Chapter 521: A Historic Moment

In the last 51 seconds, Aito Garcia called a timeout, looking impatient and very angry.

Lin Yu's outburst caught Spain off guard, but in fact, this last-minute outburst was Lin Yu's plan or plan.

He knew that with the strength of the men's basketball team, it was impossible to massacre Spain in the first half. All they could do was rely on the personal abilities of him and Dayao to drag the game into the fourth quarter.

Once the game enters the fourth quarter, it is the individual abilities of the superstars that determine the direction of the game, and the men's basketball team with Dayao and Lin Yu has an advantage in the number of superstars.

In terms of the quality of superstars, Lin Yu, who is already competing for the No. 1 position in the league in the NBA, naturally stands out from the crowd.

This three-pointer at the last moment of the game, plus two steals, and even a direct counterattack dunk after the steal, a go-ahead score and a 5-point lead, were enough to prove it all.

Aito-Garcia scratched his head. He chose to use most of the timeout to deploy a smooth offensive strategy to get the points in the next round first.

As for defense, he chose a rough double-team defense and put the focus of zone defense on the outside.

After the timeout, Spain's offense immediately became very stable. The fast-break style disappeared and was replaced by Jose Calderon patiently controlling the ball from the outside.

"Defend! Defend! Defend!"

The fiery atmosphere of Wukesong encouraged all the fans in the stadium to shout defensive slogans in unison.

In the men's basketball team's defense, Lin Yu stayed near the free throw line, and Dayao went deep into the basket. The Spanish team quickly showed their cooperation, with continuous high pick-and-roll screens and empty-handed cuts.

After Gasol set a pick-and-roll for Calderon, he immediately went down to the low post, turned and blocked, and then received Calderon's pass.

"Pau Gasol's low post play now depends on the UAE."

The Arab League's defense obviously couldn't stop Dajia. Dajia just swayed to the left, then turned around and layup, making an easy hit.

Aito Garcia clapped his hands and the score jumped to 99:96. Spain was only 3 points behind.

The next most important thing is Spain's defense.

Spain's offensive round consumed as much as 19 seconds, and there were only 32 seconds left in the game. One round for the men's basketball team and one round for Spain.

Yunus used the last timeout in his hand without hesitation.

"We only need one goal to kill the game, so who will take the last goal?"

Yunus glanced at Dayao, and then turned his attention to Lin Yu.

"Let me do it."

Lin Yu felt that this was a problem that did not need to be considered. He had already controlled the last moment of the game, and the last ball should naturally be controlled by him.

"It's very simple. Give me two pick-and-rolls, one from Brother Yao and one from Ah Lian. Dapeng will stand in the corner, and Brother Wei will go to the top of the key. The four people on the court except me are all ready.

You can catch the ball at any time and leave the rest to me."

Yunas' eyes were suspicious.

But Dayao clapped his hands: "Just follow Dayu's tactics. He has been the NBA's best kill king in recent seasons. We have no problem!"

Now, Yunas had nothing to say.

Although, he prefers to leave the ball to Dayao for two reasons. One is that he is an old-school coach who pays more attention to the inside. The other is that he believes that Spain will strictly guard Lin Yu and give the ball to Dayao.

Yao's treatment will be an unexpected choice and the effect will be better.

But it seemed that Dayao trusted Lin Yu very much.

"Come on, brothers, we are only missing the last goal!"

Reappearing on the stage, Wukesong shouted in unison from the audience:

"come on, come on, come on!"

Everyone knows how important winning this game is to the men's basketball team.

"Now, with a 3-point score gap, in the last 32 seconds, the men's basketball team takes the initiative in this game..."

Wang Shipeng hit the ball from the sideline, and Lin Yu was also worried. After all, serving from the sideline is a worldwide problem.

After receiving the ball, Lin Yu immediately pushed forward along the left road. Dayao and A Lian lined up at the top of the arc and the left three-point line. Liu Wei took his position at the right three-point line. Wang Shipeng also completed the serve from the sideline.

Rushed to the right corner.

However, Lin Yu stopped the ball one step past the center line.

FIBA's offense is a 30-second round, which means that the men's basketball team has a lot of time, and the most correct decision is to use every effort to consume time.

The three-point lead is the biggest advantage the men's basketball team has, and it is also what Spain is most anxious about.

Rudy Fernandez, who was guarding Lin Yu, kept reaching out, seemingly not caring that if he fouled, he might give Lin Yu two free throw opportunities.

And giving fouls to a player like Lin Yu whose free throw shooting percentage is close to 100% is equivalent to giving points.

There is no way, the situation in Spain at this moment has reached an urgent stage.

Lin Yu, however, controlled the ball very steadily and waited for time to pass.

"In the last 22 seconds, Dayu was still waiting... In the last 17 seconds, there was still no movement... In the last 12 seconds, Dayu, he moved!"

In the last 12 seconds, the men's basketball team only had the last 10 seconds of attack time left.

Lin Yu finally started, and Rudy Fernandez was quite smart. With little attack time, he chose to end the press and give up space to guard against Lin Yu's upcoming singles.

However, he obviously still underestimated Lin Yu's speed. In just the first step, he almost failed to keep up and his steps began to stagger.

Then, Dayao's cover came between him and Lin Yu, and he was completely out of position.

Spain's supplementary defense was like a sudden increase in fire, and with a bang, it exploded to Lin Yu's side.

Felipe Reyes was the first to arrive, but the second cover from the United Arab Emirates immediately provided Lin Yu with a loose offensive space.

He can shoot and continue to break through.

Navarro's defense came quickly. Everyone thought that Lin Yu would continue to break through, because Spain's defense was already in pieces. If he continued to break through, Spain's defense would continue to be dismembered until there was no scum left.

However, before Navarro appeared, Lin Yu suddenly stopped, jumped up, and just voted.

"With two pick-and-rolls, Spain's defense was completely in chaos... Dayu stopped suddenly and took action directly!"

The basketball jumped over Navarro, who was a step slower, and headed towards the basket.

The arc is very high and the speed is very fast. The decisive moment happens in the next second.

Everyone heard a swish sound!

boom!

Wukesong erupted, and the crazy cheers made Lin Yu think that he was in the hottest home energy plan in the NBA at this time. This was not like the momentum that domestic fans could create.

But he no longer wanted to waste his thoughts on this matter, because the moment the ball scored, his teammates from the men's basketball team rushed forward.

"The ball went in, a two-pointer! The men's basketball team took a 5-point lead with less than 6 seconds left in the game. There were only 6 seconds left before they won the game!"

"This is a historic moment. The men's basketball team is about to defeat the powerful Spanish team. They are going to make history! They are the most powerful Chinese men's basketball team in the history of FIBA!"

Although the game is not over yet, on the court, several main players of the men's basketball team have already celebrated with high-fives, hugs and even chest bumps.

The referee also blew the whistle, and Aito Garcia called another timeout.

But everyone knows that this pause is only symbolic.

In the last less than 6 seconds and with a 5-point gap, it was impossible for Spain to reverse this game!

This means that the men's basketball team has made history!

The second best team in the group, as long as they pass the first knockout round, they will be among the top four in the Olympics. The goal of securing sixth place has already been achieved, and it seems that the fourth place is not far away. So what about an Olympic medal?

Director Zhang in the commentary box was already shouting: "The winners of Croatia in the first round, Lithuania and Greece in the second round, let alone the finals, we already have a great chance to win an Olympic medal! And it's big."

The probability is that it will be a silver medal!”
