The invincible kryptonite of basketball

After the first quarter, the Brazilian team led the Canadian team 21 to 15.

The process of the game was astonishing.

Even Li Chunjiang, the head coach of the Chinese team, frowned and thought deeply, obviously looking for the reason why all this happened.

But Tang Tian didn't seem surprised.

To say that many people call Canada a "dependent country" of the United States, there is a lot of oil in it.

If nothing else, let's just talk about the national team. Canada also has a very late training session like the Dream Team.

As a result, these players have no personal strength, but they have never fought for the country before, and the tacit understanding between them is very poor. It looks like a weakened version of the dream team.

On the other hand, the Brazilian team is familiar with each other and cannot be more familiar with each other, and there is a tacit understanding on both offensive and defensive ends.

And he also knows that in history, the Brazilian and Argentine teams, who have been watching the weak, have performed well in the World Cup.

In particular, the Argentine team eliminated the United States and France all the way to the World Cup finals.

The two teams have been deadlocked, and the Brazilian team leads 68 to 64 at the end of the third quarter.

In the last quarter, too many veterans on the Brazilian team had physical problems, and the Canadian team won the game under the leadership of Murray.

At the end of the game, the Canadian team finally defeated the Brazilian team 85 to 75.

But after the game, the head coach of Canada Nas looked dignified.

In terms of strength on paper alone, this Canadian team is stronger than the Raptors he led in the NBA, but it obviously did not meet his psychological expectations.

"There are no underdogs in the World Cup!"

In the stands, Li Chunjiang couldn't help expressing emotion after watching the whole game.

You must know that in the ranking given by Fiba before, the Brazilian team was only ranked 13th, and it really surprised him that the 13th beat the second.

In fact, it wasn't just Li Chunjiang, the men's basketball players also had surprised expressions on their faces.

Seeing their reactions, Tang Tian felt that tonight's match was not in vain.

The fans feel that the Chinese team is not afraid of being in a top-ranked group, but what is afraid is that the players feel the same way and take it lightly when playing games.

The first thousand and 310 chapters and four traditions cannot be lost (editing)

After watching the game, Li Chunjiang took the players to the locker room.

After changing my clothes, I started training in advance on the field.

Assistant coach Yannis was training with other players on the field, and Li Chunjiang was also pulling Tang Tian to chat about playing against the French team tonight.

This match will be Tang Tian's first appearance on behalf of the Chinese team since the Rio Olympics.

In the warm-up match, exercise is very important, but before the World Cup, winning or losing is also very important.

In addition to exchanging tactics with Tang Tian, ​​Li Chunjiang also mentioned the matter of starting tonight.

Batum is now a garbage contract in the NBA, and his state and strength are no longer good.

The real leaders of this French team are Fournier and Gobert, an offensive core and a defensive gate.

In addition to Fournier on the outside of the French team, Ntilikina and De Colo are also NBA-level players.

In other words, playing perimeter defense with France will be key.

But among the players of the Chinese team, except for Zhao Jiwei and Sun Minghui, the defense of the others is not good.

And both Zhao Jiwei and Sun Minghui have no basket, which is even more embarrassing.

"I'll play point guard."

Tang Tian could hear Li Chunjiang's meaning and said it directly.

"it is good."

Li Chunjiang obviously also had this idea, and Tang Tian immediately agreed as soon as he opened his mouth.

Tang Tian can play from the first position to the third position in the NBA. If he plays the first position in the international arena, he can make the opponent's guard cry.

The two then discussed the starting candidates for other positions.

Tang Tian played the first position, and Ding Yan Yuhang played the second position. The backcourt combination of the two was completely worthwhile against the French team, and even had the upper hand.

In the third position, after the discussion between the two, Abudu was still allowed to start.

Zhou Peng has better experience, and Zhai Xiaochuan is tougher in defense.

But what the Chinese team needs more on the field is three-pointers and support, and these two are precisely what Abdu is good at.

The insiders are Zhai Xiaochuan and Yi Jianlian.

Originally, Zhou Qi's ability to protect the frame inside was the best on this team, but now he is injured and can't play, so Yi Jianlian can only play the fifth position.

It's a bit sad to say, since Yao Ming retired, Yi Jianlian has been at No. [-] for more than ten years.

After discussing the tactics and the starting lineup, Tang Tian took the initiative to make a request to Li Chunjiang.

"The opening ceremony, like the Pelicans?"

Li Chunjiang had a weird expression when he heard what Tang Tian said.

The almost ceremonial appearance of the Pelicans is now well known, but if the national team also engages in this set, I am afraid that the higher authorities will not accept it.

"If there is a problem, I will take care of it."

Knowing Li Chunjiang's worry, Tang Tian followed suit.

"It's okay, if you insist, I will carry it."

