The Olympic men's basketball group stage continued to be hot, and the United States men's basketball team faced the Serbia men's basketball team, winning 110-84. Durant's comeback performance in this game was particularly eye-catching, leading the team to an easy victory!
In the high-profile Olympic men's basketball group stage, the United States men's basketball team successfully demonstrated their strength by defeating the Serbia men's basketball team 110-84. At the beginning of the game, Durant showed a hot state, which made people shine. He scored 23 points in the game, and in the first half, he made a perfect 8-of-8 shooting, scoring 21 points easily. The fans were ecstatic with this performance, and the whole stadium was ignited by his wonderful performance. James didn't disappoint either, proving that he was still the backbone of the team with an all-around performance of 21 points, seven rebounds and nine assists. Curry hit three three-pointers from the outside and scored 11 points, providing the team with stable outside firepower.
Durant's comeback was undoubtedly the biggest highlight of the game. His performances on both ends of the pitch were impressive, especially in the first half, when he was almost impeccable in terms of shooting, which really gave a sense of his upswing. James' performance is also not negligible, and his all-round performance is still very solid in terms of statistics. Curry's three-point shot was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, not only stabilizing the team's scoring, but also making it difficult for opponents to find effective counter-attacks.
Kerr continued to use the same starting lineup for the warm-up game, with Curry, James, Booker, Holiday and Embiid starting together. However, Embiid's performance was a bit disappointing. Despite being a starter, he scored just four points from the field, shooting 2-of-5, 0-of-1 from beyond the three-point line and zero of three from the free-throw line, all of which showed that he was not in the same shape as expected today. Jokic, who was opposite Embiid, was even better in the game, scoring 20 points, five rebounds and eight assists.
In the comparison of interior players, Embiid seems a little inadequate. He is clearly not as effective on the field as Davis and Adebayo. Embiid played just 11 minutes in the game before being dropped by Kerr, which also speaks to his place in Kerr's heart. Davis gained more trust in key moments, he scored 7 points and 8 rebounds on 3-of-6 shooting, especially on the defensive end, and became the mainstay of the team's interior line.
Everyone's views on Cole's employment strategy are also very interesting. Some netizens discussed on social media: "Kerr's use of people is really smart, and Embiid performed well in the warm-up game, so he was given the opportunity to start, but it was obviously not in good shape in the official game, and Kerr made decisive adjustments and did not give Embiid a chance to hold back." Another netizen also commented: "Embiid's performance today is really not good, I feel that his time on the court has been wasted." Davis's performance has been solid, and being used by Kerr in key moments shows how important he is to the team. ”
Embiid was booed by the Parisian crowd during the game, reflecting the controversy over his choice to play for the United States men's basketball team. A netizen said: "Although Embiid chose to play for United States, it is obvious that his performance in this game was not recognized by France fans, and there was a boo, which must be a big blow for him." Another netizen sympathized with Embiid, feeling that his state today may have been affected by some uncontrollable factors: "Although Embiid did not perform well, he was also the pride of France after all, and choosing to play for United States may have cost him." ”
James, Durant and Curry remain the pillars of the United States men's basketball team. Durant, in particular, has been the key to breaking the deadlock many times in the game with his inexplicable individual singles. When a team is in trouble, giving the ball to Durant and allowing him to attack on his own can often make a difference for the team. This tactic is obviously an important advantage for the United States men's basketball team, and some fans commented after the game: "Durant's individual singles are really invincible, and he can change the pace of the game as soon as he comes on the court, which brings great help to the team." ”
Overall, this game not only showed Durant's fiery comeback form, but also verified Kerr's flexible employment strategy. The United States men's basketball team, led by the Big Three, continues to maintain strong competitiveness and lays a solid foundation for the Olympic journey. As the competition progresses, we expect them to continue to perform like this and challenge for the gold medal.
Embiid really completely transformed himself into an all-around offensive player. Now, he can easily score in any position, which surprises many people. Whether it's playing the back under the basket, or making a mid-range jumper, or even a three-pointer, he can do it all. And he's not just an offensive master, he's just as good on the defensive end. His ability to block and rebound under the basket often puts opponents' offense in a difficult position.
Fans know how incredible Embiid's performance is when he's healthy. In today's NBA, there are really not many players who can be at the top on both the offensive and defensive ends, and Embiid is one of them. There's a lot of discussion about whether he's the most dominant player in the league right now. A lot of people think he definitely is. For example, Xiao Zhang said: "When Embiid is in good physical condition, there is really no player who is more dangerous than him." This season he is the absolute ruler of the basket. ”
Another fan, Lao Li, feels that Embiid's comprehensiveness has reached a new level. He mentioned: "I think Embiid is not only a big threat under the basket right now, but he is also very consistent with his mid-range and long-range shooting. His growth is really so fast, it's just jaw-dropping. Lao Li's opinion is shared by many people, especially those fans who often watch the game, and they all feel that Embiid's all-round performance has overshadowed the other players.
In everyone's evaluation of Embiid, defensive ability is also often mentioned. For example, fan Xiao Wang left a message on social media: "Embiid's blocking ability is really invincible, especially in those critical moments, he can always jump up to prevent the opponent from scoring." Wang's words also drew a lot of concurring comments, with many fans believing that Embiid's defensive performance was often an important factor in the team's victory.
Moreover, it is not only the fans who are full of praise for Embiid, but also many professional analysts who have spoken highly of his performance. Analysts generally agree that Embiid's versatility and dominance have given him a prominent place in the league. They mentioned that "when healthy, Embiid is undoubtedly one of the most dangerous players in the entire league, and he has surprised both offensive and defensive ends. ”
