NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 189
After Kumbu met with Kirilenko, he thought of Ginobili again.

The lineup I formed this year is actually quite weird. There are three players in the starting lineup that need to negotiate a buyout with the original home team.

Fortunately, the most important thing Yao Ming has been resolved, and then Kirilenko and Ginobili are waiting.

Before he left Philadelphia, he gave Billy King a job to contact Ginobili to get the buyout done early.

……

On September 9, the group match schedule officially started.

The Tianchao men's basketball team had a game that night against New Zealand.

Kong Bu didn't hide it either, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, he immediately showed the strongest combat power of the Chinese men's basketball team.

Center Yao Ming, power forward Daba, small forward Dazhi, shooting guard Hu Weidong, and point guard Ah Lian.

This lineup is indescribably uncomfortable, and it makes the opponent uncomfortable, and the average height is really ridiculously high.

The shortest Hu Weidong is 198 cm tall, and the other four are all inside heights.

Especially seeing that the United Arab Emirates played as the starting No. [-], the fans around the world who were on the scene and watching the live broadcast were all speechless.

208 cm point guard?New Zealand's main controller is only 181 centimeters. Standing together, these two are like adults beating elementary school students.

But fans also know that the taller is not the better on the basketball court.

If it is true that the taller the better, the Nets had traded the No. 231 pick to George Muresan with a height of [-] centimeters before the Nets, and Comb would not refuse it.

No one can tell exactly what kind of performance this immature but surprisingly tall point guard can play.

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began.

Da Zhi stepped forward to jump the ball and easily jumped to win.

After Ah Lian got the ball, Da Zhi yelled, "Hit it yourself!"

The bus helped UAE squeeze away New Zealand's inside line at the basket, and then UAE, at a speed that did not match its height, carried the opposing small point guard towards the basket to kill.

When he was one step away from the free throw line, he jumped up, almost flying over the head of the little point guard, and dunked the ball hard into the basket.

Kong Bu couldn't laugh or cry, is this too bullying?

It's kind of like the Greek monster Alphabet Brother.

Antetokounmpo encountered this kind of small point guard of 181 cm in his peak period. As long as the opponent dared to come up to match, he could really fly over the opponent's head and dunk.

It's a pity that when Antetokounmpo was at his peak, it was already difficult to find a point guard under 190 cm in height in the league.

"hiss!"

The Sydney fans at the scene gasped.

What kind of monster is this?Riding on the opponent as soon as you come up?Is there any reason.

The young New Zealand point guard is red-faced. The opponent seems to be [-] centimeters taller than him. What's even more outrageous is that he seems to be running faster and jumping higher than himself. How can he play this ball?
When it came to New Zealand's offensive round, they missed a shot and the rebound was taken away by the bus.

The bus passed the ball directly to the UAE.

After arriving in the frontcourt, Ah Lian began to hit his opponent with his back. The scene looked a little funny and a little cruel.

It was another step away from the free throw line, and he turned over directly, looking like he was about to make a mid-range shot.

As a result, he didn't shoot again, but passed the ball to the bus under the basket.

The bus was stunned, glanced at the basketball in his hand, and was not interested in attacking, so he passed it to Yao Ming.

Yao Ming stood on tiptoe under the basket and stuffed the ball into the basket effortlessly.

It wasn't a buckle or a shot, but it was stuffed into the basket. It looked like an understatement, like a housewife stepping on a bottle of soy sauce in the cabinet.

Before coming to Sydney, Da Zhi, Da Ba and Lao Hu had already made an agreement to give Yao Ming and Ah Lian the opportunity to perform.

The three of them still need to show their abilities.

It was New Zealand's offensive round again. This time, the UAE had an overwhelming cap, slapped the opponent's shooting guard, and was able to control the ball one step ahead.

The jumping height when blocking the shot, as well as the flexibility and speed of grabbing the ball after blocking the block, once again made everyone dumbfounded.

This is definitely a monster!

How could a big man with a height of nearly 210 cm have such a physical condition?
After grabbing the ball, Ah Lian directly rushed towards the frontcourt with the ball alone.

The reason why Antetokounmpo's breakthrough is so terrifying is because his steps are much larger than ordinary people. He only needs one step to start a three-step layup from the midfield line!
Although the UAE has not yet made great strides, its pace is also extremely astonishing.

A short man's two steps may not be as big as his one step.

Throwing the little point guard behind him, Ah Lian rushed to the basket, and a powerful dunk detonated the scene again.

