Chapter 740 Qualifying
No one realized that this defensive counterattack would be a turning point in the entire game.The audience certainly didn't think of it, the Venezuelans didn't think of it, and neither did Li Nan and his players.After this round, the Tianchao team gradually took the initiative of the game.
After An Luo hit a three-pointer, he tied the score to 20:22.The 5 points they trailed in the first quarter is indeed not a difficult thing to deal with.
Looking back, Venezuela's No. 7 pushed the ball to the top of the arc again.Zhao Jiwei's defense is not particularly strong, but he has always maintained the best defensive position, constantly exerting pressure on the opponent, and there is no extra movement in his hands.Such a defense may not have a very obvious effect, but one advantage is that it is not easy to make mistakes.In a game, it is easy to not make mistakes in a round, and anyone can do it.But it is a great skill to insist on not making mistakes throughout a game.
After several attempts, player No. 7 gave up his plan to pass Zhao Jiwei, and reached out to greet his teammates.In a basketball game, the vast majority of the time there is no need for a single person to resolve a fight.Especially in a time like the first half of the game, it is far from star basketball.
However, although the No. 7 player successfully got rid of Zhao Jiwei's defense through the pick-and-roll of his teammates, he once again fell into the double-teaming of the Chinese players.It stands to reason that after experiencing the previous double-team, he would handle the ball more easily.But this player made a mistake this time. He passed the ball directly to the arms of Abdul Saramu who came out from the baseline.
Such a mistake is a free opportunity for the Tianchao men's basketball team to tie the score.Abdul Saramu rushed to the basket with the ball by himself and easily completed a two-handed dunk.
22:22
The two sides are tied!
At this time, the head coach of Venezuela was very angry!Mistakes are nothing, any player makes mistakes in the game.But the consecutive offenses were not successful, and they made mistakes, which was very annoying.However, he still held back his temper and gave up his plan to stop the game immediately.After all, the second quarter has just started, and the score is also a tie.
Over the next few minutes, Venezuela's offensive finally paid off.They played more patiently. When the pick-and-roll cooperated, the ball handler was more decisive. Basically, they didn't wait for the opponent to switch defenses before looking for the ball receiver.This is a test of the tacit understanding of the players, but it is not a problem at all for the Venezuelan players.
However, the situation of the game slowly developed towards the Tianchao team.Although the score was not opened up too much by the Tianchao team, compared to Venezuela's difficulties, the Tianchao team's offense seemed much easier.More importantly, An Luo opened up from beyond the three-point line.
After the Venezuelan players expended a lot of energy to score, An Luo turned around and hit a three-pointer.This has a great impact on both the situation of the game and the morale of the players.What's more, An Luo made several shots like this!But whenever Venezuela's toughness is a little weaker, or the desire to win is a little weaker, the Chinese men's basketball team has already gained a great advantage.
After 5 minutes of the second quarter, Li Nan sent Yi Jianlian to the court. He was already the last player in the starting lineup of the Tianchao men's basketball team who was still resting.Meanwhile, Venezuela's starters were all out.At this time, the game finally entered a more exciting stage.
After all the starters from both sides re-appeared, the game was indeed better than the first half.But the situation has not changed much.Several Venezuelan forwards are still active in various areas, whether it is offensive or defensive, they have played very well.It's a pity that the Tianchao team's offense was more determined than in the first quarter.They are still based on Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi, and Li Nan is still more willing to believe in the advantages of the inside line in his lineup.However, An Luo is the most active player on the offensive end of the Tianchao men's basketball team.After all, although the Twin Towers have obvious advantages, their advantages can only be better reflected in the basket.Relatively speaking, it is easier to defend.But An Luo is different!For him, there is no specific offensive position.From the three-point line to the basket, it is his scoring range.Moreover, he has been running non-stop all the time, coupled with the cover of the Chinese players on the way, the Venezuelan players are overwhelmed, which gave An Luo many opportunities.
There is no good way to deal with the Tianchao men's basketball team on the defensive end, and Venezuela also has problems on the offensive end.Their offensive tactics have not changed much, and opportunities can be played, but the shooting percentage has decreased.The impact of the shooting rate on the game is too great. No matter how advanced the tactics are, how tacit cooperation is, after all, it is necessary to shoot the ball into the basket.If you don't invest, everything is useless.
That's where Venezuela's problems lie.Their lineup basically gave up the low-post offense, but after the shooting rate dropped, they couldn't control the rebounds, and they couldn't cause damage in the penalty area. After all, the twin towers of the Celestial Dynasty were there.
In this way, the situation of the game developed in the direction of making more use of the Tianchao men's basketball team.Until the second half, nothing changed.Venezuela tried to make some changes in the third quarter of the game. They gave up the tactics they had been insisting on and put their center back on the court.The situation has indeed improved somewhat, but Venezuela's inside players are also at a disadvantage against the big men of the Shang Dynasty.
The cheers from Wukesong Stadium are getting louder and louder!Seeing the point difference on the field being widened by their own team, these fans have no reason not to be happy.This is not only because of the qualifying of the group, nor is it just the qualification for the Olympic Games. This means that the Tianchao men's basketball team has stood up again after experiencing a long period of low ebb.Although this is the first stage of the group stage, it is still far from the peak level of the Tianchao men's basketball team, but compared with the last World Cup and the last Olympic Games, everyone is quite satisfied!
In the end, the Venezuelan men's basketball team lost the game.They can only participate in the subsequent 17-32 qualifying rounds.As the winner, the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team will enter the second stage of the group stage with an advantage of 1 victory.
