In history, the Chinese men's basketball team has had 6 confrontations with the American men's basketball team since 1984, and all of them have suffered a crushing defeat.

At the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, the Chinese men's basketball team participated in the Olympics for the first time after the founding of New China.

At that time, the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team was Qian Chenghai, with players such as Wang Libin, Kuang Lubin, Sun Fengwu, and Zhang Bin.

The Chinese men's basketball team and the American team were divided into the same group. At that time, Jordan, Ewing, Drexler, Murray and others participated in the Los Angeles Olympics as college players.

Due to the huge gap in strength between the two teams, the US team lost its main players after leading the score.

Jordan didn't even play in the second half.

The Chinese men's basketball team lost 48-97 in the first game against the United States.

The US team finally won the championship in that Olympics and the Chinese team won 10th place.

Four years later, the Chinese team was in the same group as the American team again.

This time, the US team includes players such as David Robinson, Danny Manning, and Richmond.

The Chinese team lost to their opponents 57-108 again, winning the 11th place in the Seoul Olympics.

Next, the Chinese team met the United States in the World Series for five consecutive times.

At the 12th World Championships in 1994, the Chinese team lost to the American Dream Team 2 77-132.

At the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, the Chinese team lost to the American Dream Team 3 70-133.

In the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the Chinese team lost to the American Dream Team 4 72-119.

At the 14th World Championships in 2002, the Chinese team lost to the American Dream Team 5 65-84.

Until the 2004 Athens Olympic knockout match against the American Dream Team Six, the Chinese team lost all six games, with the largest loss difference reaching 63 points and the smallest difference of 19 points.

Therefore, although the Chinese men's basketball team performed well in the group stage, most people still disliked the Chinese team when facing the American Dream Team Six in the knockout stage.

A famous reporter from the United States said very bluntly that the Chinese men's basketball team did not have any chance when facing the American team.

"The US team's performance in the knockout stage is like Shaquille O'Neal playing in the playoffs. At this time, the US team will not have any reservations, and the championship is their only goal."

Compared with the domineering momentum of the American media, the Chinese media are collectively silent and quite low-key.

......

Just when the game started less than half an hour away.

Shentong saw three familiar figures on the sidelines!

"Old Shen, Sister Hua, Sister? Why are you here?" Shen Tong was overjoyed.

Since he returned home for a few days after the playoffs, Shin Tong has been in a state of "on the road". He even didn't even call home during training in China.

However, at this moment, Sister Hua and her group of three appeared in front of her.

"Son, we are here to cheer you up!"

"Brother, don't let our Asian champions down!"

Lao Shen didn't say a word.

Shen Qing's words "Asian Champion" touched Lao Shen's heart.

In the Asian Cup final in March this year, the Chinese men's football team was rarely tough and reached the Asian Cup final at home, but unfortunately they lost to the Japanese team 1-3.

Thinking of this, Lao Shen couldn't help but want to beat his hands and stamp his feet, but at this moment he could only hold it back, and tears appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Sister Hua was shocked when she glanced at me and shouted: "Son, you must be successful! If you serve the country, your father is so excited that he is about to cry."

When Shentong heard this, he seemed to be really shocked and couldn't help but clench his fists.

But as soon as his emotions came up, Shentong was dragged back to reality by the unscrupulous sister's words.

"Brother, it doesn't matter if you lose? The three of us came here to comfort you!"

-_-||

It seems that China will lose.

However, judging from the historical record, the Chinese team does not seem to be optimistic.

Shen Tong raised his head and looked at the five-star red flag flying over the court...

......

In this game? The Chinese men's basketball team made a change of formation.

Shentong was mentioned as a small forward? Li Nan was arranged on the bench by Harris, and Zhang Jinsong, who is good at defense, was mentioned as a starting shooting guard.

So? The starting lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team is: Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Shentong, Zhang Jinsong, and Liu Wei.

The starting lineup of the US team has not changed? It is still: Duncan, Odom, Jefferson, Iverson, Marbury.

This game is still broadcast live by Catv's double-level combination.

Sun Zhengping made a brick-and-mortar move to change the starting lineup of the Chinese team: "The Chinese team takes the initiative to seek change when facing the most powerful opponent? He replaced the sharpshooter Li Nan and replaced Zhang Jinsong, who is known as the "desperate mafia" and is known as Zhang Jinsong. What do you think of this substitution? "

Zhang Weiping said: "That's right. The Chinese team won the first place in Group A. Who would have thought that the fourth place in Group B was actually the US team? This matchup really made Chinese fans unacceptable? But this is a fact after all. Taking the initiative to change before facing the US team? This means that the Chinese men's basketball team definitely has ideas for this game? And just from the performance in the group stage, is the Chinese team's performance significantly better than the US team?

Of course, I am not saying that my strength is stronger than the United States, but that the Chinese team is in a better state than the United States. At the same time, Harris's change of formation is also very particular. Replaced Li Nan to maintain the offensive firepower on the bench. Playing with a team like the United States, you must always keep the strings tight and keep the offense and scoring on the court, because you can't defend it alone. In addition, let Zhang Jinsong start, I think he may be Harris' secret weapon. This player's playing time in the group stage is actually after Zhu Fangyu, and he is arranged as the shooting guard. Obviously, he wants him to defend Allen Iverson. Shentong is in the position of a small forward, which completely gives Shentong unlimited firepower to fully play."

Sun Zhengping also said: "Small forwards usually hold the heavy responsibility of scoring in the team, while the shooting guards are long shots and defenses, so there is no problem with Harris' arrangement this time, but we will wait and see how they can play and how much impact it will have on the game."

......

China's match against the United States has attracted the attention of fans on both sides of the Taiwan Strait at home and abroad.

Chinese fans are looking forward to it, hoping that this Chinese men's basketball team can perform a miracle.

American fans are sure that the American Dream Sixth Tournament will reappear in the knockout stage of the US men's basketball team, and the Chinese team, who qualifies as the first in Group A, is undoubtedly the best touchstone.

......

The game is about to begin, and the starting players of both sides enter the court.

Since the Chinese team has several NBA players, everyone is very friendly when they play on the court and hugs and greets each other.

Jefferson faces face to face with Shenton.

"Shen, even if you reach the other side of the earth, you still can't escape from my palm."

Shentong smiled.

"Blow a ball, blow a big balloon..."

Jefferson: "..."

The two of them had their eyes intersected, and sparks appeared in the air.

Twin fists against each other.

......

Yao Ming and Duncan pose for the stance, waiting for the referee to throw the ball out.
Chapter completed!
