Chapter 1389 Tian (Gua) Yi (Bi) Combination

Leonard also had additional penalties, and the US team scored 5 points in a row after the start.

"Come on! Team China!"

The start was bad, and the Chinese fans present took the initiative to cheer for the Chinese team.

However, the U.S. team's defense was impenetrable. After Tang Tian was forced to pass the ball again, Ding Yanyuhang's emergency stop was interfered by James.

The Chinese team's offense is still not there!

Durant played again in the frontcourt, this time he shot and caused a thug foul by Ding Yanyuhang.

Li Chunjiang stood on the sidelines and scolded his mother for a while, but his expression was a little helpless.

The addition of James and Davis has greatly improved the offensive and defensive capabilities of the US team.

Durant made two free throws against the interference.

7 to 0!

The US team gave the Chinese team a disarm at the start.

Tang Tian held the ball and pushed forward again. At this time, he changed his attack method, gave the ball to Ding Yan Yuhang, and started running without the ball.

Originally, after touching the heads of the players one by one at the beginning, he wanted to use the sudden score to play, but the US team did a good job of assisting defense, because the 10% stability brought by the "Stone Buddha" did not work.

In other words, apart from him, everyone else including Lin Yi is suppressed in the matchup, and he can only switch from organizing to scoring.

He opened up a more defensive defense to revitalize the team.

Just like he did in the World Cup last year.

The ball came out of the running, against James' emergency stop and pull.

"Shua!"

The basketball hit the net.

The touch before the game also included self-touch, Tang Tian's shooting was still as stable as before.

This ball finally helped the Chinese team break the scoring drought on the court.

But looking back, Durant broke through Ding Yanyuhang, broke through Lin Yi's defense, and then gave the ball to Davis under the basket. Davis dunked with both hands!

The Chinese team played against this American team. It felt like the Japanese team played against the Chinese team before. It was difficult to limit the offensive of the American team on the defensive end!

This also became the epitome of the first quarter of the game.

The US team blossomed more, while the Chinese team relied more on Tang Tian's personal scoring.

Although Tang Tian scored 13 points efficiently in the first quarter, and his defense improved in the second half, the Chinese team still trailed the US team by 10 points 18-28 in the first quarter.

After the first quarter, American fans on social media had a collective climax.

"This is the real difference in strength between the two teams. It's not that the Chinese team played poorly, it's that our dream team is too strong!"

"When Durant, James and Leonard start together, the opponent's offensive and defensive ends are always misaligned. This is the horror of this dream team!"

"Under the excellent defense rotation, Tang's teammates are no longer miraculous. The Chinese team is doomed to lose this game!"

"I still respect Tang very much, but the basketball game is for five people, and we can finally get back the Olympic champion we lost before!"

"Although we sent the strongest lineup, just like LeBron won the championship with the Heat, people will only remember the championship in the future, not the process."

"Come on, I can't wait to see the Stars and Stripes fly at the Olympics!"

...

At the beginning of the second quarter, the US team had a full bench lineup, Irving, Harden, George, Towns, and Drummond.

This rotation looks stressful.

For the Chinese team, Guo Ailun, Ding Yanyuhang, Zhou Peng, Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi.

The lineups of the two teams seem to be very different in strength, but the scene is not completely one-sided.

The two veterans Yi Jianlian and Zhou Peng set an example, and the players played very hard.

But no matter how hard you fight, the difference in points will still be opened up a little bit.

By the time the main force returned, the Chinese team was already 15 points behind the US team 22 to 37.

Compared with a year ago, the difficulties encountered by the Chinese team tonight are much greater.

"Kobayashi, let's play the pick-and-roll."

When playing, Tang Tian pulled Lin Yi and said.

"But just now the coach told you to play...well, play the pick-and-roll."

Lin Yi reacted very quickly.

"Throw the ball in."

Tang Tian didn't explain much, and directly asked Lin Yi.

Lin Yi nodded quickly.

Davis suppressed him in every aspect except his height, and he had no chance to perform from the beginning to the present.

Tang Tian said this to him alone now, he couldn't wish for it.

After a timeout, the Chinese team's offense came back, and Tang Tian held the ball at the top of the arc and did not attack directly.

After signaling to everyone else to pull away, he asked Lin Yi to pull up to the high position at the top of the arc to do a pick-and-roll.

After blocking it, he dismantled it, and he broke through without any match.

The focus of the US team's defense was on Tang Tian's side. Davis pushed forward and Durant chased behind. The two sandwiched him like a hamburger.

Tang Tian broke through to one step inside the free throw line and lost a good shot.

But he didn't want to make a shot either. He passed the ball behind his back without looking at anyone, and the ball flew directly to Lin Yi at the top of the arc.

The U.S. team's help defense rotated, and James threw himself directly at Lin Yi.

However, Lin Yi was very decisive after receiving the ball, without any hesitation, he shot a three-pointer directly.

James' defense has arrived, but the height gap makes his interference very limited.

"Shua!"

Lin Yi made the first three-pointer of the game!

Tianyi combination!

"pretty!"

Su Qun in the broadcast booth couldn't help shouting.

The rest of the Chinese team scored 5 points together in the first quarter, and now they need others to stand up and score.

Tang Tian also gave Lin Yi a thumbs up while retreating.

This three-pointer is crucial.

Back on the defensive end, Tang Tian also signaled the team to stand in a 2-1-2 zone defense, and he stood at the free throw line.

James organized the free throw line, Leonard who cut the ball into the game with a second pass.

However, Tang Tian quickly touched the ball with his sharp eyes. Although it didn't break, the angle of the ball changed.

Leonard didn't get the ball, but Lin Yi was tall and long, and with a speed he shouldn't have, he grabbed the ball directly.

The Tianyi team played a beautiful offense in front of it, and this time they played a beautiful defense.

And this is also the rare successful defense of the Chinese team tonight.

The U.S. team retreated quickly and did not give the Chinese team a chance to counterattack.

Tang Tian advanced to the frontcourt, still playing the same way as before.

The US team still chose to release Lin Yi and Tang Tian.

Lin Yi's 39% shooting rate so far in the Olympics is already very high for an insider, especially in Olympic-level events.

But such a hit rate is obviously not enough to kill the game, so the US team's strategy is completely fine.

Tang Tian still chose to pass the ball behind his back.

Lin Yi received the ball again, this time James assisted in the defense earlier, and Lin Yi received more defensive interference when he shot.

The Chinese fans at the scene unconsciously tightened their hearts when Lin Yi shot.

Whether this goal can be scored is even more critical than the previous one, because it is likely to change the US team's defensive style.

Popovich also stared at the ball spinning in the air, and he didn't want to be forced to change his defensive style.

"Shua!"

With all the attention, basketball hit the net again!

Lin Yi scored two three-pointers in a row!

Day (gua) easy (bi) combination!