Li Chunjiang was tough enough, seeing Tang Tian's firm attitude, he became tough too.

After the two discussed it, the training over there was similar.

Li Chunlin called the team together and first announced the start of the night.

Abudu and Zhai Xiaochuan were very excited after listening to it. It was exciting to think about being able to start together with Tang Tian.

"I will look at the performance of each starter on the field. This is not the final starting lineup for the World Cup."

Li Chunjiang also added a sentence after announcing the starting lineup.

This sentence is not only a reminder to the starting players, but also a motivation for other players.

If you want to really start the game, you have to show enthusiasm and hard work in the game.

The team members were all very excited after listening to it. They all wanted to start playing together with Tang Tian, ​​and then fight for the World Cup championship.

Seeing the reaction of the team members, Li Chunjiang nodded with satisfaction.

Then, there was a silence.

Yes, silence.

Li Chunjiang looked a little embarrassed, and when the team members looked up at him, he coughed twice, and then he spoke.

"In addition, in order to improve the morale of the team, we will start from this game and add a unique opening ceremony before the game."

Li Chunjiang's words aroused the players' curiosity.

"You've all seen the Pelicans, right? That's it."

Li Chunjiang really didn't know how to describe it, so he directly used an analogy.

After he finished speaking, the reaction of the players was wonderful.

Immediately, Yi Jianlian turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at Tang Tian. His expression seemed to say, it's not enough for you to harm the Pelicans, and the national team is also coming.

Wang Zhelin and Guo Ailun unconsciously stretched out their hands and looked up.

They all pay more attention to their appearance. If they are bald, they dare not think about it.

Zhai Xiaochuan and Kelan Baike looked a little excited, and it could be seen that they had a tendency to tremble.

On the other hand, Ding Yanyuhang was calmer. Anyway, he was not under-touched by the Pelicans.

"Well, no one objected, so it was decided."

Before the team members could speak, Li Chunjiang blocked the conversation directly.

In fact, if Tang Tian asked for it, he would push back if someone objected.

Ever since, this unique appearance ceremony of the Pelicans has been passed down to the national team.

That night, the gymnasium of Wuhan Sports Center was packed.

Although it was a warm-up match, this was the first time Tang Tianshi played for the national team after three years. The fans' expectations and excitement can be imagined.

The warm-up eased, and Tang Tian also stepped up some warm-up efforts. A 720 turn around almost didn't make the fans climax directly on the spot.

The pride really cannot be described in words.

After the warm-up, the scene entered the opening ceremony.

There is still a difference between international games and NBA appearance ceremonies.

There is no spotlight and it is not simply to introduce the starters, but to introduce all of them one by one, and the national anthem has to be played again.

The French team played first, and the French national anthem was played first, followed by the Chinese team.

Tang Tian's national team also wears No. 31. Don't ask why, it means that the rules allow it.

He was also the last to be introduced.

After everyone finished their introductions, the other players stood in two rows and bowed their heads under the terrified and joyful eyes of the fans.

Then Tang Tian stretched out two hands from the front row of the line, and began to touch the back in a flash.

Familiar recipe, just in a different place!

The scene erupted in an instant, with whistles and cheers one after another.

Tang Tian's head-touch kill!

This is not only the belief of the Pelicans, but also the belief of many Chinese fans!

Seeing the reaction of the audience, the members of the Chinese team felt more comfortable.

Even after being touched, they felt an inexplicable sense of self-confidence.

The environment has a huge impact on people's psychology!

On the other side of the stadium, Fournier couldn't help but smile contemptuously after watching the Chinese team's appearance ceremony.

These bells and whistles are like watching monkey performances in a circus.

After playing the national anthem of the Chinese team on the spot, he called the players together and said some words of encouragement.

The French team's win tonight will provide them with great confidence in their next World Cup journey.

Although Fiba ranked the Chinese team ahead of the French team, it was more to give Tang Tian face. The overall strength of the Chinese team is not strong, especially the inside is very poor.

On the contrary, the internal and external configuration of the French team is reasonable, and winning is also a matter of course in his opinion.

The first thousand and 310 chapters, this is too strong!

After the players came out, they had a final warm-up, and the starting lineups of the two teams were also given on the spot.

For the French team, Ntilikina and Fournier on the outside, Batum and Amat Mbaye on the striker, and Gobert at the center.

The Chinese team here is the same as what Li Chunjiang said during training.

Tang Tian and Ding Yanyuhang on the outside, Abdu and Zhai Xiaochuan on the front line, and Yi Jianlian on the center.

Seeing the lineup of the Chinese team, the head coach of the French team, Michel Gomez, showed a look of surprise.

He didn't expect that the Chinese team would use Tang Tian as the No. [-] position.

He called Ntilikina to him and told him for a long time.
