Chapter 883 [Invincible, the first name to qualify]
This time, Yang Jian gained a lot and brought back many novel gadgets.
The last time I went to Skull Island there was no way there were high-tech products, it was in the 1970s.
Of course, Yang Jian also brought back two lightsabers, but unfortunately they couldn't be used in this world. These are just props for imagining, and they cannot become reality.
Yang Jian did not buy a hover car, but bought a lightweight aircraft, but unfortunately it still cannot be used. This must be used with armor, with rocket thrusters on the legs and hands, similar to the equipment of Star Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy. In reality
There won't be.
Back to reality, Yang Jian can only be an ordinary person. He can wear the armor made of Mandalorian iron, but it is too heavy and impractical. It just looks more handsome.
Even if he wears a super-defensive armor that makes him invulnerable, it won't be of any use. He's not going to be a superhero.
After another day of rest, Yang Jian officially met with the Chinese men's basketball team to train and prepare for the Athens Olympics.
The team's 12-man roster has long been determined. As soon as the young players saw Yang Jian, the first thing they did was to ask for autographs and take photos.
Yang Jian casually encouraged his teammates, and everyone was very happy. In the eyes of CBA players, Yang Jian is an unreachable superstar. It is a great honor for them to enter the national team and play alongside Yang Jian.
Center: Yao Ming, Battelle, Wang Zhizhi.
Power forward: Yi Jianlian, Moko, Du Feng.
Small forward: Zhu Fangyu, Zhang Jinsong.
Shooting guard: Yang Jian, Li Nan.
Point guard: Guo Shiqiang, Liu Wei.
The goal of the Chinese team is the Olympic gold medal. When selecting players, they mainly select inside players, with relatively little outside rotation. As long as the players can cooperate with Yang Jian in running, catching and shooting, they are qualified, and then there are defense and fast breaks.
Yang Jian treated Yao Ming to a big dinner the day after he joined, and added an intermediate recovery potion to Yao Ming's drink. This does not have to be injected, and the effect may be less if taken orally, but in order not to arouse suspicion, he could only do this.
If he gives Yao Ming an injection, regardless of whether Yao Ming can trust him, if the hidden injury is completely healed, the matter cannot be hidden at all.
Within a week, Yao Ming thought he had adjusted better. His training volume was not high, and he usually just practiced tactics and rested on the sidelines.
The strength of this national team is very strong. It doesn't matter that Yi Jianlian is still very immature. Many people are at their peak. In a parallel world, even if Wang Zhizhi did not participate in the game, the men's basketball team also reached the Olympic quarterfinals.
Yi Jianlian is a super rookie in the CBA. This time he is the younger brother of the team and does not have many opportunities at all. He joined the national team mainly to accumulate experience and prepare for the future.
During training, Yang Jian guided Yi Jianlian and praised his talent. The advice he gave Yi Jianlian was similar to that of Wang Zhizhi, focusing on his ability to catch and shoot and coordinate the passing game.
A big man who can do these two things well in the NBA will not have to worry about losing a contract even if his offensive ability with the ball is poor. Yang Jian asked Yi Jianlian to be prepared. He will definitely play in the NBA in the future. He must lay the foundation in advance and find the right position.
Wang Zhizhi has established a firm foothold in the NBA and is doing better than in the parallel world, just because he has found his position correctly. His mid-range and long-range shots are very good. He will not run to the low post to catch the ball and play behind the back, but will only wait for opportunities to cut.
After playing two warm-up games, the team arrived in Athens. Yang Jian was interviewed by Chinese reporters and became uncharacteristically high-profile.
"I am now confident to lead the Chinese team to win the gold medal. The team's condition during the warm-up was much better than I imagined. As long as we play a wonderful offense, it will be difficult for our opponents to beat us."
The reporter asked: "Which team do you think is most likely to give the Chinese team the championship?"
"The U.S. team and the Argentina team. Needless to say, the U.S. team has a group of stars. Their lineup depth and impact are better than all teams. Argentina also has many players who are capable of playing in the NBA. This is their golden generation."
In fact, Yang Jian just complimented the American team a few words, so that it would appear more valuable when it eliminated its opponents.
Looking at the lineup of the American team, Yang Jian knew that when the two teams met this year, the Chinese team would advance.
