    Eight o'clock in the evening is a good time. Zhang Weifeng felt this way for the first time since playing in the Olympics. The main reason is that the Chinese team's games have always been played after ten o'clock in the evening, or in the afternoon.  There are indeed very few people watching the game during this time.  But 8 to 10 o'clock in the evening is different. This is a prime time in the evening, and during this time period, there are indeed many people watching the game!  Although the game has not started yet, Zhang Weifeng and Yao Ming are already very busy. This game has attracted many athletes to watch the game.  Among them, the United States is the most conspicuous audience. After they easily defeated Australia, the whole team came to watch the Chinese team's game!  Athletes from other countries, whether they were competing or not, also appeared at the competition at this time!  Some of these people know Zhang Weifeng and Yao Ming, and some of them have admired them for a long time. Therefore, before the game starts, these people naturally have to joke with them!  And those guys from the American team even joked that they were waiting for the Chinese team in the finals!  In fact, Zhang Weifeng attaches great importance to this game. After all, there is no room for mistakes in this game, and if they lose the game, their Olympic journey will be over!  The opponent is the Croatian men's basketball team, and some Chinese fans may not know enough about European teams, but Zhang Weifeng is very familiar with this team!  In the previous life, in the 1920s, the Croatian men's basketball team once threatened the Dream Team's gold medal status as a blue-collar team!  Therefore, at that time, Zhang Weifeng, who had played for the country many times, was also familiar with the Croatian men's basketball team!  The Croatian men¡¯s basketball team is one of the strongest teams in European basketball. The style of this team continues the Soviet style of play!  And speaking of this, it has to do with some history!  In 1991, Croatia announced its separation from Yugoslavia. After independence in 1992, the Croatian men's basketball national team performed well in international competitions and was the fastest-growing team in Europe, becoming one of the top 20 teams in the world.  The Croatian men's basketball team focuses on cultivating the team's overall strength, and most of the players in the team are skilled, and the team's internal and external strength is relatively even!  However, their shortcomings are also relatively obvious.  That is, they don't have a big man with singles ability at all. However, the Croatian men's basketball team without an outstanding big man can always ensure that the inside players will not score too few points.  This is mainly because several of their guards and even small forwards can be used as point guards. They can break through and pass the ball, and they can pass the ball after the pick-and-roll. What the big man has to do is simpler.  The Croatian team is a team that pursues speed but also pays attention to the overall situation.  Although there are no big-name stars in their team, the Croatian men's basketball team has achieved countless honors in his basketball journey of less than 20 years!  Among them, Croatia won the silver medal at the 1992 Olympic Games, the bronze medal at the 1994 World Championships, the bronze medals at the European Championships in 1993 and 1995, and the 2002 World Championships.  The Croatian team defeated Russia and Serbia, the traditional European teams; it won the second seed in the 2007 European Championship draw.  The Croatian men's basketball team has produced many world-class players, the most famous of which is Toni Kukoc, who won three NBA championships with Michael Jordan when he was with the Chicago Bulls.  But the Croatian men¡¯s basketball team that the Chinese team will face today is a team that is slowly going downhill!  There is only one NBA player in this Croatian men's basketball team. Actually, he is an NBA player. In fact, this big brother has not played an NBA game yet!  And this person is Roko Ukic, the new leader of the Croatian men's basketball team!  Vukic is only 24 years old. Although he was selected by the Toronto Raptors with the 11th overall pick in the second round of 2005, he still has a lot of talent.  Ukic, who was only 20 years old at the time, did not choose to enter the NBA immediately!  And this delay is far away, so until now, Ukic is just a player who has been selected but has never played in the NBA!  Ukic is a point guard with a height of 1.96 meters. He is not a pseudo-open player, but a real point guard!  Ukic has solid basic skills and can control the ball with both hands. His own conditions are also very good.  He is nimble, quick and has great court vision.  In European leagues, Ukic can get rid of defenders at will, rush to the basket, and choose to score or distribute the ball. He is the engine of the team's fast break game.  As a point guard, Ukic's mid-range shooting is relatively accurate, which is a very considerable advantage.  And as the number one position.  Ukic's defensive ability benefits from his height and long arms. Another point worth mentioning is that this guy is always full of energy on the court and his endurance is very good!  "This will be a tough game. The opponent is a team that is good at attacking, and their attack from the outside is very sharp. Croatia's combined internal and external attack is very characteristic. This also reminds us that we must pay attention to them when defending.  The team cooperation is great! This game will be very difficult, and we respect such an opponent very much in our hearts!" When being interviewed before the game, when asked about the Croatian men's basketball team and the Chinese team,  How do you view this game?At that time, Zhang Weifeng greatly praised the Croatian men's basketball team!  As for how the Croatian men¡¯s basketball team feels about the Chinese team?  Obviously they are also very afraid of the Chinese team's inside advantage, and this was confirmed when the game was about to start!  The 47-year-old Yasmin Lipisa is the head coach of the Croatian men's basketball team. At this time, he was arguing with two assistant coaches on the sidelines. Yasmin Lipisa still insisted on his point of view: "Lu  Ka, Drazen, I know what you two are thinking, but you should know that their inside advantage is too obvious and powerful. If this gap can be made up by just sending a big man, then China  The team will not reach this point! Therefore, we must still adhere to the characteristics of Croatia. No matter what the opponent is, we must maintain the characteristics of our system and style of play! Only in this way will we not fail on the field!  Being led by the opponent!" Luka is the assistant coach of the Carodia men's basketball team. When he heard Yasmin's words, he said lightly: "Oh, no, I think we should send our senior coach.  Tall! Their movement speed is not as bad as you think. Their players from the United States are very fast, so we may not necessarily have an advantage in speed!"
