In recent years, quick that the Turkish Men's basketball team rises, on an international championship, the Turkish Men's basketball team only got up two teams, actually rose to challenges, obtained the sixth good achievements, this has given Turkey a national not small pleasant surprise. Also makes the Turk realize that did not have player, Turkey can obtain a good result as before.
Since 2006 international championship had ended, Turkey starts is 2010 men's basketball team international championship prepares. As the host, Turkey naturally hopes that own national sports team can obtain the good achievements, at least cannot compare one to miss.
Turkey's strength on three big-ball sports is very strong, this main reason at Turkish domestic sports atmosphere and first-class professional league, soccer league tournament of Turkey, although cannot compare several big league tournaments of Europe and America, but is stronger than the Asian league tournament \; Besides NBA, the basketball league of Turkey ranks is next to Spain and Greece, stronger compared with the basketball leagues of many Europe, therefore many European players play a ball game in the basketball league of Turkey \; But the volleyball league tournament of Turkey is the world-class level, collected in the world many top volleyball athletes.
When Turkey increases after the international championship draws the investment in ball, has made very remarkable progress, Turkey also presented a group of very outstanding basketball players, has several people in enjoying the sight and sound of the wind whipping up the water that in NBA mixes.
In order to prepare for international championship, Turkey and famous coach Bogdahn Gewitsch has carried on the supplementary contract. Bogdahn Gewitsch is a native of Bosnia-Herzegovina, is the basketball coach of European top, had coached the Italian National sports team, and leads the team to win the championship in European Club repeatedly. The four years ago Japanese international championships, Bogdahn Gewitsch leads the Turkish team, has attained the sixth result.
In current Turkish team, the player who also useful many play a ball game in NBA, for example they core player Turk Gelug in frontal line, without a doubt are the main score points of Turkish team \; Just returned to NBA Illia Sauvat, teamed up to appear with Turk Gelug in the frontal line of Turkey, created to any team sufficiently troublesome.
Appears in the Turkish team center position is rocket fan very familiar Arsica, he can provide the most solid barrier for the basket of Turkish team under. Moreover by center Semi Eldon who Celts selects, will undertake to substitute the heavy responsibility of center, can share the enormous pressure for Arsica. Arsica and Eldon, hold the post, holds the post of the substitution, making Turkey obtain the world first-class strength in center position.
Meanwhile the Turkish two players are also not allow to neglect, one is share guard, although he does not have very strong body, but the fighting method is steady, shooting is accurate, especially the three-pointer hit probability is very high, it can be said that is playing China the role in King Shipeng, but personal ability, compared with King Shipeng, the stable aspect also be even better higher.
Another person is called Tonce, Turkish team core point guard, was Turkey first controlled the health/guard, „devil” nickname, and had obtained the secondary attack king of Turkish domestic league tournament. Tonce of young time penetrates has the imagination, has Nash's style, although now he was old, passed does not have that intelligence of young time, however his experience rich, condition also stability. It can be said that because of his existence, can make other players in Turkey display the respective level.
In this international championship, Turkey by the group first advancement. Was as them of host in C groups, group also has Greece, Russia and Australia, however they actually entered the elimination series by the success of total victory, even if were formidable Greece, finally also lost in the hand of Turkey.
But in the elimination series first round, Turkey by 95 : 77, close 20 points of superiority has defeated France.
Must know that this France may not be weak, although Parker of France has not participated in the international championship, but in France has Bartum, Tuault, Peter Ruse these three NBA player and virtue as before - Kollow this future NBA player, the strength will place Europe to be also top. In the competition, France audience are backward, Turkey has determined 15 points of lead in the first half. But in the second half after starting 10 : 0 assault waves, once made the lead of Turkey arrive at 25 points, but this also pouring extinguishes the hope that France won.
In time, the Turkish team by excelling at dozen of running free bureaus is well-known, so long as hit along, did not instigate the US team, if hit was not smooth, was bullied by the weak team frequently. The present Turkish team strength must be stronger, hits the running free bureau to be also fiercer, let alone this is the home game of Turkey, even if the US team faces Turkey, needs to be careful.
China knows that the home game of Turkey is not good to hit, perhaps the Turkish team is not a strongest match, but this competition certainly is the most difficult competition, because of the Turkish team of home game combat, can fight to the last drop of blood with China, even if not give up to the last second.
......