The 12-man U.S. roster has been confirmed, and it lacks pitchers just like the 2002 World Championship. Iverson, Marbury, Dwyane Wade, Richard Jefferson, Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James,
Shawn Marion, Lamar Odom, Amar'e Stoudemire, Tim Duncan, Ben Wallace, Emeka Okafor.
The only change between the "Dream Team 6" and the parallel world is that Carlos Boozer was not selected for the national team and was replaced by Ben Wallace, who failed to win a championship with the Pistons. Ben has plenty of physical strength and is willing to work for
Traveling abroad, Boozer's statistics with the Sonics were average and he had no chance of being selected.
This resulted in the "Dream Six" missing one of the most accurate mid-range shooters in the paint, and the lineup was not as good as in the parallel world. This time, the head coach of the American team is still the "famous coach" Larry Brown.
The media praised this old white academic coach, saying that he could build an iron-blooded team and bring something different to the national team.
The national team is only training for a while, and there are still people who expect Larry Brown to build a good team's defensive system. If the US team finds an offensive coach to play fast break, this lineup will be very strong and it will be difficult for opponents to withstand it. But Larry Brown
He is an old-school coach who advocates positional warfare. If you always want to play fast breaks, just sit on the sidelines.
The American team mainly plays positional warfare, and the core of the outside line is Iverson, who has a stable shooting rate of about 40%. What else is scary about this? The master and apprentice of the 76ers team will work together to prevent the death of other members of the Dream Six Team.
of.
The Chinese men's basketball team also has an advantage against Argentina. Because Argentina's number one core is shooting guard Ginobili. In the SuperSonics, Yang Jian often dueled with Ginobili, and he was even shadowed.
Scola is the second in charge of the Argentine team, and his strength is not as good as that of Yao Ming.
On the 14th, the Olympic Games officially opened, and Yang Jian continued to serve as the Olympic flag bearer for the Chinese team.
On the 15th, the men’s basketball team defeated Spain 101-83 in the first game.
Yang Jian violently abused "Bomb" Navarro, and Spain had to double-team. Even so, Yang Jian scored 44 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals.
Navarro does not play well in the NBA because of poor confrontation. He has almost nothing to do against Yang Jian. During the counterattack, as long as Yang Jian holds the ball and challenges one-on-one, Navarro just watches him score. He can neither withstand a forced breakthrough nor block a jump shot.
.
On the 17th, the second group match was simpler, with the Chinese team beating New Zealand 108-62.
The weather in Athens was good, and Yang Jian basked in the sun even more. He scored 57 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals. His style of play was very simple. He would throw three-pointers when he had the chance, and he made 10 of 14 shots. This was the only one.
Just scored 30 points.
New Zealand's center switched to a pick-and-roll, and Yang Jian found an opening to pass the ball to Yao Ming, who was cutting through the screen. Yao Ming also had the opportunity to play in the low post without going directly, and his scoring efficiency was also very high.
In the third game, China defeated Argentina 89-80. It was still a combination of internal and external play, with Yang Jian suppressing Ginobili.
In the fourth game, China narrowly defeated Italy 90-89.
The schedule is very intensive, and Yang Jian cannot maintain his best form in every game. His shooting percentage was not high this time because he had to play hard because his teammates did not support him. He took a lot of shots and was double-teamed.
He was already prepared to lose, but he didn't expect that because his shooting percentage was less than 40%, he triggered his talent in the last minute and "God was so moved that he cried". And when the score was within 5 points,
, he triggered the "Big Heart" talent again.
In the last minute, Yang Jian went crazy and hit 4 consecutive three-pointers. In the last attack, he held the ball and broke through a difficult floater. With the team trailing by 11 points, he scored 14 points in 1 minute to complete a great comeback.
The Italian team players failed to press the clock even if they wanted to. They encountered a mistake from the full-court press. After Yang Jian stole the ball, he made a three-pointer from two meters outside the three-point line.
His last buzzer-beater didn't pass the ball when faced with a double team. He found a little gap, tilted his body and threw it with one hand, but it still went in. The distance was considered a mid-range shot, and he also had the buff of an iron-blooded jump shot.
In this game, Yang Jian scored 45 points, and the dark horse Italian team players lost their temper. The media said: "The Chinese men's basketball team is invincible under the leadership of Yang Jian!"
In the fifth game, China defeated Serbia and Montenegro 91-66, winning all five games in the group stage and qualifying for first place.
