Before this game, the Argentine men's basketball team had a high voice to win the championship. Although there are no NBA stars in the team, under the leadership of Campazzo and Scola, the team beat the strong teams including Serbia and France all the way to the finals, and the team's morale was high. In contrast, although Spain also beat Serbia and Australia, their ups and downs in the game were not so reassuring. However, in today's competition, Spain defeated Argentina by a score that almost hung up. This result proves a truth in the basketball world-only height is a skill that cannot be learned the day after tomorrow.
In this World Cup, the survival magic weapon of Argentine men's basketball team is the small lineup led by backcourt partners Campazzo and La Provera. They all have excellent shots, and their speed and integrity have been brought to a very high level with Scola, who is in his prime. But at the same time, Argentina also has a fatal weakness, that is, their short average height has natural defects in the basketball court that emphasizes physical talent. When 39-year-old veteran Scola hit the inside core with a height of 2.06 meters, the problem of short height finally became the fatal door to knock them down.
In today's decisive battle, the Spanish team gave full play to its height advantage: Yu Yi with 65,438+0.965,438+0 and Lu Biao with 65,438+0.93 formed a tall backcourt partner. 2.65,438+06 Gasol Jr. and 2.65,438+0 Willie Hernangomez are in the penalty area, plus 2.06. At the same time, in order to cope with Argentina's fierce personal snatch, the Spanish team arranged tactics of reducing dribbling, emphasizing passing and inside attack, which made Argentine players feel uncomfortable from the opening stage. Under the organization and coordination of Gasol Jr., the Spanish men's basketball team played the offensive of 14-2 and made a perfect start. Since then, the Argentine men's basketball team once used fierce defense to play a continuous counterattack and catch up with the score. However, when the Spanish men's basketball team used the height advantage to play a three-dimensional attack combining inside and outside, a wave of 9-/kloc-0-0 offensive made them enter the second quarter with a 9-point advantage.
In the second quarter of the game, the Spaniard gave full play to his height inside. Led by Pau Gasol Jr. and Willie Hernan Gomez, the Spaniard completely controlled both ends of the penalty area. When Argentine players struggled into the penalty area again and again, they missed scoring opportunities again and again under the cover of the tall Spanish players; When Spanish players took advantage of their height to monopolize rebounds easily and put the famous saying "If you control rebounds, you control the game" in front of the fans, the situation of the game completely fell to the side of the Spanish team. As proof, when Spain had a rebound advantage of 26- 15 in the first half, leading 12 points was the best reward for them.
In the face of the tactical gap caused by the huge height gap, the Argentines did not give up. From the second half, they tried to bring their tight defense and counterattack breakthrough to the extreme, and they did achieve good results-at the critical moment of the last quarter, they once chased the score difference of more than 20 points behind to about 10 with fierce power, forcing Spanish strikers juan hernangomez and Ribas to commit crimes. But when the Spanish team replaced Gasol Jr., his inside attack and the interference from the defensive end immediately blocked all the possibilities for the Argentine to reverse. So when Spain won the World Cup with a rebound advantage of 42-2 1 and finally beat Argentina 95-75, the game was actually another manifestation of the truth of basketball: basketball belongs to big men, whether it is true or not.
