The reason why Zhou Mubai thought of a way to defeat Russia when the four Chinese teams started off was not because he was so confident in himself, but because Russia, like China, is also experiencing a period of pain.

The former Soviet men's basketball team, the predecessor of the Russian men's basketball team, had a prominent record in the World Championships, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, that is, since the 1994 World Championships, Russia's best record in the World Championships was that it won second consecutively in the 1994 and 1998 World Championships.

After 10 consecutive sessions, the team began to go downhill.

At the 2001 European Championship, Russia narrowly passed the mark before qualifying for the last European zone in the 2002 World Championships, and finally won the tenth place.

At the European Championships in 2005, they lost the opportunity to go to Tokyo, Japan.

However, in 2007, Russia, with Kirilenko as its core, beat Spain down and dominated Europe without being optimistic.

This brilliant basketball power is emerging again, but this time Zhou Mubai believes that the reason for taking advantage of the opportunity is that six main players led by Kirilenko missed the World Championships!

It is precisely because of this that Zhou Mubai felt that China could defeat this Russian team without Yao Ming, without Yi Jianlian’s four main players.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even so, Russia cannot be underestimated.

During training camp and warm-up matches, Vitali Frizon's performance is worth looking forward to.

He is a late-stage player. In June 2005, he led the national team to win the U20 European Championship, which became a signal of Russia's re-emergence.

Although he was unfortunately not selected for the 2007 European Championships, he was Russia's ace at this year's World Championships.

In addition to Vitali Frizon, there is another player worth looking forward to. Russian insider Mozgov signed the New York Knicks this summer. As a non-draft foreign player who secretly contacted and quickly signed a contract, it is conceivable that his strength is recognized by the NBA.

In addition, there are also Monya, Kurbanov and Jukarenko, who are famous players in European basketball, and their strength should not be underestimated.

In short, this Russian team is not a team that is expected to reach the end, but it is definitely not a bottom team.

On the day of the game, the fans in the stadium were full of seats. This is a rare situation. Generally speaking, only the US team will have such a grand occasion. However, after three games, the Chinese team played very beautiful games, especially Zhou Mubai's average triple-double average was the best performance in the World Championships.

This World Championships allowed Zhou Mubai to gain a lot of fans, especially fans from 24 countries whose teams participated in the World Championships. Of course, Puerto Rico, who had a group fight with the Chinese team in the last game, was not included.

The competition begins.

The starting lineup of the Russian team is: Bikov, Monia, Voroncevic, Cowan, and Frizon.

The starter of the Chinese team surprised observers from various countries and coaches from the opponent, because except for Zhou Mubai, they did not see the other four starters on the starting list.

Of course, fans who watched the live broadcast in China were also quite surprised, but they quickly realized that the Chinese team is implementing a rotation rest!

This is a great thing, which shows that the national team is planning a further plan, not just looking at the victory in front of them.

"It's awesome. I didn't expect that my Chinese team could also implement the rotation rest strategy. Even when Yao Ming was there in 2008, we were not so awesome."

Some fans sighed at the Hupu Forum.

"It's awesome, but tonight's game is probably not very good. The difference in strength is probably a bit big. I suddenly stopped four starters, and I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed by the time I'm afraid of being scored a big score."

Some fans were also quite dissatisfied.

"The idiot upstairs, have we forgotten the ancient Chinese sayings?

Those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan a territory; those who do not plan for the whole world are not enough to plan for a while.

We have been sure to qualify, so what if there are a few people who take turns to rest? It won’t affect the appearance anyway.

Even if you lose tonight, as long as you go far enough behind, what is the loss of this game?

Moreover, Zhou Mubai has not yet had a rest. With him here, China's lower limit will not be much worse?

There is only one thing I want to scold, why doesn’t Deng Huade let Zhou Mubai take a rest?

The most tiring thing he did in three games, and he played the whole game in every game. The most tiring thing is him. He should be allowed to rest. He will rely on him for the next game!"

This fan is quite knowledgeable and has attracted many people to like it. When the administrator saw this hot post, he immediately pushed it up to let more people see it.

The starters of the Chinese team are Zhou Mubai, Guo Ailun, Zhou Peng, Ding Jinhui and Su Wei.

Originally, Deng Huade wanted Liu Wei to start, but Zhou Mubai proposed to start Guo Ailun. For this reason, Zhou Mubai also explained to Liu Wei specifically that others would not know how to explain it, but Liu Wei had no objection to Zhou Mubai's arrangement.

After half a quarter of the game, other people understood why Zhou Mubai suggested this.

Russia is a typical European team. Zhou Mubai believes that it is best not to compete with European teams, especially those with heavy centers like Russia, so Zhou Mubai pushed the fast attack as soon as he came up.

In terms of fast attack, Guo Ailun's role is better than Liu Wei.

Zhou Mubai told Guo Ailun that as long as the opponent shoots, don’t hesitate, just rush forward anyway!

Guo Ailun remembered this point firmly - he was particularly convinced by Zhou Mubai, and he would listen to whatever Zhou Mubai said.

Zhou Mubai’s request for Su Wei and Ding Jinhui is that when his opponent’s shooting, you must get stuck and let me take the rebound. If there is no way, he must give it to me as soon as possible to win the rebound.

Such an order seemed to be Zhou Mubai brushing the data, but Zhou Mubai also made it clear that if he wanted to launch a fast attack, there was no better candidate than him.

Su Wei and Ding Jinhui also expressed their understanding.

They were not dissatisfied with Zhou Mubai's strength. They knew it well. It was because of Zhou Mubai that the future of the Chinese team was so bright.

Tonight's game is to defeat the strong with weak, and you must use strange moves to defeat Russia.

It is precisely because of Zhou Mubai's arrangement that everyone in the Chinese team performs their own duties. Guo Ailun specializes in running, Ding Jinhui and Su Wei specializes in blocking people, while Zhou Mubai launched a fast attack and only landed in the position if he had no choice. In half a quarter, the Chinese team scored 4 fast attacks and scored eight points.
