king of defenders

Chapter 691 The Olympics are Coming!

After the warm-up match with the US team, the Chinese team will rest for a week, and then rush to Rio, Brazil, to prepare for the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Gong Luming grasped the time very tightly, and made full use of the time of the week to formulate a new special training plan for a period of one week, hoping to allow the players to make some progress.

In the training base, the Chinese team is conducting intra-team confrontation training, a 5-on-5 confrontation. Meng Yun, Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi, Ding Yanyuhang, and Li Gen are divided into a group.

This lineup is the regular main lineup of the Chinese team.

Of course, just like the time against the US team, the main lineup is not static and will be adjusted at any time as the game changes and the opponents are different.There is no such thing as the best team, and all lineups are in line with the times, whether in the international arena or in the NBA.

"Yes, cover for Meng Yun." Coach Gong Luming stood on the sidelines and shouted towards the field: "Others must move, pass the ball, take the initiative to catch the ball, don't stand there and wait for the ball. "

On the court, Yi Jianlian made a pick-and-roll for Meng Yun. Meng Yun threw off the defender and came to the outside to catch the ball. The defender quickly changed defenses, but at the same time, Meng Yun and others on his side were also moving. The defense line was torn apart, and after the teammate passed the ball, everyone's attention was focused on Meng Yun, but the inside line was empty. Meng Yun made a fake pass, and the angle of the pass was very tricky. It was a ground pass. , passed through the crowd and fell into the hands of Ding Yanyuhang under the basket.

At some point, Ding Yanyuhang quietly slipped to the basket, and it was too late for the defender to react.

Ding Yanyuhang jumped up with a two-handed dunk.

Since Meng Yun joined the national team, the Chinese team's style of play has become much tougher. In the past, many times they could layup but not dunk, but now they can dunk but not layup.

This is of course a good thing. Playing with European and American teams requires a tough style of play. The weaker you are, the more they think you are easy to bully, and the softer you play, the more careful you play, and the harder you play.

"Well, the tactic was executed well this time." Gong Luming nodded secretly. The goal was scored by Ding Yanyuhang, but the tactic was actually executed around Meng Yun.

After returning from the United States this time, in addition to summarizing, Gong Luming made it clear that he truly established Meng Yun's position as the core of the team, and formulated some tactics around Meng Yun, with Meng Yun as the core of the tactics.

After some experiments, Gong Luming found that the effect was not bad. Meng Yun's strength is outstanding, and he is not a pure scorer, he is a point guard. He has excellent scoring ability and excellent overall situation view. Vision, passing skills, can revitalize the team as a whole.

Just like the ball just now, Meng Yun could actually hit it by himself, but when Ding Yan Yuhang saw an opportunity, he decisively chose to pass the ball, and he passed the ball through the gap between people, with a tricky angle and just right.

If it was a different person, I am afraid that even if they saw the opportunity, they would not be able to spread such a wonderful pass.

"Shh!"

A soft sound came from the field.

This time it was Yi Jianlian who scored, and he also used Meng Yun to attract the defense and open up space, allowing him to get enough singles opportunities and succeed in singles.

Gong Luming was in a good mood. This was the role of Meng Yun. The tactics centered on Meng Yun were not to let Meng Yun score, but to use Meng Yun's ability to let the team score.Since the team scores, it doesn't matter whether Meng Yun scores by himself or creates opportunities for teammates to score, as long as they can score.

What made Gong Luming most gratified was Meng Yun's basketball IQ and maturity. Originally, he was very worried about Meng Yun. Meng Yun's personal ability was unquestionable, but he was only in his early twenties after all. With his personal ability, it is easy to get lost in the sense of accomplishment of personal scoring on the court.

But Meng Yun didn't. He seemed very mature and always put the overall situation first.

This surprised Gong Luming and heaved a sigh of relief. It would be too wasteful to use Meng Yun's role only for scoring, and the effect may not be good. The Chinese team has been extremely weak for a long time. Compared with European and American teams It seems that there is a gap in the personal abilities of the players. No matter how good Meng Yun is, he can't do it alone.

The best way is to use Meng Yun as the core to unite the players to form an organic whole and produce a chain reaction, which is what we often call "chemical reaction between players".

Only by improving the overall strength of the team can it compete with those European and American teams.

After some training, Gong Luming called everyone together, analyzed the game just now, summed up the gains and losses, and then made revisions and adjustments
One week is really a bit tight, Gong Luming wished for another month, even half a month, but unfortunately not.

Time passed quickly. In August, the Olympic Games was approaching. The Chinese men's basketball team, as well as Chinese teams from various sports, set off for Rio, Brazil.

After arriving in Brazil, the players realized that the conditions in the Olympic Village were really unsatisfactory, especially the accommodation conditions. Several people were crowded into a dormitory, the beds were still very narrow, and their legs could not be straightened.

Guo Ailun complained a few words, but seeing that Meng Yun didn't say anything, they shut their mouths.

Even here, Gong Luming didn't intend to let everyone rest. After a simple repair, he took the team to the training arena prepared by the organizer. However, the conditions in Rio are limited, and the accommodation conditions are the same. A separate indoor arena for your training sessions?Stop dreaming.

The organizer gave a training arena, which is new, but it is shared by two teams. In addition to the Chinese team, there is also the Venezuelan team.

Seeing the players of the Chinese team, the faces of the Venezuelan team were a little cold.

Meng Yundao: "Why do I feel that their eyes are a little resentful?"

Guo Ailun said with a smile: "It's not my fault. Originally, our Chinese team was at the bottom of Group A. But now that you have joined us, our strength has greatly increased. In this way, the bottom of Group A has become Venezuela. Do you think they can not hold grudges? I guess they grit their teeth against you now."

The six teams in Group A were originally divided into three tiers. The first tier is the US team, the second tier is France, Serbia, and Australia, and the third tier is China and Venezuela.

In fact, Venezuela also has a little bit of ambition. They decided that they will definitely win the Chinese team. As long as they can win one of the other four games, they will have a chance to qualify for the group stage.

But now
With Meng Yun joining the Chinese team, the Chinese team defeated Canada in the warm-up match some time ago, and lost 30 points in one game and 34 points in the other two games with the US team. It can be seen that the strength of the Chinese team has improved a lot , It has even surpassed Venezuela, and Venezuela's ambition was killed before it sprouted.

So they are really not happy to see the Chinese team.

"Oh..." Meng Yun withdrew his gaze, so what if Venezuela gritted his teeth in hatred?Seriously, he really doesn't care much about Venezuela.
