The invincible kryptonite of basketball

But Yi Jianlian played the ball very quickly, Wu Qian and Zhou Peng seized several outside opportunities, and the Chinese team opened the score in one fell swoop.

In the end, the Chinese team beat Japan 40-20 in the second half and beat their opponent 72-50, winning the warm-up match.

Tang Tian looked at Li Chunjiang again with a hint of approval.

Running-in and inspection in the first half, and winning in the second half.

Playing like this in the warm-up match is of great training value.

Yi Jianlian scored a game-high 19 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks, and was completely crushed in the matchup with Rui Hachimura.

This is also a reasonable thing.

After all, Yi Jianlian has played in the NBA for so many years, and he is still the starting power forward of the Nets. He still averaged 11+7 per game last season.

The Nets made the playoffs last season with fourth place in the Eastern Conference.

Rui Hachimura felt the malice from the NBA, scoring only 11 points and 4 rebounds on 10 of 5 shots.

On the contrary, Yuta Watanabe played well and scored the highest 16 points of the Japanese team. Neither Zhou Peng nor Zhai Xiaochuan could restrain him from the Chinese team.

At the end of the game, the players on both sides returned to the locker room to rest one after another.

Tang Tian also went back to the dressing room together.

After saying hello to the team members, he sat next to Wang Zhelin.

"My lord, pay attention to your positioning when grabbing rebounds. You don't have to get the rebounds, but your people must be stuck."

Tang Tian was giving Wang Zhelin a small talk at this time, talking about some details of the game.

Wang Zhelin nodded again and again. Although he was not talented, his attitude was still very positive.

The other team members gave Wang Zhelin a look of envy.

Although they are all members of the national team, Wang Zhelin is not enviable to be able to get the guidance of No.1 in NBA history.

"Tang Tian is right. You all listen to it. When defending, you have to block people. Don't you block people and just point at the inside to grab rebounds? The rebounds will go into your arms? You get stuck, and the rebounds don't What’s yours is also yours, you hear me?!”

Li Chunjiang said cursingly.

He is really short tempered.

Tang Tian smiled and shook his head.

But at this moment, he noticed that Guo Ailun was not there, looked around and got up and left the locker room.

He specially instructed Wang Zhelin not because of preference, but after Zhou Qi was injured, there was really no one inside.

Today he specially looked at Shen Zijie. He has a good body and a good position, but his offensive skills are relatively rough.

Not to mention Hu Jinqiu and Zhang Zhenlin, one can't bear to fight against the other who can't play at the national team level.

And there was Guo Ailun, whom he was looking for.

He didn't pay attention to it in the past two years. He originally thought that Guo Ailun had grown a lot, but it was still the same as three years ago, and his projection and organization were still unreadable.

It is very important for the defender to tear apart the defense, and he still has a role in this Chinese team.

So he also wants to guide alone.

After looking around, he finally saw Guo Ailun on the field, who was practicing three-pointers.

Guo Ailun's game attitude is actually completely fine, just like Gong Luming's evaluation of him back then, he is a football idiot.

But after watching for a while, Tang Tian couldn't help shaking his head.

Guo Ailun is slowly casting one and then another in the field, just like an old man shopping.

This three-point training method is too backward, or too rough.

When he was still on the Spurs, he needed to practice three-pointers with the ball coming out quickly, and there were obstacles in front of him.

Not to mention the Pelicans afterward, making an in-motion catch-and-shoot three-pointer at Procopio's behest.

Not to mention the strength, but the training method, the CBA and the NBA are a little bit worse.

It seems that if he has the opportunity in the future, he will have to popularize the training with Yao Ming.

He didn't go up to guide Guo Ailun. Whether it's the three-point organization or the training method, it doesn't happen overnight.

This is different from the detailed guidance he gave Wang Zhelin before.

Two days later, the Chinese team played a warm-up match with the Japanese team.

It's not easy for people to come here once, and a beating is definitely not enough.

Tang Tian still didn't play this match, but he did.

And Ding Yanyuhang also reported to the national team.

The two were teammates of the Pelicans, and Tang Tian was sitting at the end of the bench chatting.

Li Chunjiang's formation was the same as last time, with a big rotation in the first half.

However, Abdu was in a hot state and played very well in supporting three-pointers. The Chinese team opened the score in the first half.

As a result, the whole game became training time.

Tang Tian was not too surprised.

This Japanese team looks good on paper, but confrontation has always been their weakness.

In history, they also played in this year's World Cup, but they didn't win a game, and they lost 53 points to the weakest dream team in history, and only beat Paul by 5 points.

"Li Chunjiang is amazing! The first half of the first game was really just a test!"

"What do you want to be so handsome! Brother Chun is the best coach in China! Brother Xinchun, you will live forever!"

"Abudu is so handsome, handsome and able to fight, Chinese Kuzma!"

"You think that Abdu has already signed a two-way contract with the Pelicans, NBA players must be strong!"

"Tang Tian and Xiao Ding haven't played yet. If they can't hold out against the Japanese team for half a quarter, I think we have the strength to fight the US team!"

