MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1022 Eternal nightmare!
Chapter 1022 1022. Eternal nightmare!
Yi Jianlian slapped the ball cleanly, hitting the backboard and bouncing it out.
The ball was grabbed by Wang Zhizhi.
Kobe rushes to grab the ball, Wang Zhizhi lifts the ball high, turns around, lobs the ball, and leads with the ball. Liu Xiu rushes to the center circle to catch the ball from Delong who is chasing him.
Delong followed Kobe's dog-skin plaster defense, and immediately stuck it back to Liu Xiu.
This kind of defense is effective, and it also makes the opponent extremely annoying.
Hinrich's defense is similar, but even more annoying, between Deron and Paul, in addition to sticking tightly, there are small moves.
Liu Xiu, who was served in turn by Kobe, Hinrich, and Deron tonight, was already used to it. She rushed to the frontcourt and took a step to make an emergency stop. Soo pounces...still too late.
Liu Xiu made a one-on-one three-pointer in the frontcourt!
The fans at the scene were screaming from the moment Yi Jianlian blocked the shot, and Liu Xiu's shot turned into wild cheers.
The lead of the Chinese team expanded to 15 points again, 107 to 92.
Not only that, Liu Xiu's personal score increased to 49 points.
Kobe’s super three-pointer just now boosted the morale of the US team, but was defeated by Liu Xiu’s ball!
When Hinrich ran back to receive Deron's serve and advance, his pace became faster.
The old K who was watching noticed this, but he didn't say anything to slow down the players.
At this time, the players will have their own rhythm. If they are anxious, the rhythm will naturally speed up and cannot be suppressed. After suppressing, the psychological rhythm and the playing rhythm will not be unified, which may affect their performance.
Not every player is named Duncan.
It is right to give trust. Hinrich advances to the frontcourt, picks and rolls with Kobe, pulls a step horizontally to avoid Li Nan's defense, takes off, and makes a three-point shot...hit!
But looking back, Li Nan received a second pass from Yi Jianlian and scored a three-pointer!
Liu Xiu is not the only one who is having fun!
The current goal of the Chinese team players is not only to win, but to let Yao Ming sit on the bench and watch them win!
The goal, in other words, is to send the game into garbage time! Send the Dream Team to Garbage Time!
When it came time for the U.S. team to attack, Howard caught the ball and pressed him up. With his broad shoulders, he separated Yi Jianlian who made up for it, and scored two points with a layup.
Using his body when attacking the frame, Beast is much better than the champion of parallel imports.
Looking back, Wang Zhizhi caught the ball and turned around to dribble, grabbed the ball, and made a throw with one step.
The two teams played back and forth!
After several rounds, the point difference fluctuated between 13 and 17 points. The Chinese team failed to continue to widen the point difference, but the US team also failed to substantially narrow the point difference.
The players of the US team are now shocked and angry. Several players on the other side have shown fatigue at the end of the third quarter.
But right now, that group is playing better than the third quarter.
It seemed like he was desperate for his life, playing desperately.
They thought about what the translators told them during the intermission—the other side wanted to bench Yao Ming.
Of course they understood what it meant, but at the time they took it as the warden's trash talk.
They are very sure that that guy will do such a meaningless thing, even if it doesn't work ten times out of ten, the other party will still try it for the eleventh time.
But they didn't expect that the players of the Chinese team were playing for real!
Really want to slap 'em in garbage time!
When it came time for the U.S. team to attack, Anthony, who played in rotation, was extremely annoyed.
110 to 121, with 11 points remaining!
In the transition between offense and defense, Liu Xiu held the ball to attack and decided to come by himself. He did not score in the past 4 minutes. The opponent may not have subjective awareness after he scored 49 points, but the attack on him was stricter. Multiple chances to score.
But now, he has to come by himself, and his teammates can hardly bear it anymore.
It is possible to wait until Yao Ming plays and replace Wang Zhizhi and Li Nan, but Liu Xiu is serious about the idea of "letting Yao Ming be the cold shoulder"!
In his opinion, to play the real-dream team, you must have such an ambition, and you must give your teammates such motivation in order to hold on to the victory!
Facing Deron's defense, Liu Xiu continued to break through!
Deron didn't keep up, but the confrontation he gave gave Kobe, who was defending in the middle, a chance to stick to Liu Xiu...but he couldn't stand it!
Liu Xiu still broke into the inside line, throwing while running...in!
51 points! Liu Xiu's personal score increased to 51 points!
Became the second player in the history of the Olympic men's basketball team to score 50+ points in a single game!
The U.S. team attacked, Anthony played a high single, took a step horizontally to one step inside the free throw line, took off, and made a mid-range shot.
112 to 123, the US team bit the score.
Both sides know that the critical moment has come, and now it depends on who can hold on, and whoever can hit a wave of climax.
The offense and defense switch, and the Chinese team attacks.
Liu Xiu continued to break through, but stopped after stepping into the three-point line, took off, and shot...
