Chapter 422
After 1 win and 1 loss, Huaxia has come to the third position in Group B. In front of them are Spain and Australia, which have won 2 games. Russia, which has the same record, temporarily ranks third because of losing to Huaxia.Winning the Fighting Nation boosted the morale of the whole team. For the next game against Australia, everyone is full of confidence that they will win.

To be honest, Australia's inside strength may be better than that of Britain in Group B. Their most important inside player, David Anderson, is 32 years old this year, and he rarely goes deep into the basket to attack and prefers to shoot from mid-to-long range. The big man is not strong in confrontation, Huaxia can let Yi Jianlian close to mark, the effect is obvious.

The other starting insider, Baynes, is strong enough, but he is a guy with relatively rough skills and is not tall. He basically cannot take any advantage against Yao Ming. As long as he can ensure that he is not beaten at the basket, it is enough. He has what it takes.

In other words, when playing against Australia, Huaxia should be able to take the absolute initiative in the interior. The team also focused on the interior in the previous two games. Australia's interior is so vulnerable, it is not difficult to gain an advantage on the court.After watching the game highlights of the Australian men's basketball team, the Huaxia players basically put their hearts into their stomachs.

However, Xu Hao was not as optimistic as others.Of course, he does not deny the dominance of Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian in the interior. Facing Anderson and Baines, the first pair of Australian interiors, there is only one possibility of completely blowing up.The only thing that worries Xu Hao is Australia's outside line. His intuition tells him that both Dellavedova and Ingles are difficult to deal with.

However, Xu Hao did not express his worries, he was afraid that this would disturb the morale of the army.You must know that everyone's morale is high now, and you can kill this tone with one sentence. It is still unknown whether the team can perform at a normal level in the game.And he also has confidence in his own strength, if there is any problem, he may not be unable to deal with it.

One day later, China's match against Australia started as scheduled.Not to Xu Hao's surprise, Australian head coach Brett Brown put up a starting lineup of Mills, Dellavedova, Ingles, Anderson and Baynes. Although this is a dual-control backcourt, But the characteristics between Mills and Dellavedova are completely complementary, and Dellavedova's height of 1.91 meters can barely make up for Mills' shortcomings. Brown obviously has good intentions.

In fact, many old players in the team were quite critical of his formation. Both Dellavedova and Baynes participated in the Olympic Games for the first time, and they were actually qualified to be the starters, and they were still in such an important position. During the game.However, Brown put them into the starting lineup against all opinions. In his opinion, qualifications are not the most important thing, and strength can determine status.

At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming won the first wave of offensive possessions for China, and Baines, who was wearing a small tangle, was completely unable to compete with him.Huaxia's first offense was also completed by Yao Ming. He received the ball in the low post to squeeze away his Rockets teammate Anderson, and completed a two-handed dunk on the latter's head. For Yao Ming's dunk, Anderson could only Reciprocated with a wry smile.

There is a very obvious gap between the strengths of the two, otherwise the Rockets would not let Anderson serve as Yao Ming's substitute.Originally, Baynes should be responsible for protecting the basket, but he has been pulled to the free throw line by Yi Jianlian, and Anderson can only helplessly bear the impact brought by Yao Ming's huge body, and then he can only watch it off. Yao Ming scored easily.

Deng Huade was very satisfied with the team's dominance in the interior, but soon he frowned, because when Huaxia launched an attack again, the slightly thin Dellavedova seemed to be hanging On Xu Hao's body, he used both hands and feet to prevent him from handing the ball to the inside. Xu Hao, who has always been experienced in stalking, has nothing to do.

Xu Hao also knows that he has a hard time. It stands to reason that Dellavedova is still working hard in the NCAA, but he did not expect his style of play to be so dirty.That's right, Dellavedova has a lot of small moves in defense, which annoys Xu Hao. He himself occasionally uses small moves to harass his opponents on the defensive end, but Dellavedova can be said to be insane.

Seeing that the ball could not be passed in, Xu Hao had no choice but to break through with the ball, and Dellavedova still followed him lingeringly.When Xu Hao struggled to get to the inside and was about to force a layup, Dellavedova pushed him very covertly. Fortunately, Xu Hao's waist and abdomen were strong, and he stabilized his figure in mid-air without falling. Flying out, but the layup that should have been a surefire layup was not scored, and it became Australia's defensive rebound, which was almost turned into a quick transition attack by them.

After landing, Xu Hao gave Dellavedova a hard look, but what he got was the latter's innocent expression.This made Xu Hao's teeth itch with hatred. This guy looked like a bastard, and he didn't even dare to admit what he did.

However, Dellavedova's defense was indeed very effective. Xu Hao couldn't even use half of his skills. Even if he handed the ball to Wang Shipeng and started running without the ball, Dellavedova seemed to be fighting with him. He was on the fence, and he couldn't even drive him away.As long as Xu Hao gets the ball, whether it's a breakthrough or a shot, he always has to make some small moves to interfere.

Fortunately, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian played very easily in the paint. One of Anderson and Baynes was not strong enough and the other was not tall enough.Coupled with Wang Shipeng and Zhu Fangyu's occasional three-pointers from the outside, Huaxia is still firmly in control of the situation on the court, which has already met the requirements for them.

However, Xu Hao was very unhappy being harassed by Dellavedova. It is certainly a joyful thing for the team to maintain the lead, but he did not contribute to this lead. On the contrary, he also hindered his teammates.For Xu Hao, who is used to carrying the team forward, this is completely unacceptable. He is determined to defeat Dellavedova in the remaining time of this game and tell him that the NBA Finals MVP is not someone to be trifled with. Yes, so Huaxia can win more easily.

Having said that, Xu Hao hasn't thought of a particularly good way to deal with this annoying guy. It's obviously impossible to rely on the referee. For such a very subtle little move, the referee can't play a big role, and he can't do it himself. Force Dellavedova to turn small moves into very obvious fouls.Suddenly, the scene of Yao Ming's back-up singles in the interior fell into Xu Hao's eyes. His eyes lit up and he thought of a good way, which should be able to kill his opponent...