In field of Istanbul full house, because is the competition of host, the seat of scene had been filled with by the Turkish fans, refuels the cheering sound to surge wave upon wave.
That several veterans of national sports team think little actually, they have seen the magnificent scene, the psychological quality is good enough, facing calm that the devil away game can also compare. Zhang Guan the competition experience is incomparable rich, the intense feeling and stimulation feeling that hundred meters dash can bring may many that the basketball is bigger, therefore faces the crazy Turkish fan, Zhang Guan the mentality as before is also gentle.
Instead is these young athletes of national sports team, appears somewhat anxious, they too do not adapt to this home game atmosphere obviously, from the speech and behavior as well as the behavior movement, displays an intense feeling.
Is association movement, comes under the influence of home / away game to be bigger, for example today, a Turkish audience crazy shouting " long live " before the emperor Tsunami, lets the scene 12 Turkey players feel inspired at the same time, but also weakened the morale of 12 Chinese players. The influence of this home game, counter-balances Deng Huade „has hit chicken blood” the effect instantaneously.
Sees the expressions of several young players, Zhang Guan helpless sighing, he knows that today's competition, could not count on these young fellows.
In the middle of opening the memory of crown, in this international championship, China divided with Turkey in a group. In semi-final, China lost 8 points facing Greece, lost 9 points facing Russia, lost 8 points facing Puerto Rico, but from the minute difference, the young people occupies most China remarkable. But facing Turkey time, actually fully lost 47 points, China even has not attained including half score of Turkey. This obviously is not manifestation of both sides normal strength, the quite reasonable explanation facing the home game atmosphere of Turkey, the athletes in China generally displays abnormally.
Young needs to study, but study must always pay tuition, present China is paying tuition, regarding each young player, this is a road which must be taken, only then slowly gains in the competition experience, slowly adapts.
Is good because of five players of China is the senior players, their existences made the young player have many cushion time to adapt to the competition, adapts this home game atmosphere.
„Young people or growth insufficient quick!” Zhang Guan deep sigh one breath. He knows now this situation, the best method that helping these young people grow as far as possible obtains to be in the lead, making these young players realize, the home game of match is also mediocre, can be in the lead at the home game of match as before, when they were no longer anxious, even if bridged over this initially with the threshold.
The competition from the beginning, Turkey forestalls opponent by a show of strength, Turk Gelug completes first to attack, his feel was good, comes up to throw into a three-pointer, has had the grand opening for the Turkish team.
China refuses to admit being inferior, the first attack by the Dayao singles, colluding that most excels, ball steady has tossed into the basket.
Facing Turkey, in first several competitions too display Dayao, once more has not lifted up the flag of attack, the national sports team also all of a sudden returned for two years ago „Yao Hexin” time, several veterans in field are appear handy. After all this was they have hit ten years of fighting method, was they most familiar fighting method.
Center Arsica of Turkish team, is unable to prevent the attack of Dayao obviously, even if Dayao has not restored to the peak condition, is not a Arsica person can deal in offensive and defensive both sides.
Arsica as a seven chi (0.33 m) tall man, although the movement talent is ordinary, but his height and strength are competent the common blue-collar job sufficiently, the outstanding arm show lets him in protection backboard even better, but the positive running position and good keeping off open the ability, is he can in very big factor that in NBA stands firm. Naturally present Arsica has not entered to NBA, his ability also remains at the level of Turkish league tournament.
Was a defensive inside connection, Arsica has had both the build, mobility and consciousness, when these merits facing the attack of Dayao, were not being completely are the merits, movement talent quite common Arsica, is unable to defend the attack of Dayao.
But to Turkish team attack time, Arsica is useless existence.
Arsica is that type in the player who under basket can score points, after the score method that he most excels is to keep off to open , the holding breaks through to the basket, then completes the slam dunk. He absolutely does not have the delivery capabilities, even including penalty kick fights the levels of five dregs, will not carry the body singles, manifests the roughness of his technology.
Therefore Arsica's attack basically can disregard, if runs into other teams, Arsica can also use his physique to attain several points when the basket, but faces Dayao, the physique is useless, Arsica who can only depend upon the slam dunk score, wants to attain for one point is very difficult. Copes person who will not shoot, defense time does not need to pursue, only needed to defend under the basket to be OK, made Arsica shoot in any case, he also threw into.
Today's Arsica is doomed only to be able as one to fight for the backboard the blue collar, but the attack of Turkey does not depend upon Arsica, Turk Gelug and Illia Sauvat, is they main score point.
