In August, Xie Hou followed the team to check in with the Athens Olympic Village.

A few days later, the Olympic Games officially opened.

In the first game of the group stage, the Chinese team encountered a tough battle.

Their opponent is the newest European champion Spain. Before the new century, Spain was just a second-rate team in Europe. After the new century, the golden generation led by Paul Gasol rose, and the bullfighters officially entered the international basketball stage and became an emerging force that cannot be ignored.

Yao may be the most dominant traditional center in the Olympics. Unfortunately, he is facing Paul Gasol, who can beat all traditional centers under the FBA rules.

Gasol is just a star inside player between the All-Star and the Qual-All-Star in the NBA, and in the Fiba, he is like a fearsome superstar for the Spanish men's basketball team.

This is the first time Xie Hou has seen someone beat Yao Gui to this level.

Thanks to Xie Hou's joining, the Chinese team has become a strong contender for the Olympic men's basketball medals, and no European team will regard them as a second-rate team that reaches the quarterfinals.

Against this backdrop, Espanyol regarded the Chinese team as the American team to defend. Yao Yun performed poorly, the outside shooter was blocked, Xie Hou's three-pointer feeling was also affected by his teammates, and the sight was no longer there.

In the whole game, the Chinese team only hit one three-pointer.

Xie Hou won the team's highest 22 points by breaking through, and such a performance could not resist the rampage of the Spaniards.

At the end of the game, the Chinese team lost to Spain by 20 points.

"Arthur is still very good, but we are the better team," Paul Gasol said after the game.

Except for Xie Hou, everyone in the Chinese team was criticized.

Although Xie Hou's three-pointer failed to make a shot, he relied on breakthroughs to get the highest score in the team.

Xie Hou did not like the treatment of the whole team that he was not expelled from nationality. A team can have the basis of centripetal force, which is a prosperous and a loss.

Therefore, Xie Hou said in an interview: "All of us played a mess tonight, and Yao Yun and I need to reflect on it. Fortunately, this is not the March crazy NCAA, and the group stage is just beginning, and we still have a chance to turn around."

Yao Xun also said: "If you don't fight well, you will be scolded. I have nothing to say."

The next night, at the same venue, the Chinese team played against New Zealand, the weakest in the group.

"Let's kill them like a championship team!"

Harris roared in the locker room before the game began.

If even the Silver Fox is angry, then the whole team will rush up. The New Zealanders have smelled the smell of blood from the beginning of the game. It is not their blood, but their opponent's blood.

In ancient times, there were often dead soldiers on the battlefield, and these people regarded death as the end.

What the New Zealanders smell is the bloody smell on the Chinese team.

Yao Yu was criticized by netizens last night until now, and Yao Dasha's reputation has been surrounded by (those who call Yao Dasha still feel that they see him as the chairman of the layup association today).

Xie Hou saw that Yao Xu was ready to kill their opponent.

King Arthur became the sword guard in front of King Ming tonight. He was only responsible for passing the ball, and he ignored everything else.

The New Zealander has tried to shrink the defense line and double-team Yao Yu. After all, Xie Hou played Spain yesterday, and the three-pointer was terrible.

Tonight they used the Spanish east wind to double-team Yao Zhui.

Yao Yun passed the ball, Xie Hou made a three-pointer.

After that, they learned to be good and stopped double-teaming.

The New Zealanders have done their homework in advance. They know that it is difficult for Yao Yu to find his teammates in the open position after starting the attack, so they have to force Yao Yu to face the basket and then double-team each time.

However, once Yao Yun faces the basket, with the quality of the double-team of the New Zealand team, it will not have any effect at all.

Xie Hou stood outside, watching Yao Yu open his mouth like a shark and bit the New Zealander into pieces.

In the first half, Yao Yun scored 24 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists - all of these three assists were assists Xie Hou's 3-pointers.

Xie Hou scored 9 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the first half.

On the offensive end, the Chinese team beat Yao Zhuo.

On the other hand, the New Zealanders' offense did not have the stabilization needle like Yao Yun, so they had to run the ball more and try to get out the open space.

Xie Hou swept the defense outside the paint area, causing New Zealand's offense to be inaccurate one after another.

Once the New Zealander fails to make a shot, the real nightmare begins.

"Before Xie Hou joined the Chinese team, some people wanted to say that we could defeat New Zealand in the first half, but I really don't believe it." Su Yangjun, as a commentator at CCTV, yelled at Xie Hou wildly.

Commentator Yang Jian kept saying that the competition gradually entered garbage time.

In the second half, Yao Yun's offensive was restrained. After all, if he continues to fight like this, he will still have to let others open it.

Xie Hou frequently breaks through and hits New Zealand's penalty area.

Apart from rough confrontations and fouls, New Zealand can no longer stop Xie Hou.

