MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1014 opponents are fans
Chapter 1014 Chapter 1014. The opponents are all fans
In the afternoon, Nowitzki kept talking non-stop, because he was worried that Liu Xiu would ask this question.
Now he is also ready to turn on the chatterbox mode, but this guy discovered the problem when he first met...
But seeing Anne Hathaway trying to prevent Liu Xiu from asking questions, Nowitzki knew that if he didn't say anything, she would tell Liu Xiu when they parted.
Nowitzki called the two, entered the arena to the unused training ground, and told his sadness.
To put it simply, he was cheated by his ex-girlfriend.
His friends in the NFL Cowboys told him that his girlfriend had cheated on him, but he didn't believe it.
His teammates told him that his girlfriend hooked up with his teammates while he was away, but he didn't believe it.
His parents felt that his girlfriend was insincere and full of lies, so he reassured his parents that his girlfriend was fine.
Cuban told him directly to get rid of his girlfriend, and he strongly objected.
Then, his girlfriend told him that she was pregnant. He believed it and bought a house for her. Fortunately, the real estate agent was his fan. Before the completion of the gift, the property still belonged to his name.
During this year's playoffs, he discovered one thing.
What his friends, teammates, boss, and family say is true, his girlfriend is pregnant is false...
At first, Nowitzki just wanted to simply put the matter aside, but as a result, he burst into tears, out of control, and vented all his sadness and grievances.
It’s just that, he didn’t get the comfort he imagined…
The Silver Horn King wiped away his tears and shouted, "Warden, were you kidding me just now!"
"No!"
"I don't believe it, I saw the corners of your mouth turned up!"
“I was born with a smiling face.”
"real?"
"Fake, you are so easy to lie, hahahaha..."
"..."
King Silver Horn feels angina!
But, after telling everything, he was **** off again, and he felt that most of the sadness, grievance, unwillingness, and shame in his heart had dissipated.
He looked at Liu Xiu, who finally couldn't help laughing wildly, and Anne Hathaway, who couldn't help laughing, and didn't know whether he should say thank you.
He reckoned that the warden wanted to enlighten him on purpose?
Nowitzki was struggling, Liu Xiu looked at the time, pulled Anne-Hathaway away: "The game is about to start, let's go!"
The neglected King Silver Horn put away his gratitude, he was sure now, this guy was just laughing at him!
But now that you feel better, let's forgive this nasty guy again.
…
When Liu Xiu came to the athlete viewing area, he was not the only one from the Chinese team, and all his teammates came together.
The game between the U.S. team and the Argentina team started on time at 8:00 p.m. After the first quarter, Liu Xiu’s pressure increased sharply, and Nowitzki looked desperate.
In the first quarter, the U.S. team continued their ferocious start. They scored 30 points in the first quarter. The most important thing was that they were also very brutal on the defensive end, preventing the Argentine team from scoring only 11 points!
This looks too cruel and amazing. It feels to Nowitzki that it is even crazier than the Chinese team scoring 42 points in the first quarter against Spain in the group stage.
The Chinese team failed to defend the Spanish team that time, scoring 42 points and only leading by 9 points. The US team beat the defending champion Argentina by 19 points in the first quarter!
In the end, the US team defeated the Argentine team 101 to 81 and advanced to the quarterfinals with 5 wins and 0 losses.
After sending Anne Hathaway home, Liu Xiu returned to the Olympic Village and discussed the performance of the US team with her teammates.
Liu Xiu analyzed: "The U.S. team started very aggressively. We need to withstand their impact in the opening stage when we beat them. In the stalemate stage, they did not play well. When Paul, James, and Wade were the main attackers, did they perform well? We can only see how the three play. Paul is more difficult to deal with. James and Wade, when the opponent emphasizes protecting the frame, they will not be able to do it.
They played against Argentina and led by 19 points in the first quarter, but James and Wade assisted in the second quarter. Regardless of their high shooting percentage, the US team only had 22 points in the second quarter, and the Argentine team scored 29 points. Only 20 points, Argentina 24 points.
However, Old K’s use of James and Wade was only a surprise scorer. The US team played an advantage in the first quarter.
Wait until the fourth quarter, the combination of Kidd, Kobe, Prince, Anthony, and Kwame Brown played, and they played the Argentine team in a 29-17 single quarter..."
Listening to Liu Xiu's analysis, the pressure on the teammates is much less.
It seems that the US team is not invulnerable.
However, Liu Xiu is still under a lot of pressure, but he enjoys the pressure from the game.
He said that Janeway is just an assault scorer, which is a bit ugly, but James' role in Mengba is the arrow of the starting lineup to attack the opponent's striker defense, and Wade is the sixth man on the bench to provide fire support. It doesn't work, but which team will put the burden of the crunch time on the Arrows and the Sixth Man?
These two people have completed the task arranged by the old coach K to the extreme.
The U.S. team lacks offensive ability inside, but they have the most terrifying outside firepower and mid-range singles.
