Chapter 1818 American Soft-footed Shrimp
The competition has not yet begun, and the whole audience is filled with boiling sounds. The cheering sounds of Chinese are all around, which makes it more comfortable than English.
However, the American team members seemed to be a little listless.
Because they didn't have a good rest last night.
Although they have learned the lessons of the last World Championships and have not gone out before the game, they still have no rest.
Because of a group of enthusiastic fans.
These basketball stars of the American professional basketball team never knew that they were so popular in China. If they had known, they would have come to China to do some activities to make money.
Although China's consumption level is not as good as that of the United States, it has many people. You can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars by playing an exhibition match at will, right?
If you add some other activities, you might be able to earn tens of millions of dollars during the offseason and you can also travel by the way.
However, the popularity is also a huge disadvantage, that is, there are people who want to sign or take photos wherever they go. They are satisfied with these and have to manage their own image.
But it would be bad to chase the hotel, right?
The most annoying thing is that the hotel staff knocked on their doors at night, hoping to take a photo with them.
We have been here for so long, and have you only taken a photo now? What did you do before?
Even if you want to take a photo, can you come together? Come one by one, and let people sleep?
It was too late to finish the training and was disturbed by these enthusiastic fans for a long time. How could they have a good rest?
Even early in the morning, fans stood outside the window, holding their big signs and calling their names.
They were so painful and happy.
Some fans are very happy, but when they are disturbed by fans, how can they laugh? This is the Olympic Village, how did these fans come in?
The Olympics are different from the American Basketball Team. Many American Basketball Team are played at night. Even if they don’t have a good rest the night before, they can rest for a while during the day.
But this semi-finals are scheduled at 11 o'clock in the morning, so where do they have time to rest?
...
good
The stadium cheered thunderously.
Yao Yan deducted Howard one, but Howard didn't jump up.
Some people think Howard is afraid of fouls, but Howard himself knows that he is not afraid of fouls at all, but when he wanted to jump just now, his legs felt a little weak and he couldn't jump up.
Turning around the US team's offense, Delong made a high throw, hoping Howard would have an all-match dunk to get his face back and restore morale.
But he went to see Howard jump, but unfortunately he couldn't catch it. The basketball flew out of the field while Howard's fingertips, and the US team made a mistake!
American team coach Mike frowned. This is wrong. Howard has seized the advantage at this height. With his bounce, why didn't he catch it?
Why did Howard play so softly today? Isn’t it said that if he is tougher, it’s better to push Yao Yao out of the three-second zone?
Hey? This is not right. Although Bosh's ability to confront is a little poor, he will not be beaten by Yi Qing from Huaxia. Although Yi has good physical fitness, he is not known for his strength.
When he came back, he found something was wrong. Delong was the strongest defender of their American team. He often squeezed the opponent into the penalty area. Why didn't he even squeezed Liu Wei, the Huaxia, and was intercepted by Liu Wei?
At the beginning of the game, the US team was stunned by the Chinese team. Eight to zero, and the US team quickly called a timeout.
They have always been the US team that suspended other teams first. This is the first time that their US team calls the suspension first in this Olympics!
"What are you all doing on the court? Are you sleepwalking? We are here to win the gold medal and take advantage of our previous shame. If you are in this game, let alone gold medals, you can't get the bronze medal! Substitution, Paul, replace Deron..."
The US team has substitutions, the power forward becomes Anthony, and the point guard becomes Paul. This lineup has strong athletic capabilities and can often use fast offensive and defensive conversions to gain a lead.
But this time, Coach Mike was disappointed. Why was Paul and Anthony so in poor condition, slow movements, and seemed to be weak.
He turned his head and looked at the team doctor: "Sheldon, do they have a cold?"
Sheldon shook his head: "No, no one told me that they had some discomfort, but I just looked like they couldn't keep up with their physical fitness."
Mike looked at Gith from the coaching team again, and they were also their physical coach.
"Gis, then, they just can't keep up with their physical fitness? With such a relaxed schedule, they actually felt tired? Last night, I practiced very late?"
"No, I asked them to go back and rest very early. There is a competition today. Logically, there shouldn't be such a problem in their physical fitness."
"Coach Nate, did you take them to practice tactics in the morning?" Mike asked at the assistant coach.
Coach Nate was confused: "I didn't let them run, I only practiced the tactics for half an hour and shot for half an hour. Will this have such a big impact?"
There was no confrontation, so the physical strength should be very little. Moreover, when the competition started, these athletes became weak. Does it have anything to do with my training?
In the first quarter, the Chinese team was 32 to 19, leading by 13 points, and the audience stood up and cheered.
On the scene, the Chinese team was playing against the US team, and the audience couldn't believe that the Chinese team was so powerful? Isn't it said that the US basketball sports are the most developed, with the most geniuses, and the people who came this time were all All-Stars, so why are they so weak?
Coach Mike was squirting at all the athletes, and spitting on the faces of these athletes.
"What are our advantages? Confrontational ability! Athletic ability! But now you look at your appearance and show some advantages?"
"You can fly by someone else, you can't run away, you can't jump, you can't jump, you can't shoot, and you can't shoot for several times! Do you still have a little bit of a star player? The college students I've taught are a hundred times better than you!"
Although the coach used words to inspire the fighting spirit of the US team and made them look better in the second quarter, they were only equally divided with the Chinese team in the second quarter and were still thirteen points behind.
At the beginning of the second half, the Chinese team actually had a wave of flows, and the score difference quickly widened to more than 20. Coach Carl asked them to attack and defend quickly, shoot three-pointers when they had the opportunity, and then others rushed to rebound, increase physical contact, and defended the whole game with oppressive defense. He found that the US team was too weak, and the Chinese team's defender Sun Dasheng gave Howard two with bloody hats.
At the end of the game, the Chinese team finally beat the American team 107 to 89, with 18 points.
No one expected the result before the game. Many people thought that even if the Chinese team became stronger, the two sides should be just as good as each other, but why did the American team lose so badly?
Especially those who bought the American team to win, began to curse on the Internet, saying that these American team players were all soft-legged shrimps!
