Chapter 93 Historic Breakthrough

"A good goal, the UAE scored the 6th point of this quarter. Yi Jianlian, who had been mediocre in the first three games, was in a hot state in the fourth quarter. He stopped the Lithuanian team with sudden shots. Now the Chinese team has equalized the score. In the last half of the game, the Chinese team successfully started."

After a good shot, Chen Xiao, who had played for 36 minutes in a row, looked as if he had been fished out of the water, but seeing that the strongest teammate finally recovered, he was so happy that he did not forget to encourage and celebrate.

Yi Jianlian, who scored 2 points with 2 shots in the first three quarters, once made the fans think that he didn't come back, so he didn't have this person, but watched the game from the sidelines, taking fewer shots and scoring fewer.

If you don't play any more, you will lose this game, but you will be covered by a big pot.

But it may be because of adapting to the rhythm or accumulating physical fitness. In the fourth quarter, he ushered in an explosion, crushing the Lithuanian veteran Sangaila who also played in the NBA and scored a layup, scoring the 8th point of the game.

Chen Xiao, who has been attacking for 3 consecutive quarters, also took a good rest in the past few minutes, focusing on protecting the frame, assisting defense, and rebounding.

The Chinese team maintained the offensive for a few minutes, both internally and externally. Wang Shipeng scored 3 points, Chen Jianghua broke through and Chen Xiao easily scored a dunk.

In less than the last minute, the Chinese team led their opponent Lithuania by 1 points with a small shock wave of 7:2.

At the moment of the decisive battle, Lithuania, who had a good three-pointer before, finally felt cold at the last moment under the thoughts of the Chinese fans and missed consecutive shots.

Lithuania only scored a goal 2 seconds before the end of the game, breaking the scoring drought of nearly 70 seconds, but it is clear that the Chinese team, which still maintains output in the end, will not be tied by 1 goal.

As the flashing red timer reset to zero, the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game. At this time, the whistle sounded like the sound of nature.

"The game is over! The Chinese team won! The Chinese men's basketball team won! We defeated the strong enemy Lithuania who once gave us a defeat at home.

This ball is destined to be recorded in the history of Chinese basketball. Chen Xiao, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, Zhou Peng, the injured Sun Yue and the players who did not play this game will all be recorded in the record book of Chinese basketball breakthroughs. "Yu Jia, who witnessed the historic moment of the men's basketball team, shouted emotionally.

Although he didn't shout out loud at this time, Yao Ming, whose heart was surging, was as happy as seeing the light in his heart, and was ecstatic for the historic breakthrough.

Success does not depend on me. It is the glory of every basketball player to make a historic breakthrough in the Chinese men's basketball team in the Olympics.

Just like the saying "Success doesn't have to be with me, success must be with me", no one will forget Yao Ming who has paid too much for the men's basketball team.

Seeing that the time was running out and Chen Xiao, who had won the victory, couldn't restrain the ecstasy in his heart. He raised his arms high and celebrated excitedly with every teammate. All the team members crowded into a circle to enjoy this wonderful moment together.

"Happy, excited. We all know that we lost to our opponent at home 4 years ago. I was also watching the game on TV at the time. Now I have the opportunity to personally participate in the process of getting revenge and breaking through to the top 8. As a member of the men's basketball team, I feel very honored."

A word may seem thin, but this is the most direct feeling in the hearts of Chen Xiao, the Chinese men's basketball players and the tens of millions of fans who support them.

If a basketball game or a national team game can bring fans, supporters, and Chinese people a sliver of joy, excitement, and encouragement, then everything is worth it.

……

"In the quarter-finals of the men's basketball team at the London Olympics that ended last night, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated the Lithuanian men's basketball team and entered the top four, achieving a historic breakthrough."

At about 9 o'clock in the evening on the 7th, the viewers who were watching the simulcast saw "Chinese men's basketball team advanced to the semi-finals of the Olympic Games".

For Chinese fans, from the surprise of winning the first game against the strong enemy Spain, to the joy of consecutive victories against Russia and Australia, to the renewed mood of being able to qualify for the first and consecutive defeats.

In the end, it was the ecstasy of Lectra's old rival, successful revenge, and a historic breakthrough.Had the most amazing trip to the Olympics.

……

In the early morning of August 8, the Chinese men's basketball team, which entered the semi-finals, reunited with Spain, an old rival.

Previously, in the 8-to-4 game, Spain came from behind, forcing the opponent France to score no points in more than 6 minutes in the final quarter, and finally advanced to the top 7 with a 4-point advantage.

The Chinese men's basketball players who were so excited after defeating Lithuania also watched the game. At the last moment, when the French team failed to recover, French Pippen Batum punched Navarro in the abdomen, which almost killed Navarra. It almost triggered the first group fight in this Olympic men's basketball game.

I'm so stupid to show Chen Xiao directly, so you are such a boss?

After the game, the media also criticized the French team mainly for Batum's lack of Olympic spirit.

Going back to the Chinese men's basketball team meeting against Spain again, the result of this game did not repeat the results of the group's first match as Chinese fans expected.

Spain, which put up a 2-3 zone defense in the first quarter, found out after a little testing that the Chinese team's outside touch was mediocre, and placed the twin towers in front of Chen Xiao. Xiaojia's stocky chassis elusively cut the ball, and Dajia's long arms covered the sky, and tacitly supplemented the defense.

The tacit understanding is extraordinary, and the Spanish players who are instructing like arms move the defense to make the Chinese men's basketball team exhausted.

It seems that Pau Gasol, who returned to the finals in 09 and 10, has achieved the ultimate in all aspects. On the offensive end, is Yi Jianlian in front of him?beat!In front of him is Chen Xiao?Hit too!Facing Chen Xiao's defense, a 180-degree running hook from bottom to bottom shocked everyone, as if telling Chen Xiao, don't think that you are the only one who can hook.At the same time, frequent shots were fired from medium and long distances, so that the Chinese men's basketball team could not relax in the slightest.

Marc Gasol's brilliance was completely concealed under the radiant performance of his radiant brother, but he did a good job in top defense, protected rebounds, and occasionally scored 2 points with cold shots.

With the full force of the sisters-in-law and the blessing of FIBA ​​rules, it was the first time that Chen Xiao encountered such a top-level defense, and fell into a hard fight.

In the end, Spain, which had been suppressing all the time, successfully maintained its advantage until the last moment of the game, and won the opponent with a big score of 73:55, avenging the first battle.

奥运6场以来场均能贡献超过25分的陈逍全场出手14次，仅命中7次，得到19分15篮板，首次得分在20分以下。

For other teammates, Yi Jianlian failed to perform as bravely as he did in the first game, and it can't be said that he didn't try his best with 11 points and 8 rebounds. The 35-year-old Dazhi scored 6 points and cannot be harshly criticized.

Each of the 6 outsiders with inaccurate shooting only scored 2 points, 3 points, and 4 points. The poor shooting contribution from the outside made the situation unsustainable.
