Chapter 428 Confrontation Mode
Deng Huade naturally had no opinion on Xu Hao's idea. He replaced Yao Ming with Ding Jinghui with 3 minutes and 27 seconds left in the first quarter, and Yi Jianlian took the center position. Although the overall height has dropped, his mobility has improved.

The reason for doing this is to provide Xu Hao with enough opportunities and space to make calls. After all, when Yao Ming is on the court, the offense of the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team revolves around him, even if Xu Hao is the MVP of the finals.But when Yao Ming went to rest, the team's offense was basically controlled by Xu Hao, and Deng Huade also gave him the right to make impromptu decisions on the court.

With the support of his teammates, Xu Hao put aside the task of defending Ginobili and started to fight him.Compared with Manu Ginobili hitting the rim and making fouls, Xu Hao's style is simpler and rougher. His offensive method is to fight one-on-one from outside the three-point line. It was a sharp and precise shot.

Compared with the NBA, the three-point line in the international arena is closer to the basket, which is equivalent to a large two-pointer that Xu Hao rarely takes in the NBA. Shooting percentage.

Ginobili, who is not very good at defense, naturally cannot mark Xu Hao personally. According to the arrangement of Lamas, several other Argentine perimeter players kept chasing and intercepting Xu Hao, and did not give him an easy shot.However, Xu Hao's strength is not something they can hold a candle to. Moreover, in the previous season, Xu Hao has mastered the crotch dribble. With this trick, he can create space for himself, and then shoot quickly. .

Xu Hao's precise shooting made the Argentine players look ashen, and even Ginobili was shocked.He has studied many Timberwolves games, but under NBA-level confrontation, Xu Hao rarely showed such strong shooting skills. It just so happened that the Olympic Games gave Xu Hao such an opportunity, with less intense confrontation and closer to the basket The three-point line at the basket, coupled with the defender who is not very willing to engage in physical confrontation, these factors all add up to make Xu Hao a shooting machine.

Xu Hao, who had only scored 4 points before, scored 11 points in a row in just three and a half minutes, helping Huaxia gain a strong lead.At almost the same time, Ginobili also scored 8 points, but Xu Hao's scoring drove his teammates. The shooting percentage of the entire Huaxia team has increased visible to the naked eye, and it is not too surprising to take the lead.

During the break, Ginobili couldn't help but take a deep look at Xu Hao. Only then did he realize that the Timberwolves won the championship last season was definitely not only due to luck. They have very strong strength, and Xu Hao is very good prove.

Now both sides want to suppress the opponent's outside arrows, but Xu Hao and Ginobili are far superior to all the defenders on and off the court, so it is very difficult to guard them.This also caused a lot of trouble for Deng Huade and Lamas. They can only believe in the best outside player under their command, hoping that they can surpass each other in terms of outside scoring.

After the start of the second quarter, Xu Hao and Ginobili started to fight again at the same time, but this time it was a coincidence that their scoring methods were changed from each other. Ginobili started shooting three-pointers, Xu Hao Constantly attacking the inside line.

In fact, they all have the intention of competing with each other more or less in their hearts, so they simultaneously choose the techniques that the opponent used in the last three minutes of the first quarter.However, Ginobili's three-point shooting tonight felt mediocre, far from Xu Hao's abnormal shooting rate. Many shots turned into Huaxia's defensive rebounds, and the score gradually widened.

In contrast, Xu Hao's breakthrough is no worse than Ginobili's. Although the two have different styles, they have similar effects.Xu Hao didn’t carry a pack of explosives to the basket every round like Ginobili did. He has more ways to score. Among other things, the gradually proficient Jordan-style fadeaway jump shot made it easy for him Quite a few points.

Less than 4 minutes into the second quarter, Lamas had to call a timeout. When Ginobili walked off the court, his face was full of depression. It was obvious that his strength was not as good as Xu Hao's.The opponent showed both shooting and breakthrough abilities today, but Ginobili could only rely on breakthrough layups. He finally realized that he had entered the twilight of his career.

After the game restarted, Argentina pursued Xu Hao inhumanely. They chased Xu Hao's footsteps like mad dogs, and even planned to let him catch the ball.But they forgot one thing. Xu Hao is not a simple scorer, but a combo guard who can score points and organize. At this time, it is too easy to assist his teammates to score.

Xu Hao's outstanding performance put Argentina in a dilemma. They didn't know whether they should defend this handsome young man.Every time it seems that Xu Hao has been surrounded, the latter is able to pass the ball from a seemingly impossible angle, with impeccable speed, height and position, which allows his teammates to easily make shots.

In this quarter, China beat Argentina 27 to 17. The performance of 17 points in a single quarter made many Argentine players look constipated. This is definitely a shame for them with strong offensive firepower.What's more, China had a 57-point lead, 45-12, at halftime, and it looked like it hadn't tried at all.

Such a performance on the spot and in the eyes of the fans in front of the TV is terrifying. Argentina is also a well-known team in the world basketball world, but they did not expect to be beaten by China on the land of the British Isles.Although only half of the game time had passed, the Huaxia men's basketball team was already proud of being able to beat Argentina like this at the end of the half.

Of course, the reason why Huaxia was able to achieve such a big advantage in only two quarters was entirely due to Xu Hao's outstanding performance.He didn't rest for a few minutes throughout the first half, and contributed 17 points and 5 assists with extremely high efficiency.When he walked into the locker room, many teammates came up and gave him a big hug. They all understood that without Xu Hao, they would have fallen behind.

Deng Huade is naturally quite satisfied with Xu Hao's performance, but he just praised him verbally, and then brought everyone's attention back to the upcoming second half of the game. For him, only winning is important .
