This was a very crucial goal that excited the entire American team.
At Carioca Stadium, Thompson's three-pointer caused the cheers of the fans at the scene to stop, and the tense and exciting atmosphere quickly spread.
Dayao couldn't help but reach out and wipe the sweat from his face. He recalled the moment against Spain in 2008, when he broke his leg to prevent Gasol's goal.
After fighting for a whole game, the feeling of losing at the last moment was the most despairing. He didn't want the Chinese men's basketball team to make the same mistake again this time.
Fortunately, the Chinese team had Wang Zelin, who broke through the three-man double-team and sent the ball into the basket.
118:117, the score is overtaken.
"Defend! Defend!"
The fans at the scene once again cheered for the Tianchao team.
Across the ocean, there are countless fans cheering for the Chinese team.
The members of the Chinese team were encouraged on the court and successfully defended in the first 20 seconds.
But at the last moment, it was Thompson again who caught the ball and made a difficult turnaround jumper to score the ball!
Buddha’s light shines everywhere!
With Durant in front and Thompson behind, the two scoring machines are working hard one after another!
The scores alternately lead, and the hearts of countless spectators also rise and fall, and some of them have quietly taken out the Suxiao Jiuxin Pill from their arms.
The level of anxiety in this game is beyond imagination.
Looking back, Wang Zelin was holding the ball at the top of the arc, and the red wave in the Carioca Stadium kept shouting "MVP, MVP..."
Although many players of the American men's basketball team have received such cheers in games, on this night, everyone knew exactly who the cheers were for.
"Isn't he really tired?" Durant asked from the short corner on the left what all the American men's basketball players were thinking.
"Whether he is tired or not, we will win this game anyway, even if Jesus comes, we can't stop him!" Green said fiercely with a cold light in his eyes.
When necessary, he was ready to make extra moves.
From the outside, Wang Zelin signaled his teammates to open up the space.
At this point, the Tianchao team had only one offensive tactic, which was to open up and hand the ball to Wang Zelin for a single.
Because this can reduce mistakes and avoid giving the American team an opportunity to easily counterattack.
Durant, who was responsible for guarding Wang Zelin, stayed close to Wang Zelin. Although Wang Zelin had scored more than 50 points tonight, he always believed that he could defeat Wang Zelin with the strong overall strength of the American team.
However, some people happen to be born for miracles!
Snap, snap, snap!
After dribbling continuously, Wang Zelin suddenly started to speed up.
He is like an eagle soaring in the sky. He aims at his prey and kills it with precision, and he is sure to hit it with one hit.
Durant was deceived by Wang Zelin's dazzling movements, and then he could only watch Wang Zelin pass him and kill towards the penalty area...
Green had anticipated that Durant would be unable to guard him, so he quickly shrank in and flanked Wang Zelin with DeAndre Jordan.
Facing the double-team of the two men, Wang Zelin flew high and dunked the ball hard into the basket.
119:118, the United States team attacked, Green played a pick-and-roll with Durant on the outside, Zhai Xiaochuan failed to steal it, but fortunately his goal was very clear, just follow Durant.
Green immediately hit a jumper...
Well, forget it if you say that Green has a good hand in dealing cards tonight, after all, this trick is one of his unique skills...
But shooting...
Sorry, the American team is overflowing with offensive talent. There is no need for him to show his offensive ability in the past. He hasn't made a move for a long time. This is an unexpected reversal.
Duang～
That Mamba character, Golden State chasing Green!
Durant looked helpless, but thinking that this guy was a prospective teammate next season, he could only dare to be angry but dare not say anything.
Under the basket, Zhou Qi grabbed his 10th rebound of the game, reaching double figures tonight.
He then handed it over to Wang Zelin and slowly advanced forward.
A goal was successfully dropped in front, and the fans in the audience were excited again.
Every goal scored at the moment is very crucial. As long as they can score in the next round, the Tianchao team is likely to break through the previous game rhythm of alternately rising scores and further expand their advantage.
When he reached the frontcourt, Wang Zelin did not rush to break through, but directed his teammates to move.
Except for Zhou Qi, Zhai Xiaochuan, Zhou Peng, and Yi Jianlian, all three points were running around the pick-and-roll without the ball. Yi Jianlian went around to the bottom corner after pretending to cut in.
Wang Zelin single-handedly drove inside, attracting most of the American team's defensive attention, and then passed the ball without looking at anyone, passing the ball to Yi Jianlian in the bottom corner.
A rare opportunity to get a seat!
With one minute left in the game, the Chinese team successfully played a tactic.
You must go in!
At the scene, fans in front of the TV were praying in their hearts.
Green quickly made up the defense and pounced on Yi Jianlian, who made a three-pointer.
