Chapter 354 Dream Eight
Ji Guoqiu grabbed the rebound and passed it to Nash quickly, who turned around and launched a quick counterattack.
Triano originally wanted to call a timeout, but as soon as he saw the two brothers quickly follow up, Nash took the lead and transformed into the Son of Wind and ran wildly, and immediately changed his mind.
In the last ten seconds of the game, Canada did not call a timeout.
Argentina's return to defense was slower, which was the biggest mistake they made in the whole game!
They thought that even if they couldn't make the attack this time, Canada would have to suspend the arrangement of the last attack, but they didn't expect that the three Canadian giants were all impatient and immediately ran away when they got the basketball. No matter how many seconds he had left, he would have a chance to launch a quick counterattack on the spot!
D'Antoni in front of the TV was very pleased at this moment. Although he had just been kicked away by the Suns management, being able to see his proud disciple reaching the finals with his ideas on the Olympic stage is also a kind of comfort for him. These people who have their own ideas and can be determined are actually worthy of respect.
Who said "running and bombing" is the last tactic? If it weren't for bad luck, Mr. D'Antoni had already got the ring, and sometimes he was just a little bit of luck!
Nash's fast break has indeed penetrated into his bones. No one can follow him. Feng Zhizi staged a one-stop fast break, without passing the ball at all, and made a layup directly.
There are 6 seconds left in the game, and Canada's attack took only 4 seconds. It's fast enough. Chinese fans and Canadian fans are cheering, but after watching the game time, I found that Nash's attack seemed to be too far away. They also left the Argentinian 6 seconds, and the opponent still has a chance to win!
The score was 89:87, Canada was more than one quarter behind. Finally, it surpassed the score again 6 seconds before the end of the game.
However, Argentina still has 6 seconds of offensive time. They can choose to score two points and play overtime, or bet on three points to compete for the final kill!
Fernandez's head hurts a little, this is another multiple-choice question, and there are only two answers this time. Should I win the final or overtime?
The Argentine coach thought for a moment, glanced at Ginobili, and chose to let the players make the decision.
If you are away, the king will not be able to accept it. The stadium is like a battlefield, and opportunities are fleeting. When there are no stars, of course, the coach should be arranged in detail. However, when there are stars, the stars can make their own judgments based on the situation.
This time, the whole Argentina team covered Ginobili. After receiving the ball, the Demon Sword did not rush into the inside to attack. The last breakthrough layup missed on him. Ginobili deliberately avoided the inside guard by the two brothers this time, and used his specialty backward step to jump into a three-pointer - choosing the final kill!
However, the big bald man chose to avoid it, but the little fox took the initiative to find it. The two brothers knew that this attack was either for Ginobili, the core of the outside, or for Scola, the core of the inside. In short, looking at these two players who are most threatening, Argentina has nothing to rely on.
Ji Guomomoto rushed to the outside line. Ginobili was shocked when he saw the dead fox rushing over, and then Aaron Donakamp stretched out his arms to block his sight. This goal was extremely difficult, and it was purely luck to score!
"Bang!"
The basketball hit the basket hard on the neck and bounced high.
Ginobili's luck was obviously not enough, and this time he failed. In fact, the so-called success rate of winning is very low, and the number of failures is far more than success. However, everyone remembered those winning numbers, but forgot that the number of failures is more.
Ji Guoqiu grabbed two at the basket, jumped up and grabbed the rebound on Scola and Oberto's heads, and then hugged the basketball tightly in his arms.
Oberto immediately fouled, the fifth foul by the Spurs center, and he was sent off at the last moment of the game.
The two brothers looked at the timer, with 1.2 seconds left in the game, with a score of 89:87. They completely won the game by hitting both free throws.
"Haha, I didn't make it!" Ji Guomo was shocked just now. The final kill was so heart-testing. If they were blinded by a bald man, their efforts in one game would be in vain.
Ginobili's face turned pale. This ball was affected by Ji Guomo who rushed out of the inside. This dead fox deserves to be damn!