Generally, FIBA ​​games are not very enjoyable to watch, unless it is a dream team game, there will be a lot of dunks.

But not long after the opening, the United Arab Emirates contributed such a slam dunk, and the fans felt that the ticket was worth it.

"Who is this person? Why have you never heard of it?!"

Stern, who is far away in New York, is also following the Chinese men's basketball game.

Ah Lian's performance directly shocked him.

"It seems to be called Yi. He is a player from Kongbu's CBA team. They are still arguing about it in China."

"I feel that this Yi is not qualified to be a national team player. Now it seems that he is too qualified."

Stu did not know how to appear at the NBA headquarters in New York.

"What a monster!"

"It doesn't feel like this guy is a player of our time, but a player of the future world."

"He seems to be 16 years old, and he can enter the league in two or three years. God, I can't imagine how crazy the league will be for him by then."

Stu continued to say with emotion.

It has to be said that Stu's vision is still good, and the style of play of the United Arab Emirates really does not belong to this era.

Antetokounmpo is a product of the reverse era of the small ball era. In the small ball era without a basket, it stands to reason that he cannot survive at all.

But relying on his terrifying physical fitness, he managed to survive, and he survived very well.

"Who is this person? I want all the information about this person!"

"Damn it, how many heaven-defying players does Kumbu hide? Why haven't I heard of this guy before?"

"No, I have to maintain the habit of calling Combe every week, and try to trick him more."

Old Thomas couldn't sit still watching the game.

"This kid looks like an alien. This kind of athletic talent doesn't look like a person on Earth at all."

"He's 16? Well, maybe in 2003."

"Smash it! Smash it!"

……

New Zealand still missed the offensive round, and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.

After Ah Lian took the ball to the frontcourt, he jumped up and passed it directly to Yao Ming this time.

The New Zealand players were about to cry. They also saw the intention of the United Arab Emirates to make a pass, but unfortunately there was nothing they could do about him.

Who can intercept the ball from the height at which UAE jumped up and passed the ball?
And he passed it to Yao Ming. With Yao Ming's height, ordinary center forwards can't do anything about him.

It's such a straight pass, the opponent can only watch helplessly.

Yao Ming received the pass comfortably, then faked his opponent, and threw the ball into the basket with a stride.

With this round of offensive proofing, Ah Lian and Yao Ming glanced at each other, and then laughed. They seemed to have found a combination of killing skills.

In the next round, the two cooperated in the same way, turning New Zealand's killer on his back, unable to parry at all.

During the 10-minute game, when the referee blew the whistle to end the game, both Ah Lian and Yao Ming played for 32 minutes.

其中阿联入账了33分10篮板14助攻5盖帽3抢断的全能数据。

Yao Ming had 40 points, 19 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks.

Not only did the two score a lot, but their shooting percentage was also extremely terrifying, especially Yao Ming, who scored 25 points in only 40 shots.

Dazhi and Daba just played soy sauce casually on the court, and they didn't even put in much effort on the defensive end.

The main reason is that the opponent is too weak. If they really try their best to defend, New Zealand will lose in an ugly way.

In the final score of 97:66, even if the two didn't exert much effort, they still won by 31 points relying on the combination of Yao Ming and Ah Lian.

After the game ended, the New Zealand players didn't feel anything.

After all, they were the weakest in Group A. It was expected that they would lose to the Chinese men's basketball team led by Kongbu.

Even if Yao Ming is a rookie and Ah Lian is an unknown player, this Chinese men's basketball team still has two first-tier stars, Dazhi and Daba, which are much stronger than New Zealand's overall combat power.

They didn't think there was anything wrong with losing, but the Dream Team was dumbfounded.

The pressure suddenly came to Tang Shuai.

Tang Shuai is the leading coach of this dream team.

Generally, the coach of the dream team will not have any pressure. With a large number of top NBA stars in hand, can this lose?
But after watching the Tianchao men's basketball game, Tang Shuai's heart thumped.

It is really that the performance of the two rookies, Yao Ming and Ah Lian, is a bit against the sky, so bad that Tang Shuai has no confidence in winning the Tianchao men's basketball team.

As for the center, Tang Shuai brought Mourning and McDyess as centers this time.

Both centers have one characteristic, that is, they are short.

Of course, short centers do not mean that they are really useless, but with the same skills, tall centers must have an advantage, because they are closer to the basket, and they have more advantages in rebounding and offense.

Yao Ming's footsteps around the basket and small hooks shown in this game are extremely mature and definitely not half-baked.