It was precisely because of the New Zealanders' foul and confrontation that Xie Hou played a very expensive ball.

The New Zealanders' defeat was unchanged. The Chinese team defeated their opponents in a big score of 102 to 77 after the four quarters.

Yao Xu scored 32 points, 14 rebounds and 4 blocks, and Xie Hou scored 16 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He is the first person in the history of the Chinese team to score a triple-double in international competitions.

Moreover, under the fiba rules, assist data is much more difficult to obtain than NBA.

NBA assists, even if the receiver gets the ball, he will score twice before scoring. As long as it is smooth enough, it can be counted as assists. The fiba rules do not count, let alone two times, and even one time does not count.

It must be a direct assist - the type that catches the ball and hits the ball.

The assists are hard-won, which shows that Xie Hou is valuable in this triple-double.

No matter where it is, fans only recognize the results of the game.

Some outstanding stars may have supporters speaking for them, but if they lose the ball, how can they say that the loser is brave? They defeated Spain last night and defeated New Zealand tonight.

Xie Hou joked in an interview: "Tonight's game won me and my teammates two days and one night's right to breathe."

Yao Yun modestly pushed the credit for winning the ball to Xie Hou: "Without Xie Hou's passing, I wouldn't have played so smoothly, and his impact on the team was immediately effective."

When both sides praised each other, captain Li Ran was very direct: "In the past, the Chinese team walked with one foot, but now we have two feet. The others formed their own parts, and we are one."

The chemistry of the men's basketball team continues to rise. Maybe they are not considered to be friends in private, but at this moment, all the unhappiness will be let go of when fighting for the country.

Their goals are very clear.

In the third battle, the opponent was Argentina, the king of America.

Geniuses always appear in groups.

Spain has produced a golden generation, while Argentina has also produced a golden generation.

The golden generation led by Ginobili, Scola, Delfino and others has made Argentina a team that can influence the world basketball landscape.

Although the Chinese team has two superstars, Xie Hou and Yao Guo, the overall strength gap is too big. Before the game starts, every Chinese fan thinks he will lose.

"Losing 10 points is considered a win." This is a common view in China.

"Losing 10 points means winning?" Xie Hou quoted this passage in the room of the Olympic Village, and then expressed his opinion, "If you don't beat Argentina 10 points tomorrow night, we will lose!"

Within five minutes after Xie Hou posted on Sheet, all the teammates with Sheet account forwarded this Xie.

This incident immediately caused an uproar in the country.

The next night

Before the Chinese team entered the stadium, Xie Hou was surrounded by everyone: "If we can't beat Argentina more than 10 points tonight, those who forwarded me Shett will buy a bicycle with me, and we will ride our bicycles back to China."

Everyone smiled with understanding.

"No team can stop us, but only ourselves can stop us!" Xie Hou raised the ball player, "I feel that we are in a good shape, let us cherish this moment and grasp the present-123!"

"China team!"

The Argentina team is full of Xie Hou's old acquaintances, none of them have never fought with Xie Hou in the Champions League.

Each of them understood the power of King Arthur, but they had the confidence to defeat King Arthur tonight.

They were all defeated players of Xie Hou, which is true. But they never had the opportunity to gather together to challenge Xie Hou. Standing next to Xie Hou is no longer a teammate of the CSKA. Although the Chinese team has superstars like Yao Zhu, the other players are still a little bit worse.

This is the confidence of the Argentinians.

They forgot that basketball is a sport that can dominate the direction of the game with two aces.

It is a higher, faster and stronger sport.

It’s a coincidence that the highest and strongest players in this Olympics are all in the Chinese team. (The fastest one is Allen Iverson)

Argentina's combat power impressed the Chinese team from the beginning, but Xie Hou's courage to attack the penalty area was also moving.

Although Scola is an offensive killer under the rules of fiba, his defense has not improved with the changes in the stage.

Xie Hou will call Argentina's penalty area to its own backyard, and keeps stopping in the penalty area, dunking after dunk.

In order to defend, Argentina's Golden Generation two major inside players, Scott and Oberto continued to assist in defense, but were beaten by Xie Hou to find teeth.

Ginobili is the only variable, and no one in the Chinese team can limit him.

His 31-point output in the game made people tremble.

Unfortunately, Xie Hou defeated whoever he saw, and the defensive coverage was as strong as Kevin Garnett.

"Arthur is the world's strongest player tonight." The Argentine coach commented that ended that night.

In the game against Argentina, Xie Hou scored 39 points, 15 rebounds and 6 assists. He and Yao Guo took charge of three-quarters of the team's scoring, leading the Chinese team to defeat Argentina 86-74.

The moment the game ended, Xie Hou and Yao Guan hugged each other.

"It's not over yet!" Xie Hou said to Yao.
Chapter completed!