Xi Dada and the future Mother of China applauded the two brothers in the audience. The fans in the stadium had already shouted "mvp, mvp!" in unison. Chinese fans learned this from more than a thousand Canadian fans who came from afar. These guys learned this from Clippers fans. As for whom the Clippers fans learned this from, Los Angeles fans said that the boss was the real "mvp".
Ji Guoqiu has never had much pressure on free throws. This is their home court. No one uses spiral posters to interfere with them. The giant pandas easily hit two free throws, completely announcing the Argentinian's death penalty!
In fact, even if they miss these two free throws, Argentina has no hope of turning the tables. They have no timeouts. 1.2 seconds is not enough to transport from the backcourt to the frontcourt before shooting. They have to take the basketball. This kind of half-court shooting is ten times smaller than the success rate of the final kill. Any team that is killed like this must be a bitch in the team with a bad character that is to a certain extent.
Ginobili also knew that the game was over, and he received a basketball throw to the frontcourt with hatred. What made Ji Guomo laugh and cry was that the ball was really hit!
"Damn, you can also get in. Thanks to the boss, you made both free throws, otherwise he wouldn't have brought the game to overtime." Ji Guomo was so scared that he almost flew up when he saw the bald man's hatred blow. He looked at Ginobili, who was also standing stupid, unable to speak.
The referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, and the fans of the two teams in the stadium were still a little unsatisfied. Ginobili's super long-distance shot was also very pitiful. The score was 91:90, and Argentina finally lost the game with a one-point disadvantage.
At the last moment, the Argentinian had a chance to win, but he was not sure about his luck. Canada passed the Olympic finals for the second time in history.
After the game, Canadian players took the initiative to comfort many insane Argentine players. Ginobili's last shot made Argentine players feel that they should be able to play overtime, but looking at the score on the scoreboard, the score of 91:90 clearly told them. The game has ended.
Ji Guomo hesitated for a moment. He stepped forward and patted Ginobili on the shoulder. He didn't know if it was gloating or comforting, but said seriously: "Last time you killed the Americans, we will come here this time. In the final, we will definitely kill Mengba, so don't worry."
Ginobili twitched when he heard this, and didn't know how to respond. Especially when he saw the dead fox smiling, he felt that this guy was not comforting him, but coming to demonstrate.
"Mengba is the strongest dream team in 20 years. You three can't beat them."
"Who said that their inside line is not the best in 20 years, we will beat them from the inside."
Ginobili thought to himself that you were bragging, and sneered, saying, "Then I wish you to defeat Mengba's inside line." After saying that, the bald man was about to take off his clothes and exchange it with Ji Guomo, but found that the dead fox nodded and turned around and left.
The bald Argentine was now red and stood alone, looking at the back of the dead fox. He cursed like a volcano erupted in his heart: "I fuck you, your whole family will be prosperous!"
Ji Guomo wasn't deliberately playing with Ginobili. He really forgot to exchange jerseys, and he was complacent when he was just going back to the bench to celebrate with his teammates, and he found that he was the only one wearing jerseys in the team, and other teammates exchanged jerseys with their opponents.
Of course, the Argentina team has such a guy who is not shirtless now, and a big bald head in the crowd is particularly conspicuous.
After the game, the head coach of the Argentine team showed his spirit. He first congratulated Canada on his advancement, and then said: "We fought for 40 points with them, which is really not easy. Our players had already tried their best at that time. Ginobili had just recovered from injury and was still persisting in his physical overdraw. We regretted losing this game. In general, if you want to win the basketball game, you still rely on your strength. We can lead them until the last minute, but we cannot guarantee that we can still lead by the last second." In the end, Fernandez emphasized: "We regretted the failure to defend the title, but I am still proud of the players. Their efforts and unity are very good. We will make a comeback in the World Championships."
Triano's temperament was obviously much worse. He briefly praised the Argentinian and then turned his attention to his opponents in the finals. The semi-finals between the United States and Spain will be played after the match between Canada and Spain. Now the two teams are ready to start the game in Tianjin.
"The Spanish team is the European champion and I really want to win the championship like their European Cup football team. But the opponent they face is Meng Ba, and this game is destined to be very difficult." Triano's implication is obviously optimistic about the US team. He said: "Since the Dream Team in 1992, I have never seen the US team share such a common hatred. Especially Kobe has been performing his own genius. Their goal is to massacre other teams. If Spain wants to defeat the United States, it must shoot every shot, and to remain calm, all players need to perform exceptionally well."
