Chapter 902: confidence

After the match with the French team, the Chinese team had a post-match reflection in the dormitory.
Gong Luming did not get angry, but still criticized the team.
"After all, we lost the game against the United States! Even though the defeat is glorious, it is also a defeat! When we lost the game, we did not summarize and pay attention to it. When we met a different opponent, we still did not play the effect that should be played. Since we are here, we still have to The people of the whole country handed in a qualified answer sheet!"
After Gong Luming finished speaking, Li Liang took the initiative to criticize himself.
"My score is still a little bit less, and if you get 10 more points, we will win."
Li Liang's words are very reasonable, but everyone dare not nod their heads.
Then, Li Liang and everyone briefly analyzed the reasons for losing to the French team.
Li Liang didn't say much about the reasons for the failure.
Because of the Olympic Games, the same opponent may only be touched once.
It doesn't matter if you lose to a certain team, just the next opponent wins.
The opponent of the Chinese team in the next game is Australia.
Before the start of the Olympic Games, the Chinese team had a warm-up match with Australia and won.
Australia is different from France in that it is not the second team, but the authentic main team.
Such an Australian Chinese team can win, even if it is a warm-up match, there will be a psychological advantage.
Secondly, in terms of lineup and play style, the Australian team is actually more biased towards the American style of play.
While France is a more typical European style of play, Li Liang will have more ways to deal with an American style of play.
The teams that play European styles are relatively worse, especially on the defensive end. They are not sensitive to the tactics of European teams and the command is not very good.
After some conclusions, on August 8, the team did not go to the beach to watch the waves.
The whole team stayed in the training hall for tactical preparation and adjustment.
The Chinese team's style of play has not changed, still one shot and four grabs.
Gong Luming conducted more detailed tactical arrangements and personnel rotation.
Make sure that the Chinese team can withstand Australia's offensive pressure when Li Liang is not on the court.
Li Liang is training his super long-range three-pointers all day to find his own three-pointers.
In the last game against France, he made only 5 of 15 three-pointers, which was the main reason why the Chinese team lost.
After two games, Li Liang has made more than 30 three-pointers, which is quite terrifying.
But there is no way. For the Chinese team and Li Liang, this is the most efficient and labor-saving way of playing.
Li Liang reduced his mid-range jumpers, and the rest of the offense was a breakthrough to the basket or a short-range jump shot.
But if his opponent thinks that Li Liang does not have a middle distance, he will definitely suffer.
...
On August 9, the third game of the Chinese team was against Australia.
Tonight the Chinese team wears a white jersey, and Australia wears a green jersey with a yellow side.
Like the French team, Australia is an NBA player in the starting lineup.
Bogut, Baynes, Dravidova, Anderson, Joe Ingles are all players who are playing in the NBA or have played in the NBA.
The game is about to begin, this game is very important for the Chinese team.
Standing in the middle circle, Bogut is doing stretching exercises, as if doing radio gymnastics.
Li Liang stepped forward and said to Bogut: "It's okay, it won't hurt later, I'll be gentle."
Big mouth did not reply.
If you play a lot with Li Liang, you'll know it. It's better not to reply back.
It's better to have energy than to play well.
Especially Bogut, because he has been beaten back, it is better to be careful.
The starting lineup of the Chinese team has been adjusted compared to the previous game.
Zhou Qi, who had originally started, was replaced by Wang Zhelin.
Although the level of the two is half a catty, that's it.
But overall Wang Zhelin has a stronger offensive ability.
Judging from the situation in the previous game, with Wang Zhelin inside, Li Liang could have one more pass and assist point.
As for Zhou Qi, his own offensive ability is still a bit worse, he has conceded too many goals, and his hook and footwork are unstable.
In this way, Yi Jianlian jumped with Bogut in the middle circle.
The Australian team took the lead in getting the offense.
Anderson asked for the ball in the low post as soon as the game started, and beat Wang Zhelin with his back.
Anderson used to play for the Houston Rockets and also partnered with Yao Ming, so Chinese fans are familiar with him.
As a result, Wang Zhelin withstood Anderson's back and force, and also caused Anderson's opening offensive foul.
The Chinese team did not hand the ball to Li Liang as soon as they came up.
Guo Ailun used the cover of Wang Zhelin to kill the basket from the outside, facing Bogut's defense, a difficult backward jumper shot, hitting two points!
