Chapter 444:

After the two-week warm-up match, the China Men's Basketball Team returned to the domestic training base and began the last task before the Olympics --- watch the video.
Watching the opponent's game video and analyzing the opponent's technical and tactical characteristics is something that every professional basketball player must learn. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and the enemy is not dead. Only by knowing the opponent and understanding the opponent can you better defeat the opponent.
Under Wang Xiao's arrangement, the China Men's Basketball team only watched the game videos of one team, the American Men's Basketball, or they watched the game videos of several NBA teams.
There are strong players in the Olympics, but the strongest is also the most watched. It will always be the American men's basketball team with the title of dream team. Other strong teams such as Spain, France, Australia, etc., although the strength is also very good, but in the king In Xiao's field of vision, there is only the US men's basketball team.
In the nba game video collected by his assistant coach, James and Durant accounted for more than 70%, and the remaining 30% were videos of players such as George, Thompson, Anthony, and Owen.
How to limit the play of James and Durant has become the most important issue for the China Men's Basketball Team.
Although Wang Meng’s defense on the front line is very strong, he can only target one of the two, and even Wang Meng is now on par with Ron Artest at his peak, facing James or Durant. The top stars of the league can only play a role as a lead.
If you want to compete with the US men's basketball team, defense tactics are necessary.
Compared with the NBA, FIBA's game rules have a particularly good advantage that there is no three-second zone and the three-second defensive rule limit, which allows defensive players to stay at the basket for defense.
Wang Xiao has Hao Peng's defensive trump card. If you make good use of this rule, you can completely choke the best breakthrough of the American men's basketball team.
When defending James and Durant, you can also use the strategy of defending against shots and sudden attacks to prevent them from entering the interior, and then use Hao Peng and Wang Meng two super defensive players to encircle them.
If you want to implement this tactic, the most important thing is to lower the pace of the game. The American men’s basketball lineup is obviously full of the small ball tactics currently used by the NBA. When the speed is raised, there are both offense and defense. Extremely terrifying dominance.
And this depends on Jeremy Lin’s ability. As a master of court control, if he can slow down the pace of the game on the court and enter a positional battle, then he can occupy the match with the American men’s basketball team. Initiative.
...
As the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is approaching, people are paying more and more attention to the Olympics. Although the number of warm-up matches of the China Men’s Basketball Team before the Olympics is small, the quality of each match is very high, especially against Australia and several teams. The warm-up matches of European teams have been played back and forth. Although everyone knows that this is just a warm-up match, both sides have reservations. The purpose of warm-up and performance is greater than victory, but it still gives many people confidence.
On August 2, the China Olympic Games team assembled and flew to Rio de Janeiro by special plane.
On August 3, the Huaxia Olympic team moved into the Olympic Village. While complaining about the poor accommodation environment in the Olympic Village, it also stepped on and became familiar with the Olympic venues.

As a hero who gave up his American citizenship to fight for his country, Jeremy Lin became the traffic representative of China Sports Circle after returning to China. Jeremy Lin became the flag-bearer of the Chinese delegation at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
This is undoubtedly an honor. Wang Xiao remembers that the flag bearer in 16 years was supposed to be a fencing team player Thunder, but now he is Jeremy Lin.
...
On August 5, the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games officially began. As the Olympic flame was lit, the Olympic Games also kicked off.
On August 7, the first round of the men’s basketball event was held in Hall 1 of the Carioca Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

That's right, the opponent in the first round of the China Basketball Team was the American Dream Team.
The dominance of the dream team in international basketball has long been entrenched.
As for the China Men’s Basketball Team, although they lost five straight in the group stage of the last London Olympics and their strength was greatly damaged by the loss of Yao Yao, in recent years they have turned out a legendary coach Wang Xiao, who personally trained Jeremy Lin and Jie Cheng. , Wang Meng, Hao Peng and other NBA first-class top-level players, making the strength of the China Men's Basketball team grow rapidly.
No one knows how strong this Chinese men's basketball team is now, but there is no doubt that they can definitely beat the American Dream Team!
...
"Guys, although this is only a match in the group stage, the opponent is our strongest opponent in this Olympic schedule, the US team." On the sidelines, Wang Xiao looked around the players and said in a deep voice: "Ask me As I said earlier, my goal in this Olympics is to win the championship. In order to achieve this goal, the United States is our opponent that we must surpass. For this day, we have worked hard for a long time, so this game must be won! "
On the other side, the members of the American men's basketball team also gathered.
The speaker is the head coach of the US men's basketball team.
"Who is the head coach of the opponent in this game, I believe you are all familiar with it." Old K's tone was flat, but with a trace of seriousness. "In the past few years, the NBA championships have basically been taken over by that guy. He is very powerful. At the same time, on his team, there are two NBA champions and three lottery draft players. (Yi Jianlian 2007 Also a rookie in the lottery
"If you have contempt for the previous poor record of the China Men's Basketball Team, then we are likely to lose the game..."
There is no doubt that in this game, both the China Men's Basketball and the US Men's Basketball attach great importance to it!
The atmosphere was very solemn from the beginning. The players of both teams were serious and serious, and neither side wanted to lose the game.

The starting lineup of the China Men's Basketball Team is point guard: Jeremy Lin, shooting guard: Cheng Jie, small forward: Wang Meng, power forward: Yi Jianlian, center: Hao Peng.
The starting five of the American men's basketball team are point guards: Kyrie Irving, shooting guards: Paul George, small forward LeBron James, power forward Kevin Durant, center DeMarcus Cousin S.
At the start of the game, players from both sides jumped into the field.
When Cousins ​​stood with Hao Peng, there was a trace of provocation in his eyes.
As the current center with the best data in the league, Cousins ​​has faintly gained the momentum of the league's first center because of this year's 20+10 double-double data and the Kings' performance in the finals.
However, Hao Peng's participation in the draft and being the No. 1 pick made these voices smaller.
Whether it is a football fan or a professional sports media commentator, they are generally optimistic about Hao Peng entering the NBA and dominating the basket to become the league's first center.
This makes Cousins ​​feel very upset.
Although he has seen Hao Peng play and admitted that Hao Peng is indeed very strong, he does not think he is much worse than Hao Peng.
Now, he finally has the opportunity to confront Hao Peng head-on.
"Look at it! I will let you know who is the real No. 1 center in the league!"
