The Godfather of Basketball

At the moment of qualifying in the group, the Chinese team has tied history.

And now, they have a chance to make new history.

Wukesong was extremely lively this night.

In the arena, all kinds of KT boards were held high, the national flag was waving, and many fans even tattooed the national flag on their faces and clothes. Some fan groups even put on uniform red T-shirts to cheer for the Chinese team Cheer...

Wukesong is like the home court of the NBA playoffs, and the enthusiasm of the fans is unprecedentedly high.

The game between the US team and the Australian team came to an end, and the moment the Chinese team and the Argentine players entered the stadium, the scene was already boiling.

After a simple warm-up, the players from both sides were introduced one after another.

When every member of the Chinese team was called by name, there was a burst of cheers at the scene, as if it had been agreed in advance, and the arena was full of momentum.

The Argentine players looked envious.

Hosting the Olympics requires national strength, and Argentina does not have this strength, and they will not be able to enjoy the feeling of playing at home in the Olympics.

With the introduction of the players, the starting lineups of both sides will also be announced.

The Chinese team still maintained the previous starting lineup, with Liu Wei and Sun Yue on the outside, Zhu Fangyu and Yi Jianlian on the front line, and Yao Ming at the center.

For the Argentine team, the starting point guard is Prigioni, who plays for the Spanish League. He is partnered with Ginobili in the backcourt, and Nocioni, who played for the Bulls, joined the Rockets last season. The team's Luis Scola, the center is played for the Spurs Oberto.

With the whistle of the referee and the cheers of the fans, Yao Ming turned the ball back to the Chinese team's half, and the final game of the quarterfinals officially started.

Amidst the cheers of the fans, Sun Yue advanced the ball to the frontcourt, and then handed the ball to Yao Ming.

The moment Yao Ming received the ball, the other four began to do off-ball pick-and-rolls and runs along the three-point line.

Tang Tian had studied the Argentine team's game video many times before the game. Because the opponent has a strong ability to help and switch defenses, based on the previous running tactics, he asked the players to spread the space as much as possible.

The tacit understanding between each other allowed the Argentine team to do a good job on the defensive end, and the Chinese team did not have any chances for continuous running.

Yao Ming saw that there was no chance from the outside line, so he turned around and went to the basket to attack.

Scola quickly returned to the defense, and Yao Ming saw a small hook after turning around.

"Shua!"

The basketball went over Scola's palm and landed firmly.

The Chinese team took the lead.

The cheers on the scene were loud, and the fans shouted excitedly, clapping their hands and waving them non-stop.

Argentina's offense, Prigioni dribbled to the top of the circle to organize, and the rest of the team began to run back and forth.

The offense of the Argentine team is a bit like the Spurs. Scola and Nocioni set up a pick-and-roll on the left and right sides. run back and forth.

Prigioni asked Scola to do a pick-and-roll. After breaking through, he flicked the ball back to Scola, and Scola made a direct shot from a high position.

"Shua!"

Argentina's attack also has.

At this moment, Tang Tian kept his eyes on the field.

Although Argentina is not in Europe, this style of play is similar to that of the Greek team. The defensive end of the Chinese team is a great test.

Sun Yue took the ball to the frontcourt and handed the ball to Yao Ming.

With the same tactics, the Argentine team's strict defense still did not give the Chinese team a good chance to make a move.

Yao Ming received the ball and continued to hit Oberto with his back. This time Scola's defense was in place earlier than before.

Yao Ming flicked the ball to Yi Jianlian outside, and Yi Jianlian took the ball from outside the three-point line.

However, his shot speed was slow, and Nocioni's help defense was in place, successfully interfering.

"boom!"

The ball hit the front of the rim, but rolled in anyway.

Yi Jianlian also scored a three-pointer!

The Chinese team scored 5 points in a row!

A burst of whistles have already sounded at the scene.

The Chinese team feels good, which is the feeling when they played against the Spanish team before.

Zhu Fangyu clapped hands with Yi Jianlian excitedly.

"Pay attention to changing defenses!" Tang Tian stood up from his seat at this moment and reminded his team members.

Against Argentina, there can be no slack.

Prigioni pushes upcourt, passes the ball to Ginobili, and Scolara picks and rolls high.

While running the pick-and-roll, Oberto blocked a pass to Nocioni, who went straight to the basket.

Ginobili stepped back to the three-point line after the pick-and-roll, attracted the defense and made a covert ground pass, and the ball flew straight to Nocioni.

Nocioni is a rare beast forward in South America. After getting the ball, he rushes up and is about to dunk.

"Snapped!"

But when he shot, Yi Jianlian's defense was in place, and he slapped his shot out of the bottom line.

After being reminded by Tang Tian for a while, Yi Jianlian looked very calm after blocking the shot, and turned around to find Scola again.

But at this time, the cheers on the scene burst, and the Chinese team played very tough on both ends of the offense and defense at the beginning of the game!

Argentina's sideline kick, Manu Ginobili missed a three-pointer, and the rebound was accepted by Yao Ming.

Going to the frontcourt again, Yao Ming met Yi Jianlian in a double team, and Yi Jianlian gave it to Zhu Fangyu. When Zhu Fangyu received the ball, he was open, but when he made the shot, Nocioni, who was helping to defend, had already swooped in.

"boom!"

After the ball was disturbed and failed to score again, Scola accepted the defensive rebound.

Looking back, it was still Ginobili's organization on the outside. "Demon Sword" showed off his maneuvers in this round. After a fake pass to the inside tricked Liu Wei, he shot a super long three-pointer one step away from the three-point line .

"Shua!"

With a crisp sound, Ginobili also scored a three-pointer.

The two teams tied 5-5!

Tang Tian had a serious expression at this moment.

This Argentine team is really strong. If it were four years ago, even the Chinese team he transformed would have no chance of winning.

Fortunately, they are no longer young.

The Chinese team's offense, Sun Yue missed a three-pointer from the outside, Yi Jianlian was faster than Oberto, and rushed to grab the offensive rebound.

If this was changed to the previous life, he would definitely be stronger if he picked it up, but after his basketball IQ improved, he directly returned the ball to the outside Liu Wei.

Liu Wei got an open chance and threw it away.

"Shua!"

Throw it, and the Chinese team returned a three-pointer.

The cheers on the scene resounded through the sky again.

The Chinese team made 3 of 4 shots in the opening game!

Feeling hot!

However, the cheers did not stop here. Looking back, Ginobili broke through to the basket in a snake shape, scored a layup with a dodge in the air, and caused Zhu Fangyu's thug foul.

Additional penalties were hit, and the two teams tied 8-8.

The palms of the fans at the scene were a little sweaty.

The scores rose alternately and were tied continuously. The intensity of the competition was the highest among the four quarter-finals.