The Chinese team needs to rely on Li Liang, but other players cannot completely lack the ability to attack independently.
Wang Zhelin and Guo Ailun's attack and defense gave the Chinese team a good start.
Subsequently, the Australian team made another pass error in the offense, the ball went out of the baseline, and the Chinese team made a throw-in.
The Chinese team's opening defensive intensity is very high.
Li Liang asked everyone to concentrate on defense.
He didn't want to see the scene of falling behind by 70 or 80 points at the beginning, and then struggling to catch up.
Take the lead early, isn't it good to press the opponent?
Australia has won in the first two games.
One victory over France, one victory over Serbia, and both were big wins.
It is enough to show how powerful Australia is.
So in this match against China, even if China has Li Liang, they are still a little taken lightly.
For the out-of-bounds ball, Li Liang handed the ball to Guo Ailun. After halftime, Li Liang began to pick and roll Guo Ailun.
This is a tactic that rarely appeared in the first two games.
In fact, Li Liang is very good at outside pick-and-rolls.
After the pick and roll, Li Liang immediately cut outside and received a pass from Guo Ailun. A three-point fake shook the defender away and cut into the basket from the middle.
Bogut and Anderson both came to help defend, Li Liang threw a high to the inside, Yi Jianlian jumped high, an empty catch dunk successfully!
The Chinese team played a good offensive cooperation in the opening game.
This is the offense they really need.
The Australian side played rather rigid.
Still low, this time to Bogut for singles.
China does not double-team, so Bogut will play Yi Jianlian.
After Bogut turned his back and left the hook, Yi Jianlian was very clever. One step back made Bogut unstable.
As a result, the ball got a big hook and didn't score. Li Liang got a backcourt rebound.
He saw the opportunity, and a long pass was passed to Ding Yan Yuhang, who was fast. Xiao Ding rushed to the basket and made a layup.
The Chinese team opened to the Australians with a 6:0!
Li Liang didn't score, all came from other players.
These three rounds are very important for the confidence of Chinese young players.
After Li Liang came to the Chinese team, it is impossible to say how much other people have improved their skills.
It's not a system by manpower.
And more than two months, there is not much time for system training.
A large number of match-based training, the main role is to run-in, the improvement of skills and tactics is limited.
But after Li Liang came, the biggest effect was to increase the players' confidence and have the confidence to compete with strong teams.
Before Li Liang came, the Chinese team was walking sideways in Asia, but they showed their timidity as soon as they beat European and American strong teams.
What is Lu Ji? It is that there are often some inexplicable in the game.
For example, I didn't dare to vote for the open position, but had to pass, and the result was a mistake.
He didn't dare to play one-on-one singles, hesitated and made a mistake.
When a foul was needed, he was not decisive and was beaten 2+1.
On the one hand, this kind of low-level mistakes are technical and physical problems, and on the other hand, they are due to lack of self-confidence.
Obviously you can vote by yourself, but you have to pass it, afraid, and feel that you can't enter.
Obviously you can play singles. Facing the better defense in Europe and America, if you don't meet the strong, you will be strong. Instead, the technical moves are deformed.
Except for Li Liang and Yi Jianlian in this national team, all kinds of ugly low-level mistakes have occurred.
But Li Liang led the team to play one after another, winning one after another, telling them that we can win.
Confidence is always built in victory.
A player with confidence, and a player without confidence, even if the technique and body are the same, the performance on the court is absolutely different.
Australia launched another offense, and Ingles had no chance to pass after reaching the basket.
The high Anderson received the ball, didn't dare to shoot, and wanted to pass it to Bogut.
As a result, the pass was flat and Yi Jianlian slapped it away. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
Li Liang got the rebound and launched a fast break.
You can play fast against Australia, this is not against the United States.
This time Li Liang didn't pass the ball. He used his unparalleled strength to attack Australia's three-second zone.
The Chicken Thief's Ingles also wanted to commit a foul at the basket, but he regretted the moment he was knocked down by Li Liang.
Feeling dying!
Ingles was directly hit and flew, and Li Liang succeeded in a layup.
The referee hesitated, blew the whistle, and blew Ingles's foul!
Punish!
Li Liang and his teammates high-five.
The Chinese fans on the sidelines danced happily holding the national flag.
This is a good start.
