Chapter 431: Athletics Challenge

"In today's two games, the men's basketball team should be able to win against Angola. Angola does not have a decent inside line, and it will be blown by Yao. I don't need to play at all. As for tennis..." Zhang Guan looked at the information in his hand, and smiled slightly, "The opponent turned out to be the hapless Blake."

Blake is an American and a mulatto. His golf quotient is very high, and he was even considered to be the smartest player in tennis. At the same time, Blake cannot be regarded as a high school professional tennis player, because he graduated from Harvard University in economics.

Blake's hardcourt is very strong. He is also a strong player with a strong forehand, a good backhand line, comprehensive skills, excellent serve, and he likes to grab points. Although Blake has not achieved excellent results in the Grand Slam, he has always been ranked in the top ten in the world, and he is a titan.

But Zhang Guan knows that after Blake retired, he encountered one after another unlucky thing, so Zhang Guan called Blake "unlucky."

For example, in the second year after Blake retired, he once rented out his seaside villa, but the house caught fire and was burned down. Not to mention, even the tenant died. Although houses in the United States are insured, places where people are burnt to death, are devalued even in the United States.

Another example is that Blake stood at the door of the hotel again and found a man watching him in the distance. Blake thought he was a fan of him and smiled at the other party. As a result, the other party rushed up and knocked Blake to the ground, and then put on handcuffs on him. It turned out that this man was a plainclothes policeman, and he regarded Blake as a suspect. When Blake smiled at him, he thought Blake was going to take a gun, so he rushed to subdue Blake.

There are a lot of similar unlucky things in Blake.

He is bad luck, but right now Blake is also one of the top ten players in the world, which is enough for Zhang Guan to take it seriously.

...

On August 14, the Chinese men's basketball team played against the Angola men's basketball team. The Chinese team's current record in the group stage is one win and one loss. As long as they can win this game, the Chinese team gets a place for the group to qualify.

The Angola men's basketball team can be said to be the weakest team in this Olympics, but since the 1990 Men's Basketball World Championships, China and Angola have played 10 times, and Angola has the upper hand with 6 wins and 4 losses.

But this time, China has the world's first-class insiders, which gives them an advantage, and before the game, no one is optimistic about Angola.

Because of Zhang Guan's outstanding performance in the last game, many fans are looking forward to Zhang Guan's performance in this game, and some even proposed to let Zhang Guan enter the starting lineup. However, Yunas did not want to expose the tactics too early, so he still let Zhang Guan sit on the bench.

Zhang Guan has no opinion on this, he even hopes that he will not play today. Because at 6:00, Zhang Guan still has to participate in an eight-to-four tennis match.

The Angola men's basketball team is indeed the weakest in this Olympics. The team was beaten 8 to 2 at the beginning of the game. Then the Chinese team used the advantage of the inside to attack continuously. At the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team scored 28 and was leading by 15, Yao scored 10 points in a single quarter.

However, in the second quarter of the game, the Chinese team was a little careless, the shooting rate dropped and turnovers increased. In this quarter, the Angola men's basketball team chased the 15 points back in the single quarter, and the Chinese team only led 44 to 42.

At the beginning of the second half, Yao once again showed his power. Not only did he perform well in the offense, but he also blocked shots in defense. The Chinese team entered the final quarter with a 65-51 lead. The Angola team scored only 9 points in the third quarter.

In the final fourth quarter, the Angola team strengthened its offensive from the outside, and the score was once reduced to 9 points. However, at a critical time, Angola's internal weakness was shown and blocked one after another. In addition to chasing distractions, the Chinese team became more and more aggressive. They finally swept their opponent 85 to 68 and won.

In this game, Yao scored 30 points. In addition to Yao, the Chinese team also had four double figures. The two-pointer shooting rate was 81%, assists 17 times and 37 rebounds far surpassed Angola's 19 rebounds, it can be seen that the Chinese team has an absolute advantage in the paint. However, the team's 15 turnovers are much higher than the Angola team's 9 turnovers.

Zhang Guan did not play, disappointing the fans who were looking forward to it, but no one made any comments because the Chinese team won.

In basketball games, as long as they can win, the coach's wrong arrangements can also be interpreted for countless reasonable reasons; and if they lose, even if God comes to be a coach, they will find various flaws.

Winning Angola, the men's basketball record has become 2 wins and 1 loss, it can be said that it locked their place in the group.

...

In the National Tennis Center, in the athletes' lounge, Blake is making final preparations for the game.

The leader of the US tennis team looked very excited, and he seemed to look forward to this contest.

"Since last year's ATP Year-end Masters, Zhang Guan has not played for eight months. Without playing for eight months, the competitive state will inevitably decline." The team leader said.

"Uh... sir, I'm very sorry, in the first three rounds, I didn't see any drop in the state of Zhang Guan," Blake said.

"Although Zhang Guan won relatively easily in the first three rounds, don't forget who his opponents are, Lu Yanxun, Carlyri, and Melzer. After the world rankings are all in the top 50! So Zhang Guan's first three victories are watery he has not returned to his peak state at all." The team leader said with a smug look.

Blake is not as optimistic as the team leader, but Blake does not intend to surrender. After all, he is the top ten top tennis player in the world, and of course, he has the confidence to challenge Zhang Guan.

...

At six in the afternoon, the match between Zhang Guan and Blake officially began.

In the first set, both sides firmly grasped their respective serve. Blake's strength on the hardcourt is indeed very strong, and he is also very good at that kind of high-speed service, which makes Blake's serve much easier. The first 10 games were tied 5-5.

In the crucial 11th game, Zhang Guan strengthened the rotation of the ball. Blake's forehand made frequent mistakes in a straight line. This allowed Zhang Guan to successfully break serve. Then Zhang Guan successfully secured his serve. Win the first set 7-5.

In the second set, the two sides played a 4-4, but in the end, in Blake's serve, Zhang Guan took the lead in getting the breaking point. Blake worked hard to save two break points but was still won by Zhang Guan on the third breakpoint. Zhang Guan also won the second game with a score of 6-4.

Zhang Guan defeated Blake and advanced to the semi-finals of tennis. Faced with the touchstone of Blake, Zhang Guan proved himself again.

Zhang Guan's opponent in the semi-finals is British player Murray. The match will be held tomorrow afternoon.

For Zhang Guan, there is another important thing tomorrow, that is, the Olympic track and field competition is about to begin. In the first men's 100-meter dash, he will meet Bolt's challenge!

The battle for the world's number one flying man is about to kick off...