At the critical moment, Kidd's steady catch three-pointer, combing the ball, coupled with Kobe and Anthony, and Kwame Brown who can help support and make mid-range shots, is simply invincible.
If I knew it earlier, I would not have paid so much attention to the cultivation of parallel import champions. God knows that this guy has been useless in the Wizards for three years, and there are still so many talents to dig.
But don’t worry too much for the time being. We won’t meet the US team in the quarterfinals, so we’ll talk about it later.
The Puerto Rico team did not enter the Olympics this time, which made Liu Xiu somewhat regretful...
…
The Lithuanian team beat the Croatian team in the last game, and all the group matches were finished.
The teams that advanced to Group A: the United States first, Argentina second, Lithuania third, and Croatia fourth.
Iran and Angola are out.
The teams that advance to Group B: China is first, Spain is second, Greece is third, and Germany is fourth.
Australia and Russia are out.
After the promotion list came out, the Russian team sparked heated discussions.
Watching the Russian team's game, I feel that the Russian team is not weak. It needs stars, tactics, and tacit understanding... But no one can beat it. When stars need to stand up and score, they need to continuously fight offensively or defensively. In time, they soften.
Early the next morning, the Chinese team began to prepare for the match against Croatia.
In the middle of the training, the staff sent the schedule for tomorrow's game.
Liu Xiu looked at the game arrangement.
At 9:00 in the morning, the Argentine team played the Greek team.
Liu Xiu estimated that the Greek team would be very angry with this arrangement, which was purely to accommodate the Argentine fans.
But there is no way. Compared with Greece, Argentina’s basketball market is much better. Moreover, although Argentines don’t have much savings, they are willing to spend money if they have money.
Greeks are now reluctant to spend money even though they have no savings...the country is almost bankrupt.
The match between the Chinese team and the Croatian team started at 3:30 pm.
At this time, Liu Xiu thinks it is better than the prime time at 8 pm.
At 8 o’clock in the evening, the prime time, if you are a married male fan, it is difficult to grab the remote control from your wife. In recent years, kimchi cancer and car accidents have been rampant...
It is arranged in the afternoon when school (off work) is about to leave. I don’t know how many people will skip class (skip class).
At 8 p.m., the U.S. team plays Germany, and at 10:15 p.m., Spain plays Lithuania.
August 20th, the first competition day of the finals arrived.
Liu Xiu didn’t watch the game between Argentina and Greece at 9 o’clock in the morning. They were still making final preparations before the game. Anyway, the last news they got was that the two teams were about to fight.
In the end, the Argentine team relied on Scola's 29 points in a single game to defeat the Greek team 59 to 55 and entered the semi-finals in a thrilling manner.
Liu Xiu has a little bit of regret. According to the rules, if the Greek team wins, then the opponent of the US team in the semi-finals will be the Greek team, so that they can also taste the fighting power of the Spartans.
But in that case, according to the rules, my side has to play the winner of the Spanish team and the Lithuanian team... Liu Xiu thinks it is not easy to play.
But it’s not easy to play against the Argentine team in the semi-finals...
When there are only 4 teams left, it seems difficult to beat anyone.
Thinking about it this way, Liu Xiu relaxed instead, hitting anyone is not hitting.
As soon as 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the Chinese team served dinner.
Liu Xiu wanted to say that there is no need to accommodate him in this way, but everyone was willing to give him enough time to take a nap for an hour, and he couldn't say no to it.
Anyway, it's not a big deal, he chose to enjoy this little preferential treatment.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, the match between the Chinese team and the Croatian team started.
The Chinese team strictly implemented the established strategy—go all out, play steadily, and beat the Croatian team with strength.
Although he was also a member of the former Yusers League, Croatia left the Yusers League very early and did not experience the greatness of the Yusher League in the basketball world a few years ago at the turn of the century. The strength is not very strong, and being able to enter the finals is purely a matter of course. Because in Group A.
Zoran Planinic, Mark Popovich, and Roko Ukic are the three strongest stars of the Croatian team. They caused some troubles for the Chinese team during the game, but the Chinese team executed steadily Offensive tactics, defense around Yao Ming and Liu Xiu...
Relying on Liu Xiu's 18 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals, Yao Ming's 25 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, Wang Zhizhi's 11 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, Zhu Fangyu's 16 points...The Chinese team defeated the Croatian team 106-85 to advance to the semi-finals!
Advance steadily! Liu Xiu and his teammates celebrated. They were not very excited at first, but this is the atmosphere of the home court every day, and they also cheered up with the fans.
It was only the quarter-finals, and there were fans holding up slogans saying "We owe Pian"...Anyway, Liu Xiu still felt very excited watching it.
After the celebration, Liu Xiu had an unexpected situation—several players from the Croatian team surrounded him.
The players of the Chinese team are gearing up and trying to restrain themselves.
At the door of the house, you can't hit the guests, you can't hit...
Liu Xiu stepped forward, but before he could ask a question, something even more unexpected happened...
A group of people from the Croatian team took out posters, jerseys, and Polaroids to Liu Xiu, asking for autographs and group photos!
