Chapter 903: 1st victory

Under the continuous offensive of the Chinese team, Australia requested a timeout.
Australia was very obsessed with playing inside, but the results were not good.
With Li Liang's help protection and Yi Jianlian squatting in the three-second zone, the Chinese team's inside line is not so easy to break through.
In the last game against France, China did not lose in the paint, but the defender was killed by Parker, Dior and others.
After coming back from the timeout, Australia replaced Anderson and replaced it with No. 10. It seemed that it was going to give up the inside route and play better cooperation.
Australia is a tenacious team with outstanding performance.
Their players like Delavidova, Bogut, Baynes and others are all simple and practical players.
So the overall style is head-to-head, unlike France, which is more devilish.
In the first game of the Olympic Games, head-to-head Australia beat France to the fat and won by more than 20 points.
France, on the other hand, played well in its fight against China and killed China.
Now it's China's turn to fight Australia, and the situation is different. China is not afraid of head-to-head with China. It's just that if you don't head-to-head with China, you can play with flowers and monsters, and China's young and young experience will not work.
This is the so-called mutual generation and mutual restraint.
After the suspension, Australia's offensive crisis has not eased.
When Delavidova broke through, the referee called a foul.
What the referee said, Li Liang wondered whether he took Yao Ming's money?
Of course Li Liang will not let go of this good opportunity to widen the points difference.
Catch the ball in the middle, cut in with the ball after the pick-and-roll, and squeeze the defender into it.
Squeezed to a certain distance, with a strong body, he made a short jump shot and hit the board.
It's too stable.
After that, Australia's No. 10 Barstow received a pass from the opponent on the right and forced a three-pointer to hit!
The Australian team's substitution is still effective, and Anderson's role is indeed not as good as Barstow.
Then in the defense, Yi Jianlian ate Barstow from the low post, but he slapped the layup after turning around.
The confrontation in the Australian team's defense is really strong. This group of white players are very powerful and love confrontation.
The Australian team launched a counterattack, but did not succeed.
The ground pass was kicked out of the baseline by Guo Ailun, Australia's ball.
The opportunity to strike back quickly becomes a battle of positions.
The Australian players are obviously a little anxious.
If the Chinese team does not have Li Liang, it doesn't matter if they start the game like this.
Anyway, I can definitely catch up later.
But with Li Liang in the Chinese team, the situation is completely different.
Positional attack, Mills made a three-pointer at the bottom corner, but still missed.
Li Liang caught the backboard and started to push the offense unhurriedly.
After halftime, he adjusted his breathing. Wang Zhelin and Yi Jianlian mentioned a double screen in the high post.
Li Liang moved horizontally to the middle, the top of the arc, two steps from the three-point line, and the three-pointer shot directly!
Hit!
This rhythm and feel is really great.
Australia really panicked. The head coach paced back and forth on the sidelines, shouting loudly, directing the players on the field. The fastest mobile phone update::
Their status is too late to call out.
This is, still No. 10 Barstow, after a high pick-and-roll, followed by Delavidova's pass, another shot from outside the three-point line, hitting a three-pointer.
The Chinese team's defensive strategy is still very clear, shrinking, double-teaming the ball holder inside, and letting you shoot outside.
You have the ability to throw me to death, or I throw you to death.
In this way, it is forcing the opponent and the Chinese team, or soaring three-pointers with Li Liang.
The French team was not fooled, using efficient breakthroughs and dazzling passes to tear the Chinese team's defense line apart.
Moreover, Li Liang was in a bad state and eventually lost the game.
Now, Barstow scored two three-pointers, so Australia seems to see a solution to the problem.
But did not expect that this is a trap set by the Chinese team.
The pace of the game between the two sides gradually became faster. The Chinese team not only made a three-pointer from Li Liang, but Yi Jianlian also hit a three-pointer after receiving a pass from Zhao Jiwei after the pick and roll!
Under the leadership of Li Liang, the Chinese team began the rhythm of a national three-pointer.
In the first 10 minutes, the Chinese team led the Australian team by 8 points at 26:18.
The Australian team did not expect to be beaten by the Chinese team in this way.
Li Liang scored 9 points in the first quarter, and Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhelin, and Guo Ailun all scored.
This is a good sign, no longer relying too much on Li Liang.
After the beginning of the second quarter, Gong Gui also boldly carried out a rotation, replacing Li Liang with Li Gen.
Li Gen has rarely appeared in previous games. Although he has excellent physical fitness, he has defects in speed and movement.
