Chapter 1314 Victory Is in Sight! (10/10!)
Chapter 1314 Victory is in sight! (1010!)
81 to 78!
Zhou Peng's three-point hit helped the Chinese team gain a key three-point lead!
Li Chunjiang also shook his fist excitedly. His former disciple became a veteran in a blink of an eye, but he is still trustworthy at critical moments!
Popovich shook his head unconsciously.
The Chinese team played at home, and all of them were beaten like chicken blood.
If it was the usual key ball, he didn't believe that the Chinese team could make it.
But if there is no if, this is also a bonus for the host.
Harden's frontcourt singles Ding Yanyuhang caused the latter's defensive foul.
In terms of one-on-one, there is a huge gap in strength between the two, and they dare not double-team the Chinese team.
Harden made two free throws, and the US team narrowed the point difference to 1 point.
Many fans at the scene gasped for breath, and the game was too tense and exciting.
The two sides have alternately led countless times, and the point difference has never been in double digits.
Before the game, many fans from other countries felt that the game would lose its enjoyment due to one-sidedness, but it turned out that their worries were completely unnecessary.
Such a game is fully worthy of a World Cup final, and it can even be said to be the most exciting one.
Ding Yanyuhang was double-teamed again in the frontcourt. This time, the US team accelerated the defense rotation, and Zhou Peng had no chance to open.
Yi Jianlian held the ball and wanted to return it to Ding Yanyuhang, but Leonard stopped him.
There was not much time left in the attack. Yi Jianlian glanced at George, who had switched to defending himself, and chose to break through with the ball.
George gave enough confrontation and tried to cut the ball.
Yi Jianlian was forced to stop, and there was no time for him to make another move, so he was forced to turn around and lean back on the golden rooster to make an independent shot.
This ball is very difficult.
The block that George swooped up almost forced him to complete the shot when he fell.
And the moment after he shot, the red light on the sidelines was on.
It's a buzzer shot.
"Shua!"
But the ball was thrown in by Yi Jianlian!
The cheers at the scene exploded instantly.
At this time, Tang Tian couldn't help but stood up and raised his hands to cheer for Yi Jianlian.
This ball is really difficult and really critical.
This scene also reminded the fans of the scene when they played against Nigeria in the previous group stage.
In that game, Yi Jianlian almost helped the team win by himself, and made many Chinese fans cry.
Facts proved that it was not his curtain call. Like Zhou Peng, he played the role of a veteran in the most critical games!
Harden missed a three-pointer with a step-back in the frontcourt, the ball bounced out of bounds, and the game entered dead-ball time.
At this moment, Li Chunjiang replaced Yi Jianlian and Ding Yanyuhang with Tang Tian and Abdul Saramu.
On the US side, Curry and Durant also returned to the court.
This means that the Chinese team survived the first two minutes of substitute transition!
Tang Tian clapped hands with Yi Jianlian and Ding Yanyuhang when he was on the court, and gave his best affirmation to their performance.
Tang Tian rested off the court for two minutes, recovering a lot of physical fitness, and took over the offense of the Chinese team after playing now.
However, the Chinese team still has little to do with the US team on the defensive end, and the scores of the two teams have been stalemate.
And Curry also found his touch when he needed him most, and made two large three-pointers in a row.
Five minutes into this quarter, the US team led the Chinese team 89-85 in turn.
Li Chunjiang stretched out his hand and called a timeout.
The fans at the scene gasped, and Curry regained his touch. This is by no means good news for them.
But Tang Tian looked up at the scoreboard at the end of the field, but his eyes were extremely confident.
Death assist, this golden skill he didn't use much in the World Cup, he used it once against Cameroon and once against Greece.
There were only two times in total, but the experience he got from these two times is that unless the opponent can pull the score apart in three and a half quarters.
Otherwise, the last five minutes would be the time for him to show off his skills.
Or in other words, even if the opponent is the US team, the victory of the Chinese team is already within sight!
4 points behind in 5 minutes, the opponent is the US team, and the players of the Chinese team are visibly nervous.
After reaching this point, they are also worried that they will fall short like the Spanish team.
But seeing the confident expression on Tang Tian's face, their tension eased a lot.
With Tang Tian around, they have a chance.
After Li Chunjiang arranged the tactics, Tang Tian took the conversation directly.
"Just like the previous games, if you have the opportunity, you can shoot with confidence and boldness. This is our home field, and luck will be on our side."
What Tang Tian said made the team members feel more relaxed.
Because they knew that Tang Tian's words were not just words.
After a timeout, the two sides entered the final five minutes of decisive battle.
Many fans at the scene stretched out their hands and patted their chests. In the four-year World Series, with a 4-point difference, the world champion belongs.
These five minutes can really make people have a heart attack.
Back from the timeout, Popovich once again showed his courage and entered the strongest defensive lineup.
Thompson, George, Durant, Leonard, Drummond.
He knows very well that defense is the key to deciding the outcome at this time.
Especially when you have the lead.
And taking a step back, the offense of this lineup is not bad!
With the ball possession of the Chinese team, Tang Tian broke through with the ball in the frontcourt, and the American team double-teamed decisively and quickly.
Tang Tian double-teamed the ball to Abdul Saramu on the outside.
However, the U.S. team has a very strong defensive lineup. After the defense rotation on the field, Durant has switched to Abdul Saramu, with his long arms covered.
Abdul Saramu gave the ball to Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian made a feint from the outside line and missed the emergency stop jump shot near the free throw line.
Drummond received the defensive rebound, and the Chinese team missed the first attack after a timeout.
The defense of the US team's lineup is really strong.
However, the Chinese team defended a full-court press in the frontcourt, releasing Drummond as they did at the end of the first half.
Popovich saw that Li Chunjiang was going to repeat the same trick, so he stretched out his hand and called a timeout.
"I pass the ball, shoot it, don't pass it, trust yourself to make it."
During the timeout, Tang Tian pulled Abdul Saramu and said.
He almost said that I have a system, and you will definitely get in if you vote.
And his decibels are very loud, not only Abdul Saramu, but also everyone else heard it.
Abdul Saramu nodded.
Back from the timeout, Popovich replaced Drummond with Turner.
Leonard turned around and scored a layup in the frontcourt.
91 to 85, the US team has widened the point difference to 6 points.
The fans at the scene felt a little difficult to breathe.
This game is really killing people.
They are really afraid that the Chinese team will collapse in the end like the Spanish team.
Even they all looked at Tang Tian on the field at the same time. At this time, Tang Tian should stand up again.
After Tang Tian's breakthrough in the frontcourt, he still chose to pass the ball after double-teaming.
Many fans at the scene were worried for a while, why did Tang Tian become possessed by James!
This time it was Yi Jianlian who caught the ball, and he made a direct three-pointer against Durant.
The fans at the scene were all suffocated.
PK between Chinese Durant and American Yi Jianlian.
A crucial shot.
Durant's long arm interfered enough, and Yi Jianlian was forced to raise the arc when he shot.
This ball is tough.
When Durant saw the ball pass his fingertips, he knew that his defense was mostly successful.
"Shua!"
But just after he turned his head, his eyes were full of disbelief.
Go in!
Yi Jianlian, bukkake him!