"Shua——!"
"Beep~"
Green threw the ball very fiercely, almost inserting his left hand into Yi Jianlian's eye, violating Yi Jianlian's original body and triggering the referee's whistle.
After being fouled, Yi Jianlian withstood the pressure, maintained his shooting hand, and made the open three-pointer!
Just like at the last moment against Spain in 2008, the fledgling player Yi Jianlian hit a key shot, but this time it was a three-pointer!
Not only do you have Mr. Key, we also have one here!
After Yi Jianlian scored, all the players on the bench of the Chinese team jumped up, waving towels wildly, cheering and shouting.
Green held his head in his hands, in disbelief.
How could he have imagined that the Asian guy who relied on Wang Zelin's connections to get into the Trail Blazers through the back door, a mediocre kite guy in the NBA, would actually score 3 1 on him.
Coach K also put his hand on his forehead.
This 3 vs. 1 severely damaged the morale of the American team and increased the opponent's prestige. Moreover, this goal is likely to directly affect the final victory.
Zhou Qi and Zhou Peng, who were preparing to rush for rebounds in the penalty area, were very excited and rushed to Yi Jianlian's side and yelled.
Yi Jianlian, however, seemed extra calm, walked to the free throw line and adjusted his breathing.
When they lost to Spain at home, Yao Ming wanted to break his legs, and so did he. He didn't want the Chinese men's basketball team to make the same mistake again and fall on the last goal.
This time he seized the opportunity, and now he needs to expand it even more.
call!
Adjust your breathing and start adding penalties.
There was only sporadic interference at the scene, and the tens of thousands of remaining fans all held their breaths, not daring to breathe for fear of affecting his performance.
"Clang!"
What was unexpected was that the crucial extra penalty and the huge psychological pressure caused Yi Jianlian to miss the shot.
"Backboard!" x2
The head coaches on both sides roared immediately.
But at this moment, when Wang Zelin was secretly elbowed by Ge Zhong, he gritted his teeth and grunted, and used his long arm to flick the basketball.
The basketball was flicked and then fell into the net bag, and it went in with a "swish" sound!
A crucial tip-in turned the missed free throw into two points. The Chinese team scored 5 points in a row. The score between the two sides became 124:118, and the lead expanded to 6 points in the blink of an eye!
In this wave, the Tianchao team is really making a lot of money!
It can be said that Qin Shihuang ate peppercorns - he was numb!
"Damn, how could this happen?"
Coach K was so anxious that he stamped his feet and paced back and forth on the sidelines.
The expression of the American men's basketball team also dimmed. A sudden wave of 5:0 made their mentality begin to collapse.
In front of the TV, many American fans seemed to have seen the coming strength.
If after the first half, the Americans were convinced of the dominance of the dream team, after the third quarter, the dominance of the dream team began to be a big question mark in their hearts, then now...
…
Gift crab!
Are we about to capsize?
…
Is the men’s basketball team going to win?!
I glanced at the direction of the scoreboard and saw that there were less than 50 seconds left before the end of the game, and the Chinese team was still 6 points ahead of their opponents. The Chinese fans at the scene were breathing faster involuntarily.
In the live commentary booth, all the commentators, including Zhang Lili, could not control their vibrato when speaking.
Who would have thought that the surprise would come so unexpectedly, from leading to overtaking, then leading to overtaking again, and then another wave of alternating leads, until the last moment when the Tianchao men's basketball team reversed the score again...
This ups and downs battle between China and the United States can be called the most classic game in the history of international basketball competitions!
Back on the court, even though the American team was already 6 points behind with 48 seconds left before the end of the game, they still had no intention of giving up.
The U.S. team attacks, Jordan sinks down to grab the offensive rebound, and Green holds the ball at the top of the arc to organize.
Durant and Thompson moved from both sides, constantly cutting in and out to occupy space.
George is ambushing at the baseline, always ready to shrink to the basket or pull out from the outside to receive open balls.
Thompson scored 5 points in a row, attracting most of the Chinese team's defensive attention, and Durant got a chance to catch the ball.
He caught the ball, turned around and shot a jumper, and then saw Wang Zelin rushing towards him.
The distance between the two was a bit far, but the moment Durant took the shot, he was instinctively afraid, and the ball shook slightly.
"Clang!"
There was a crisp sound, Durant's opportunity, the ball did not grasp the basketball and bounced out of the frame.
Zhou Peng and Yi Jianlian blocked Jordan on the left and right, and Thompson rushed over to steal the chicken, but Zhou Peng was still able to take the lead and struggled to protect the priceless defensive rebound.
At this time, the height advantage of the five dead generals of the Chinese Dynasty was fully demonstrated.