Li Gen played a role immediately after his debut. He was physically fit and very active in fighting.
Hit the inside line to commit a foul, and go to the free throw line. Chairman Yao may really give the referee money.
Two free throws were made to help the Chinese team further expand the points difference.
Australia wants to chase points, but the offensive end has been playing until it is not smooth.
At this time, the shortcomings of the three-pointer became apparent and it was not stable enough.
Australia hit three three-pointers in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, they missed consecutive three-pointers from the outside.
After the Chinese team did not have Li Liang, the offense was not good.
But you don't score, and I don't score either. I'm still the leader.
What the Chinese team has to do is take time and give Li Liang plenty of rest.
Therefore, even if there is a chance to fight back, Guo Ailun and Zhao Jiwei will not push back.
To grind the position, I would rather grind the 24 seconds to the end and switch the ball, not giving Australia a chance to counterattack.
Continue to shrink in defense, resolutely shrink, you can shoot outside, and I will fall down.
This tactic really worked. The Australian team didn't hit a three-pointer until 4 minutes in the second quarter.
The point difference was reduced to 5 points.
But the Chinese team called a timeout, and Li Liang was coming back.
Back to the court with the lead, this is the first time Li Liang played this game.
The days of clocking in three quarters and halftime in the NBA are long gone.
In the Chinese team, Li Liang has become accustomed to falling behind by 10 points, 15 points in the opening, 7 or 8 in the half, and then he started to chase the rhythm of the comeback.
It is really unaccustomed to be leading now.
Of course, Li Liang will not disappoint his teammates.
After returning to the court, the morale of the team further increased.
Especially on the defensive end, the Chinese team did a very good defensive tonight.
Tortoise shrinking, zone defense.
Don't think that zone defense is very simple. In fact, zone defense requires a very high degree of coordination among players.
Once there is a situation where the response is not timely and there is no tacit understanding between each other, there will be an embarrassing phenomenon of two people defending one, and as a result no one will defend.
And the Chinese team can maintain the defense formation for a long time without dispersing, it can be said that the discipline and concentration of attention are quite high.
Australia faced this kind of defense, playing impetuously, and finally couldn't throw a three-pointer outside.
The offense of the Chinese team is getting smoother and smoother.
Li Liang completely brought the Chinese team's offense to life.
The U.S. team has a group of defensive strikers, the French team has Batum anyway, and with Gobert in charge, Li Liang has been restricted.
Australia has no defensive player who can threaten Li Liang at the striker position.
As for the insider Bogut...Li Liang continued to kill the insider from the second quarter, challenging Bogut's help to block the cover.
Bogut’s pile defense is very strong, but Begobel is a lot worse by helping to prevent and block.
As a result, Li Liang kept making jump shots on Bogut or Baynes' heads.
Australia originally wanted to guard against Li Liang's three-pointer, but Li Liang's emergency stop jumper was overwhelmed.
After Bogut was thrown into confusion, he looked sad.
When the Warriors were shot, how could they still be shot in Australia?
At the end of halftime, the Chinese team led Australia by 10 points at 50:40!
The Chinese team played perfectly in the first half, squeezing the stronger overall strength of Australia.
In the second half, in the third quarter, Australia began to counterattack.
Unexpectedly, Li Liang, who was well versed in rhythm, suddenly opened up in the third quarter.
He used the "Mid-range hit promotion post" to become a horned death god.
On the one hand, Li Liang felt that he felt very good in the middle distance tonight.
On the other hand, the Australian perimeter defenders' single defense ability is not good enough, and they do not do well in defense near the free throw line.
Bogut or Baines squeezed in and couldn't get out.
Li Liang keenly caught the loopholes of the Australians, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com began to hit the distance continuously.
After catching the ball, dribble it a little bit, then throw it when it is pulled up.
After receiving the pass from Guo Ailun, shake the fake action, pull it up and then throw it.
Compared with the NBA, the ball used in international competitions has six skins changed to eight, and more stitched surfaces, so the ball is grasped more firmly and the shot is more stable.
Li Liang shot 7 of 8 mid-range jumpers in the third quarter without free throws. The Australian coach who made the shot squatted in a daze from the sidelines.
The Australian team's counterattacks were all put out by Li Liang's mid-range jumper.
In the third quarter, the Chinese team expanded the point difference to 13 points instead.
In the fourth quarter, Australia finally struggled.
The Chinese team relied on a tenacious defense to hold the advantage, and finally defeated the powerful Australia by 87:80 and 7 points, and won the first victory in the Rio Olympics!