"That Hachimura is real water, Ah Lian just exploded his shit. If Tang Tian comes here, I'm afraid it won't last for 2 minutes!"

"Hurry up and start the World Cup, I want China to play against the US team!"

……

After a big victory, the comments on the forum also changed 180 degrees in an instant.

The first thousand and 310 chapters and three chapters of the World Cup without underdogs

There are still more than ten days before the start of the World Cup, which does not mean that it will start at the beginning.

However, as the World Cup approaches, it is true that there are more and more warm-up matches around the world.

Even many national teams have come to China to play games in advance, and by the way adapt to China's game environment in advance.

After the Chinese team played two games with the Japanese team, they then moved to Wuhan, where they participated in the Four Nations Tournament.

The gold content of this four-nation competition is very high. In addition to the Chinese team, the remaining three teams are France, Brazil and Canada.

This is also a signal of the strength of the Chinese team.

As the Olympic defending champion, coupled with Tang Tian's existence, and Fiba's strength ranking.

Other countries are willing to play against a strong team like the Chinese team, especially if this strong team is still the host.

The grouping of the World Cup teams has already been determined, except for Group A, the grouping of other groups.

Group B: Greece, Venezuela, South Korea, Cameroon

Group C: Australia, Iran, Brazil, Tunisia

Group D: Angola, Philippines, Italy, Serbia

Group E: Canada, Slovenia, United States, Japan

Group F: Russia, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Montenegro

Group G: Dominica, France, Germany, Jordan

Group H: Türkiye, Senegal, Lithuania, Spain

According to the rules of the World Cup, the top two in the group advance to the rematch, and the 16 teams are the top 16 of the World Cup.

Then groups AB, CD, EF, and GH are reorganized into new groups I, J, K, and L.

The top two teams in groups I, J, K, and L advance to the quarter-finals, which is the quarter-finals.

Brazil, France and Canada are in Groups C, E and G respectively.

According to this rule, the earliest encounter between them will be in the quarterfinals, so they are very good warm-up targets for each other.

The Four Nations Tournament will be divided into groups, preliminaries and finals.

In the preliminaries, the Chinese team and the French team were drawn into a group, and the Canadian team and Brazil were drawn into a group.

The winners of the two groups enter the finals to determine the champion and runner-up, while the losers enter the loser's group to determine the third and fourth places, and then distribute the prize money.

The bonus is not much, but more important than that money is the chance to play against each other.

For the four teams, this is a warm-up match with a very high gold content before the World Cup, and they all attach great importance to it.

Taking the Canadian team as an example, this year's unprecedented number of NBA players all chose to play for the country.

Wiggins, Jamal Murray, Tristan Thompson, Tang Tian Pelicans teammate Alexander, these are relatively well-known.

In addition, Corey Joseph, Dillon Brooks, and Dwight Powell are also on the team roster.

Including this year's Flower Show, Tang Tian's fan RJ Barrett is also on the list.

This is also the reason why fiba puts the Canadian team ahead of China, Serbia, Australia, France and other strong teams in the strength list.

In terms of overall strength alone, it is not too much to say that this Canadian team is the strongest outside of the US team.

Of course, the strength of the French team is not bad. Although Parker has already retired from the national team, Fournier is on the outside, Batum is on the front line, and Gobert is on the inside. They also rank sixth in the strength list.

Including the Brazilian team is also playing with all the main players. This time the Four Nations Tournament has also attracted considerable attention in China.

The venue for the Four Nations Tournament is the Wuhan Sports Center Gymnasium.

It is worth mentioning that the 2011 Wuhan Asian Championships was also held in this arena.

At that time, the enthusiasm of fans in Wuhan was well known throughout the country, and it could be called a beautiful landscape.

The same is true for this competition. Tickets for the Four Nations Tournament were sold out early, and the scalper market continued to be hot.

The game between Brazil and Canada will be played in the afternoon.

The Chinese team came to watch from the sidelines.

After the warm-up ended, the two teams started to play one after another.

For the Canadian team, Alexander and Murray on the outside, Wiggins and Dwight Powell on the front, and Tristan Thompson on the center.

All five of them are NBA starters or even obvious players. Canada is really star-studded.

Compared with Canada, the Brazilian team seems to be a bit weak.

Outside "Lightning" Barbosa and Marcelo Huertas, forward Garcia and Capocolo, center Varejao.

There are five starters and three veterans, and none of them are playing in the NBA. The only "Brazilian Durant" Capocolo who is playing in the NBA is not worthy of his name.

Compared with the other three teams, the Brazilian team is the weakest one.

However, there is a reason why it was invited to the Four Nations Tournament. Both Brazil and Argentina are strong South American teams with similar styles.

Moreover, the two teams are now also facing a situation where there is no pick-up.

It is of course very meaningful to play against the favorite teams of the World Cup champions such as France and Canada.

In case you don't play well, playing against the Brazilian team is also of great exercise value.

The game started quickly, and unexpectedly, the Brazilian team suppressed the Canadian team in the opening game.

Murray was taught by Barbossa to be a man, and he was suddenly a little suspicious of life.

On the other hand, in Canada, Kong has talent, but has not been able to display his strength.
