched him in the center to make a hamburger.

Then Lin Ying gave them another surprise.

He didn't want to attack at all, he just passed the ball behind his head without looking at anyone in the air!

Bald points!

The ball rubbed his hair and was thrown into Yao Ming's hands.

True to its name, it's a bit of a waste of hair.

An open opportunity finally appeared on the court, but Yao Ming was standing at the three-point line!

Just when the fans thought this tactic failed, Yao Ming took action directly from the three-point line!

Catch the enemy by surprise and attack them unprepared!

"Rebound!"

James was shouting on the court, and he was also rushing in.

"Uh-huh!"

Only there is no backboard!

Yao Ming hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc.gif!

The cheers erupted instantly as the Chinese team made a surprise start!

This game is also broadcast live in the United States.

This goal also surprised the commentator over there.

But in fact, the three-point line in fiba games is shorter, and Yao Ming has that range.

Old K sat upright from the bench at this time.

Yunus gave him a full surprise tonight!

And the surprises continue.

The first wave of position battles for the American team.

At this time, the Chinese team's defense on the field was man-to-man, with Sun Yue versus Kidd and Lin Ying versus Kobe!

Although he was playing point guard, Yunus did not let Lin Ying actually guard the point guard!

Moreover, Lin Ying guarded Kobe when he was with the Nuggets, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with this matchup.

Kobe started the offense with the ball, and Howard's midline pick-and-roll, Anthony caught the ball on the wing and made a three-pointer.

Compared with his successor Popovich in history, Old K is much better.

In one round, you will find that the American team can use tactics, and it is simple and effective!

But the moment Anthony took action, he was interfered by Lin Ying's defense.

The advantage of Lin Ying playing guard is that he will be positioned on the outside and can rely on his excellent height and wingspan to put enough pressure on the US team from the outside.

As for the insider, there is Yao Ming on the inside!

"Dang!"

Anthony's first shot ended in a blacksmith!

This wave is a defensive deterrent from teammates.

The ball was a long rebound. Anthony, Lin Ying and James jumped up one after another to take the penalty kick.

Facing the Dream Team, you have to do your best to even grab a ball!

In the end, Yao Ming ran out and got the ball.

The Chinese team launched a defensive counterattack, with Lin Ying and Sun Yue going down quickly.

Then you will find that this group of defenders looks high, but they actually move very quickly!

Lin Ying passed the ball to Sun Yue, and Sun Yuefei made a layup.

"boom!"

A figure flew out and came from James's iconic nail board to chase the hat!

You have to try your best to grab a ball. How can scoring be so easy!

The ball was also caught by Kidd who followed up.

The American team counterattacked the Chinese team's defensive counterattack!

Fortunately, Sun Yue's quick eyes and hands quickly pushed Kidd's ball out of bounds, and the game entered a dead ball.

The two teams played for almost two minutes at the beginning, 3-0, and Yao Ming scored a goal!

The quality of offense and defense on the field is suffocating!

It looks like playing basketball, but it’s all about the details.

Kobe continued to play pick-and-roll with Howard. This time, he did not pass the ball and broke out. Facing Yao Ming in a misplaced position, he reached the penalty area and made a dodge layup in the air.

This technical move is very beautiful, but...

"boom!"

"Not. Today! Kobe!"

With the shouts of the American commentator, Yao Ming fought hard and blocked Kobe's shot!

With a three-pointer and a big shot in front, how can you tell that Yao Ming just came back from a serious injury!

He really worked hard for this Olympics!

After the ball was blocked, it was in Lin Ying's hands. Lin Ying was more direct this time and threw the ball forward.

This does not count as leading people to run, but letting Sun Yue at the front do his best to chase the ball.

In the end, Sun Yue got the ball before it went out of bounds, and after turning his head and taking a look to make sure he wasn't chasing, he easily put the basket up and scored.

5 to 0!

The Chinese men's basketball team gave the American team a start!

The cheers continued.

The live footage was given to Yunus, the head coach of the men’s basketball team.

In the opening rounds, we can fully see the benefits that the "Five Deaths" have brought to the Chinese men's basketball team.

High means that you have better passing routes and better shooting vision when attacking, and it also means that you will be a greater defensive deterrent on the defensive end.

So you may not believe it, but the Chinese team relied on the defensive counterattack that the American men's basketball team was best at under Old K's rule!

"Basketball is the game of giants" is not true all the time, but at least it is most of the time!