Another semi-final in Tianjin, the match between the United States and Spain has begun at this moment.
The Americans have indeed been holding back for 8 years. They have been preparing for this Olympic Games for three years and finally arrived at the semi-finals of the Olympics. At present, they have no second idea except for gold medals. Spain is the World Championships champion, but the US team does not allow the Bullfighters to block their own path. They have to kill Spain cleanly and enter the finals in this game.
Since the "Dream Six" team suffered three defeats in the Olympics in 2004 and only won one bronze medal to finish, the United States has not only accepted the fact that the gap in world basketball levels is shrinking, but also began to plan a war of revenge and the formation of the Dream Team. If "Dream Seven", which had only won third place in the World Championships, was a failed test piece, then this "Dream Eight" team is definitely the final finished product of the US team in four years.
Today, this American team has almost gathered the best American players in various positions, each player has an excellent leadership temperament and a strong pursuit of victory. Big-name stars like LeBron James, Kobe Bryant have reached a household name.
On the other hand, it is precisely because of the reasonable personnel selection that the available soldiers in various positions of the team are of high quality and efficiency, which also allows the team head coach to deal with almost all kinds of teams and corresponding tactics when making arrangements on the spot.
Today, the US team faces the world champion Spain in a confrontation with a team with rich tactical literacy and on-site experience. In addition to using breakthroughs as an offensive means to tear open the opponent's defensive lineup, the US team's response policy is also looking for the opponent's weak defense to attack, and uses a large number of outside long shots, putting heavy pressure on star players in defense, and taking the initiative to shorten Reyes, who can get some points, but the role players who are unhelpful in the battle situation eventually take advantage of the opponent's frequent mistakes to make Spain lose a big loss.
Dwyane Wade, who came on as a substitute, scored a game-high 25 points. Kobe Bryant scored 20 points and 5 assists, LeBron James scored 15 points, Anthony scored 13 points, and Chris Paul scored 13 points.
The World Championship champion Spain died this time, with a net loss of 25 points and a shameful defeat in the semi-finals, including Paul Gasol 21 points and 6 rebounds, Marc Gasol 11 points and 5 rebounds, Fernandez scored 12 points, and Navarro 12 points.
The score was 105:80, the US team had a highest lead difference of 35 points, and Spain almost lost even its pants. Although everyone knows that the US team will win, it is impossible for the World Championship champion to lose 25 points so exaggeratedly.
After the game, the reporter asked Wade, who performed best in this game: "Do you think you have become the unrivaled "Flash"?"
Wade replied with a smile: "Absolutely, I never doubt myself. I have returned to what I am today after hard work. I have put in a lot of effort in the gym and keep increasing my burden. I know that as long as I am healthy, everything else is very simple, and just need to play well is enough."
After the competition, Ke teased LeBron James and called him the best blue-collar worker in Mengba, which was full of maliciousness.
James has been very low-key all the way in the Olympics, rarely rushing to show off, but just silently brushing the data and working very hard on the defensive end. He can be called the unknown hero of the Dream Eighth Team. To be honest, although he has brushed a lot of data, the Gorilla has also rushed to do the work that other big names are unwilling to do. From this point of view, although Gorilla likes to throw the blame, he is also willing to give his teammates.
However, the Dead Orangutan always grabbed the inside rebounds and made Howard look depressed. The Happy Beast said that his rebounds were snatched away by the Gorilla and he couldn't be happy at all.
Of course, the US team is not without any hidden dangers. The Spanish team's inside line also played well in this game. The Gasol brothers put a lot of pressure on their opponents. Gasol made 9 of 18 shots and scored 21 points and 6 rebounds, while Gasol Jr. also contributed 11 points and 5 rebounds.
US team center Howard scored 8 points and 5 rebounds, and substitute center Bosh scored only 8 points and 7 rebounds. Both scored more than Gasol. If it weren't for the US team's outside player, Meng Ba would be difficult to get the victory game.
Chapter completed!