This ball is out of rhythm.
This position is not a good position either. Liu Xiu’s heels are still on the three-point line. Most people don’t practice this position when practicing shooting. If you step back 20 to 30 centimeters, it’s a three-point shot. It’s thankless to practice here.
So Delong only guarded against Liu Xiu's retreat, and Kobe, who was shrinking, was only worried about Liu Xiu's step outside the free throw line by two points, and no one rushed to interfere.
Liu Xiu made an emergency stop with one step and made a two-pointer!
The players of the US team scolded, Liu Xiu scored 53 points!
The point difference has reached 13 points again!
At the critical moment, Kobe stood up, hit Wang Shipeng with his back in the low post, turned over and hit a jumper.
It's time for Liu Xiu to attack again. This time Liu Xiu has just taken a big step outside the top arc, and Kobe directly pinches up!
Liu Xiu took a step to the left, changed direction and broke through to avoid Kobe's pincer attack. Hinrich blocked him from the left side, together with Deron and Kobe, blocked the breakthrough Liu Xiu within one step of the three-point line!
Li Nan and Wang Shipeng on the flanks were ready to catch and shoot, but Liu Xiu didn't pass.
He pulled up before being stuck, faced Kobe, yelled "Kobe", and threw the ball!
This voice startled Kobe, and Kobe, who confiscated his hand, slapped Liu Xiu on the arm that had already thrown the ball.
Less than 0.5 seconds after the ball left Liu Xiu's hand, the referee blew his whistle and Kobe fouled!
Kobe, who landed, had no time to think about what Liu Xiu was calling him for, when he heard the fans cheering again.
Turning his head to look, the bottom line referee made a two-point gesture.
This goal is scored! 2+1!
Liu Xiu received a system notification that the 'Kobe Time' command has been completed, scored 3 goals in a row, and 'Kobe Time' is on!
Kobe was annoyed, but they had defended to the extreme. Even if he didn't have a thug, the opponent continued to score.
But the cheers seem too enthusiastic...
Kobe turned his head and looked at the big screen above the middle circle. Sure enough, a record was about to be broken.
Brazilian player Oscar Schmidt led his team to a 118-110 victory over Spain in the 1988 South Korean Olympics, scoring an unprecedented 55 points in a single game.
Now, Liu Xiu has 55 points, and she got an extra penalty!
Looking at Liu Xiu walking to the free throw line, listening to the hundreds of thousands of people shouting "MVP" frantically, Kobe's thinking is diverging...
When Liu Xiu talks about him with others, he will call him by his first name, which is Kobe, but when talking to him, he always calls him by his middle name.
At the beginning, I heard Vanessa and his father Joe Bryant yell like that, and I deliberately learned to yell to tease him, and then I got used to it.
But why did you call him by his name this time?
At this time, Liu Xiujia made a free throw, and his single-game score increased to 56 points, breaking the Olympic single-game scoring record. The screams of the fans at the scene woke Kobe from his cranky thoughts again.
Kobe doesn't have time to think about what's there and what's not.
Why did Liu Xiu call Kobe when shooting? This will become a question that Kobe will not be able to figure out for decades to come.
He didn't want to ask Liu Xiu either, he knew that this guy would never tell him.
The two teams took advantage of Liu Xiu's free throw to make a substitution.
For the US team, the combination of Kidd, Kobe, Prince, Anthony, and Bosh was replaced.
What surprised old K was that Yao Ming was not replaced on the opposite side!
As expected of a silver fox! Really dare!
Yao Ming was also very surprised. He thought his teammates were joking around, but it turned out that it was real! The coach also bullied him!
His **** is raised up! Hey!
This kind of thing...
This kind of thing...
He wants the finals to happen every two years!
Zhu Fangyu replaced Li Nan on the stage, and the other four remained unchanged!
Not to mention, Silver Fox's operation really boosted the morale of the team members.
Kobe once again played back low, attracting a pinch and pointing the ball to Bosh who was pulled to the bottom corner. In this position, Bosh can throw a three-pointer!
But when Bosh was about to throw the ball, Yi Jianlian made up for it!
Bosh was forced to add a back... iron!
Liu Xiu protects the defensive rebound and advances quickly!
After Liu Xiu rushed through the middle circle, a group of people on the opposite side blocked him.
Liu Xiu made a steady hand, the time came, and the ball...
'Kobe Time' is triggered, but it doesn't have to be used.
Zhu Fangyu, who just came on the court, took the ball and took a step to the right at a 45-degree angle, took off, and shot a three-pointer...
After resting for half a quarter, he came up, his hands didn't feel cold, and he was burned by the flame in his heart!
Three-point hit!
131 to 114, the point difference came to 17 points!
When it came time for the U.S. team to attack, this time Kobe also lost his aim and missed a three-pointer with a retreat.
Looking back, Liu Xiu cuts in and catches Wang Zhizhi's point to head Bosh for a layup.
Hi!
