Chapter 272

After the American Dream Team finished changing their clothes, these NBA superstars all returned to the stadium to watch the match between Spain and China.

Spain is recognized as the enemy, at least the Gasol brothers plus Ibaka's inside combination is tough enough to wrestle with the Dream Team.The Chinese team is purely because they want to see Tang Wenlong. The latter has a great reputation in the NBA, and he has basically taken all the honors in the shrinking season. Which of the stars present has never played against him, and who doesn't know Tang Wenlong's horror and incomprehension The place.

"The Spanish small forward is too thin and weak to stand up to Tang Wenlong." James commented on Fernandez's defense, thinking that Tang Wenlong's breakthrough in the international arena was a bit like his bulldozer style.

Next to him is Andre Iguodala. The two are jealous in the NBA, but they are teammates in the national team.

Andre Iguodala said with a smile: "If we play Spain, the two sides of the flank can cut through them, but their zone defense is really troublesome, helping defense and double-teaming every minute."

While speaking, the first quarter of the game was over, and Spain led the Chinese team by 17 points 15 to 2.

On the Internet, Chinese fans are excited.Throughout the history of the Chinese team's international competitions, it has been a long time since they competed against top European teams like this. Tang Wenlong's sudden emergence gave fans hope for the Chinese men's basketball team, especially at the scene of the London Olympics. It is true that new history will be written. The only pity is that Tang Wenlong was not able to play with Yao Ming.

"Do you need to rest?" Deng Huade looked at Tang Wenlong fiercely, and asked questions.

Tang Wenlong waved his hand, "Coach, this consumption is too low. The four quarters add up to 40 minutes at most. In the NBA playoffs, I basically play that long in every game. But at that level Confrontation is not what the current confrontation in Spain can give me, I feel that I can play 10 minutes in the international arena."

Yi Jianlian was full of envy. He claims to be the top Asian in terms of physical fitness, but compared with Tang Wenlong, he was obviously far behind. When he was starting for the Nets before, his state would decline after more than 10 minutes of the game, especially in the first game. At the critical moment of the fourth quarter, others played more and more fiercely, but he seldom performed explosively, so he often lost the trust of the coach at critical moments.

The second quarter started, and the two teams continued to play.

Spain replaced Ibaka, "The Bomb" Navarro, Fernando San Meriteo and Felipe Reyes.The Chinese team replaced Zhu Fangyu, Chen Jianghua and Ding Jinhui. Tang Wenlong moved to the position of shooting guard. Deng Huade hoped that Chen Jianghua would work harder to hit the basket.

Spain's substitute lineup may also have the upper hand against some second- and third-rate countries in the international arena.Especially Navarro and Ibaka, who can play inside and outside, complement each other with offense and defense.

The new small forward San Meriteo who came up to play against Tang Wenlong is a tonnage-level No. [-] and [-]. He is not fast but very resistant.

Against such an opponent, Tang Wenlong used his dexterity and speed to break through, which was quite different from the crushing confrontation against Fernandez just now.

Tang Wenlong's efficiency is high, he can easily enter the hinterland of Spain, and then calmly distribute the ball to teammates who are open outside.Sometimes, he can also enter the inside line to attract double-teams and then distribute to the empty Chinese inside line under the basket. Of course, such cases are relatively rare. Spain's strategy is generally to cut the inside line and empty the outside line.

It's a pity that the shooting percentage of his teammates was mediocre. Even when no one was interfering, there were many missed shots, which made Tang Wenlong vomit a mouthful of old blood.

When the Gasol brothers returned, Spain had a clear advantage in the inside line. After a burst of madness, they established a 5-point lead at halftime.

Deng Huade can't ask for more, Tang Wenlong has simply achieved the ultimate, the veterans of the Chinese team are a little blushing, no matter how Tang Wenlong is a superstar in the NBA, he is only a rookie in the second year of the Chinese national team, and his age is too old. It's just a little bit bigger than Guo Ailun, who just entered the national team in summer. He was fed the ball like this before. It was the era of Yao Ming, but the problem is that Yao Ming's passing is not as comfortable as Tang Wenlong's. After adjusting the angle and After the strength, Tang Wenlong almost stretched out his arms to deliver the ball to everyone.

Morale is a very mysterious thing. In ancient wars, if a fortified city cannot be attacked for a long time, the morale of the army will be weakened.When the Chinese team felt cold, not only did the morale go wild, but the bad feel was contagious. For example, Yi Jianlian, who performed best in the first half, also began to strike iron frequently in the second half.

Three minutes before the start of the second half, the Chinese team called another timeout. At this time, Spain had already led the Chinese team by 3 points 47 to 37.

"We did a good job, defending against Spain's attack!" Tang Wenlong loudly encouraged his teammates, he felt the need to increase his own attack.

Back from the timeout, Tang Wenlong challenged Fernandez single-handedly at the top of the arc, his crotch changed direction to the left, and the front of his body crossed sharply again, passing Fernandez with one step, and then took a step horizontally, holding the ball with both hands and pointing upwards.Fernandez, who was known as the "Spanish Flying Man", had no time to think about it, so he soared into the air. In the air, he saw that the soles of Tang Wenlong's feet seemed to have taken root, and he didn't move at all, and he yelled in his heart.

Tang Wenlong raised his arm again, and leaned against Fernandez sideways.

He only heard a "beep" whistle and earned two free throw opportunities.

This is a powerful message to the Chinese team. Fernandez had to leave the court early because of three fouls. You must know that in the international arena, you will leave after five fouls. If Fernandez has four fouls, I am afraid he will not I no longer dare to act.

It was San Meriteo who was replaced, and he was also the one who couldn't guard Tang Wenlong.There is no difference on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, without Fernandez, Spain's outside firepower and impact have dropped significantly.

Tang Wenlong took the opportunity to play a pick-and-roll with Yi Jianlian, and San Meriteo was better at blocking it. Tang Wenlong and Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll effect soared.As soon as Gasol delayed Tang Wenlong, Tang Wenlong went directly to Yi Jianlian to attack the basket. Gasol's ability to cover the sky could not prevent the joint attack of Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi.

At the end of the third quarter, Spain only led the Chinese team by 55 points 49 to 6.

In the fourth quarter, Tang Wenlong still did not rest for a minute, and the game was anxious until the last minute. With Tang Wenlong's ultra-long three-pointer, the Chinese team chased 1 to 1 and only fell behind by 67 points. This three-pointer was three points away. There was still a meter away from the point line, and he shot with a fadeaway. The stars of the US team also applauded and whistled.

Spain paused, and after the timeout came back, Gasol was forced to beat Yi Jianlian inside.

Yi Jianlian actually defended toughly, and Gasol's All-Star insider actually didn't push through the fringe players on the team who were about to lose their place in the NBA.In the end, I chose to turn around and hook my hands. When the posture was in the air, it was deformed, which was very awkward.

Iguodala shook his head straight, Gasol actually still used such a soft offensive method at this time.For example, if he encounters an opponent who is thinner and weaker than himself, of course he will turn around without a doubt, crushing and breaking through with his head, why is he so gentle?
Sure enough, the ball didn't go in, but Gasol turned around and relied on his height and wingspan to grab the somewhat high rebound again. Then he slapped the ball with both hands, shouted angrily and knocked Yi Jianlian away. A dunk!
The game time is less than the last 50 seconds.
