Chapter 24 Nerve knife!
The head coach of Russia is David Blatt. He is not a Russian coach. He was born in the United States and attended Princeton University.
He once played under legendary coach Pitt Carrier. Influenced by Carrier, Blatt usually uses Princeton to attack in his future coaching.
David Blatt has worked hard in the European League for many years. Before coming to Russia, he left him in Israel and Greece.
During the 6 years of coaching Maccabi, Blatt led the team to win 6 Israeli Cup championships and 5 Israeli League championships.
In Russia, he has coached for more than four years and led the team to win the European Championship in 2007.
Of course, people nowadays won't know that in four years, Blatt will become the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, but his coaching in the NBA has not been as successful as Europe.
But there is no doubt that he is definitely a genius in coaching the team's offense.
But the Russian team was rested by four starters in half a quarter and only scored four points in defense, which was a great humiliation for Blatt.
But this is the case in the world. Those who are good at swimmers are drowning. And on the other hand, Russia has indeed reached a pain period. There are not many talented guys in the team. This is a grassroots era.
Blatt can use his genius to train such grassroots and allow them to realize all their potential through passing and cutting, but it is cruel in the arena.
You can use tactics to play grassroots that exceed their potential, but if your opponent is as hard as you, grassroots will begin to be subject to lack of talent.
The Chinese team's talent has been removed from the starting four players, but the rest can only be considered mediocre, except for Zhou Mubai.
But this is also the meaning of the existence of a superstar.
When both sides are mediocre and one of them is led by a talented guy, then this side will tie the balance of victory to its own side.
That's what it looks like now.
Under Zhou Mubai's planning, the Chinese team made a very good attack. In contrast, Russia often lost its temper and the score gap was gradually widened.
This situation surprised many people because before the game, people thought that the Chinese team and the Russian team might lose, and the so-called Chinese team is a complete Chinese team, rather than a four-start Chinese team.
Unexpectedly, Russia is still so embarrassed when facing the Chinese team with four missing starters?
Deng Huade's chin almost dropped off the field.
No one knows the Chinese team better than him. This Chinese team is formed step by step from him.
To be honest, this Chinese team is worth looking forward to only the starting lineup. The rotation lineup is either too young or the talent is still far from the starting lineup. Anyway, in the international arena, it can only be considered a middle-level and lower-level strength, and the rotation time can barely be up, but it is impossible to make them start.
But this kind of person, under the leadership of Zhou Mubai, played like a first-class national team.
"Guo, what do you often say is easy to get for tens of soldiers, but not easy to get for a general?" Deng Huade asked Guo Shiqiang.
Guo Shiqiang pondered for a moment: "Is it [It is easy to get a thousand troops, but hard to find a general]?"
Deng Huade nodded repeatedly: "It's this sentence that makes so much sense. Our team has the general Zhou Mubai, which can reach this level. Zhou is really amazing. It would be great if he had him every competition!"
Guo Shiqiang smiled.
He used to be a defender, and he knew too much how difficult it was to be a defender.
The defender is the worst physical advantage on the court. It can be said that the defender has no advantage except speed.
Therefore, the defender must learn to play with his brain, but even the defender who is best at playing with his brain will still be subject to his body.
Zhou Mubai is the smartest guard he has ever seen. In Guo Shiqiang's eyes, Zhou Mubai is all perfect. Whether it is dribbling, passing, shooting, controlling the rhythm, controlling the situation, understanding of tactics, and reading game ability, Zhou Mubai is perfect.
Of course, Guo Shiqiang also knew in his heart that Zhou Mubai might not be that perfect, but Zhou Mu Abai's level has far surpassed himself, so he is perfect everywhere when he sees him.
This is just as scary.
Guo Shiqiang is no longer a young self. He has been polished on the court for many years, and has been studying with internationally renowned coaches in the years as an assistant coach. His vision and experience are no longer the same, and his judgment ability is always much stronger than his own strength. Even so, Zhou Mubai is still so perfect!
Guo Shiqiang has high expectations for this World Championships. He even has a premonition that the Chinese team led by Zhou Mubai may surpass the predecessors of the previous Chinese team.
The Russian players became more and more frustrated as they played. They felt that the rest of the Chinese team were mediocre, the center and forwards were slow, and their strength and height were average. They just worked hard on the defensive end and basically couldn't help on the offensive end, and the small forward and small defender had limited ability to take the initiative.
The only outstanding one is Zhou Mubai, but there is only one Zhou Mubai, and they can't limit it.
At the beginning, the Chinese team's small defender relied on Zhou Mubai to feed the ball and played several fast attacks. After Russia's targeted defense, the small defender was silent, but Zhou Mubai began to run.
The first time a Russian player saw a situation where a person could almost drag the entire opponent to death when playing fast break.
Once Zhou Mubai grabbed the rebound, he would be a brainless fast attack no matter how many years he was.
But Russia just has no choice.
Is there any way?
Zhou Mubai couldn't stop him when he ran quickly with the ball. Unless they immediately gave up the frontcourt rebound and returned to defense after taking action, no five people would fall into the position, and Zhou Mubai would still find a chance to take action.
Being too careful, Zhou Mubai chased him three points;
He was too defensive, and Zhou Mubai rushed to the basket and made a layup;
It's reasonable to prevent it, Zhou Mubai doesn't make sense to you. Anyway, he jumps up one or two steps into the three-point line and shoots the middle distance, and his shooting percentage is amazingly high!
This kind of playing method is actually very unreasonable, it is the so-called nerve knife playing method.
This style of play abandons cooperation with teammates, and does not pay attention to the so-called higher-efficiency style of play, nor does it mean that the so-called control rhythm is not the so-called brainless fight.
If someone else is replaced by the coach or critics, they will have to be pulled out by the fans after the game.
But this is Zhou Mubai, and his vote is really accurate.
If you don’t believe it, look at it. In the third quarter, Zhou Mubai scored 41 points personally!
In the third quarter, the Chinese team scored 71 points, and the score between the two sides was 71:34!