Zhou Peng held the ball tightly in his arms until he saw Wang Zelin coming to help him, then he handed the ball over.
"Well done Dapeng!"
"At critical moments, veterans are still reliable!"
"Fight back! Fight back!"
Every Chinese fan on the hotline was more excited than the other.
The Chinese team still holds a 6-point lead, and there are only 30 seconds left before the end of the game. Even if the next goal is not scored, as long as the time runs out, the Chinese team will win the game with a high probability.
In other words, Zhou Peng's rebounding contribution is simply not that great.
Wang Zelin advanced to the frontcourt and stopped two steps beyond the three-point line. It seemed that he planned to run out the attack time.
How could old coach K let him get his wish? He shouted towards the court: "What are you waiting for? It's time to foul!"
The American team still didn't want to give up. Durant rushed up and hit Wang Zelin hard on the right wrist.
Standing on the free throw line, with the two beautiful sounds of "swish" and "swish", I made two free throws.
Wang Zelin's key goals never disappoint.
In the last 26 seconds, the American team made a quick start from the backcourt. Green passed a long pass to Durant. Durant moved to a 45-degree position on the left side of the frontcourt and took a shot against Yi Jianlian's defense.
"Whoosh!"
Death came and three points hit the net.
126:121, the point difference was narrowed to 5 points.
American fans rekindled hope for a comeback.
Wang Zelin was fouled after catching the ball in the backcourt and went to the free throw line again.
The entire audience was silent, and all attention was focused on No. 20 of the Chinese team on the field.
The first penalty~shua!
The hope of American fans is slowly dimming.
The second penalty~shua!
Once again, two free throws were made, and the fire of hope of the American fans was instantly extinguished.
What a hot man, so stable!
The American team once again grabbed three points, everyone pulled away, and the ball was given directly to Durant.
There are not many tactics, this is to put the hope of the final overtake on Durant.
There was not much time left, and Durant didn't make too many fancy moves. When he got to the same position, he stopped the ball and hit another pull-up three-pointer.
"Snapped!"
But the moment he took action, something happened that no one expected.
Wang Zelin came out of nowhere and blocked Durant again!
At the moment of transition between offense and defense, no one could react. Wang Zelin was already dribbling the ball and rushing towards the frontcourt.
In the first try, he had already passed half the court.
On the second play, he had already rushed into the three-point line.
At the last moment, he stepped on the free throw line and took off.
Durant stood frozen in place as if petrified, and other players on the American team did not dare to be direct.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, Wang Zelin took off from the free throw line and dunked the ball in with one hand, completing the game in an incredible way.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! All the fans at the scene were stunned. They didn't react until the referee blew the whistle to signal the American team members to quickly serve the ball in the backcourt.
Is this guy really a human?
This game has not stopped for a minute since the beginning, and he was able to complete a dunk from the free throw line in the last ten seconds.
Murder, and heart-wrenching?!
Immediately afterwards, there was an explosion of cheers in the arena.
The psychological defense of the American men's basketball team was completely defeated. At the end of the 17 seconds, they did not organize an attack after passing the half court, but quietly waited for time to pass.
As the game entered the last 10 seconds of the countdown, more than 10,000 Chinese fans in Hall 1 of Carioca Stadium in Brazil all stood up and looked at the big screen to start the countdown:
"10!"
"9!"
"..."
"3!"
"2!"
"1!!!"
"Du~~~"
As the electronic buzzer sounded that symbolized the end of the game, George put the ball on the floor with a depressed expression, took one last look at No. 20 of the Chinese team opposite, and then followed his teammates back to the team's bench.
"Win! Gold medal! The Chinese team won the Olympic gold medal! We are the Olympic champions!!!"
Zhang Li, the eldest, suffered a heart attack and jumped up from his seat.
I felt as if I was 30 years younger at this moment. After leaving the commentary box, I rushed toward the opposite bench like the wind.
Zhang Lili Bryant Zelin Weiping is excited!
The fans at the scene were excited!
Chinese fans across the ocean are excited!
Dayao and Hu Weidong hugged each other excitedly!
God, he originally thought that being able to wear his No. 13 jersey on the post-game podium of the Final Four would be enough to satisfy him.
I never expected that my No. 13 jersey would end up on the top podium!
After hugging Hu Weidong, when the camera showed Dayao, everyone realized that this old man had already burst into tears!
Countless Chinese fans in front of the TV sets also shed tears!
They witnessed with their own eyes that the Chinese men's basketball team reached the pinnacle of the world's basketball world!
And they defeated the American team with their own hands! The incredible dream team!
A new world basketball hegemon is born!
After Durant and Green came back, they immediately slumped in their seats, looking so numb that they couldn't believe that this was the final result of the game.