......
Dayao faces Arsica, consecutively for three times attacked was successful, Arsica somewhat felt helpless facing Dayao obviously. However China has not obtained to be in the lead, Turk Gelug's feel is also good, in the first three attacks has thrown into two three-pointers, similarly has assumed full responsibility of the first six points of Turkish team.
This being locked in a stalemate has continued to 10 : 10 draws, Turkish team coach Bogdahn to change players, he thinks that Arsica is in the athletic field the most useless person, he is defending an end unable to defend Dayao, is attacking one not to have the achievements, therefore he changes Arsica, has exchanged substitution center Eldon.
Eldon will also land NBA in the next season, his defense is inferior to Arsica, but he will shoot . Moreover the feel of shooting is very gentle, Coach Bogdahn thought that cannot defend Dayao in any case, might as well change the player who can score points, increases the output of firepower.
But at the same time, Zhang Guan also starts „first to control health/guard Tonce to exert pressure to Turkey”.
Facing opening crown the pressure that gives fully, the Tonce consecutively two balls made the mistake, one time has encountered the steal, one time transported in the ball the sideline.
But, Tonce can only hand over in Turk Gelug's hand the duty of organization attack.
Turk Gelug is the core of this Turkish team, he participated to compete on behalf of the Turkish National sports team in 1999, actually once was called the Turkish team „malignant tumor”, the reason was he occupied the massive getting rid opportunities in the Turkish team, but the hit probability was not entirely as desired. Especially in time, Turk Gelug has taken too many getting rid opportunity, but actually cannot be hit probability, in addition defends the end level to be ordinary, therefore Turk Gelug became an efficiency low data brush, he once was even expelled the Turkish National sports team.
However in the final two seasons of Magic, Turk Gelug has made the career maximum grade, the field 19.5 points make him be recruited by the Turkish team again, 40% three-pointer hit probabilities, are make him the new leaders of Turkish team. But elimination series first round with the competition of France, Turk Gelug facing „French Pippen” Bartum, has handed over for 20 points the answer papers of 4 backboard three secondary attacks.
Turk Gelug must undertake the organization attack the duty, this has shared his some energy, another end, Dayao was still wreaking havoc the inside connection of Turkish team, today his condition is good, the feel is also fiery. When first close to finishing, China instead by 21 : 19 has led two points, a Dayao person has contributed 13 points.
This score made the nervousness of Chinese young player return to normal, they thought that although the home game fans in Turkey called was very jubilant, but the Turkish Men's basketball team was actually not fearful existence, at least in the showdown, China also obtained being in the lead, Dayao was a person selects to turn the Turkish two centers, has inspired the morale of young player.
After the young player of Chinese substitution goes on stage, has not appeared panic-stricken, although had still not made „hits chicken blood” the standard, but also is the normal display, regarding the young player, can the normal display in this atmosphere, is a very good matter.
Sits on the bench, Zhang Guanwang in the athletic field these energetic young players, starts to talk cannot help but was sighing: „Young people grew!”
„Right, they are the national sports team future hopes!” Smiling face that Dayao has revealed feeling relieved.
The cage game is so, anything compared with not attending a competition of high level, can help the player obtain the growth, especially regarding the young people are so. Looks at the drinking fountain in NBA, compared with hit many of harvest in CBA, rapidness of growth.
These young people of national sports team are away from NBA to be remote, even can say that is hard to touch the NBA threshold for a lifetime, therefore the international championship became the most important sports event that they can attend.
Five semi-final and an elimination series of experience, successively and many teams fight, especially has defeated Slovenia, making the young player harvest too to experience, before the international championship perhaps they can only be the levels of CBA league tournament, is now, passed through the baptism of competition, they had to stand the ability of international athletic field, they hit even more accomplished a task with ease.
Five of China all on the scene under rest, in the field is five substitute player, vigor that they demonstrate, is the player does not have, although the young player will make some unreasonable mistake, but in scene China does not drop the wind, score by tight biting, China among a minute of difference with Turkish teams has not pulled open throughout.
The first half, both sides have made into 41 draws, regarding home game fan, this is a very disappointing score. Turkish this walked Taishun that hit, attacked Greece and France is easily accomplished, this made the Turkish fans feel, facing China should also win with ease.
Turkish team head coach Bogdahn, somewhat could not sit still at this time.( To be continued.)
