Chapter 150 Nine So, Are We Going To Win The Championship?

"I really didn't expect the US team to be eliminated so early."

Yi Jianlian looked at the next day, the sky was full of media from various countries reporting on the US team's loss, and some of them said that he didn't know whether to regret or be thankful!

Xu Lang actually didn't expect that the US team would be eliminated in the match against Spain.

After all, it was an American team with a large number of All-Star players.

After all, that was an American team that could make up two complete All-Star lineups.

In this way, the U.S. team will stop at the quarterfinals and will be beaten by the Spanish team by 16 points. This makes Xu Lang start to raise [-]% vigilance against the Spanish team.

At the same time, Xu Lang also felt a little excited. After the US team, the biggest opponent he had expected, was killed, the Chinese team, which was just shouting slogans to win the championship, seemed likely to come true.

Of course, before considering winning the championship, the Chinese team needs to kill their opponent in the semi-finals, the Greek team!
When it comes to the Greek team, it is natural to have to mention the starting point guard of the Greek team who has made a big splash in this World Championships.

Vasilis Spanoulis, this European star who has the nickname of "European Kobe", but his playing style has nothing to do with Kobe.

At the same time, this European super point guard who led the Greek team to defeat all the powerful players in this World Championship and broke into the semi-finals will also become Yao Ming's teammate next season.

Born in 1982, Spanoulis started his professional career in 1997. In the 2004 draft, Spanoulis was selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the 21st pick in the second round.

Then he was traded to the Rockets, but considering the difference between the NBA and European basketball, the Rockets management finally decided to let Spanoulis continue to hone in Europe for two years, and in this year's off-season, he will be recalled again. over him.

I just don't know if Spanoulis, who was generous and brilliant in the World Championships, will be able to get the approval of the old-school coach Van Gundy after he really enters the Rockets?
After all, as an old-school coach, Van Gundy, like many old-school coaches in the NBA, has a flaw that cannot be ignored, that is, it is difficult to trust newcomers easily.

Especially since Spanoulis is still a player who grew up in a European basketball environment, Van Gundy will naturally be more cautious about using it.

After all, there are too many guys who acted like super players in the European arena, and after entering the NBA arena, they immediately became a squib.

In particular, Spanoulis is still a European outside player, which makes his NBA journey will become very difficult.

Of course, whether Spanoulis' NBA journey is difficult or not is not something that Xu Lang and others need to consider now.

What Xu Lang and others need to consider now is how to kill the Greek team and Spanoulis, the "European Kobe" in the semi-finals, so as to break into the finals unprecedentedly, and then compete for the final championship trophy.

"This guy's strength is a bit different."

Looking at Spanoulis' strength evaluation, Xu Lang said with emotion!

In the systematic evaluation, Pannoulis' strength evaluation has huge differences under different evaluation rules.

If it is under the international rules and standards, Spanoulis' overall strength evaluation can reach the b+ level, although the attribute value has just reached the 85 level of the b plus level.

But after all, he is a b+ level player, so he is stronger than a b level player, and at the same time, the strength gap between him and Xu Lang is smaller.

What's more, this is a b+ level point guard. The improvement and influence of a b+ level point guard on a team is much greater than that of players in other positions.

For specific differences, you can refer to the Chinese team before Xu Lang and the Chinese team after Xu Lang.

However, Spanoulis, who has reached the B-plus level under the international standard, will be downgraded three consecutive levels under the NBA rules, and only reached the C-plus level.

This is a huge difference. One is the level of the team's absolute core point guard, and the other is the level with a high probability that he can only be a drinking fountain player in the team.

This difference in strength is also what Xu Lang has seen so far, the player with the biggest gap between his strength evaluation under international standards and his strength evaluation under NBA standards.

It's just that Spanoulis may not be too strong by NBA standards.

But now we are playing international competitions. Under international rules, a B-plus Spanoulis will inevitably bring a lot of trouble to the Chinese team.

In fact, this is indeed the case. In the semi-final match of the World Championships on September 2006, 9, the Chinese team played against Greece first.

This match, which determines the places in this year's finals, also naturally attracted the observation of the other two top four teams.

"Paul, who do you think will win!"

Jose Calderon, Xu Lang's teammate next season, seeing Xu Lang playing more and more like a core point guard in this World Championship, feels that his dream of starting the Eagles next season may be shattered again !
"Maybe it's the Chinese team, but I don't think the Greek side will surrender so easily. This game is still going to be played!"

Although, before this game, the Chinese team, which has killed their opponents all the way to the semi-finals, is considered to have locked a place in the final.

In Paul Gasol's view, the Greek team may still be weaker than the Chinese team in terms of overall strength.

However, the Greek team is not without hope of overturning the Chinese team!

And at the beginning of this game, the main core point guard of the Greek team, Spanoulis, expressed like everyone at the beginning of the game, the determination of the Greek team to win this game!

Spanoulis's playing characteristics are not the kind of players who can help the team win by scoring crazy.