Wang Zhizhi sent the ball to Liu Xiu from the crowd. The U.S. team failed to pinch Liu Xiu at the first time because it never expected that Wang Zhizhi would pass the ball.
At this time, the players of the US team were already dazed and numb, and their thoughts became simpler.
Singles, throw the ball in.
Don't let Liu Xiu score.
The point difference fluctuated from about 15 points to about 20 points.
At 8 minutes and 11 seconds of the fourth quarter, Wang Zhizhi made a three-pointer from the top arc, but Bosh couldn't stand up to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu jumped behind Bosh and pushed the ball back to the basket through Bosh!
The referee wanted to blow the whistle, but it was not a defensive foul. Liu Xiu had a tendency to make an offensive foul.
But in the end it didn't blow...
It may be because Liu Xiu is a small guard, and Bosh, a center who is two meters and a few meters, can't stand it. Calling the small guard's offensive foul is too much.
another reason-
If the deduction counts this time, he made 20 of 34 shots, including 8 of 14 three-pointers and 12 of 14 free throws. Liu Xiu's single-game score increased to 60 points, creating the first 60+ in a single game of the Olympic men's basketball event. !
60 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks!
Old K called a timeout and replaced the desperate players.
He could feel that even the last energy of the team members was taken away by Liu Xiu's supplementary buckle.
144 to 122, 22 points difference, without Liu Xiu's make-up dunk, the point difference has come to 20 points, two minutes, basically equal to no chance, the opponent can even block their three-pointers and give up defending the basket.
The only reason they are still actively defending is that Liu Xiu has not yet scored 60 points.
Now Liu Xiu has 60 points to get...
Old K can imagine that today's game will become an indelible nightmare for his players!
It will also be an unforgettable nightmare in his career...
For the Chinese team, Silver Fox replaced Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, Sun Yue, Wang Lei, and Du Feng.
Only these 5 people didn't play tonight. At this time, there is no need to think about who will be replaced during garbage time. Silver Fox is in a better mood.
Seeing that the seven main players were all sitting on the bench, the fans once again went crazy.
Garbage time!
Real garbage time!
Shot the Dream Team into Garbage Time!
American team, old K now wants five assistant coaches to play the last garbage time.
Then let’s change players casually. The youngest players, Paul, Wade, James, Bosh, and Beast, were replaced.
Silver Fox's five ups and five downs did not make it to Yao Ming, which really made Yao Ming sit on the bench at the end of the quarter. This operation was unreasonable.
But the five players who went up did not waste time. Amidst the cheers of the fans, Liu Wei and Sun Yue spent time on the offensive end. They listened to Jonas and did not shoot outside if they could shoot from close range; on the defensive end, outside players Try to shoot inside as much as possible, inside players retreat to defend after outside players take shots, and try to defend three-pointers and grab rebounds in positional warfare...
They know that playing in the last minute or so is because the head coach wants to give them the appearance record of winning the final, not what they expect them to do.
In the last minute or so, the U.S. team played a wave of 6-0. The five players of the Chinese team did not score a single point. They really recorded their names in the playing list.
But they are already satisfied...
At 4:58 pm on August 24, 2008, the long whistle sounded at the BJ Bird's Nest Stadium.
The referee confirms the end of the game, the technical desk confirms the score, and the result of the game is posted on the big screen.
Led by Liu Xiu, who played 38 minutes and scored 60 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks, the Chinese team beat the US team 144-128 and won the Olympic men's basketball championship!
The moment the final whistle sounded, the whole bird's nest was like a riot!
Hundreds of thousands of people cheered wildly, and everyone shouted something different.
Some people called Liu Xiu's nickname, some people called Yao Ming's nickname, some people sang "We are the champions", some... Gradually, the voices of the fans at the scene converged into the same song - "Five Stars The red flag is waving in the wind..."
On the field, the Chinese players were also celebrating wildly.
Everyone has tears and snot all over their faces... Not all of them, Liu Xiu ran a long way, opened the teammates who came next to him one by one, looked up at the closed ceiling at a 45-degree angle, and stubbornly kept the tears from falling …
This scene looks handsome from a distance, but the big screen, multiple screens at the scene, and the live broadcast are all close-ups. The scene of Liu Xiu's facial features gathering and trying not to let tears fall touched the laughter of many people. .
The singing of "Singing the Motherland" by the fans at the scene added some laughter.
Really moved, excited and happy.
Liu Xiu, who was concentrating on keeping her tears from falling, didn't notice this... After Tieshan came, another dark history came.
At this time, the system prompts!
"The host has completed the Olympic Games + World Championship double crown achievement, congratulations to the host for obtaining the achievement reward: Golden Age (Buff)."
"Golden Age (Buff): There are more children in China stepping on the court because of the host, because the host has the urge to try to play basketball, and more parents are willing to let their children spend some time on basketball because of the host, to strengthen their bodies. Get fit, enjoy the joy of basketball, keep fit, and have a healthy and happy teenage years."
