Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

Chapter 518 No danger, enter the top 8!

It was hard to accept that they lost in the first game of the Asian Championships, and they lost to a South Korean team whose lineup was not as good as theirs.

It's hard for a group of players to accept it, it's hard for the coaching staff to accept it, and it's hard for Lanxie leaders to accept it.

Returning to the locker room after the game, coach Yannakis first cursed at the players, and then leader Hu Jiashi came in and cursed again.

This time he not only scolded the players, but also scolded the coach.

He did not scold Coach Yannakis directly, but pointed at the three assistant coaches and roared: "You know that the physical strength of the veterans needs to be distributed appropriately, why didn't you replace them earlier? Why did you let them continue to shoot when you saw that they couldn't make a shot?" , Don’t you know how to change tactics? Don’t you know how to make more breakthroughs and hit the basket? Do you have to point at Ah Lian alone?”

The three teaching assistants were speechless.

They actually understood that Hu Jiashi was scolding them in person, which was actually a criticism, and it was Coach Yannakis who was actually being scolded.

Coach Yannakis doesn't speak Chinese, and Zhou Zhiming can't translate it for him. However, Coach Yannakis is not a fool. The three assistant coaches have been called dogs. How can he, the head coach, have no responsibility? They are his assistants, doesn't scolding them mean scolding himself?

After a moment of venting, the leader left.

Zhuang Yu has been sitting in the corner. No one paid attention to him, and no one cared about him. He didn't play for a minute today, so of course he can't be blamed.

However, he could feel that the team's atmosphere had become very bad. Losing this game was a huge blow to the China Men's Basketball Team and had a very bad impact.

What happened next also verified his suspicion...

At the post-match press conference, coach Yannakis took the initiative to take responsibility and said that they would make timely adjustments in the next game and would definitely win the game.

And he did win.

On August 8, the China Men's Basketball Team vs. Malaysia. In the end, the China Men's Basketball Team beat Malaysia 2:113, beating the opponent by more than 22 points, which can be regarded as saving some face.

But just when the fans thought that the Chinese men's basketball team was cheering up, on August 8, against Iran, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to Iran 3:51 and lost by 70 points.

If the previous loss to South Korea was accidental and accidental, then there is no excuse for this game.

What a fiasco!

In the end, after three games in the first round of the group stage, the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team had 1 win and 2 losses, ranking third in Group C. If it were not for the top three in the group, it would not even have the right to qualify.

Zhuang Yu only played in one of the three group matches, the one against Malaysia, but he only played for 4 minutes, and the opponent was too weak, so there was no challenge at all.

As the first round of the group stage ended, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to South Korea and Iran one after another, and the team's atmosphere became increasingly tense.

......

At the end of the first round of the group stage, the China Men's Basketball Team was included in Group F along with Iran, South Korea, Kazakhstan, Bahrain, and India.

This game was very easy. Zhuang Yu also got more playing time. He played 7 minutes, made 4 of 3 shots, and scored 7 points, plus 2 rebounds and 2 assists. The efficiency was very high, but the data was still relatively average. But at least it looks better than before.

As the Asian Championships progressed, Zhuang Yu learned more about the team's tactical system, style of play, and the technical characteristics of his teammates.

After entering the quarter-finals, there will be a cross-elimination rule, which means that the opponent of the Chinese Men's Basketball Team (F3) will be E2's Chinese Taipei.

Regarding this game, almost everyone believes that the Chinese Men's Basketball Team will win, because Chinese Taipei's strength is barely considered second-rate, and it is not at the same level as the Chinese Men's Basketball Team. What's more, in the past many years, the two sides have played against each other many times, and Chinese Taipei has never won once.

This time is no exception.

When the game started, the Chinese men's basketball team did have the upper hand.

Seeing that he had the upper hand, Hu Jiashi started gesticulating again. After only three minutes of playing, he signaled the coaching staff to make substitutions: "There is no need to let the veterans play for such a long time in a team like this. Substitute them early, let the veterans come down and rest, and let the veterans rest." Let the young players go up and have some experience.”

Coach Yannakis had a grim look on his face and finally made a substitution: "Wang Zhizhi and Wang Shipeng are out, Li Xiaoxu and Zhuang Yu are up."

Zhuang Yu felt happy when he heard his name. He didn't expect that it would be his turn so soon today.

He was the third substitute defender before, behind Chen Jianghua and Li Xiaoxu. Many times he didn't get a chance to play in the first quarter. He didn't expect to have the opportunity so soon today.

This is actually because he played well in the previous three games, and coach Yannakis was surprised to find that not long after, Zhuang Yu's tactical execution and running position on the court were already in good shape, which meant that he had already Familiar with the team's tactical system.

Over time, coach Yannakis has actually recognized Zhuang Yu's strength and talent.

It's just that Zhuang Yu joined the team too late and was not familiar with the team's tactical system, familiar with his teammates, and lacked tacit understanding, so he never dared to use it, so he was only allowed to show his face in garbage time.

However, after entering the second round of the group stage, he found that Zhuang Yu was adapting to the team's tactical system at an astonishing speed, and different teammates on the court would have different behaviors when passing the ball and attacking. The choice is obviously to know the characteristics of teammates and adapt according to them.

This is very unusual.

Some players may not be able to do this for a month or two, but Zhuang Yu can do it after only one week in the team.

Therefore, he planned to give Zhuang Yu more opportunities. If Zhuang Yu performed well...

"Wait a moment."

At this moment, Hu Jiashi suddenly spoke. He glanced at Zhuang Yu and said: "This is the quarter-finals, a knockout, not a group stage. At this time, another person has only been in the team for a week, and he has never passed the international competition. Isn’t it inappropriate for players with big competition experience to go up?”

"Three assistant coaches, what do you think?"