Spanoulis has a unique rhythm control ability, especially under the rules of the international arena, Spanoulis' rhythm control ability may be stronger than Xu Lang, whose overall strength has reached the A minus level.

Of course, this is also when Xu Lang has just obtained the magician's template for a short time, and has not yet fully digested the strength improvement brought about by the magician Johnson's template.

In addition, after all, Spanoulis has played professional games for several years more than Xu Lang, and it is still the European League, a professional league that is very similar to FIBA ​​rules.

This allowed him to have more experience in FIBA ​​competitions than Xu Lang.

That's why Xu Lang has a higher evaluation of overall strength and has the top point-control template of Magic Johnson. His ability to control the rhythm of the court is indeed likely to be inferior to that of B+-level Spanoulis.

However, no matter how you say it, at least at the beginning of the game, the fact that the Greek team has better control over the overall rhythm than the Chinese team exists.

This allowed the Greek team to take the initiative of the game ahead of the Chinese team at the beginning of the first quarter.

Fortunately, for the Chinese team, with Yao Ming, as long as outside players can deliver the ball to Yao Ming steadily, the rhythm of the game cannot be too chaotic.

It's just that when Xu Lang also started, he would only hand the ball to Yao Ming.

Then this world's top Chinese team seems to have returned to the level of the previous world's second-rate team that only relied on Yao Ming.

Of course, the Chinese team with Xu Lang must be somewhat different from the previous Chinese team.

Although because of Spanoulis, Xu Lang was not able to directly rely on his field control ability to help the Chinese team find the best rhythm of the game as he did in the previous games.

However, its offensive containment ability with Yi Jianlian still makes the overall strength of this Chinese team stronger than that of the previous Chinese team.

It's just that the Greek team is a typical European team, a top team team.

Maybe each player's individual strength is not as strong as Xu Lang, Yi Jianlian or Yao Ming.

But with the addition of a complete defensive system, the Greek team did a good job of restricting Yao Ming and defensive pressure.

And what is different from the previous German and Australian teams is that the overall defensive system of the Greek team is more complete.

As a result, while the Greek team can slightly restrict Yao Ming's inside attack, it will not completely lose its outside defense and the restriction and oppression of other Chinese players.

The consequence of this is that in the previous games, the Chinese team, which has always been invincible on the offensive end, has begun to decline in its offensive efficiency in this game.

You know, in the previous few games, the average offensive efficiency of the Chinese team has reached more than 55%.

But in this game, the Chinese team's offensive efficiency was directly suppressed below 50% in the first quarter. This is because Yao Ming completed most of the offense in the first quarter of the Chinese team, which slightly protected the team's shooting percentage. Down!

In the first quarter of the game, Yao Ming had an individual field goal percentage of more than 60. It is conceivable that the overall field goal percentage of the other players in the Chinese team is lagging behind!
In the end, with one minute left before the end of the first quarter, although the Chinese team still had a slight lead, the game was a bit difficult. At least the fans who came to support the Chinese team now shouted for the first time The sound of cheering is not very confident!

The game time came to the last minute of the first quarter, and now the offensive ball is still in the hands of the Chinese team.

After Xu Lang dribbled the ball for half the court, he faced Spanoulis, who was already one and a half steps away from the three-point line to defend himself.

Slowly moving the basketball in his hand, Xu Lang raised his eyes and looked at the state of the game between the two teams, which was only one point away. He clearly felt the difficulty of this game. It was the biggest game for the Chinese team since entering the World Championships. !

Looking at Spanoulis who is defending himself in front of him, and who can turn his head to direct his teammates from time to time, and take a defensive position.

As well as facing Yao Ming who was entangled with at least two people inside, Xu Lang felt that he needed to make some changes.

Before this game, because the Chinese team had Yao Ming, a giant player in the interior, Xu Lang was more of a controller of the court than an attacker of the court.

But don't forget, after applying Magic Johnson's template, most of the upper limit of Xu Lang's attack-related attributes with the ball have reached the 90 level.

Coupled with the fact that Xu Lang has become a gold-level ball-handling breakthrough skill, Xu Lang's ball-handling breakthrough ability has reached the level of an all-star.

Thinking of Xu Lang here, without any hesitation, when Spanoulis turned his head again to command his teammates, Xu Lang directly changed his rhythm and was about to complete a breakthrough from the right side of Spanoulis.

It's just that under the FIBA ​​standards, the overall strength has reached the B-plus level, and the defensive strength has reached the peak of the B-plus level.

Although he didn't expect Xu Lang's sudden breakthrough this time, he reacted quickly, took two steps back and got stuck on Xu Lang's breakthrough route again.

But Xu Lang, whose ability to break through with the ball has reached the All-Star level, is not so easily restricted.

I saw that at the moment when Xu Lang was about to hit Spanoulis, he dribbled directly behind his back, tilted his body to the left, and took advantage of the situation to complete a back dribble without slowing down and a breakthrough in disguise, and turned from Pannoulis The breakout is completed on the left side.

