The so-called score/loss ratio refers to the score/loss ratio between three teams.

According to the rules, teams with high scores and losses rank high.

In three games, China was 66 to 73 Australia, the United States was 98 to 88 Australia, and China was 87 to 80 United States.

Chinese team: (66+87)/(73+80)=153/153=1;

Australian team: (73+88)/(66+98)=161/164=0.982;

Team USA: (98+80)/(88+87)=178/175=1.017;

The winning and losing points of the three teams are: Team USA > China > Australia.

The final ranking of Group A was also determined, namely Team USA, China, Australia, France, Serbia and Brazil.

The Chinese team ultimately failed to become the first in the group as they wished, which made the fans feel a little regretful, because it means they have lost the easiest way to win gold.

However, this may not be a bad thing for the Chinese team.

Teams that enter the finals by luck may be just a foil in the end, but teams that have experienced hardships and break through the siege are truly competitive.

Moreover, ranking second will not allow them to encounter teams in the semi-finals and the United States in advance, and their chances of reaching the finals are quite high.

The knockout round begins two days later. The Chinese team prepares during the day and rests at night, and begins to adjust their state in advance.

Their training content is also very targeted, and they focus on three-pointers as before.

The group stage is a training and a groping process for the Chinese team.

Now they have a basic understanding that in order to win the game, in addition to Tang Tian’s performance, the shooting rate of the outside pitcher must also be guaranteed.

Otherwise, if the opponent is defending Tang Tian to the death, it will be difficult for them to win.

The next night, after the training, they also came to watch the last round of Group B.

After the last round, the rankings of Group B were released, including Spain, Croatia, Argentina, Lithuania, Nigeria and Venezuela.

The Chinese team's opponent in the quarterfinals was also confirmed to be the 2004 Olympic gold medalist Argentina team.

Argentina reached the finals at the 2004 Athens Olympics and defeated Mengliu to reach its peak.

Ginobili, Scola, Nosioni, Delphino, Prigioni, Oberto and other players have become famous and are known as the Golden Generation of Argentina.

But because of the lack of basketball talents like the United States, aging has become something they cannot avoid.

For ordinary countries, basketball talents are unmatched.

Obotto and Prigioni have retired from the national team one after another, and the strength of the Argentina team has also declined again and again.

Until now, the core of this team is still Ginobili, Scola and Nosioni, all of which are the golden generation 12 years ago.

Before the Rio Olympics started, Ginobili bluntly stated that this was his last Olympic Games with the national team.

After Duncan announced his retirement, this is another sad thing for Spurs fans.

But the only thing that is gratifying is that Argentina's opponent is the Chinese team, and they can see an infight between Spurs players.

This is also a very good thing not only for them, but for Ginobili.

Even if they reach the game level and meet the dark horse team of the Chinese team, they have great hope of advancement.

The game will only start one day. Before the game starts, Tang Tian pulled Ginobili and Parker to have a small gathering outside.

Before, they were all focused on preparing for the game, and the group stage was intensive, so they didn't have this time.

Now there is finally this opportunity on the offseason day.

This is also the first time Tang Tian got together like this three years after leaving the Spurs.

There are many topics to talk about, including Tang Tian’s experience in winning the Pelicans, the next schedule of the Olympics, and of course Duncan who has not come.

"Tim opened a car modification store in San Antonio called 'Black Jack Speed ​​Store'. Who knows what the name means!"

Parker smiled and told about Duncan's life after retirement.

"He has also been to Argentina, but not to me, he has found Oberto, they have dinner, fishing, oh, and ping pong, you must be good at this."

Ginobili was also talking, but when he said that, there was a look of envy in his eyes.

For athletes, especially players like him who have played for almost 20 years, their life after retirement is always attractive.

Tang Tian nodded with a smile. He didn't expect Duncan to have such a rich life after retirement, and he even played table tennis. It seems that he would have time to talk to him.

"Don't envy you, you're soon."

After Parker finished speaking, Ginobili touched his already bare head and nodded with a smile.

Only Parker is considered young, Ginobili is already old and has entered the countdown to retirement.

"By the way, Tim's jersey retirement ceremony will be in December, and we will all go there at that time."

Parker continued.

Tang Tian nodded. He would definitely go to such occasions as long as Duncan invites him.

They also talked about the Olympic knockout rounds at the end.

The French team is fourth in the group and will play Spain in the first round. Facing this European victim, Parker is in danger.

In contrast, there were some Chinese teams in Tang Tian and Ginobili in Argentina teams in him.

"Don't think about showing mercy to the old man."

Ginobili looked at Tang Tian with a smile, and he was still speaking as sexy as before.

"You know, I've never been ruthless to the elderly."

Tang Tian replied with a smile.

Popovich said in front of the media that Tang Tian was very serious about the elderly, and Tang Tian’s words were consistent with him.

This meme that only they knew also made Parker and Ginobili laugh.

Those two years were unforgettable experiences for them.

On August 18, the Olympics were coming to an end, and the men's basketball team's game also entered the quarterfinals knockout stage.

The four-group matches in the quarterfinals have been confirmed before, and the match between the Chinese team and Argentina team will start as the opening match.

This game has also attracted much attention from Chinese audiences.

In previous games, the Chinese team was hacked many gold medals due to referee factors, which made them feel unhappy.

When you are unhappy, you naturally hope to see breakthroughs in other projects.

The momentum of basketball this year is completely different from previous years, so it is naturally the most anticipated project.

Especially when it comes to the knockout stage, every time you win a game, you are creating new history.

At 11 noon local time and 10 pm in China, the quarter-finals between the Chinese team and Argentina team officially kicked off.

In Hall 1 of Karioca Stadium, nearly half of the fans are Chinese.

Who knows how they got so many tickets, but this is already the home court of half of the Chinese team.

Argentina and Brazil both belong to the Americas. In theory, there will be more fans present in Argentina.
