Basketball Myth: Super Guard

On August 26, the China Men’s Basketball Team ushered in its second warm-up match—the opponent was the Iranian team.

The Chinese men's basketball team is no stranger to the Iranian team. The two sides only played against each other in last year's Asian Championship, and it was in the final of the Asian Championship.

Because Qin Hao and Yao Ming did not participate in last year's Asian Championship, the outside world has doubts about the Chinese men's basketball team. More people are optimistic about the Iranian team, believing that the Iranian team is stronger and the most promising team to win the Asian Championship. .

But in the end, the Iranian team was defeated by the Chinese men's basketball team.

This time the two sides met again. Although it was just a warm-up match, the Iranian team also wanted to compete with the Chinese Men's Basketball Team and try to win the game, which was also a consolation.

It's a pity that the Chinese Men's Basketball Team didn't even give them comfort.

After all, the Chinese men's basketball team now has a complete lineup. Qin Hao and Yao Ming have returned. It would be a shame if the Iranian team couldn't even win.

Warm-ups are warm-ups, games are games.

So we still have to win.

From the beginning of the game, the Iranian team played very seriously and wanted to gain the upper hand, but it was a pity that the strength gap was there. The Iranian team's biggest reliance was center Haddadi. It can be said that Haddadi played very well in last year's Asian Championships. Yi Jianlian also I suffered a lot at his hands.

But today I faced Yao Ming.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Haddadi's shot was blocked by Yao Ming, but he recovered the ball himself, pushed Yao Ming with his back, tried to squeeze out the space, raised the ball with his right hand, and used a small throw. Possible circumvention of blocking.

Snapped!

There was another crisp sound, and Haddadi was filled with grief and anger, but he didn't expect to be blocked by Yao Ming.

"Fast attack."

This time the Iranian team failed to get the rebound. Yi Jianlian grabbed the rebound and immediately handed it to Qin Hao. Qin Hao quickly counterattacked. After reaching the frontcourt, he passed the ball from behind to Sun Yue who followed up. A slam dunk.

Another two points.

"The gap is too obvious."

"We're not on the same level at all. We'll probably win this game by another twenty points."

In the auditorium, fans admired and whispered.

The Chinese men's basketball team with Qin Hao and Yao Ming and the Chinese men's basketball team without them are completely different concepts. What's more, with Yao Ming here, it can be said that the Iranian team is eaten to death. Haddadi's point was completely destroyed by Yao Ming, and the Iranian team was finished.

When the first half ended, the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team was already leading by more than ten points.

After entering the second half, the Iranian team gave up its struggle, which made Qin Hao feel a little bored. It seemed that he still had to wait until the Men's Basketball World Cup to play well.

The entire second half turned into training again. Qin Hao didn't play much in the second half, but a few young players played more. Wang Zhelin, Zhou Qi and others also got a lot of playing time.

By the end of the game, the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team led by 21 points.

A group of Iranian team players were devastated. You should know that Qin Hao and Yao Ming didn't play much in the second half, but even so, the China Men's Basketball Team still won by 21 points.

"It seems that the Chinese men's basketball team is stronger than last year."

"Yes, they are stronger than last year's Asian Championships. Jiang Feng and Wang Lei have improved a lot compared to last year."

"There are several other young people who have also made progress..."

A group of Iranian team players whispered, and couldn't help but feel a little lucky that they would not be paired with the Chinese Men's Basketball Team in the Men's Basketball World Cup.

But they soon realized that although they avoided the China Men's Basketball Team, they were in Group A with Spain, France, Serbia, Brazil and other teams.

This... seems like it might as well be in Group B with the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team. At least the other teams in Group B except the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team are not that strong.

...

The next day, the China Men's Basketball Team ushered in the third warm-up match, against the Ukrainian team.

Ukraine's strength is average, not even as good as Iran's, so this game is very dull. It lost the suspense early and was just a simple training exercise.

Finally, at the end of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Ukraine 89:66 and won three consecutive warm-up matches.

After the game, the Chinese men's basketball team boarded the plane and rushed to Spain.

...

at the same time.

In the United States, a group of tall people came to the airport and boarded a charter flight to fly to Spain - it was the American men's basketball dream team.

This time the old coach K is still leading the team.

The player lineup is led by Derrick Rose, and also includes Stephen Curry, Kyrie Irving, Klay Thompson, Paul George, DeMar DeRozan, James Harden, Kenneth Farry Germany, DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, Rudy Gay, Andre Drummond.

Although this Dream Team does not have James, nor Paul, Wade, Anthony, Durant and other stars, the lineup is still gorgeous.

Rose, Curry, Irving, George, Harden, Davis, these are all players who have been selected to the All-Star team, especially Rose, who is even more of a superstar.

And the remaining Cousins, DeRozan, Gay, Drummond and others are not weak either.

I have to say that the background of the Dream Team is very scary. Even if none of the Four Heroes of the Storm come, and both Thunder Young Masters are absent, the lineup is still very scary.

A group of people boarded the plane and started chatting in the cabin...

Brazil.

A plane carrying the players of the Brazilian men's basketball national team, as well as the coaching staff and other members took off and soared into the sky.

In the cabin, some people were closing their eyes to relax, some were listening to music, and some were chatting with the people around them.

And Qin Hao's teammate, 76ers center Nene, was among them.

Last summer, Brazil's top four NBA players Split, Barbosa, Nene and Varejao collectively missed the U.S. Championship. As a result, Brazil was severely stretched and ranked ninth with 0 wins and 4 losses, and did not receive a direct award. Ticket to qualify for the World Cup.

Fortunately, Brazil successfully applied for a wild card and was able to participate in the Men's Basketball World Cup.

This opportunity was hard-won, and they didn't want to waste it, so this time they called back Barbosa, Nene, Varejao, and Split.

However, this time the Brazilian team is placed in Group A, with the host Spain, France, Serbia, Iran and other teams, so the competition will be particularly fierce.

...

Spain.

While the players of the French team were sitting on the plane, the players of their opponent, the host Spanish team, were still training in the gym.

This time the game is at home, which is of great significance to the Spanish team, so they not only started training early, but also mobilized all the available personnel.

On the inside, they formed a luxurious lineup of the Gasol brothers + Ibaka. On the outside, they also have the two NBA backcourts of Rubio and Calderon, plus the "bombs" Navarro and Rodriguez who have played in the NBA. , Fernandez, and Sergio Llull, who was selected in the NBA draft but never went to the NBA, the lineup is very luxurious.

Teams are rushing to Spain one after another, and the World Cup is about to kick off...