And Spanoulis, who retreated to the right and back in advance, had no time to re-switch his defensive focus this time, and could only watch Xu Lang enter the three-point line from his left side.

After entering the three-point line, Xu Lang did not stop his breakthrough, but continued to accelerate, rushing towards the three-second zone.

Then Xu Lang, who entered the three-second zone in two big strides, received the ball one and a half steps away from the free throw line, took off directly, and faced the defense of the Greek team's inside players, he was about to complete a dunk.

After this period of continuous addition and adaptation, Xu Lang's jumping ability has been increased to 92, which is also the highest level that Xu Lang can reach after he is now using Magic Johnson's template.

The jumping ability of 92, the height of 2m01, the wingspan of 2m19, plus sufficient take-off and acceleration.

Letting Xu Lang's one-handed gliding dunk this time, even Howard may not be able to stop it, let alone the Greek team, a center whose overall defensive strength has just reached B-level!

"drop!"

With the referee's whistle blowing, Xu Lang completed a 2+1 dunk.

Obviously, Xu Lang's sudden attack made many people unresponsive, including the hosts who explained the game in the commentary booth.

"Oh, the terrifying take-off height, I think Xu Lang's take-off height this time has almost reached the level of a flat frame, right?"

"Actually, I'm not very surprised that Xu Lang suddenly showed a jumping ability that he had never shown before, or I'm already a little numb!

After all, in this World Championships, Xu Lang has shown us too many things that have not been shown before, such as field control ability, passing ability, and command ability.

Now it seems normal to show an explosive level of jumping ability and dunking ability. "

"Hey, Ah Lang, who has been playing for his teammates before, came directly to the ball by himself."

"I think this is an ability that the previous national team did not have, that is, when Yao Ming is playing more and more difficult inside, outside players can stand up to share Yao Ming's offensive pressure."

As a game that may allow the Chinese team to enter the finals all the way, CCTV Dad will naturally not stop broadcasting it live!

Xu Lang's sudden breakthrough attack this time somewhat disrupted the Greek team's original defensive strategy.

Fortunately, there was not much time left in the first quarter. In the next few tens of seconds, although Spanoulis failed to stop Xu Lang's breakthrough again.

Let Xu Lang complete a one-on-one one-on-one mid-range emergency stop jumper.

But at the end of the first quarter, the score gap between the two teams was controlled by the Greek team to only three points.

And as a team that can break into the semi-finals, the Greek team is not so easily defeated.

During the inter-section break, the Greek team immediately changed their original defensive strategy, and instead planned to strengthen their defensive strength against Xu Lang's outside breakthrough attack.

It was only when the Greek team changed their defensive strategy and strengthened the strength of the outside defense.

The Chinese team, however, carried out a lineup rotation at the start of the second quarter.

Xu Lang's individual singles ability at the end of the first quarter reminded Jonas that this guy is the leading scorer in the NCAA tournament!

In addition to being able to play a top-level interior offensive system with Yao Ming as the core, this Chinese team can.

It is also possible to use Xu Lang and Yi Jianlian as the core to play a top-level pick-and-roll offensive system that can fly!
In addition, in the first quarter of the game, Yao Ming faced a stronger defensive pressure than in the previous games and played the whole quarter, which actually caused his physical exhaustion to be a bit serious.

It just so happened that at this time Xu Lang showed the ability to take over the game, and Yao Ming could also take a rest at this time to replenish his physical fitness.

Therefore, at the beginning of the second quarter, Jonas chose beyond the expectations of the Greek team and replaced Yao Ming to rest on the court to recover his physical condition.

At the same time, another set of extremely powerful offensive system and offensive lineup of the Chinese team was mentioned on the court.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the lineup of the Chinese team became:

Center: Moko, power forward: Yi Jianlian, small forward: Sun Yue, shooting guard: Zhu Fangyu, point guard: Xu Lang.

So far in the entire World Championships, this lineup may not have the strongest offensive firepower of the Chinese team, but this lineup is definitely the lineup with the strongest impact on the basket in the entire Chinese team.

Then when the second quarter came up, the Greek team was a little defensively confused by the Chinese team's rushing style.

After the absence of Yao Ming, the counterattack speed and movement speed of the Chinese team's lineup have greatly increased.

This caused the Greek team's defensive lineup, which mainly defended on the ground, to be almost smashed by the Chinese team's rushing lineup.

Fortunately, Spanoulis, a b+ level point guard, slowed down the pace of the game in time.

Only then slowly did the generals of the Greek team come to their senses and regained their defensive rhythm and offensive rhythm.

But in the first 3 minutes of the second quarter, the Greek team was still widened by the Chinese team's crazy rushing style to open up a four-point gap.

In the end, half of the second quarter ended, and the Chinese team maintained a six-point lead.

It was just when the generals of the Greek team began to slowly adapt to the Chinese team's lineup and began to prepare for a counterattack to shorten the gap between the two teams.

Coach Jonas replaced Yao Ming on the field again after a dead ball.