Tang Shuai can be sure that if McDyess is allowed to face Yao Ming alone, he will be humiliated and completely tyrannical by Yao Ming.

As for whether Mourning will be at a disadvantage against Yao Ming, Tang Shuai doesn't know, but he knows that Mourning will definitely not get an advantage.

It's really not that Tang Shuai underestimated himself. Even Kong Bu didn't think Mourning would be Yao Ming's opponent at his peak.

In fact, Mourning can be regarded as another version of Warcraft Howard. The two have too much in common.

During the peak period, Howard would be deflated when he met Yao Ming. How could Mourning gain an advantage over Yao Ming.

The inside line is not what Tang Shuai is most worried about, he is most worried about the No. [-] position.

There are a lot of point guards brought in this time, but there seems to be none that are suitable to be used against the United Arab Emirates.

You can't let the 178 cm flying mouse go against the 208 cm Ah Lian?

Kidd is fine, but judging from tonight's game, the United Arab Emirates is very strong. Given the height gap between the two sides, Kidd might not be able to handle Kidd.

In addition, it's not that the UAE can't pass the ball. After jumping up, the field of vision for passing the ball is more than a wide range. If it is passed to Big Zhi, the Dream Team will have nothing to do with Big Zhi.

Tang Shuai also didn't have a good way to solve the big Zhi point.

Tang Shuai is very distressed now. If he really loses to Kongbu's Tianchao men's basketball team, then he will become a joke in the history of the old handsome men's basketball team.

……

The second game of the Tianchao men's basketball team was against Italy.

If the first game against New Zealand, Kumbu is still in the groping stage, then in the second game Konbu has already found a very suitable style of play for this Chinese men's basketball team.

Pass high and play high.

No matter which team they are playing against, the starting lineup of the Tianchao men's basketball team has reached the point of crushing the opponent.

In this case, if the height of the pass is increased, it will be difficult for the opponent to resist the pass of the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team.

As long as the ball can be transferred, no matter if it is Yao Ming and Daba at the basket, or Da Zhi and Ah Lian on the outside, they can find a comfortable shooting position.

In this game against Italy, the Tianchao men's basketball team won by 37 points.

The two opponents at the beginning of the game were not strong. In fact, even without the involvement of Kumbu, under normal circumstances, the Chinese men's basketball team participated in the Sydney Olympics and won New Zealand and Italy in the group stage.

It's just that they only won these two games in the group stage.

The next third game will be against Lithuania, and Kumbu still attaches great importance to this game.

Lithuania is very strong, and almost brought down the dream team in this Olympic Games. Their lineup has the twin towers of the old Sabonis and the big Z Ilgauskas.

In addition to the Twin Towers, although some outside players did not play in the NBA, their strength must be at the NBA level. If the hand feels overwhelming, even NBA stars have no good way to take them.

Not only Kumbu attaches great importance to it, fans also look forward to Yao Ming's performance against Ilgauskas.

Big Z participated in the draft in 96. In fact, he didn't play many games in the NBA these years, but he still signed a maximum salary.

Being able to sign a maximum salary, and the outside world didn't have much criticism for this signing. No one ridiculed the Cavaliers for being stupid and rich. In fact, it is enough to prove that Big Z has the strength of a maximum salary center.

Yao Ming is about to enter the league, and he will be compared with many first-line centers. Of course, Big Z is one of the objects of comparison.

But when the game started at night, Kumbu was stunned.

Neither Big Z nor Sabonis was seen, neither of them played.

Kumbu didn't even know any of the remaining Lithuanian players. He couldn't help wondering how such a lineup almost killed the dream team.

Yao Ming is also full of disappointment. His idol is the old Sabonis. He has long been looking forward to competing with Lao Sabonis in the Olympic Games.

It's a pity that there is no chance to fight this time, and it is impossible to fight in the Olympics in the future.

In the first half, the Tianchao men's basketball team played against Lithuania, and the advantage was very obvious. However, in the second half, Lithuania's outside line found a touch and stabilized the situation.

In the end, the Tianchao men's basketball team only won by eleven points.

Although this country is not very good, the strength of the players in this country is still good. There is not a single star in the team, but it is really admirable to be able to play like this with the Dream Team or the Chinese Men's Basketball Team.

France, which fought in the fourth game, won more easily this time.

After four games, the Tianchao men's basketball team was able to win their opponents by 23 points per game, which was even higher than the average goal difference of the Dream Team.
